"Guys, we didn't lose the game because of any one player. We are a group. Don't always say words that are not conducive to unity!"
Nash continued to teach:
"Our goal is the championship. Losing one game proves nothing! Keep your spirits up and devote yourself to training!"
Today’s team practice was casual;
The team members each conducted additional training in shooting, strength...all aspects.
And Bai Qiang and Owen did not communicate, and the two of them were at odds——
No one has put down his or her arrogance and sought reconciliation from the other party.
…
A road trip is full of hardships.
Players not only have to travel hard, but also have to resist external factors.
There are about 10,000 fans sitting in the Golden One Arena.
Some of them came to cheer for the home team, while others came to see Irving and Harden——
Maybe he came to see Bai Qiang, who does whatever he wants in the NBA!
Half an hour before the game, Harden walked into the arena first and was greeted with boos from the audience.
He was already used to this kind of situation.
The regular season is okay, but the road trip in the playoffs is a nightmare.
Boo, you can boo as much as you want. After the game, some of you will cry.
The Nets' goal today is very clear, to accept the victory and return in triumph!
Then running into the court were Ou Shenxian, Harris, Brown, Jordan...
Bai Qiang was at the end of the team, jogging into the field and starting to warm up.
On the other end of the court, Kings players were also warming up.
Bai Qiang could roughly tell the names of these people, but he only knew the names.
Other than that, there is no intersection.
At this time, the Kings had not yet made a big trade, and Haliburton had not yet gone to the Pacers;
Likewise, Sabonis didn't come to Sacramento.
Bai Qiang dribbled to the midline and shot a long three-pointer;
Fortunately, the ball hit the net on the first try.
Almost every center player will have a defender dream!
He did a few push-ups on the midline and a few leg raises.
You must keep your sports cells active so that you won't get injured easily during the game.
On the eve of the game, Nash encouraged the players on the bench.
"Today's opponent is a tough opponent. Although it seems ordinary, we must not underestimate the opponent. Cheer up, guys!"
Most of the Kings' players are young guys with plenty of energy.
They will attack and defend tirelessly.
The shortcomings are also obvious, lack of game experience, which is the price of youth.
As long as the Nets strive for victory steadily and don't underestimate the enemy, victory is in sight.
"Bai, judging from the information before the game, the Kings' center position is Marvin. You have to take good care of him!"
"Don't worry, coach! I won't let you down!"
Bai Qiang glanced at Ou Shenxian, and then drank a bottle of Gatorade——
Energy drinks are used to replenish the body's indispensable fluids to avoid fainting during the game.
Owen's face was dark, it seemed that he still had no intention of forgiving Bai Qiang.
Really, why bother?
No matter how awesome you Shenxian Ou is, you can only be the second or third boss.
Now that someone is helping you win the second championship ring in your career, just be secretly happy!
What qualifications do you have if you are still showing off here?
Even if you were given unlimited firepower, you wouldn't be able to lead the team to win the championship!
The game started, and the starting players of both teams entered the court one after another.
The Nets' point guard Harden, shooting guard Ou Shenxian, small forward Harris, power forward Green, and center Bai Qiang.
The Kings' point guard Joseph, shooting guard Hield, small forward Fox, power forward Barnes, and center Bagley III.
The head coaches of both teams value the offensive abilities of their players;
Therefore, some of the players on the lineup do not belong to that position.
For example, Fox is positioned as a defender, but he plays small forward in the team.
Fortunately, in today's small ball era, this kind of thing is quite common.
There are also many potential players sitting on the Kings' bench.
Such as Haliburton, Whiteside, Meitu.
All in all, apart from game experience, the Kings do not lose to the Nets in other aspects.
Bai Qiang and Bagley jumped the ball. For Bai Qiang, this was not difficult.
After all, the talent is there, there's no debate about it.
Bai Qiang successfully passed the ball to Harden, and the Nets' offense began.
Facing Joseph's defense, Harden didn't have much difficulty.
In the same position, it is extremely difficult to defend against Harden's offense.
"You're still too young!"
Harden whispered, then changed his hands to dribble, and Baifo easily passed Joseph.
Young players always have to experience setbacks in order to continue to grow.
Harden rushed to the inside and saw that the defensive player had been blocked by Bai Qiang's huge body.
"Good job, man!"
While praising his teammates, he scored a layup and scored two points.
The Nets' first score was completed by Harden.
The ball transitioned and the Kings attacked.
Bai Qiang twisted his neck, moved his muscles a few times, and began to wait for the incoming enemy.
Joseph passed half court and passed the ball to Barnes on one side.
At the same time, Bagley was also asking for the ball inside. He wanted to test the Asian's strength.
The media always likes to exaggerate the actual publicity, so that there will be traffic!
And many players in the league have also heard of Bai Qiang’s deeds——
A dunk madman, a fighting madman, a defensive madman!
Bai Qiang was overjoyed. He was eager to show off his strength, so this is what happened——
How can you not eat the fat meat that is brought to your mouth!
After Bagley caught the ball, he decisively chose a post-up single.
Bai Qiang originally wanted to use his force directly to embarrass his opponent;
But then I thought, why not put him under the basket and reward him with a big shot;
Doesn't this better reflect his terrifying defense?
Just do it!
Bagley exerted his strength, but Bai Qiang was forced to retreat step by step, "unable to resist"!
"The media is indeed lying, this is nothing more than that!"
Bagley was secretly happy, thinking that he had taken control of Bai Qiang.
"Tum!"
"Tum!"
Pushing all the way to the basket, Bagley turned around and tried to dunk with both hands——
If you ignore this Asian guy who is being praised by the media, he might also become popular.
"boom!"
"Fuck your basketball dreams!"
Bai Qiang took off his disguise, jumped up high, and hit his face with a big blow!
Bagley never expected that Bai Qiang would do this when he was finishing.
Losing his balance in the air and being hit hard in the face by a basketball, Bagley was in great pain.
"shit!"
He fell to the ground, cursing damn Bai Qiang.
On the other hand, Bai Qiang controlled the rebound and took advantage of the Kings' unpreparedness to pass the ball to the frontcourt.
Ou Shenxian caught the ball, pulled the lever to finish, and finished it in one go!
