122 to 105.

Popovich was still thinking about these two bloody numbers until he went to bed at night.

The Spurs, who lost the fourth most points in the league in the regular season, scored 122 points. They were perfect on the wings, allowed Link and Butler to score 60 points together.

All results point to the fact that it is almost impossible to curb the Grizzlies by defending.

Link's ability to create scoring opportunities is so strong that he can even wear Leonard's crotch. What else can he not do?

When he thought of Link, Popovich was very crazy and tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Every provocation, every trash talk, and even every exciting goal of the Grizzlies 2 will be played in Popovich's mind.

Link completely turned into Popovich's nightmare!

Thinking of these messy things, Popovich suddenly sat up and looked at the clock on the wall. It was already 3 am now!

This is the first time Popovich has developed insomnia after a defeat.

The old man then got up and poured himself a glass of water and calmed down.

The Grizzlies played well in the first game, not just the players, but the performance of the coach Jogel exceeded Popovich's expectations.

They took the lead in taking out a lineup of one, one, four small and one small, allowing the Grizzlies to take the initiative from the beginning.

Although he was behind in the first quarter, the Grizzlies quickly made adjustments and regained the situation.

From this point of view, the Spurs must be one big and four small in the next game.

Popovich must ensure that the Spurs have the most powerful offensive firepower from the beginning of the game.

Offensive firepower, offensive...

Popovich stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the room and looked down from the 28th floor to see the street view of Memphis.

If you want to conquer this city, defense is unreliable and you must rely on offense.

The Spurs lost so badly, in addition to being unable to defend, there is another reason that goals will always be blank for a period of time.

In the second and third quarters, the Spurs experienced the embarrassment of not getting a single point for several minutes. The Grizzlies seized these two window periods and widened the gap in one fell swoop.

If the score difference is widened by the Grizzlies, it will be difficult to reverse the situation.

Therefore, the key to the Spurs' second game winning is to avoid the emergence of the window period as much as possible.

Today, if the Spurs won, GDP should have surpassed Magicians, Jabbar and Cooper to become the three-man who won the most in the playoffs in NBA history.

The two groups of players have won 110 games in the playoffs now, and the Spurs can break the record as long as they win another game.

Unfortunately, the Grizzlies continued to postpone this record.

When he thought of this, Popovich couldn't help but clench his fists.

This year, all kinds of records and awards were won by the Grizzlies and Link. It seems that the entire league has become the Grizzlies' playground.

Now, the Spurs finally have a chance to break the league record, and of course Popovich doesn't want to let it go.

This is the moment of glory for the Spurs. As the Ivy League in this league, when the Spurs won the championship, the Grizzlies team didn't know whether they could survive.

In the bones, Popovich still has a kind of pride, a kind of unique pride temperament in the head coach of a great team.

The Spurs are one of the most successful teams in the 21st century. How can they give up if they lose one game! The Memphis Grizzlies, a mere Chinese player, cannot stop the great Spurs from continuing the legend!

Thinking of this, the old man lay back on the bed.

It's just 1 to 0, but nothing can represent it.

The next day, Popovich was worried that the players would be in poor condition due to the blow. However, when he went to the training ground in the afternoon, the Spurs players wearing training suits in the training ground practiced very seriously.

Popovich has always disliked to be on the court in advance in training because he firmly believed that if it came too early, players would not treat you as the head coach, but only treat you as a chore.

So for more than ten years, Popovich has become accustomed to appearing again after training begins.

Therefore, when he appeared on the training ground, the Spurs players had already practiced.

Popovich glanced at him and found that the training seemed to be no different from usual. It seemed that the players themselves were very unwilling to be with the big defeat yesterday.

Everyone must also want to break the Spurs' historical record as soon as possible. Not all records in this league must be related to the Grizzlies.

"They seem to be in better shape?" Standing on the sidelines, Popovich started chatting with his coaching staff member Chip Englander.

Chip England is an important member of the Spurs coaching staff. Although he has never achieved decent achievements in the field of professional players and has not even played in the NBA game, he has been doing well in the coaching position.

In the 99-00 season, England began to work as a shooting coach at the Pistons. In the 03-05 season, he became a player development consultant for the Nuggets.

Since 2005, he has been playing for the Spurs coaching staff. With his help, "French sports car" Tony Parker has made significant progress in shooting. Of course, Leonard's progress in shooting is also due to England.

In fact, even Grant Hill finally developed a three-pointer under the guidance of England.

England is one of the best shooting coaches in the United States, and he is also the foundation for the Spurs to be able to score such a high shooting percentage this season.

Looking at Popovich's two big dark circles, England knew that the old man must have not had a good sleep last night. He must be worried about the series.

So England smiled and tried to relax the old man as much as possible. "Yes, the players' condition was not affected by the defeat. Even because of that painful defeat, they became harder. Leonard was practicing his defense, and Duncan tried to hone his shots at close range. But their performance did not surprise me too much. Do you know who was the one who surprised me the most today?"

"Don't keep it a secret with me, Chip, just tell me the answer." Popovich waved his hand and said that he didn't like to play this kind of "guess" game.

"It's Danny Green, his performance on the training ground today is amazing!" Chip then answered directly.

"Danny?" Popovich said, turning his eyes to Green. At this time, Green was practicing interfering with the help of the trainer,

One trainer was responsible for passing the ball, and the other trainer held up a sign to interfere with Green's shot.

Popovich stared at Green for a long time, but he didn't miss a single shot!

Danny Green is like a shooting machine that won't make mistakes. Every shot he shoots is so right, even the arc is exactly the same.

"How is it? Isn't it amazing?" England raised an eyebrow at Popovich.

"When did this boy Danny let us down again?" Popovich finally showed his first smile since the end of yesterday's game.

"As long as I can get a chance, no matter what I want to do, I will do it. I will distribute towels, hand over water, and I will do whatever I can."

The words Green said to Popovich once began to appear in his mind again.

Danny Green was just a Development League player at that time. He finally joined the Spurs, but seemed to be very worried about his prospects.

So Green said that to Popovich.

At that time, Popovich only felt that Green, the boy, had a good attitude, and didn't seem to be here to make a living.

So the old man decided that Green would stay and cultivate slowly, slowly find the style and position he was good at.

As it turns out, the rewards the Spurs have received are huge. Green is definitely the top 3D player in the league now. He may not be able to be the protagonist, but he is definitely the most important player in a game besides the protagonist!

He was never expected, but he never stopped running.

Popovich held his chin, and Greene's dream of opportunity was time to give it to him!

"Cip." Popovich opened his mouth while staring at the training ground.

"how?"

"You said, if we set up some three-pointers for Green. With his current state today, will we be able to solve the problem of the window period tomorrow?"

"That's of course, Green feels hot, and now is the best time to use him."

England nodded affirmatively. He knew that after yesterday's defeat, the old man seemed to have found a way to equalize the score.

Adjust, adjust, adjust, and constantly adjust until victory.

This is Popovich's key to victory.

And now, the white-haired old man is about to adjust his strategy in the Western Conference Finals for the first time.

Danny Green still knew nothing about this. At this time, he was only thinking about one thing on the training ground - how to throw every ball into the basket.

"As long as you work hard, a lot of good things will happen."
