Chapter Ninety-Three: The God of Waves

"This game is our fourth, we won two and lost one of the first three games, this game, keep the form of the first two games, win the game!" Popovich's chicken soup today is much simpler, and everyone knows that the Knicks are the weaker team in the East. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The starting line-up for this game was adjusted, and Jonathan Simmons was promoted to the starting line-up!

This made Jiang Haoran stunned, what the hell, he didn't start once.

Perhaps such a bold rotation is a testament to the depth of the team's bench?

Everyone came to the court to warm up, Jiang Haoran saw the bald head of the old fish Fisher at a glance, he has now changed from a player to the coach of the New York Knicks, or the new president of the Knicks, Phil Jackson, who went to hire him personally, and signed a five-year, $25 million head coach contract.

Turning around and looking at the white-haired old man Bobo, no matter how you look at it, Zhuge is reliable.

Jiang Haoran will play against Vujacic and substitute Lance Thomas in this game, not a big name, if you want to play point guard, you will play against Calderon, a traditional European point guard.

"So Popovich should have hidden Jiang Haoran's big killing weapon." That's the guess of TNT's famous sideline journalist sager.

Because if the average coach would definitely think that Jiang Haoran's offensive firepower is so sufficient, wouldn't it be okay to change it to attack and win?

But Popovich did the opposite, and the strongest outside spear break allowed Simmons to get used to the rhythm of the real game.

The first quarter of the game is on! Madison's home atmosphere ignited, and Jiang Haoran easily nibbled on bubble gum at the end of the bench.

But soon the Spurs were caught off guard by the Knicks.

Jiang Haoran's bubblegum also came to an abrupt end, and after ten minutes of play, the Spurs fell behind by 13 points at 25-12?

All of this comes from the fact that the white man on the inside is big, running and jumping and can shoot three-pointers, and the offensive and defensive ends are simply against the sky.

Jiang Haoran also just noticed this super rookie, and only through the introduction of the assistant coach next to him did he know how terrifying this player was, and he was called a god by the fans in his rookie year!

Kristaps Porzingis! Boshen! Averaged 12 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks per game!

With a height of 2.21 meters and an arm span of 2.286 meters, but a weight of only 104.3 kilograms, he was selected by the New York Knicks with the 4th pick in the first round.

Jiang Haoran found that Porzingis is simply too suitable for this league, the traditional center of this league is dying, but the 2.21-meter-tall Boshen is no slower than a small forward because of his light weight, and he always plays the role of the last to wreak havoc on the basket in the fast break.

"I feel sorry for Tim." Bonner next to him couldn't stand it, and Jiang Haoran couldn't stand it even more, this was purely bullying the old man.

Duncan's speed is not at all comparable to that of the 20-year-old Porzingis, and the bounce is even more incomparable, and he can fight in front of his body, but Boshen does not play with his back, and specializes in shooting three-pointers and breaking through with the ball.

This is terrifying, imagine that a big man of 2.21 meters pulls to shoot outside the three-point line, and has a shooting rate of more than 50%, who can stop his eyes?

If Duncan pulls out to defend, Boshen will break through directly, and Duncan's old legs can only foul except for fouls.

Anthony saw that the newcomers in the team were so cheating and played hard, and he beat Simmons, the rookie who was the second best player in the Spurs' body.

Popovich frequently changed players within eight minutes, using the flexible dead fat type of hanging brother defense, and using the tough man West to defend this European tall man, but either the speed could not keep up or the height could not be compared, and all of them were blown up.

So far, the Spurs' offensive rebounds are 0-6, and the defensive rebounds are completely blown out.

"We see that the Spurs will show fatigue when they encounter a young system that restrains them, and we wonder what strategy Coach Bobo will have?" ESPN's commentary began to worry about the Spurs, whose habitual choice of a responsive center also led to the center's poor running and jumping ability, and the defense was not timely after multiple transitions.

No matter how much Popovich scolded on the sidelines, they couldn't run a point faster.

Some people will ask, why didn't the Spurs choose a strong running and jumping interior to increase their rim protection ability? This goes back to the old saying: well-developed limbs, simple minds, you can't have both fish and bear's paws, and generally tall, fierce and able to jump have little passing ability, let alone the big picture, please see Jordan Jr. and Big McGee for details.

Jiang Haobai was stunned when he saw the score on the court, this is the real NBA! A team he had never seen a win on TV beat the Western Conference giants to the ground.

Until the end of the first quarter, Bobo's two timeouts and four substitutions had little effect, trailing by 14 points!

Duncan didn't speak, and Ade didn't speak, both of them were impersonated by Porzingis, and Ade was still impersonated while shaking off his opponent.

"Ginger comes on the court, replaces Simmons, the right side of the main defense, wraps Porzingis, you must be fast and accurate, his dribble arc is high, use your stealing ability! Kawaii plays the right side, helps Duncan protect the frame, and grabs the rebound! Popovich was finally going to sacrifice Jiang Haoran, Jiang Haoran hurriedly looked at the tactical board carefully, it turned out that he was asked not to let Porzingis shoot, this may be the only way, if Porzingis lifts the ball up, Jiang Haoran can't grab the ball no matter how much he jumps.

"But this is just a tactic to slow down the opponent's offensive tempo, don't forget that there is an All-Star forward on the other side, we have to stop the battle!"

"Ending the war with war?"

"Yes, in the second quarter, Jiang Haoran served as the offensive firepower point, there was a vacant three-point decisive shot, and there was a single opportunity to play alone, don't take into account the physical strength, the ball was quickly dribbled for me! Catch up with the score! Popovich roared, not mentioning the inside line at all.

The scolding on the sidelines just now is ugly enough, and it's useless for these old guys to scold more.

"Attack against attack, I don't believe that a rookie can overturn us?" Popovich threw the tactical board on his seat, his face grim.

Usually this kind of expression is the time when you really want to be ruthless.

And the commentary in South Korea is a bit anxious, since Jiang Haoran joined the Spurs, the Spurs are equivalent to the home team of South Korea, seeing that the first quarter fell behind by so many points, the commentary couldn't sit still, why not let Jiang Haoran play?

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, at the beginning of the second quarter, Jiang Haoran appeared in the lineup.

"Hey, dude, show you the strength of the top five in the draft!" Porzingis came to the field from the home team's seat, lowered his head and smiled as he passed by Jiang Haoran.
