Chapter 298: Inseparable
"Come on!"
Yang Di's eyes widened angrily, he raised the rungs with one hand, and lowered his waist and lowered his center of gravity. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Bang!"
The 29-year-old stone Buddha has a full impact on his back, surging like the waves of the Pacific Ocean, and Yang Di only feels that the place he touches seems to have a vast force like heaven and earth.
He struggled to retreat slightly, adjusted his footsteps, and lowered his center of gravity a second time.
Duncan hit him again, but Yang Di didn't move, and stuck him dead on the outside of the penalty area.
Duncan was not surprised in his heart, Yang Di's strength has always been the top in the NBA, and his ability to resist people is also outstanding, so it is not unusual to not be able to touch him.
He dribbled the ball a second time, turned around, switched to his right hand to control the ball, stepped out with his right foot to the left, and took the ball with both hands to make a half-hook and half-shot motion.
Yang Di raised his arms and did not jump.
Duncan put his right foot on the ground, using it as an axis, padding his foot, and gently shaking his right wrist, the basketball hit the board into the frame.
"Nice back-to-back movements!"
Several assistant coaches of the Spurs clapped their palms, Duncan's set of back plays was like a flowing cloud, and the hook hand that turned around at the last time was simply incomprehensible, unless Yang Di jumped to defend could really interfere. But if Yang Di really jumped, Duncan would definitely make a feint, and Yang Di would be even more passive at that time.
Yang Di ran to serve the baseline ball, and the Warriors were still 11 points behind 9-20.
Byron Davis dribbled under his hip, dribbled right behind his back to his left hand, and hit Parker sideways.
Parker was knocked away, Davis crushed and broke inside, and Yang Di moved up from the baseline. This time, Davis's breakthrough was too resolute and too deep, and Duncan had to let go of Yang Di to make up for Davis first.
Yang Di stretched out his hands and looked at Davis.
Davis flicked his left hand and split the ball.
Yang Di touched the ground on tiptoe and received the ball and made a direct mid-range jumper.
"Huh!"
Through the heart, the Warriors trailed by nine points 11-20.
Yang Di's mid-range grasp this season is already very high, when no one is defending, the shooting rate is more than 5 percent, in such a high-intensity game in the NBA, it is definitely very qualified, if you don't defend at all, it is equivalent to giving away points.
The Spurs attacked, and Duncan did the pick-and-roll for Parker.
Parker split the ball with Duncan, and Young was stuck with Duncan's figure, and the two of them ran inside, and then Duncan turned around and made a mid-range half-volley jumper.
Yang Di's blocking posture is very standard, and when he jumps, he can almost touch the basketball in Duncan's hand with the tips of his fingers.
"Bell!"
The jumper missed, and Murphy grabbed the rebound.
The Warriors advanced, Richardson singled out Bruce Bowen in the frontcourt, dribbled and forced a shot, but it still didn't.
But at this time, the active Yang Di chased after him, clicked the rebound in the air, and jumped up at the same time as Duncan, and the two of them showed off a bounce for this ball.
Yang Di, who weighed less, obviously had the advantage and grabbed the rebound first.
The Spurs formation was disorganized, Yang Di distributed the ball outside, and Richardson directed to Dunleavy in the bottom corner, and Dunleavy was almost empty before Ginobili's supplementary defense arrived.
Three-point hit! 14 to 20.
There were a lot of missed offenses in the front, and the successive scores in the two or three waves of offense were particularly obvious at this time, and Popovich stood up and simply called a timeout, thinking that there was a problem with the Spurs' defense.
......
Spurs fans make up more than ninety percent of the stadium, and in San Antonio, the Spurs are their pride.
The two-time championship team in the past few years has created a myth of a small ball market and has spread San Antonio's popularity around the world.
Just like many people in other countries may not know who the US Secretary of Defense is, they do know that the Spurs' star is Duncan.
The Spurs have received a high level of support here, from young to middle-aged, young to housewives, students to urban white-collar workers, and on this playoff night, they all have a unified name: Spurs fans.
The championship flag flutters, lights flicker, and cameras capture the details of the players on the field.
At the end of the first quarter of the game, the big screen at the scene showed the highlights of the first quarter edited out in time, Yang Di's violent dunk, Duncan's hook hand, Parker's shot, and Ginobili's layup, forming a group of wonderful shots.
At 19-27, the Warriors trailed the Spurs by eight points.
Montgomery frowned and shouted loudly, encouraging the morale of the players: "We have to move, we need to keep our fighting spirit and aggression high, we played too passively, we didn't fight back, the rhythm of the game should be in our hands!" ”
He has his hopes in the second team, and John Salmons is a talented young player in his opinion who is good enough to lead the second team to chase points.
On the Spurs' side, Popovich was replaced by Parker, who was rested early in the first quarter.
Fisher and Parker, two inextricable "enemies" in the Western Conference semifinals last year, met even more blushing.
There are also Spurs fans who are red, and the 0.4 seconds of hatred are higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea, and the boos are almost from the strength of the whole body, like a tsunami.
Yang Di was taken aback, he didn't expect Fisher to be hated to this point in this place, I'm afraid Kobe Bryant didn't have such a big boo, right?
"Last year, he was killed by Derrick in 0.4 seconds, and in the regular season this year, Tracy cut 13 in 35 seconds to take away the game, I think the Spurs will not be able to win the championship this year."
Richardson said devinely, and that sounded quite reasonable.
Yang Dimo rubbed his chin and said, "In this way, it's hard for the Spurs to pass our level." ”
"It's definitely not going to pass, as long as you help me stop that damn Californian, I'll be able to cut the score, and then we'll chase the score and take the game away."
"No problem."
Yang Di looked at Richardson with a gritted tooth look, knowing that he hated the Spurs Bowen's defense.
"I don't want to see that ugly face at all, to be honest."
"If you look at it more, you will get used to it, first of all, you have to have a good mentality."
Richardson shot just 1-of-6 in the first quarter, and his shooting percentage was miserable.
The two looked up at the second quarter of the game, and on the Warriors' side, in addition to John Salmons, Davis still stayed on the court, which means that Fisher and Davis formed a double guard, and Salmons became the No. 3 position, and the Warriors' outside ball points suddenly became very many.
It's a weird lineup, but it's a lot of things for Montgomery in the second half of the regular season.
On the one hand, it is because of the trust in Fisher's defensive ability, and on the other hand, it is also due to Davis's strong body and scoring ability, which is fully qualified for the second position.
On the Spurs' side, Brent Barry, Glenn Robinson and Robert Horry form a veteran lineup.
Although Salmons entered the playoffs for the second time, when he entered the playoffs the year before last, he was only a fringe man on the team, averaging only 2.7 minutes per game, which means that he has no experience, and can only say that he has felt such a similar atmosphere a little.
After coming on the court, Salmons was excited, and Robinson found his mental instability in the first possession, and an early press forced Salmons to turn his back.
With this back, Robert Horry, who expanded the defense, stretched out his long arm and "snapped" the basketball in his hand.
Spurs fight back!
