Portland, Rose Garden Arena. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info hot cheerleaders are performing in the middle of the court, and this group of little girls has been practicing this dance for a week for these few minutes. But there is a very unfair but untrue fact that among the nearly 20,000 spectators at the scene, the number of people who watched their performances seriously may not even be one percent.

It can't be helped, it's not because this group of energetic young girls is not attractive enough, but because the game itself is just too attractive.

Now even if it is a break, some fans are staring at the big screen, and some are taking advantage of the moment to catch their breath and sit a little forward, and they all pay attention to the situation on the benches of the two teams. In short, compared to this game, the performance of the cheerleading girls is too unattractive.

"Don't fall into the trap of their defense, let's increase the number of mid-range shots and shots from beyond the three-point line! Your opponent has changed, and we have to change our strategy!Increase the number of shots and make good use of the gaps left by the opponent's defense!" Popovich's shout made the fans in the back row of the Spurs bench hear clearly, they don't know where this old man came from so loudly, they only know that the Spurs, who have taken the lead, are actually very nervous!

If it weren't for the two main players of Anjie and Aldridge being taken down by Ricard early, the Spurs would not have had a chance to overtake the score. Besides, who would have thought that damn Stephen Jackson would suddenly explode. I believe that after Ricard's arrangement, Steve Jackson will not continue his excellent performance in the second quarter.

"You guys played well in the first quarter, Ahn, LaMarcus, how did you rest?" Contrary to the Spurs, as the trail blazers, Ricard and the players looked much more relaxed.

Sometimes, the score doesn't reflect the real situation on the field. Now, for example, although the Trail Blazers are two points behind, they are actually much more aggressive than the Spurs, who are leading the way.

"We're all suffocating, aren't we? An Jie turned his head sideways and looked at his good partner, and said that An Jie and Aldridge are the most offensive interior combination in the league. Unexpectedly, these two people tried their best to defend, but they were not easy to mess with.

"Well, listen, although we are temporarily behind, I still don't advocate that you fight back with all your might. Continuing to play well defensively, Popovich's old fox should get his players to take more shots in the second quarter. So my request is that you change your defensive strategy back to man-marking, get closer to your own position, try to defend closely, and don't put too much space for them. As long as we can keep the Spurs guys from hitting a few shots in a row, then our chance is here!" Ricard said as he suddenly clenched his fists, as if he had grabbed something.

"Man-to-man, boss, are you sure we're going to use man-to-man?" In the first quarter of the game, the Trail Blazers used joint defense to force the Spurs so embarrassed, and Anjie was a little worried, what if Ricard guessed Popovich's intentions wrong?

"No matter how good Popovich is, the one around his neck is also a human head. Man to man, close to the defense!" As soon as Ricard finished speaking, the referee began to urge the players of both sides to hurry up and get on the field.

The T.NT trio immediately put on their headsets again, and the wonderful game, how could they not have their wonderful commentary?

The Spurs started the second quarter, and since Tony Parker played a little long in the first quarter, Popovich decided to let the Frenchman rest for a while.

Replacing Tony Parker is an undrafted player like Wesley Matthews, small guard Gary Neal.

As a two-way defender, Gary Neal may not seem proficient in anything, but he can actually do anything. Whether it's playmaking or shooting, whether it's breaking or splitting, Neil can do a good job of the tasks that Popovich has given him.

This time, although he played in the number one position, he came to score. Those gaps outside the three-point line and mid-range after the Trail Blazers defense are the key points where Neil is preparing to focus on raiding!

As soon as he dribbled past half-time, Neil passed the ball out. With mediocre playmaking skills, he can't command the Spurs' complex system like Parker, and the purpose of passing the ball is to make himself more comfortable running!

Following Popovich's instructions, the Spurs are reducing the number of pick-and-rolls they use off-ball and passing the ball. As a result, Neil received very little support during his runs.

Leonard, who was holding the ball, saw that Neil had not been able to get a good chance, so he chose Plan B and gave the ball to Matt Bonner, who was standing outside the three-point line and replaced Duncan.

Bonner had the ball, and Anjie had to follow out of the basket. But this time, the Trail Blazers' defense seems to have turned back into a joint defense. The man who defended Bonner close to him became Jamal Crawford, while Angel got tangled up to Ginobili who cut inside.

Angel's raised hands completely blocked Ginobili's receiving lane, and Matt Bonner couldn't shoot or pass the ball under Crawford's interference. He can only raise his hands in Crawford's close defense and use his feet to protect the basketball as much as possible.

But how could the sluggish Bonner escape Crawford's fast hands? Seeing the right moment, Crawford took a step back, and then sprinted violently! At this moment, Bonner, who was not reacting in time, watched Crawford take the basketball in his hand.

The Spurs players, who were still running for offense, hurriedly turned around and returned to defense, but only Leonard, who was outside the three-point line, looked hopeful of stopping Crawford's fast break.

