At the end of the first quarter, the score was 27:21, and the Clippers led the Spurs by six points in the first quarter, and the Los Angeles people got off to a good start.

For the Clippers, Ji Guoqiu got 4 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, Ji Guoqiu got 12 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, Artest 5 points, Posey 3 points, and Black Parker 2 points.

For the Spurs, Duncan had 4 points, 3 rebounds and 1 block, Parker had 6 points and 3 assists, Finley had 5 points, Oberto had 2 points and 2 rebounds, and Ginobili had 4 points.

In the first quarter, the Spurs' outside shooting collectively couldn't find a crosshair, but their breakthrough still posed a threat to the Clippers, and Parker and Ginobili's very different approaches to breaking through often caught the Clippers' defense off guard.

The Spurs' breakthrough ability of both guards is one of the best in the league. Parker has always been able to maneuver through the crowd with his masterful ball handling and then shoot at an unexpected moment when it looks like there's no space to be trapped. And the other Ginobili, his "serpentine breakthrough" is even more prestigious, making people unguardable, and the Argentine is really like a demon knife, using his bizarre breakthrough route to cut through the Clippers' seemingly solid defensive net.

The Clippers restrained Duncan in the first quarter, but their highly-hoped hybrid defense didn't deal a devastating blow to the Spurs like the Raptors, and if it weren't for the Spurs' back-to-back bodies and poor outside touch, they might not have been able to take the lead.

In the second quarter, the two teams played a bench battle, and the Spurs' bench lineup still looked overaged. Vaughn, 30-year-old Manu. Ginobili, 37-year-old Bruce Bowen, 38-year-old Robert. Horry, 32-year-old Francisco. Elson.

The Spurs' lineup is very contemptuous for Clippers fans. None of these five guys are under 30 years old, and the average age is 34 years old, which can be called an army of old men!

Jeff. Van Gundy shook his head: "The Spurs last game. We also did a live broadcast, their replacements have been used for many years, and it's time for a blood exchange. ”

Magic Johnson gloated again: "Last season, San Antonio won the fourth championship in their history, which is a good thing for them, today we will only analyze the negative effects, I think last season's championship will exacerbate the decline of the veteran players in their team." There are 30 team managers in the league. They all know that it is best not to have more than 2 veterans over 35 years old in the team, and try not to exceed half of the players over 30 years old. Once the team is too old. It will make the team become dull and lose the overall aggressiveness. ”

Reggie. Miller added: "Young people have energy and drive, and these are things that require veteran players to guide them on the right path. But once there are too many old players, you know. A player after having won enough accolades. Basketball was no longer all he had. Paranoid people like Kobe Bryant who never have too much honor are just a few, and how much focus will most players put into basketball in the seasons before they retire and after getting that pension contract? ”

Clippers bench lineup: Black Parker, Mobley, Garcia, Thomas, Davis.

This lineup is clearly more reasonable than the Spurs' bench structure, the oldest Mobley is 32 years old, and Tim Murphy. Thomas is 31 years old, and the two are in good enough form, while the other three are all under the age of 30. But he's not a rookie, and he's not bad in terms of experience or athleticism.

The Spurs relied on Ginobili's strong point to drive the bench lineup. Today, the Argentines had a mediocre outside touch, and the Clippers chose to shrink the defense to deal with Ginobili's breakaway, which had a good effect.

Robert. Horry also missed two outside three-pointers in the second echelon. The Spurs, Mr. Playoffs, have shot percentage in the whole career that can be described as iron, and he is an out-and-out rotation player in the regular season, and there is no sign of Mr. Key, and Horry's transformation skills are only effective in the playoffs.

At 9 minutes and 10 seconds in the second quarter, the elder Dunleavy took the lead in replacing the twin brothers, and this rotation was about 2 minutes earlier than normal, in order to force the Spurs to change the main force early and fight with them, and then exhaust these old guys.

The score is 33:27, and the difference between the two teams is unchanged.

The Argentine Demon Knife scored six points for the team in the bench period by relying on an unguarded breakthrough, and single-handedly withstood the Clippers' offense.

Vicky didn't bring Duncan on early, he replaced Ginobili, who played ten minutes, and replaced Tony. Parker, Spurs' on-court lineup became: Tony. Parker, Bruce. Bowen, Michael. Finley, Matt. Bonner, Oberto.

The NBA's most rotating coach is none other than the Spurs' Vicky.

If Duncan doesn't play, Ji Guoqiu doesn't need to be separated from the team's defensive system, and the Clippers have completely become a five-man joint defense.

Vicky watched off the court for a while and realized that the Clippers' joint defense was still not a real joint defense, or that damn mixed defense.

The Clippers' defense will be targeted according to the characteristics of the opposing team, such as against the Spurs' current lineup, and the defensive center is obviously in Tony. Parker's outside three-point defense has also been properly strengthened, while the interior defense has become very empty. If Ginobili were on the field, this defensive set-up would inevitably be broken by the Argentine with his breakaway.

