After the game, Stephen comforted Coupard, who hadn't scored a point in the game. There was no way, who told Brand that this game was like taking a doping, and Coupard only played for 4 minutes. Grabbed a rebound, so even if he won, Coupard still wasn't happy enough.

Of course, it is also possible that the boss will be parted again. The reason is that whenever he has time these two days, Coupard will follow behind Stephen. It can be regarded as rediscovering the feeling of being a follower in the past. No need to work hard. You don't need to bother, the boss will naturally take care of food and drink.

After only one day's rest, the Spurs came to the American Airlines Center, the home of the Phoenix Suns. Facing the Suns, driven by Nash, who were attacking like a frenzy, the Spurs also had nothing to do. With the addition of six players in double figures, this kind of offense that blooms everywhere cannot be suppressed through defense. The Spurs had to swallow the bitter fruit of their first losing streak this season.

Although Stephen's performance in this game was remarkable, he scored [-] points, [-] rebounds and [-] assists, but he didn't help the team win the game, which made Stephen feel very depressed. Naturally, he couldn't be happy about his first losing streak in the arena.

It's a pity that I returned to San Antonio that night, and on the second night, we ushered in the challenge of the Los Angeles Lakers. They just defeated them at home, and then Popovich said that after the game against the Clippers Folks, the Lakers naturally came here with vengeance and resentment of being underestimated.

Especially Kobe, although he only scored 29 points in this game, he sent out eight assists, and the Spurs put most of their energy on defending Kobe, giving others too many opportunities. In the game, Odom was placed at the small forward position throughout the game, and he was matched with Stephen almost the entire time.

This guy has height, strength, and skills. If he didn't have the problem of distraction, he would be almost at the level of a superstar. In this game, he almost never lost his mind. Under his defense, Stephen's offense played It was very uncomfortable. Although Stephen also restricted his offense, it was Stephen who lost.

From the data point of view, Stephen scored [-] points, [-] rebounds and [-] assists, in addition to [-] blocks and [-] steal, while Odom scored [-] points, [-] rebounds, [-] assists, [-] steals and [-] blocks. There is no difference in terms of superiority or inferiority, but Stephen is the first scoring point in the bench for the Spurs, and the third scoring point in the team. In the usual games, he can score more than [-] points. Only scoring [-] points is already a huge loss.

However, Odom's role in the offensive end of the Lakers is far less important than that of Stephen. In addition to Kobe, who is a top two guy, there are also Smush Parker and Devin George, so Stephen and him exploded. For the Spurs Saying it is bad news.

Although the Spurs only lost by three points in the end, for the Spurs, it is already a three-game losing streak. The record is getting farther and farther away from the Pistons. Not to mention, even the No.2 Mavericks are about to catch up with the Spurs , And after the game, accusations against the Spurs came like a flood.

From Popovich's insistence on rotation, Van Exel was still on truce in this game, and after Manu Ginobili made [-] of [-] shots, he was still placed on the court by Popovich, but instead made [-] of [-] three-pointers. Brent Barry went to rest, and many experts also criticized Popovich for relying too much on Stephen in the bench.

I think Stephen has no offensive ability at the beginning of the season, even if he has been trained through training, he is still unstable, especially in such important games, and he cannot be allowed to stay on the court for a long time. Who, Ginobili's performance is even worse than Stephen's. After all, their goal is to hope that the main players of the Spurs can stay on the court for a longer period of time, instead of always playing a little more than halftime like this. Among them Naturally, this guy Bruna Kwinter is indispensable.

Many people think that the strong performance of the Spurs in the first half is gone forever. Otherwise, with the strength of the Spurs, how could there be such a situation of three consecutive losses? Fortunately, they admit that the Spurs are still very strong Yes, at the same time, they felt that the current Spurs were at the end of their strength, and had reached their peak, so the Spurs couldn't bear such pressure.

Many people began to bad-mouth the Spurs' prospect of winning the championship. Everyone got the Spurs' even-numbered year curse to prove that every even-numbered season of the Spurs is always like this season. On the road to victory, but after the season, problems began to occur frequently. When the season is cold, they will always be eliminated.

On the other hand, in the year when they won the championship, the performance of the Spurs was not so strong, but in the end, they were able to adjust to the best condition, and then won the victory. The target of an expert attack.

