Chapter 590 Finals G2
The Air Canada Center, home of the Raptors, has become a sea of ​​joy.The home team won the first victory of the finals, rewriting the big score to 1:0.This is the first finals victory in the history of this team that was established in 95, and they are still 3 victories away from winning the first championship in team history.

Raptors star Ying Xiong scored a triple-double with 38 points, 32 rebounds and 11 assists in 10 minutes.In this game, he did not score 40+ or ​​even 50+ points, but when the opponent was chasing points, he used an unsolvable attack to disrupt the opponent's momentum of chasing points. It can be said that he was the biggest contributor to the team's victory.

In this game, Jeremy Lin, DeRozan and Gay scored a total of 3 points, severely hitting the opponent and sharing a lot of pressure for Ying Xiong.

At the press conference after the game, when the reporter asked Ying Xiong what he thought of the game.Ying Xiong said that the outcome of a game does not mean anything. The series is long. The Spurs are a very strong team and must go all out.

The second game of the series between the two teams will continue on June 2 at the Air Canada Center, home of the Raptors.

In Yingxiong's villa, everyone sat and ate together.Song Bingning was very excited, and had been chatting with Sun Jing about the process of the first match of the finals.This is her first time to watch an NBA game live, and she watched the finals as soon as she came. The shock to her was beyond imagination.

"I said Ying Xiong, your performance today is too ordinary, of course compared with your previous performance." Song Bingning said.

"My teammates played well today, so I will attack less." Ying Xiong said with a smile.

"Does Jeremy Lin have a girlfriend?" Song Bingning suddenly asked this question.

Ying Xiong was a little dazed for a moment, he didn't expect Song Bingning, who seemed a bit introverted in high school, to become so lively and speak so directly at the scene.It seems that when a person enters a university and enters the society, he will really change.

"Why are you asking this? Do you like him?" Li Jianwu looked at Song Bingning with deep meaning and said with a smile.

"Don't worry about it, I'll just gossip about it, what's wrong?" Song Bingning said confidently, not afraid of Li Jianwu at all.

"A woman's heart, a needle in the sea, so duplicity, if I were Brother Hao, I would definitely not like your type!" Li Jianwu spoke softly, but everyone present could hear him clearly.

"Li-jian-wu-you-say-again?" Song Bingning's eyes were like knives, and his anger index continued to rise, and it seemed that there was a tendency to explode.

Li Jianwu saw that something was wrong, so he quickly sent a piece of cheesecake over with a fork, "Here, eat the cake!"

Song Bingning remained unmoved, and continued to look directly at Li Jianwu with cold eyes.

Seeing these young people making noise, Shao Ziqiang felt particularly good.He likes to be lively, so he has always been happy to socialize with these students.

Ying Xiong used to live in such a big villa by himself, and usually felt empty at home when there was no game. Now seeing so many familiar people gathered together, he felt quite comfortable.For him, in a foreign country, even if it is his own house, he does not have much sense of belonging after all.

On June 6, the Raptors continued to sit at home and compete with the Western Conference champion Spurs in Game 10 of the Finals.

In this game, the starting lineup of the Raptors at home has not changed, it is still the lineup of the previous game; the Spurs in the away game have not changed due to the loss of the last game.

Popovich is old and cunning, and the Raptors know that even if he does not change the lineup, the game will still change, and what they can do is to temporarily respond to changes with the same.

In the last game, the Spurs were killed by the Raptors with a mid-range shot, which exposed the weakness of their defensive system.In this game, whether coach Popovich can adjust it is a highlight of this game.

As soon as the first quarter of the game came up, the Spurs really changed on the defensive end. They let the outside defensive players reduce their defense expansion. .Duncan and Splitter on the inside pay attention to controlling the basket, and also take into account the opponent's jumper near the frame.

This defensive change for the Spurs means changing from controlling the basket and 3 points to controlling the basket and mid-range and putting 3 points.Since the Raptors' starting 3 outsiders except Yingxiong, Jeremy Lin and DeRozan's 3-pointers are not stable, this defensive method also has opportunities for error tolerance.Of course, for Xiong, they are not as thorough as they are with DeRozan and others.

On the offensive end, the Spurs' change in this game is to increase the frequency and number of inside cuts, allowing Parker and Leonard to cut inside more, killing the Raptors' weak defense inside.And Duncan and Splitter also played more inside and reduced outside jumpers.

The Spurs' offensive and defensive changes worked well early in the game.The Raptors' offensive efficiency became low because DeRozan and others were missed by airdrops.In addition, the success rate of breakthrough and mid-range offense has also dropped a lot compared with the previous game.

On the defensive end, the Raptors stormed the inside line against the opponent, and some of them did not respond well enough, and were beaten by opponents at the basket many times.

Therefore, in the first half of the first quarter, the Raptors were caught off guard by their opponents and soon faced a situation of falling behind.

The Raptors' timeout couldn't solve this problem, and the scene was completely controlled by the Spurs.The fans at the scene saw that the home team was beaten as soon as they came up, and they were very anxious. They wondered how the home team, which had beaten the opponent so easily three days ago, would be so passive in this game.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ying Xiong immediately stepped up his personal attack.Relying on his personal ability, he finally bit the score and fell behind his opponent by double digits without the first quarter.

The game has entered the rotation stage, and the Spurs' strategy remains unchanged.But Lowry of the Raptors broke out at this time.When the opponent put him for 3 points, he hit 2 consecutive 3 points, narrowed the point difference to only 3 points, and stopped the opponent!
As a result, at the end of the first quarter, the Raptors trailed their opponents by 2 points.

As soon as the second quarter came up, the Spurs strengthened their defense against Lowry, and the latter's outside touch was quickly suppressed.

Ying Xiong only rested for more than 2 minutes, and went into battle again. He scored points through personal breakthroughs, layups or fouls many times.Driven by him, the emotions of the Raptors players stabilized. Gay and Bargnani hit consecutive 3-pointers and successfully achieved the overtake of the score.

On the defensive end, the Raptors shrunk, emptied Diaw and Joseph of the Spurs, and then the opponent counterattacked without rebounding.

Even as cunning as Popovich, he is helpless in the face of this situation.It is a very hurtful thing for the team when a player fails to make a shot in the face of an open spot.
