Chapter 791 The last card of the Spurs

The combination of Robinson and Duncan must still be the top priority for the Spurs.

This time the Spurs' attack was on the left and right sides, and Li Shengli stuck Robinson with his back, watched Duncan and Green single-handedly, and even Duncan took the lead when he saw it just now...

Duncan, the cold-faced king, actually played a big change in the face of Green, but Green was hit, and his center of gravity was biased. Duncan immediately went sideways and went to the basket, and Li Shengli could only save him at the basket, so he also took care of it. Instead of going up to Robinson's position, Li Shengli went straight to Duncan.

"Fox!"

"it is good!"

When Li Shengli just left, he called Fox.

Because the Lakers brothers who are familiar with the Spurs brothers know that the ball is likely to be split, so Fox also immediately launched a defense, that is... a little slower, Robinson has moved from the low post on the right to the penalty area, taking Duncan's point The ball immediately hits a jumper.

……

According to general principles.

The initial defense does not need to be targeted, because everyone's state is different. It can only be said that everyone's state and feel are determined through a part of the time, and if the ball is pushed back...

If Duncan is not in good shape and Robinson is in good shape, then let Green chase Duncan to block and not let Robinson go;

If Duncan is in good form and Robinson is not in good form, then the handling will be the same as before. He guards the charging Duncan and lets other teammates guard Robinson;

And if both of them are in good condition, then the defensive end can only choose the nearest defense, but only one offense can't see much.

……

Then to the Lakers offense.

Kobe is still holding the ball at the top of the arc, and the frequency of ball transfer is very high. In Phil Jackson's tactical thinking, the purpose of quickly transferring the ball is to create the opponent's defensive weak side. This ball obviously did it... Fisher ran back from the bottom line to catch the ball and shot immediately.

Kobe's position at the top of the arc has a wider field of vision.

But Fisher's position is not good, and there is no time to see Li Shengli's position, so he can only force a shot. After hitting the iron... Li Shengli's speed to the basket is not as fast as the previous round, but the plot is still the same. He took a position ahead of Robinson and faced head-on. Duncan, but Duncan has more buffer time than the previous round.

Supplementary deduction? !

Both Li Shengli and Duncan thought of it.

First, Li Shengli tensed his muscles and wanted to push the ball back, and then Duncan... I just simulated Li Shengli's dunking situation. This time, I didn't want to compete with Li Shengli for rebounds or blocks. , the longest middle finger touched the ball first, poking the ball up with a flick.

Middle finger? !

Is that what the middle finger is for? !

Fortunately, no one noticed this detail during the confrontation.

The two landed at the same time, but the time for the second take-off was too late for Robinson, who arrived on the back foot, so the rebound was taken by Robinson, and when Robinson held onto the stable situation and Li Shengli led the team back to defense, Duncan ran to Li Shengli's just now. The position jumped once, and it was like catching the ball with one hand.

Although there was no ball this time, the cold-faced king Duncan still had no expression on his face, as if he was looking for more defensive possibilities, and Li Shengli, who was still running backwards, looked at Duncan and really wanted to scold the street... Damn, are you bad, kid? The ball has been poked and scrapped, did you mean it?

……

A few more rounds followed.

The Spurs' defensive end.

If Li Shengli's position cannot be taken care of, then Robinson will simply give up all defensive tasks and focus on defending Li Shengli alone.

If Li Shengli plays the most violent low post with the ball, then Robinson can only carry it alive, but fortunately, the thin camel is bigger than the horse. Robinson and Li Shengli, who are also in the west, have fought a lot. I can carry it for a while.

So at the moment when the confrontation entered the penalty area, Duncan would support him and stuck Li Shengli's position on the edge of the penalty area. He could shoot a jumper but couldn't reach the basket.

The handling of the ball after double-teaming is predictable, and the Spurs can accept this result.

Because Green, who was leaked out, can't play Li Shengli's terrible effect at the basket, so how to choose... The Spurs brothers are very clear.

As for the Spurs' offensive end.

Robinson made a sacrifice, and most of the first offense was given to Duncan.

To be honest, Duncan's current combat effectiveness and Green's peak period can't be compared, not to mention that Green is also old now, so when he is completely unable to defend... Green's weakness involves Li Shengli's defensive position, allowing Li Shengli to let go. Opened the defensive suppression of Robinson.

Admiral Robinson actually became Duncan's first mate or second gunner? !

Apparently Robinson didn’t care about this. He got the half-air defense created by Duncan several times in a row, and Fox, who was playing supplementary defense, had a height difference. There was no pressure on the mid-range jumper. He made 4 shots and made 2 of them. It's too exaggerated, but it's still too high to continue hitting 50% of the mid-range shots.

There is no way, Phil Jackson yelled from the sidelines, and Li Shengli immediately switched defenses with Green, and this situation was included in Popovich's plan, and he also responded.

Compared with Li Shengli's strength on the defensive end, it is clear that Green is still a breakthrough point.

As a result, the Spurs' offense immediately became Robinson and Duncan playing high and low.

The 35-year-old Robinson played against the 37-year-old Green. In the slow offensive and defensive rhythm... Robinson's turnaround jumper was quite smooth, and he was still able to keep half of his hits.

It's just that Li Shengli has no problem carrying O'Neal in his peak period. After all, the ability to check the school is still exerting strength.

