Coach, I don't want to retire yet

Chapter 302 Bobo who feels insulted!

"Tim, if it was ten years ago, you would definitely not have stood back and defended this goal, right?"

Garnett came down from the basket, looked at his stunned old opponent, and said with a smile.

Garnett's last offense was a combination of running and shooting, with poor touch, but he used running and shooting to attract Duncan forward, blocking Duncan and grabbing an offensive rebound.

As a super good defensive player, facing the same situation this time, Duncan must make defensive changes.

Garnett's old age means that he has a poor shooting percentage on such difficult shots. He can be allowed to shoot, mainly to prevent Garnett from using his experience to block offensive rebounds.

So, this time, Duncan didn't jump, and even took a step back deliberately when Garnett came over, giving Garnett more room to sprint.

Finally, Garnett completed this shocking dunk.

Do you think there is a problem with Duncan's defense this time?
From Duncan's point of view, there is no problem at all.

Even Duncan couldn't have imagined that Garnett could dunk on him in this situation!
So, as Garnett said, if it was ten years ago, he would definitely not underestimate Garnett so much.

Just now, he really underestimated Garnett.

Garnett looked at Duncan, who was expressionless again at this time, smiled, turned around and prepared to return to defense.

"Tim, look down on me, but it will be the background board."

After turning around, Garnett stopped, finished speaking, and added another sentence.

"Almost forgot, the last thing Tim is afraid of is being a backdrop."

Ok?
Duncan looked at Garnett's back in front of him in surprise. Garnett's voice was filled with nostalgia and inexplicable regret when he added this sentence.

"Before, I was too afraid of being someone else's background board. I only wanted to show off. I never thought that victory is the most important thing."

After Garnett sighed, he left.

All that was left was Duncan with his eyes wide open again.

"KG..."

After looking away from Garnett, Duncan immediately looked at Du Kang next to him.

Duncan's eyes were filled with shock.

Coach D can actually successfully transform the elderly Garnett who is ready to retire? !

How incredible this is!
A veteran ready to retire with no motivation to change.

Therefore, Du Kang gave Garnett motivation, restored his physical strength, and restored his strength to [-]% of its peak.

Then, Du Kang can knead Garnett at will.

When it comes to the Lakers, let alone Garnett, even Danzi and Kezi have to doubt life!
In the first season of Du Kang's coaching, he really doubted Ke Zi's life.

"This game is not easy to play!"

Although the Spurs are still 4 points ahead, Duncan has already felt the danger.

For the Lakers fans at the scene, Garnett's super offense just now also gave them a completely different feeling.

"This game, we may still win! This game, we still have a chance!!!"

Garnett's two wonderful offenses in a row made the Lakers fans on the scene completely enthusiastic.

And the big score of 20 to 16 at this time really gave Lakers fans an opportunity.

After 6 minutes, the game came to the official suspension stage, and at this time, the entire stadium became a sea of ​​cheering Lakers fans.

On the contrary, as the leading team, the Spurs felt a little anxious on the bench at this time.

Duncan faced Garnett throughout his career, and it was not easy to play.

Duncan's career shooting percentage exceeds 50%. Playing Garnett, his shooting percentage is only 46%. Of course, Garnett's career shooting percentage is also 50%, but playing Duncan is only less than 46%. The scoring, assists, and blocks are also very similar.

At the same time, Duncan, who has the advantage most of the time, has a record of 33 wins and 19 losses against Garnett, which is a superior record, but Garnett also won a lot.

In the 01-02 season, Duncan's MVP season, the duel between Duncan and Garnett was 2-2.

In the 02-03 season, Duncan's MVP season, the duel between Duncan and Garnett was still 2-2.

And the amazing thing is that the records of the two are tied, the statistics are also tied, and the performance on the court is also [-]-[-].

