Chapter 513: Leonard is the king

The Knicks can still suppress the Spurs, and the Spurs are also enthusiastic at this time, and a group of veterans have made every effort to chase the score back.

The Spurs used to play Duncan cheaply, Duncan was caught in the last round, and now the Spurs are playing again, and the basketball goes directly to Leonard's hands, and Leonard takes the ball to face Li Feng.

Immediately, the audience was cheering, you must know that Leonard is the most popular young man in the Spurs.

Leonard also pulled away to beat Li Feng at this time, Li Feng was staring at Leonard at this time, and the two of them faced Mai Mang again.

In this case, Leonard faced Li Feng, dribbled under his crotch, changed direction, changed direction again, and waited until Li Feng stepped forward.

Leonard suddenly bumped into Li Feng's arms, Leonard hit Li Feng's body hard, Li Feng was happy to have a physical confrontation with Leonard, just when Li Feng came up, Leonard took a step back with the help of this impact.

This time, Li Feng's steps were stiff, but Leonard used the reaction force to retreat a long way, and Leonard raised his hand when Li Feng pounced.

Leonard suddenly rolled over, and after stepping back, he could still feint, and Leonard dodged Li Feng's turnaround jumper to score two points again.

"Whoa!"

Once Leonard scored a point, the entire San Antonio Garden was cheered, mainly because Leonard's scoring move was too beautiful.

Skills, confrontation, and timing are all extremely perfect, Li Feng is also convinced after being shaken away, this guy does have the ability, he can still perform skills after high-intensity confrontation, and he can also make continuous feints.

Just this ability to display skills under high difficulty, Li Feng is not as good as him.

Leonard scored points, the home fans were full of momentum, the momentum of the Spurs rose again, and the Knicks and Spurs were in a continuous tug-of-war.

It's not just about skills. There is also resilience and will, and this confrontation is a total investment on both sides, both physically and mentally.

And it is not easy for the Knicks to hold on to the Spurs in this state, and it is not easy to compete for toughness, you must know that the Knicks are a very young team, and the Spurs are very experienced champions.

The Knicks kicked off in the backcourt, and with only 25 seconds left, they could only launch the last offense.

At this moment, the Knicks grasped the offensive initiative, and Li Feng took the ball in the backcourt and advanced towards the Spurs' half.

San Antonio's home stadium is also booing Li Feng at this time. In the midst of the wild boos all over the field, Li Feng's face was calm like an ancient well, no joy or sorrow, and he was very stable and calm with the ball.

At this time, the Spurs tried to put pressure on Li Feng, and Li Feng held the ball and protected the basketball to the center line.

Li Feng pulled out so far that the Spurs couldn't control the space, so they could only shrink back, so Li Feng still came up to do one-on-one singles with Danny Green.

Li Feng holds the ball. Time is decreasing, 0 seconds, 9 seconds, seconds. 7 seconds, when the time is up to 7 seconds.

Li Feng's body started slowly, Li Feng's rhythm was not fast, and the strength was not great. Dribbling under his crotch and taking a small step forward, Danny Green immediately nervously followed Li Feng's rhythm and moved a small step.

Both are tiny movements, after momentary movements. Li Feng once again changed direction with one hand with a very small amplitude, and at the same time his body swayed slightly.

Danny Green was a little impatient at this time, he came over and wanted to stick to Li Feng, Li Feng and Danny Green really came, and he also crashed into Danny Green's body.

When Li Feng bumped into Danny Green with all his strength, he was actually the same as Leonard, and with the help of this reaction force, he jumped sideways and took a backward step.

Danny Green was hit by Li Feng, his steps were stiff, but Li Feng came prepared and pulled up a three-point shot.

"Brush!"

Li Feng's three-point shot hit! "Oooh!"

Once Li Feng's three-point shot was shot, the whole court was booed with annoyance, but the Knicks' bench was boiling.

All the Knicks players also waved their fists, and in the last 2 minutes of the third quarter, the Knicks were chased hard by the Spurs, and the two teams continued to see-saw, but now Li Feng finally used his personal ability to draw an end to this confrontation.

Even when the Knicks players were cheering wildly, the Spurs did not give up, and even though the clock was only 2 seconds left, the Spurs still called a long timeout.

In the last two seconds of the third quarter, the Spurs were still calculating and counterattacking, which shows the intensity of today's game.

Logically speaking, the Spurs don't have these 2 seconds, and there are still 2 minutes left, but if they lose to the Knicks at this time, the Spurs' morale will be affected, so at this time, even if there are only the last 2 seconds left, the Spurs still have to catch it.

While the Spurs were laying out their tactics, Joan Barry and Bill Wharton also began to comment.

At this point, Bill Wharton said:

"In today's game, the two sides are fighting most of the time, and the game is glued together, but this kind of game has huge risks anytime and anywhere, and the Knicks slacked off a little, and it became what it is now, the two teams have the most fierce competition, this kind of game, is super high-intensity."

When Bill Wharton said this, Joanbarry also said:

"In today's game, the Spurs played tenaciously as always, the Spurs completely played their own style today, the Knicks, as a young team, can play with the Spurs until now, these two teams are old and young, and they really played a great game."

