The Godfather of Basketball

George was sprayed with saliva and stood there for a while before returning to the locker room.

Over there, Tang Tian was analyzing some details of the first half with a tactical board.

The rest of the Nets were listening, and he felt like he was being quarantined.

The intermission time is approaching, Tang Tian went back to the office early, at this time Butler came over and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Why, did you get scolded by the coach?"

Although there is some distance from the locker room, the passage is like a microphone. Even if they can't hear clearly, the people in the locker room can probably hear what is going on outside.

George didn't speak, it wasn't a very glamorous thing.

"Don't take it to heart, the coach is that kind of person. Sometimes he can make people feel very touching, sometimes he can make people feel very hateful, but no matter what he does, it is for our good. If I was in the Cavaliers. If it weren't for the coach , may still be just an ordinary role player now."

George was taken aback by Butler's expression. He knew that Butler had been with the Cavaliers before, but only for 2 seasons.

"If it weren't for the coach, maybe I would already be playing in the CBA." Yi Jianlian has become more and more cheerful in recent years, and now he also came over to joke.

"What CBA?" George looked puzzled.

"The Chinese Basketball League is the second best basketball league in the world." Yi Jianlian explained.

George was taken aback, but Butler next to him couldn't help laughing.

"This guy is always playing with us in Amway China's basketball league."

George also smiled. He looked at the other people around him and suddenly felt that the atmosphere here was much better than when he was in Indiana.

"Hey, guys, show some energy in the second half. If you lose, the coach will really be furious!" The intermission time is coming soon, Butler shouted when he got up, and stretched out his hand when he shouted.

After Deron left, Butler naturally succeeded him as the boss of the locker room.

At this moment, other team members stretched out their hands one after another.

George and Butler chatted a few words, and their mood improved a lot, and now they also stretched out their hands.

"The Nets!"

"come on!"

Tang Tian came out of the office, heard the shouts from the locker room, and saw a group of excited players inside, most of his anger disappeared. He went in to greet the players, and then led the players along the aisle to the match schedule.

There was a lot of noise outside.

"George! Come on!" At this moment, a spectator shouted towards this side of the passage.

Tang Tian looked up and saw a fat fan wearing the No. 13 jersey, waving towards him.

When he saw George looking up and seeing him, he shook the jersey with both hands, and finally gave him a thumbs up.

It seems that this should be a die-hard fan of George.

This is just a small episode. After returning to the schedule, the second half of the game will start soon.

Tang Tian gave George a lesson at halftime, but he still let George start in the second half.

"LeBron's breakthrough is the main tactic of the Cavaliers. Jimmy, Wade's three-pointer is not accurate. You see the opportunity to double-team, and others keep an eye on their defenders. We must start to chase the point difference in the third quarter. Come back, understand?"

"clear!"

"Go! Go!"

The adjustment of the midfield allowed the players of the Nets to regain their fighting spirit. At the moment, everyone is gearing up to make a good name for themselves in the second half.

"The Nets players looked a little excited. I don't know what Don said to them during the intermission." Kenny Smith, the commentator in the stands, turned his head and said to Barkley.

This strong duel was broadcast live across the United States, and it was Barkley and Smith who explained it.

"Hey, man, it's not the first day you've met Don, and his chicken soup can cheer you up all night," Barkley said loudly.

Smith laughed for a while, but after laughing, he still couldn't help saying: "In fact, the performance of the Nets this season has a lot to do with Paul George's performance. If he can play at the level of last season, the team's record Not necessarily worse than the Cavaliers."

"His heart is in Los Angeles now, and this is just his transit point." Barkley really made no secret of his big mouth.

Smith didn't refute it either. The fans could tell that their professional commentary was more thorough.

While they were talking, the second half of the game had already started.

The Cavaliers go first.

Deron took the ball to the front court and handed the ball to James.

Tyronn Lue is not Blatter, his tactics are relatively simple, the core is to let James choose himself.

James extended his hand to direct, and Wade and Deron crossed and ran back by pick-and-roll.

However, their continuous running positions did not get a good shot.

What the fans at the scene can clearly feel is that the entire defensive strength of the Nets is increasing.

"Defend! Defend!"

Driven by the live DJ, the fans on the scene began to cheer for the home team.

Seeing that there was not much time left in the attack, James stretched out his hand again to signal his teammates to pull away, then faced George, changed direction continuously and accelerated to rush in.

George was very focused and grabbed the defensive position, but his confrontation was still much worse than James, and he was pressed and pushed in at the moment.

At this moment, Butler on the right double-teamed Wade directly.

After seeing it, James flicked the ball to Wade.

The ball was passed deep. After Wade received the ball, the Nets' weak-side help defense couldn't keep up. He got a very good open three-pointer.

He shot directly after aiming at the basket.

"boom!"

Three-pointers have never been Wade's forte, and he also failed to grasp the open space this time.

Jokic stuck Thompson under the basket and received a defensive rebound.

The Nets counterattacked, and Irving had already rushed across the frontcourt.

Jokic made a long pass, and Irving caught the ball to the frontcourt and scored a quick layup.

There was a burst of whistles and cheers.

The Nets came up with great momentum in the second half!

James held the ball to the frontcourt, and the Cavaliers still had no chance with the same tactics. James himself directly held the ball and pressed George to sit in.

George sank his focus to carry it, and he just pushed James out of the low position.

James felt that George's center of gravity was low, so he turned to the left and threw him off to the basket.

The Cavaliers' defense shrunk.

James spotted the man this time and threw the ball directly to Deron on the right.

Deron's three-pointer is more reliable than Wade's, and his position is also very good.

Deron is ready to catch and shoot.

"Snapped!"

But at this moment, a figure swooped out and broke the ball.

It's George!

He successfully predicted James' passing route, and his excellent wingspan allowed him to successfully steal the ball!

After stealing the ball, he ran forward without stopping.

Butler followed up from the weak side, and the two played against Wade in the frontcourt.

George finally gave the ball to Butler, who scored the ball successfully.

In the second half, the Nets played a wave of 4-0.

There were bursts of cheers.

Not only because of the outstanding performance of the Nets this wave, but also because they felt the difference in George.
