That night, the Knicks flew to San Antonio on a special plane to wait for the third game.

The atmosphere of the finals here is also very lively, and slogans can be seen everywhere.

People always say that Spurs are a small club, but there are actually a lot of fans here. San Antonio, located in south-central Texas, is the second most populous city in Texas, after Houston, and the seventh most populous city in the United States.

But San Antonio isn't a cosmopolitan city, and people probably won't know about it without looking at the nhaR spoon. The economic situation is bleak, and it is not ranked at all in the United States. And Miami, Boston is a small city for the population, but it is bustling. The Holy City's economy is smaller than that of Oklahoma and Sacramento.

The next day, Zhou Xuan and Duncan had lunch together, and the competition between the two teams had entered a white heat, and the two did not talk about basketball, but talked about some gossip casually.

Neither of them wants the other to know that they don't know what they are doing. Duncan didn't dare to say that he would definitely be able to handle the Knicks in this game, and in the last quarter of the game, the Knicks also found a way to deal with the Spurs.

When Bamot is on the court, the Knicks can play small-ball play, with one of the two guards defending Bamot by simply catching the ball and shooting from the corner. Duncan is not likely to score a high score by playing a guard in a misplaced position, he is not a young man after all, and his body is limited. These are the weaknesses of Spurs.

Before the start of the B-day game, the cc6 commentator analyzed the winning rate.

Zhang Li was a little worried: "The Knicks have lost their home-court advantage before, and the shape is a little disadvantageous. The Spurs have always been strong at home, losing just six games here during the regular season and having the second-highest home win percentage in the West. Judging by the swing in the playoffs, the Spurs are quite steady. ”

Yu Jia said: "The Knicks also have a high away win rate, and I think the two sides are still half a catty. ”

Zhang said: "In the eyes of the outside world, the Spurs mainly rely on Parker, Ginobili, Duncan, and Ray Allen, but in fact, the Spurs play a lot of people, and the role of role players is definitely no worse than that of the Knicks bench." And there's one more thing the Spurs have to do better than the Knicks, and that's the team coach. Vicky is one of the few coaches that D'Antoni admires. ”

Judging from the number of Jù opened by Jingcai.com, this Spurs is widely favored. The Spurs have a relatively high handicap win rate in the playoffs this season, and the home win rate and handicap win rate are even higher. Judging from the current form and trend of the two teams, the Spurs should have a good swing.

The arena was packed, and the spectators uniformed their costumes. It is said that some fans could not go to the scene to watch the game because they could not buy tickets, so they arranged their homes as the home of the Spurs, with large self-made banners, Spurs jersey display boards, and championship trophies, showing the style of die-hard fans. It was also in the newspapers.

The unity of the fans is also an advantage for Spurs.

The Knicks adjusted their lineup, and Chandler returned to strengthen his defense on the inside. The Spurs' lineup was the same as Game 2, with Bamot sitting on the bench and Green adding a three-point shot.

The pace of the game was not fast on both sides, 18-17, and the Knicks led by one point.

In the second quarter of the bench battle, the Knicks had a slight advantage. Bledsoe was called by the coaching staff to talk alone before the game, and the task of speeding up and resolutely playing fast break was handed over to Parsons.

Parsons now gets more minutes than Anderson and is an important role player in the B4 position. He averaged 2 per game. 2 minutes to get 14. 1 point, 46 rebounds, B-assists, 1 steal. Look at Gallinari, who is not inferior to the Nuggets, and Batum, who is not inferior to the Trail Blazers.

Parsons played a high game to pass the ball to his teammates, with Nick Young, Scola and Bredsoe leading the attack.

Spurs Harris, Neil, and Ginobili attacked fiercely, and the score was deadlocked. After Zhou Xuan came on the field, he and Bledsoe formed a double back, but they still couldn't open the score.

The Spurs resolutely defended single-handedly, and mainly defended three-pointers, preferring to let Zhou Xuan score rather than let him assist. Zhou Xuan's numbers were beautiful again, and he scored 2 points and B assists in the third quarter. The Spurs are based on the idea that stars can swing and defend role players, with a good chance of winning.

Spurs have been this defensive philosophy for years. If you had to pick the best team to defend in the decade, it would undoubtedly be the Spurs, who have been among the best in the league in defense since winning their first championship in 1999. But when it comes to the playoffs, almost every year there are players who play top-notch numbers against the Spurs.

In 1999, the Madman Sprewell averaged 2 points per game against the Spurs, and the team scored 79 points in total. B points, 2 points per game in the playoffs. In '26, Hardaway ranked first on the team in scoring, assists, and steals against the Spurs, and his rebounds were also second on the team. In 2o1, Kobe Bryant averaged 32 years per game against the Spurs, and Kobe Bryant 2. 2 points, 4 rebounds, 4B assists, 1 steal. In 2o3, Bryant had 3-points, 6 rebounds, B offense and 1 steal. In 2o4, Kobe Bryant scored 15 points in the fourth quarter and finished with 6 rebounds and 6 assists. 2o5 Nash 2f122uu Bunch Wells 2. 2 points and 2 rebounds, 42 of which were offensive rebounds, and a staggering 6 percentage from the field. o。 In 2o7, Nash played the series again 2If2......

