Super Role Player

The 6-point difference directly caught up to 2 points, and then the Spurs took advantage of the victory to pursue, and directly hit two waves of fast breaks, turning the difference over.

The reporters off the court were happy for nothing, and the Spurs began to control the rhythm steadily.

In the middle of the second quarter, Anxi, who started the game, was replaced and rested, Danny Green played, and Stephen Curry also left the field to rest. The Warriors did not have Curry on the court, but replaced them with David Lee, hoping to continue to maintain their offensive power, but David Lee's ability is aside for the time being, his state alone cannot be averaged in the playoffs. 30 points compared to Stephen Curry.

So the Spurs took advantage of this gap and began to widen the points difference.

Aaron Baynes stuck David Lee hard, David Lee's back singles, turned around and missed a jumper.

The Spurs immediately protected the rebound and then launched a fast break. Mills made a quick layup and the point gap widened.

Then the Warriors got the ball or David Lee. He played Aaron Baynes in the high post. Aaron Baynes's offensive ability is lacking, but his defensive performance is still very good, otherwise Popovich would not use Aaron so much. Long Baynes played twice, David Lee Kankan pushed Aaron Baynes, and then, like the previous one, pushed Aaron Baynes, turned around and made a jumper, and finally scored.

However, the Spurs turned around and returned a three-pointer, and the gap widened.

Mark Jackson is a little anxious. His performance in leading the team this season is already very good, but the team has never intended to renew his contract. This makes Mark Jackson suffocate. He is thinking, if he takes the Warriors. In the end, even if the Warriors' management did not want to renew his contract, they had to renew his contract, right?

For this Warrior, Mark Jackson sees it very clearly. The potential is endless. Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson on the outside are both super three-point shooters. There is also David Lee on the inside. This combination continues to be a partner, and the future of the Warriors is unlimited. .

But now against the Lao Spurs, the Warriors' lack of experience is somewhat obvious.

The point difference continued to widen, and in this way, after two quarters, the Spurs led by 11 points. This point difference is equivalent to the fact that the Spurs directly won the Warriors by 15 points in the second quarter, which looks quite terrifying.

The second half of the game officially began, and the two sides re-attached the main force. Although the Warriors were 11 points behind in two quarters, the Warriors still had a chance to win. They let Stephen Curry rest for half a quarter to prepare for the second half.

At the beginning of the game, the ball was handed over to Stephen Curry. Stephen Curry first scored 2 points with a breakthrough jumper. Then, when the ball came back, Anxi took the pass from Parker and shot it, but was rushed to the shot. Klay Thompson interfered.

With a bang, a jumper was missed, and Andrew Bogut got stuck and grabbed a rebound.

An Xi failed to score the first goal of the third quarter. He was a little depressed, holding his head and quickly returning to defense. Although the Warriors had all kinds of rants before the game, Anxi played cleaner in this series than in the previous round. After all, players like Zach Randolph who are full of swear words are still a minority in the league.

Although he was clean, Anxi also felt the pressure. The pressure the Warriors put on him...

In fact, this is the common idea of ​​all Spurs players after halftime. The Warriors’ play style is fundamentally different from that of the Grizzlies. The Warriors are more inclined to offense, and it’s the kind of explosive offense. So this game, The Warriors will always burst out suddenly, shocking the Spurs in a cold sweat. Players like Anxi who missed the ball felt even more pressured. After all, every missed goal was to give the Warriors a chance.

The Warriors quickly began a counterattack. This time it was Stephen Curry who took the ball. He rushed to the frontcourt and repeated his skills. It was another three-pointer running and hitting with a scream.

Stephen Curry clenched his fist and then waved it. This three-pointer directly reduced the difference between the two teams to 6 points.

The Warriors opened a wave of 5:0, and Popovich became anxious. He stood on the sidelines with his hips akimbo and made a press-up gesture.

Tony Parker also returned a gesture to show that he understood.

The meaning of Popovich's gesture is actually very obvious. He is asking the Spurs to attack with all their strength. First, stabilize the attack.

Tony Parker was still holding the ball steadily. An Xi suddenly came out at this time and directly helped Parker block Curry. Parker took a step and cut towards the inside. Klay Thompson immediately went to make up the defense, and Anxi faced Stephen Curry in this way.

At this time, Parker passed the ball back, Anxi received the ball and faced Stephen Curry's defense. In this way, even if Anxi encounters a chance to play a misplaced singles, although it is recognized that Stephen Curry's defense is not good, Anxi dare not make such generalizations. He dribbles the ball seriously and is not ready to directly cast a shot on Curry's head. Three points.

After holding the ball for a while, Anxi suddenly made a breakthrough, swayed Curry, and then stepped back and jumped directly.

