The Godfather of Basketball

The opening game of the season is very important to the team, and Tang Tian also went to San Antonio with the team, which can be regarded as psychologically cheering for the team.

Both Hathaway and Swift were taking care of the children, and this time it was the old subordinate Jones who accompanied Tang Tian.

San Antonio's ball market is still very good. It won the championship again after 9 years last season, bringing the city back to the hottest era of basketball. In addition, this is their home opening game, and there will be a championship ring awarding ceremony. The attendance rate of the hall reached 100%.

The photographer at the scene before the game found Tang Tian and gave him a close-up, which also attracted whistles and cheers from many audiences.

Most of this voice is recognition of him. After all, he is also the godfather of the dynasty with 7 championships in hand, but there are also some regrets. He once changed 3 teams and won 7 championships. He took a year off last season. As the boss, it is likely that his entire coaching career will come to an end.

A legend is still a legend, but it is somewhat regrettable.

Before the start of the game, the championship award ceremony was held on the spot.

Spurs owner Pete Holt and the team's new president, Adam Silver, presented their championship rings to the coaching staff and players.

Although it is not as luxurious as the Cavaliers Thunder before, the faces of the team members are still full of happiness, and the fans are also extremely excited.

This is San Antonio's fourth NBA championship ring. Their number of championships is second only to the Celtics, Lakers, Bulls and Rockets, and is the fifth most team in the league.

What's more interesting is that after the awards ceremony, the photographer specially showed a shot of Tang Tian on the sidelines, and a very interesting sentence was also written in the live broadcast: This is the first champion not belonging to Tang Tian in the past 8 years .

After the award ceremony, the fifth championship flag belonging to San Antonio was raised on the scene, and the cheers on the scene were loud.

After the award ceremony, the opening ceremony followed.

Because of the previous ceremony, the atmosphere of the fans at the scene was very high, and the cheers revealed a kind of natural self-confidence.

They are the defending champions and this is their home field.

Tang Tian was sitting in the auditorium at this time, feeling the atmosphere, just like he felt when he came to this arena in the playoffs last season. This is the goal he wants to build the Nets, and it is also the goal he needs to catch super object.

For the Nets, Deron and Joe Johnson are on the perimeter, Bojan Bogdanovic and Yi Jianlian are on the front line, and Lopez is the center.

For the Spurs, Parker and Green are on the outside, Leonard and Duncan are on the front line, and Splitter is the center.

Yi Jianlian and Split's jump ball, the former dialed the ball back to the Nets' half court, and the visiting team got the chance to attack first.

Kidd listened to Tang Tian's suggestion, and Deron advanced to the frontcourt and handed the ball to Lopez to organize.

This tactic is actually similar to the previous tactic of the Rockets Yao Mai. The center serves as the offensive axis, and other players either open up space or cut back to create opportunities. This is indeed more in line with the Nets in front of them.

Yi Jianlian and Bo Yang fell on both sides, and Deron and Joe Johnson made an empty cut.

Lopez gave the ball to Deron. Deron caught the ball and made a fake move to go out. After deceiving Parker, he used Lopez's pick-and-roll to kill the inside line and accelerated to squeeze past Splitter's layup.

Split's help defense was in place for this ball, but Deron did not gain the upper hand in the confrontation, the speed was faster, and the offense was completed very beautifully.

Popovich also showed a slightly surprised expression on the sidelines.

The Spurs and the Nets have played against each other many times in the past, and this is the first time he has seen Deron in the Nets period complete so cleanly.

It seems that Deron has got rid of the injury this season.

His reaction was quick, and when he saw this, he got up and reminded the players to pay attention to Deron when defending.

The Spurs attacked the frontcourt, a hammer tactic, and Green's weak side made a three-pointer.

Green hit the most three-pointers in history in the Finals last season, and he has continued that touch into this season.

Of course, this is also related to the Nets' own defensive ability. Whether it is Lopez, Bojan, or even Joe Johnson, the movement speed after being picked and rolled is not enough to form a complementary defense in the first place.

Tang Tian was thoughtful when he saw this. If he wanted to really have the strength to wrestle with a strong team, he still had to find a way to improve the team's talent.

The Nets attacked again, and Deron was obviously marked to death. Lopez made a mistake in the pass to Johnson. nets.

The Nets sent out the sideline ball and then attacked. Yi Jianlian took the initiative to cut under the basket and received Deron's second pass for a layup, which caused Duncan's thug foul.

Yi Jianlian seized the opportunity of two free throws and made both free throws.

The Nets lead 4-3.

Tang Tian nodded in satisfaction. Although there was still some tacit understanding in the coordination due to not playing much, the Nets were not as weak as others thought.

Leonard hit Bojan with his back in the frontcourt, turned around and hit a layup after being crushed by strength.

After experiencing the baptism of last season, he still quickly grew into a first-tier star in the league.

Yi Jianlian missed a three-pointer from the outside, and the Spurs counterattacked. Parker missed a top layup in the offense, but Leonard, who followed up, hit the ball into the basket.

Lopez didn't score in the singles with a turn around. Leonard pushed to the frontcourt to play back, attracted double-teams and then scored the ball to Duncan.

After experiencing the stalemate in the opening stage, the Spurs quickly adjusted their state and beat the Nets 6-0.

This wave of offensive wave also brought up the atmosphere of the home team.

"Defend! Defend!"

Driven by the DJ, the fans cheered one after another.

With Lopez's high support, the Spurs' defensive intensity was very high. They tried for a long time but had no chance to attack, and the ball was finally forced back to Deron's hands.

Looking at the situation on the field, the cheers of the fans on the scene became even stronger, and the huge shouts brought huge psychological pressure to the visiting team.

After Deron signaled to pull away at this time, he directly forced Parker, and the continuous crossover was very rhythmic. The last sudden start drove Parker to the basket, which was a forced shot.

"Snapped!"

"beep!"

Parker's thugs and the referee's whistle sounded almost simultaneously.

After the confrontation, Deron's shot kept the angle, and after hitting the board, it rebounded and entered the net bag.

This is a 2+1 score!

There was a shout of excitement from the Nets' bench, and Tang Tian couldn't help but clenched his fists.

This is the Deron he knows!

"A beautiful goal. How long has it been since we saw Deron perform so well?"

"For a long, long time, it seems that he finally recovered. This Nets team, with Deron like this, they are really not as fragile as they seem."

In the commentary, Jeff Van Gundy and Reggie Miller also became a little excited because of Deron's ball.
