Chapter 963: Yin People Are so Disgusting!

Rondo is not a loser!

Rondo is a great god!

This is what Bowen said.

In the Spurs, no one will doubt anything Bowen says.

Even Popovich will not doubt it.

As the media said, if there is still one person in the world who is loyal to the Spurs, then this person must be Bowen!

A noble person who is willing to break his legs for the team, a noble person who is willing to take all the blame for his teammates and coaches, and a noble person who chooses to retire at the peak of his career because of guilt.

Rondo is not a loser, Rondo is a great god!

And it is 100% sure!

Popovich doesn't know why Bowen has such a judgment, but he is willing to believe that this is not Bowen's nonsense.

Bowen will not harm him or his Spurs.

There was no past, no present, and no future.

What's more, the Spurs have collapsed like this now, even if it is a little worse, it can't be much worse.

He also has doubts about Rondo's strength in his heart.

It's just that he can't be as sure as Bowen.

He can't find evidence to support this argument.

However, Bowen gave him all the advice and evidence on the phone.

Thinking of Bowen's advice to him, Popovich's eyes kept flickering.

The Spurs played very badly in the first half.

The team fell behind by nearly 30 points at halftime, and gave up the winning game, and finally failed to defend Rondo.

Rondo still scored the highest halftime score of 20 points in the first half.

Such a result really made the Spurs uncomfortable.

They are already targeting Rondo,

This is the highest treatment for players of Rondo's level.

Going up, that is the targeted defense against real superstars, the kind of close-fitting pressure throughout the court, and at night, it is double-teaming.

If the Spurs really use these two types of defense against Rondo, it would be really embarrassing.

To play against the Nanshan Nursing Home and Beihai Kindergarten, you used the strongest adult, and you let this adult go all out. Shame on you.

And if these two defenses really can't withstand Rondo's offense, then it will be as "embarrassing" as Kobe.

Kobe almost went crazy because he felt too embarrassed. Let's not talk about whether Jackson will accept Popovich's arrangement. Even if he accepts it, what if...

Jackson can't be as thick-skinned as Kobe. He was almost crazy and suddenly got better.

The first half of the game against the Supersonics was a very failed half-time game.

This failed half-time game is also a microcosm of the Spurs this season.

Because of the lack of strength, the Spurs do not have enough strength to do anything, and they seem to be quite stretched and unable to cover everything, so they can only sacrifice some things in exchange for some things. It is precisely because sometimes sacrifice is needed, and after the sacrifice, the strength will decline, and it may not be possible to exchange for what you want.

Most of the Spurs players are players who have experienced the invincible Spurs last season.

To be honest, most players are not very adaptable to the gap this season.

But...

Who made Bowen retire so resolutely?

Bowen's importance to the Spurs is not just that he is a superstar. Bowen's presence allows the Spurs to not worry about the threat of any outside player in the league. Even Yes was a little embarrassed when he met the Spurs and Bowen before the playoffs last season.

This also shows how much protection they received from Bowen last season.

It is said that you only know what is truly precious when you lose it.

Now the Spurs really know what is the most precious thing for themselves and the team.

When the Spurs players returned to the locker room, the expressions on their faces were unwilling and regretful.

The Spurs players thought that Popovich, who walked in front to answer the phone, looked more unwilling and regretful than them. After entering the locker room, they were surprised to find that Popovich's face did not have any unwillingness or regret.

Popovich's eyes are very bright now, unusually bright, as if he had found the truth!

Seeing Popovich like this, the Spurs players looked at each other in bewilderment.

Wouldn't Popovich be driven crazy by Rondo like Kobe?

Indeed, Rondo and his fellow players are too bad, and with Yes's support, he has become a non-mainstream offensive player.

If he is defended, he will score, but if he is not defended, he will not score. This is not only a blow to the defensive players, but also a blow to the opposing head coach.

Especially Popovich.

Other head coaches would bypass Rondo without even looking at him.

And Popovich must deal with this thorny problem.

But this thorny problem cannot be handled well at all.

Even it cannot be handled at all, and in the end, he can only keep it in his heart, getting more and more depressed, and then he will go crazy.

"Pop..."

