This was a game worthy of being recorded in history. To be honest, both teams performed at a normal level, and the winner was not decided until the last time.

From this perspective, although the Golden State Warriors lost the game and were frustrated and disappointed, they must recognize this result.

As Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said in a subsequent interview, "We messed up all this ourselves. We had a chance to end the suspense early, but obviously our performance was not good enough. They (the Spurs)

) is the team that performed better. I don’t want to blame my players. Everyone of them wants to win more than anyone else.”

"As for Bayonet, I think he is a special guy. Everyone has seen it. He is everywhere. He is the strongest rookie I have seen in recent years."

In addition to facing failure calmly, Kerr also did not hesitate to praise Jiang Hao, and even directly stated that Jiang Hao is the strongest rookie he has seen in recent seasons.

What is strong?

There is nothing better than the personal recognition of the opponent. Jiang Hao can be praised by the opponent's coach, which in itself explains a lot.

"He reminded me of Kobe, and I mean those two three-pointers at the end. Frankly, that was shocking. There is no doubt that the San Antonio Spurs have always been a team basketball team, but tonight

Jiang saved us”

Of course, Gregg Popovich will not be stingy with his praise for Jiang Hao. The old man seemed to be in a very good mood after the game. Facing the camera, he directly said that Jiang Hao's performance tonight was like "Black Mamba" Kobe Bryant.

Liant.

I have to say that anyone who knows Popovich knows that his evaluation of Jiang Hao is very high.

After all, in Popovich's heart, Kobe Bryant is a "special" existence. In Popovich's own words, all his tactics are useless in front of Kobe, which shows his fear of Kobe.

.

The old man has also publicly stated more than once that it is a very big regret for him not to coach Kobe.

Now, since he has publicly stated that Jiang Hao reminds him of Kobe, it means that Jiang Hao has truly conquered this stubborn old man with his big-hearted performance at critical moments.

Many fans, especially Spurs fans, agreed with Popovich's remarks, because over the past many years, until Kobe retired, even if they didn't want to admit it, they had to tell everyone that Kobe Bryant was the San Antonio Spurs for them.

The most hated superstar.

Because of Kobe's presence, the Spurs may have won at least 2-3 fewer O'Brien Trophies.

This also reflects the horror of Peter Pan at his peak.

And now, just now, when the bayonet hit the winner, not only Popovich, but Spurs fans even saw the shadow of Kobe Bryant in it.

Of course, some people will refute, isn't there the shadow of basketball god Michael Jordan?

But it must be noted that although the God of Basketball is great, compared with Kobe Bryant, his era is a bit older after all, and there are not that many stories between the God of Basketball and the Spurs.

………

For Jiang Hao, after his crazy performance, he was naturally the focus of the news media after the game. It took him nearly an hour to deal with the media in the mixed interview area. In the end, with the assistance of Spurs staff, he

Just escaped from the locker room.

"When the game is not over yet, God dare not say that you will definitely lose."

This sentence he said in an interview quickly became widely circulated and became his first influential "famous quote" since entering the NBA.

In the third game of the Western Conference finals series, the San Antonio Spurs relied on a stunning bayonet to score a 3-0 series at the ATAT Center at home. They now hold four match points and seem to be close to advancing to the finals.

So close.

In fact, after the third game ended, almost no one thought that the defending champion had the possibility of a comeback.

Even their own fans have to lower their heads at this time. The home team they have high hopes for this season and is about to be eliminated.

"Absolutely impossible, at least in the history of the NBA, there has never been a team that has come back from behind 0:3, not to mention that the Golden State people are facing the San Antonio Spurs. Everyone knows that Gray

How sophisticated is the Spurs team led by Gpopovich”

Stephen A. Smith, a famous American journalist and known as "American Yang Yi," said this on his Twitter.

To be honest, Stephen A. Smith was definitely one of the people who was most optimistic about the defending champion advancing to the finals before the start of this series. For example, before the start of this series, Stephen A. Smith hosted a program

China publicly declared that the defending champion had a 90% chance of advancing to the finals because he could not find a reason for the defending champion to lose.

"Of course, I will never say that Steve Kerr, Stephen Curry or Klay Thompson messed up all this. Obviously, everyone saw it, and the defending champion was bayoneted."

