Chapter 961 Duncan Has Been a Little Irritable Lately!

The regular season matchup between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Spurs has attracted a lot of attention.

The Seattle SuperSonics are now first in the Western Conference, and the Spurs are third from last in the Western Conference. In terms of rankings, the two teams are not at the same level.

But when these two teams, the Spurs and SuperSonics, face off, how can they be defined by ranking?

It can be said that the SuperSonics and Spurs are definitely the most topical opponents in the Western Conference in the past five years.

The Sonics and Spurs have been at odds since the Sonics were still in the Ray Allen era.

Mainly because Ray Allen's SuperSonics were badly beaten by Bowen's Spurs.

After that, when it came to Ye Si's supersonic speed, the Spurs were a little miserable.

After Yees came to the SuperSonics, the Spurs and SuperSonics have played more than 20 games in the regular season and playoffs in the past few years. It can be said that the two teams have played against each other more times than any of the three men in the NBA in the last few years. A group of matches.

In the past three years, the Spurs have claimed to be the strongest Spurs in Spurs history, but every time they encounter the SuperSonics, whether it is due to luck or other reasons, they basically do not take advantage.

With an absolute advantage in strength, the Spurs have defeated the SuperSonics twice in the regular season in these three seasons.

In the playoffs, the Spurs and SuperSonics met twice in the past three years, and both ended in failure.

Last season, the Spurs suffered what is known as the worst defeat in basketball history.

This failure directly caused Bowen, known as one of the best defensive players in NBA history, to quit the NBA with immense regret.

According to the renderings of the national media before the start of the game between the SuperSonics and the Spurs.

The Sonics are the Spurs' mortal enemy.

What are the slogans of these media experts and reporters?

Although the thorns fall three times, the sound of death will definitely thorn!

Even if the Spurs try their best to make it to the playoffs this year, even if the Spurs are going to fail this year, even if the Spurs lose all their games this year, they will go all out when facing the SuperSonics. The Spurs and Popovich Definitely going to slap Yes and SuperSonics in the face!

It is no longer possible for the Spurs to take revenge on the SuperSonics in terms of results this season.

With the Spurs' current strength, no one expects them to beat the Sonics.

But to slap the Sonics in the face, yes, to slap the Sonics in the face does not require defeating the Sonics.

As long as Rondo is not the scoring leader in this game, then Yes can slap the Sonics in the face.

Letting Popovich lead the Spurs without Bowen and without a soul to defeat the SuperSonics is indeed difficult for Popovich, but asking Popovich to find a way to defend Rondo is not Is it forcing someone to do something difficult?

If you can't do this, then don't talk about the head coach with the strongest strength in the NBA.

Moreover, Rondo's strength is so rubbish. If you, the most powerful head coach in the NBA, can't handle Rondo, you are too embarrassed to be the number one head coach in terms of hard power, right?

The game between the SuperSonics and the Spurs is meaningless in terms of ranking.

But the attention on this game is really amazing.

The game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Spurs is on November 17. On this day, there are still many strong teams competing.

There was even a focus battle between the once powerful Rockets and the Suns. The Lakers, Heat, Cavaliers, Warriors, Bulls, Thunder, Clippers, these popular teams also appeared.

But the combined attention of these games may not be as good as the SuperSonics and Spurs.

Even after those games before, Kobe Nash, James Wade, O'Neal Deron, Beasley Curry, Paul Griffin,

Yang Shaowei, everyone ended the game interview immediately, returned to the locker room, and turned on the TV.

If you want to slap Yes in the face from the perspective of scoring more than Rondo, superstars such as Kobe, Iverson, Anthony, Nick Young, etc. can do it.

But tactically, there are not many head coaches in the entire league who can do this by lowering Rondo's score and thereby slapping Yes.

Regarding Rondo, many head coaches are very hesitant and don't know what kind of defensive strategy to adopt.

Just like when a primary school student goes to the NBA, you know that this primary school student is very weak, but he can always make shots. What defensive strategy do you think you should use?

Therefore, many people are curious about what kind of defensive strategy Popovich will propose for these head coaches in the league.

Seriously, don't say it's these people.

