Seeing Split's excellent defense this season, some Spurs fans exclaimed - if Split has Scola's mid-range shot, why should the Spurs worry about the championship?

There are too few perfect players. Chandler also misses the shot, but he will cut to the basket to attract the defense, and Zhou Xuan will send him a wonderful pass, which can be used on the offensive end. Parker is far inferior to Zhou Xuan when it comes to cutting the ball into the air.

Split went to the basket, Duncan couldn't force the attack, and Parker's breakthrough space was also occupied, which the tactical system didn't allow.

Six minutes later, Vicky replaced the Brazilian, who was frequently left on the periphery, and called a timeout.

Van Gundy commented: "Although Split has been excellent defensively this season, I think he should try to be an attacking player or else he will have limited potential. ”

"Magic" Johnson agreed. "He still has time, but he's not too young, born in 192."

Will Split be bogged down in the offensive end of the game in the future, or will it turn around? entered the playoffs, and it was still a shame to say that his form had declined. His performance in the past ten games has been truly miserable. Relying on his teammates to attract the defense, he had every open shot, but only 44. o hit rate, who can accept it

He made fouls to the free throw line, with 73 in the regular season but only in the playoffs. o, in the past six games, when Split was on the bench, the Spurs scored 17 more per 100 possessions. 6 points.

Split is a top-notch finisher under the basket and a much less dangerous player elsewhere. He can't get to the paint on his own, so he needs to get close to the basket to receive passes from teammates, cover and go down or play with his back in the low post. These were his only options.

This means that he needs someone else to give him a chance to create a zào, and the only thing that can be considered an independent attack is a back-to-back single. But he's not a traditional low-post offensive interior lineman who can't attract a bag to create a shooting opportunity for his teammates. And he has to face Chandler in the low post.

When the Knicks defend pick-and-rolls, they always force the defender to pass the ball out. This means that Split will receive the ball away from the rim against the small man, and will neither be able to get fouls on the free throw line nor shoot.

After the timeout, the Spurs switched to Dio and added a shooting point. When the Knicks saw that the big man was down, they immediately replaced Chandler and replaced Bletcher, also adding a shooting point.

Blache is 211cm tall, and the coaching staff thinks Duncan is the right guy to defend against Scola.

Unexpectedly, after this substitution, Duncan exploded, and two low-post strong attacks shook out of space by foot, and turned to shoot basketball. He then broke through with the ball in the high post, causing a foul on Blecher.

Veterans play young people like this, only Duncan can do it in the whole league, in the previous series of the Nets, Bletche did a good job of defending Garnett, but he couldn't defend Duncan one-on-one.

The Spurs also have a weakness, that is, the defense of the guard after the opponent's inside cut, Bleche attracts Duncan's attention, so that he does not dare to stay away from the basket, and Anderson on the perimeter gives his teammates no ball cover, and it is easy to get the opportunity to catch the ball.

At 19-17 in the quarter, the Knicks led by two points.

What was more troublesome was that Leonard didn't control the number of fouls, and he was under too much pressure in the face of Duncan, so he replaced Nick Young with two fouls early. The man who defended Parker at the top of the arc was replaced by Matthews. Because of his height and reach, he is inferior to Leonard in terms of anti-misalignment.

In the second quarter, Bledsoe, Nick Young, Parsons, Scola, and Bletche were all substitutes. Spurs fielded Split, Harris, Bamot, Ginobili, Neil.

A group of offensive players on both sides also fought hard to defend, and they were very careful, including Nick Young. Before the game, the coaching staff specifically told him to put the team first and make a good chance before shooting, and he did it.

The reason why Nick Young became a cancer is not because he wants to show in that direction, but when he was with the Wizards, the whole team was not in a good mood, did not defend, and rushed to be in the limelight, and everyone was like this. Once out of that environment, people want to work hard. Now McGee has signed a big contract with an annual salary of 10 million yuan in the Nuggets, although he doesn't play much time, he is just a bench, and he has played more teams than he played when he was with the Wizards. Nick Young and Blache are also prime examples.

Nick Young only made two shots in six minutes and made a three-pointer, which was decent.

Bredsoe tried his best to control the tempo, had a chance to break fast, but didn't have a chance to cooperate slowly with his teammates, giving Parsons a top of the arc and running on his own.

Su Qun sighed: "Now the Knicks have a group of excellent swing people, and Zhou Xuan can stabilize the rhythm when he is not there, but the Spurs are quite tenacious, especially Split is very successful in defending the interior, and Bamot is also very quick to change defenses, fortunately, the Spurs frontcourt players are generally offensive, otherwise the game is really not easy to play." ”

Yang Jian said: "Ginobili became the main point of attack today, he played very poorly on the court, and he was very positive today. ”

The score was deadlocked, and Zhou Xuan came out 6 minutes later. Although it was the last game, he didn't think about playing the whole game, and it was more efficient to rest for a while. He can also observe the opponent's adjustments off the field and analyze what may happen next. Chandler also returned to the court to defend Duncan.

