When Andrew Gates, who was absolutely new to this series, came on the court, Popovich's face was calm, but his heart was already surging, as if he had foreseen the tragic scene of Han Yi falling to the ground in pain and being carried out on a stretcher.

NBA is a typical world of winners and losers!

No matter how despicable the championship is, as long as it is won, everything will be washed away by time!

Will the so-called infamy last for a month, a year, or two years?

That's the end!

After four or five years, when they talk about the championship of this year, they will only remember who won the O'Brien Cup in the end, and will never remember what twists and turns happened in the middle!

Even if someone still remembers it four or five years later, what about 10 years later? Who will remember how much blood was stained under this championship 10 years later?

Because history will always only remember the winners, and only the winners will be qualified to speak in history.

At this time, the official commentator has begun to mourn for Andrew Gates, who has never played in the playoffs and will face Han Yi in his first playoff appearance:

"Popovich let this 34-year-old guy who played in the playoffs for the first time face Han Yi, a monster, in his first playoff appearance. Does he want Han Yi to beat this old rookie to retirement?"

"Height 2.01 meters, weight 98KG, is indeed the body of a small forward, but in front of Han Yi who is 2.10+ meters and weighs 120KG, Andrew Gates is as weak as noodles."

For the commentator, of course, he knows all the players of the Spurs. Even if Andrew Gates is a small role in a small role, even if he can't tell his technical characteristics, he can talk about his age and career resume.

But for Han Yi, the black-faced man in front of him is too unfamiliar. Considering that most of the NBA are black-faced men, Han Yi is even a little face-blind to this guy who has never seen him before.

After finishing the free throw, Han Yi naturally ran back to defend Duncan. As for who the newcomer was and what he did, Han Yi didn't care at all.

In this round, Duncan was just a setter, and finally the young general Avery Johnson scored a mid-range shot.

Looking back, Andrew Gates officially faced Han Yi for the first time!

Before, Andrew Gates watched Han Yi from a distance on the sidelines, how he flew and dodged on the court, and how he blew up everything. Although he had observed Han Yi more closely than 99.99% of the fans, when Andrew Gates' arm was on Han Yi's stone-hard skin, the feeling was still very different!

When Andrew Gates was fighting with Han Yi in close combat, he was obviously hanging on Han Yi's body, but he still couldn't push Han Yi a little bit. Han Yi was hanging on Andrew Gates on the outside line, and he opened his posture, dodged and moved, and shot a three-pointer!

Iron! But the referee blew the whistle mercilessly!

Andrew Gates committed a three-point defensive foul!

Han Yi went to the free throw line and made three of three free throws!

After the substitution, in less than half a minute, Han Yi was given three free throws, which made the Spurs host curse, but Popovich was still very calm and nodded approvingly:

"It is indeed a stretch to let Gates play in the NBA, but his experience in traveling in many international leagues has made him a veteran who has experienced many battles. It is right not to commit a malicious foul immediately after entering the court, because Han Yi may still be wary of Gates now."

"What Andrew Gates should do now is to show that he is doing his best to defend, and then fail to defend, and finally suddenly get angry and attack Han Yi, so that everything can make sense."

Popovich is trying to find a rationale for Andrew Gates' poor performance here, but he can't find it anymore!

Because he had just faced Han Yi for three rounds, and it goes without saying that he failed to defend in one round. More importantly, in three rounds, he fouled twice, which not only made him a three-point foul, but also lost a 2+1!

This is already the worst possible situation, and the promised flagrant foul has not appeared yet!

Seeing that the Spurs were heading for a 20-point difference in the first quarter, there was no sign of Andrew Gates's flagrant foul!

"What are you doing!"

Popovich was angry, but he could only hold back what he wanted to say:

"Hurry up and do it, don't delay any more, you are a pure side effect on the court. If you continue like this, we will be beaten before Han Yi gets injured!"

So why didn't Andrew Gates do it?

If Andrew Gates were asked to answer, Andrew Gates would definitely say: "I committed it, I'm already committing a flagrant foul"It's against the rules!"

Andrew Gates was already trying his best to fight with Han Yi, trying his best to pull Han Yi's arms with both hands, and trying his best to use his elbows and knees to hit Han Yi!

When his back was completely in contact with Han Yi, Andrew Gates even tried his best to hug and throw Han Yi to express how cruel his malicious foul was!

But the result was...

It hurts, it really hurts!

Andrew Gates tried his best to mess with Han Yi, Han Yi didn't say he was injured, but Andrew Gates himself was already covered in scars!

Han Yi could feel Andrew Gates was doing his best to defend himself, but as for the flagrant foul? Sorry, I didn't see it!

Han Yi only felt that this guy's defensive skills were too rough. He was indeed a supporting player and had no rules at all. Are the defensive resources in your Spurs team so scarce?

To deal with such a big defensive move, Han Yi saw the referee and said, "You won't blow the whistle, right? That's fine. I will return all these moves. As long as you don't blow the whistle, we'll let it go!"

At first, Andrew Gates felt that he was He punched and kicked a stone lion, but the other party was fine, but he was in unbearable pain.

After a while, the "stone lion" that had just stood there and let him punch and kick suddenly learned to fight back, and Han Yi returned all the tricks he had just used on Han Yi!

Andrew Gates beat Han Yi, and Han Yi could withstand it. When Han Yi started to beat Andrew Gates, Andrew Gates felt that he might not be able to receive the money Popovich gave him, because he had the life to take the money, but really couldn't spend it!

When the timeout , Popovich criticized Andrew Gates and stunned the other Spurs players. Andrew Gates played really badly and couldn't defend Han Yi at all, but should he be scolded for not being able to defend Han Yi?

Who can defend Han Yi? Letting a guy who earns 400,000 a year fight with Han Yi is the funniest thing in itself!

But when Popovich repeatedly emphasized to Andrew Gates to pay attention to his footwork, Andrew Gates understood:

"Oh, so you want me to kick him!"

If you want to talk about a flagrant foul, it has to be a foot-tip!
