After halftime, he returned to the lounge. Murray lowered his head and said nothing. His radar performance was very eye-catching, and slowly captured the hearts of the fans. He knew that it might not be long before he could be the starting point guard.

About to hand it over.

There was silence in the Spurs lounge. Everyone had their own thoughts, even head coach Popovich.

Popovich: Ray, how much are you still hiding? When will you be able to show your full potential? However, Manu and Tim have really good vision. They selected an excellent guard with the 11th pick in the first round.

.This mine seems to need some time to be polished.

In fact, Mr. Bobo is still very happy. As for Radar's performance in this single quarter, who can say that it is worse than the No. 1 pick LaMelo Ball or the No. 2 pick Anthony Edwards.

The old man suppressed the urge to laugh, no, no, I am the head coach and I have to maintain my serious image.

LaMarcus Aldridge, as the core figure of this team, is thinking: This year there is an excellent defender, maybe no worse than Tony Parker in the future, but when will he be able to pass the ball to me, I am so tall

His stature shouldn't be easily overlooked.

Radar: No, it’s not as comfortable as before. Something went wrong.

Although he got 6 assists in this quarter, Radar was almost passing the ball in the second half, but his teammates' offense made him worried.

Whether it is partnering with Patty Mills or DeRozan, these two are relatively good shooting guards in the league, but Radar becomes more and more ineffective. The shooting guards around Radar have always been 3D players or 2D players. They can defend

, he can catch the ball and shoot, and he won't take up too much ball rights.

During the Mamba era, Wu Jie, who didn't know how to dribble the ball more, Zhou Qiang of the Raytheon team, and Liu Zheng of the Guangfeng team, were all players of this type.

It's just that you are just a rookie, a substitute in the Spurs, and have no say. If you tell the coaching staff this now, they will think you are crazy. After two games, you will become the owner of the Spurs.

?

As an assistant coach, Manu conveyed what he wanted to say for Bobo: "We performed very well in the first half, especially Ray. His performance was perfect. This is what we need. But we still need to strengthen our

Defense, this is our strength, isn’t it?”

"Portland's inside line is very strong, especially Whiteside and Nurkic. They will pose a great threat to us at the basket. I think we can try more mid-range or long-range shots."

There is no doubt about Whiteside's shot-blocking and rebounding abilities. He was the block leader in 2015-16 and rebounding leader in 2017-18. With the help of Nurkic and veteran Gasol, the Spurs were screaming inside.

Aldridge is not a player who is particularly good at fighting and blocking shots. Boltel can't handle it alone. A big white side is enough for him, not to mention he has a right-hand man. As for the Spurs, Boltel is still able to fight alone in the interior.

Got everything.

Manu continued: "So we need to change our formation in the second half. We need shooters to increase our scoring."

"Ray, are you having problems with Murray as a backcourt partner?"

Radar shook the rattle and said confidently: "No problem, I think Murray will give me a good pass."

As he spoke, he glanced at Murray, and the two nodded to each other.

So Radar is at the 2nd position, DeRozan is at the 3rd position, Gay is at the 4th position, and Ade is at the 5th position. Except for Murray, all five of them have very good offensive abilities. Of the five, except for Ade, who is slightly lacking in defensive ability inside,

The defense of the other four people is very good.

Generally speaking, Pop's tactics in the second half were to give up offensive rebounds and use long shots to cause damage.

At the beginning of the second half, the Trail Blazers' double guns in the backcourt and twin towers in the interior appeared again.

Lillard and McCollum were exchanging something, and looked towards Radar from time to time, but Radar didn't pay attention, and smiled and stretched out his hand to greet them from a distance.

Don't reach out to hit the smiling person. I'm so friendly, so the two bosses should be gentle.

The camera showed Lillard holding the ball and dribbling the ball. Lillard discovered that the radar was not facing him. He frowned. Can CJ block this Chinese defender?

Lillard still chose to believe in his teammates. He gave the ball to McCollum. Radar defended very actively. In terms of this defensive attitude, the impression in Popovich's mind was close to a perfect score.

McCollum dribbled continuously, opened up space with Radar, and made a solid three-pointer.

During the counterattack, Murray indeed passed the ball to Radar, but the quality of the pass was average. McCollum also stared closely at Radar, preventing him from having any room to take action.

If you don't shoot, don't shoot. The radar is given to DeRozan in the bottom corner, and then McCollum starts running circles.

You are the wind, I am the sand, lingering to the end of the world...

Radar's continuous back-and-forth runs also gave him a chance. Ah De, who was inside, played a post-up single on the white side. He failed to take a shot and passed the ball to Radar who was running. Inside the two-point line, Radar made an emergency stop when receiving the ball.

The ball changed direction in front of his body. McCollum was in a daze and couldn't find the position of the radar. He only heard the sound of the basketball hitting the net.

During the defense, Radar kept an eye on McCollum. Bobo said he would strengthen his defense, so Radar would not be lazy.

