Although it is his own tactic of holding the ball and playing alone, Meng Xu will not really pick up the ball and do it, but when Meng Xu saw that it was Chauncey Billups, who was obviously a lot shorter than him, to defend himself, Meng Xu also had a little other idea.

In this game, Meng Xu played as a scoring guard, but Meng Xu's height in shoes was more than 2.03 meters, a very standard small forward height, and Chauncey Billups's official height was 1.91 meters, but in Meng Xu's opinion, he was actually a little shorter, facing a defensive player who was more than 10 centimeters shorter than himself, and he was also a defensive player with average defense. In the past, Meng Xu didn't have too many requirements for the level of scoring, as long as the team could win and his teammates played comfortably. But since the game with the United States team in the Olympic Games, Meng Xu brushed the highest score in the Olympic Games and the second highest score in the history of the Olympic Games, Meng Xu knew that the original scoring feeling was so enjoyable, the feeling of only the basket in his eyes and ignoring everything also made Meng Xu fascinated, although Meng Xu also knew that he would not experience that feeling again in a short period of time, but in his heart he still missed the feeling of despising everything.

After Meng Xu held the ball this time, he also confidently stood not far from the top of the 3-point arc, slowly slapping the basketball in his hand, while the rest of the Spurs players were all pulled away, and the same is basically the case with the Timberwolves. However, Timberwolves head coach Philip Sanders on the bench glanced at Popovich with his hands on his chest on the opposite side, looking confident.

In order to target the Spurs' interior twin towers, Philip Sanders used a lot of brains before this game, the Spurs are good at playing positional battles, and the main players are a bunch of old guys except for Meng Xu and Duncan, so in this game, Philip Saunders also arranged a lineup of double point guards, adding two interior lines with excellent movement speed, and Wally Szebiak, who is good at shooting, also wanted to catch the Spurs off guard by speeding up, but the Spurs' first offense after the opening of this game, It just made Philip Saunders feel a little bad. Terrell Brandon and Chauncey Billups are the kind of players who are good at controlling the tempo of the game and have good offensive ability, but are average defensively. If it's defending Avery Johnson, it's barely okay, but once you play against a player who shoots well and has the advantage of height and speed, it will definitely be blown up. Therefore, before the start of the game, Philip Sanders also kept praying that the Spurs' offensive focus Popovich would not be on Meng Xu, but judging from this first offense, his prayer was obviously unsuccessful.

Chauncey Billups, who is also defending Meng Xu on the court now, is also very embarrassed, Meng Xu's breakthrough and outside shooting are very good, and his height is so much taller than himself, so in terms of defensive selection, Chauncey Billups is also very difficult, is it to prevent him from breaking through? Or do you want to prevent him from shooting? But if you think about it carefully, you don't seem to be able to defend any of them, and before the game, head coach Philip Saunders did not make a targeted defensive arrangement for Meng Xu, but Chauncey Billups still stepped forward to defend Meng Xu's shot, after all, there is Kevin Garnett behind him, once Meng Xu passes himself, Kevin Garnett will definitely help defend himself.

After seeing Chauncy Billups' defensive choice, Meng Xu took a step sideways with the ball, and then jumped up quickly, while Chauncy Billups, as the defender, also jumped up, and at the same time stretched out his hands to cover Meng Xu's eyes.

"Very beautiful dry pull, this is different from Meng Xu's previous outside shots, is this a new shot developed by Meng Xu this summer?" As a key matchup between the four power forwards, the game between the Spurs and the Timberwolves is also a game that is broadcast live in the United States, and the on-site commentators are still Michaels and Magic Johnson.

"El, as a person who claims to be Meng Xu's most senior fan, don't you feel that you are derelict in your duty? Meng's shot was already known to the world in the Olympics and the U.S. team, but you didn't even know it? Magic Johnson is now also looking at Michaels with disgust.

"I didn't watch that game, I went to South America for a few days for a holiday." After casually finding an excuse to prevaricate, Michaels immediately changed the topic: "Meng's shooting posture is very similar to that kid of the Raptors, oh, Tracy is now a player for the Magic." ”

"It's not the same, although both of them are this kind of dry pull-up shooting that almost jumps on the spot, but in comparison, Tracy's shooting speed is faster, while Meng will shoot after a significant pause in the air, and compared to Tracy's dry-pull shooting, Meng's shooting percentage is definitely much better."