Although Curry also reacted in time, his interference was still a step slower. He could only extend his hand as much as possible to block Anxi's sight.

But it's not very useful. The basketball slammed into the hoop with a precise sound.

After the goal was scored, Anxi's second goal finally did not miss again. This shot also made Popovich a sigh of relief. The point difference expanded to 8 points. Next, the Spurs only need to maintain these 8 points. The advantage is enough.

In the next game, the Spurs did what Popovich thought. The Spurs' offense was very stable, and the Warriors were always able to burst out wave after wave.

In the seventh minute of the third quarter, Mark Jackson couldn't sit still. He got up and called the first timeout of the second half. At this time, the Spurs led the Warriors by 9 points at 72:63, and the 9-point difference was placed in the third quarter. , In fact, it is still a trackable point difference, but the most critical problem now is that the Warriors have no meaning to catch up with the point difference at all, which makes Mark Jackson very impatient.

"The Spurs' performance is very stable. They firmly hold their lead. Compared with the old Spurs, the Warriors are much worse. They have a momentum, but it is difficult to narrow the difference."

The two commentators of Turner Sports began to analyze the situation of the game. The two commentators dispatched by Turner Sports for this game are Mike Trick and Mike Brin, which can also be regarded as the trump card combination of Turner Sports.

Hearing Mike Trick’s analysis, Mike Brin also nodded and said: “Before the game, people said that the Warriors are dark horses, but their dark horse journey is basically over, because they met the Spurs. I think this In other words, it makes sense, because the Spurs are characterized by stability, they can use their stable state to beat you. If you switch to another team, perhaps the Warriors can also use their explosive offense to defeat opponents. Then win the game, but against the Spurs, this trick won't work."

Mike Brin also analyzed a pass, the game came back, the Warriors also began their adjusted offense.

The time-out Warriors made a more obvious adjustment. They replaced Jared Jack and made Klay Thompson the small forward position. The combination of two point guards obviously hopes to play a smoother offense, not that kind. From time to time, a wave of offense erupts.

On the first ball, Jared Jack and Curry came together. Curry reversed the hang and passed the ball to Jack who cut the ball. Jack rushed inside, completed the layup, and scored 2 points.

The Warriors' bench cheered, but they were quickly overwhelmed by the boos from the att arena.

The Spurs’ offense was still not rushed. Tony Parker passed the halftime. Then Duncan mentioned the high post, a pick-and-roll, Parker rushed inside and David Lee made it up. As a result, Parker made a pass back and Duncan received the ball. On Curry, it formed a big fight against the small.

Duncan was naturally unwilling to let go of this opportunity. Although his position was a little farther away from the maximum range he could grasp, after all, he faced Curry, which was equivalent to an open opportunity.

So Duncan made a jumper in place and hit it with a scream!

The Spurs also scored, and they still don't give the Warriors a chance.

The game continued, the Warriors' David Lee suddenly pulled out the inside line, blocking Parker with a bang for Stephen Curry, Curry moved a step, taking advantage of Duncan before he came forward to make up the defense, directly hit a three-pointer. .

A three-point precision hit! The Warriors' bench is boiling.

Then, the Warriors were like finding a scoring kit. They used Curry's pick-and-roll to make a three-point jumper, hitting consecutive three-pointers.

The score difference has shrunk rapidly from 9 points, 8 points, 7 points, 6 points...

By the time Curry and Thompson hit 5 three-pointers together, Mike Brin was already exclaiming: “Another three-pointer! Another three-pointer! The Oakland Warriors rained three-pointers. The game is far from over! The Warriors have beaten the Spurs!"

Mike Brin didn't care about being slapped~www.novelmtl.com~ and shouted in excitement. The three-point rain played by the Warriors was indeed very exciting.

With a beep, Popovich also called a timeout. The Warriors' sudden explosion made him a little helpless, and there were 2 points left, but Popovich didn't blame anyone. He knew that the Warriors' tactics were a bit rogue. Yes, it is through the pick-and-roll, staring at your weak side and hitting hard, and after the pick-and-roll, the direct jump shot is played. Even if the weak side is pre-arranged for defense, it is too late to make up.

Anxi was actually a little nervous. He was actually responsible for these few goals. The Warriors made 5 three-pointers and almost every goal was hit on the weak side. And he thought of Popovich’s arrangement before the game, so I'm afraid Popovich will trouble him.

Popovich didn't find Anxi's trouble, but he threw Curry's trouble directly to Anxi.

"Ann, next, you go to defend Stephen Curry, remember, it's single defense."

An Xi nodded, knowing that Popovich was going to use his single defense ability. (To be continued.)