Recently, Duncan, who has been a little irritable, looked at Popovich with worried eyes.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, I just found some interesting things!"

Popovich said to the Spurs players with a smile.

Interesting things!

It is indeed a very interesting thing. If Rondo is really not a rookie but a great god as Bruce said, then what level of great god is he?

This is a great god who can make Yes average 20+ assists per game!

This is a great player who averages 40+ points per game in the NBA!

This is a great player who can easily hit any defensive player!

This is a great player who uses his strength to tease players of Kobe's level on both offense and defense!

Kobe!

Even though Bruce was beaten so badly by Kobe in the past two seasons, he dare not say that he can drive Kobe crazy.

And who is Rondo?

Rondo is not only a player of the Seattle Supersonics!

Rondo is also an American. Rondo can still be a player of the Dream Team and a player under his command!

Rondo is so strong, plus a stronger Yes, and a seemingly strong Durant.

The strength of the Seattle Supersonics this season is terrifying.

If Bruce is right, Rondo is really a great player, then the Seattle Supersonics this season is so strong that it is outrageous, and it will definitely not be worse than the hard power of the three teams of the Lakers, Heat and Grizzlies.

In this case, there are four super teams in the entire league, and three of them are in the West. In this situation, the Spurs and other Western teams basically have no chance of coming out.

A chance of coming out?

Popovich never thought that the Spurs would have a chance to make a breakthrough this season.

When he chose to give up victory in such an important game and choose to limit Rondo, he was mentally prepared for the worst.

After all, he has played this kind of thing before.

With the current situation of super teams in the league, it is a foolish dream to lead the current Spurs to the championship.

Duncan needs a superstar helper.

For him and the Spurs, the best choice is that Duncan will stay alive first, maintain the state and strength of the game, and the Spurs will quickly find another superstar or superstar who can compete with Bowen.

Although the 2010 NBA draft is not a big year, this year, there are two beauties, John Wall and Avery Bradley!

Getting any of them can allow the Spurs to quickly complete the reconstruction.

Which of the two options should be chosen between the championship this season and the championship in the 2010 World Championships?

In this game, he gave up the victory to defend Rondo, and he had already made his own choice.

The result of the choice was a failure. In the first half, the victory was not won, and Rondo did not defend. In the whole first half, he and his Spurs were smeared with poop by Rondo, and they had a mouthful of poop in their mouths.

It was very bad and disgusting.

But now Bruce told him that Rondo was not poop, but a great god. What was smeared on their faces and stuffed into their mouths was not poop, but ice cream!

This is completely different.

In this game, he failed to defend Rondo and failed to conquer the hearts of James, Kobe and other players who could become the leaders of the Dream Team.

It can be imagined that after this game, James, Kobe, Anthony, Chris Paul and others still have a wait-and-see attitude towards him and will not express their intention to join the Dream Team.

This really made him desperate before. It was not the All-Star Dream Team, and he did not have such strong confidence to defeat the Chinese team.

But James and Kobe were unwilling to come to the Dream Team as leaders!

Rondo can!

Now the whole world thinks Rondo is a scoring rubbish. Rondo has never been discussed to join the Dream Team before. Does Rondo want to join?

Of course he wants to!

He has never enjoyed the glory of James and Kobe.

He has been sacrificing for Yes.

If he could show up at the right time and express his appreciation for him at the right time, Rondo, who would be moved, would kneel down in front of him with tears of gratitude and give everything for him!

Thinking of Rondo being ready to kneel down in front of him with tears of gratitude but being quickly supported by him, and Rondo's face becoming more moved, Popovich suddenly felt that he almost laughed out loud.

Hahahaha, boring, too boring!

With a superstar who fights for him wholeheartedly, Rondo who is the scoring champion, assists champion, and triple-double champion, what's the point of James and Kobe!

Scoring champion, assists champion, triple-double champion...

Now thinking of Rondo's achievements again, Popovich is really shocked.

If Rondo is really poop, how could he achieve such an achievement in the NBA!

The first scoring champion + triple-double champion in the NBA after Jerry West.

The first triple-double champion in the NBA playoffs and regular season after Oscar Robertson!

It's not the combination of Jordan and Magic that was sealed by Yes.

