Chapter 492
Xu Tian understands that Kobe has a deep understanding of the basketball game, and has won championship trophies many times, so he knows how to help the team win.Nodding to accept his suggestion, then quietly rested and adjusted.
Kobe was eager to play, but he knew he had to be patient.This complicated feeling made him tormented like an ant on a hot pan.
The timeout elapsed quietly, and when the referee blew his whistle, both players returned to the field.
Kobe was wearing a standard black suit. Looking at his teammates in purple jerseys, he felt a sense of envy.He is an athlete who loves basketball very much. It can be said that he likes to play games more than any other player, but the reality of injury prevents him from playing. This will always bring some sense of loss, which no one can completely shake off.
Xu Tian stood at the top of the arc, waiting for Tony Parker who dribbled over.
Ginobili took the initiative to receive the ball from Tony Parker, dribbled the ball with his left hand, and tried to find a breakthrough opportunity.The defensive player he faced was Nick Young, who was much wiser than challenging Xu Tian.
Nick Young's defensive posture is not good, the center of gravity is not completely lowered, and his right hand is stretched too far forward.This is a very bad habit, and masters who are easily deceived and fouled seize the opportunity.
Sure enough, Ginobili didn't let go of this opportunity at his fingertips. He took the ball with both hands, hooked Nick Young's arm, and directly made a shooting action.His performance is exaggerated, as if he was hit hard by Nick Young.
The referee needs to fight against the scorching stadium environment, and must also be highly concentrated. It is impossible to judge whether Nick Young has committed a foul for a while.Because Ginobili acted like that, the success was due to a thug foul.
Xu Tian was not far from Ginobili, and directly sprayed: "You can play smart, but don't look like a woman!"
Ginobili didn't expect Xu Tian to spout trash talk, his face turned blue and white, and finally he didn't expect to spit back, so he simply ignored Xu Tian and stood directly on the free throw line.
The Spurs fans saw Xu Tian's mouth move, knew that he was probably attacking verbally, and booed the referee and him, trying to put psychological pressure on them.However, the effect of this move is not obvious.
Ginobili made two free throws!
108-100, 2 minutes and 08 seconds!
Xu Tian used small moves to get rid of Kawhi Leonard who was sticking to the defense, received the serve from Josh Smith, and rushed forward at high speed.This is a more important item for him to break the double-team. Even if his physical strength is about to bottom out, he must be resolutely implemented.
The Spurs' defense line was like a slanted line, all attention was focused on Xu Tian, and he was restricted successively so that he could not find a breakthrough space.But this kind of defense ignores one point, that is, Xu Tian is the king of assists and does not completely rely on his personal ability for singles.
The basketball hit the floor, bounced back up, and landed in George's hands.
There was no one in front of George, he took off in two steps from the free throw line, grabbed the ball with his left hand, and dunked vigorously with one hand!
110-100, 1 minutes and 54 seconds!
Popovich understood that this was the reason why the whole team's defensive attention was on Xu Tian, so he didn't blame the players, and stood on the sidelines, watching the game calmly.
The sweat on Xu Tian's body was like rain, soaking the entire jersey, and scattered wantonly with the movement of the defensive end.This is the double result of the temperature of the venue and hard defense. The average player really can't bear this kind of intensity.
Tony Parker tried to challenge Xu Tian with a dribble, but lost his rhythm while moving, failed to shake Xu Tian away, and was once again blocked by the attacking space.His physical strength is also exhausted, and he can no longer hold the ball steadily.
Xu Tian saw the timing, cut off the ball held by Tony Parker, and kicked it out of bounds.At the same time, his right leg could no longer support it, and the calf muscles gathered together, causing unstoppable pain.
At this time, his tired body could no longer bear the pain, causing Xu Tian to fall to the floor and call a timeout.
Gary Vitti and the team doctor hurried to Xu Tian and asked him how he was feeling.
Xu Tian explained that it was just an ordinary cramp, took the two outstretched hands, and stood up from the floor.
Gary Vitti held Xu Tian's hand and saw that not only was his palm sweaty, but even the back of his hand was dripping with sweat.Competing in this environment is really exhausting for athletes.
Scott made an adjustment and asked Clarkson to replace Xu Tian, and let him play for a while.
Xu Tian sat on the floor in front of the bench and asked Gary Vitti to ice his cramped muscles.At this time, he needs to deal with the injury first, otherwise it is easy to get injured again.
Popovich should have felt happy seeing Xu Tian's physical exhaustion, but the Spurs were far behind, so he couldn't get excited.No matter what method is used, the ultimate goal of the game is to win, if the goal cannot be achieved, everything is in vain.
Players from both sides returned to the court, and the Spurs continued to attack in the frontcourt.
With the help of a screen, Ginobili ran out of a small offensive space, caught the ball and missed a three-pointer!
McGee protected the defensive rebound and handed it directly to George to take him to the frontcourt.
George played for a long time, and his physical strength was a bit unsustainable. He made a fake fax shot from the top of the arc and faced Kawhi Leonard's defense and made a three-pointer.This is a very risky offensive choice. If you make a shot, you are a hero. If you fail to make a shot, it may cause the opponent to counterattack.
The basketball draws a perfect arc and hits the net!
113-100, 1 minutes and 19 seconds!
Popovich looked at the time and point difference, knowing that this game basically lost hope of a comeback, he called a timeout, did not arrange any more tactics, replaced all the main players, and let the players who are rarely on the field play the game.
Scott did not expect that the Spurs would make personnel adjustments. Seeing that the opponent sent players who were rare to play, he made Clarkson take the initiative to foul, and also replaced all the main players, allowing Thackeray and Huertas to have a chance to appear.
Xu Tian originally thought that he would not get much rest time, but he was relieved to see the Spurs voluntarily giving up the game.Although he could withstand the high temperature of the venue, it would definitely be extremely uncomfortable if he continued to fight.
Thackeray didn't have a deep sense of the temperature in the stadium. After playing two rounds, the back of his jersey was soaked with sweat.This made him admire the main players who can withstand this environment.
The bench lineups of both sides played peacefully for more than a minute. In the end, the Lakers defeated the Spurs in an away game with a score of 115-105, chasing the series score to 1-2!
Xu Tian didn't have the habit of saying hello to his opponents. Seeing the red lights around the backboard turned on, he turned and walked towards the player tunnel, leaving the court that resembled a big steamer.
The Spurs fans were a little frustrated, but they cheered up and cheered for the players who had fought hard throughout the game, and then began to leave their seats in an orderly manner, and left the stadium dejectedly.
