Chapter 590: Later

The Nuggets finally ushered in a victory after a four-game losing streak.
At Pepsi Center at home, 87-91, the Nuggets beat the Western Underdog Warriors.
In this game, Reid and Arenas performed very well.
Reid scored a season-high 30 points in the fifth game of his starting game, and Arenas on the bench also performed brilliantly, scoring 23 points.
Although the opponent who won was not strong, it gave the team enough confidence.
After that, the Nuggets played against the Lakers at home.
Without Li Nan, the Nuggets lost the game without accident.
However, the Nuggets played exceptionally tenacious in this game.
Several times, the Lakers opened up more than 10 points, but the Nuggets can always catch the score.
Just like the Western Conference Finals last season, everyone played hard.
However, at the last moment, the Nuggets still lost.
The final key ball, Billups did not know who to give. The pass after hesitating was also intercepted by Kobe.
94-90
The Nuggets lost to the Lakers by 4 points at home.
Although they lost, the Nuggets' morale boosted.
They can drag the second Lakers in the Western Conference to this point without Li Nan, and they are certainly proud.
After this game, the Nuggets won two weaker opponents.
However, some people are unhappy because Li Nan is coming back.
...
In the Nuggets locker room before the start of the away game against the Spurs.
"Michael, you seem to be in a bad mood today?"
Li Nan came to Reid with a smile, but Reid was quite wary.
"No, I'm happy."
In order to prove that he is happy now, Reid also opened his mouth and laughed "hehe".
Li Nan punched him, "Don't pretend, I know what you think. Don't worry? I won't play today, I will just follow it."
"Li, don't do things with me anymore. You wear all your team uniforms." Reid pointed to the long-sleeved team uniform that Li Nan was wearing. He didn't want to believe Li Nan's words.
"Hey! You idiot! Is he like that kind of liar?"
Reid looked at Li Nan and shook his head, "You don't look like it,"
Li Nan was quite satisfied with this answer, but after a while, Reid suddenly said, "Because you are."
Li Nan regretted letting Fordson and others train Reid in particular. What an honest guy before, now he dares to tease me.
Li Nan shook his head, and eat the melons he grows.
"Okay, no more jokes, I'll tell you seriously."
Li Nan tried his best to put on a serious look, "After playing today, you have to be especially careful of a guy named Bruce Bowen. This guy doesn't talk much, but when he speaks, it may hurt people. But it hurts more. It was his unexpected defensive action."
"What action?"
"Do you know how Vince of the Raptors hurt?"
Reid thought for a while, his eyes rolled, and then shook his head:
"do not know."
Li Nan thought he really didn't know, "It's just that when that guy can't defend his opponent, he may stumble, hit black hands and black feet."
Who knows, Reid said earnestly at this time: "So, Lee, you have to be careful later when you play, and be careful that the guy has a black foot. If you just recovered your wrist and hurt your ankle again, it would be a pity. what."
Li Nan looked at Reid.
"Michael, come here."
"What are you doing?"
Reid was cautious, not daring to approach.
However, Li Nan was a hungry tiger rushing for food. He directly clamped his neck with his hand, and gave him a chestnut with the other hand.
"Good boy, dare to tease the captain of me, huh?"
"Oh! Li, give me a break, I won't dare again next time, at most, at most next time, oops~~~"
Watching Li Nan and Reid play around, there was a "hahaha" laugh in the locker room.
Some of Arenas and Fortson also took the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and gave Reed a few shots.
It made the whole locker room noisy.
...
"Today's starter, Chauncey, Michael,..."
When D'Antoni read out today's starting roster, Reid was also a little unbelievable.
"Is there really me?"
Li Nan also stretched out his hand angrily, and Reid felt his neck shrink as he raised his hand to cover his head.
"Hen~ don't worry, Michael, I won't hit you."
"That's the best (but it's
Reid's words were not finished yet, but suddenly
Snapped!
"Ouch! Hiss~~~"
Reid's thigh was so hot and painful, and a few looming finger prints appeared on his light black thigh.
"Lee, you can't believe me if I am you."
"You still say?"
Li Nan raised his hand, and Reid hurriedly shrank.
"Oh, oh, don't fight! I beg for mercy!"
Li Nan could not be beaten in a fight, and the status of the team was not as good as Li Nan. Reid had to escape.
...
The Spurs breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the Nuggets did not start with Li Nan.
Many old Spurs players, many San Antonio fans saw Li Nan not playing, everyone was relieved.
Because the Spurs are like the Rockets, Li Nan will explode every time he encounters it. The Spurs lost badly every time.
No Spurs fan likes Li Nan unless Li Nan comes to the Spurs.
Before the game, Bubvić came over and shook Li Nan's hand.
"Lee, you are really saving face."
Reach out and don't laugh at the face.
Li Nan also responded with a smile.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, I hope you'll be gentle later."
"OK! OK! No problem at all."
Bubvić smiled and left, feeling a little proud with every step.
However, he can be proud.
For a half-dead team like the Spurs, he used two years of patience to make the team come alive.
The Spurs now crushed the Mavericks and ranked third. Even the Spurs won the game against the Lakers and Kings ~EbookFREE.me~.
It can be said that the Spurs are a dark horse in the West, very dark and dark.
Many media have ranked the Spurs among the top five favorite teams to win the championship.
Looking at the guys standing around the white-haired old man, Li Nan couldn't help but sigh:
"The bad old man does have a set. However, I won't let you succeed!"
...
The game started soon.
Spurs starting:
Parker, Finley, Bowen, Robinson, Curry,
Nuggets starting:
Billups, Reid, Hamilton, Wang Dazhi, Wallace
.
As soon as the game started, the Spurs suppressed the Nuggets.
The Spurs are very similar to the 76ers, almost carved out of a mold.
Orders and prohibits, whoever should do what they do.
They play this kind of system basketball, and their favorite game is against opponents of the same big system basketball.
The Nuggets mean something like this.
So, as soon as it came up, the Spurs took the lead.
However, they only led by a few minutes, and the field quickly changed.
Reed and Hamilton's double-run tactics are open, even the 76ers can't defend the tactics, and the Spurs, the "newborn", can't help it.
Both sides began to enter a period of balance of power development.
As soon as the rotation came up, the Nuggets completely reversed.
Although the Spurs' bench has a somewhat enchanting Ginobili, Arenas of the Nuggets is a new born bull who is not afraid of tigers, leading the rotation lineup to open the score in one fell swoop.
When the main players from both sides come back, the Nuggets are even more powerful.
The Spurs didn't seem to expect this to happen. Several counter-attacks were fruitless, and in the end they could only lose.