Duncan suffered a lot at this point, but for any rebounds that came out of the penalty area, he would be stuck by Li Shengli and couldn't get the rebounds at all, but Li Shengli who got the rebounds was also confused by Duncan... because the Lakers counterattacked back and took the lead. Duncan still imitated him with a blank face, raised his butt, and simulated that no one was stuck in the seat.

Damn, this thing must be intentional!

Li Shengli was very angry, but the offensive end was restricted outside the penalty area, and the touch of the jump shot was not good.

Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages to this, because the good news is that the Spurs have not relaxed their care of themselves, and Kobe and a few teammates have a smoother offense... It was originally an opportunity to find the strong side to play the weak side by shifting the ball, and usually find out Usually it is a three-on-two on one side, but now Robinson and Duncan guard themselves, and the strong side created by transferring the ball outside can even play a three-on-one effect.

……

A 25:25 tie was played in the first quarter, because the Spurs brothers were in good condition, and the twin-tower tactics were smooth because of the stability of the mid-range, while the Lakers enjoyed the benefits of Li Shengli being double-teamed, only three-on-two, or even three-on-one. The offense of playing one can't take the lead, and the feel is really not good.

The second quarter starts.

Phil Jackson left Fisher, because Fisher was 3 for 0 in the first quarter, and Crotty was on top.

Although Crotty's defense is of little significance, Phil Jackson, who knows people and uses them well, knows... Crotty's offensive ability is limited, but his fixed-point shooting ability is still very strong due to hard training.

Now it's all about the strong side playing the weak side. It's too easy to find a fixed position. But at the beginning of the game, he made an amazing three-pointer. Crazy Crotty dared to shoot. point.

The situation is changing all the time.

The efficiency of the Lakers' perimeter has exceeded the limit that the Spurs can accept, so the Spurs' double-teaming was disbanded on the spot and more defensive forces were dispersed to the perimeter. Li Shengli, as a center, is much less demanding than the perimeter. Immediately, he let go of the low post and scored consecutively to the basket. Robinson was getting more and more overwhelmed. This also caused a watershed in the score of the second quarter... In the case of a tie in the first quarter, the Lakers took the lead in the second quarter 5 points.

5 points is not much, but it is a signal!

Popovich was very helpless on the sidelines... At the beginning, I saw the Spurs brothers in good condition and Li Shengli's turnaround jump shot was blind. I felt that the Spurs encountered the weakest Li Shengli today and got the biggest advantage in the game, but the problem is Li Shengli's basket is not affected by the touch, and he can dunk as he wants.

In the first quarter, the Spurs restricted Li Shengli, and Li Shengli scored 5 points; in the second quarter, the Spurs released Li Shengli because of Crotty's three-point threat, and Li Shengli scored 15 points;

There is simply no reason to speak of this!

It really came to the second half... limited to the state of the players, there were only so many tactical changes, and Popovich felt that the Spurs played at least 70% of their strength in this game, but the Lakers' performance was significantly lower than this ratio. Even if he passed the test, he was still better than himself.

Strong may not be playing, it may be strong in stability, strong in the Lakers' ability to deal with any disadvantages, and the message conveyed in today's game... is very dangerous, because the Lakers' requirements for breaking the game are too low.

Just because of a Crotty with an inexplicable touch caused his own defensive system to collapse?

Today is Crotty, tomorrow it can be Fisher, and the day after tomorrow it can be Tyronn Lue. Anyone can be the key to breaking the game. If Kobe Bryant broke out steadily, the result would be even worse.

So, in the hands of the Lakers in the third quarter, the Spurs lost another 5 points.

Including Popovich, everyone in the Spurs is thinking about a question... As for the combination of Li Shengli and Kobe, how to play this horse, not only this season, but the Lakers may be riding in the future for a long time. The top of the Western Conference, and the best playoff results for the Spurs may be to stop in the Western Conference Finals?

This is a very distressing thing!

Popovich thought of David Robinson... As the cornerstone of the Spurs, Robinson is getting harder and harder, which means that the strength of the entire Spurs is predictably declining, but the Lakers have been stable because of Li Ke's combination. Before Robinson retired, he didn't form a suitable team for Duncan, so the Spurs can't even play in the Western Conference Finals.

……

Until the end of the fourth quarter, the score of the two sides was 83:93!

The Spurs did not lose points in the final quarter, and only lost 10 points in the game.

It's just that Robinson's playing time is only less than 36, and the rest of the time is full of substitute inside meat shields to carry Li Shengli.

李胜利26+15，科比31分收尾，而马刺方面……罗宾逊的18+8数据已经高于当赛季场均了，但还是比不及对位的李胜利，好在冷面王邓肯拿到了30+11外带5个助攻的数据可以作为马刺最后的牌面。

This deck is a bit weird!

From Li Shengli's point of view... Although Duncan's behavior is a bit confusing, he is indeed the top four position. If he can play with him, there is no suspense for the championship. The combination of dead skinny guys is definitely fine, but the problem is that it's impossible.

So even if they finally win the Spurs and join forces with the Green Army again.

Li Shengli is also thinking...without Big Ben and Barkley, what will Garnett do to him? After all, the Celtics are the real enemy, and after the game, Li Shengli approached Phil Jackson with a clear intention. , Later, we must engage in tactics against Duncan to deal with the strongest Celtics that may be encountered in the past ten years.

Cold noodle king Duncan?

If the urban management from Los Angeles doesn't smash your cold noodle stall, then we won't be able to play in the next game? !
