Coach Lee

Chapter 588

The Nuggets finally ushered in a victory after a four-game losing streak.

At home at the Pepsi Center, the Nuggets beat the Warriors, an underdog in the West, 87-91.

In this game, both Reid and Arenas performed very well.

Reid scored a season-high 30 points in his fifth game as a starter, while Arenas also performed bravely off the bench, scoring 23 points.

Although the winning opponent was not strong, it brought enough confidence to the whole team.

After that, the Nuggets played against the Lakers at home.

Without Li Nan, the Nuggets lost the game unsurprisingly,
However, the Nuggets played exceptionally tenaciously in this game.

The Lakers opened up a gap of more than 10 points several times, but the Nuggets can always recover the score.

Just like the Western Conference finals last season, everyone played very hard.

However, at the last moment, the Nuggets still lost.

Billups didn't know who to give the last key ball.The pass after hesitation was also intercepted by Kobe.

94-90
The Nuggets lost to the Lakers by 4 points at home.

Although they lost, the Nuggets' morale was boosted.

Without Li Nan, they can drag the second-ranked Lakers in the Western Conference to such an extent. Of course, they are worthy of pride.

After this game, the Nuggets won two more weaker opponents.

However, some people are going to be unhappy because Li Nan is coming back.

In the Nuggets locker room before the game against the Spurs.

"Michael, you seem to be in a bad mood today?"

Li Nan came to Reed with a smile on his face, but Reed was quite vigilant.

"No, I'm happy."

In order to prove that he is happy now, Reed also cracked his mouth and gave a "hehe" smile.

Li Nan thumped him, "Stop pretending, I know what you think. Don't worry? I won't play today, I just follow along to see."

"Li, don't trick me, you're already wearing your team uniform." Reid pointed to the long-sleeved team uniform Li Nan was wearing, and he was unwilling to believe Li Nan's words.

"Hey! You idiot! Is my brother like the kind of person who can tell a lie?"

Reed looked at Li Nan and shook his head, "You don't look like that,"

Li Nan was quite satisfied with the answer, but after a while, Reed suddenly said, "Because you are."

Li Nan regretted letting Fortson and others train Reid specially.What an honest guy before, but now he dares to tease me.

Li Nan shook his head, the melons he grows, he eats by himself.

"Okay, okay, I won't joke with you, I'll tell you seriously."

Li Nan tried his best to put on a serious look, "After playing today, you have to be very careful about a guy named Bruce Bowen. This guy doesn't talk much, but when he talks, it may hurt people. But it hurts even more. It was his unexpected defensive moves."

"What action?"

"Do you know how Vince of the Raptors was injured?"

Reed thought for a while, rolled his eyes, then shook his head:

"do not know."

Li Nan thought he really didn't know, "It's just that when the guy can't defend the opponent, he might trip up the opponent, and he will play tricks and tricks."

Who knows, Reed said earnestly at this time: "So, Li, you have to be careful when you go on stage later, and be careful of that guy's black feet. It would be a pity if you just recovered your wrist and injured your ankle again." ah."

Li Nan looked at Reed.

"Michael, come here."

"what?"

Reed was cautious and did not dare to approach.

However, Li Nan was a hungry tiger pounced on his food, and directly clamped his neck with his hand, and gave him a chestnut with the other hand.

"Good boy, dare to tease the captain, I'm here?"

"Ouch! Li, please forgive me, I won't dare again next time, at most, at most next time, ouch~~~"

Seeing Li Nan and Reid playing around, the locker room was full of "hahaha" laughter.

Some guys from Arenas and Fortson also took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and gave Reid a few hits.

It made the whole locker room noisy.

"Today's starter, Chauncey, Michael,"

When D'Antoni read out today's starting list, Reid was also a little unbelievable.

"Ah? Is it really me?"

Li Nan also stretched out his hand angrily, and Reed felt his neck shrink back as he raised his hand to cover his head.

"Hen~ Don't worry, Michael, I won't hit you."

“That's the best (but)”

Before Reid finished speaking, a sudden

Snapped!
"Ouch! Hiss~~~"

Reed's thigh was burning hot, and several faint finger prints appeared on his light-black thigh.

"Li, I just can't believe what you say."

"You still said?"

Li Nan raised his hand, and Reid quickly shrank back.

"Ouch, ouch, stop hitting! I beg for mercy!"

He couldn't beat Li Nan in a fight, and his status in the team was not as good as Li Nan, so Reed had to run away.

When the Spurs saw that the Nuggets started without Li Nan, they were all relieved.

Many old Spurs players and many San Antonio fans were relieved to see Li Nan not playing.

Because, the Spurs are just like the Rockets, Li Nan will explode every time they meet.The Spurs lost badly every time.

No Spurs fans like Li Nan, unless Li Nan comes to the Spurs.

Bubovich even came over to shake Li Nan's hand before the game.

"Li, you are really saving face."

Reach out and don't hit the Laughing Man.

Li Nan also responded with a smile.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, I hope you can take it easy later."

"OK! OK! No problem at all."

Bubuvich walked away with a smile on his face, every step he took was a bit smug.

However, he does enjoy himself.

For a half-dead team like the Spurs, he used two years of humiliation to bring the team back to life.

The current Spurs beat the Mavericks and rank No.3.Even against the Lakers and Kings, the Spurs won.

It can be said that the Spurs are a dark horse in the west, a very dark dark horse.

Many media have ranked the Spurs among the top five favorite teams to win the championship.

Looking at the guys standing around the white-haired old man, Li Nan couldn't help but sigh:
"The bad old man does have a trick. However, I won't let you succeed!"

The game started soon.

Spurs starters:
Parker, Finley, Bowen, Robinson, Curry,

Nuggets starters:
Billups, Reid, Hamilton, Wang Dazhi, Wallace
.

At the beginning, the Spurs suppressed the Nuggets.

The Spurs are very similar to the 76ers, almost carved out of the same mold.

Orders and prohibitions, who should do what to do.

They play such a system of basketball, and they like to play against opponents with the same large system of basketball.

The Nuggets have a bit of that in mind.

So, as soon as it came up, the Spurs took the lead.

However, they only took the lead for a few minutes, and the field quickly changed.

Reed and Hamilton's double-running tactic opened up, and even the 76ers couldn't defend the tactic, and the "newborn" Spurs had no choice.

The two sides began to enter the balance of power development period.

As soon as the rotation lineup came up, the Nuggets were completely turned over.

Although the Spurs had Ginobili on the bench, Arenas of the Nuggets was not afraid of tigers, and he led the rotation lineup to open the score in one fell swoop.

When the main players of both sides came back, the Nuggets became even more imposing.

The Spurs didn't seem to expect such a situation to happen.Several counterattacks were fruitless, and in the end they could only be defeated.
