Don't talk about friendship. In the world of professional basketball, there is no such thing as friendship.

Duncan did not directly make the conflict public like Pierce, and he was already very restrained and gave the Spurs face.

Popovich must be an enemy of Leon, because only by defeating Leon can he win the championship and retain Duncan.

For this reason, even if he continues to do whatever it takes, Popovich will not hesitate!

While Popovich is still thinking about the big time to keep Duncan, the NBA regular season has continued without stopping.

After the Christmas Day game, the Mavericks can be said to be the luckiest team.

The Spurs are missing Popovich, Ginobili and Pachulia, and the Suns are missing Leon, Nash and Tomjanovich.

This is a good opportunity for the Mavericks to overtake and take first place in the Western Conference!

Moreover, the first game after the Christmas Day game is the Mavericks beating the Suns!

The Mavericks just lost to the Lakers in the Christmas Day game, and now they need a big win to boost their morale.

The Suns happen to be short of major generals, which suits Cuban's wishes perfectly.

In fact, the Suns are not just missing Leon, Nash and Tomjanovich.

Also missing O'Neal.

After O'Neal was tricked by Ginobili and Pachulia in the Christmas game, although the team doctor checked that he was not injured, O'Neal himself felt some soreness in his calf.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, the Suns suggested that O'Neal rest for a few games and observe the situation.

In this way, in the game between the Suns and the Mavericks on December 28, the Suns could only face the Mavericks with the remaining lineup.

The Fab Five became Rondo, Bell, James Jones, Diaw and Bo Sledgehammer.

The one who scores the most in this set is Diaw, but he only averages 15 points per game.

Moreover, there are two first-year rookies.

For those who don’t know, I thought the Suns were a bad team.

Cuban: That’s it? Give me another batch!

D'Antoni: Boss, these are the only ones left, let's just choose!

Nash and O'Neal were sitting on the bench in suits and ties, but Leon was nowhere to be seen.

Don't get me wrong, Liang didn't just let himself go and take Daddario for a spin in his Ferrari as soon as he was suspended.

Li Ang was sitting on the commentary table at this time.

In order to kill the boring time, Li Ang accepted the invitation of TNT TV station and became the special commentator of this game.

This is also Li Ang's first attempt to commentate on a game.

Today, Li Ang is partnered with Reggie Miller, who has devoted himself to the commentary industry just a few years after retiring.

"Li, the Suns have a weak lineup in today's game. Do you think the team really has no chance at all?"

The game was about to start, and Reggie Miller also asked Leon a question.

"It's not like there's no chance at all. What if Dirk and Tracy sleepwalk again in the fourth quarter?"

Although Li Ang said this, after the game actually started, the strength gap between the two sides was still very obvious.

The three core players of the Suns are unable to play, and the team's strength has dropped significantly.

If the Suns are still unaffected without three core strengths, then Nash, DiCaprio and Leon can just pack up and get out.

No matter how soft the Mavericks are, they are still among the top three in the Western Conference.

As soon as the game started, McGrady scored on a pull-up jumper under the defense of James Jones.

Although James Jones's defensive ability is not bad, it is only not bad.

If you want to guard a scoring champion like McGrady, James Jones alone is not enough.

Even though McGrady's scoring average over the years is not as abnormal as it was during the Magic era, this is mainly because McGrady has fewer shots.

The Mavericks team up with so many stars every year, so naturally McGrady can't do whatever he wants like he did with the Magic.

In the subsequent offense, the Suns conducted the attack for a long time without getting a chance.

This should be done in peacetime. When the situation cannot be opened, all you need to do is give the ball to Li Ang.

But today, the Suns didn't have a game-breaking single point in the lineup.

Rondo, Jones, Haslem and Bo Sledgehammer are all pure tool players, but Diaw has some ability to hold the ball and play in isolation.

But his singles ability has not yet reached the level of a superstar.

In this attack, Diaw finally made a jump shot under Nowitzki's defense.

Li Angdu sighed: "What's so difficult about this shot? Why not wait for Nowitzki's body to fall before taking the shot? Diaw is still a little impatient and lacks experience."

Miller:…

I asked you to commentate on the game, but I didn’t ask you to come to Versailles!

In the next round, Nowitzki took the ball and broke through Diaw, and then used his height advantage to force a layup.

Miller asked: "Diaw is about the same height as you. How do you defend these players who are taller than you when you are on the court?"

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Oh, I jumped up to guard. When I jumped up, I was as high as them."

Miller:…

I don’t know why, but Miller always feels that Li Ang is talking like an old gangster now!

In the next few rounds, the Suns played relatively passively.

From the beginning of the first quarter, the Mavericks firmly controlled the game situation.

After the first quarter, the Suns trailed the Mavericks by 9 points!

When Rondo came off the court, they all cast longing glances at Li Ang on the commentary table.

Brother Li, you are holding back your explanation, come back quickly!

Li Ang said that this is only the first game, you have to wait for at least nine more games!

In the second quarter, in addition to McGrady and Dirk, Terry, who had recently joined the Mavericks, was also full of firepower.

After the Jets scored two three-pointers, the Mavericks directly opened the point difference to double digits.

Terry made his second three-pointer and stuck out his tongue at Li Ang when he retreated from defense and passed the commentary table.

For a moment, the fans who had been dozing off all woke up.

Terry actually provoked Li Ang, how brave he was!

Will there be scenes of commentators beating players today?

It's so funny that whenever Li Ang sits on the bench, Terry doesn't dare to challenge him.

But when Li Ang sat behind the commentary desk, Terry became arrogant.

There is actually a reason why Terry is so crazy. The Mavericks have already defeated the Suns once before. If they win again today, the Mavericks' win-loss ratio against the Suns will become 2-0.

This is truly something the Mavericks should be proud of.

Li Ang clenched his fists as he looked at Terry who was provoking him.

Damn it, who can get my jersey?

It's a pity that the fans didn't see the scene where the commentator was actually warming up on the sidelines.

Li Ang was angry, but today he could only sit on the sidelines and watch.

Stern just gave himself a chance and was only suspended for ten games. If he still caused trouble during the suspension, wouldn't it be tantamount to cheating during pregnancy?

When the time comes, why don't we get an additional penalty?

Li Ang really couldn't swallow this breath, so he turned off the super microphone, stood up and shouted at Rondo: "Why are you standing still? Give me more strength!"

Rondo nodded, okay, Brother Li has spoken, Terry, you are gone!

Rondo was determined to make Terry uncomfortable at all times in the next few rounds.

As a result, Rondo began to talk trash in Terry's ears and began to confront Terry roughly.

But Terry felt really good today. In the middle of the second quarter, Terry actually made another three-pointer under the interference of Rondo's long arm!

Li Ang now knows how Terry helped Dirk kill the Heat's Big Three in the original history.

This guy really doesn’t follow the Basic Law!

Rondo was still rejected, which also made Terry madly mock Rondo.

Rondo is a little tired now because he worked too hard on defense.

He was sweating profusely, and Terry was taunting Rondo again at this moment.

Rondo thought to himself that he was going to make Terry uncomfortable anyway, so he...

He actually stretched out his sweaty head and rubbed it on Terry's chest!
