Chapter 462 Marathon
The Spurs have many players who can lead the team at critical moments, and the most stable of them is Duncan, who has been in the league for many years.When the Lakers waved the offensive banner, he stood up again and blocked the Lakers' momentum with two consecutive blocks.This is something that cannot be measured by statistics, but it has a great impact on the game.
Josh Smith has a historical level of physical talent, and his golf quotient cannot match it. As soon as he encountered a little setback, the previous momentum was forced to stop.
Buck used such a commentary to evaluate Duncan: "As long as Tim Duncan is still on the court, the Spurs will not fall easily."
With the help of Aldridge and Duncan's continuous screens, Ginobili broke through and landed on the court, continuing to maintain the lead.
The two sides tried their best, and the intensity of physical confrontation rose sharply, and the corresponding efficiency dropped sharply. Even Xu Tian, who was very accurate, had consecutive misses.This is the intensity of the playoffs, and no one can break free.
Kobe had an ankle injury, but he still stood watching the game, paying close attention to the direction of the game.
Nick Young received an assist from Xu Tian and made a priceless three-pointer, reducing the difference between the two sides to seven points with 3 minutes left!
Duncan looked at the scoreboard above the stadium, ran to the frontcourt at a slow speed, and directly grabbed a position in the penalty area.
Josh Smith's core strength is very strong, but compared with the broad-shouldered and strong Duncan, there is still a slight gap.I tried my best to get stuck in the position, but unfortunately it still didn't work.
Ginobili's passing skills are very good. The lob passed Xu Tian's defense and passed to Duncan who was in the penalty area.
Duncan's most expressive nickname is the big basic skills, which represents his style, unpretentious, epee without front.The textbook-like post-up singles were played, and the core strength crushed the top-defense Josh Smith, found space, turned around and wiped the board for a layup.
Josh Smith has a sky-defying jumping ability, jumps quickly on the spot, and slaps the ball with his right hand.Just when his blood was boiling again, the referee's whistle was like a basin of cold water, extinguishing it.
Defensive ball interference, two points are valid!
81-90, 2 minutes and 43 seconds!
Xu Tian received the serve in the backcourt, faced Kawhi Leonard's tight defense of the whole court, and advanced with the ball in a calm manner, and the eight-second attack time passed halftime.
Most of the Lakers fans have stood up from their seats, watching the game nervously, not knowing what the result will be.
According to the tactical arrangement, Ginobili quickly ran to Xu Tian's side and formed a double-team with Kawhi Leonard, resolutely not giving Xu Tian any chance to start easily.
Popovich has done everything he can do as a coach, if he still can't stop Xu Tian, then he has nothing to say.
Xu Tian dribbled the ball and hit Ginobili on the left. Relying on his physical strength, he forcibly squeezed out of his body, wanting to continue to make a breakthrough with the dribble.
Kawhi Leonard reacted quickly enough to block Xu Tian from his side, and would rather pay for a blocking foul than give him a chance to get rid of the double-team defense.This is his defensive strategy, and it's executed well.
The number of Spurs fouls has reached, and Kawhi Leonard's blocking foul sent Xu Tian to the free throw line.
Barkley said: "The Spurs never want Xu to find his shooting rhythm. They would rather send him to the free throw line than give him a chance to shoot or break through."
Kenny Smith responded to his partner with a smile: "If I were the head coach, and the opponent's star shot 65.1% in the first round, I would not let him shoot easily. Even I understand the truth, How could Gregg Popovich not understand."
Xu Tian stood on the free throw line, took the first free throw for a long time, and accidentally slipped out of the basket!
This is the game, Xu Tian missed a free throw for the first time.He pushed his tongue against the braces, alleviating the disappointment that followed.
The second free throw, hit steadily!
82-90, 2 minutes and 32 seconds!
The fans at the Staples Center, who have been baptized in the playoffs for a long time, understand that the team needs their support at this moment, shouting for defense in unison, and fully displaying the home court advantage.
Boss Jin sent Alice to her and Xu Tian's small villa "Taoyuanju", then drove back to his home, and quickly turned on the TV to watch the final stage of the game.
Alice turned on the lights in the living room, also eager to watch the game, turned on the TV with the remote control, and then sat on the sofa to watch the game quietly.
Duncan received a pass inside, attracted Tyson Chandler's defensive attention, and passed the ball cleverly to Aldridge, helping the latter complete a violent dunk!
82-92, 2 minutes and 12 seconds!
The difference between the two sides came to 10 points!
To be on the safe side, Scott called the last timeout of the game and arranged offensive and defensive tactics.This is his risky attempt, as for the effect, it is impossible to predict.
Xu Tian seized the time to get rid of the sweat on his body, added a little water urgently, adjusted his breathing rhythm, and listened to Scott's tactical arrangement.He didn't play much time in the fourth quarter, but he consumed a lot and didn't want to talk at all.
Kobe replaced Mark Madsen, and after Scott had arranged the tactics, he emphasized some details, trying to help the team find the key to victory.
On the Spurs bench, Popovich sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, and then let GDP and Shuangde stay on the court, maintaining the previous offensive and defensive tactics.
The Lakers fans felt extremely nervous, and they didn't even bother to watch the cheerleading performance, and focused their attention on the players on both sides.They want to see how the players are different than usual, to pick out signs of what might happen next.
The Spurs held the lead, and their players were generally as calm as a robot, with no facial expressions.On the Lakers side, almost all the players believed in Xu Tian and had no worries, while Xu Tian was even more calm, as if the game on the field had nothing to do with him.
The referee blew his whistle and called the players back to the field to continue the game.
Xu Tian put the braces back in his mouth, took the frontcourt sideline ball with a calm expression, bent over and continued to face the Spurs' defense.
Kawhi Leonard felt as if he had run a long marathon, feeling extremely exhausted physically and mentally, but he saw a light not far away, and forced himself to pull himself together to complete the final defensive task.He only scored 9 points in this game, but no Spurs fan will blame him for not attacking.
Xu Tian passed the ball to George, and then began to run without the ball, but this time he failed to get rid of Kawhi Leonard who was chasing with all his strength, and the offensive end was blocked from receiving the ball.This depends not on Kawhi Leonard alone, but on the defense of the Spurs.
Unable to find a chance to play the ball, George dribbled past Tony Parker's defense and rushed to the basket. He wanted to use his personal ability to open the situation for the team.
The stone Buddha seems to descend from the sky, and the giant palm slaps the ball in the hand!
George's offensive attempt ended with being blocked.
