The Fifth Point Guard

Mark Lodge and Robinson compete for the ball in the air at the same time.

Although Mark Lodge is full of vigor, Robinson, who has a height of 2.16 meters and a wingspan of 2.24 meters, has an inherent advantage.

Although he is 36 years old, the muscle lines of Robinson's arms are still scary.

The Spurs took the lead in grabbing the offense.

As soon as Parker got the ball, he was stunned by the huge cheers on the court.

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

No matter which team has the strongest atmosphere at home, the Continental Arena is the only one.

In addition to the league's first record, there is also a huge Chinese fan group and press corps.

Netball tickets are now hard to come by.

The Spurs handed the ball to Duncan on the first attack.

Martin defends.

A direct confrontation between the two No. 1 picks.

Duncan's figure is slightly thinner than Martin's, but Duncan's back-to-back attack is very effective.

Step by step closer to the basket.

After bumping into Martin's chest with his left shoulder, Duncan turned around on the spot, swayed Martin's contradictory, lightly put the basket with one hand, and scored the first goal for the Spurs.

0-2

The Nets' opening routine tactics often start with chicken.

Kidd and Martin skillfully pick-and-roll, Duncan blocked in front of Kidd, but Parker has been out of position.

Facing Duncan's defense, Kidd hoisted the ball to the basket, and Martin jumped up directly.

He suffocated and prepared to catch the ball with one hand and dunk, but Duncan suddenly stretched out his long arm and dialed Kidd's pass.

The ball changed direction and bounced off the backboard. Robinson hugged the rebound and immediately passed it to Parker.

The 1.88-meter French sports car starts quickly.

Although the dribble was a little wobbly, Parker's speed was so fast that Kidd couldn't even catch up.

Jefferson, who returned to defense early, jumped up to block the shot, but Parker dexterously wiped the board with a reverse hook, and the ball stumbled into the basket.

0-4

Although the Nets' home momentum is like a rainbow, the Spurs do not seem to be affected in the slightest, and they gave the home team a blow at the beginning.

Popovich sat on the sidelines, as stable as Mount Tai, gently shaking the paper fan, with an expression of sitting on a mountain and watching a tiger fight.

Martin once again hit Duncan inside, but was interfered by Duncan's long arm and went out of the basket. This time it was Bowen who grabbed the defensive rebound.

Although both are the No. 1 pick, but judging from the two rounds of fighting, Duncan's strength is obviously higher.

Kidd shouted: "Attention everyone, defend your position and don't let them transfer the ball easily."

Shen Tong defended Smith.

This guy hasn't touched the ball since the start.

Parker held the ball from the outside, Duncan stepped forward to do a pick-and-roll, the French sports car immediately started, stepped on the accelerator and went straight to 200 yards!

The flexible Frenchman broke into the inside, but this time he was firmly locked in the defensive range by Kidd.

With no room for a shot at all, Parker broke through and scored.

Bowen in the bottom corner received the ball, and Jefferson missed it!

The action is not good-looking, and the arc is very flat, but Bowen's three-pointer still hits the basket.

0-7

It all looked shaky, but the Spurs made all three of their possessions.

Scott, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help scratching his forehead.

The most worrying thing is this kind of team.

No matter who they meet, they can put the ball into the basket calmly, and continue their rhythm unshakably.

Young people like the Nets, if they follow the rhythm of the Spurs, they will surely die!

Scott crossed his arms and insisted on another round. If the score is further drawn, it must be called a timeout.

Shentong got the ball!

The momentum that had just been extinguished by the Spurs' 7-0 wave immediately revived again!

Whistling, cheering, applause, and shouts erupted almost simultaneously.

Spurs assistant coach Hank Egan looked around the court and couldn't help saying: "I didn't expect this Chinese guy to be so popular in New Jersey. He just got the ball and there was so much cheering."

Popovich didn't take it seriously, and said, "Look, Hank, Bruce will teach him how to play well."

I will teach this young man from China a lesson!

Shentong held the ball, and the Spurs took the initiative to pull away.

Why?

Even Nets coach Scott couldn't understand it.

Bowen played one-on-one and defended Shentong.

This is simply to give Shentong enough space for singles.

There is no need to hesitate, Shen Tong directly bent his body and began to punch back.

Bao Wen put his hands on Shen Tong's waist, and kept pushing forward, retracting, pushing, retracting.

This repeated temptation will not be called a foul.

Shen Tong feinted to the left, then turned right, and made a turnaround jumper.

What Ling Shentong didn't expect was that just after he took off, Bowen seemed to have a complete insight into his shooting method, and he had already jumped up to block his shot.

Popovich's face trembled slightly, and one corner of his mouth was raised.

Shentong's singles space is deliberately given by me. The purpose is to let Shentong adopt a one-on-one offensive method when facing Bowen.

In front of Bowen, the immature Shentong couldn't take advantage of it.

The more times you play singles, the more points the team will fall behind!

Popovich is very confident in his disciples.

Without Kidd, Shin is just a young player with good physicality and long-range shooting ability, just like Martin who can only catch dunks.

In Popovich's heart, he actually looked down on last year's No. 1 pick Martin.

Bowen: I have you covered, boy, eat me!

Shentong tossed the ball with one hand, but did not make a shot.

Bowen: Wait. There seems to be something wrong, why is he still in the air!

The white wings on Shentong sneakers are flapping in the air at this moment.

A butterfly in the tropical rainforest of the Amazon River Basin in South America, occasionally flapping its wings, can cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later.

Although the wings are small, the effect is great.

Shen Tong felt that after he jumped in the air, the surroundings seemed to freeze, and he was floating in the air all the time, showing no sign of falling.

On the contrary, Bowen in front of him had an expression of confidence and joy at first, followed by surprise and fear, and finally an expression of disbelief.

After Bowen's big hand left his shooting trajectory, Shen Tong shot the ball steadily.

Without the slightest interference, the mid-range back leans back and hits easily!

2-7

After scoring the goal, Shentong raised his right hand high to welcome the cheers and support of the home fans!

If there is only one god in New Jersey at the moment, then this god must be called Shentong.

Seeing Bruce Bowen's surprised expression, Shen Tong did not forget to tease him: "Hey, Bruce, don't be discouraged, you almost stopped me."

Bo Wen frowned, this young boy is so brave enough to dare to provoke me.

The Nets finally let go.

Scott breathed a sigh of relief, put his hands behind his back, and waited and watched.

Assistant coach Brett stood up, put his hands around his mouth, and shouted to the field: "Pay attention to defense! You must defend the ball first."

Parker held the ball outside and planned to use his speed to tear through the Nets' defense.

This time it was Robinson who stepped forward to block Kidd.

Shentong immediately defended him.

Parker is confident at the moment.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry for showing my ugliness!

The little French sports car stepped on the accelerator and stepped on it to the bottom!

There was a "snap".

The sports car that had just accelerated at full speed exploded.

Shen Tong's long arm snapped off the ball in Parker's hand.