Stephen A. Smith followed up with another tweet, in which he further expressed his inner thoughts.

And people later drew a conclusion from his Twitter content, that is, Stephen A. Smith believed that the bayonet alone defeated the defending champion, and the sudden bayonet was the fatal reason why the defending champion was on the verge of elimination.

"Although I don't agree with Stephen's statement that the bayonet came out of nowhere and killed the defending champion, but I 100% like his affirmation of the bayonet."

EDN commentator Jeff Van Gundy also expressed his views. Jeff Van Gundy is no stranger to Chinese fans. His remarks have always been the focus of Chinese fans' attention.

In addition to some public figures publicly expressing their views on this series, some well-known bookmakers in the United States also immediately updated the probability of a comeback in the series for the defending champions. Unfortunately, this probability is only 089.

In other words, in the eyes of bookmakers, the Golden State Warriors have basically lost the possibility of a comeback.

To be honest, this makes Jiang Hao's landlord Sean a little unhappy, because in the next fourth game, he may no longer be able to obtain high returns.

Because a fact that makes Sean laugh even when he sleeps is that so far in this series, he has earned US$250,000 from buying lottery tickets. You know, he has almost caught up with his restaurant's annual income.

"Damn it, I still like the bookmaker's attitude of not being optimistic about us like before. This not only allows me to experience the pleasure from the team's victories, but also allows me to get actual compensation. Okay, I have to do it well.

Thanks to Xia Jiang, maybe without him, I wouldn’t be able to make so much money.”

Sean proudly showed off to his friends.

"Xiao, from the perspective of a friend, I don't recommend you to continue, because this is no longer entertainment, this is gambling, and he will make you bankrupt."

When Jiang Hao returned to the rental house and Sean happily showed off to him the results of his lottery purchases during this period, Jiang Hao said this.

"Jiang, you are the god of the stadium. With you here, I can't go bankrupt."

Sean laughed.

This made Jiang Hao extremely depressed.

"Brother, wake up. The basketball court relies on strength, not God. And in this world, there are no winning generals. Maybe you will lose the next game."

Jiang Hao spread his hands. He felt that he had said what needed to be said. As for whether Sean was willing to let go, that was his own business.

"Let's wait until the season is over and everything is finalized in the offseason."

Xu Xiaoyi suggested that Jiang Hao change places and continue to live in this small rental house with his current status. To be honest, there are too many inconveniences.

Xu Xiaoyi even told Jiang Hao that fortunately this was San Antonio. If they were in cities with higher crime rates such as Washington, D.C. or Detroit in the east, Jiang Hao's rental house would have been burglarized countless times.

From this perspective, San Antonio is pretty good.

"Okay, but have you figured out what to do now?"

As Jiang Hao's girlfriend and team public relations officer, Xu Xiaoyi felt that it was necessary to grasp some new situations. For example, where is Jiang Hao planning to go during the offseason?

Because just this morning, she learned from the conversation between Jiang Hao and Rich Paul that the Spurs officially expressed their intention to keep Jiang Hao.

From Xu Xiaoyi's point of view, she is not Rich Paul, and she will not keep urging Jiang Hao to leave the Spurs to play in big cities. She also has no objection to Jiang Hao continuing to stay in the Spurs. She just wants to learn from Jiang Hao's mouth.

Got some news.

"I don't know, I can't think about that now. As you know, my main focus is on the game now, so I really have to calmly consider this matter after the season is over. However, what I can tell you is

, Popovich will be an important reason for me to decide whether to stay with the Spurs."

Jiang Hao didn't want Xu Xiaoyi to be too disappointed, so he still revealed something to Xu Xiaoyi, and this was indeed his true inner thought.

Because from Jiang Hao's point of view, Popovich definitely played a very big role in his achievements today. If Popovich hadn't been so decisive in trusting him, even if he had top talent, he wouldn't have been able to do it.

Maybe he can hit it all at once. In addition, Popovich has done a good job in training him. Whether it is training or competition, he has received a lot of guidance from Popovich.

Bole doesn't happen often, that's probably the reason.

Under this circumstance, when he is considering the Spurs in the offseason, he will definitely use Popovich as an important reference point for whether he will stay.