Ye Si was actually very curious.

Regarding the public opinion before this game, if Popovich was not the head coach of the US team, he might not care.

But since he is the head coach of the American team, whether it is a position that Romar does not want or what, in short, since Popovich is the head coach of the Dream Team, he has actually become the leader in the American coaching world, regardless of Is it to prove that his position is justifiable, or to repair his lost reputation.

He will attack Rondo in this game.

Yes now really regrets saying that he made Rondo the most successful scoring champion.

He really underestimated Rondo's confidence and shame.

He feels that he needs to give Rondo more trust so that Rondo can realize how strong he is and Rondo can score more resolutely.

From the current point of view, he actually does not need to inject blood into Rondo like this. Rondo's own self-confidence is enough to go crazy with him.

Even if he doesn't say that Rondo can become the most successful scoring champion in the NBA.

Rondo also really believes that he can become the scoring champion.

He is not afraid of being slapped in the face.

The key is that this makes Rondo the target of public criticism.

Popovich is not a good person. Some of the strategies that other coaches cannot use against Rondo, Popovich will not have any psychological barriers to use.

Yes is now very convinced that Popovich will never let Rondo go in this game.

This is definitely not an easy game for Rondo.

November 17, 2009, Key Arena, Seattle.

This game between the SuperSonics and the Spurs is about to take place.

For Sonics fans, the Spurs will always be a special teammate.

Five years ago, when the Sonics were beaten to death by the Spurs, they really didn't expect that in just five years, they would be able to complete a counterattack against the Spurs.

When the SuperSonics and Spurs met, it was the first time that the rankings of the two sides were so disparate.

And the reason for the disparity is that the Supersonic speed is too high and the Spurs are too low.

This makes Sonics fans very excited and excited.

"Every time the Seattle SuperSonics meet the Spurs, the game never disappoints!"

Barkley said with a smile, listening to the wild cheers of the SuperSonics fans at the scene.

"The Spurs without Bowen did have a lot of problems this season. Bowen played a great role in the Spurs. In addition, the change in the overall style of the league has posed more challenges to the Spurs. If we talk about last season The Spurs are the strongest in history, so although the Spurs this season are not the weakest, they are definitely the toughest, and the Seattle SuperSonics, their record and performance this season are incredible."

Although he is not supporting Yes and the SuperSonics, Kenny Smith can't say anything against his will regarding the performance of Yes and the SuperSonics this season.

Especially now that he was listening to Rondo's hammering sound on the court, he couldn't say anything against his will to Yes.

How much strength and outstanding performance does it take for such a player to become the first in the league in scoring and at the same time his team ranks first in the league?

It's not fifteen, it's second. You're right.

"You are all arguing about who is the No. 1 player, Barkley, Pippen or me. I can tell you responsibly that Rondo is the No. 1 player in the world. Barkley and Pippen are exaggerating that they are the No. 1 player. When fans are fans, they need very exciting words and emotions, and I need a lot of exaggerated words. Sometimes our language and words are too beautiful, which will make you feel sick and don't believe it, but Rajon Rondo, he There is no need to speak or write, he only needs to raise his hand, and you will hear his highest praise for Yes, and you will believe it."

I truly believe it.

Many people say that TNT's live broadcast of Rondo's shooting training before the game is the highest compliment to Yes.

That's really true.

Rondo's pregame shooting drills are now the most entertaining and most watched workouts in sports around the world.

It's not just the audience commentators who are watching intently.

Popovich is also looking very seriously now.

As one of the best head coaches in the NBA, he never thought that one day he would have to defend such a player!

It's not that he likes to swear, it's just that this is really unbelievable.

It is said that Yes supported Rondo to win the scoring title this season, which is a mockery of other scorers in the entire league.

But in his view, it's also a mockery of other coaches across the league.

I just want to support a garbage player that you once didn't bother to develop special tactics for him. I want to see if you will put down your pride and develop special defensive tactics for him.

As an NBA head coach, it is really hard to make special tactics for a player who is almost at the elementary school level on the offensive end.

It's okay if you can really defend, but if you can't defend with your specialized defensive tactics, then you are simply ruining your own job and becoming a laughing stock.

