Chapter 701 The No. [-] Scholar Reimbursed (Part [-])
"The Spurs tried out George Hill alone during the joint trial before, and I heard that the Spurs intend to choose to trade with the Clippers on the night of the draft. Is there such a situation~?!"

Before the Spurs and Clippers game, Spurs coach Popovich accepted an interview.

"I know about the trial training. We really liked Hill at the time and hoped that he could come to San Antonio, but he was intercepted by the Clippers~, so I hate old Dunleavy, I hate the Clippers, they robbed him I left my people, so I will beat them hard tonight~!!"

Popovich responded with characteristic humor.

"Then does this matter of wanting to trade with the Clippers exist~?!"

The reporter continued to ask.

"When I am promoted to the general manager of the team, you can ask me this question again~!"

Popovich continued to answer with "witty words", responding to those sensitive topics.

It seems that Lan Shengli's original choice coincides with the Spurs.

And with Hill's style of play, it should match the Spurs quite well.

While talking, the game has already started.

As Popovich said, the Spurs started off with a very focused and intense defense.

Originally, after the Clippers lacked the beard, their offensive position was much worse. Under the pressure of the Spurs' strong defense, it was even more difficult to get a good shot opportunity for a while.

"Dum~!!!"

"Dum~!!!"

Both attacks were blocked for 24 seconds.

The old coach Dunleavy watched and shook his head. He must be very dissatisfied with the current performance of the team.

But after all, "a clever woman can't cook without rice", the current situation of the Clippers is like this, and there is a real shortage of personnel.

"Click~, brush~!!"

"Click~, brush~!!"

On the Spurs side, "Stone Buddha" Duncan faced Brand, who was much shorter than himself, and hit a wipe shot on the left and right sides.

With a stable performance like "Stone Buddha", he is worthy of being the top player in the league's power forwards today.

"A player like Duncan may look unpretentious, but his skills, his defense, his humility and his style of doing things make him a different superstar, and he and the Spurs' style It also complements each other, and Popovich is a match made in heaven, such a match is very rare in the entire NBA~!!"

Lan Shengli sat not far from the team bench, watching the game and sighing.

The Spurs entered the state very quickly, and it seemed that the Clippers were a little bit difficult.

"Click, clang, clang~, brush~!!"

Finally, the Clippers scored.

I saw that Hill used Jordan's pick-and-roll to speed up to the inside. Facing the defensive striker, Hill calmly and skillfully used a fake layup with his right hand, and then switched to a layup with his left hand. scored.

"Hill is a player who really has a lot of talent. The more I watch him play, the more I like him~"

Popovich sat there expressionless, watching the game, thinking.

"From the perspective of the Clippers in the draft, how did they find Hill, how did they choose Hill~?! I really don't understand this~!!"

Popovich continued to think, and continued to sigh.

The reason why Popovich was puzzled was because he didn't know the existence of Lan Shengli.

This is the so-called situation where the enemy is in the light and I am in the dark~
"Swipe~!!"

While speaking, veteran Michael Finley hit a three-pointer.

It is said that a family has an old man, such as a treasure, but it seems that the Spurs have too many "family treasures".

Although it is said every year that the Spurs are old and the Spurs are no longer good, the Spurs are still able to get good results and are still championship contenders. This is the scariest thing.

While speaking, the Clippers attacked again.

This time it was Brand who was going to be in position, ready to single-handedly play Duncan.

Brand's low-post delicate skills are comparable to Duncan's, but after all, Brand is at a disadvantage in height, so if he wants to single-handedly beat Duncan, it may not be so easy, and he may not score so well.

But Brand was very confident. While hitting Duncan with his back, he scanned other positions with his peripheral vision.

The Spurs know that the Clippers have a "Bland and Jordan" move, so the Spurs' inside players are determined not to double-team Brand, that is, to guard one-on-one.

Seeing this, Brand made up his mind to fight Duncan to the end.

Brand was dribbling the ball, and suddenly turned towards the baseline, and he was already at the same position as Duncan.

Then Brand used more active force to find a confrontation, trying to knock Duncan away and create room for shots.

But although Duncan was hit, his super long wingspan still covered Brand, making it still inconvenient for the latter to handle the ball.

But Brand couldn't control that anymore. After taking two steps, he jumped up directly, holding the ball with both hands and was about to smash the ball into the basket.

The reason why the Spurs can continue to prosper is based on their complete defensive system.

Although Duncan lost his position, the forward player and defensive giant Bruce Bowen came over. He was not afraid of Brand's impact at all, and rushed up directly, trying to block Brand's slam dunk.

I saw that because Bowen sprinted and took off, he jumped higher than Brand.

The four arms of both sides flap together in the air.

"Boom~"

Just as Brand was about to use his strength to overwhelm Bowen, his knee, to be precise, his right knee suddenly became unable to exert force as if he was unconscious.

It was Bowen's left kneecap that hit the underside of Brand's right knee.

Brand directly lost his strength, fell from the air, and fell to the ground.

"Beep~!!!"

The referee immediately blew the whistle and whistled Bowen's defensive block.

Although it caused a foul by the opponent, the price of this foul was indeed a bit high.

I saw Brand lying flat on the ground, with his left leg bent, his right leg straight, and his left arm covering his face. He didn't struggle with the heart-piercing pain, and he didn't stand up.

Just lay there peacefully.

Seeing this, the teammates immediately stepped forward to check.

"Something is not good~!!"

Lan Shengli stood up unconsciously, and looked at Brand lying near the bottom line with a worried expression.

The Clippers team doctor also quickly came to the court, lay beside him, and asked.

The game was therefore interrupted.

The game had just started less than 3 minutes ago, and this was only Brand's first sports attack. Such an unexpected situation occurred, and it was indeed too sudden.

"Is it the knee~?!"

the team doctor asked.

"Is it the right knee~?!"

Seeing Brand nodding his head slightly, the team doctor continued to ask.

"Can you bend~?!"

This time, Brand shook his head.

"Get on the stretcher~!!!"
