Chapter 293 Passionate Bay Area

San Francisco, Oakland area.

Since the 93-94 season, the Warriors entered the playoffs for the first time, which made the fans here very happy.

Yang Di is like Chris Webber at that time, but the difference is that this big boy from the East led the Warriors to gradually become his style with a wild and fierce attitude.

The arrival of Baron Davis is more like adding bricks to this style.

The playoffs are approaching, and the Warriors' publicity is already overwhelming.

In the urban area of ​​San Francisco, huge posters of the Warriors are hung above the shopping malls, on wall banners, and around the arena. Yang Di even has some individual giant posters. In this city, his influence is slowly permeating. force.

He is a top-notch Chinese superstar, and Chinese fans are proud of him.

On the street basketball courts in many areas of San Francisco, the number of fans wearing the Warriors' No. 23 is particularly large, even surpassing Richardson's No. 34 and Dunleavy's No. [-].

As the sun set, scattered sunlight shone on the stadium surrounded by barbed wire, and the fans gradually dispersed.

"Watching the game!"

On this day, the Spurs came to the Oakland Arena to challenge the Warriors away.

In the G3 game, the two sides already knew each other very well. Montgomery was thinking about how to solve the Spurs' current lineup change. After Ginobili changed to the substitute lineup, the Spurs seemed to become more difficult.

Before the game, both sides were silent.

Unlike the game against the Hornets in the Heat last year, a team like the Spurs can't even spit out trash talk.

The on-site tubing hit a tall column of flames. In the stands, fans wearing special white jerseys filled their positions, with flags shaking and enthusiasm.

The noise spread from the outside of the arena all the way to the inside of the arena at night, and more than [-] media companies were waiting on the scene.

The ground parking lot, the underground parking lot, the parking spaces are all full, and there are still many fans outside the arena without tickets. Watching the big screen outside the arena, they gather together to watch the game, just to feel like this The atmosphere of cheering for your favorite team together.

In the tavern outside the arena, in the restaurant, and in the official NBA flagship store, fans were all staring at the TV, waiting for the game to start.

Fans lined up in a long line, and the aerial camera flew over the top of the arena, recording the charming night scene of Oakland.

In the arena, the game is about to start.

As the game started, the players on both sides became calmer. After the Warriors' starters experienced the baptism of the previous two games, they also calmed down a little in this game, waiting for the referee to return with a calmer attitude.

Yang Di caught and shot jumpers from mid-range, taking off and shooting again and again.

……

"The Bay Area is especially welcoming tonight."

Imperial TV sent Yu Jia and Cai Nan to broadcast live. After more than a year, Cai Nan was once again watching Yang Di's game live, and he was immediately excited.

"Director Cai, I want to know, does the NBA have such a high decibel every night?" The two were still waiting for BJ's signal to cut in, and they chatted casually before the broadcast started.

"Today is the playoffs, isn't it different? Think about it, the Warriors haven't made the playoffs for almost ten years, and the fans have been waiting for this day for too long!" Cai Nan said, "And the fans here There are many, the population base here is very high, and the basketball atmosphere is strong.”

"If the Warriors beat the Spurs in this game, it is really possible to win this round of the series."

"It's entirely possible." Cai Nan said: "Although the last game lost to the Spurs by a big score, I think the Warriors have problems on the offensive end. Now Davis has a chance to open up this point. Suppressing the Spurs at this point, forcing the Spurs to help defend or double-team, then other players will have a great opportunity to score."

"After Davis takes control, the Warriors are indeed like adding an engine, and their strength has improved a lot."

The two were chatting, and when the game was about to start, they received a signal from BJ, then quickly put on the earphones, sat up straight, and began to return to the normal state of commentary.

The two first introduced the starting lineups of both sides.

Warriors: Baron Davis, Jason Richardson, Mike Dunleavy, Troy Murphy, Yang Di.

Spurs: Tony - Parker, Brent - Barry, Bruce - Bowen, Duncan, Muhammad.

On the inside, Yang Di and Murphy switched defenses in a wrong position. Yang Di's main defense was Duncan, and the Spurs also used Duncan to defend Yang Di. It means that although the two claim to be in different positions, they are actually facing each other directly.

Duncan's single defense is too strong, and Yang Di actually doesn't want to play against Duncan very much.

Duncan also doesn't like to play against Yang Di. Yang Di's speed, strength and bounce are too strong. In terms of defense, it falls a lot.

Before the game started, the two looked at each other and stood in the middle circle.

Jump ball, Warriors and Spurs players stand apart.

This time, with the jump ball, Duncan reacted a little faster than Yang Di, forcing Yang Di to take off, and relying on his taller body and long arms, he passed the ball to the ball handler behind him.

Parker advances with the ball.

The players on both sides are familiar with each other, and Davis dare not rely too much on Parker, for fear that Parker will force him to overtake.

Outside the three-point line, the Spurs stood two or three times. Duncan made a pick-and-roll for Parker. Parker used Duncan's pick-and-roll to throw off Davis' defense.

At the top of the arc, Yang Di opened his arms to defend against Parker, and he raised it very high.

Parker's dribbling posture is very low, and his arms are vertical and close to the ground. Yang Dijuan can't break it, so he can only follow Parker, and at the same time observe the running position of his teammate Davis, hoping that he will come to double-team Parker.

The two chose to let go of Duncan. After Duncan slid down, Yang Di raised his arms, interfering with Parker's pass, and then slid down to defend.

Parker didn't dare to pass the ball through, and chose to pass it to Barry on the wing.

Barry looked at the situation on the court. The Warriors' defense was in place, and there was no special good opportunity. They could only hang to Duncan who wanted the ball inside.

Duncan received the ball on the outside of the penalty area, and after taking the ball, he turned around.

"boom!"

The two of them came into contact with each other, and they were both slightly shocked. Duncan raised his arm high and hooked a half-block basket.

"clang!"

The hand of the shot was a bit hard, the basketball hit the inner edge of the basket and bounced, and Yang Di, who turned around, easily grabbed the rebound.

Muhammad rushed over and wanted to harass and steal the ball. Yang Di grabbed the ball with one hand and lifted it up to avoid his stealing the ball.

There were cheers at the scene.

The Spurs just missed a wave of offense, as if they missed the game-winning shot.

Fans in the Bay Area burst into tsunami-like cheers. The game has just begun, and there is already an extraordinary degree of enthusiasm here!
