Chapter 316
Popovich’s perception of Li Lei is very complicated. If Li Lei is under him, his plasticity will definitely be higher than that of Parker. Although Parker’s speed is stronger than Li Lei’s, Li Lei’s wingspan and basketball IQ are higher than Parker. The fate of the Spurs.

So this season Popovich stepped up his training for Parker. He desperately hopes that Parker can grow into an existence that can stand up to Li Lei. As an existence in the same year as Li Lei, there is no reason for Parker to be thrown away by Li Lei.

Popovich thought, and the game continued. Although Sam Gold was level 4, Li Lei's physical strength was greatly affected by the constant use of this skill. So when Li Lei saw Parker and Bowen, he called Chandler to help with the pick-and-roll. But Chandler was not facing that kind of brain-dead forward.

However, Li Lei still found a gap between Duncan and Chandler. Parker broke through again and passed Stephen Smith in one step. Bowen stuck up again. He aimed at a certain part of Li Lei with one hand. With that, there is no way to help prevent it.

In the first quarter, the two sides were fighting hand to hand. Li Lei scored 2 points and 4 assists. He was really tired. Fortunately, the Bulls took the lead, but with such a great physical exertion, the second quarter will definitely be very difficult.

Li Lei didn't play immediately in the second quarter. Ewing, Miller and Crawford came up. The Spurs had Antonio Daniels, Marik Rose, Danny Ferry and others. Ewing faced Mark Bryant. He played comfortably. Although the opponent was heavier than him, he was far behind in basketball skills.

Coupled with Crawford's sudden shot from the outside, the Bulls still maintained this lead.

But Popovich didn't sit still. He chose to replace Duncan. Like Li Lei, Duncan only took one shot in the first quarter, and scored 2 points and 1 rebound. He was completely a green leaf for his teammates in the first quarter.

Duncan came up and faced the combination of Brad Miller and Ewing with a substitute. His first ball was directly against Ewing to complete a dunk, and then he blocked Brad Miller again in defense, and Terry Porter made a quick break to score.Duncan came up, and the wind direction of the game completely changed.

"It was a wonderful contest. Under the influence of the Bulls, the Spurs actually played a fast break. This game is interesting."

Li Lei looked at the time. There were less than 7 minutes left in the second quarter. He chose to play, and there were other starters playing at the same time.

After Li Lei came up, he assisted his teammates to score points. Popovich was not idle, and he also replaced the starter, Bowen, that annoying guy.

Li Lei's mental power was highly concentrated, because he didn't know what unconscionable things this guy Bowen would do under the instigation of Popovich. It is always good to be more vigilant.

The two sides switched offense and defense, and Li Lei faced the Spurs' double-team again. Chandler was entangled by Duncan and couldn't come to the pick-and-roll. Just when Li Lei was about to start Parker's breakthrough, Bowen appeared in front of Li Lei like a ghost. It was broken, but the referee's whistle blew, and Bowen lay on the ground crying continuously. Li Lei's body was not strong enough to resist, but with the help of Goldfinger, his strength was still good. Bowen's body could resist this full blow, but it would definitely hurt for a while.

"Murder, this is murder, fuck." Popovich jumped up on the sidelines like a master, Crawford ignored Popovich, but looked at Bowen who was still on the ground.

Li Lei was very calm, and even smiled at Popovich. This made the old silver coin really angry. He wanted to bully Li Lei, but he didn't expect Bo Wen to be so useless.

Bowen was kicked in the abdomen, and it took him a while to get up from the floor.After discussing with several assistant referees, Crawford gave Li Lei a flagrant first-degree foul. Li Lei didn't protest at all. Anyway, if you don't clean up a villain like Bowen, he will definitely kick his nose in the face.

Seeing that Li Lei had only received a level 1 malicious foul, Popovich was upset again, and raged at Crawford. Although there is no zero-tolerance rule yet, the authority of the referee still does not allow provocation. Crawford directly gave Popovich a technical foul, and the latter stopped immediately.

After this farce, the game on the field became more intense. Duncan may have been stimulated by his teammates. In the following time, he completely took over the game, wiping the board, layups, blocks, and steals. In such a situation, he, the core of the Spurs, stood up.

Li Lei didn't let Duncan focus on the front. Because of Li Lei's kick, Bowen was more honest when defending. This made Li Lei less pressured when facing flanking attacks. Taking advantage of Bowen's lack of timely double-teaming, Li Lei used Parker to break through and pass Parker. Parker had nothing to do about it. Parker is an underrated point guard.

The second half of the second quarter was completely Duncan and Li Lei's individual performance. The two MVP contenders led their respective teams in the second quarter, and they both played impressively. At the end of the second quarter, the Spurs led by 2 points. Duncan's statistics were 14 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists, while Li Lei's side had 10 points, 10 assists, and 2 steals. In terms of statistics, Li Lei was better, but the Bulls were behind. Poor, he was 5 for 0 in the half, and if he scored one, the Bulls would not be behind, but only 2 points behind in the half, which is acceptable for the Bulls, after all, the Spurs have a deeper bench than the Bulls.
