against the front

Chapter 204 Your uncle is still your uncle
"The king's substitutes are really awesome!"

When the substitute lineups of the two teams debuted in the second quarter, the Spurs fans at the scene discovered that relying on Popovich's midas touch, the Spurs, which has always been known for its excellent bench lineup, was actually replaced by the King's rotation lineup. suppressed.

Nicknamed 20-minute Jordan, Manu Ginobili, who almost won the finals MVP, is the main force in any team, but in the Spurs, under Popovich, the Spurs Nu Ginobili is willing to be the sixth man. There is a superstar player who leads the team to play off the bench all the year round. How can the Spurs' bench lineup be weak.

But in today's game, when Manu Ginobili came off the bench, he encountered the Kings' bench led by John Salmons, Spencer Hawes and Serge Ibaka. After that, the Spurs' rotation not only failed to gain any advantage, but was suppressed by the King's rotation.

In terms of personal strength, John Salmons and Manu Ginobili are definitely not at the same level, but John Salmons is also the king's third leader after all. He almost hit 20+5 last season. +5 data, the offense is a panacea, and the defense is also above the standard. With such a player on the court, the King's bench lineup is safe, whether it is offense or defense. In addition, the King's inside line, and Spencer Hawes and Serge Ibaka are in charge, so after the rotation of the two sides, the Kings still have the advantage.

The rotation lineup shouldering the responsibility of chasing points not only failed to narrow the point difference on the field and let the main players rest at ease off the field, but was suppressed by the opponent, which further widened the point difference between the two sides.

Popovich, who has been standing on the sidelines, immediately called a timeout after the point difference between the two sides reached 10 points, and sent the main lineup, ready to use the main lineup instead of the rotation lineup to chase points.

While Popovich sent the main lineup, Reggie Toyce also adjusted the lineup on the field, replacing Benno Udry with Tony Allen, Reggie Toyce's intention It is very obvious that as long as Tony Parker plays, Tony Allen will play. Using Tony Allen to pinch Tony Parker is the most critical and important arrangement for Reggie Troyes in this game.

Since Tony Parker has not improved much under the restrictions of Tony Allen, Popovich, who had expected the king to make targeted substitutions during this substitution, put Manu- Ginobili was left on the court, ready to switch to a tactic centered on Manu Ginobili and Tim Duncan after the timeout.

Look at Parker in good times, Duncan in adversity, and Manu in desperation. This is already a widely circulated saying. Tony Parker has always had the disadvantage of not being good at fighting against the wind. Therefore, although the core of the Spurs' current tactics is Tony Parker, but once When the game enters adversity, Popovich will shift the core of his tactics to Tim Duncan or Manu Ginobili.

Taking advantage of Yan Hua's off-court rest, Popovich decisively instructed Tony Parker, who was holding the ball forward, and Manu Ginobili, who was about to take over the offense, to give the ball to Tim Duncan , by Tim Duncan to sound the clarion call for the Spurs' counterattack.

"Fuck, is this guy really a 34-year-old guy?" Spencer Hawes, who was easily pushed over by Tim Duncan after Tim Duncan caught the ball , After Tim Duncan made a shot, he cursed directly.

In the first quarter of the game, Spencer Hawes, who had been sitting on the sidelines, watched the scene of Yan Hua and Tim Duncan confrontation, and also had a feeling that Tim Duncan was really old. Switching to Tim Duncan a few years ago, he would never be at a disadvantage on both ends of the offense and defense, but when Spencer Hawes faced Tim Duncan, Spencer Hawes Only then did I realize that even Tim Duncan, who has become an old man, is not something he can deal with.

After Tim Duncan successfully beat Spencer Hawes twice in a row, Reggie Toyes took advantage of the dead ball and replaced Yan Hua again. In front of Sai, the old Tim Duncan was still able to get what he asked for. If Yan Hua hadn't appeared on the stage, Tim Duncan would have been grabbing Spencer Hawes and beating him fiercely.

"Yan, avenge me, kick that old guy's ass well." Spencer Hawes, who was replaced by Yan Hua, did not forget to ask Yan Hua to avenge himself when he high-fived Yan Hua.

After nodding towards Spencer Hawes, Yan Hua reappeared. Although in the first quarter, Yan Hua was able to overwhelm Tim Duncan on both offense and defense, but when Tim Duncan After starting to work hard, Yan Hua didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. Although his physical condition was not as good as before, Tim Duncan's various skills had reached the pinnacle. This kind of old-timer guy , is the most difficult to deal with.

After Yan Hua returned to the field, the Spurs' defensive strategy also changed. Taking advantage of Serge Ibaka's presence, the Spurs began to double-team Yan Hua again, but this time, they received Serge Ibaka, who passed the ball from Yanhua, made a steady mid-range shot, which did not let the embarrassing scene in the first quarter reappear.

In the transition between offense and defense, Yan Hua followed Tim Duncan directly. Yan Hua had a premonition that the Spurs would still hand over the offense to Tim Duncan, because at this critical moment, ace vs. ace, Only then can the morale of one's own side be improved and the arrogance of the opponent be hit.

Consistent with Yan Hua's premonition, Tim Duncan, who returned to the offensive end, hadn't reached the deep position yet, but Tim Duncan, who had just leaned against Yan Hua, began to reach out to his teammates for the ball. This time, Tim Duncan didn't attack face-to-face, but was ready to attack Yan Hua with his back.

After taking a few deep breaths while slapping the basketball, Tim Duncan began to mobilize all the strength in his body, preparing to show his best condition and full strength to complete this time without reservation attack.

After slapping the basketball and hitting it hard behind him, Tim Duncan quickly turned around, preparing to forcefully break through to the left side of his body. After being blocked by Yan Hua, Tim Duncan held up the basketball, Made three fake shots in a row.

Although the fake moves on the feet are not as good as Yan Hua, but there are many fake moves on Duncan's hands and shoulders, and each of them is too realistic. Therefore, after Tim Duncan's fake moves of three shots in a row, Yan Hua It's no different than surrendering.

After finishing a set of feints, Tim Duncan leaned sideways on Yan Hua, jumped up lightly, and threw the basketball in his hand to the basket.

"TD, TD, TD..." After Tim Duncan scored in Yan Hua's post-up single, cheers broke out in the AT&T Arena, and nearly [-] spectators shouted in unison Bearing the name of Tim Duncan.

"Your uncle is still your uncle." Tim Duncan, who hit the hook, raised his eyebrows at Yan Hua next to him after finishing scoring. The meaning of provocation is self-evident.

　Thank you for the reward I want to wake up the world, thank you.
