The invincible kryptonite of basketball

"Three points~~"

The eyes of the fans at the scene were all on this shot, and the host at the scene also lengthened his tone.

"Shh!"

"Got. it!"

Accompanied by the crisp sound of the basketball hitting the net and the shouts of the commentator with a heavier tone, the scene was full of excitement.

Tang Tian made consecutive three-pointers!

"Hey! It smells so good!"

The fans on the hotline instantly floated a wave of neat rhythm.

ps: Thank you for your rewards, I don’t have time to sort them out today, I will add thanks later.

364章 关键2分（7/10，DSALEX777万赏加更！）

Two consecutive blocks, two consecutive three-pointers.

A wave of 6-0 narrowed the point difference to 1 point.

Are the Spurs in poor form? Yes.

Can Tang Tian alone turn the situation around? no!

When the offense is out of shape, what can really solve the problem is defense!

Strong, even overwhelming defense!

Bledsoe's attack in the frontcourt was interfered by Dior, and after Dior took the defensive rebound, he immediately spotted Tang Tian who was about to fall.

A long pass across the field, Tang Tian jumped up after receiving the ball and dunked with both hands to score!

37 is better than 36!

The Spurs overtook the score!

Tang Tian personally launched a wave of 8-0 attacks!

Really fragrant!

Really fragrant!

De Nagro hurriedly reached out and called a timeout.

When Tang Tianxia was on the field, he was greeted with overwhelming cheers from the audience.

Many of them remembered one thing.

For Tang Tian, ​​at the beginning of this season, he scored 20+ points in ten consecutive games!

He is not only good at defense!

It's not that he can't score!

Although there are not many offensive methods, it can be terrifying to score points!

Popovich felt the enthusiasm of the fans, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Now it seems that the previous attempt to let the fans focus on Tang Tian's defense, thus lowering Tang Tian's market value, was in vain.

What Holt asked him to do, he couldn't do it at all.

Tang Tian used his strength to prove his importance.

He is too lazy to do it now. Since Holt doesn't want to pay the luxury tax, let Holt and Foster handle this headache!

Anyway, it's really a shame, he's just the head coach of the team now, isn't he!

The Spurs' defense was not weak in the first place. Driven and infected by Tang Tian, ​​the team played a suffocating defense in the second quarter.

Crawford scored 7 points in a row in the second quarter, but in the latter part of the quarter, they only scored 7 points in total!

The Spurs beat the Clippers 40 to 14 in a single quarter!

Leading by 23 points at halftime!

The fans on the hotline are fried.

"This is so fake! Breaking down in one section?"

"Haha, one person's defense is indeed limited, but you all forget that defense is the thing that can best drive the state of teammates!"

"But the Spurs are really excited every time they play against the Clippers!"

"It's so heartwarming!"

"This Clippers team is really poisonous. It's obviously not bad, but it just can't fight tough battles, and can only play with the wind."

"Paul is limited by his height and it is difficult to score explosively. Griffin's style of play is more suitable for exhibition games. Both cores can't be hardened. How can you make this team hard?"

"It seems to make sense..."

"It is reasonable to say that teams led by NBA point guards are very few successful, because when it comes to life and death, it depends on who can score more."

"The person with the highest score wins the game. Even in the finals between the Pistons and the Spurs, it was the stable output of Duncan and Ginobili that helped the Spurs win the championship."

……

The fans on the hotline talked a lot, but they didn't grasp the most critical point.

The root cause of the current Clippers' inability to play against the wind lies in their defense.

When the offense is open, they are invincible, and the state of the players can cover up defensive problems.

But once the offense is blocked, their defensive problems are fully exposed.

Back in the third quarter, the Spurs beat the Clippers 30-9 in a single quarter.

The Clippers made 10 turnovers in this quarter!

Their mentality was obviously wrong, and their habits collapsed.

After three quarters, the score on the court was 96 to 52.

With a huge difference of 44 points, this time Popovich gave face and replaced the full bench one after another.

De Nagro replaced Paul and Griffin at the beginning of the fourth quarter. He obviously didn't want the team to lose too badly.

But with a huge point difference, Paul and Griffin obviously didn't want to play, and were forced to stay on the court in extremely poor condition.

Paul was able to steal the ball by Joseph, and Griffin even suffered 2 consecutive big caps from Aaron Baynes.

And looking at Baines' sturdy body, Griffin didn't dare to say anything.

