Chapter 301 Double-edged sword
Many of the fans at the scene were wearing purple and gold No. 24 jerseys. Seeing the Lakers play a wonderful alley-oop cooperation, they burst into enthusiastic cheers while taking advantage of the chaos.
Anyway, in a venue with more than 2 spectators, no one can really hear what you have done.
Both sides started strongly, with the Lakers leading the Spurs by 21 point 20-1.
Ginobili has played for the Spurs for more than ten years. He has a clear understanding of Popovich's tactics, communicates with his teammates while walking, and directs them to execute offensive tactics.
Nick Young is the weak point of the Lakers' perimeter defense, which naturally attracted the attention of the Spurs. After several pick-and-rolls, Nick Young faced Ginobili.
Ginobili is the absolute boss of the Argentine men's basketball team. He once led the team to defeat the mighty US team and won the Olympic basketball gold medal that many countries covet.In terms of leading the team, the Spurs can't beat anyone except Duncan.
Since Nick Young joined Xu Tian, his attitude has improved a lot, but the defensive habits accumulated over the years are still difficult to change, and he is still easily shaken.This is a fatal loophole when facing experienced players.
Ginobili made a breakthrough again, just when everyone thought he would score again, he unexpectedly started to speed up, defending through Josh Smith, and violently dunked!
This dunk is very similar to Bosh's dunk in the 14 Finals.
Unprecedented cheers broke out in the AT&T Arena, and all the fans showed rare enthusiasm to celebrate Yaodao's dunk.
21-22!
Xu Tian looked at Ginobili in the passionate celebration, and couldn't help but think of the joke that was widely circulated among fans - the river in San Antonio went upstream, David Robinson took off his suit, Ginobili's long hair was flying, Tony Parker is still a teenager, Stern is back in the draft, and Tim Duncan from Wake Forest University is about to debut.
Although this sentence contains the emotional sustenance of Spurs fans, every time Xu Tian reads this sentence, it will arouse emotion for the relentless passage of time.But the game is still going on, he needs to return to the game itself.
George served to Xu Tian.
Kawhi Leonard has a calm personality, will not easily express his emotions, and will not be disturbed by emotions on the court.Lower the center of gravity at the top of the arc, and continue to do your job with all your strength.
Xu Tian is the well-deserved top card of the Lakers. He has unlimited rights to handle the ball, split the ball on the left side, and give it to Nick Young.
Nick Young is a sixth man who is strong offensively and weak defensively. If he is sent on the field to defend, he will do nothing.Therefore, it is necessary to give him the ball and let him develop his scoring talent.
Ginobili is 39 years old, and his defensive movement speed has dropped by more than half from his peak. Facing Nick Young, who has excellent singles ability, it seems very difficult.
Nick Yang stopped the ball at the waist, turned and shook continuously, without any effect, and finally chose to ignore Ginobili's defense, and directly pulled up and shot backwards.
Ginobili had a good attitude towards the game, tried his best to defend, and got a thug foul.
Nick Young high-fives his teammates, then steps to the free throw line and executes two free throws.
Popovich sat back on the coach's bench and watched the players play quietly.He knew very well that Ginobili was a double-edged sword, but he still saved the team more times, and with the help of Boris Diaw, he didn't have to worry too much.
Nick Young made the first free throw and made it!
George was replaced by Clarkson, Xu Tian continued to lead the team, and would not rest until the first quarter.
The second penalty, also hit!
23-22, 2 minutes and 21 seconds of the first quarter!
Ginobili received the serve, quickly dribbled the ball to the front court, and distributed the ball to Boris Diaw at the free throw line without stopping.
Boris Diaw made the shaft support, and Danny Green, who was running on the right, scored the ball.
Danny Green flew Clarkson, took a step sideways, and shot confidently from beyond the three-point line.
clang!
Boris Diaw was in the right spot, body-blocked Josh Smith, picked up the offensive rebound easily, and put in a right-handed layup.
Hit the board!
23-24!
Josh Smith has been frustrated on the defensive end one after another, and he is a little frustrated inside, which will not be concealed in his body language.When serving to Xu Tian, he looked listless.
When Xu Tian walked to the front court, he already had a plan in mind.Dribbled the ball at the top of the arc, and called Josh Smith, who ran across the half court, for a pick-and-roll.
Josh Smith admired Xu Tian very much, stood firm and helped Xu Tian block Kawhi Leonard.
Xu Tian used the cover to break through and speed up towards the Spurs penalty area.
The four idle players of the Spurs all shrank, not wanting to give Xu Tian a chance to dunk.
Xu Tian ran to the basket with the ball. From the corner of his eye, he saw Josh Smith who was running down, and threw the ball behind his back to him who was jumping.
Josh Smith caught the ball in the air, dunked vigorously with his right hand, and vented his depression.
25-24!
Xu Tian ran back to the field from the baseline, high-fived Josh Smith after celebrating the dunk, and quickly ran to the backcourt to retreat.
Ginobili organized the attack in the frontcourt and scored Danny Green on the left.
Danny Green didn't stop the ball and pass it to Kyle Anderson running to the basket.
Kyle Anderson picked up the defensive Josh Smith in slow motion, and continued to pass the ball to Ginobili at the top of the arc.
Manu Ginobili's shot fake shot flew to Nick Young who was trying to defend, accelerated his breakthrough to the three-point line, and continued to hit the basket.
Boris Diaw received Ginobili's point, almost pressing the 24-second shot clock, and tiptoed for a three-pointer.
hit!
25-27!
Kobe and George have never been involved in the formulation of tactics. The two sat at the end of the bench to discuss the issue of perimeter defense.
George asked: "Kobe, what method do you think should be used to limit the Spurs' perimeter? Although they can't defend us, it is a bit difficult to win the championship with such a defense."
Kobe said: "What you said is right. The saying that defense wins the championship is also applicable now. In the playoffs, we can only rely on the three of us to block the opponent's perimeter. If we don't fight at that time, I will be sorry for the team. salary."
"I didn't expect that."
"You are also a person who played in the Eastern Conference finals, and you forgot such an important thing..."
Xu Tian dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and found Nick Young who ran out of space during the lateral movement, and passed the ball directly at high speed.
Nick Young received the pass, made no adjustments, faced Ginobili to defend, and made a difficult three-pointer directly in the air.
Ginobili hit Nick Young in the air, and both of them fell to the ground.
Basketball, hollow into the net!
The referee blew his whistle, called Ginobili for a thug foul, and sent Nick Young to the free throw line.
Xu Tian walked over to pull Nick Young up, and then stood on the right side of the free throw line, ready to compete for offensive rebounds.
Playing in the league, sometimes you need to lead by example so that your teammates will believe in you.Xu Tianneng's prestige in the locker room today is entirely due to the result of proactively taking responsibility for the loss and hard training.