This is the problem of getting ahead. Although the Spurs are not number one in the league, they are number one in the West. Everyone hopes to interfere with the state of the Spurs in this way, so that other teams will have a chance. Otherwise, the Spurs It doesn't look too good to run so fast, doesn't it?

No matter how they criticize, no matter how they accuse, the Spurs have no reaction from top to bottom, because everyone knows that verbal wars are useless, only victory, why these arguments have not appeared before, that is because the Spurs used to I have been winning all the time, even if I lose occasionally, it is not a crime of war. I have never lost in a row. This sudden three-game losing streak will naturally arouse people's suspicion. Let alone them, even the Spurs fans are very worried about the Spurs status.

Popovich did not have any overreactions, nor did he put any pressure on the players, and the training intensity did not increase. Everything was as usual, waiting for the opponent to come, and the players were also very calm. There is only a faint atmosphere spreading in the team.

The next opponent of the Spurs is the Houston Rockets, a strong team in the same state. They are also one of the "Texas Three". Under the guidance of Van Gundy, the Rockets ranked second in the league in terms of suppressing the opponent's scoring, and the Rockets ranked first in suppressing the opponent's shooting percentage. It's the Spurs.

If coupled with the training of "Little General" Johnson, the Mavericks, which were originally extremely powerful in attack, have also become a rare defensive team in the league. That's right, many teams, especially many teams in the Eastern Conference, after the away trip to the top three in Texas, it feels like returning to the world from hell. The horror of the top three in Texas can be seen.

The Houston Rockets have already risen to sixth place in the Western Conference. If it weren't for McGrady's sudden injury, everyone would have seen that the Rockets have the ability to enter the first group, especially this season's Yao Ming, who has completely turned into an insider A monster, he can hardly find an opponent who can completely compete with him in the league.

However, apart from Yao Ming, the Rockets have almost no advantage. Originally, they still had McGrady, but McGrady was injured, and it was not known when he would be able to return. The Rockets only have Yao Ming left.

Looking at the Rockets' lineup at other positions, power forward Juwan Howard, Juwan Howard, who has a contract of 1 million yuan in the league, is actually just an ordinary player with excellent offense and defense, and as he gets older, he has completely degenerated into a A blue-collar player, you must know that he is 33 years old.

Small forward Keith Bogans was originally just McGrady's backup, a second-round pick. The Rockets only used a minimum salary player to replace him from the Bobcats in the middle of the season. Hit the starters.

Shooting guard "Mickey Mouse" David Wesley, the original backcourt combination formed by the Hornets and Baron Davis was also very popular in the East, but as he got older, his state gradually declined, and he was replaced by the Hornets. After being exchanged to the Rockets, the two-old combination formed with Jon Barry was not at a disadvantage when facing other teams' bench lineups, but now Jon Barry has been given up by the Rockets. With McGrady changing from shooting guard to junior As a forward, he has also changed from a substitute to a starter, and he is also the oldest starting shooting guard in the league.

Point guard Ralph Alston is still in his prime, but in terms of strength, Alston can only be regarded as the average level of the league, and compared with the Spurs, the Rockets have more serious injuries, except for McGrady. , backup center Mutombo also entered the injured list, and there is still a former starting point guard Sura in the injured list.

And it is even more incomparable with the Rockets' bench and the Spurs' bench. The Spurs have the best bench lineup in the league, but what about the Rockets, Swift?Needless to say, the Rockets signed this guy before the start of the season, and put him in the promotional video with Yao Ming and McGrady, trying to build a Big Three lineup, but it didn't take long before they began to regret it. The basketball IQ is not generally bad. The Grizzlies did a good job of cheating the Rockets in this matter. The Rockets gave him a lot of playing time and wanted him to play better numbers before the trade deadline. to go, but in the end did not succeed.

In addition to Swift, Bronson, the guard who the Supersonics gave up; He will stay, and then there will be Luther Head, a rookie, and Ryan Bowen, who has the same surname as Bowen but is definitely not at the same level as Bruce Bowen.

But this is how the Rockets played against the Spurs in the first half. The two sides entered the second half 42-[-]. With the name of "Chinese Derby", it attracted a large number of fans, and everyone watched it with great interest.

But in the second half, the Rockets, especially Yao Ming, suddenly showed their power, and the Spurs suddenly fell into a very difficult situation.