Rondo's real strength is the combination of Jerry West and Oscar Robertson!

The combination of two top 20 players in NBA history, what will be his real strength?

Rondo's current honors may be a little lacking.

But his real strength is definitely in the top 10 in league history!

Hahahahahahaha!

Popovich couldn't help laughing in the end.

"..."

The Spurs players next to him were confused.

Is Pop really okay?

"Ahem."

After noticing his own gaffe, Popovich quickly shut up.

Boring!

The world that only Bruce and I know is too boring!

"In the second half, we will change our defensive strategy against Rondo. Tony, Manu, in the second half, you two double-team Rondo."

"..."

After Popovich finished speaking, the other Spurs players looked dazed.

It is normal that Popovich does not care about being ridiculed after Manu and Tony cannot defend.

But, does he really not care about being beaten 58?

Why care about 58!

According to Bruce's suggestion, double-teaming is the best way to test a person's strength.

Because of Rondo's pre-game shooting and the strange scoring pattern in the game, the whole world will not believe in his strength.

But he can use double-teaming to test Rondo's true strength.

It depends on whether Rondo can still become the scoring leader of this game under the double-team!

Rondo is sacrificing his reputation for Yes.

Yes gave Rondo all the honors of scoring champion and MVP.

This is an exchange between the two.

And what the Supersonics can get is the underestimation of the enemy by the whole world.

I have to say, this move is really powerful.

If Bruce did not know Yes very well, even a smart man like him would be kept in the dark even if he noticed the disobedience.

Since Yes said that Rondo must be the scoring champion in all games this season, he must go back and do it, even if Rondo is double-teamed.

Therefore, as long as Rondo can really get the scoring title in this game under the double-team of Tony Parker and Ginobili.

Then Bruce's guess about Rondo's true strength is correct.

On November 17, 2009, when the highly anticipated game between the Supersonics and the Spurs ended.

The score on the court was 168 to 110. The Seattle Supersonics played a very exciting offensive battle against the fateful opponent Spurs at home.

Facing the fateful opponent Spurs, the Supersonics were able to beat the Spurs by 58 points at home, which of course surprised the fans at the scene in Seattle.

In fact, Yes was also quite surprised.

Yes thought that Popovich would explore and break Rondo's true strength in this game.

Popovich tried to defend Rondo in a destructive manner in this game. Rondo used his pass with his help to break Popovich's destruction, and finally Rondo's true strength was fully exposed.

This is harmful to his plan to let Rondo win the scoring title in every game.

If Popovich really let the world know Rondo's strength and really all started to target Rondo, he would be very uncomfortable.

But what surprised Yes was that Popovich did not want to destroy Rondo, but more like testing him.

He actually used Parker and Ginobili to double-team Rondo for a while in the third quarter.

And...

Looking at the big screen at the scene.

The Spurs were beaten 58.

Popovich did not directly criticize the players with a dark face as he did in the past.

He was very elegant and came to Rondo with a smile.

"Rajon, it's another great game and another great performance."

"..."

After the game, reporters from all over the world surrounded Yes.

There was nothing around him.

But...

Looking at Popovich with a kind smile, Rondo was really confused.

What is this going on?

"Rajon, you are one of the strongest players I have ever seen. You deserve any honor. Are you interested in coming to my American team to be the leader?"

One of the strongest players?

The leader of the American team?

Rondo, who was still in a daze, looked at Popovich, who was extremely serious, kind and trusting. His iron heart actually moved softly.

He was actually recognized!

Recognition that was no less than Yes!

What a sincere expression.

The sincerity and appreciation on Popovich's face actually touched Rondo...

I am not dreaming, I am the leader of the American team!

Yes, the leader of the Chinese team!

Rondo was very excited.

Popovich was also very excited.

My road to becoming the boss of the Seattle Supersonics finally reached a turning point of counterattack!

Defeat Yes, I will be the boss of the Seattle Supersonics!

Defeat Yes, defeat the Chinese team, and I will get back all my glory!

The two people were so excited that they even held their hands together.

"It's disgusting to be a traitor."

Durant, who walked past Rondo and Popovich, muttered in a low voice.
