Chapter 147
On January 1, at the AT&T Arena, the Spurs' home court, they will usher in their first game against the Thunder this season, and the next game will be the second game of the season at the Thunder's home stadium, Chesapeake Energy Arena.

The two teams played two games in a row, a bit like a mini series.

The Spurs home fans were very happy. Xiao Hang's early comeback was just a reassurance for the Spurs who were drifting in the wind and rain, but the Thunder was not happy here.

Relying on Westbrook and Pickles, the Thunder has temporarily achieved a good fourth place in the Western Conference, while the Spurs' previous three-game winning streak has narrowed the gap with the Thunder, only 0.5 games. It can be said that the outcome of these two games will determine their ranking.

Due to the embarrassment of the guard line here, the Spurs will start with Xiao Hang as the starting point guard.

The only change in the Thunder's starting lineup here is the power forward. At present, Patterson and Grant have been taking turns to start, mainly based on the opponent.

Grant's main defense is the fast and mobile power forward on the opposite side. Patterson's low-post defense is better. The Spurs have Aldridge, so Patterson can only start.

Adams easily scrambled the ball successfully, George took the ball and gave it to Westbrook, starting the first offense of the game.

Adams came out to pick and roll, which is the usual tactic of the Thunder.

Xiao Hang was going to squeeze the screen hard. After all, Westbrook's shooting was not very stable, and there was no area where his shots were higher than the average. It would be no problem for Gasol to delay.

Pfft—Xiao Hang felt his chest being punched. It turned out that Adams elbowed Xiao Hang when he was making an illegal move while squeezing the pick-and-roll.

This is Adams' old trick, using small moves to irritate opponents.

Xiao Hang held back the pain and squeezed past. Westbrook was about to shoot a zombie jumper at this time.

"Pa—" Xiao Hang shot Westbrook's shot out of bounds from behind.

"Thank you, Adams, without your elbow blocking the block, the timing of the block is not so accurate." Xiao Hang yelled a trash talk at Adams, and any player on the field could hear it clearly.

Adams pretended not to hear and was ready to serve.

Xiao Hang signaled, and the audience pressed hard. This is the bar. Popovich gave Xiao Hang the command right on the field, and Xiao Hang's trash talk just now let his teammates know what Adams did, and cooperated with his teammates. Fighting back is normal.

Paul George ran away from Gay after several twists and turns. When the serve was about to be taken as an example, he received the ball. There were 6 seconds left in the attack time, so he could only speed up the breakthrough.

Ade took off the rebound and gave it to Xiao Hang.

Xiao Hang controlled the ball for half court without calling a pick-and-roll. After a crotch dribble, the ball came to his right hand. He paused and worshiped Buddha, and suddenly accelerated. Westbrook picked up speed and followed closely.

"Shua—" Xiao Hang hit directly.

"Don't be envious of my hit rate." Xiao Hang changed today, and even took the initiative to talk trash. It seems that Adams' elbow just angered Xiao Hang.

Westbrook hates people talking about his shooting percentage the most. After holding the ball for half the court, he called a pick-and-roll again.

Xiao Hang continued to squeeze, but with the lessons learned from the past, he was very careful and protected himself with his hands, and Adams' elbow came again.

"A coward who only knows how to call a pick-and-roll?" Xiao Hang continued to talk trash.

As a representative of true temperament, Westbrook even beat Jazz fans last year, and you, a little Asian, will not take it seriously. "FYM." A swear word burst out.

"Boom—" Westbrook's zombie jumper hit the iron again.

"Please hit back with a shot. Cursing is just a bitch's way to fight back." Xiao Hang continued to stimulate Westbrook.

Ade took off the rebound here and gave it to Xiao Hang.

Westbrook actually pressed the audience, it seems that Xiao Hang succeeded in angering Westbrook at the beginning.

Of course, this really wasn't Popovich's arrangement, but he praised Xiao Hang's behavior very much, and angering Westbrook is a very good way to fight Thunder.

Westbrook got on his body very roughly, and of course Xiao Hang was not afraid of all kinds of tough physical contact. He was taller and heavier.

Xiao Hang pushed it back directly with his butt, forced his back to pass through half the court, and then suddenly accelerated to rush towards Wei Shao's left hand. Young master killed on the right side.

Westbrook turned around to catch up and bumped into Ade. Xiao Hang faced Patterson, who was coming to defend, and directly rushed into the inside lane with his speed. With a throw, it can be said that Westbrook's face was lost.

Donovan called Westbrook to calm down on the scene, and asked George to play the next ball.Pickle catches the ball, faces Guy, and takes one step. Guy’s heel is not in good condition. He has just recovered from Achilles tendon inflammation. Recently, the Spurs have no one in the backcourt, and Gay's average playing time has suddenly increased from 25 minutes to 31 minutes.

George also made an emergency stop jumper and scored the Thunder's first point.

DeRozan's defensive task today is very easy. Opposite him is Robertson, who has just returned this season. Of course, the offensive end will be more difficult. Robertson's defensive efficiency this season is good, playing at the level before the serious injury.

Xiao Hang continued to control the ball and passed the ball to DeRozan who bypassed the screen. Facing the old Raptors player Patterson, he turned around directly, cut into the penalty area, and made a throw.

The ball bounced twice and missed. Westbrook easily grabbed the rebound under Adams' position and rushed up.

This is Westbrook's rhythm, relying on rebounds to directly kill the fast break.

The Spurs quickly returned to defense here, but the speed of Adelaide and Dajia is really not enough.

Fortunately, Xiao Hang defended here, maintaining the same speed as Westbrook, and the two entered the Spurs' backcourt together.

Westbrook took three steps directly, grabbed the ball with his right hand and pulled it back, it seemed that he wanted to directly pinch Xiao Hang to regain his previous face.

Xiao Hang is one of the few people in the league who can keep up with Westbrook. He also took off at this time, and stretched his hand towards the place where the dunk fell.

A dunk is not a shot, there is no so-called parabolic drop, let alone interfere with the ball.

Xiao Hang's big hand directly pressed on the ball, and the two forces confronted each other with the basketball as the medium.

If it is an ordinary defender, it must be inferior to Xiao Hang.

But Xiao Hang is a 6-foot-8, 215-pound forward. Even if you are black, Xiao Hang's strength is not in vain.

He directly pressed Westbrook down.

"Beep—" the whistle sounded.

All the fans booed the referee, it turned out that the referee called Xiao Hang a defensive foul.

It's obviously a good hat, so how could it be a foul?Xiao Hang went to complain, although he is a yellow race, but it can't be like this.

The referee is very straightforward. You have a pressing action to block the shot. It turns out that Xiao Hang used too much force just now. It seems that the action is to press down directly on the ball and press Westbrook down, instead of the traditional block.

In fact, Xiao Hang was also a little impatient in his heart. After he wanted to win Westbrook again through a duel of power, he started to spout trash talk, but he didn't expect that the words he had prepared came to his mouth but he couldn't spit them out.
