Chapter 296 The End of the First Scene
The Spurs' home stadium, the AT&T Center Arena, amidst the joyful cheers of the fans, the first game of the playoffs between the Spurs and the Warriors is still going on in an orderly manner.

Both Mark Jackson and Popovich are standing on the sidelines, conducting on-the-spot command in order to better run-in and try the team, and the respective benches behind them are completely different pictures at the moment.

On the home team's Spurs bench, Yang Ke, who was replaced, was watching the game while communicating with Green. The expressions of the other players were also very relaxed and calm.

In contrast, the atmosphere on the Warriors' bench was very solid. Thompson folded his hands on his chest and leaned on the chair with his eyes closed. It seemed that only in this way would his anxiety and uneasiness be reduced.

Curry, beside him, put a wet towel on his head, and looked forward with ecstasy, as if he was in deep thought.

The two players who performed the best in this game are like this, and the other players are naturally not so good, most of them just stare blankly at the field without saying a word.

"Although there is still nearly a quarter before the end of the game, the situation is actually very clear. The Warriors will swallow the first loss of the series at home to the Spurs. This ending is what most of us expected,"

Seeing that the progress of the game can no longer make waves, and the players who are a little hot on the news are not on the field, under the instruction of the director, Albert, the groom, no longer explains the game in detail, but shifts his attention to the two sides of the game itself.

"Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry's performance in this game is not bad, but even so, it doesn't help. Looking at them, they seem a little disheartened?"

"What you said is wrong. Although they were indeed hit and baptized tonight, they will not be defeated in one blow with their ability to withstand it. Otherwise, the Warriors would not be led by them at the end of the regular season. Going to catch up and grab this playoff berth."

Steve Kerr used to be a player and he also experienced this situation, so he justified it from a player's point of view very fairly and objectively,
"I think that what they are doing now is more of a feeling of anxiety and confusion, such as: Is there anything I can do better in this game? Why can't I win? Wait."

Marv Albert didn't really think that Curry and the others collapsed in one game. He just wanted to raise a topic, so naturally he wouldn't argue about it any more.

Instead, he asked directly: "Steve, why do you think this game is played like this? Next game, how do you think the Warriors should play to have a chance of winning?"

"I think Clay and Stephen have already performed exceptionally well, and they should not be asked to do better! This is a team sport, and other players should also perform well."

Seeing Mark Jackson call a timeout and call the role players on the field to reprimand.Steve Kerr couldn't help being a little puzzled, and the words he was speaking were interrupted because of this.

"Indeed, no matter from the data or from the performance on the field, the other players of the Warriors seem to be out of shape tonight. I think Coach Mark should find some solutions to this."

Although Marv Albert is not as professional as Cole, this can still be seen no matter what.

Colton paused, and added: "Actually, the reason why the Warriors showed signs of defeat early is that there is indeed a part of the reason for the performance of the players, but more importantly, their tactics are too rigid."

After thinking about it, Marv Albert nodded and agreed: "Indeed, looking at the audience, even in the first half when the score was relatively tight, the Warriors did not make much tactical adjustments except for substitutions."

"It stands to reason that the Warriors coaching staff should be able to do much more than that."

Cole frowned slightly. He had some thoughts in his mind now, but because he was not Mark Jackson or a member of the Warriors coaching staff, he was still a little uncertain, so he didn't say much.

...............

There were no repeated stalemates, and no complicated time-outs. The game time of nearly one quarter disappeared in a mediocre way.

In the end, the Warriors lost to the Spurs at home with a score of 89:102. The best player of the game was won by Diaw, who performed comprehensively and scored a quasi-triple double.

After greeting his opponents in a very sportsmanlike manner, Yang Ke did not return to the player tunnel with the players, but stayed on the sidelines, where he will accept live interviews with reporters in front of HBC TV.

"Yang Ke, long time no see,"

Zhao Kai, the front reporter of HBC TV station, is an old friend of Yang Ke, and the two sides are no strangers at all, so he chatted with Yang Ke before the live broadcast connection started,
"Wait, you have to sign me. My brother is now your super fan. I don't know how many times I skipped class just to watch your game."

Yang Ke basically knows the staff of HBC TV Station in the United States. After nodding and waving to these old faces, he smiled and said to Zhao Kai: "Is my signature still missing? Although at that time The handwriting is indeed ugly, but it is actually written by me.”

"Don't mention it, I was robbed by the boss long ago."

Zhao Kai shook his head depressingly.

"Really? It seems that my signature, which I haven't practiced before, seems to be more popular?"

Yang Ke is also very familiar with Zhao Kai's supervisor, so it was not surprising at all. He took off his wet jersey casually, folded it a little, and put it on Zhao Kai's shoulder, "This jersey is more precious than a signature. , don’t get robbed again→_→”

"It stinks!"

Zhao Kai tilted his head and sniffed, then frowned, pretending to be disgusted.

"You don't want it? Well, give it back to me."

Seeing this, Yang Ke smiled and reached out to take the jersey back.

"It's a beautiful thought, if you give something away, there is still a possibility of going back."

Zhao Kai immediately hid to the side. This jersey is very precious to him in every way. It was just a joke, so Yang Ke can really take it back.

Holding the jersey tightly, Zhao Kai smiled and said, "Although it smells a little sweaty, don't worry, I can definitely bear it. Boys, who doesn't smell sweaty after exercise. Just pay attention to hygiene and take a shower later." .”

Just when Yang Ke wanted to say something back, he heard the signal instructions shouted by the director.

Yang Ke had worked part-time in a TV station for a while, so of course he knew what this meant, so he immediately stopped chatting with Zhao Kai.He adjusted his position and stood very close to Zhao Kai in front of the camera.

ps: After working for so long, I suddenly remembered the hole I dug before, and now I have to fill it in.

At present, I am looking for the feeling codeword...
