Nash was momentarily distracted, caught off guard by Zhang Hao's aggressive press. He missed a fleeting opportunity for a breakthrough, leading to a mistake. Zhang Hao reached out and flicked the ball from Nash's dribble!
Instinctively, Nash tried to snatch it back, but Zhang Hao lunged for the ball he had pushed forward. As soon as he grabbed it, Nash pulled him from behind...
The referee's whistle blew: Nash committed a foul!
The game stopped, and the referee went to check the replay.
Nash naturally understood what had happened.
This was his first time starting in his career, and his first offensive play resulted in two consecutive mistakes: an offensive error plus a defensive flagrant foul!
Joy is often built on others' misery; the crowd mercilessly taunted Nash with "ooo" sounds.
While Nash hung his head in utter disappointment, a teammate placed a hand on his shoulder, saying, "Don't lose heart, that guy is different from us. Just focus and play well."
