After having the midnight snack, Yi Jianlian sent Tang Tian to the hotel and then went back.

Seeing Cayenne disappear from his sight, Tang Tian also withdrew his gaze.

To be honest, although Tang Tian has lived for a lifetime, he is still a very patriotic person in his bones.

A country is like a university. You can scold it, but you will never allow others to say something bad. You can complain about it, but you definitely hope it will become better.

Yi Jianlian is the core of the national men's basketball team. Tang Tian also coached the national team in his previous life, so he naturally hopes that it can become better.

After the Dallas game, the Spurs set off and boarded the plane to Philadelphia.

Compared to when I came to Dallas, the players were much quieter at this time, and they all focused on rest.

For the Spurs, the most tormenting thing about the suspension season is that there are many back-to-back games, which is not very friendly to senior teams like them.

The 76ers entered the post-Iverson era, and the core of the team was "little AI" Iguodala.

However, the strength of Ju Holiday and Louis Williams this season, coupled with a number of high-quality rookies such as Turner and Vucevic, is very competitive.

Tang Tian also met his old acquaintance, Ravoy Allen, who also ran for the election this year, but was only selected by 76ers at the 50th pick.

The Spurs were obviously not in physical condition in the back-to-back game. They were beaten by their opponents in the fourth quarter and eventually lost to their opponents 92-100.

Although he lost, Tang Tian's performance was still relatively stable. He scored 13 points, 3 rebounds and 2 steals in 25 minutes.

This is basically his normal performance with the Spurs.

This performance even surprised the Spurs coaching staff, who rarely saw rookies perform so stably.

The last one was Tim Duncan, and they used it for almost 20 years.

The schedule is intensive and there are many back-to-back games. Ginobili has not made a comeback yet. The Spurs' record in January has fluctuated a bit, but the overall performance is still very good.

Time flies, February is coming in a blink of an eye.

The Spurs' record so far is 16 wins and 6 losses, defeating the Thunder with a record of half a game and still sits in the No. 1 position in the West.

This record has also attracted a lot of emotion from fans on Ins.

"Didn't the Spurs become older again? Why did a month's game go by, and it's still the best in the West?"

"It cannot be ignored. There are many back-to-back games this season, which has a great impact on the Spurs' performance. Their record could have been better."

"Manu has been on the verge of nearly a month, and their record could have been better."

"Why are the Thunder so unsatisfactory? This should be their season."

"Look at it, the Thunder will soon become the No. 1 in the West!"

"This seems like Durant trumpet?"

“…”

"Why didn't he change his trumpet? ┑(￣Д￣)┍"

"Maybe he's too lazy to change it, right? After all, it's quite troublesome to register this thing."

...

The day ended the home game with the Jazz, and the Spurs raised their victory.

Tang Tian came out after taking a shower.

"'Godfather', you have to treat us to dinner." Ginobili shouted at him.

Tang Tian looked puzzled.

"Congratulations, Don." Parker smiled and came over to give him a hug.

"What happened?" Tang Tian was confused. Could it be that Popovich came in and said that he would start the next game?

No, starting things are usually only mentioned before the game.

"The league just announced the news that you are the best rookie of the first month." Green was still a good person and stood up and said to Tang Tian.

Under normal season, the league's first rookie of the month is in December, but due to the suspension, it has become January.

Tang Tian showed a smile on his face and was in a good mood.

Irving is the best performer among rookies, but he is in the East.

Rookies in the Eastern Conference, such as Marshan Brooks, Walker, and Tristan Thompson, are basically overwhelmed by him.

But the competition in the West is relatively fierce.

Ricky Rubio, who was delayed for two years before landing, No. 4 pick Derek Williams, Klay Thompson, who performed better and better, Farie De of the Nuggets' "orc" and Thomas Jr., who emerged as a new force in the Kings.

It is not easy for Tang Tian to stand out by defeating a number of rookies.

This has a lot to do with the Spurs' record of being the first in the league, but Tang Tian's performance is definitely worthy of this honor.

In January, the Spurs averaged 23.2 minutes per game, Tang Tian averaged 13.5 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 2.1 steals and 1.1 blocks, with a shooting percentage of 48% and a three-point shooting percentage of 50%. Among them, the scoring is second only to Irving among the rookies, ranking first in steals, and the three-point shooting percentage is third in the league.

Moreover, the three-point shooting percentage is because of the increase in the Spurs' tactical status, and his shooting percentage is naturally declining.

Reggie Jackson wants to make the 23 teams that did not choose him regret it, but judging from his performance, he still has a long way to go.

However, Tang Tian's performance has already made all 30 teams in the league regret it.

This is just a second round pick!

Even the Spurs only spent 1 million to buy this draft pick, and each team actually has a chance!

Of course, the one who regrets the most is the Heat and the Timberwolves. One could have been defeated steadily, and the other sent it away for $1 million.

"Please, of course, please, I will make tomorrow's lunch." Tang Tian said bluntly.

Of course he would not refuse if he had the opportunity to have a good relationship with his teammates.

There was a whistle in the locker room. It was obvious that it was the first time they met such a heroic rookie, such as Tang Tian.

Tang Tian sat down and received a text message shortly after a while, which was sent by the official alliance.

"Mr. Tang Tian, ​​congratulations on becoming the Western Conference Rookie of the Month in January of the 2011-2012 season. You can choose the following ways to receive the trophy.

1. We deliver to the team;

2. Awarded in home games;

3. Go to the Alliance Headquarters to collect it, address: "Olympic Tower" Building, 645 Fifth Avenue, New York."

This is the first time Tang Tian has received such a text message. The professionalization of the NBA is indeed the best in the world.

Because the Spurs will fly to New York to play against the Knicks in the next game, he directly chose the third one.

After he chose for a while, he replied to a detailed collection process.

It includes how to get to the headquarters, contacts after arriving, etc., which are very detailed.

Tang Tian took his cell phone away and remembered that he hadn't contacted Olson for a while, so he sent her a text message saying that he would go to New York to play games in two days.

When he changed his clothes, Olson's text message had already come back.

It turns out that she is already familiar with the script of "Martian Rescue" during this period.
