NBA: Sharks cry, can't stand this center

In the first 5 minutes of the first quarter, Wei Guo never received the ball when attacking, and did not make much progress on defense.

That puts the Spurs at ease a bit...

After the first timeout ended, Wei Guo began to take over the game.

The offensive end scored '2+1', and the defensive end gave Parker a cap.

Spurs throw-in...

Bowen missed a catch and shot, and Wei Guo grabbed a defensive rebound.

Popovich slandered, "Garbage...you can only play against weak teams, and when you meet strong teams, you rely on defending the country."

In the game against the Mavericks, except for the third game, Wei Guo's performance was mediocre. Popovich watched the video of those four games specifically, trying to find out the tactics of the Mavericks against Wei Guo, or the Suns. He also discovered the weakness... In those few games, most of the Suns players played very well.

Now let's see...

It's just that the Lone Ranger team is not strong enough. When encountering a really strong team, it depends on Wei Guo alone.

Maybe most of the head coaches in the league are not satisfied with Gentry. This guy follows Wei Guobai to pick the three best coaches, but they have no choice. . In the last three seasons, the three teams coached by Gentry have the best records in the league.

If this continues, in a few more seasons, Gentry may become the league's number one head coach.

......

On the field, the Suns are attacking.

Nash dribbled the ball all the way to the three-second zone, and the basketball disappeared with a turn.

"Boom!!!"

Wei Guo received the ball and dunked with both hands to score!

12:10! ! !

Nash passed the ball elusively, and completed a wonderful cooperation with Wei Guo.

So far in the game, the Suns have only scored three sports games, all through dunks, and the other four points came from free throws. This shows that the Spurs have done a good job of defending and interfered with the Suns' shooting. Haven't shot yet, just look at Wei Guo's shooting heat map. He is the only player in the league who has a shooting percentage of more than 50% in any area.

The Spurs continued to defend the country. Both Duncan and Bowen were selected to the best defensive team this season. Coupled with Popovich's system, this is the biggest challenge for the Suns in the playoffs.

......

Barkley and Johnson commented on the game.

Johnson, "Trust Bowen and Duncan, Wei Guo is too difficult to catch the ball."

Barkley, "It doesn't affect Wei Guo's average of [-] points per game against the Spurs..."

Johnson, "The intensity of the playoffs is different from the intensity of the regular season. With Muhammad fighting for rebounds, Duncan can go outside to interfere with the defending country."

Barkley, "For a player like Wei Guo, confrontation can inspire his fighting spirit."

......

The first quarter is over.

30:26! ! !

The Suns trailed by 4 points.

Weiguo had already predicted the Spurs' defensive tactics before the game. Because of this, Gentry reminded the players to make bold shots, and don't just think about going to Weiguo when they get the ball.

Rather...

The Spurs' defense is very good. Although they are targeting Weiguo, they rarely give other players open shots.

The offensive and defensive transition was quick, and Johnson and Marion couldn't find the touch. The first quarter's score basically came from Nash and Wei Guo, who couldn't hit the basket to score, and Stoudemire's offensive ability was also greatly reduced.

"Duncan did not perform well in the first quarter. This is due to Brother Wei, but there are a few omissions that should not be... Especially Ginobili, you must always pay attention to him!"

"We lost by 4 points in the matchup..."

Cummings muttered, "Which link went wrong?"

"Snapped!"

Wei Guo slapped Cummings on the back of the head.

Cummings raised his head sharply and said aggrievedly, "Brother Wei, why did you hit me?"

"what?!"

Wei Guo pretended to be innocent, "I wanted to pat your head, why did I suddenly slap you, which link has a problem?"

Cummings, "???"

This little episode let the tense atmosphere relax.

Falling behind in the first quarter...

This is something that everyone does not want to see, but being behind in the first quarter does not mean that you will lose the game.

At this time, the momentum is very important. You must have the fighting spirit to win, but you should not be too nervous, especially for players who are not good at opponents. The more nervous they are, the more it will affect their performance.

Spurs bench.

Popovich is also reminding players not to be careless, to hold on to their advantage, and not to give the Suns a chance to overtake.

Counting from the 76ers...

Popovich has led the team to fight against Wei Guo 5 times. He has a record of 13 wins and [-] losses, which can also be said to be a disastrous defeat.

This means that Popovich is too conceited to accept this matter.

There are still many teams in the league who have never defeated a team with Weiguo, but they are very calm.

even...

On weekdays, the arena is full of seats, and the tickets for games with Wei Guo will be sold out one month in advance.

......

Wei Guo has already figured out a rule. With the intensity of the playoffs, his playing time is controlled at about 45 minutes, and he can maintain his best condition throughout the game.

The Suns lineup looks stronger than the Nets did last season.

actually not...

Except for Wei Guo and Hill after the serious injury, the Nets only have veterans Mourning and Stockton. They can be regarded as a civilian team, but this team has both offense and defense. With a player like Jefferson, Kidders and Collins are also good.

As for defense...

Hill is also a player with both offense and defense, the tough guy Mourning has a body, and the veteran Stockton has experience.

A team like this is a champion.

On the other hand, the Suns...

The gorgeous offense is pleasing to the eye, and the bombardment style has set off a whirlwind of small balls in the league, but it also has obvious shortcomings, that is, defense. This is what the Spurs dare to say. If there is no Weiguo, they can sweep the Suns s reason.

In this team, once his teammates can't attack, Wei Guo has to take on the offense and defense alone, which consumes a lot of energy.

......

After a short break, the second quarter begins.

Wei Guo sat on the sidelines to rest...

The Spurs' bench lineup is not weaker than that of the Suns. Barry, Horry, and Nestorovich are all very good players, and all three of them also came off the bench.

First the Spurs attack.

Barry, a white player, made a decisive three-pointer after receiving a pass from his teammate.

"Shh!!!"

Basketball hit the net.

Then...

Horry put down Richardson's offense, Parker grabbed the basketball, and the fast break gave the ball to Barry. Barry made a more decisive three-pointer.

"Shh!!!"

The basketball hit the net again.

36:26! ! !

In less than 1 minute, the Spurs extended their lead to 10 points.
