One day later, the Trail Blazers played the second game of the series at the Moda Center at home.

When the referee blew the whistle to start the game, many people suddenly felt that something was wrong with this game.

That is, the Spurs' starting point guard Jiang Hao appears to be very offensive.

In the first wave of offense, when Jiang Hao advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, he didn't hesitate at all and went directly to the basket with the ball, turning to Aldridge's blocking screen.

Bang!

He quickly completed a dunk with extremely violent aesthetics.

Jiang Hao is not the kind of person who likes to dunk in games. Even throughout the playoffs, no one has seen him dunk.

But what happened tonight? It was a dunk.

"Beautiful, China Jiang's dunk is extremely lethal. He told everyone that it's not that he can't dunk, he just doesn't want to dunk."

Matt Bonner led the fans in praising Jiang Hao's dunk from the perspective of visual impact.

After completing a dunk, Jiang Hao did not stop his attack. Then he completed the steal of Lillard's pass on the defensive end, and then performed speed and passion. After quickly rushing to the frontcourt, a

A deadly three-point shot shot out.

Whoosh!

Less than 1 minute into the game, Trail Blazers head coach Stotts had no choice but to immediately request a timeout.

Jiang Hao forced him to do this with an unreasonable 5:0.

On the Spurs bench, Popovich looked a little better. This is so right. Jiang Hao has to show this decisive momentum. He was in this state in the series against the Rockets, and facts have proved that other than me,

In whose state is Jiang Hao really capable of becoming the candidate in his heart?

Popovich didn't say anything to Jiang Hao. He just took a deep look at Jiang Hao and then told the team to pay attention to the smooth transition between offense and defense. When necessary, Aldridge and Pau Gasol can

The position is slightly stretched out, after all, the Trail Blazers' inside line does not have very strong pulling power.

After returning from the timeout, although the Trail Blazers strengthened their defense against Jiang Hao, Stotts found that this did not seem to be of any use.

Because Spurs No. 35 looked like a different person tonight. He was very decisive in handling the ball. He passed the ball when he needed to and attacked when he needed to attack without any hesitation.

Neither Lillard nor McCollum seemed able to keep up with his rhythm.

Whoosh!

"Jiang is crazy. He hit again. He almost defeated the Portlanders with his own strength. God, this is incredible. Jiang has already scored 20 points. This is the playoffs. This is the semifinals of the playoffs."

"

Matt Bonner felt that he was short of words. He didn't know what words he should use to praise Jiang Hao's performance.

The entire Moda Center fell into complete silence at this time. From the perspective of the home fans, even though they were booing all the time, they felt tired. Is that Spurs No. 35 really a human? He killed one by himself.

A team.

41:22!

This was the score between the two teams after the first quarter. The leading side was the Spurs. They scored a crazy 41 points in the first quarter, directly widening the point difference to 19 points.

But those who have witnessed this game must admit that, strictly speaking, the entire Trail Blazers were blown away by Spurs No. 35.

Because the Spurs are in such a good situation now, 80% of it is due to Jiang Hao.

In the first quarter of the game that just passed, this crazy No. 35 scored a total of 20 points and 6 assists.

Whether it's an outside three-pointer or a breakthrough with the ball, it's like being possessed by God, it's all terrifying.

As a commentator on the scene lamented, during the past period of time, Portlanders seemed to be fighting against God.

Popovich finally smiled. In fact, he was very shocked at this time. Although he knew that Jiang Hao was very strong in his other state, he did not expect to be so strong.

With 20 points and 6 assists in a single quarter, is this kid playing this level of competition like a summer league?

In other words, I still don’t understand this child? So what is the upper limit of this child?

"What a good seedling, he is our future"

Popovich secretly said to Englander.

But the latter had to shake his head helplessly. The better Jiang Hao performed, the smaller the chance of him staying.

Compared to the relaxed atmosphere on the Spurs' bench, the atmosphere on the Trail Blazers' side seemed particularly grim.

Damian Lillard clenched his fists, and his face was extremely ugly, because for them it was not just the pressure of the score. Listen, the fans were already madly dissing them. It was obvious that everyone was dissing them.

The performance in the first quarter was very disappointing.

Spurs No. 35!

Lillard muttered these words silently in his mind. He couldn't bear the thought of a rookie acting so presumptuously at the Moda Center.

Therefore, as the team leader, he must respond in the second quarter.

Lillard played the entire first quarter, but when the second quarter started, he refused head coach Stotts's rest order and continued to appear on the court.

People always like fighters.

Lillard like this quickly won back the hearts of the home fans, so, soon, the entire Moda Center returned to the atmosphere that a torn city should have.

The home fans wanted to see Lillard go berserk. Zhang saw Lillard hitting the Spurs No. 35 head-on, but Jiang Hao did not cooperate.

Because at this time he was already on the bench.

When the team had a 19-point lead in the first quarter, Popovich would never let Jiang Hao continue to appear on the court. If possible, he even hoped that Jiang Hao would be in the rest of the game.

, don’t show up.

Because he has already seen what he wants to see through the first quarter of the game.

As the star player of the Trail Blazers, Lillard does have a few tricks up his sleeve. After entering the rampage mode, he also felt great and succeeded on the offensive end one after another.

He scored 10 points in just half of the second quarter. If this momentum continues, he might be able to score 20 points in a single quarter like Jiang Hao after the first half.

But a very embarrassing fact is that even if Lillard entered the rampage mode, even if he scored 10 points in the half quarter, the point difference between the team and the Spurs has always remained above 15.

This is very frustrating.

The reason is also very simple, that is, almost every Spurs player performed very well tonight. Each of them was very decisive when taking shots, like a machine, never hesitating, even if they failed to hit the shot.

, but that momentum has always existed.

Therefore. In this case, Damian Lillard's outbreak is more like a lone hero.
Chapter completed!
