Standing on the NBA's free throw line for the first time, coupled with the fact that the free throw was not stable, Li Yang's free throw failed to hit, so that the difference between the two teams stopped at 19 points, and in less than a minute after the third quarter, both sides were unable to complete the offense, and the 19-point difference was maintained until the end of the third quarter. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

86:67, with a 19-point advantage, the Spurs easily entered the fourth quarter, and Li Yang continued to stay on the court, but in this period, the Nets attached great importance to his defense, and Popovich deliberately adjusted his tactics, Li Yang got a lot fewer opportunities than before.

However, in the three minutes of playing in the fourth quarter, Li Yang still got a chance to break fast, scored 2 points, and increased his score to double digits.

With the excellent performance of Li Yang and other substitutes, the Spurs held their advantage in the early part of the fourth quarter, and when they sent their main players, the point difference widened again.

At 102:77, when the game came to the fourth quarter with about four minutes left, the Spurs widened the margin to 25 points and announced the end of the game.

In the last four minutes, when the main players were all out of the court, Li Yang got four minutes of playing time again, and in these four minutes, Li Yang got two chances to shoot, but only hit one, and one layup failed to hit under the interference of the opponent.

The goal Li Yang missed was also the first goal he conceded in these three games.

At 111:88, the Spurs won the game at home by 23 points, and it was also their third consecutive game of big victory.

In this game, Li Yang got 12 minutes of playing time, 6 of 7 shots, 0 of 1 free throws, 12 points, 2 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, and 1 turnover.

In this game, Li Yang did not block, but his data is still very eye-catching, which is naturally the reason why Popovich's tactics are effective, but at the same time, his breakthrough ability is also an important factor.

For Spurs fans, they obviously didn't think carefully about Li Yang's performance in this game because of the team's tactics or because of Li Yang's own ability, what they saw was Li Yang's continuous highlight performances on the court, as well as his excellent statistics after the game.

So just after the game, Li Yang became the object of discussion among local hardcore Spurs fans in the United States.

The Spurs' play is too stable, and no one else seems to have any topics, and Li Yang's appearance undoubtedly made Spurs fans find a topic.

"Should Li Yang be signed after the second short contract expires?"

This topic has become the hottest topic in the Spurs fan forum, and after the game against the Nets, the support rating has also increased from 62% in the previous days to 81%.

"If I could, I would be willing to change the answer I chose in the first two days, Li Yang's performance in this game conquered me, he has the ability to tear through the opponent's defense, he can create more opportunities for our team's pitchers, it will take the burden off Tony and Manu, there is no doubt that we should keep him with a contract. ”

In the last three games, Li Yang can average 10 points per game, and his playing time is only 10 minutes per game, in all his offenses, only one ball is missed, he constantly attacks the basket, can also fight for rebounds, defense, and even assists. While his shooting looked terrible, he never shot from mid-to-long range, he missed his only free throw, and he rarely shot during his time with the Austin Bulls, there was still no reason to let such a great young player go. ”

The hardcore Spurs fans in the United States are very professional, and even some fans know the development league very well, they have a clear grasp of Li Yang's technical characteristics, but they still support the Spurs to sign Li Yang.

In China, because the Spurs have always been low-key, their fans are much smaller than those high-profile teams, and they are not as active, and most of the fans and media's attention is attracted by the upcoming All-Star Weekend, so Li Yang's performance has not caused too much discussion on the Internet.

However, in the Tiger Spurs area, whether Li Yang can be signed by the Spurs has also become one of the most concerned issues for Chinese Spurs fans.

Of course, it is Li Yang himself who is most concerned about this issue.

Getting such a good opportunity to play in the game against the Nets undoubtedly made Li Yang breathe a little relieved, and the performance in this game was different from his performance in the game against the Bobcats, and to some extent, Li Yang played a key role in the Spurs winning the game.

However, Li Yang also knows very well that if it were not for Popovich's intentional arrangement, it would be difficult for him to get the data in the game against the Nets and against the Bobcats, which is why he can't completely put his mind at ease.

