After finishing the game with the Warriors, after a two-day break, the Spurs returned to their home game to welcome the Heat.
The Heat's current record of 10 wins and 2 losses is not much worse than the Spurs.
The two teams with the best records in the east and the west are also opponents of last season's finals. Such a matchup has attracted much attention.
This time it was the Heat that laughed to the end.
The team's new aid Ray Allen became the game's biggest winner.
He made two consecutive three-pointers at the last moment to help the Heat win 103 to 97.
The Spurs' 12-game winning streak was ended, but Tang Tian's performance is still very eye-catching. He scored 10 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks.
Mini five pairs in three consecutive games!
The outcome is not so important at this time.
Mini five doubles, this is very rare in the entire history of NBA history, and even the data can be counted with the fingers!
There are only 2 players who can complete more than 2 times!
One is "AK47" Kirilenko, who has completed 3 times in his entire career.
The other is Olajuwon, the "big dream", and he completed 6 times.
But now, Tang Tian is not a career, but has played the data of the mini five doubles in 3 consecutive games!
After the Spurs press conference, Popovich took Tang Tian to attend.
As soon as the press conference started, a reporter mentioned this matter.
"really?"
This is Tang Tian's true first reaction.
He is now devoted to studying how to maximize the no-fly zone's capabilities, and he really didn't pay attention to the data.
"That's really good."
After receiving a positive response from the reporter, he said with a smile.
"Will you continue this record in the next game against the Lakers?" The reporter asked.
"Continue? No, I don't care about the data. I only care about the team's winning or losing. We just lost the game. That's not what I considered."
Tang Tian said modestly.
But he is also telling the truth. This no-fly zone has just been exchanged, and opponents may not think that his blocking ability will suddenly become so strong.
The history of the Mini Five Doubles has so few data, not that those people are not as good as their defensive ability, but that their defense is already very good.
It's not difficult to steal 5 but blocks, opponents know that you can cover them, who would challenge you with a silly mind?
So in the next game, he wanted to get this kind of data again.
This can be seen from the heat to 5 to the heat.
Popovich glanced at Tang Tian at this time, this guy is very low-key tonight.
"Coach, are you surprised by Tang's performance? This kind of statistic is played in three consecutive games." The reporter turned his question to Popovich at this time.
"No, he is actually a defensive player." Popovich said.
"Defensive player?" The reporter asked.
"Yes, don't be fooled by his scoring performance in the previous games, the best defensive player is his most likely goal." Popovich said with a smile.
There was a commotion among the reporters,
There are very few outside players who have won the best defensive player in NBA history. There are only four people in the entire NBA history. "Gloves" Payton, Michael Jordan, Elvin Robertson Double back player), Ron Artest.
Popovich really dare to say this!
And this is the first time he said such a big talk in front of the media!
It seems that Tang Tian wanted to be low-key, and Popovich would not let him be low-key!
However, Popovich's words are actually a pun. On the one hand, he is sure of Tang Tian's defense. On the other hand, although the defense is very popular with coaches, it is not valuable.
When the defensive label covers Tang Tian ’s first ten scoring performances, his value in the free market will be relatively low.
Popovich's words in the post-game interview also became the title of ESPN's report after the game.
"Best defensive player, why not?"
This kind of title is also full of gimmicks. Compared to scoring 20+ consecutively, the topic brought by three consecutive mini five doubles is obviously much larger.
On the second day after the game with the Heat, the Lakers flew to San Antonio.
The two sides will usher in the second match of the season in a day.
The Lakers this season can be described as an absolute "legendary" season.
The formation of F4 was infinitely promising, but as a result Nash was injured and could not be played, losing all preseason.
At the beginning, the fans also said that it was a matter of running in, and the preseason did not matter.
But following the start with 1 win and 4 losses, the final loss to the Spurs also became the last straw that crushed Mike Brown.
Brown was dismissed by the management, and the temporary head coach JB Bickerstaff served as the temporary head coach 4 wins and 1 loss.
The team just seemed to be on the right track. Following the management, they found the former Nash teacher, Mike D'Antoni, who was fired by the Knicks not long ago.
D'Antoni went to the Lakers to fight and run tactics. As a result, the Lakers started with four old arms and old legs. Howard can keep up with him.
The team's current record of 6 wins and 8 losses, hovering on the edge of the playoffs.
Injuries and injuries continue to occur, the team has a lot of running-in problems, and the defense is completely distorted ...
It was not a whim for reporters to ask questions at the press conference. In the face of such a Lakers team, Tang Tian really had the opportunity to continue his mini five doubles performance.
The Lakers' poor situation has become the focus of media reporters.
Their pre-match training attracted the attention of many media including ESPN and TNT.
Kobe applied ice to the ankles half an hour before the end of training.
When the training was over, he took off the ice pack and got up to say hello to his teammates.
After the training, the reporter soon surrounded him.
"Is the team confident to win the Spurs tonight?" The first question asked by reporters is relatively normal.
"Of course, our recent performance is not very good, we need such a victory."
"You mentioned the team's poor performance recently ~ www.novelhall.com ~ So how do you win this game?" But the second question is very aggressive.
"Fighting, no matter who the opponent is, in my dictionary, this team dictionary does not admit the word lost."
Kobe ignited fighting spirit when he said this.
"You will be playing against Tang tonight. He has performed very well on the defensive end recently, and Popovich has publicly stated that he can compete for the best defensive player of the season.
The reporter then asked.
"Don?"
After seeing the reporter nod, Kobe smiled, and the scene of playing the Drew League together unconsciously appeared in his mind.
"Yes, I know him. He has the strength to compete for the best defensive player, but he can't prevent me." Bryant said proudly in his eyes. Remember the site's website, www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or enter "" on Baidu to enter this site