It is precisely because of these two years that Garnett has gained a lot of glory. In the past two years, Duncan has established the number one power forward in history, and the power forward who is the number one power forward in history. What kind of grade is that? ?
As for the other super power forward driver, well, in the past two years, the driver has basically had no traffic. Although he has begun to beat the Wolf King, no one is bragging about it or paying attention to it.

Therefore, the three power forwards of Driver, Wolf King, and Duncan are actually quite interesting.

The driver restrains the wolf king, the wolf king and Duncan restrain each other, and Duncan restrains the driver a little bit, the driver can't defend Duncan, but Duncan can defend the driver a little bit, the driver is at a disadvantage against Duncan, the two peaks meet in the playoffs, Duncan He once scored 12+ points in 20 consecutive games as a driver, 11+ points in 25 consecutive games, and averaged 12+ points per game in 30 games.

This is Duncan, who is not good at scoring, but when he meets a driver, he can score 30 or 40 points at every turn.

Duncan had 4 40+ games in the playoffs, and two of them were against the driver.

Do you know why Duncan is the most successful of the three power forwards?
Compared with the wolf king with offensive weaknesses and the driver with defensive weaknesses, Duncan is perfect.

Because of perfection, no one will suffer from beating anyone.

This is a relative term. It was still very uncomfortable for Duncan to beat the Wolf King.

Duncan played Garnett in his career. There were 52 games in total during the regular season and playoffs. Only 2 games scored 30 points. There were 50 games in which the shooting percentage was 23%. Among them, 5 games were exactly 50%. Excluding these five games. , 18% in just 50 games, just one-third.

It takes two iron games to play three games.

This is Duncan.

Therefore, after Garnett was very excited to see this game and seemed to be in good condition, the reason why Popovich suddenly became so nervous on the sidelines.

After so many years, if you want to say who Duncan's most difficult opponent is, it has to be Garnett.

Even beating the driver and O'Neal, Duncan didn't feel that uncomfortable.

In seven of Duncan's ten career playoff scoring games in the top ten, he beat Driver and O'Neal.

Playing Garnett, there was not a single top-ten scoring game.

Therefore, Duncan's lifelong enemy has always been Garnett.

The timeout ended and the Spurs attacked. This time Popovich didn't hide when he saw Garnett out of shape, although Duncan is currently at a disadvantage in physical strength.

Although he was put together by Coach D in the formation, Duncan faced his old opponent Garnett with inferior physical strength.

However, Popovich still believes that Duncan's strength should be higher than Garnett's. Now Garnett still has a good restrictive effect on Duncan, in terms of height, weight, defensive experience and skills, Garnett is indeed top-notch.

However, Duncan is still stronger!
Therefore, after Duncan handed the ball to Leonard at the top of the arc, he cut to the basket almost in the same way as Garnett just now.

Duncan didn't intend to ride and dunk Garnett.

Instead, prepare to use stronger endurance to get rid of Garnett.

Garnett followed him to defend, such a long sprint distance, Duncan can still sprint now.

But Garnett, can he continue to rush like this?

This is not a sprint against Danny Green and Finson on the offensive end, but a sprint against Duncan!

"Garnett will soon be exhausted. After Tim jumped up, Garnett couldn't even jump up!"

Popovich is confident.

Duncan, who was dragging Garnett, was ready to force a layup after receiving a pass from Lenner at the basket.

And Garnett, who was beside him, was not squeezed away by Duncan, but actually jumped up with Duncan! ! !

What the hell! ! !

Seeing that Garnett ran so far with Duncan, and was able to jump up under Duncan's pressure, the audience at the scene, Popovich on the sidelines, were all stunned!

"Going to block the shot!!!"

Almost before Garnett's big slap came, Duncan threw the basketball in his hand back!

The block Lakers fans were looking forward to did not appear!
Leonard, who had just passed the ball, did not expect Duncan to pass the ball like this, and this pass was very difficult.

Even if Leonard is a peerless player with long hands and feet, it is still not easy to receive such a sudden and difficult pass.

