NBA: Fusion of two talents to dominate the entire league

"Let me try your recovery."

Ginobili, who had an idea in mind, dribbled the basketball and gestured to Horry.

He stared at Kidd with his eyes straight, and his intention was obvious.

Coach Frank, who was supervising the game on the sidelines, felt a little nervous. This Ginobili!

He immediately picked out the Nets' weak spot.

Frank's heart was immediately hanging. He had no confidence in Kidd's condition, not to mention that he was injured.

Veteran Horry quickly understood Ginobili's intention and quickly came to the three-point line.

The two quickly completed the pick-and-roll. Horry's physique successfully blocked Carter's defense.

Ginobili dribbled the ball and the two sides quickly separated.

Although Kidd tried to buy time for Carter by delaying, Ginobili twisted strangely and avoided Kidd's interference.

He dribbled the ball not far away, as if he could shoot at any time.

Such a switch was completely a passive switch,

Coach Popovich was also eager to know how much power Kidd had left,

After all, hidden dangers are the most terrifying, and only by eliminating hidden dangers as soon as possible can we take the initiative in the next game.

Kidd saw that he could not escape, so he made up his mind and opened his arms to prepare for Ginobili's breakthrough.

At the edge of the court, Frank shouted to the players anxiously, asking them to share the defensive pressure for Kidd at any time,

In this way, Ginobili was more convinced that Kidd's injury was not only not healed, but also reluctant to play.

Frank's anxiety made Kidd's situation worse, but his unintentional actions exposed all his cards.

Popovich looked at the other coach jumping on the edge of the court and confirmed his previous guess.

He made a gesture to Ginobili, and the next attack should be carried out around Kidd.

Roy frowned as he watched all this. Coach Frank was a good guy, but he really didn't have much scheming.

Such a move was to expose Kidd to the Spurs.

Now Kidd could only deal with it on his own. If it didn't work out, Roy would quietly prepare himself to go it alone.

Ginobili signaled his teammates to give him space to play one-on-one.

He dribbled the ball slowly and took a few steps back, followed by a quick raid.

Kidd and him came into contact near the three-point line.

In terms of strength alone, Kidd was not at a disadvantage, and even had a small advantage.

He firmly withstood Ginobili's impact near the three-point line.

The advantage of having been blocked is that the ankle is not so painful during confrontation, and the use of strength is more casual.

Otherwise, every step would be excruciatingly painful, and even an iron man couldn't stand that kind of pain.

In fact, Popovich should arrange Parker to play one-on-one, which would be the real torture for the team and Kidd's ankle.

Ginobili was surprised at Kidd's ability to fight. He thought the team that was about to collapse could actually keep up with his pace. It seemed that he could only use his unique skills. While dribbling, he made some small movements with his hands, which were difficult to be detected by the referee. As a player who gets older and more powerful, Kidd was not afraid of Ginobili's small movements. These small tricks not only did not cause trouble to Kidd, but in the process of his own dribbling breakthrough, Kidd touched the basketball in his hand because of his lack of concentration, and he was almost intercepted by Kidd. As a result, Ginobili even began to doubt whether he was wrong. Kidd was just a trick of the Nets. His body had long recovered, otherwise how could he be in such a good defensive state. Everyone on the court was shocked. The offensive round that was thought to be doomed to collapse and unilateral slaughter turned into a tug-of-war. Kidd, who was considered incompetent, even took the initiative. Even Coach Frank was wondering if he was wrong. Was Kidd hiding something from him? If he had known Kidd's condition was like this,

he would have let Kidd start in the first quarter and would not have had to wait until now.

But in fact, only people know whether they are doing well or not. Kidd almost gritted his teeth and persisted throughout the whole process.

The ankle began to swell again, but fortunately, it was not a big deal for the time being.

Since Ginobili's impact was relieved by Kidd at the first time, the two of them were simply fighting with strength and physical confrontation later.

Moving slowly, Kidd could barely cope with this situation.

But Ginobili is also a strong person. If he can't break through from the front, he will rush to the side.

Finally, when he was close to the baseline, he found a chance to shoot with a larger pace.

After the emergency stop, Kidd finally stepped back and shot.Due to the inconvenience of the ankle, he could only make simple interference.

"Ding"

Perhaps the previous confrontation between the two was too intense. Ginobili failed to control the strength when he leaned back.

At the moment of shooting the basketball, the strength of his fingers was too great.

The ball hit the basket and was stuck by Roy, who took the rebound with both hands.

Due to the Spurs' retreat speed, the Nets had no chance of fast break.

Roy got the rebound and dribbled the basketball through the half court by himself.

"Well done, Jason!"

"Captain, you are my idol!"

The heartless McGinnis and Lagabel excitedly congratulated Kidd.

They didn't see Kidd's embarrassment and sweat just now.

In fact, the last defensive action shows that Kidd was already at the end of his strength at that time.

They were unable to jump up and effectively interfere with Ginobili's shot.

Kidd pretended to be calm and responded to his teammates with a smile.

He could handle a few rounds of defense like the one just now, but if there were more, he had no idea what would happen.

Following Roy into the Spurs' half,

Roy saw that Kidd needed time to catch his breath, so he took the ball and planned to attack on the three-point line.

For Roy, the Spurs' defense was very thorough.

Duncan immediately stuck to him, not giving Roy the space to shoot and break through.

Carter received his pass under Roy's instructions.

The moment the ball was given to Carter, he cut to the waist of the Spurs.

Before reaching the waist, Carter would pass the ball tacitly, and the ball led Roy to move.

The dynamic pass caused great psychological pressure on the Spurs.

The bottom corner Ginobili retreated to help Duncan and block Roy's breakthrough route.

Unexpectedly, Roy not only did not slow down, but accelerated towards Ginobili while dribbling the basketball.

Behind Ginobili, McGinnis was instructed by Roy to cut to the basket from the baseline when two people double-teamed Roy.

Roy found a way to pass the ball in the gap between the two.

A highly concealed ground pass was given to McGinnis who was running.

McGinnis took it, took a big step, jumped high under the basket, dodged Horry's block in the air, and made a small jump shot!

73 to 87

The Nets' chasing state seemed to be slowly coming back.
