Chapter 106: Scene 4

From the lineup, the Spurs lost!

It was a discovery that left Popovich anxious. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the past, he focused most of his attention on the Lakers, but he didn't expect that when he finally used his wisdom to lead his disciples over this high mountain, a more tall and majestic mountain suddenly blocked their path!

But I have to say that this is a stubborn old man, such a strong enemy has aroused him, as he gets older, he hides his ambition to conquer everything!

Lighting a strong cigarette and brewing a refreshing cup of coffee, he pulls out the tactical board and the player information he has collected!

Parker vs. Billups, Popovich writes these two names first on the tactical board.

Height, weight, speed, age, overall situation, technology, and the comparison of the cocoon one by one, and finally wrote his own comments on it: "Youth, speed, and physical strength have an advantage, and you can choose to break through quickly."

Bowen VS Hamilton, this one was written down and skipped by him! There is no need to compare at all, strict defense is the only choice!

Ginobili or Tekoglou VS Prince, Tekoglu has the same characteristics as Prince, and is good at controlling the tempo in all aspects, Ginobili breaks through well and has the advantage of speed.

Popovich ended up drawing a circle around Ginobili's name!

The power forward is the Spurs' only advantage, and Popovich chose to skip and focus directly on the center!

Chamberlain vs Ben Wallace, weight, strength, rebounding, defense, every time he writes an item, Popovich makes a cross, and he stops his pen on shooting, passing, speed!

After a slight pause, he then used his pen to connect Chamberlain, Parker, and Ginobili into a line, and inserted Duncan and Bowen in the middle. He then connected them separately on the tactical board, and as he changed again and again, the positions of the five people were like chess pieces on a chessboard, changing from moment to moment as he turned his pen!

The third game of the Spurs vs. the Pistons in the finals not only had a great impact on Popovich's psychology, but also on Chamberlain!

At the same time, in a different place, when Popovich racked his brains for this, Chamberlain could not sleep peacefully!

Shaking his head, pulling his unconscious and distant thoughts back, Chamberlain's attention was once again on the computer screen. That's a video file, Pistons vs. Bucks, Pistons vs. Nets, Pistons vs. Pacers!

It's a video of all the games the Pistons played against the opponents he met in this year's playoffs!

Chamberlain hoped that these documents would give him a hint and allow him to find a way to deal with Rashid Wallace!

Failure is not terrible, the important thing is to find a solution!

At this time, Chamberlain was no longer depressed, and the giving from the system gave him the confidence to overcome all difficulties. At that time, he would feel depressed, because he became arrogant in those praises, lost himself, and because the gap between reality and imagination was too big for him to accept for a while!

A young heart is about to go through the waves. The fate of falling rocks and ups and downs is the real excitement of life, isn't it?

The next day, while the Spurs were training, the official website of the NBA headquarters announced the punishment decision for the players involved in the clash between the Pistons and the Spurs: Chamberlain and Duncan were fined $5,000, Rasheed Wallace was fined $10,000, and Ben Wallace was fined $5,000. (Note: This is based on the conflict between the Rockets and the Suns in 2008, when the NBA's official measure was to suspend punishment and continue to investigate the truth of the matter.) You get the idea!)

On June 14, 2004, the fourth game between the two sides began at the home of the Pistons, Auburn Hills Palace!

Spurs, spurred on by a high-scoring victory in the last game, took a short break in the locker room, heard the clear cheers of the fans coming from the door. Of course, this is not to welcome them!

Amid the boos of the Auburn Hills Palace fans, the Spurs' five leading players ran out of the tunnel one after another, and with the DJ's muttering, Popovich's re-planning, his ideal starting lineup appeared in front of the fans in this game.

The Spurs' five starters are: center Chamberlain, power forward Tim Duncan, small forward Manu Ginobili, scoring Bruce Bowen, and playmaking guard Tony Parker.

After a few minutes of warm-up time, the players from both teams left the pitch one after another.

At this time, the lights of the stadium suddenly dimmed, and the noisy scene suddenly fell silent.

Immediately, a hot cheerleader girl with a body that seriously violated the image of the home stadium began to dance vigorously in the center of the court.

"Remember our practice boys, remember our rhythm, forget their defense, here is the Grand Final, the Grand Final!"

Popovich, who was not at ease, reminded his players again before going on the field.

As the referee's whistle sounded, the cheerful entertainment atmosphere of the entire stadium disappeared, and the cheerleaders who had completed their work quickly dispersed to the sidelines, and the ten leading players of the two teams appeared one after another.

It was Ben Wallace who won the opening jump shot, and he didn't have any pressure to play the basketball to Billups.

Billups received the ball and fell in his own half for a moment before dribbling to the Spurs' half.

Billups's power oppression was too bullying, guarding against his old trick Parker, and letting him go half a step away when defending!

After receiving the ball from the baseline, Tony Parker's light footsteps rushed to the midfield like lightning.

At the same moment, Ginobili and Chamberlain shook off everyone, like two off-string arrows, quickly moving forward.

At this time, the Pistons were slightly old, and there was no way to return to the basket before the two people, and the experienced Billups simply pounced directly on Parker, who was holding the ball, hoping to delay the time!

However, Parker did not panic, and before Billups could get close, he jumped up in small steps and handed the ball to Chamberlain, who had already reached the frontcourt, with a long pass with his right hand.

Chamberlain, who turned to catch the ball, saw that Ginobili had rushed to the free throw line.

"Manu!"

reminded his teammates who were still charging with a voice, held the ball with his left hand, and gently pushed with his right hand, and the basketball began to fly towards the basket unhurriedly.

Looking at the basketball flying overhead, in the empty inner line of the Pistons, Ginobili stepped on the floor with his right foot, and his snake-like body seemed to be out of the gravity of the earth, and after jumping up and taking off the basketball with his right hand, he twisted his waist hard, and his body rotated an upper body in the air, and his right hand drew a half-arc in the air, smashing the ball into the basket.
