After Carlesimo left, Stephen began to think about Carlesimo's words. Stephen had nothing to think about the previous rational explanations. What he mainly thought about was that he would be a very good player in the next game. An important role, what kind of role will it be, the main attacker of the team, this possibility Stephen never thinks about, if it is not the main attack, it must be defense, but with Bruce Bowen, how can he give himself too much playing time Woolen cloth.

A game is only 48 minutes if one position is fully played. According to the general standard of playing time for starters, the remaining playing time is generally about 15 minutes. If there are second and third substitutes, the time will be even longer not enough.

Stephen found the schedule and looked at it. The next game is an away game against the Indiana Pacers. Is there anyone on this team that needs attention?For this team, apart from the fight at the Palace of Auburn Hills last season, Stephen only remembers Reggie Miller, nicknamed "Big Mouth", and has no impression of anyone, but Reggie Miller seemed to be Has retired.

For Reggie Miller, Stephen’s understanding started from his trash talk. One time, when he learned to talk trash with Robert Horry, no matter what Robert Horry pointed out, Stephen’s trash talk was not that hurtful. Taste, in the end, Robert Horry thinks that his trash talk style is not suitable for Stephen. Stephen should learn from Miller's trash talk, because Miller inherited the faction of "Big Bird" Larry Bird, which is trash talk A character at the level of the originator.

In addition to his "Miller moment", Reggie Miller is most remembered for his middle finger and his magnanimous, wanton, wild rebellious spirit, whether it is disrespect to Jordan or in Madison Garden Center. That rebellious performance proved his arrogance to dare to be the enemy of the whole world.

When he's up against someone like Jordan, he can take a shot and say, "See, you son of a bitch." Not to mention he always comes after a shot in front of Stackhouse. One sentence: "Do you want to know why my salary is so much higher than yours? This is the answer." When he beat the Knicks, he even jumped onto the scoring table and shouted to the New York fans in the audience: "This ball Dedicated to you dogs, motherfuckers."

Every time he saw his unrestrained behavior, Stephen was a little suspicious, could he be as arrogant as him?Can I use trash talk like him to attack the opponent's self-confidence? Can I stretch out my middle finger without fear in front of thousands of fans? Can I call them a bitch without scruple?

But this guy has retired, so he shouldn't need to defend him anymore, so the target of defense should be the current players in the Pacers, whether it is Ron Artest or Stephen Jackson, they are all of that kind of physical abnormality and style of play. A tough player, no wonder Carlesimo said that he will play an important role.

What Stephen didn't expect was that after the Indiana game started, the head coach Popovich didn't let himself play soon. Even when Bruce Bowen was at a disadvantage against Ron Artest, he still let him Sit on the bench.

Could it be that Carlesimo deliberately deceived himself with lies? Stephen glanced at Carlesimo. Carlesimo quickly felt Stephen's gaze and gave him a calm look. Stephen received it , immediately settled down, and waited with peace of mind. Originally, what Stephen had been doing was to not allow himself to play for the entire game. If he did, it was a surprise. It was Carlesimo who gave him a hope, which made him feel worried .

After the Pacers replaced a new player, Popovich turned around and beckoned to Stephen, getting Stephen ready to play. Stephen took off the T-shirt he was covering, thinking secretly, could it be Coach means putting yourself on this guy.

Stephen, the Pacers guy who just played, also has a certain impression. He seems to be a rookie of the same year as himself. His name is Danny Granger. He is a player from the University of New Mexico. Sure enough, after Stephen is ready to play, Popovich immediately told him that his task was to defend Danny Granger in the team's tactical system, and as for offense, just follow the routine.

Stephen has not participated in too many teams' tactical drills, but he still has a certain understanding of the team's tactical routines. Whether on the offensive or defensive end, as long as Duncan is inside, there is no need to worry too much. Duncan can both attack and defend, and in the perimeter defense, whether it is Tony Parker or Ginobili, they are the kind of players who are very willing to defend, coupled with Bruce Bowen's defense of strong players, the Spurs Although it cannot be said to be the best defensive team in the league, it is also among the top three.

Stephen was replaced by Michael Finley. When Stephen faced Danny Granger, Granger was already holding the ball and smiled at Stephen, just as Stephen was still hesitating whether to return the smile. , Danny Granger has suddenly started, passed by Stephen, left Stephen with a back, and then made a shot.

