Defending champion

Chapter 200

Chapter 20 Stalemate

"Oh! sh...it! Tim, what are you doing? Are you herding sheep? Defense! Defense! Where is your defender? Do you want me to replace you?" Bobo stood on the sidelines Vicky used his hands in the shape of a trumpet, and yelled loudly at Duncan, the core player of the Spurs on the field.

Even though, that one person is the core player of the Spurs, the winner of the three-time Finals MVP.Even though, at the end of the first half, Tim Duncan had scored 14 points and 5 rebounds, and also had three blocked shots.The Spurs were able to take a big lead in the first half.But in this round, Duncan missed someone on the defensive end, and Popovich was right.

It is indeed not a good thing for the Hornets that the Spurs can have such a cautious coach.The Hornets are on the brink of extreme danger.

"Boom" Kenobili relied on Tim Duncan's empty-handed screen on the inside and came out from the inside.

Parker scored the ball and Ginobili had an open three-pointer.However, when Ginobili was catching the ball, he dropped it.This just gave jr Smith a chance to make up defense. jr Smith interfered with Manu Ginobili's shot successfully!

Hilton and Jack used their bodies as meat shields, stuck Duncan and Holly behind them, and protected the rebound.

Jack gets the rebound and the Hornets have the ball!Jack handed the ball to Paul, and Paul dribbled over. He kept waving his hands, gesturing for everyone to run, and pulled out the neutral position...

The Spurs' defense in this round is obviously improved by more than one level compared to the previous rounds.The constant movement between the Hornets' players didn't create space for them to shoot.The Spurs can always make up for the flaws that have just appeared, just like a spider spinning silk.

Paul knew that he didn't have much time to waste himself, and he missed several chances to kill immediately, so now, he could only forcefully attack.

Jack's position in the interior is not always unsuccessful, and this is not the most important thing.The most important thing is that Jack's empty-handed running position was also prevented by the Spurs.Jack is running, he has run back and forth under the basket twice, in a few seconds.He became the person who ran the most frequently on the court, and there was a gap in the past when he ran, but at this time, he was inexplicably blocked by his opponent.

Damn.Why can't this fly stop for a while?Jack cursed secretly in his heart.

The helpless Jack gave up looking for opportunities under the basket and ran directly to the outside.

"Ball!" Jack yelled.

"Finger attack! Guard up!" A voice shouted suddenly, almost before Jack shouted.

Paul was about to make a pass, when suddenly a figure appeared beside him, blocking the passing route.This person is the ace guard Tony Parker of the Spurs.

Seeing that Parker was so easily fooled by him, Paul couldn't help showing a sneer, the corner of his mouth raised high, and shouted: "Jack is not the only one who can attack the Hornets!"

Immediately after a very explosive first step, a smooth step, away from Parker's side, Paul was like a sharp knife and went straight to the Spurs' camp.

Facing the empty Spurs penalty area, Paul went straight to the Spurs' head!

The Hornets played a very smooth offense!In a blink of an eye, the Hornets have chased for 9 points in a row, and the Hornets played a 9-0 spurt.

The stadium, which was extremely noisy just now, is extremely quiet now.Spurs fans don't feel as good about themselves as they see their team in a scoring drought.The audience fell into silence.

Popovich couldn't sit still anymore, and when Parker dribbled the ball past the frontcourt, he quickly called a timeout.Even now, they still lead by 14 points.However, if the Hornets are exhausted like this, the Spurs may be overtaken before the third quarter.

"Doo..." The Spurs requested a timeout!
"Ohsh...it! Whether it's offense or defense, we have to focus! Focus on the game...defense! Defense!..." As soon as the Spurs players returned to the bench, Popovich yelled loudly roared;
……

In the first half of this quarter, the Hornets really performed very well, whether it was offense or defense.So during the timeout, Byron was very happy to stand on the sidelines to welcome his players back.

"It's very well done. We should play like this later. Defense! Defense! Defense!... Quickly play defensive counterattack..." Byron Scott kept waving his arms on the side, and at the same time, kept He was spitting stars at the Hornets players.

"Beep..." The pause ended and the game continued!

The Spurs attack!
Parker dribbled the ball across half court, Ginobili came out from the inside to respond, and the ball reached his hands.After Parker passed the ball, he ran directly to the left corner. Duncan on the inside was running out, and Ginobili was suddenly going down the baseline. The players were surprised, but instinctively kept up with the pace, and the Hornets shrunk their defense.

Jack, who was standing next to him, suddenly yelled, "Bottom corner!"

Parker's hands are still outstretched, a very standard ball-catching action.However, it is too late!

Ginobili saw the Hornets players who were coming to defend, and he didn't even look at the direct ball, and it went directly to Parker's hands.

After Parker received the ball, he pulled it up straight away, shot very crisply, raised his knife and dropped it, and the basketball hit the net with a "swap" sound!