There are too many of these columns, and they have continued to this day, and the defensive system that Vicky has built is different.

The Knicks are the core of defense, saying that they don't let Parker swing anything, and at the same time defend three-pointers, so Duncan's number jù is the most beautiful for the Spurs. It's not that his strength is no different from when he was at his peak, but he got too many easy shots and has not been trapped.

In the fourth quarter, the Spurs' efficiency began to decline, and the Knicks had the best chance to win, but Parsons, Matthews, and Anderson took turns playing iron and wasted a lot of good shooting opportunities.

With 17 seconds left to end the game, the Knicks led by three points, and the Spurs played a fast break, and Green hit a three-pointer to tie the score at 94.

Zhou Xuantong guò double-blocked and caught the ball to grab three points, and missed the killer shot. This season he seems to have become out of reach, and the two sides went to extra time.

People thought that the Spurs would definitely suffer in overtime, but the veteran instead took advantage of his experience and played without hurry, Duncan and Dior gave Parker a double block and a plan to organize.

Parker burst to the basket twice and forced layups to score, and Dio also assisted Green to shoot a three-pointer and hit a wave.

In the final minute, Green hit another three-pointer. He set the record for the most three-pointers hit in a single game in the history of the NHA Finals, tying Ray Allen's single-game B three-pointers.

Zhou Xuan also had a good record, scoring 43 points - rebounds and 11 assists - steals. Helplessly, the beautiful number was ruined by Green's record-breaking three-pointer. Ray Allen continued to slump and only scored 7 points, and Green seemed to be possessed by Ray Allen at the peak, who was a nobody before, and now has become the league's hottest pitcher.

It's not that the Knicks don't defend strictly, but that Green dares to pull out, and there are people in front of him who defend it.

D'Antoni said after the game: "The loss in this game is entirely because of the Spurs' horizontal swing from the outside, I don't believe he (Green) can be so accurate every game, and we will win next game." ”

Vicky praised Green and praised Duncan as an inside pivot for his excellent swing. Entering the Finals, Duncan had a double-double every game, and today he scored 2 points and 1 rebound. He is also averaging 17 per game this season. 6 points, 9 rebounds, 2 offenses and 27 blocks, very stable.

Zhou Xuan did not express his frustration, he said: "Although we are 2 years behind, we haven't lost yet, our plan is to win one or two games at home with Spurs, and then go back to the home court to decide the winner, we are confident that we can do it." ”

The reporter asked: "You played a very beautiful number in the finals this time, averaging 3f1o per game, do you feel that your teammates rely too much on you?" ”

Zhou Xuan shook his head: "No, what we have to do now is to forget about counting, whoever has a good chance should make a bold move." I scored a lot because of the opponent's defensive strategy, they didn't pack me, and I was confident to throw the ball in the mismatch. ”

Chandler was questioned the most because Duncan's number jù was so beautiful, and some said Chandler was blown up. Zhou Xuan spoke for his teammates. "Tyson has quality, and Duncan's good count has little to do with his defense. Now the Spurs are outside-in, and the big guys are pulling out. He's done a really good job of defending breakouts and rotations.

After a day off, it was time for the fourth battle. The Knicks can't afford to lose again, or the Spurs will get a match point. D'Antoni sent an attacking lineup in the opening game.

If there were tactical tests in the first three games, the fourth battle began to be a competition of strength and perseverance. Anthony will not make any more mistakes, and he knows who to use in any situation.

Chandler was the main defense of Duncan and switched to Parker. Leonard made a cameo appearance at the No. 4 position to play small-ball tactics, Nick Young entered the lineup, and Matthews and Zhou Xuan were still on the periphery.

This lineup took the lead from the start and won by surprise.

Nick Young's body does not suffer at the No. 1 position, and he has no problem against Green, and he can also prevent Dior from shooting after being misplaced. On the offensive end, Nick Young has a ball-handling offensive point. Green went to defend Zhou Xuan, and Nick Young hit three points twice in front of Parker, and he finally showed the strength of the demon and began to convuls.

The three swingmen withdrew, as soon as Chandler and Zhou Xuan blocked and dismantled, Duncan had to defend himself, Zhou Xuan opened up the space, and when Chandler cut into the air, this move made the Spurs uncomfortable. The Knicks led by 1o points 3-2.

In the second quarter, Parsons came on as a playmaker, partnering Anderson, Blecher, Bledsoe, and Matthews. The players took turns resting to keep their bodies in shape and suppress the Spurs' counter-attack.

In the third quarter, Zhou Xuan was still on the periphery, and after passing the ball, he waited for three-point opportunities in the middle and on both sides, reducing the number of shots. Whenever a teammate misses a shot, he immediately goes back to the defense and Parker, relying on his excellent anticipation to block the fast break. He scored less, but he made a big difference, and he had a firm grip on the situation.

The Knicks led the way. In the final quarter, Zhou Xuan relied on the cover to misplace and forced a breakthrough, causing Duncan to foul for the fifth time and let him go to rest. Split came off the bench and the Knicks began to compress the defense. Bamot and Harris missed consecutive shots, and the difference in the last minute was 14 points, and the Spurs were powerless.

1oI Knicks win away with a total score.
