The godfather of basketball started from conquering the NBA

Game [-] is still in Minnesota.

But the game seemed to be decided even before it started.

The sense of oppression brought by the Timberwolves to them was too strong. Originally, DeRozan could have targeted this point, but now that the three-point shot is open, all the previous defensive tactics have become ineffective.

The Timberwolves' offensive end not only disrupted the Spurs' defensive tactics, but also disrupted Popovich's thinking.

However, this is not the most important thing. If the Spurs rely on their young forwards to rotate quickly, the offensive end will create space for Parker in the mid-range. After all, Parker is at his peak this year and ranks third in MVP.

The Spurs can still compete with the Timberwolves.

But it's a pity that the Spurs are in chaos internally and are starting to divide the pot.

The first one to bear the brunt is Iguodala, who joined this season. After all, there is no problem with GDP. In addition, Iguodala, who has the highest salary, has become the scapegoat.

Moreover, Iguodala did have a problem in this series, and DeRozan's sudden outbreak added fire to the Spurs.

But in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that Iguodala cannot be completely blamed for DeRozan's explosion. After all, his three-pointer was originally unplanned, and Iguodala is also responsible for wiping Parker's butt.

But the fans don't buy it. In their view, the Spurs spent a lot of money to acquire Iguodala this year just to lead them to win the championship. This performance is unacceptable to them.

As a result, all major forums were full of abuses against Iguodala, and there were even ugly words that insulted Iguodala's family.

When Xu Xiao saw this, he understood that the outcome of this series was decided.

It is impossible to say that this kind of language does not affect the players, especially a player of Iguodala's level, and Iguodala's contract expires this summer, but if this situation continues, Iguodala will Dara's contract extension with the Spurs is probably on the line.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiao suddenly had an idea and rushed directly to the locker room.

"Boss, why are you here?"

Westbrook, who was eating grapes to replenish energy, was startled when he saw Xu Xiao suddenly running in.

"Would you like one?"

"No, I have to have a brief meeting now, and my tactics will be slightly changed today."

There was still half an hour before the entrance, and everyone didn't know why Xu Xiao wanted to say something to them, but the authority of the boss still asked everyone to put down what they were doing and gather together.

15 minute later.

"Boss, it has to be you. When it comes to killing people and killing people, you are one of the best."

Dayao was the first to speak, because Dayao had to play a very important role in today's game.

"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. In the past few rounds, my brothers played so well that I was envious. Today it is finally my turn."

Oden was also very excited, because Xu Xiao also gave Oden a great tactical position in this game.

"If you want to show off, it's up to me. If I don't pass the ball to you, where can you show off your skills?" Westbrook pouted at Oden.

"Yes, yes, master, please pass more good balls to me. Whether I can be the protagonist today depends on you, buddy." Oden directly hugged Westbrook and was about to kiss him.

"But one thing to say, coach, your change is really bold. Our previous tactics have obviously taken effect, and it has also proved that the Spurs can't defend our system, but you still want to change the tactics. I really don't know what to do. How to evaluate it?"

Josh was on the side, sorting out his sneakers, and replied.

The assistant coach on the side also echoed:

"Isn't it a bit risky? Our previous tactics were very successful. If we change on the spot today, we will be a master tactician if we win, but if we lose, we will be doomed. Is it necessary to take this risk?"

"There is no attack that cannot be defended, only the hearts of the people that cannot be defended. What I want is not just victory, I want to defeat them."

Xu Xiao replied domineeringly, and then a real man never looked back and entered directly.

"Boss is going to knock the Spurs' pants off."

"By the way, when we played against the Thunder in the last round, I didn't feel that he was so evil-minded. Did the Spurs offend him?"

"Hey, you don't know. The boss at that time said this about the Spurs..." Yao, who is a big asset in the locker room and is also the locker room talker and Xu Xiao's unknown secretary, began to tell a story that was not for Xu Xiao Know the story.

"I'll wipe it, really, Yao really?"

I know that JR and Westbrook were chasing Dayao and asking questions when they entered the court.

Xu Xiao didn't know what they were talking about, so he just called DeRozan over alone during the warm-up.

Because his role in this game is much less than in the previous two games.

Suddenly transformed from the core of the team's tactics to a role player, Xu Xiao is a little worried that DeRozan will have a gap in his heart, especially for a player with a bad mentality. Although he did not play many roles today, his tactical status is not low. .

"Don't worry, coach. I've already enjoyed two games. It's time for my brothers to enjoy this game. And I don't know if I can maintain the same feeling as in the first two games today."

DeRozan smiled easily. In fact, he was right. These two games have paid back his worth, and he has also developed three-pointers. He will definitely not worry about the next contract.

Even if the Timberwolves don't renew his contract, relying on this no-dead-end offense is still enough for him to get a valuable contract.

Coupled with the influence of the system, DeRozan still has a good impression of Xu Xiao.

Since DeRozan has no problem here, come on, let me see what color underwear you are wearing today.

As the referee's whistle blew, the game began. After Oden learned that he was the protagonist today, he was particularly excited, even jumping the ball with all his strength.

The ball flew directly over Asik's head.

After Josh got the basketball, he immediately handed it to Westbrook.

After Westbrook got the ball, he pushed across the half court unhurriedly, then took a look at the opponent's defensive formation and immediately decided on the offensive tactics.

Westbrook waved to Ibaka, motioning him to come to the ground, and Asik followed.

But the ball was a fake pick-and-roll. Westbrook went directly to the right, and his strong body directly pushed away Parker.

After accelerating to the basket, Duncan could only let go of the defender to help Parker defend.

But there should be no one better at making cakes for inside players than Westbrook, especially Westbrook, who is a Billups player.

He had already observed the opponent's defensive formation the moment he broke in, and the ball was passed the moment Duncan came up.

Oden received the ball and dunked directly.

"Oh, my God, Greg, the ball went directly over Duncan's head for a dunk. Is this the legacy of the times?"

The on-site commentator also exclaimed that the first ball in the opening game was really beautiful.

"Don't worry, this is just the first ball, there will be more like this."

Xu Xiao just glanced at Popovich lightly, and Popovich became a little restless.

What the hell is this kid holding back?

In fact, for that ball just now, as long as Iguodala could come over to defend and block Westbrook, Duncan would not have let Oden go so wide.

But Xu Xiao was betting that Iguodala didn't dare anymore, betting that he was afraid of DeRozan's three-pointer, and betting that he didn't want to wipe the GDP's butt before falling behind.

In fact, that's what Iguodala thought.

"Damn it, I wipe your disciple's butt every day. He does the most work and gets the most punishment. Even if the fans don't understand it, why don't you, the head coach, understand it? In front of blue-collar workers, all the data are gone. I didn't apply for a decent big contract, and I tried to use corporate culture and mentor-apprentice relationship to kidnap the signing.

I can go to your M place. This time, whoever wants to wipe his ass will come. I have to fight for my own data. Even if I follow your requirements, the team will not be able to win. The reputation will be ruined and the data will be lost. Even the contract is gone. "

If Xu Xiao heard Iguodala's inner thoughts, he would probably be shocked. You must know that Iguodala was famous for not caring about statistics in the Warriors.

Even when he got to the bench, he had no complaints. I didn't expect that there would be so many complaints in the Spurs. I can only say that oranges born in Huainan are oranges and oranges born in Huaibei are oranges.