After staying in Spurs for half a month, Li Yang is very aware of his shortcomings, although his advantages are obvious, but his shortcomings are also very prominent, if Spurs will keep him, it is naturally what Li Yang wants to see the most.

But if the Spurs choose not to sign with him, Li Yang will not be too surprised, because the Spurs' goal this season is the playoffs, that is, to break out of the West and reach the finals again, and even lift the championship trophy.

In this case, the only remaining spot in the team is very important, and if the Spurs choose to give up on themselves in order to strengthen the immediate combat power, or to add a player that the team desperately needs, Li Yang believes that it is not impossible.

And now, the choice is in the Spurs, and what Li Yang can do is wait, wait for the news of the Spurs, and wait for the end of the ten-day short contract.

............

San Donianio, Li Yang, who returned here, started to head to the training gym from Leonard's house in the suburbs after breakfast in the morning. But today, Li Yang is not with Leonard, but alone.

The All-Star Weekend in Houston is about to begin, and several members of the Spurs are going to participate in the All-Star Weekend this year, including head coach Popovich, who is the coach of the Western All-Star team, so naturally he is going to participate, and Duncan and Parker are both selected as All-Stars, and they are going to participate in the All-Star Game, and Parker is going to participate in the Skills Challenge.

In addition to that, Leonard needs to go to the Rookie Challenge, and Bonner needs to go to the three-point contest.

For NBA players, whether they can participate in All-Star Weekend or not, this week's rest is invaluable, except for these few days, they hardly have such a long break during the season, and the NBA schedule is still very dense.

However, Li Yang did not choose to rest, he still went to the training gym to train as usual, and with a few days left on his contract, he had to seize this opportunity to impress the Spurs management.

When Leonard left, he left his old Chevrolet behind, and Li Yang just had the means to travel.

"Hey, Yang!"

Li Yang drove all the way to the training hall, parked the car and was just about to go to the training hall, Danny Green came, and Li Yang simply waited for the other party to be together.

"Well, Yang, has RC talked to you about signing a contract?"

The two walked towards the training hall together, and Danny Green asked actively. Danny Green is a completely different person from Leonard, having captained the basketball team at the University of North Carolina and is very good at communicating with others.

"Nope. Li Yang shook his head, remembering that Danny Green was also signed by the Spurs in the Development League at that time, and he asked curiously: "Danny, what kind of experience was it when you were signed by the Spurs, then cut, and finally signed by the Spurs." ”

"Spurs released me from my contract just two days after signing me, and then they gave me some advice. Danny Green replied, his tone a little excited, as if the experience was very interesting.

"You know, I felt really bad at the time, it was the second time I was cut by an NBA team, and before that, the Cavaliers. At that time, my agent suggested that I play overseas, and I knew that he was worried that I would be hit and wanted me to regain my confidence, but I refused, I thought I was strong enough. ”

"I stayed in the Development League, I was working my defense and three-pointers following the advice that the Spurs coaching staff gave me at the time, and then one day, I got Bill, oh, my agent, and he said, Danny, great news, the Spurs contacted me, and they wanted you to be a part of the Spurs. ”

Danny Green's voice was even more excited when he said this: "Young, you know what, it was a great feeling, really, really good, more excited than when I was drafted to the NBA, and I asked Bill over and over again, really? Is this true?"

And then I got an affirmative answer, oh, I still remember how excited I was. Danny Green said, turning his head to look at Li Yang again.

"Yang, no matter what, keep up the fighting spirit and positive attitude, the team of RC and POP is the best uniform group in this world, they will see your efforts. ”

"Of course!" Li Yang smiled and nodded, "That's why I appeared here." ”

Danny Green didn't speak again, but gave Li Yang a thumbs up.

"Danny, Young, good morning!" the two continued to walk forward, and as they walked through the passage leading to the team's management office, RC Buford's figure appeared in the passage and greeted the two.

"Good morning, RC!" Li Yang and Green responded almost simultaneously.

RC Buford smiled, and his eyes fell on Li Yang, "Yang, are you going to practice?" but I'm sorry, I think I'm afraid I'll have to delay you for some time. ”
