Super Role Player

At the press conference after the game, many reporters came, and Craig Sagel was still waiting among the many reporters.

Vicki led An Xi into the scene, the camera clicked and flashed, An Xi squinted, found his place, and sat down.

"Well, old friends, I'm very happy to meet you again, but my time is very tight, so I hope your questions can be quicker." Vicki’s opening remarks have become accustomed to reporters, so they hurry up. Start to ask the questions they want to ask.

"Mr. Vicki, 12 points behind in the opening, who do you think is the problem." The first question is not kind, but it doesn't stop Vicki at all.

"My question, I don't even know what the **** I'm doing." Vitch took the responsibility directly to himself.

The reporter who asked the question shrugged and sat back.

"Then the Spurs led by 12 points after the game, who do you think is the credit?"

"Credit to all of us." Vitch looked calmly at the reporter who asked the question, and seemed to say again: Don't you want to embarrass me.

"Who has done the most?"

"Perhaps... it's me..." Vicki smiled, and the reporters became even more speechless.

With Vicki here, no reporters would like to ask Anxi questions. Only two domestic reporters asked a few easy questions, and then the press conference was almost over.

"Okay, one last question."

For the last question, Jeff Macdonald, a reporter from the San Antonio Express, a local media outlet in San Antonio, stood up and asked: “After winning this game, the Spurs and the Heat have tied their records, but the Spurs have managed to beat the Heat with their double-kill record. The Heat became No. 1 in the league. Do you have the confidence to maintain this ranking until the end of the season?"

Veitch nodded: "Of course."

...

"The Spurs won the battle of the century! This season double kills the Heat!"

"The 27-game winning streak is over! The Spurs lead the league!"

"James Nemesis emerged, the Spurs had 12 points and 8 consecutive victories, ending 27 consecutive victories!"

The American media carried out crazy reports after the game. These reports were sent out in the first place. In addition to these reports, there were also reports that some reporters made their own guesses.

For example: "James is a rare move after the game, refusing to interview or causing conflicts in the locker room?"

"Break: LBJ kicked the locker room, the 27-game winning streak actually lost the Heat to infighting?"

Also related to the Spurs.

"The goal of the Spurs to continue their winning streak with 8 consecutive victories, or they will overtake the Heat with 27 consecutive victories!"

"Vicci takes responsibility and credit, or dissatisfaction with some players?"

However, there is no need to pay attention to these reports of chasing shadows, especially those related to the Spurs.

After the game, James responded to his kicking before leaving San Antonio: "I'm just venting. I am dissatisfied that the team lost to the Spurs. I think my teammates have not done their best, otherwise we will not lose. This game will not be double-killed by the Spurs this season."

James’ response was naturally known to the Spurs. Tony Parker was quite disapproving of this, but he didn’t speak in front of the media. He just said, “LBJ’s remarks, I really don’t see you. Less, he will always only ask questions about his teammates, what about him?"

After the end of the game that was blown by the media as the war of the century, the Spurs went lightly into the next game.

For the remaining three games in March, the Spurs ended with a complete victory, and finally entered the final month of the regular season with an 11-game winning streak.

The Spurs also ranked first in the league with a record of 59 wins and 15 losses.

On the contrary, it was the Heat. After losing to the Spurs, they returned to the Eastern Conference to challenge the Bulls. They lost another 97:101 game. They lost their first consecutive season and the gap with the Spurs also widened.

In the first game in April, the Spurs defeated the Magic 98:84 and won the 60th victory of the season.

However, two days later, the Spurs rotated most of the main players, losing to the Thunder on the road, and the 12-game winning streak ended, but the record of 60 wins and 16 losses still stabilized the Thunder and Heat.

The Spurs, with a solid record, began to rotate continuously when only the last six games of the regular season were left. In the final stage of the regular season, the Spurs' top priority has been transferred to the playoffs.

On April 6, 2013, the semi-main Spurs narrowly defeated the Eagles by 97:96, 61 wins and 16 losses;

On April 10, the Spurs, who continued their rotation, lost 86:96 to resolve, 61 wins and 17 losses;

On April 12, the Spurs returned to the home court, defeating the Kings 108:101, 62 wins and 17 losses;

On April 14, the Spurs challenged the Lakers in an away game. At this time, Kobe had been seriously injured and was reimbursed for the season. The bleak Lakers unexpectedly defeated the Spurs, 91:86, 62 wins and 18 losses.

On April 15, the Spurs challenged the Warriors away. Anxi scored 24 points. The Spurs defeated the Warriors 116:106, 63 wins and 18 losses;

In the final game of the season, on April 17, the Spurs fully rotated and played on the bench, losing to the Timberwolves 95:108. In this way, at the end of the regular season, the Spurs were 63 wins and 19 losses, and finally overpowered the 61 wins and 21 losses of the Heat, 60 wins. The Thunder, who lost 22, became the league's first.

With the end of the regular season, the playoffs table is also released.

The Spurs are No. 1 in the Western Conference, and they will face the Houston Rockets, which are eighth in the Western Conference. The Thunder, which is second in the Western Conference, will face the Lakers, which are seventh in the Western Conference. Sixth Warrior; the Grizzlies are fourth in the West, and the Clippers are fifth in the West. The two old opponents meet again.

In the Eastern Conference, the Heat are the first in the Eastern Conference and the opponent is the eighth in the Eastern Conference. The New York Knicks are second in the Eastern Conference. The Nets and Bulls are divided into fourth and fifth, and the two teams have become opponents in the first round of the playoffs.

At the end of the regular season, Anxi also saw his regular season statistics. This season, Anxi played 79 games, of which 6 were off the bench. He averaged 30.6 minutes per game, 17.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 2.4. Assists, 1.1 blocks and 2.8 steals, 51.2% from the field, 42.5% from the three-point range, and 88.7% from the free throw.

Compared with last season’s 9.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.0 steals, Anxi’s data has exploded, but compared to the progress of James Harden and Paul George, Anxi’s personal data has not increased. Attract people's attention.

Only ESPN's Mark Stein paid a little attention to Anxi's data explosion when he was summing up the season.

"This season, the most notable thing in the Spurs is the progress of several young players. Kawhi Leonard has gone from being qualified to being a super player who can defend alone, assist in defense, and can hold the ball without the ball. The defensive engineer became the league’s super sixth man, and Danny Green went from a little-known substitute for the Spurs to the Spurs 3D..." (To be continued.)
