NBA: Strongest In The History Of Holding A Large Ball

After half-time, players from both sides returned to the dressing room to rest. But apparently the mood on the Pistons' side is much lower than on the Spurs' side.

Obviously, in the first quarter of the game, the Pistons were still five points ahead of the Spurs, but at the end of the second quarter, it became that the Pistons were fifteen points behind, and the Pistons were equivalent to being beaten by the Spurs by 20 points in the second quarter. This is an exaggerated situation in the NBA. In this case, it means that the gap between the two teams is very large, and judging from the situation of the game in the second quarter, it is difficult for the Pistons to have any chance of turning the tables in the next game.

In the Spurs locker room, the players did not feel overly excited about the half-time lead, and still honestly drank water to replenish their strength, while waiting for Coach Popovich's tactical arrangement.

Coach Popovich walked over to the tactical whiteboard and began his half-time speech: "Boys, you guys did a great second quarter, I can't even fault anything, give yourselves a round of applause." With

that, Popovich took the lead in applauding, and his players followed the coach's applause.

"In the previous training, we didn't practice this D'Antoni seven-second fast attack system, but now we use it directly on the field, and I think everyone knows the hero of this.

As soon as Popovich's words fell, the eyes of the Spurs generals invariably fell on Chang Tiancheng, making Chang Tiancheng very uncomfortable.

"I think it's a good tactic, ever. Popovich walked up to Chang Tiancheng and patted him on the shoulder, "After that, I will also add this tactic to the daily tactical manual as part of our usual training." "

Coach, this tactic is really cool. We just have to run along with us and we can score easily. Sochan couldn't help but interject, before this, he had never dunked so wantonly on the court, and today he was a good dunk.

And such a refreshing offensive tactic, but the experience given to him is not complicated, just prevent the opponent from directly impacting the basket on the defensive end, then protect the rebound, pass the ball to Chang Tiancheng, and then follow him to charge the opponent's frontcourt. In the case of the Spurs' players, it only takes a few rounds to understand this set of tactics.

"In the second half, I think Kessie will make a lot of adjustments, and I think the dressing room discussion will be exciting at halftime. The corners of Popovich's mouth rose to reveal his iconic old fox smile, "Often, you rest at the beginning of the second half." Keldon, you have been resting for a long time before, and it shouldn't be stressful for you to lead the team for a while.

Keldon nodded: "Coach, how am I going to play on the court at that moment? or play Chang Tiancheng's fast attack system?"

"No, just play according to your previous style of play." Often, this tactic may not work for everyone, so you can find your own rhythm. Popovich patiently admonished, and then faced all the players and continued to lay out the tactics for the second half.

"At the start of the second half, Vassell, Graham, you two are in the back. The

two who were called by name stood up and began to move their bodies, ready to enter the game in the best physical condition. Their playing time has been limited so they are very positive. Graham, in particular, as a new recruit who came to this team with Chang Tiancheng, his performance in this game is far less than Chang Tiancheng, so he is counting on the next game to show his strength.

"Collins, you're going to have to be on the pitch for a while, Sandro, you're going to replace Sochan. Popovich continued to arrange the team's personnel.

Sochan and Chang Tiancheng had been on the pitch for a long time in the previous game, so Popovich intended to give the two of them plenty of rest in the third quarter.

Anyway, there was no pressure on the record, and I thought that it didn't matter if the outcome of this game was won or lost, so it was better to simply let Chang Tiancheng rest well and avoid injuries caused by fatigue. This is the future core of the team, and given his previous performances, he is definitely up to the task, so his fitness concerns are all the more important.

After all, the Spurs have suffered a lot in terms of the health of their stars.

But now that the Spurs have taken a 15-point lead at halftime, Popovich still lined up a little and planned to accept this victory, which should be regarded as a welcome gift to several new signings of the Spurs.

After Popovich made the tactical arrangements, he let the players rest, and he turned around and took the stats board handed over by the assistant coach, intending to take a look at the statistics of the players on the field.

I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it. Although Popovich knew that Chang Tiancheng's performance in the first half was extremely good, he was still shocked by the statistics of 20 points and 13 assists in front of him.

Although there is no comparison between the data of the two eras, Chang Tiancheng really made the team turn over by 20 points after all, and the influence of this game can be said to be obvious to all.

Popovich sighed in his heart again: his vision is really right, Chang Tiancheng's lottery ticket is right. If he can maintain this momentum every game, he may not have to wait for Wembanyama to come...

Thinking of this, Popovich quickly shook his head: No, the team's talent is too lacking right now. Although the Spurs are very good at this kind of all-for-all team basketball, at that time, the team also had the all-time No. 1 forward as the pillar of the interior, and now the team's interior is still too thin.

We still have to consolidate our mess and try to get Wembanyama on the team's squad next season. At that point, the championship can be said to be just around the corner.

On the other hand, James was in his mansion in Los Angeles, and after watching the first half of the game, he turned off the TV.

"Hey, Dad, why don't you keep watching? Didn't you say you want to pay attention to Chang Tiancheng's performance?" Brownie couldn't help but ask when he saw his father turn off the TV.

"Now in this situation, there is no need to watch the next games. James smiled, "I'm not mistaken, Chang this kid, once he can control the ball, he can play a rather terrifying performance on the court."

Saying that, James couldn't help but sigh: Lakers, this deal of yours may affect the team pattern of the NBA in the next few years...
