Chapter 782 - Three Battles May Be Fought (Second Update)

"We can still fight them in the last quarter. It's not completely out of the question," Chan said to Jim, watching the game in the third quarter.

"It's just that the chances aren't great," Jim's voice wasn't high, but he could still hear it.

"Yes," Chen sighed softly after saying this. There are currently four teams in the West that have the potential to make it to the Finals. Spurs belong to the old powerhouse. It's not just that they have veteran players in their squad, but also that they have a more mature system when they play.

At 60:51, the score of the second quarter was frozen here. The third quarter ended not long after. 86:79! According to the team doctor, Mozgov will basically have no problem in the next game. He wanted to come and let Chen stop him.

"Just play as hard as you can, don't play with the rhythm of the opponent defensively, don't try to defend a player too deliberately. There is no change in tactics...... "If you look at the final score in the third quarter, I think the Nets played well, but in fact, the Spurs used an all-bench lineup.

In other words, those who watch the game will think that the Spurs' bench lineup is playing well. Fortunately, such a score still gives people some hope.

The lineup that came back in the fourth quarter was Gasol, Duncan, Leonard, Ginobili, Parker. In the final quarter, Popovich got the troika on board. On the Nets' side are Okafor, Allen, Williamson, Jeremy Lin and Russell.

It's nice to be able to play with a team like Spurs and where they are today without going into garbage time. The opponent was more aggressive in the early stage, and some players still took a breath in the third quarter.

Leonard took the pass, Duncan quickly got the basketball and scored at Okafor! 88:79!

Lin dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Okafor got the rebound after his personal breakthrough was unsuccessful. Williamson took his pass and passed it to Russell, who hit a three-pointer right away! 88:82!

Ginobili passed half the court, deceived his teammates with a feint, and went straight straight in to score a layup at Allen! 90:82!

Russell passed the half, Williamson took his pass and slowed down, and the scene began to be a little restless. Leonard came over to prevent his breakthrough, but unexpectedly found that the opponent was going to shoot three points, so kawaii immediately jumped up and found that the opponent stopped in time in the air!

Williamson, who saw that the opponent had already flown over, immediately faced the opponent and threw the ball! The basketball bounces off the hoop and falls into the hoop! The referee awarded Leonard a foul, and Williamson successfully scored 3+1! 90:86!

This is one of the few points in this game that can be relatively cool! Although there were a few quick goals to score in kawaii, none of them were smooth. The matchup between the two of them in this game is very eye-catching for fans!

Leonard, this guy is really hard to guard against once he starts! Popovich began to set up his tasks. Kawaii looked in the direction of the bench in a daze with no expression. Maybe he didn't know what he was thinking at this time.

"Letting the opponent foul can slow down the pace of the game, but you still have to cooperate more. Quickly take the basketball in the game to complete the offense...... "There is no change on the basketball side.

After playing the game, I found that the opponent replaced kawaii!! Such a player is directly replaced! In fact, it's nothing for Popovich, if he doesn't play well, all five people will be replaced, and it's not that he hasn't done it.

Anderson, who had just come on the court after coming back, felt that he couldn't do it in the contest with Williamson, and immediately hit the ground and passed to Gasol, who scored 2 points directly with a small throw! 92:86! After Lin's three-pointer was gone, Ginobili rushed over to get the basket and made a long pass to Parker!

The latter scored 2 points with a quick layup! 94:86! Allen didn't get a layup after getting the pass! Okafor took the rebound and his jumper was directly blocked by Duncan! Williamson picked up the basketball and played against Anderson, and suddenly stepped back and hit a three-point shot!

94:89! The difference was not huge, Ginobili passed the ball to Duncan, who managed to score 2:1 in the battle with Okafor!

......

"Yes, Spurs did put us under a lot of pressure in the first half! It seems to me that they could have pulled the score away again in the third quarter if they wanted to, but they didn't do that......"

After the game, Chen calmly faced the reporters and began to answer their questions. This is largely to be expected.

"That's a good question, but there's something I won't answer you yet. But let me share some of my thoughts. If you meet Spurs in the finals, it shouldn't be easy for the other side."

It was a question that both teams had in mind in today's game. That's what the result would be if it happened that the Nets and Spurs met in the final Finals. Popovich still takes this very seriously. He doesn't think the Cavaliers are too good, and the Celtics aren't too difficult.

However, this Nets is a relatively special team that suddenly appeared only the year before last. Their style of play is not very sure, and Coach Chen is also more changeable in his style of play, and this Cleveland and the Green Shirts have learned it.

120:108! Although he won this game today, Popovich wasn't sure that was all the Nets were all about. Even if this is the first game of the finals, there may be six more games to come. Not to mention that it's just a regular season. In short, this team must be taken seriously.

Gasol had 12 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists in this game! Aldridge 15 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks! Leonard 32 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists! Parker 9 points, 2 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals! Ginobili 10 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists!

In the final quarter of the game on the Spurs' side, kawaii went off the court and scored 32 points! If you've been on the court, maybe it's not that hard to get past 40 points. Everyone's scores are relatively average, kawaii can attack and defend! Still very energetic and efficient!

The Nets' Okafor had 11 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists! Allen 8 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists! Williamson 23 points, 11 rebounds and 4 assists! Jeremy Lin 19 points, 4 rebounds and 12 assists! Burke 16 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists!

On the field, the players in Brooklyn clearly felt that they were overpowered! Whether it is coordination, awareness, or the opponent's defense, etc., it is not as good as the opponent's play.

In such a situation, the Nets can only go head-to-head with each other at some times!

The Bulls won one game and the Spurs lost one. The Nets now have a holiday, and Chen plans to give the players a little more time off. Such teams will emerge again.

"Let's talk about the next team," Chen told them after receiving a call from the assistant coach when he returned to the hotel. The other party also confirmed that there was nothing to do now, and after organizing it, he went out to play~

Chan didn't ask the team to go back right away, and they would have some time to rest when they got back to Brooklyn.
