In the Battle of Tianwang Mountain, the Suns' home court, Li Ang was in a good state in the last game.

These factors all gathered into one word for death for the Spurs.

But the Spurs don't want to die yet.

Kidd and Duncan, the highly anticipated pair, have been working together for the second year.

At the beginning, the first point guard + the first forward combined, many media boasted that this would be a more terrifying existence than the OK combination.

The title of "Sports Illustrated" at that time was directly: The opening of a new dynasty.

It's not like Li Ang's transfer to the Suns, Li Ang + Xiao Ao + Nash, at that time, it was just three second-rate stars who formed a team...

No matter how many second-rate stars form teams, they are still second-rate.

With such high expectations, Kidd and Duncan have never even played in the finals, let alone the championship.

This is really unreasonable.

Whether it is against the Spurs, or against Kidd and Duncan.

They can't fail this season.

It was so miserable that it was being praised too high.

So Kidd is particularly different today. He has been very focused since he appeared.

After the last game, Kidd was unanimously criticized.

With 7 points and 8 rebounds, this is really not like the data a maximum-paid player should hand over.

Although Kidd was afraid of his wife, he was also a real man with eggs and birds.

Who can stand this cowardly anger of a real man?

Kidd is very focused today and is determined to play style, level and turn around overnight in the Battle of Tianwang Mountain!

Duncan said nothing today. He didn't pull Ginobili's hair when he warmed up, but focused on training mid-range jump shots in various positions.

Popovich was even more frowning. The rumors that Parker might be leaving have spread now, and the San Antonio newspapers were talking about this.

Originally, the Spurs are in poor condition now, Parker is still coming out to make trouble, and Popovich is in a panic.

Popovich knew that the news was most likely revealed by Parker's agent Hughman.

This is equivalent to giving other teams in the league a hint: "New tea is about to be launched, so brothers who need it quickly prepare."

In short, everyone from the Spurs looked like they were dead today.

But once the game started, don't say that the Spurs are quite strong today.

Kidd showed his value during the first offense of the Suns today.

The moment Nash passed the ball to Li Ang, Kidd and Barry clamped Li Ang tightly. The double-teaming reaction was very fast. It was really the moment when Li Ang received the ball, he had no chance.

Li Ang then passed the ball back to Nash, but Kidd stretched out his long arm and rushed forward to interfere with Nash's shot.

Kidd runs very positively on the defensive end, not like the core of a team at all, but more like a blue-collar boy who is crazy about biting his opponent.

Nash shot and shot under Kidd's interference, but the ball bounced far and was a long rebound.

Li Ang was about to grab the board, but Kidd beat the rebound first.

As a point guard, Kidd can grab 7.4 rebounds this season, which is a very outrageous data.

The Western Conference second center Egg Crab doesn't have that many rebounds per game.

Kidd's secret to grab the board is different from Li Ang. Li Ang uses big ass and bullet speed to bully people.

But Kidd, he really judged the landing point of rebounding very accurately.

It is very suitable to grab such rebounds that are out of the control of inside players.

After getting the rebound, the Suns quickly retreated and did not give the Spurs a chance to counterattack.

Kidd also slowly controlled the ball and passed the half. It seemed that the Spurs had no possibility of fast breaking.

But just in the crack of the man, Kidd suddenly passed the ball and found Duncan who ran to the middle distance on the right.

Duncan didn't need to adjust after receiving the ball, but just went straight to the most comfortable position.

So Duncan directly jumped into the game. Xiao Ao failed to react and interfered with half a beat.

Duncan relied on this half-beat opportunity to shoot the ball steadily!

This goal is not a counterattack, but it is better than a fast attack.

The Suns' defense line has not yet been formed, and the Spurs have already scored.

It is worth mentioning that this is the first time that the Spurs have taken the lead against the Suns since Li Ang's comeback.

That's right, the Spurs were fucked hard for 48 minutes in the last game, and they didn't even lead for a minute.

It's true and mellow.

The effect of being able to make a ball without a fast break into a fast break is what we say is Kidd's organizational ability.

One minute later, Kidd again surprised the Spurs fans.

This round, Li Ang was about to break through Barry with the ball. Kidd attacked him and then took off without saying a word.

This time the steal was so fast and accurate that it directly destroyed Li Ang's dribble.

After destroying the dribble, Kidd squeezed Li Ang away with his strong body, then stretched out his long arm, grabbed the basketball steadily and completed the steal!

He is worthy of being the second-ranked man in the NBA history steal list in the original history.

Not long after the game started, Kidd showed off his strength.

In fact, apart from scoring, Kidd is really good at everything.

He is a pentagonal warrior with no corners.

However, when he brought his other advantages to the extreme, Kidd was also very terrible.

In today's game, Kidd brought his strengths to the extreme.

In the sixth minute of the second quarter, Li Ang made a drift shot and Duncan grabbed the rebound.

After getting the rebound, Duncan directly found Kidd. After all, the Spurs' way to deal with the Suns is to open and close the attack.

However, Duncan did not master the strength of this goal and passed it too high.

Kidd, near the midfield line, must not jump up to catch the ball.

But Kidd knew very well that if he had passed the ball after he landed, the Spurs would have no chance to counterattack.

At this time, don’t pretend to last longer, of course the faster the better.

So, in the air, with his back to the basket, Kidd just clicked the basketball with his hand.

The basketball seemed to have been injected with magic, and Kid flew gently in the air to Ginobili, who had already run to the frontcourt!

When Ginobili received the basketball, he was left alone and easily scored a layup.

In the seventh minute of the third quarter, Li Ang set up cover for Nash.

Kidd winked at Barry, so he changed his defense the moment the pick-and-roll was formed.

Barry stared at Nash, while Kidd followed Leon.

Nash gave the ball to Li Ang without thinking, after all, this was a misalignment.

But Kidd was not afraid, but even took the initiative to fight to interfere with Li Ang's rhythm.

Li Ang carried Kidd and broke through with the ball, then stopped and jumped at mid-range.

Little did he know that Kidd's judgment on the timing of blocking was very accurate.

He was not shaken away by Li Ang's sudden stop, and immediately braked and interfered with the shooting!

Under Kidd's face-blocking defense, Li Ang actually missed the shot!

After Kidd defended Li Ang, many people praised the pentagonal warrior who lacked a corner.

Today, Kidd has a very strong presence.

Rebounding, organization, defense, except for scoring, he burst out all his bright spots.

Li Ang also admitted that Kidd is a maximum-salary point guard today!

With Kidd's excellent performance, the Suns' offense was really curbed.

Kidd's defense is indeed S-level. He played the role of Bowen well today and successfully blocked the Suns' attacks again and again from the outside.

40 seconds before the end of the game, the Spurs only led by 1 point. Li Ang gave the ball to O'O at the basket under the double-team between Duncan and Barry.

Xiao Ao just received the basketball and was about to get strong, but Kidd, who was driven back to the penalty area, took action and cut the ball off!

At that moment, all the Spurs fans who watched TV almost directly overturned the TV.

"Jason Kidd, he finally successfully completed the steal. This is a great opportunity for the Suns to equalize the score! Kidd's defense is too critical, and this may be a defense that kills the game!

Today is simply Kidd’s battle of redemption!”