Duncan is crazy this time, and he dares to attack in the face of Chandler, and he plays very aggressively, and he seems to have returned to the time when he fought against the Pistons and the Twin Towers 1o years ago.

Chandler has a strong ability to disturb, but is not good at blocking, Duncan used technology to shake a little space, three board-wiping jump shots, and grabbed a frontcourt rebound to attract the bag and then assisted Parker to score on a mid-range shot. Spurs reversed the score just before halftime.

The halfcourt was 4o to 45, and the Knicks were six points behind.

Zhou Xuan was steady, scored 9 points, and sent out the attack. Duncan finished with 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds, along with two assists and two blocks, and nearly had a double-double at halftime.

At half-time, D'Antoni stressed that the players should be steady and not panic, as five points is a small difference. Role players on the offensive end have to dare to shoot, and 4o points in the half is too little for the Knicks.

Last season, the mentality of young players in such a crucial game may have gone wrong, but not now. Leonard and Parsons saw a big scene in the Finals last time, and there is nothing to be afraid of. Zhou Xuan taught them how to reduce stress, and silently recited "aI111" in his heart

The classic line in the Indian movie "Three Fools", your heart is very fragile and easily afraid, and you must tell your heart "aI111". It's a great movie, because this self-motivation, it really works.

When people put aside their fears and face difficulties, they can maximize their strengths.

Spurs veteran Parker's mentality is not right, he is impatient, whether offensive or defensive, he is constantly putting pressure on himself, hoping to defeat Zhou Xuan and climb over that wall.

Zhou Xuan took advantage of this, deliberately misplaced after the opening of the second half, and then took the ball and dangled on the periphery, attracting Parker to chase the defense, and the ball was assisted by Anderson in the middle to shoot a three-pointer

Parker wanted to return the favor, broke through and forced a layup, and Chandler won the rebound. The Knicks moved a fast attack, and Zhou Xuan assisted Matthews to hit a three-point shot on the right side, quickly reversing the score.

A minute later, Zhou Xuan blocked and passed back to the middle, Scola scored with a mid-range shot, and his assist went up double-double.

Barkley smiled: "Zhou Xuan will definitely get a lot of assists in this game, but it is a little difficult to catch up with Erwin's record of 6 assists in the finals. He had too few assists in the second game, only B. ”

Smith said: "The offensive tempo of the two sides is not very fast, and there are not many points, and in this case, Zhou Xuan's number of assists is already amazing. I think he cares about championships, not assists. ”

The average of 14 assists per game in the finals was also created by Magic, and Zhou Xuan wanted to break his record, unless he scored 2 attacks this time. It's almost impossible for the Spurs to do it right now with his defensive intensity.

The Spurs' strength was inside, with Duncan grabbing a frontcourt rebound in the second half of the third quarter and causing Chandler to foul and make both free throws. Two rounds later, Parker forced a breakaway and drew another Chandler foul, and the best defensive player was substituted off the court with four early fouls.

The Knicks' defense weakened, and Parker and Duncan began to block and dismantle.

Anderson and Bletcher's defensive ability is significantly worse. Relying on the trident offense of Leonard, Parsons, and Zhou Xuan, the Knicks trailed by 7 points and entered the final quarter

In the third quarter, the Knicks lost inside, and the rebounds couldn't grab Duncan and Dio. Duncan grabbed six rebounds in the first quarter and had two points, 14 rebounds and two assists and two blocks in the third quarter, which was a miracle.

Just when Knicks fans were in a hurry, Vicky made a mistake. Or rather, it wasn't a mistake, but he misjudged a player's form and replaced Bamot with Green.

This is to add an offensive point, Bamot can only defend, Green can attract the defense, and help Parker and Duncan better get offensive space. His three-point shot is an important weapon for the Spurs. But in the first three quarters, Green made just 1 of 6 shots.

Green was a little reserved, he didn't have the confidence to dribble the ball, and he passed the ball when he received it. In the first six games, Green was poor in everything except scoring and three-pointers.

Zhou Xuan not only knows his teammates, but also knows his opponents very well. He saw through this and offered to switch Green and handed Parker to Matthews.

Soon, Zhou Xuan made a very bold experiment and let go of Green to wrap Duncan in the high post. Duncan split the ball, and Green missed a three-pointer from the bottom corner. Although Leonard has a rotation position, but it is far away, which can be counted as an open shot miss. Zhou Xuan scored on the basketball with a fast break.

After that, Green missed another simple shot, Zhou Xuan deliberately put him at a distance, let him catch the ball, and then stepped forward to disturb him. Actually 19unetR scoop Green, but this ball is off again.

In the Knicks positional battle, Zhou Xuan played Duncan in a dislocated position, and the dribble under the crotch changed direction to break through successfully, attracting the defense to the periphery, and Matthews hit a three-point shot.

When Green's third shot missed, Vic realized he was in terrible shape and rushed to replace him, but the Knicks had taken the opportunity to recover the difference, and the two sides were back on the same page.