Concentrated, McCollum also ran circles with Radar. When Lillard passed the ball to him, he saw Radar rush out from the flank in advance and intercept the pass.

McCollum: We agreed that you would be the wind and I would be the sand, lingering to the end of the world. Why did you run away without waiting for me?

After getting the ball, Radar rushed forward, but was surrounded by McCollum and Lillard. Speaking of Nurkic, do you want to step in too?

McCollum and Lillard's flanking attacks on the left and right slowed Radar's forward progress, and Nurkic took advantage of the situation to come to the front.

The situation of the three heroes fighting Lu Bu was formed. How could the radar withstand the attack of these three tough men? Ah De positioned himself inside, and Nurkic withdrew from the battle and returned to defend Ah De.

Radar used his own bounce to jump up high and make shooting movements. The moment he shot, the direction changed and the basketball flew towards Ade's position.

Ade received the ball without hesitation, and put the basketball into the frame through Nurkic. It was rare for Ade to have such a strong scene during the Spurs period. The score was tied by the Spurs 54-54.

Ah De smiled at Radar and wiped the oil stains on his mouth with his right hand. Lei style sesame cakes, so delicious!

Then the situation suddenly changed. Under the leadership of the two guns in the backcourt, the Trail Blazers blossomed inside and outside, but the Spurs' shooters seemed to have lost their focus. Radar and Murray passed the ball a total of six times, and only Gay made a shot.

With one goal, the Trail Blazers took advantage of the situation and opened the score to 56 to 62.

When returning to defense, Radar looked at Manu with a questioning look. Manu obviously didn't understand and frowned. Radar made a shooting motion, meaning can I do it myself? Manu nodded and asked.

When you are in the shooting guard position, you score.

Without the authorized unlimited fire rights, Radar didn't dare to mess around. After all, he was a newcomer.

The Spurs used their defense to cause the Blazers to make mistakes. During the transition attack, Radar lurked in the left corner and watched Murray and DeRozan pass passes to each other.

Murray: DeMar, pick it up!

DeRozan: No, it’s a bit hot, give it back!

Murray: I don’t want it, I want assists, you shoot!

DeRozan: Hey, Ray, you're in a good position, let's go!

Radar: Come on, pass the ball to me and make the storm stronger.

Seeing Radar getting the ball, McCollum flew towards him, but Radar had already made a three-pointer. This is Radar's favorite position, and he can hit the target with one arrow!

McCollum, who flew to intercept, failed to stop and fell into Radar's arms. The two of them fell to the ground and rolled up in front of more than 10,000 Spurs fans.

Bah, I don’t do homosexuality!

I don’t know who said it, but the referee’s whistle sounded!

McCollum got up from the ground, and Radar also stood up.

"Are you okay?" McCollum asked, fearing that Radar would be injured because of his bravery.

"It's okay, you're still strong!" Radar said with a wink.

McCollum: "WHAT?"

In fact, he was questioning the referee, did I foul? You gave him 3+1?

Mr. Bobo was finally happy on the sidelines, seeing the passionate show, and now the referee gave another 3+1.

Today is a good day, everything you want can come true!

Radar scratched his head and showed a thunderous smile to McCollum, thank you, big brother.

Seeing Radar walking to the free throw line with a smile on his face, McCollum felt depressed, "I don't want to be with you anymore."

Radar's strong performance made the Trail Blazers' double shooters in the backcourt very dissatisfied. Lillard took a big step away from the three-point line and hit a three-pointer, and the scoring battle began.

Radar's shot at the top of the arc failed to hit, and he double-teamed Carmelo Anthony during the counterattack, causing him to make a mistake and lose the ball. Murray assisted DeRozan and made a mid-range shot.

McCollum missed the shot, Radar counterattacked with the ball, passed the ball to Gay, and moved with McCollum.

At a 45-degree angle, Radar once again received a pass from Gay, turned around and shot directly, then opened his arms and waited for McCollum's arrival.

McCollum immediately stopped and raised his hands in surrender.

I don’t dare anymore, I don’t dare anymore, we can’t just bang on the floor.

Just kidding, I'll knock you down and send you to the free throw line. I won't make the same mistake twice.

The third quarter became a fierce scoring battle between the two sides. After the third quarter, the Spurs unexpectedly led by 3 points. The combination of the pitching team began to show results.

In the fourth quarter, the Blazers' backcourt was tired and couldn't shoot anymore. To be precise, they were tired. A rookie could be on equal footing with them.

At the last moment of the fourth quarter, Pop once again sent Radar to control the rhythm on the court. At the last moment, Radar helped the Spurs narrowly beat the Trail Blazers 108-105 with two assists, winning their second victory of the new season and winning streak.

Also came to two games.

After the game, Radar took the initiative to hug Lillard, McCollum, Anthony and others. Lillard, who looked fierce, still hugged Radar. McCollum even smiled and expressed his blessing to Radar,

You will get better and better.