And this is why the Sonics' opponents in front of them also have famous coaches, but these famous coaches tacitly ignore Rondo.

As for head coach Rondo, he is just a piece of shit with a bad mouth. Let alone sticking to him, even if he gets close, he will stink all over himself. The best choice is to ignore him and let him score as he pleases.

Anyway, Rondo can score 40 points in a game. If you don't let Rondo score it, with Yes's organizational ability, Yes can also let others score it, and others may score more.

Yes, the head coaches in the league have reached a consensus.

That is, they support their team's players to score points with the purpose of beating Rondo.

But I will never specifically target Rondo's scoring.

This is the best option.

If he hadn't been morally kidnapped by these bad guys, he wouldn't have cared about Rondo and would have looked out of sight.

However, who the hell made him the head coach of the Dream Team, and who made him lose so miserably in the playoffs last season.

Now Rondo's banging shooting training before the game seems to be telling him that I am poop, but even if you know that I am poop and know that I stink, you still weirdly run over to study why I stink so much.

Thinking of this, Popovich felt very, very uncomfortable.

His chest felt like it was exploding with anger.

As the only person in the entire league who will target Rondo this season, Popovich has regarded this game, and even all the games between San Antonio and Seattle in this series, as the most humiliating game of his career.

It's the kind of game that must be forgotten after it's played.

Damn it!

Um?

Ginobili, who was sitting on the bench, thought he was delusional.

The game just started and Bobo started to curse?

The game has just started and Bobo is so angry?

It seems that Bobo has not been in a good mood these two days?

Speaking of which, shouldn't the Spurs' start today be considered good?

It's been a long time since I've seen Tim beat his opponent with a jump ball.

It has to be said that after Milicic, one of the strongest jumpers in the league last season, turned into a mobile pork belly, he really traveled to provide warmth to NBA veterans.

Duncan himself was a little surprised.

Surprised, Duncan showed no mercy.

Now there is no Bruce in the game against the SuperSonics. The Spurs are underdog. There are no such opportunities to waste, and every opportunity must be seized.

After receiving a pass from Parker who was cornered by Yes, Duncan quickly passed the ball to Keith Bogans outside the three-point line.

This is the replacement for Bruce that the Spurs hired this season. The oval braised egg looks very similar to Bruce in touch and feel, but the level of offense makes him want to scold him.

He admits that he's been a little cranky lately.

However, he still wants to say it!

CTMD's Bogans, if he threw it from outside the three-point line early, it would be over!

Although Bogans is a bit superfluous, he has the ability to make three-pointers. He has to take one step to face the defensive player's difficult pull-up jump shot without taking a shot in the open space.

But it was a hit anyway.

This also gave Duncan a sigh of relief.

With the Spurs' current record and the Spurs' current situation, he is really under a lot of pressure.

He has never faced the Spurs this badly in his career.

He is needed everywhere, and there is a shortage of people everywhere, but there is only one of him, and he is old...

Duncan was relieved on the offensive end.

When I returned to the defensive end, I saw Stephen Jackson, the team's best defensive player on the perimeter, put down Yes and ran in front of Rondo.

Flower Q!

This time I wasn’t scolding gai in my heart, I was scolding him directly!

He has worked so hard and struggled so hard to win a game, but the team still needs to be interfered with like this!

Damn it, Rondo is also equipped with Jackson's dedicated defense!

Jackson went to Rondona, and Yes and Durant were left to Tony and Bogans to tremble?

It's already difficult for him to lead Blair inside to fight Milicic and Millsap.

Now he is required to help defend Durant and Yes...

Duncan's heart was bleeding.

Popovich's heart was bleeding on the sidelines.

Now he was so poor that he wished he could break one dollar in half and spend it in half, but now, he spent 10 dollars to buy a piece of shit!

A swipe!

Seeing the ball thrown by Rondo escape Jackson's fingers and hit the net hollowly, Popovich slowly opened his mouth on the sidelines.

What’s more uncomfortable than buying a piece of shit with precious 10 yuan is that accidentally, the piece of shit is directly stuck on your face...
