Chapter 133: One Second Space (Asking for Recommendation Votes)

Tony Parker held the ball across the halfcourt, and McConley immediately posted it, and the success of the previous game made Lionel Hollins decide to stick with the defense of the previous game. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

And for the San Antonio people, the most critical moment has come, has Greg Popovich adjusted, or has the adjustment been effective?

Tony Parker wasted no time, and with a lunge, he began to cut in with the ball.

The Grizzlies' defensive expansion soon arrived, Marc Gasol moved to the free throw line, ready to cooperate with McConley to block Tony Parker's inside cut, and the Grizzlies, who are good at hand-to-hand combat, quickly gathered a large number of defenders on the strong side, and almost all five of the Grizzlies' players appeared on the strong side.

Ang Cree took aim at the opportunity, and he withdrew, without anyone noticing......

"Tony Parker's breakthrough, the Spurs still seem to want to stick to their blocking tactics, but Tony Parker is full of defenders in front of him, and the cut with the ball is going to fail. ”

Mike Terike's tone was a bit of a pity, and if the Spurs' offense was still like this, then he could only regret that the Spurs lost again.

"Uh, no, 45 degrees on the other side, who is that?" Hubby Brown was about to say a few words, but he suddenly saw a shadow running out of the crowd, and then at a 45 degree angle on the other side, without any defenders in front of him, he received a pass from Tony Parker!

"Oh! That's China An! He ran out of an open position! Three points in! Beautiful!" Mike Tyrick also found out, he shouted loudly, between the lightning and flint, Anxi made a three-point shot, and the Grizzlies couldn't make up for it, and watched Anxi shoot this pressure-free empty three-point shot!

Three-pointers! Spurs score first! Popovich on the sidelines shook his hands fiercely, then turned around and sat back in his seat, looking very chic, his adjustment was successful!

"Let's use the Grizzlies' shortcomings on the weak side to beat the Grizzlies' defense, and then we can get back to playing the blocking offense that we're good at. ”

Popovich sat on the bench, chin propped up, thinking about the next adjustment.

The game continued, and no one noticed the problem with the Spurs' offensive wave just now, and Hubi Brown just wondered why Anxi suddenly ran to the other side, which is not like the Spurs' running style.

And Mark Stein, who was far away in New York, was watching the game in his office, and when Anxi scored this three-pointer, he burst out with a foul language, he felt that it was just an ordinary goal from the Spurs, an ordinary three-pointer, and there was nothing to say.

The game continued, the Grizzlies' offense, McConley faced Kowhi Leonard again, the Grizzlies began to slow down, they reversed the ball back and forth on the outside, until Zach Randolph was in a good position on the inside, and McConley made a lob and passed the ball in.

Zach Randolph sat down and hit Boris Dio, went inside twice, then turned around and hit a hook shot.

At 3:2, the Grizzlies scored two points.

The Spurs' offense struck again, and it was still the same old routine, with Tony Parker cutting in with the ball and the Grizzlies heavily guarded.

Anxi and Tim Duncan went around the weak side together, Tony Parker's pass came again, and the basketball came to Anxi at the top of the arc, but Tony Allen quickly made up for it.

Anxi glanced at Tim Duncan and passed the ball again.

Tim Duncan, on the other side of the free-throw line, received the ball and shot it without any interference, and the basketball got into the basket.

This time, the Spurs' offense finally caught the attention of others, because of the two consecutive attacks, the Spurs' running and running were different from before.

"Tim Duncan, this time it's his mid-range shot, and the ball goes in crisply. ”

"Yes, in fact, we have found changes in the offensive end of the Spurs, I don't know if you have noticed, the Spurs' two attacks were scored on the weak side, I don't know if it's a coincidence. Hubbie Brown glanced at Mike Terik and asked his question, then went on to explain: "The strong side and the weak side mean that a basketball half is divided into two, the side with the ball is called the strong side, and the side without the ball is called the weak side, and these two consecutive balls are the Spurs' off-ball players running to the weak side, and then catching the ball and shooting, I think this is probably the change that the Spurs made on the offensive end." ”

Lionel Hollins also noticed the change to the Spurs, but he didn't pay attention to it, just shouted from the sidelines: "Pay attention to the defense, pay attention to the defense, don't miss the weak side!"

Lionel Hollins felt that there was a problem with their weak-side defense, so he emphasized it, but as everyone knows, the weak-side defense is a hole in the Grizzlies' defensive system.

The game continued, after Hollins emphasized, McConley and Tony Allen also paid attention to the weak side of the defense, when the Spurs' offense came again, Tony Allen and McConley made up for the weak side in time.

Or in other words, the Spurs are a step slower, after all, it was said before the game that the gap on the weak side of the Grizzlies will only last for a short time, maybe only one second, and the Spurs need to seize the opportunity of the gap and shoot the ball within this second.

There was a wave of failures, but Popovich didn't give up on finding a way to open up the game on the weak side, and he knew that as long as the Spurs took this brief opportunity, it would be enough to break through the Grizzlies' defense.

The game continued, the Grizzlies' offense, McConley's layup was fanned by Tim Duncan, Anxi grabbed the ball and handed the ball to Tony Parker, and the Spurs' offense came again!

Tony Parker cut inside, Anxi went around to the bottom corner of the weak side, and the basketball flew into his hands.

Tony Allen's defense was not in time, and Anxi made another three-point shot!

"Anxi shot a three-pointer on the weak side again!

An Xi waved his fist, his second three-pointer of the game!

The Spurs insisted on focusing on the weak side of the Grizzlies, and for the rest of the first quarter, Popovich also replaced the Spurs' other outside three-point shooter, Danny Green, and even used Matt Bonner, the interior nuclear weapon, and the score was pulled apart.

At the end of the first quarter, the score of the two teams became 35:22, and the Spurs led by 13 points, and throughout the first quarter, Anxi shot 6 three-pointers, hit 4 of them, and scored 12 points.

In other words, Spurs' main tactical play on the weak side has succeeded!

During the break in the quarter, Lionel Hollins was sweating profusely, and he had been anxiously adjusting his tactics on the sidelines.

Strengthen the defense against the weak side? Or simply let the Spurs focus on the weak side? Lionel Hollins' choice is obvious, he chooses to strengthen the defense against the weak side, and this means that the Spurs have broken up the Grizzlies' defensive tactics of expanding on the inside!

So at the beginning of the second quarter, the Spurs found that the Grizzlies had returned to the defensive tactics of last season, which focused on the interior and the restricted area, and Popovich smiled and everything was settled.