After playing for more than five minutes, the point difference not only did not narrow, but passed 50 points.

At this time, like an ostrich, Denagro stretched out his arms and buried his head in his chest, feeling a little desperate.

The point difference has been fluctuating around 50 points. When approaching the midfield, De Colo found his touch and hit 2 consecutive three-pointers from the outside, bringing the point difference to 58 points.

In the last attack of the Clippers, Paul adjusted his emotions, shook off Joseph and went inside and made a layup.

The Spurs missed the last attack, and the score on the court was finally fixed at 126 to 70.

"Fxck! As a Clippers fan, I can't complain anymore!"

"The Spurs really have a grudge against the Clippers. They can score such exaggerated scores every time..."

"The last time it was the playoffs, this regular season is going to be like this."

"I really don't blame the Spurs this time. Didn't you see that Popovich was on the full bench in the fourth quarter? It's the Clippers who didn't live up to it!"

"De Nagro also let Paul and Griffin play a full quarter in the fourth quarter. He is a complete piece of trash! Get out!"

"But in fact, De Nagro is okay. Paul's 2 points at the last moment are very important."

"Yes, I dared to fight hard during garbage time and successfully avoided 58."

"Cannon Fist Warning!"

"You are really poisonous! As Paul Honey, I am really powerless now. I hope he can prove himself in the playoffs."

"You still hope that their record in the regular season is better or worse, otherwise they will meet the Spurs..."

……

Tang Tian still only played 25 minutes in this game, but it was obviously different from the previous games in that it was 25 minutes in three quarters, and he didn't play 30 because the last quarter was pure garbage time.

And his performance is also the most efficient in recent games.

10投8中，三分球7中6，22分3助攻2抢断3封盖。

A big victory over the Clippers and an end to their three-game losing streak is the best news for the Spurs after the All-Star break.

And this is just the beginning.

Two days later, the Spurs played at home against the 76ers, who beat them at home just last week.

这一场比赛唐天近半个月来上场时间首次过了30分钟，他得到16分6助攻1抢断3封盖，帮助马刺队103比91战胜对手。

Followed by another back-to-back home game against the Celtics and Trail Blazers.

Tang Tian played 30 minutes in these two games, and played 38 minutes against the Celtics because of the fierce competition.

一场23分4助攻4抢断4封盖，一场15分2助攻2抢断3封盖。

The Spurs also ended up winning these two games.

Popovich's adjustments were immediate. After Tang Tian's playing time was released, the Spurs ended their three-game losing streak and directly ushered in a wave of four consecutive victories!

And after this wave of four consecutive victories, they also reopened the record gap with the Thunder, and once again came to the first position in the Western Conference!

Chapter 365 Signing a contract with McGrady (8/10, asking for a monthly ticket)

The time came to late March unknowingly, and the pace of the playoffs was fast approaching unknowingly.

The Spurs flew to Washington for their second meeting of the season.

But this time, in addition to the competition, they also have a task to visit the White House.

According to NBA practice, the champion will get an opportunity to be interviewed by the president once a year.

This year is no exception.

Team players, coaching staff, and general manager Buford are all on the invite list.

They arrived in Washington one day earlier, and took a car to the White House early the next morning.

After more than an hour's drive, they had already seen the iconic dome of the White House.

As for the White House, Tang Tian has been here many times in his previous life, and this place is already very familiar to him.

The bus drove in from the south gate, and after stopping inside, the team members got off the bus one after another.

"This is the lawn of the South Courtyard, where the president's group photo with important guests is usually taken."

When they get off the bus, there will be a special person to guide them, and there will be an explanation at the front.

An interview is just a process, what is more important is a visit.

As far as the White House is concerned, except for some places that are not open to the public, it is actually a very well-known tourist attraction.

Some action movies in the United States, such as "The White House Has Fallen" and "Shocking Crisis", are filmed with this background.

"The trees here are all planted by the president or the first lady. The magnolia was planted by President Andrew Jackson more than 100 years ago to commemorate his deceased wife."

As the only executive residence of the president of the United States for a century, there will always be many stories here.

Most of the team's attention is on the magnolia flower that the commentator said.

At this moment, Tang Tian could vaguely hear Popovich and Buford communicating behind him, and the content of the communication was vaguely related to the contract.

At this point in time, the trade deadline, the buyout deadline, etc. have passed, and the lineup needs to be changed?