Both Joan Barry and Bill Wharton praised today's game, and the fans of this game also felt breathless, it was indeed an extremely good game.

It was also at this time that the Spurs came back, and at this time the Spurs replaced a bunch of shooters, Ginobili, Gary Neal, Leonard, Bonner, and Duncan, and the Spurs were on a big and four small at this time, obviously to catch a three-point shot.

The Spurs' goal is well known to everyone about Sima Zhao's heart, and at this time, the TV broadcast camera is also given to Ginobili, who is the most likely to carry out this last blow as a standard killer.

The Spurs kicked off, and the first to run out was not Ginobili but Leonard, who used Ginobili's cover to run out, and everyone thought it would be Leonard's shot.

Ginobili slammed Dragic from the wing and jumped out of the three-point line. At this time, Duncan on the sideline passed the ball, Ginobili received the ball, and then shot quickly like lightning.

The red light came on from the first moment Ginobili left the basketball, and Dragic's defense was in place.

Dragic landed, Ginobili landed, the basketball got into the basket, and Ginobili raised his hands high.

Ginobili also shot a whistle shot in the last 2 seconds, and the audience was thunderous at this time.

It was at this point that the game really entered the climax. Li Feng hit a three-point shot at the last moment, and Ginobili countered the kill.

The two teams were still tied and entered the fourth quarter.

At this point, the third quarter was over, and the Spurs were jubilant because they still caught up in the last moments.

And the Knicks were not to be outdone at this time, after all, they didn't lose either, and there were still 2 minutes left in the game, and there was still one battle in the last quarter.

The two teams were at the bottom of the third quarter for a few minutes. They all played their own momentum, and the intensity of the game also reached the highest state, with this passionate momentum, both teams temporarily stopped.

At this time Joanbari came out in the intersection and said:

"I really didn't expect it! Ginobili also delivered a wonderful whistle shot two seconds after the worst. This guy is simply a natural killer. ”

Bill Wharton also said excitedly at this time:

"Ginobili's last goal saved the spirit of the Spurs, his presence is absolutely indispensable to the Spurs, he is the sharpest sword of the Spurs in the critical moment, and he is a killer that any enemy must guard against."

Both Joan Barry and Bill Wharton were full of praise for Ginobili.

Both teams had a five-minute break. The fourth quarter kicked off and the two teams restarted, at which time the Knicks were in the first ten minutes of the fourth quarter. A pure bench line-up, with Dragic, Belineri, Smith, Monroe and Vucevic playing together.

The Knicks on the Spurs' side are also a pure bench lineup, Gary Neal, Ginobili, Danny Green, Bonner, Blair.

Both teams are substitute lineups to face the game, mainly in the third quarter of the two teams of the main force to fight, at this time must cultivate physical strength, and then in the last stage can come out to play the most difficult final minutes.

The third quarter of the game also completely affected the rhythm of the fourth quarter, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the two teams played very hot.

Especially on the inside, at the critical moment in the third quarter, Monroe was put under Tyberdeau, which made Monroe feel a little depressed, and his teammates rushed to the front to kill, but he had to be the second echelon, which made Monroe feel more or less frustrated.

Now as soon as the fourth quarter opened, he came back and had enough strength to fight with Blair, the first goal of the opening game, Monroe came up and played with Blair's back, although Blair was nicknamed a wild boar because he was called, but he still played fiercely, after all, he was also a Spurs man, and he also fought with Monroe.

During the bench period, the benches of both teams were fighting to the death, but at this time, the Knicks' bench was obviously stronger than the Spurs.

The Spurs' bench vitality is a little lacking and too old, and once the Knicks put it together, the Knicks immediately led the Spurs by 4 points in the first 2 minutes of the fourth quarter.

89-85, the Knicks unconsciously took a slight lead again, and I have to admit that the Knicks have more personnel.

This situation is obviously not what the Spurs want to see, so the Spurs took the lead in calling a timeout and starting to make substitutions.

The Spurs took a few minutes of rest and replaced the strongest lineup of GDP plus Leonard Split.

When the Knicks made a big substitution for the Spurs, they didn't make a big move, but fine-tuned the lineup.

Tyberdu took on Smith and Kirilenko, turning the team into a combination of Livingston, Smith, Belineri, Kirilenko and Monroe.

This combination is quite sharp in attack, although it is a little worse in height, but it is still very promising to fight with the Spurs.

After the pause, the Spurs' possession, the Spurs played again at this time, Leonard's aura was different from the first moment he got the ball from the wing, Li Feng suppressed it before, and Leonard played wonderful but very tired.

But now once Li Feng is gone, Leonard's presence suddenly becomes prominent.

In the face of Belle, Leonard dribbled twice in a row with one hand, and then desperately hit Belleneri's body at once.

With Leonard's ability to fight, Belineri was hit and stumbled, and that's it. Leonard got to the Knicks' basket and collided with Monroe.

Monroe's defense was already in place, but Leonard was still able to shoot after hitting Monroe.