More importantly, there is no attack time!
After jumping high and receiving the pass from Duncan, Leonard immediately faced Ebanks, leaned back and threw the basketball in his hand.

Such a difficult shot seemed difficult to the Lakers fans on the sidelines.

Clang!
Strike it!

The Spurs, who did not give up the inside offense, failed again after Garnett played.

Pierce, who grabbed the backcourt rebound, threw the basketball in his hand to McAway without giving the Spurs a chance to start a fast break.

Garnett actually started running after him!

Garnett ran, and of course Duncan could only follow.

"It was Popovich who tested Garnett just now!"

"Now it's Coach D to test Duncan!"

"Garnett and Duncan, these two old guys, won't this game be abolished by the test?"

The most important thing about this kind of fast break opportunity is to disrupt the rhythm of the game.

"Seth, not so fast!!!"

Seth Curry was originally planning to run faster and get rid of Dellavedova, but when he heard Garnett's voice behind him, he almost stopped subconsciously.

"Fack! Seth Curry is running back!!!"

Seeing Seth Curry running back to find Garnett, Antetokounmpo, who had just been replaced by Garnett on the sidelines, stood up dumbfounded.

In his dream, he played a lot of matches with the South Korean team's stinking chess baskets, and spent most of his time studying fighting skills.

Just like when Du Kang first signed Ah Lian, Ah Lian only had 7 skills. No matter how many games he played with bad chess baskets, his growth would only be like that.

Garnett, Barkley, Pierce, these veterans have so many years of experience, which is not comparable to young people like Antetokounmpo, Ebanks, and McAway.

Dellavedova never thought that Seth Curry would suddenly run back, and he was already a step slower.

Now stuck by Garnett, he was once again a step slower. In the end, Dellavedova could only watch as Duncan was forced to help defend Seth Curry.

Duncan helps defend Seth Curry. How can he help defend this?

And it’s still here in the middle circle.

In the end, the Spurs could only watch as Seth Curry received McAway's return pass from outside the 45-degree three-point line on the right side, and then pulled it up high!

A swipe!
Seth Curry finally scored a three-pointer!

This is the first ball Seth Curry hit in this game, and also the first three-pointer!
20 is better than 19!

The Lakers are only 1 point behind!
Because he had been suppressed for too long, after a long drought, Seth Curry ran like crazy across the court, flying towards Garnett in the center circle.

After rushing in front of Garnett, Seth Curry jumped directly on Garnett.

This opportunity is rare. Next time, there will definitely not be such a good opportunity. This is not a tactic that can be played routinely.

But so what? !

I played against the Spurs in the last game and made 20 of 2 three-pointers. Do you know how frustrated I was in the last game?
Keep fighting, keep throwing, keep throwing, keep fighting.

The coach is still supporting him and letting him throw, and his teammates are still supporting him and letting him throw, but he just can't make the throw!
Counting this game, he has made 18 consecutive three-pointers against the Spurs!

The 19th one finally hit!
"Seth Curry seemed to be turned on by KG, and KG locked a switch for the Spurs!"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after Garnett came on the court, the Lakers improved their interior defense and offense.

After Garnett came up, the Spurs' interior defense and offense were restricted.

The Lakers are not so fast, but they have become more stable.

"Coach D's Falk basketball is not a constant stimulus, so it can still be played like this!"

"Before this game, Coach D's Faker basketball has been pursuing excitement, so all of us thought that Faker basketball is a happy-to-death style of play without controlling the buttons. Now, maybe we need to re-understand Coach D's method. Grab the basketball!"

Listening to O'Neal and Kenny Smith's surprised words.

The look on James' face before ordering the driver was not very good.

"What are you blowing!"

What is French basketball and another style of play? Coach D obviously gave up French basketball and returned to tradition!
After Garnett was replaced, Garnett became the protagonist on the court.

The previous protagonist was Duncan who dominated everything in the paint.

