Chapter 746: The Restricted Duncan

In the second quarter, the game became a one-man show for Lin Tianhui. After the pick-and-roll, he faced the Admiral with constant dribbling and then pretended to break through, but it was a step-back 3-pointer.

Next, facing Admiral Lin Tianhui, he turned his back and got a tie at the basket. Then he singled out Admiral again, and opened Robinson from the mid-range to complete the mid-range shot. Lin Tianhui scored consecutively after Duncan went off the court. , directly to the Spurs to stop.

Lin Tianhui walked off the court with his head held high and his chest high, whistling, and then he threw his hands at Popovich, wanting to say that's all? Brother hasn't contributed yet, so it's over, it's too simple.

Where does Popovich have the time to deal with Lin Tianhui now, he is now scolding the players, but he doesn't say Admiral, after all, what's wrong with Admiral 897? He just can't keep up with Lin Tianhui, mainly because The others were too useless, and should not have given Lin Tianhui a chance to name him.

"What kind of shit are you playing?" The current situation is not good for the Spurs, mainly because Duncan is troubled by fouls. Popovich is also reflecting on this point. He didn't need to worry about it at all, and he wouldn't be tricked into fouling by others, so the problem of foul trouble would never appear to Duncan, but he didn't expect that Duncan would be facing Lin Tianhui in this game.

Lin Tianhui is a player whose performance is seriously inconsistent with his age. Lin Tianhui has maturity that is different from his age. Lin Tianhui can see the tactical core of the Spurs at a glance. At this time, it is definitely the most correct thing to down Duncan, although It was a hostile relationship, but Popovich couldn't help but praise him.

Popovich's pawns are not easy to mobilize now. He can only rely on the admiral to open up the situation on the offensive end. The other is to let Chapman run out of position to shoot. After the timeout is over, the Spurs can find a way to attack. In a sense, the Admiral scored with a hook on the inside, and Chapman scored on the outside after receiving the ball, but even Popovich didn't notice that the Spurs' rhythm was being taken away by the Suns little by little.

The Spurs' offense is also very fast now. Although they have scored points (abeb), the defense is still unable to guard against Lin Tianhui. The Suns scored 36 points in a single quarter, and 22 of the 36 points were scored by Lin Tianhui. The Spurs only scored 17 points, and Lin Tianhui alone scored more points than the entire Spurs team.

At halftime, the Suns led by 22 points 64-42.

The rhythm on the court began to be taken away more and more by the Suns. The Spurs adopted a double-team tactic and did not give Lin Tianhui a chance to name the admiral, but as a result, a large number of vacancies appeared outside, and there were many vacant shots. Now, the rhythm naturally becomes faster.

It was really beyond Popovich's expectations that the half-time match was played like this. He kept talking to Duncan about foul control during the halftime break, so that Duncan must not be tricked into fouling by Lin Tianhui in the third quarter. .

When the game started in the third quarter, Ainge still insisted on letting Barkley play. At this time, he wanted to play inside and knock Duncan down. Duncan's performance in the third quarter was a little timid, mainly because he was afraid. He fouled again, and he knew that only he was a threat to the Spurs on the court, but he couldn't let go of the offensive end and the defensive end.
