The second quarter of the game between the Spurs and the Cavaliers also began, and to be honest, it was quite unexpected that the two sides were tied at the first time.

The Spurs have been slow to heat up, rarely picking up opponents in the first quarter, and there have only been a few games this season in which they exploded in the first quarter.

But the Cavaliers are different, you must know that this is James's revenge battle, but surprisingly he did not have a particularly outstanding performance, and the Cavaliers did not say that they showed a strong crushing trend, but in the time that Lu Gui made mistakes, the Cavaliers still lagged behind a lot.

If it weren't for Irving's decisive request for substitutions, and then personally put on the battle to partner with James, I'm afraid the first quarter of the Cavaliers would not have ended so easily, let alone tie, and if they didn't fall behind by double digits, they would have to burn high incense.

The Spurs' rookie didn't perform well in the first quarter, Anderson didn't play anymore, Jokic was so nervous when he went up, his whole body was tense, and he didn't play his own characteristics at all.

If it weren't for Qin Yan's timely encouragement, I'm afraid Jokic's performance would have been even worse.

"In the second quarter, the lineup was rotated, Manu led the team, and the others rested." Popovich commanded, then folded his arms and closed his eyes and began to rest.

The conversation with Duncan just now strengthened Popovich's belief that he was ready to retire early, and he would retire as soon as Duncan retired, anyway, now that the team has a successor, and the situation is very good, it doesn't matter if he retires.

What's more, Popovich is planning to let Ginobili take over him, and with Ginobili, an old monster, the Spurs will not suffer.

Therefore, this time Popovich simply let Ginobili play freely once, anyway, the opponent is Tyronn Lu, and Ginobili's tactical quality should not be difficult to beat Tyronn Lu.

"Okay, Nikolai, Kyle, Matt, and Tony will come up with me in a moment."

Ginobili ordered two rookies and two veterans.

"Manu, you let Tony go on, what about me?" Duncan was a little surprised that Ginobili didn't call himself together, and said that the GDP would be together for a lifetime?

"You stay for a while to help Qin, and besides, the lineup that came up in the second quarter on the opposite side shouldn't be very strong, and it's a waste for you to be on it." Ginobili waved his hand and said to Duncan with a look of "I'm thinking about you".

"Are you complimenting me? Why do I find it a little strange? ”

"Hehe, don't worry so much."

……

Qin Yan and other players who don't have to play wear coats temporarily, after all, the air conditioning in the stadium is still quite big.

"Is it really okay to let Manu take command?"

Whiteside secretly bit his ear with Qin Yan.

"Don't worry, just the half-hung man opposite, Manu can be hanged, and the effect will not be worse than the coach."

Qin Yan is very confident in Ginobili as a coach, after all, he is a man who dares to grab the tactical board, how can he do it without any real skills?

"Will Manu be the coach next season?"

Whiteside looked innocent.

"Hassan, are you looking forward to my retirement soon?"

Ginobili didn't know when he had arrived, and when he heard Whiteside say he wanted him to be a coach next season, Ginobili really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

"No, no, no, I'm just looking forward to Manu becoming a coach soon, so that I can hug my thighs openly."

Whiteside's desire to survive rose up, and he hurried to show his loyalty.

"No discipline."

"It's not productive."

"I'm bad at learning."

……

Watching this scene, others condemned Whiteside, no way, who made Whiteside the team's junior character? In the entire Spurs, his time and seniority are at the bottom of the list.

Well, has everyone forgotten that he is actually a 10-year second-round show? Judging from the vintage, Whiteside is earlier than Leonard and Qin Yan!

However, with three veterans and two newcomers, it was clear that Ginobili was planning to get everyone on the team into the atmosphere of the Finals quickly in the second quarter.

Of course, this is risky, after all, there are two rookies flying to play the second quarter, and if the rookies can't bear it, they will have to fight 3 to 5, and if they don't do well, they will have to fight 3 to 7.

However, it all depends on how the Cavaliers come out in the second quarter.

Theoretically, they should let James take a break, after all, he played 12 minutes in the first quarter, and James can be said to be really regarded as an iron man!

Of course, it is normal for him to rest, but the brain circuit of Lu is not normal under normal circumstances.

Maybe people will only let James play 40+ minutes in the whole game.

"Still nervous?" Before going on the field, Ginobili specifically asked the two newcomers, these two people seem to have their legs shaking, how can this work?

"Manu, this is the first time I'm going to play in the finals."

Anderson protested, Jokic also played in the first quarter, but he was really ready to play, can he not be nervous?

You know, in this year's playoffs, Anderson basically played soy sauce, and suddenly he was brought on the court in the higher-level finals, so it's no wonder that he wasn't nervous!

"There is a first time for everything, but you can't use the first time as an excuse." Parker also came to pour chicken soup, as a senior, educating the younger generation is an easy, simple and stress-free job, Parker likes it the most.

"That's it, boy, you're too gentle, you have to be domineering, especially if you're still swinging in the 3-4 position, you look at the LeBron opposite, his aura is very strong." Barnes also came over, "Come, practice a fierce expression with me first, be a little domineering, you can't beat people for a while, and you will scare them to death......"

This is the team culture of the Spurs that makes Qin Yan feel very comfortable, in the words of the famous writer Alexandre Dumas, it should be "all for me, I for everyone." ”

"Tick-"

The break for the first quarter came, and the referee began to signal that people on both sides could return to the court.

"Wait a minute, shout a slogan!"

Ginobili really looks like a coach now! Even the morale boost before going on the field took over.

"123, Spurs!"

"Champion! Champion! Champion! ”

With an indomitable momentum, the three veterans of the Spurs came on the court with two rookie eggs, and Ginobili was really bold, and with this lineup, he wanted to block the Cavaliers in the second quarter.

Of course, if James doesn't play, maybe he can really hold it down.

But is Tyronn Lue the kind of person who breaks James? No, he'd rather throw away all the other cards in his hand to keep James.

In the second quarter, James played again!

Moreover, James still took Lefu with him!

"Holy! LeBron still hasn't rested? ”

The Spurs are all scared silly, James is still there, how can this be played? Just the five of Ginobili, old and young, how could they stop it?

"Manu, this ......"

Rookie eggs are rookie eggs, and seeing this, Anderson and Jokic are already a little weak.

"Recruit, don't be afraid, come with us!"

Ginobili and the others didn't say much, just patted them on the shoulder, and then took the lead on the field, leaving three backs for the two young men.

Young man, just follow behind the veterans!
