Chapter 300: Overtaking

In the NBA, uncertainty is the most exciting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the second half between the Spurs and the Warriors, the Warriors fought to catch up, and the viewership of the scorching game scene increased dramatically, and a large part of it came from China.

The Rockets beat the Mavericks away in the first game, and Chinese fans thought that the Warriors would also beat the Spurs away, and the best situation was the Western Conference finals, where the Rockets beat the Warriors, and then one of them entered the Finals and lifted the championship trophy.

Of course, it's just a matter of thinking about it, the Rockets and the Warriors are both on the gram.

If you want to beat Spurs, you have to score some difficult goals, and even deliberately look for opportunities like two-plus-one to break their morale.

It is not unheard of in history to beat the master to death.

"Simplifying tactics." Montgomery also figured it out, and after the second half, let Davis and Richardson misplace the Spurs No. 1 position.

Now it seems that the only way to start is with Parker.

On the Spurs' side, Popovich also arranged the tactics of outside breakout, Parker and Ginobili took turns to play with Duncan, and the breakthrough ball flew up.

At 7:51 in the third quarter, the Warriors trailed by six points at 61-67, and the two sides played offensive basketball.

Yang Di had 16 points and seven rebounds, while Duncan also scored 16 points but grabbed more 10 rebounds.

After the forced timeout in the middle of the quarter, Yang Di felt that it would not work like this.

He dropped back into the low post and once again asked for the ball to single Duncan.

"Come!"

Duncan's eyes widened, his long arms raised high.

Yang Di's bear-like strong body leaned back and hit Duncan's rocky chest, Duncan was also in pain, and was knocked backwards, his heels slightly raised.

When he landed, Duncan exhaled like a breath, and Yang Di's back collided again, which also couldn't shake him.

Yang Di turned around, pulled the ball out and retreated a little, after dribbling the ball under the crotch, he moved the ball to the left with his left hand, and with a wrong step, he crossed with Duncan.

Duncan stood still and turned around, his arm always hanging over Yang Di's shot.

This is a standard defensive posture, Yang Di can't hit Duncan, so he can only take the risk of continuing to move his feet, striding to the left, and only then does he get a slight space to shoot.

Yang Di twisted his waist and drifted to throw the ball, but the ball did not score.

Duncan came back and grabbed his 11th rebound.

"It's not easy to fight!"

Yang Di shook his head, Duncan's defense was too good, and he basically didn't shake it, except for the first time he shook off Duncan, he didn't have a chance to throw this guy off later, and once he shot after being interfered with, the technical movements were greatly interfered with, and it was difficult to score the ball.

Duncan's defensive ability, whether it is a single defense or a help defense, is at least in the top five in the league, or even the top ten in history.

At the power forward position, counting offensive performances and personal achievements and accolades, the less than 30-year-old has almost locked up a place in the future Hall of Fame.

"That's how consistent Tim Duncan is."

Seeing Yang Di eating karma, the local media in San Antonio were very happy, and claimed with a smile that he was still too immature: "After all, Yang Di is facing a top five power forward in history, and it is already very unexpected to play like this." ”

But just after his words fell, the warrior suddenly set off a wave of attack Xiao Gao-chao.

First, Byron Davis broke Parker in the athletic battle and completed a low-handed layup before Duncan's defense arrived.

Then back to the defense, Yang Di blocked Duncan's basket and hit it strongly.

Yang Di grabbed the rebound and advanced, giving it to Richardson in the middle line to dominate the ball, and Richardson distributed the ball to Dunleavy on the wing.

In the flank coordination, Dunleavy dribbled up the line and played a hand-to-hand pass to cover with Richardson.

Richardson dribbled to the baseline and hit a pull-up jump shot, making it 4-0 in an instant, and the Warriors were two points away from the score.

In the case of a small difference in points, this kind of chasing points can best make a young team like the Warriors get up, Yang Di, Richardson and others roared, clenched their fists, and sparks were everywhere.

......

The Warriors made it to the playoffs, and no pundit dared to predict that until the regular season began.

At that time, the Golden State Warriors were not favored teams, they lost 13+12 "No. 1 center in the West" in the team, and the only reinforcement of the team was the signing of Derrick Fisher, a participant in the disintegrated Lakers dynasty.

Some experts say that the Warriors may only win 20 games in a season.

In the end, however, the Warriors won 49 games, entered the playoffs as seventh in the West, and played in San Antonio.

Yang Di averaged 16+15+2.4 per game in one season, not only filling the vacancy on the inside, but also obviously better than Dampier.

Even so, there are very few who are optimistic about the Warriors beating the Spurs, and only the fans of the Golden State Warriors themselves may remain.

In the eyes of neutral fans, the Warriors are still too young.

But the truth is, Spurs are in some trouble.

The Spurs' offense had some problems, and it started midway through the third quarter with a sudden mute.

Ginobili and Parker's breakthroughs were still very sharp, but when they hit the Warriors' basket, they were either fanned by Yang Di, or they lacked a little grasp of the layup, and missed several good opportunities to score on offense.

In the NBA, such a performance is deadly.

Even the Spurs, who are very steady, will feel that the game has changed its flavor and become particularly difficult.

"Bell!"

After returning from a timeout, the Spurs missed their eighth offense, and it was still none.

Yang Di jumped high, sweat on his arms, grabbed the rebound along the light, and stood firmly in place, his 9th rebound.

Spurs fans let out a sigh in unison, somewhat regretful that the ball still missed.

The Warriors didn't shoot high either, but they were able to score intermittently.

After halftime, Davis excitedly turned his back and singled Parker.

Then he suddenly stepped out, put his hands together, stepped up to look at the frame, and pretended to shoot.

Parker was shaken slightly.

It turned out to be a Buddha-worshipping move, and the thick black-bearded Byron Davis broke through like a strong bandit and rushed into the Spurs' interior line.

handed over a pass, and Yang Di followed.

"Smack!"

Yang Di staggered Duncan's defense, relying on this pass from his teammate, and flew up on Muhammad's head, and a black shadow rose in front of Muhammad, like a flying beast.

"Bang dang!"

The Warriors outscored 69-67.

Although Muhammad is known as a blue-collar worker, but after all, his physical fitness is average, and it is difficult for him to defend one-on-one in the league, and the Spurs' strong interior defense is still due to Duncan's huge deterrent.

At this time, the score was overtaken, and the mentality of the Spurs changed up and down.

Even Popovich felt that things were tricky.