As the magician said, although Chauncey-Billups had successfully blocked Meng Xu's eyes, Meng Xu paused in the air, and only after Chauncey-Billups had begun to fall did Meng Xu calmly shoot in the air, and when Chauncey-Billups landed, he looked back and saw that the basketball thrown by Meng Xu had been hollowed into the net.

Although Chauncy Billups had already prepared for the embarrassing situation that he might face in defending Meng Xu, he recalled that he jumped later just now, but fell earlier, and when he fell, Meng Xu still maintained his shooting posture, Chauncy Billups was full of shock and shock.

"This ability to stay in the air is already comparable to Jordan." As a guard who entered the league in the 97 season, Chauncey Billups and Jordan still had many photos on the court, but without exception they were all blown up by Jordan, compared with Jordan, he is more like an old man, especially Jordan's amazing ability to stay in the air, jump up and wait for you to fall in the air, he will shoot, and this scene in front of him also reminded Chauncey Billups of the horror of being dominated by Jordan when he was a rookie.

"What a perfect shot." Mike Budenholzer and Steve Cole on the sidelines couldn't help but applaud Meng Xu's shot, but Popovich on the side narrowed his brows.

And at this time, the photojournalists sitting under the basket, and even the fans in the entire Alamo Stadium, are basically the same as Mike Budenholzer at this moment, Meng Xu's shooting posture and picture just now are really beautiful. At the same time, the fans at the scene also broke out in applause and cheers after Meng Xu scored this goal, this kind of handsome and elegant shooting, a few fans don't like it.

"Meng, your shooting is so beautiful." Duncan, who had already opened up space for Meng Xu on the inside and was waiting for Meng Xu to break through, also high-fived Meng Xu in celebration after seeing Meng Xu's very beautiful shot.

"It's just an accident, I don't believe you dare to fight like this." Although Philip Saunders on the sidelines also thinks that Meng Xu's shooting is very beautiful, he doesn't think that Meng Xu will always shoot like this, if it is a catch-and-shoot after running without the ball, it is good to say, to this kind of brainless single shooting regardless of his teammates, not to mention Duncan's David Robinson, even Berbervich on the sidelines may not be able to endure it a few times, you must know that the Spurs are a team that admires and relies on the team, this kind of superstar single tactics that rely on individual ability, in the Spurs, under Popovich, it will basically not be allowed, What's more, Meng Xu is not a superstar now, and in this case, he dares to play like this twice at most, maybe one time is already the limit of what Popovich can tolerate.

"Meng is really persistent in this game, this is his third consecutive single Chauncey Billups, obviously he can break through, he has to choose this kind of shooting method that is similar to humiliation, oh my God, Chauncey Billups is so pitiful."

Meng Xu, who was on the court at this time, couldn't hear this kind of discussion on the sidelines, and now his mind was full of wanting to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show off to the TV audience in the United States, and his picturesque shooting would brush up on a career-high score by the way. Isn't the league going to push the "four big scoring guards" and "four big small forwards" recently, if I can be lucky enough to be selected, with this shareholder wind, it will not be a surge in popularity in the future, and it will be the focus wherever I go.

"He's aiming at this, you're still over." When he was once again **** by Meng Xu, Chauncy Billups finally couldn't bear to explode directly at Meng Xu.

"Chauncey, this is just the beginning, haha." And Meng Xu is obviously enjoying this feeling very much now, in the first 3 rounds, Meng Xu **** Chauncey Billups 3 times, in the face of this situation that is similar to no defense, Meng Xu's hand feeling is also very good, 3 shots all hit, after the opening score of 9 points in a row, and the Spurs also led the Timberwolves 9-2 by 7 points.

The Timberwolves trailed by 7 points in just 1 minute of the opening game, and in this case, Philip Saunders could only call a timeout and replace Chauncey Billups with Sam Mitchell.

I also have a change that I love to eat watermelon, remember it first, and I will definitely make up for it later.