"Concentrate, this is on the court, don't be distracted for a moment." Robert Horry came over and patted Stephen and warned him. Stephen also knew that he was confused by the player who was at the same level as him. He just wanted to let himself relax. Be vigilant, and then break through your own defense. It's too cunning. They've just entered the ranks of professional players. They've only played a few games. How come the opponent is like an old ball ruffian, and even learned such a trick? .

"You have a vegetable leaf on your teeth." When Stephen faced this guy again, Danny Granger smiled at Stephen again, but Stephen straightened his face and said to Granger, Granger It was just a distraction, because he just ate a hamburger before the game, and he couldn't help sticking out his tongue to lick his teeth.

"You've been fooled." Stephen said to him suddenly, and then he stretched out his forearm violently, and his hand had already reached the ball in Granger's hand. How could his strength be stronger than that of Stephen's? In addition, Stephen had planned it long ago. Stephen snatched the ball and then passed it directly to Tony Parker who was running down. Pick, the ball has rolled into the basket.

After two more rounds, the ball came into Granger's hands again. This time, Granger was not as friendly as before. Looking at Stephen with unfriendly eyes, Stephen still smiled and looked at Granger with a smile on his face. He said: "It was just a warm-up just now, and now it's officially started." Then he stretched out his hand again.

"Hmph, do you think I'll be fooled again?" Granger was already mentally prepared. Even though he refuted Stephen with his mouth, he didn't stop. After avoiding Stephen's attack, he was about to rush towards one side. However, he saw Stephen's body, which was out of position due to reaching out, swayed, and returned to himself again.

At the same time, Stephen was still squeezing Granger's position hard. This guy was so strong that Granger couldn't stand up because of being squeezed, so he could only keep moving outside, sighing in his heart while thinking about what to do. How to break through Stephen's defense.

Seeing that Granger was about to lose his position being defended by Stephen, Sarunas Jaskovicius, known as the "King of Europe", ran over to meet him. After leading Lithuania to defeat the US team in the Athens Olympics, Jaskovicius was favored by many teams. In the end, it was Larry Bird who rushed to Europe in person to impress him and chose the Pacers. Unfortunately, his performance in the Pacers was not good, exposing Europe. Players can't adapt to the weaknesses of NBA-level confrontation.

He blocked Stephen for Granger, Granger got rid of Stephen smoothly, but Jaskovicius was hit by Stephen and flew out, because the referee happened to be watching clearly, it was Jas Kovishus took the initiative to bump into Stephen, so he didn't call Stephen for a foul, but let the game continue.

"That kid is really strong." The same sentence sounded from the Spurs' bench, the Pacers' home broadcast booth, and many places above the stands, although Jascovicius' lack of confrontation ability is well known In fact, being able to knock him out just by relying on passive force like Stephen did proves that Stephen is physically strong.

When Stephen turned around and took the initiative to take the ball, Ron Artest took the initiative to come over. His idea was naturally to confront Stephen head-on. It goes without saying that when he squeezed over, Stephen immediately felt that the defensive pressure was different. The muscles on this guy's body were as hard as pig iron, and his hands kept making small movements.

Stephen tried a few times, but he didn't find any space to break through. Even if he wanted to pass the ball inside, it was not so easy. He really deserved to be the guy who took out the best defensive player. Compared with others, his defense was really good. Level, seeing Ginobili waving for the ball outside, Stephen immediately passed the ball.

"Hehe, don't dare, you're being a softie, you cowardly guy." Artest refused to let Stephen go so easily, and when he saw Stephen pass the ball, he immediately leaned into Stephen's ear Said, with a sarcastic smile on his face.

Stephen returned him a ignoring look, thinking that such trash talk would be able to irritate him, then turned and ran to one side. On the one hand, he released the space in the middle for Ginobili to break through, on the other hand, he also brought Walk the defender.

Artest naturally knew that Ginobili's threat was far greater than Stephen's on the offensive end, and he could go over to flank Ginobili now, but Stephen's idiot-like eyes stimulated him, and he immediately chased after Stephen. past.

Who knew that Stephen ran back suddenly, and the two of them collided immediately, one intentionally and the other unintentionally. Although Artest's weight was more than ten kilograms heavier than Stephen's, he was still bumped by Stephen. A stagger, not leaning against Austin Crosier next to him, Artest almost fell to the ground.
