Chapter 896 Old?

Seeing the number 24 and 29 so spelled out, Nash suddenly felt that he was not a "man".

After all, he had to admit some things. No. 29 was right, and No. 24 was right. He said so many truths, saying that the current team is more suitable without him, that is more or less... Make excuses for your timidity and fear.

I don't know when it started, but I have become different from what I used to be?
Not as long and flowing as before, not as eager to compete as before?

...What on earth did I come back forcibly and rejoin the team?
In order to be an SVIP super audience at a critical moment for the team?
Yes, I am 40 years old, this age is very old, but isn’t it 24 months before I turn 2?In terms of injuries, isn't his serious injury at the end of last season not more serious than himself?Isn't Kareem Abdul-Jabbar still the main force of the Lakers at the age of 36, averaging more than 40+ minutes per game?That season, he also won the championship.

So, I'm considered a very old veteran on the court, but...not the oldest, is he?

At the age of 40, Ma Long can still score close to 20+8+5 data?
Therefore, compared to the old, there are many people in NBA history who are older than themselves, and compared to the state of the same age, there are also many people in NBA history who are in better state than themselves.Speaking of which, thinking about the way Kobe looked at himself when he scored that 2+1, Nash finally woke up.

You don't even have the confidence to challenge and play. You really don't deserve to step on the court.

That look...was even pitiful.

Poor what?
Pity yourself.

I……

Nash looked up at No. 24 and No. 29 who were struggling on the field, and he suddenly remembered what he said to his agent before his comeback: This is my last season, I will bet on this last season, and I lost the bet , I also admitted.

So, now, is it time to admit it?

Is it... still too early?
I'm Steve Nash, but I've always been the leading actor, not just a chatting spectator! ! !
In the Lakers bench area, player No. 10 stood up, walked to the head coach's seat area, and said, "Mike, I've changed my mind."

D'Antoni was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, No. 10 began to walk towards the technical table and said:
"Tan is right. Watching a show is not fun, so I'd better go and act by myself."

After the Lakers and Spurs each missed an offense and defense, the Lakers applied for a substitution, replacing Jordan Farmar with No. 10, a 40-year-old veteran, Steve Nash.Seeing Nash's reappearance, Tang Qian's eyes showed a hint of surprise and said, "Steve, have you finally figured it out?" "Yeah." Nash smiled and said, "It should be figured out, right? Don't think about it anymore." , then it will be too late."

The conversation with him on the 24th was much more concise:
"Ready?"

"What do you say?"

"Come on then."

"it is good."

Tianchao Sports Station.

After seeing the Lakers' new substitutions, Yu Jia was very puzzled and said: "Why do you have to replace Steve Nash now? Now is the most critical 2 minutes. Nash, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't like him, It's just that Nash's defense now..." Yang Yi also frowned: "Although I don't know what D'Antoni is thinking, it's obviously not a good idea."

"Because if I were Popovich and saw the Lakers replace the 40-year-old Nash again, I would definitely hit him mercilessly. I know that Nash's career is very brilliant, fruitful and honorable, but he After all, he is old now. Mike D’Antoni chooses to replace Nash who is not good at defense at this time, isn’t it equivalent to setting up a target for the Spurs to play?”

On the Internet, there was an uproar all of a sudden.

Looking at the messages and comments, most of them are puzzled. Some radical fans even couldn't help but yell:

Is D'Antoni out of his mind?Why change Nash at this time, just Nash's defense, isn't it for people to overcome?

D'Antoni's employment has always been "elusive". I have seen it today. If he loses tonight, he will bear the biggest blame! ! !
My boss won't end another season like this, will he?Can there be another chance?
Nash has long since died, and was targeted by the Spurs as a ghost. It would be better to go to Farmar instead of him.

Some remarks became more and more unpleasant, and some Nash fans couldn't help jumping out to complain. In an instant, the Lakers fans seemed to be split apart.This is also the result of multiple big names being together. Even if they are old, they still have their own loyal fans, and they are not allowed to be black when they open their mouths.Even if it is a "friendly army" of the same team, it makes no difference.

