第197章 3:1或者2:2?
"Mike, you lost this game, what do you think of this game?"
"The Spurs players played extremely well, especially Tim. He completely dominated the game on both offensive and defensive ends in the interior. Facing the outbreak of such a good player, I think most teams in the league, including us, have no problem." In this state, Duncan is unstoppable."
"So you think Amare is far inferior to Duncan? He was beaten by Duncan in this game."
D'Antoni shook his head secretly. The only role of these guys is to lead the fight. Seeing the reporter's expression with a bit of excitement, D'Antoni cleared his throat and said: "Every player has ups and downs in physical condition, and Amare... ..."
……
The reporter was stunned for a moment. D'Antoni's operation really stunned him. What was he talking about? That's not what I want to hear! ,
Amidst D'Antoni's gags, Popovich's praise for the Suns, and the reporters' bewildered reactions, the postgame press conference was over, and the Suns players returned to the hotel exhausted.
"Shocked! The Spurs win for the first time. Experts predict that the Spurs will beat the Suns 4:3!"
"Popovich smiles, the odds are in his hands?"
"D'Antoni admits that Duncan is the greatest star in the NBA!"
……
What the hell is this!
Under the urging of the dark-faced D'Antoni, the Suns players started a day of training. Gao Tian was a little worried when he arrived at the Spurs Arena. What if the Spurs management didn't agree to open the door for them to go in for training?
But later it turned out that he was thinking too much. Not everyone is like the future Pao Ge, who is a thief and a thief. Thinking of this, Gao Tian felt a little embarrassed. He has not contacted Paul for a long time. Since the Suns entered the season After the game and the Hornets entered the playoffs, Paul never called him again. It seems that I have to find a time to call Paul and ask him where he went on vacation recently, and ask him to recommend some places for himself next time. , After all, he is the first to play every offseason, which is really cool.
"Ah!"
Paul, who was training in the arena of the New Orleans Hornets, suddenly sneezed without warning. What was originally a perfect three-pointer became a three-pointer because of this sneeze. Paul frowned subconsciously. Scolded him?
Gao Tian told him that as long as someone scolds a person, that person will sneeze. Although he scoffed at Gao Tian's remarks at the time, he looked at Ricky Davis who was beside Gao Tian with a look of faith Coupled with what he said about the mysterious power from the East, Paul was actually a little dubious in his heart.
Thinking of Gao Tian, Paul's face turned black. This guy is usually so arrogant. Now that the team has reached the semifinals, he may be able to do so. So Paul vowed that he would not play until the Suns' playoff journey is over. The one who called Gao Tian, once he called, Gao Tian's vicious mouth might tell him how to bury him.
In other words, as a member of Wake Forest University in the tiebreaker between the Spurs and the Suns, he could not miss the battle between the two best basketball players in Wake Forest history. It is very interesting to think about it. God, but Tim is different. Tim is a sultry man who only treats a bitch like Gao Tian. When the Suns are defeated by the Spurs, Paul has to laugh at Gao Tian to death, making him still regretted losing the playoffs in the Hornets Then I called him specifically to "comfort" him.
Gao Tian, who is far away in San Antonio, naturally can't feel the resentment from Paul. His current situation or the situation of the Suns is very difficult. In the fourth game of the series between the two sides, the last thing D'Antoni wanted to see happened. After playing two home games in a row, the Spurs' outside touch finally recovered in the second half of the game. In the opening game, Manu Ginobili and Hawley scored three consecutive three-pointers to stop the Suns.
So the Suns are now in an embarrassing situation. Duncan on the inside can't defend them, and the Spurs shooter on the outside has exploded again. What should we do now? Which one should we choose?
After waiting for three games, Popovich put this two-choice poison in front of D'Antoni. After thinking about it, D'Antoni didn't know which one to choose, which one is the most important for the current Suns. deadly.
Gao Tian felt the tremendous pressure from Duncan in front of him. Looking at Duncan, who was about to hit him singles, he signaled his teammates to come over to help defend, but he just made a gesture as if Duncan, who was facing away from him, had seen it. His movements seemed to be as if he turned his back directly to seize a step of space, taking advantage of his height and wingspan, then turned around and directly hit the board with a hook and hit.
Although Gao Tian predicted Duncan's plan, he still didn't touch the ball. Duncan's shot timing and protection of the ball are really excellent. The timing and rhythm of simple movements are very good. Excellent, full of experience.
Gao Tian glanced at the score after the goal was scored. The point difference between the two sides was almost 2 points. Two minutes into the fourth quarter, D'Antoni still hesitated. Gao Tian couldn't help but sighed in his heart. He knew that now D'Antoni has scruples in his heart, but if he doesn't change, the Suns will really lose. The way now is to choose one of the poisons and drink him to defeat the Spurs before the poison occurs.
No matter when, constant hesitation will only lead to defeat.
"Mike,"
Stotts hesitated to speak. Looking at D'Antoni who was struggling, he sighed, but he didn't say what he said after all. He knew how difficult this coach's position is. At this critical moment, a head coach needs to There are too many things to consider. If he is D'Antoni, he may not be better than D'Antoni.
"Still blocking the outside line of the Spurs."
Seeing Duncan return to the double-digit point difference again after dunking, D'Antoni said a little unwillingly.
In the end, he chose the same defensive strategy as the last game. Compared to the horror scene of the Spurs shooting from the outside, he would rather watch Duncan score continuously. After all, Duncan’s athletic ability and physical strength have declined after he was injured. Duncan is not a god after all. .
The defense of the Suns players who received the order became clear in an instant. Diaw went to wrap Duncan, and other players surrounded the Spurs' perimeter. However, the Suns players' touch has returned to a range close to the normal level after the last game, especially Nash. Two three-pointers led the Suns players to quickly catch up to only one point.
At this time, it was less than 20 seconds before the end of the game, and the Spurs had the last chance to attack. There was no doubt that the Spurs would hand over the ball to Duncan.
Everyone in the AT&T Center, including those in front of the TV, did not dare to breathe a sigh of relief. This is a goal that determines the trend of the series. The Spurs score such a big score. It is likely to be tied. The two sides returned to the same starting line again for the Tianwangshan battle. , If you don't score, then it will give the Suns a chance to make a lore, and the Suns have the player with the highest number of lore hits this season and the highest percentage of key shots. The Spurs almost handed over their fate to Gao Tian.
How does Duncan fight?
Everyone held their breath and looked at the calm-faced No. 21 who was about to ask for a seat at the basket.
