Chapter 191 The Battle Between the Ox and the Horse ([-])
Kaman For Whiteside, to be honest, this is not difficult.

Originally, Qin Yan remembered that Whiteside became the leader in blocks and rebounds after returning to the NBA after leveling up in China. Now that he has brought him to the Spurs ahead of schedule, I don’t know if Whiteside can maintain this strong form. progress.

No matter how you think about it, Whiteside has more people who can teach him in the Spurs. Under the double training of Duncan and Popovich, I think his problem of missing people and blocking shots should be improved.

Of course, there is still a long way to go to reach that point, at least for now it is impossible.

Therefore, in the next few rounds, although Whiteside worked hard, his defense against Kaman was not good, and Kaman didn't need much skill to beat him.

Leaning on his back and hitting hard, or turning around and breaking through after turning his back on, anyway, Kaman can crush Whiteside as long as he relies on his own brute strength.

Therefore, in the first five rounds of the Mavericks' offense, Kaman made three of four, and only one ball was missed because of Whiteside's pressing too tightly, and Kaman shot a little faster.

But fortunately, although the effect of defending Kaman is not very good, but the Spurs are doing well on the offensive end, so the current score of the two teams is still 8:8.

This result is acceptable. Popovich watched from the sidelines. Although he felt that the center had a tendency to be overwhelmed, at least he worked hard.

This rookie who just came back from NBDL is really awesome. Although his current performance is not very good and he looks very immature in many places, his unyielding energy is exactly what Popovich wants.

I didn’t see that although Kaman knocked him away again and again, he was able to block him back at the first time. Although Kaman’s four-for-three at the beginning looked very good, Popovich bet that Kaman will not so comfortable.

Sometimes, some people just need to grow up faster in a harsh environment.

In the Mavericks' attack, it was no surprise that Kaman held the ball again, and Whiteside stepped forward again and started a hand-to-hand fight with him.

"Boy, why don't you give up! You can't guard against me!" Kaman felt that the kid behind him wanted to continue to confront him head-on, and he was a little upset at once. Why does this have a tendency to be abused?Or simply can't let go of face and don't give up?

"You want me to admit defeat? It's not that easy!" Although Whiteside's face was flushed from the force, he still didn't take half a step back, and stuck firmly behind Kaman.

"Why is this kid's strength getting stronger every time?" Kaman felt that it might be his own illusion. He always felt that the kid behind him was getting more and more difficult, and he was putting more and more pressure on himself.

In desperation, Kaman gave up his plan to take this kid hard. After all, he couldn't just fight with the stupid kid behind him from the very beginning. How can he play a game like that?
Kaman passed the ball before the five seconds of his post-up. Nowitzki caught the ball, shook Duncan away with a very realistic fake, and then dribbled into the paint for a three-step layup.

"Don't think about it!" Whiteside didn't know if it was because he blocked Kaman just now, and now he was full of confidence. When he turned his head and saw Nowitzki, he was really rushing towards the inside line. , Without further ado, Kaman was left behind, and he rushed towards Nowitzki, looking like he was going to cap Nowitzki's layup.

"Don't go!" Popovich, who was off the court, patted his thigh and stood up when he saw this scene, and kept scolding Whiteside for being stupid.

Who is Nowitzki?The top five power forwards in history will give you a hat so easily?This is obviously digging a big hole and waiting for someone to jump. After a while, Whiteside will be tricked into a foul no matter whether he comes by himself or passes the ball.

But Whiteside doesn't think so much. He played like this in NBDL. He has just returned to the NBA. He can't change the problem of "you will die if you don't block shots" for a while. No, just give up Kaman Ready to come to Ganowitzki.

Nowitzki saw him rushing over, so he didn't dodge too much. The most comfortable and reasonable choice for Nowitzki was to pass the ball to Kaman behind Whiteside for him to dunk, and then he could cook the ball by the way. Buckle the rookie in front of him, and call him a foul.

But Nowitzki is the boss of the Mavericks, the fifth or even the top three power forwards in history in the future (the number one Duncan is unshakable), it would be too embarrassing to persuade a rookie who has just been promoted from the NBDL.

What's more, there is still a Barkley who has always looked down on himself and said he is a softie sitting on the commentary stage today.Nowitzki doesn't need to think about it, if he passes the ball, Barkley will definitely turn on the mocking mode and spray himself in the face immediately.

Well, if this is the case, then kid, I’m sorry, it’s not that I, Nowitzki, didn’t give you a way out, if you want to blame you, you can blame Barkley, it’s him who made me tougher.

Making up his mind to shut up the annoying senior Barkley, Nowitzki also accelerated his breakthrough speed, then raised the basketball with his right hand, and kicked the ground hard with his left foot, turning the three-step layup into a dunk!

At the same time, his left hand is across his chest, ready to use it to separate the opponent who tries to block the shot.

Whiteside really felt that he was a fan of blocking shots. Although he saw that Nowitzki was ready to defend against blocks, he jumped up without hesitation, stretched his long arms, and was ready to shoot Nowitzki. Key's dunk is pressed down.

"Arrogance!" This was the first thought in the hearts of everyone who saw this scene except the Spurs members.

Who is Nowitzki?That's not a soft persimmon that can be pinched casually, and Nowitzki has already made a slam dunk move. You, a rookie, still have an expression of not giving up until you are covered, which is a bit bullying. .

If someone of Duncan's level did this, it would be better, and it wouldn't look too abrupt. You Whiteside is just a rookie who just got promoted from the NBDL and started the first game. How can you be so disrespectful to your seniors?

"Drink!" Nowitzki also felt offended, which strengthened his determination to teach Whiteside a lesson.

"Crack!" Surprisingly, Whiteside actually touched the ball in Nowitzki's hand!

"It's covered!" Feeling his fingers touched the ball, Whiteside was very happy.

"Don't even think about it!!" Nowitzki yelled, and then he saw the veins in his right hand burst out, and a strong force from nowhere made him smash the ball into the basket with Whiteside's hand inside!
"boom!"

"Di-"

The referee blew his whistle and gestured at the same time. Nowitzki's 2 points are valid, and a free throw is added!
"Oh, I knew it!" Popovich patted his thigh in frustration. He originally thought that this new disciple could make a counterattack, but unexpectedly he was fouled. It seems that he is still too young ah!

However, Popovich has no plans to change people. To grow up, you have to pay some tuition and so on...
