"Coach, please believe me, I will not give him a chance to catch up with the score."

This kind of personality is a good thing most of the time, and it is suitable for controlling a team. The team can make the best choice no matter what time it is.

But basketball is a competitive sport after all. It also requires passion and blood, an unyielding will and a fighting spirit. A player who is too calm is not entirely a good thing. Sometimes he needs to be impulsive. He used to think that What Brandon Roy lacked a little bit now appeared in him, and he felt very relieved.

"Well, what I want to say is that while attacking, we must not forget to defend. Defense is very important. It is the first element of whether we can win this game. We failed yesterday, but we must win today , From now on, every win means that we are one step closer to the playoffs, the victory is in sight, as long as we persist for a few more minutes, the victory will be ours."

McMillan's words made the players think of yesterday's failure. It was an unforgettable pain for all the players to take the lead all the way at home and to be overthrown by the opponent in the end. Just after the past, the hatred was hard to quell, and the opportunity for revenge came again. They naturally played the game with a revenge mentality.

Since Stephen came to the Sonics, they have rarely seen anyone who can keep up with Stephen in scoring for such a long time, especially when the point difference is so close, Stephen can't even overtake the score. Surprised and unexpected.