But after all, Nash's fans still lack confidence.

After all, when the Lakers came, Nash's aging speed was visible to the naked eye, and his defense was completely slack this season. This, as "nano", they themselves don't know it.It's just... After all, I've liked it for so long, and even paid attention to it throughout my school days, how could I have the heart to let it be so slandered and masturbated?

As Nash fans, how much they hope that the former Wind Son, the former King of Phoenix, can return to the top like Kobe, and have another spring.But... is it still possible?He is already 4 years older than Kobe.

Is this still possible?
At the Spurs AT&T Center Arena, seeing that the Lakers replaced Nash again, Popovich didn't need to give more instructions. The entire Spurs team knew what to do in the next offensive round.

However, for now, we must guard against the ball first.

After Nash was replaced, the overall operation of the Lakers became smooth in an instant. Kobe also returned to the 2nd position, began to look for opportunities, and focused on shooting.Nash looked at the ball from the top arc. As expected of a veteran point guard master, he quickly found a pass opening, and this kind of opportunity is not easy for ordinary passers, including Kobe.

Or, if you find it, you dare not pass it on like this.

In the process of Tang Qian's inside position, Nash suddenly raised his hand and threw the basketball in his hand near the Spurs' basket.

This... Could it be a mistake?Of course, impossible.

This ball should be passed like this.

It seems that there is no chance, but that is because this ball is not an ordinary alley-oop. It not only requires the passer to pass the ball well, but also requires the receiver to have certain ability and energy.After Nash passed the pass, he looked at the inside line and said in his heart:

I know, you can do it, can't you, hot.

Tang Qian was also slightly stunned at first, but soon he recalled something in his mind, this is... the one he did during training?Yes, it must be!Well, well passed Steve, now it's my turn! ! !

Just when in the domestic live broadcast room, both Yang Yi and Yu Jia thought that the ball was about to be passed wrongly, No. 29 suddenly turned around, and then jumped up with a step. Although the Spurs also had follow-up defense for this ball, but... Duncan quickly chose to give up.Give up, is the number 21 "counseled"?of course not.This is a strategic abandonment.Because the elasticity and explosive power of No. 29 of the Lakers team are too good, let alone Duncan, no one in the Spurs team can stop Tang Qian who is fully jumping.

Therefore, instead of accompanying a 2+1 or a malicious foul at the end, it is better to forget the ball.

After all, basketball is not football. Selective giving up is a manifestation of basketball IQ.

bang~~~
Tang Qian jumped high, caught the ball with both hands, and the Spurs' basket was pulled to whimper.

"Beautiful pass!!!" For this dunk, Tang Qian let out a little breath of anger. He was so depressed by the Spurs in front of him.Now that Nash gave him such a benefit as soon as he came, Tang Qian was not happy.

"Nash is truly immortal. The pass was so beautiful and wonderful. It was as if the Spurs' tight and seamless interior defense just now had an opening." The No. 1 position is the commander and brain of the court. Kobe is very capable, and he can pass the ball, but the threat and destructive power of this pass are completely different. The real pass masters are all As a pure point guard, James is all about ability + vision is too strong, which is especially achievable."

"However, the defensive end is the key. If you can't defend against people, then the Spurs will still lose when they are already ahead."

"It depends on how the defensive Lakers will do this time."

How to do it?There was nothing he could do. Nash tried his best to defend, but Parker still caused a defensive foul. The latter stood at the free throw line and made 2 of 2 free throws. 112-116, which is equivalent to Tang Qian's wonderful dunk just now, which was redeemed.This is the "key" that Yang Ying said.

Can't defend, no matter how good the offense is, in the case of already falling behind, it's just a lively scene.

It can't make it comeback and win.