The problem is that Ginobili is not on the court now, and there is no Duncan who can play hard inside, and the Spurs only have Parker as a guard who can break through. Finley and Bruce. Bowen is no longer a player who can break through.

After the two brothers came on the court, they began to show their might on the offensive end, and Ji Guoyi faced Matt. Bonner, before this season, all the interior players who have partnered with Duncan have a bonus in defensive efficiency, except for this Bonner. This guy is the only guy who is next to Duncan and won't be blessed with defensive ability.

Ji Guoyi took the opportunity to show a good hand in front of his future father-in-law, a three-point shot plus a violent dunk after a big three-step frontal breakthrough, and finally this dunk also hit Bonner a two-plus-one, scoring six points in half a minute, and quickly helped the team widen the difference to double digits.

The score is 39:29. The Clippers had stretched the margin to 10 points in less than a minute after the two brothers came on the court.

In the face of the team's cheating performance, especially Bonner's clumsy performance on the field. The angry ** Vic even forgot to call a timeout, and couldn't help but stomp half his foot on the field against Matt. Bonner roared loudly, squirting the latter's face.

"Boss, do you think ** Vicky looks like a black bird?"

"What's the explanation?"

"I remember that the little black bird was larger, heavier, explosive, and had a strong impact and waves. Suitable for attacking concrete buildings. ”

"Are you sick? Does this have anything to do with Povich? ”

"! It doesn't matter, I'm standing a meter away from Bonner and I've been sprayed, it's a range attack. Do you think this old man has a lot of saliva? ”

Vicky can be very stubborn at times, and he himself knows that by replacing Duncan on the court early, he can solve interior defense and offensive problems. Tony. Parker won't be alone either. But the Spurs coach just doesn't change, it's so capricious!

Francisco. Elson and Fabricio. Oberto served as the team's interior combination, so it was not only Ji Guosha who broke out on the field, but also the Panda Hero who took the opportunity to break out on the offensive end.

At 6 minutes and 30 seconds in the second quarter, Vicky replaced Duncan and Ginobili on the court at the same time, and the GDP combination appeared on the court at the same time.

With a score of 45:32, the Spurs are already 13 points behind the Clippers, and this is the consequence of willfulness.

The Clippers lead by 13 points. But they still don't dare to be careless, when the GDP combination is on the field at the same time. The Spurs have three points on the court that can rely on individual ability to pose a threat to the Clippers' mixed defense, and their defense has begun to take care of one or the other, which shows that if it is not for the physical constraints, the Spurs in a safe state will really not be able to beat the current Clippers.

"We let them shoot threes." Ji Guoqiu made arrangements on the field, the old Dunleavy did not call a timeout off the court, he would not give the Spurs a chance to rest, at this time the command of the panda brother on the field played a big role, and the old Dunleavy only occasionally shouted a few words on the sidelines.

Ginobili's three-point shot still did not improve after he returned to the court, not only the Argentine demon knife, but also Michael. Finley, Bruce. Bowen, Robert. Horry, the Spurs' usually very efficient three-point shooters, collectively went silent today.

In the first half of the game, the Spurs could only rely on Tony. Parker and Gino. Billy's breakaway, plus Duncan's low-post offense scored some points, and the other players made limited contributions.

Duncan's low-post offense is actually very unsmooth today, it seems that Ji Guoqiu is defending closely, but in fact, once Duncan gets the basketball in the low post, the pocket formation composed of the other four members of the Clippers will immediately shrink to the low position, and the five of them will swallow the stone Buddha together, even if the outside line is exposed, the Clippers will not hesitate, anyway, the Spurs' outside hand feels a mess today, the more inaccurate they are, the more unscrupulous the Clippers will retreat.

The first half ended with the score at 55:43 and the Clippers going into the second half with a 12-point lead.

Ji Guoqiu stalked Duncan on the defensive end today, and he even took the initiative to pull the opponent, deliberately wrestling with Duncan's arm at every turn, this kind of action he usually doesn't use much. This is what he learned yesterday in Jackie Chan's "Brother and Brother" movie, he not only played games at Lori's house, but also watched the movie together, and it was this movie that gave him the inspiration to deal with Duncan.

In this game, he is Aaron played by Jackie Chan, and Duncan is the golden foot band, he has only been abused by Duncan for a long time, and it is complete nonsense to want to improve to the point where he can be one-on-one with Duncan in such a short time! If he wants to defeat the Stone Buddha, he can only be like the protagonist in the movie, give full play to his stalking skills, and use his better body and body to grind this Hall of Fame superstar to death.

In the first half, Duncan only got 8 points and 5 rebounds under Ji Guo's defensive strategy of hating and losing both, this is the credit of his stubborn fighting, and if he can't beat it, he will die with Duncan!

Among the Clippers players, Ji Guoqiu scored 8 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks in the first half, Ji Guoyi 20 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, Artest 12 points, Mobley 6 points, and Posey 6 points.

For the Spurs, Duncan had 8 points, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks in the first half. Parker had 14 points and 4 assists, Ginobili had 9 points and 3 assists, Oberto had 6 points, and Michael. Finley 6 points. (To be continued......)
