Chapter 152 Flowers need green leaves to set off (510)

"Cory, calm down, pay attention to the positioning of James and me. Tim is too intimidating on the inside. The outside is our opportunity. The old man is a player who likes to play with his brain." Tang Tian went to Joseph at this time and said. reminded.

After Joseph's first ball was taken by Duncan, he has been desperately breaking through to score.

Tang Tian knew that he was trying to prove himself in front of Popovich, but performance was not just about scoring. His words were a timely reminder.

"I see." Joseph nodded, he was indeed a little crazy just now.

Duncan is holding the ball in the high position. He has not looked at the basket. Obviously, he does not want to abuse the team's benches too much. At the beginning of the season, players' self-confidence is still very important.

Duncan responded from the free throw line, and the ball was given to Green who made an empty cut.

Green's flying layup.

But the moment he shot, Tang Tian jumped up from behind him and slapped his hand out of the field.

"Oh!" Ginobili was the first to exclaim from the sidelines.

"A beautiful defense." Budenholzer praised.

The performance of the bench team is not satisfactory, but if you want to talk about the only bright spot, it is probably only Tang Tian's defense.

Green smiled wryly at Tang Tian at this time.

Tang Tian also responded with a smile, Green is a good person off the court, but what he says on the court has nothing to do with the off court.

The sideline ball from the starting group was sent out. Tang Tian followed Green closely and refused to give a chance. Duncan and Parker didn't want to attack. The ball was given to Jefferson. Jefferson broke through and squeezed away Anderson's tough layup. The two seem to be on a completely different level of confrontation.

"We changed the defense. Green spends most of the time on the three-point line, just follow him and don't get thrown off." Tang Tian went over to Anderson at this time and said.

Anderson nodded, he was hit hard by Jefferson just now, and he is not as tall as Tang Tian.

The offense of the bench group was still the same tactic, Joseph charged in with the ball.

The players in the starting group all shrunk in. Joseph was so reckless in the previous few rounds, and they had gotten used to it.

But at this moment the situation changed suddenly, after Joseph got to the basket, he chose to score the ball!

The ball was distributed to Tang Tian, ​​Tang Tian caught the ball, and after Green reacted, he flew to catch the ball.

"A good defense." Budenholzer gave another evaluation.

Green had relatively few chances to play for the Spurs last season, and only played 8 games in total. This season, because of George Hill's departure, the bench lacked firepower. Popovich intended to put Ginobili back on the bench. Green In the limited time last season, he showed the potential of a 3D player, so he got a starting opportunity.

Judging from this defense, Popovich's decision is still very wise.

But in the next second, something unexpected happened to Budenholzer.

Tang Tian's shot was a fake move. When Green rushed over, he took the ball and dribbled to the side. After Green flew past, he aimed at the frame and shot.

"Shua!"

The three-pointer hit the net.

Tang Tian finally helped the bench team break the scoring drought!

"Not bad." Popovich said at this time.

Facing the defense without rushing back, Tang Tian's performance like this suits him very well.

Joseph was also a little excited after seeing the goal, and turned around to give Tang Tian a high-five.

"He can drive his teammates." Budenholzer continued to speak, and he also saw Tang Tian talking to Joseph earlier.

The starting group advanced to the frontcourt, and Parker was emptied outside the three-point line. He hesitated and didn't shoot. He gave the ball to Duncan, and Duncan continued to stuff the ball to Jefferson.

"Snapped!"

But at this moment, Tang Tian suddenly rushed out from Jefferson's side, and directly broke the ball!

Duncan's thoughts were guessed by Tang Tian. He had already passed the ball to Jefferson and Green in succession before, and he predicted the next pass.

Tang Tian steals the ball and gives it to Joseph, who counterattacks with the ball.

After Tang Tian lost weight, his footsteps were fast, and he followed Joseph's fast break immediately.

Joseph had no chance to be caught up by Parker. After he calmed down, he didn't choose to force him. He turned around and saw Tang Tian who was following up, and he threw the ball out with his hands.

Tang Tian catches the ball and makes a quick shot before Jefferson catches up.

A summer of hard training made his shooting speed increase rapidly, and Jefferson didn't catch up at all.

"Shua!"

The ball went hollow again into the net.

Tang Tian scored two three-pointers in a row!

Ginobili has already whistled from the sidelines.

With two successful defenses and two three-pointers in a row, the overall strength of the bench team was weak, but it perfectly highlighted Tang Tian's strength.

Jefferson went to the frontcourt and asked for the ball with his back against Tang Tian. This was for a singles.

Parker gave the ball in.

At this time, Tang Tian sank his weight to push Jefferson.

Jefferson pushed a few times but failed to go in.

He looked muscular, but his weight was actually about the same as before Tang Tian lost weight, and after Tang Tian lost weight and gained muscle, the confrontation didn't drop much.

Jefferson was a little surprised by Tang Tian's confrontation. He wanted to turn around and break through, but Tang Tian snatched his position first. In the end, he could only choose to turn around and lean back.

Tang Tian's reaction was quick, and he immediately saved it to cause interference.

"boom!"

Jefferson's shot was interfered and missed, and Diop caught Blair at this time and received a defensive rebound.

The substitute team defended again.

"I'll defend." Back on the defensive end, Jefferson took the initiative to ask Green to switch defenses.

Jefferson defended Tang Tian all the way and didn't give him a chance. Joseph gave it to Anderson. Anderson's shot was missed by Green's interference, and Duncan received the rebound from the basket.

Looking back at Parker and Duncan's pick-and-roll, Diop and Joseph's defensive attention was all attracted by Duncan who rolled down, and Anderson was forced to shrink to the basket to defend.

Parker, a green who doesn't look the pass and throws the ball to the weak side.

"Snapped!"

But at this moment, it was Tang Tian again, he suddenly rushed out from the side, making consecutive steals!

His hard work on dynamic vision finally paid off. Parker's pass was unexpected enough, but he still caught it.

The substitute team played a fast break again, and this time Joseph received a pass from Tang Tian and scored a fast break layup.

After a wave of 10-0 offensive, the substitute group returned to the starting group for a wave of 8-0!

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Ginobili had realized that he had fallen in love with Tang Tian at this moment.

"He has the ability to play in the rotation." Budenholzer gave a very high evaluation when he saw this.

Popovich nodded, but he was thinking bolder than Budenholzer.

Tang Tian can defend the second and third positions, and has a stable three-pointer. He seems to be more suitable for starting than Green?

This is Popovich, who will never waste a good seed, even if he is just a rookie.