He was in a strange position in the air, picking up the basketball with one hand, and the basketball spun violently and flew into the Knicks' basket at a vertical angle.

Leonard came up with a wonderful strong play, with great speed and strength, so that the Spurs not only caught up with two points at 87-89, but also drove the Spurs' strong momentum.

Once Leonard hit the ball, the morale of the entire Spurs was suddenly boosted.

The Spurs played with momentum. The Knicks immediately pushed back in, and the Knicks had a good lineup at this point.

Livingston, Smith, Monroe, and Kirilenko are all players who can attack, but there are not many ways to advance to face the Spurs' defense at this time, because the Spurs once they increase their defense to the maximum intensity at this time.

Only super strength can change the opponent's defense, and the average star is no longer enough to control the Spurs' defense.

That's what Li Feng does for the Knicks. When the team couldn't open the state, Smith, who was still the hardest in the body, took the ball up and forced a breakthrough from the middle.

Smith can only rely on himself to fight hard when the team is in trouble, but the Spurs' defense is more than just hard. It's sticky enough, Smith comes up to the Spurs without fouling, and it leaves Smith with no room to shoot.

Smith forced his hand after the most reluctance, and he flew out of the coupon. Basketball still misses.

The Knicks missed another shot, the Spurs' morale was stronger, and Split took the rebound and passed the ball back to Leonard.

Leonard twists his big ass. It was fast and went up to the Knicks' halfcourt.

The Spurs actually had to play an offensive and defensive switch, the Knicks quickly chased up at this time, Leonard faced the Pelineri who caught up, a change of direction that was not fast, and then immediately crotched to protect the ball.

Bellenelli stuck it up and wanted to stick it, but Leonard easily gave Leonard a change of direction under his crotch.

Leonard passed Belineri again, and Monroe and Kirilenko on the Knicks inside came to wrap Leonard together.

But neither of them was tall enough, and Leonard took the ball, pushed it in the air, and threw another incredible layup.

Leonard grazed the basketball towards the rebound from a negative angle almost at a negative angle, and the basketball grazed the rebound and hit it again.

Leonard's two consecutive difficult layups finally leveled the team's score by 89-89, and the score was not only equalized, but the morale of the Spurs was also rising.

The Spurs are so tough, the Spurs are so persevering, and with the slightest opportunity, the Spurs can launch a wave of attacks to turn the game around.

Leonard has already set the atmosphere of the whole court up, but at this time, the Knicks still did not make substitutions.

Joan Barry complained on the side:

"If Tyberdu doesn't change people, it may be over!"

The Knicks won the backcourt rebound here, and they also suddenly launched a quick counterattack against the Spurs.

The Knicks save, Smith sprinted with the ball and then made a quick pass to Livingston as he sprinted past halfcourt.

The moment Livingston got the ball, Kirilenko, who ran up from behind, also arrived, and Livingston circled behind Kirilenko, and then had an idea, his eyes looked at Smith on the flank.

Parker, who came on guard, also thought that Livingston was going to pass the ball, but after such a moment's hesitation, Livingston accelerated and pressed Parker half of his shoulder, and suddenly shot, and the basketball easily fell into the Spurs' basket.

And at this time, Parker also fouled, and the referee's whistle sounded, and the Knicks could also come out to take on the responsibility when there was no Li Feng, and played a 2+1 at a critical moment, which made people feel infinitely surprised.

And when Livingston went to the free throw line, Tyberdu replaced Belineri with Li Feng, and the Knicks still insist on offense first, with 5 players on the court who are very strong in offense.

Li Feng was replaced, but Smith's free throw was missed, 91-89, and the difference between the two teams still did not widen, but at this time Li Feng came back, which was a threat to the Spurs.

The Spurs pushed up very slowly after Smith's free throw, and the Spurs had to play steadily at this point.

Parker took the ball and immediately called Split's high post screen, and using this high post cover, Parker shook left and right, and suddenly hit the free throw line and threw a mid-range jumper.

Parker hasn't attacked for a long time, and at this time he came out to throw one, and the Knicks really didn't expect it.

However, Parker's shooting has always been shaky, and it was the same today, Parker missed the shot.

Parker missed the shot, which was supposed to be an opportunity for the Knicks, but in the fourth quarter, the Spurs suddenly stepped up their scramble for rebounds in the frontcourt.

Split and Duncan didn't retreat quickly, but rushed over to grab the rebound in the frontcourt, and in this case, the Knicks' average height suffered again.

Split pulled the basketball out of Monroe's head, Parker took the ball outside again, and quickly transferred it to Leonard on the other side.

Leonard took the ball and broke through the wing to attract the Knicks' defense, and quickly passed the ball to Split on the baseline, who took the ball and forced a layup, pressed Monroe to wipe the board and scored two points.

The Spurs and Knicks returned to the tug-of-war at the end of the third quarter, in which the Spurs had the advantage of size, but the Knicks scored more points and could score more, so the two teams began to play close again.

The Spurs are stronger defensively, the Knicks are stronger offensively, and the two teams are equal from the current situation. (To be continued......)