Crawford pushed forward quickly with the ball, and there weren't any Trail Blazers or Spurs players in front of him, but the guy still held back a glance just to be on the safe side.

Behind him, the Spurs' "long-handed monster" Kawhi Leonard is chasing after him. Crawford still remembers the image of Konteney Lee's killer being blocked by Leonard, and he didn't want to be another victim of the monster.

So when Crawford stepped into the three-second zone with one foot, he suddenly made a pass that allowed Gerard Wallace to get the ball from the side.

At the same time, Kawhi Leonard also stopped his tracks, and he quickly turned and was ready to block Gerard Wallace's attack at any time!

Wallace slapped the basketball hard, then grabbed the ball and looked like it was about to take three steps to the basket! Just before he made contact with Leonard, Gerard Wallace gently sent the ball away.

Leonard reflexively tried to reach for the basketball, but a pair of large, yellow-skinned hands caught the basketball firmly before him.

Leonard, because of Gerard Wallace, was on the right side of the basket. And right in front of the basket, the main portal opens!

When Anjie received the ball, he also swept past Leonard. Leonard tried to reach out to stop it, but eventually gave up on it. He didn't want that Trail Blazers guy to get a three-point shot. This is the Rose Garden, not the ATT Center. It is impossible for the referee to withstand huge pressure to favour the Spurs who are playing away from home.

So, An Jie lifted the ball over his head with one hand and jumped on one leg. After gliding through the air for a short distance, An Jie smashed the basketball into the basket fiercely!

"Oh!" Catherine shouted as she surrounded her, raising her arms. She had already gotten up from her seat, just to wait for this moment to appear. The basketball court is really much more interesting than the catwalk.

"Ann's tomahawk slam dunk! The Spurs' advantage was wiped out in an instant, and as soon as they came up, they made mistakes that they shouldn't have made. Kenny Smith knew the second quarter was going to be exciting, but he didn't expect the best shots to come so early.

After being stolen by Crawford, Bonner was naturally very unconvinced, so in the next round of the Spurs' offense, he ignored Crawford, who was much shorter than him, and shot directly outside the three-point line after receiving the ball.

If it was the first quarter, the Trail Blazers' defense with a large gap outside the three-point line might really be caught by Bonner. It's just that now, Crawford, who executed Rickard's defensive strategy, didn't make Bonner's shot very comfortable. On the contrary, Bonner's already bizarre shooting was seriously distracted by Crawford!

missed the shot, and Anjie easily protected the defensive rebound on Dior's head. After that, Jamal Crawford rushed headlong into the Spurs half, and Anjie also launched a long pass from the backcourt as Popovich had expected!

It's just that right now, the Spurs, who have a majority of bench players, simply don't have the ability to intercept long passes. Facing the Spurs' starting five, Anjie may also signal the team to press the tempo. But now, it's the Trail Blazers' chance to get up to speed!

Crawford struggled with Ricard's slow-paced offense, and this time, he finally had a chance to run and sprint and then crash to the basket.

Anjie's basketball passed just right, and Crawford just raised his arm and took the basketball off. When he's on the ball, he's at the top of his pace.

"It's coming!" a rare opportunity to perform, and Crawford naturally won't let it go easily. He slammed his left leg into the air and flew into the air, and then Crawford raised the ball behind his head with both hands and dunked it into the basket. Leonard is still the quickest player for the Spurs to come back to defense, but this time, even he can't stop the Trail Blazers from scoring. It couldn't be helped, from grabbing a rebound to completing a goal, the Trail Blazers only used one pass. Anjie's precise long pass even amazed many rugby players. Such a fast attack is not something that Leonard can defend now.

Two goals, two fast breaks, two dunks. Don't look at the score is not much, but with two wonderful offenses, the momentum of the Trail Blazers has completely reached its peak! In the next three minutes, the Spurs' almost second-team configuration was beaten back by the Trail Blazers. Although there was a combination of an offensive foul by Jamal Crawford and a block by Anjie that was blown to interfere with the ball, it still did not affect the overall trend of the Trail Blazers.

The offensive climax has come one after another, and the Spurs have been in disarray. Subsequently, Popovich replaced all three of them who had rested enough. It was only at this time that the Trail Blazers' offensive pace slowed down a little.

But in the face of the pioneers who have gone crazy, all GDP can do is delay. In the face of the Trail Blazers' sudden change of close defense, GDP's offense was also bumpy and bumpy, and it was impossible to form an effective counterattack at all.

At the time of Anjie's break, the Trail Blazers once led by 15 points. And when the second quarter ended, the Spurs were still down 54-43 despite recovering some points!

Excellent defense allowed the Trail Blazers to build an equally good offense on top of that. Fortunately, halftime came "in time", otherwise, God knows what the red-eyed Trail Blazers would have played.

The Spurs are getting a little respite now, but the second half of the game may make it even more difficult for them!

Anjie and his pioneers haven't gone crazy enough!