Now it's Garnett who has better physical strength.

After Seth Curry scored, the Spurs attacked again. This time the Spurs finally switched to Leonard and created opportunities for Leonard.

Facing Pierce's defense, Leonard made two consecutive fake moves without shaking Pierce. The third fake move turned into a real move and hit a fadeaway jumper in front of Pierce.

22 is better than 19!

But then, Garnett singled Leonard under the basket, caught the ball, turned around, faced Duncan's help defense, Leonard blocked the block from behind, and Garnett made a difficult throw!

A swipe!
hit!

Clap!
It also caused Leonard's thug foul.

Seeing that he could hit such a throw, Garnett was stunned again.

Extra penalty hit!

22 is better than 22!

"My God, the Lakers finally tied the score again after falling behind by 8 minutes!!!"

"Not only is the score tied, but the situation of the game has returned to the Lakers' side!"

Garnett's physical advantage over Duncan, this is too deadly!

In order to change the Spurs' style of play, Popovich sent Gasol to the Bulls to strengthen the forward line and actively reduce the strength of the inside line.

Embarrassing Popovich now.

After being attacked by Coach D with Garnett, the Spurs are really embarrassed now.

Although I know that Garnett cannot be in such a state every game.

However, Duncan cannot play in this game.

If the strength is not reduced, the physical strength cannot be replenished, which leads to a vicious cycle.

The first quarter is over.

The Lakers, who were 8 points behind at most, actually led 34 to 28 by 6 points!
More importantly!

"Wade hasn't played this game yet!!!"

"My God, the great coach D, facing the mighty Spurs, won't he be unprepared for Wade, and he can win the game?!!!"

In fact, Popovich did not consider this at first.

The reversal of the game in the first quarter was so addicting to him that he didn't think about Wade at all.

Later, he was always thinking about how to help his dear Daidai reverse the situation.

He didn't come back to his senses until the on-site Lakers DJ yelled when he didn't even see Wade in the first quarter.

Then, Popovich was dumbfounded.

It should be said that Popovich was completely dumbfounded.

"I'm fucked by a Laker without Wade!"

"Farke, the only player in the Lakers team who has strong fighting ability is Wade. Now Coach D has sealed Wade. How can he still beat the Spurs?!"

"Although Garnett's state is very good in this game, it's amazing, and it's impossible to play a game like this in 100 games, but what the hell is I was suppressed by Coach D with the Lakers without Wade!"

Thinking of this, Popovich felt dazed and even dizzy.

Nima's!
He even knows that some media are probably making troubles and hacking him now!
Budenholzer next to Popovich was even more shocked at this time.

Since Bobo became coach D again, he has been thinking about what kind of method coach D will use to humiliate Bobo in this game.

Unexpectedly, Coach D is actually waiting for Bobo here!
Unexpectedly, Coach D, Wade will be sealed in this game, and Wade will not be able to make it! ! !
Is it really like this?

Will Wade really miss this game?
For a moment, the whole world was shocked, and all eyes were on Coach D.

Including Popovich.

The first quarter is over.

During the holiday break, sister Miller interviewed Coach D.

"Coach D, are you sure that Wade will not play in this game? Are you really planning to seal Wade in this game?"

"Didn't you notice? Dwyane was wearing a suit in this game. From the beginning, I had no intention of letting Dwyane play in this game."

From the beginning, I had no intention of playing Dwyane in this game...

Watch that smile on the big screen.

Popovich felt like he was closing in on himself.

Fake!

I came here so fucking aggressively to humiliate Coach D, Coach D, doesn't he care about the outcome of this game at all?

Or, Coach D is so arrogant that even without Wade, he can kill himself in this game!
I am in Coach D's heart, so good?

Holy shit! !
Budenholzer was so frightened that he almost took two steps back.

This soaring black air!

Bobo was spoiled by Coach D! ! !
In this game, either Bobo is broken, or Coach D is going to be broken! ! !
