Basketball's best forward and guard

Chapter 69

A day later, the Spurs set off from San Antonio and came to Golden State instead. That night, they were about to usher in the first matchup of the Western Conference Finals at Oracle Arena.

"We're confident, yes, we're ready, we're going to win this series"

Immediately after getting off the plane, Jiang Hao was in high spirits and accepted the interview from the reporters on the spot.

Jiang Hao's self-confidence surprised the reporters at the scene.

Well, regarding the No. 35 rookie of the Spurs, everyone has already experienced self-confidence a few days ago, but it must be admitted that he has the capital of such self-confidence.

.........

At [-]:[-] p.m., the Warriors played their home games at the Oracle Arena. As the most popular arena in the league in recent seasons, there were no seats left here tonight, and people were shaking. The entire arena was filled with the colors of the Warriors' home court.

This made Jiang Hao shake his head subconsciously. Playing in such a crazy atmosphere, as a challenger, he might not be able to be under a lot of pressure.

Fortunately, he is confident enough, and the background of the entire Spurs is also deep enough. They are the most successful team in the league in the past 20 years. This is not only reflected in the regular season record, but also in the playoff experience.

Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker in the team are all veterans who have experienced the baptism of the Western Conference Finals many times, and they obviously will not be stage frightened by this kind of scene.

In recent seasons, people have always said that the Spurs are very old. This is an undeniable fact, but this kind of oldness is beneficial in a stage like the Western Conference Finals.

The so-called family has an old man is like a treasure, this is exactly the truth.

"The exciting game is finally about to start. Guys, I have to admit that the next series will be the one I am most looking forward to in the past five years."

In the TNT live broadcast room, Shaq O'Neal said to Barkley and Kenny Smith with a loud voice.

At this time, both Barkley and Kenny Smith affirmed O'Neal's remarks. They agreed with O'Neal. There are more people, but everyone knows that the Spurs are a magical and sophisticated team. With Gregg Popovich, they have virtually improved their combat effectiveness by a few layers.

"China Jiang seems to be in a good mood, and his expression is also very relaxed. For the Spurs, this is good news. Everyone knows that the reason why the Spurs have been able to persist until now is definitely directly related to China Jiang. If China Jiang cannot Adapting to the playoffs and the current rhythm of the game will deal a major blow to the Spurs' hard power, and Jiang's state seems to be fine now."

Kenny Smith said.

"Indeed, so from this point of view, people must praise China Jiang. He is a player with a big heart. This is rare. In the entire history of the NBA, rookie seasons can be on the stage of the playoffs in the first year. How many people can perform so brilliantly? Jiang's ability to do this is enough to prove his excellence."

O'Neal agreed with Kenny Smith's remarks.

At this time, even Barkley had no choice but to nod, although he has never been optimistic that people of yellow race can succeed in the NBA, just like he mocked Yao Ming back then.

But now, he must keep his mouth shut with Jiang Hao, because Jiang Hao is using hard power to prove to everyone that the Chinese are capable of gaining a foothold in the NBA.

On the court, players from both sides are doing the final warm-up moves, while Jiang Hao and Dejounte Murray are doing warm-up activities with each other. It seems that his expression has not changed since the game is about to start.

At this time, the on-site director also gave the cameras to several important players on both sides, the Splash Brothers on the Warriors side, Kevin Garnett, Drummond Green, Kawhi Leonard on the Spurs side, La Marcus Aldridge and Jiang Hao.

A few minutes later, with the whistle of the referee, the much-anticipated game officially began.

Fans and friends, the game has already started. Let us follow the broadcast footage and take a look at the performance of the Warriors and Spurs. Of course, we should pay more attention to Jiang Hao's performance.

In the BJ studio on the other side of the ocean, Yang Yi stroked his glasses and said casually, obviously, in such an important event, Tencent Sports will of course broadcast the Western Conference Finals.

After the referee blew the whistle to start the game at Oracle Arena, LaMarcus Aldridge had the upper hand in the jump ball session with Zaza Pachulia to help the Spurs get the first possession right.

The basketball then came to Jiang Hao's hands, and then Jiang Hao advanced to the front court with the ball.

Facing Stephen Curry who was defending from the left, Jiang Hao didn't panic. Of course, he didn't rush to make a shot, but dribbled the ball while carefully observing the situation on the field. He didn't want the team's No. The first attack fails.

Leonard saw Jiang Hao's intentions, so he was very active in the position with Kevin Durant. On the surface, he was trying to get rid of the defense, but in fact, he was trying to get rid of the defense. Jiang Hao created the conditions for a breakthrough.

So, in the next second, Jiang Hao, who was hovering at the top of the arc, quickly started with the ball, and then quickly passed the free throw line and went directly to the basket.

Because Durant was taken away by Leonard.

This allowed Jiang Hao's breakthrough route to be unimpeded. As for Drummond Green and Zaza Pachulia under the basket, they were both entangled by Pau Gasol and LaMarcus Aldridge at this time.

Therefore, for the home fans of the entire Oracle Arena, the next scene is something they don't want to see very much.

Bang!
The Spurs' No. 35 kicked off the series with a violent dunk, Start.

"Oh, this is Jiang's opening ceremony from China. He doesn't seem to be stage-frightened." O'Neal felt more and more that Jiang Hao was his favorite player, even though he was not optimistic about Jiang Hao before that.

But before is before, now is now, these are completely two concepts.

Turning to the Warriors' offense, after Stephen Curry advanced the ball to the frontcourt, facing Jiang Hao's defense, he handed the ball to Durant who stepped forward to respond.

It can be seen from this action that Durant's role in this Warriors team is being further improved.

Facing Leonard, Durant took advantage of his excellent physical flexibility and then hit a fadeaway jumper.

Jiang Hao could see that Leonard had done a good job on the defensive end just now, but he still couldn't defend Durant. Under the circumstances, it is impossible to prevent it.
