The strongest champion puzzle

Chapter 91 Break the deadlock
Then Carter missed a three-pointer in his last attempt, and the Spurs won the game 93:90.

Although the score is very close, in fact the Spurs have always taken the initiative, showing off the demeanor of a strong team.

On March 3, the Spurs played against the Cavaliers without Irving at home.

After Irving said that he would lead the team to the playoffs, he unfortunately suffered an injury.

Without Irving, Waiters, whose heart is higher than the sky, has not proved his ability to lead the team. The Cavaliers are completely hopeless now and in the playoffs.

Parker still didn't come back, but Duncan and Leonard blasted their opponents from the start.

Of course, their back line was also blown by the opponent.

Without a strong partner to attract defense, a player of Danny Green's type will also suffer.

However, Duncan's performance in these two games really has the taste of returning to the top. The Cavaliers' insiders have been beaten by him on both offensive and defensive ends. I am afraid that the young players have the terrible idea of ​​this uncle.

In fact, the Cavaliers' offense in this game was not bad, but they were always overwhelmed by the Spurs. When Zhang Xiaotian showed his strength in the fourth quarter, the game was almost over.

After winning the Cavaliers, the Spurs are waiting for the Warriors at home.

The Warriors' main center, Bogut, has returned. In the previous few games, they were bloody opponents. Many people were amazed that there was another strong team in the West.

But this time with the Spurs, the situation changed a bit.

Probably because they came in at home and did not play back to back. Duncan's energy is very good.

Duncan is in good shape, so he is the one who speaks inside. At least Bogut and David Lee are not enough to pose too much threat to him, especially when Old Stone Buddha gave the opponent two big caps in the first quarter.

In fact, Duncan blocked shots very fiercely this season, averaging almost 3 per game, which is about the same as when he was at his peak.

Let's put it this way, the current Spurs, if there are other situations when Parker is scoring wildly, Duncan is basically stable when he dominates the inside.

From the first half rotation period, the Spurs have completely taken the initiative, and then the Warriors are obsessed with the three-guard style of play, but there is no way to solve the defensive problem.

The outside line fights with the touch and has the inside and the outside. Of course, the latter is more stable, unless it can be against the sky.

Curry felt very good but not to the extent that it was against the sky, so the Spurs won another victory without bloodshed.

During this period of time, there were many home games, Yang Feiyu lost his fighting spirit again, Zhang Xiaotian and his life were very nourishing.

After beating the Warriors, Zhang Xiaotian accompanied Yang Feiyu to a big meal to celebrate her liberation.

Mr. Yang's short-term entrepreneurship ended in tragedy. Fortunately, someone took over, and the loss was not so bad that he couldn't eat.

Zhang Xiaotian couldn't help sighing, the rich are different, the whole process from the establishment of a company to the sale is so fast, if he were an investor, he would probably want to kill them with a knife.

This was despised by Yang Feiyu, "Now is the information society, and the high-tech industry comes and goes in such a hurry. How can a guy with well-developed limbs like you understand it?"

"The next step is the graduation thesis, and my life is still very fulfilling."

Zhang Xiaotian despised going back, "Please, although I'm an athlete, I got into college based on my cultural achievements. Speaking of which, I'm still your senior brother. I can't be more simple-minded than you."

He didn't expect that relying on his cultural achievements to go to university would become something he was proud of. He was very uncomfortable when he was not specially recruited.

But he really doesn't understand Yang Feiyu's entrepreneurship.

On March 3, it was still home. The difference is that Parker has returned.

This time it was the Jazz who came to challenge them. The Jazz has an average record and is working hard for a ticket to the playoffs.

I don't know if it's because of Parker's return, or because the Jazz's insiders are not good.

At the beginning of the game, Duncan did not show absolute dominance like the previous few games.

However, he still attracted most of the Jazz's defensive attention and created many opportunities for others.

Sitting on the bench, Zhang Xiaotian was more concerned about Leonard's performance.

To be honest, Leonard's talent made him a little envious, and this guy's growth rate is also amazing.

As soon as the game started, Hayward was locked tightly by him.

Hayward played one more year than Leonard, and he is also the young man that the team focuses on training. At this time, it can be seen that Leonard has grown better.

What should I do, is Pride the man who made him a substitute?

Zhang Xiaotian knows that his talent is average, but if it is on the court, he will not admit defeat.

Hayward was the main force last season. The Jazz originally asked him to try to play the sixth man this season, but in the end he was put in the starting lineup.

In this case, what Zhang Xiaotian will face is Marvin Williams, a very experienced player on both offense and defense.

Although the former No. [-] pick did not grow into a star player, he has managed to gain a firm foothold in the league. He has comprehensive skills and is difficult to deal with.

It is quite uncomfortable for Zhang Xiaotian to play against such a solid player.

Coupled with Ginobili's poor feel, the Spurs rarely suffered a disadvantage in the rotation.

Fortunately, their defense is good, and the main players are also very powerful.

Although they only scored 38 points in the first half, they only allowed the opponent to score 41 points.

To put it bluntly, the problem for the two teams now is offense.

The two teams have similar solutions to the problem, both of which are to allow the inside to play with the ball, and the outside players to disperse and wait for opportunities.

Al Jefferson and Duncan have done a good job. The games of the two teams are very entangled. They often hit the iron and both hit the iron, and both score and score. The ball from the inside, Randy Foye and Danny Green also They all seized the opportunity.

This kind of situation is not uncommon in the game. If the team can't hold on first, it will definitely lose.

The Jazz entered the fourth quarter with a lead, but entering the final quarter, it was Leonard who took the lead.

It's just that the Spurs are about to overtake the score just now, and the Jazz's shooting percentage has also increased. Their substitute players seem to have suddenly enlightened.

After Zhang Xiaotian came on the field, he immediately played a 2+1, and the score gap between the two teams narrowed again.

The Jazz also reacted quickly. They dropped a guard and let Hayward and Marvin Williams play at the same time, increasing their height while continuing to strengthen their defense.

This lineup can be both inside and out, and it is more appropriate to use Marvin Williams to consume Leonard.

But at this time, if the insiders of both sides want to play singles calmly, there will be no chance.

But the trouble is that the score is still ahead of the opponent. If the Spurs don't do something to break the deadlock, the less time the game has, the more passive they will be.

Just when the air in the arena was about to freeze with tension, Leonard suddenly made a successful steal.

After he got the ball, he passed it directly to Zhang Xiaotian. Zhang Xiaotian quickly dribbled the ball to the opponent's half, stopped in front of the three-point line, pulled it up, and threw the ball.