But Nash knew exactly what he was here for. After halftime, he called for a pick-and-roll, broke through and scored, and the basketball was directly thrown to No. 24. No. 24 did not hesitate from the outside line, and he raised his hand and hit a three-pointer.

brush~
This kind of decisiveness is indeed much stronger than when Kobe himself was the ball handler just now.

Because Kobe had to take into account the responsibility of point guard before, but now, there is only one.

Catch, shoot, shoot.

Unleash the ferocity of his Black Mamba.

115-116, the Lakers are only one point behind.

The Spurs' ball was still Parker. Looking at the time, there were only 38 seconds left in the game, which basically consumed all of a sudden. The time left for the Lakers to attack would not exceed 16 seconds.If the Spurs grasped a little more accurately, maybe it would only leave the Lakers with about 14 seconds.Therefore, this game has reached the final critical point.

Any mistake will make the Lakers irreparable.

They are different from the Spurs, who still have a retreat, but they have long since disappeared.

Parker saw the Spurs open halftime, he stood at the top arc to control the ball, glanced at the game time, and suddenly said: "Steve, your era is already over, isn't it? You can't guard against me. Yes." Nash didn't speak, he just concentrated on staring at the other party, for fear that the other party would take the opportunity to start and break through him.

"You don't need to be so nervous." Parker said, "Because I want to live with you now, it's easy. It doesn't matter whether you're ready or not, it's the same." Nash's eyes were a little blazing, but he had been the No. 1 position for so long , It is very clear what the Frenchman in front of him wants to do.This is not simply "talking nonsense", but "trash talk" and "psychological warfare".Because the more critical the moment, the greater the mental and psychological fluctuations, and the more sensitive it is.

Therefore, it cannot be provoked into the trick.

Nash remained silent, seemingly ignoring the meaning of Tony Parker's words.

Parker seemed to have guessed this too, he was not disappointed, instead he said: "Your peak is very dazzling, I am not as good as you, but..."

"You are very old now."

"So, goodbye, Steve."

"You can't guard me."

In the eyes of countless people, the "French Sports Car" seemed to have spent little effort, just a simple change of direction and an emergency stop, and then passed the Lakers' No. 10 cleanly.Then, he took off calmly and made a shot. Tang Qian wanted to jump out from the inside, but because the distance was too far, he was not a superman.

Therefore, Parker made the shot, and the moment the basketball hit the net, the entire Spurs' home court erupted.

The San Antonio people are extremely satisfied with the performance of the Frenchman.

On-site commentator Bill Rand also said: "This is a harvest-like shot. Perhaps this is also the last sports game goal in the entire series. Tony, he lived up to his nickname. Tonight, he easily scored Beyond Nash."

As soon as the goal was scored, the Internet exploded, especially the fans of the Lakers, who complained wildly about D'Antoni and Nash, as if they were always looking for "scapegoats" and "catharsis bags".Let go of the inner depression that the Lakers are about to be eliminated from the game.

This time, many Nash fans had nothing to say, because the fact is that Parker made this key goal under Nash's defense.Throughout the game, the Frenchman also scored nearly 40 points, and most of them were scored by attacking Nash's defense.

This pot can't escape.

Alas, after all, my teenage idol is still a hero at the end of his life, is it difficult to guarantee the evening?

115-118, the Spurs regained a 3-point lead, and the Lakers called a timeout.

"I'm sorry Steve, I like you very much, but this is basketball, isn't it?" Parker said to Nash before leaving the court.What sounds humble is actually arrogance.Of course, as a generation of stars, how many people do not have arrogance?Besides, Parker just scored such a crucial goal.

He has the qualifications and capital to speak like this.

On the basketball court, the winner is king, everyone understands this truth.

Nash looked at the Frenchman who was 7 to 8 years younger than himself, just nodded, but didn't say anything.

He just turned around and walked to the Lakers bench area, nothing seemed to happen.

PS: One update tonight, tomorrow, um, continue to explode?How about it, do you support it? ? ?

hey hey hey~~~
