Chapter 187: Popovich: I hate three-point shots! (Update it is coming again, how can there be no monthly pass?) )
Coming back from a timeout, the Spurs replaced Robinson with Marrick Rose.
This substitution, like the first half, was the hardest time for the Spurs.
Originally, Robinson + Rose, one outside and one inside, Duncan + Ferry, one inside and one outside, two time periods, and the presence of two partners was the best.
But now Ferry can't get up, so he can only switch to a combination of Rose and Duncan.
Rose doesn't have mid-to-long-range shooting, which means Duncan can only attack more from near the free-throw line.
This will undoubtedly make his interior deterrent power sharply reduced.
It's true that Duncan's mid-range is still solid, but his interior killing has become weaker.
On the other hand, on the Mavericks' side, Sun Hao's strength on the outside also forced the Spurs to pull out the defense again, which gave Uncle Huo more room to play on the inside.
One decrease and one increase, although Sun Hao's performance was not as strong as the previous paragraph, the Mavericks still played with the Spurs.
At the end of the third quarter, the Mavericks led the Spurs 75-72!
In this quarter, the Mavericks beat the Spurs by 5 points!
This is simply incredible in the absence of Nowitzki.
In the fourth quarter, Kukoc continued to play well, and he scored four more points on a burst shot, and the total score has reached 13 points, becoming the biggest surprise of the Mavericks bench tonight.
However, the Mavericks couldn't pull away from the score this period.
Because of the Spurs, Popovich let Duncan play at the beginning of the first quarter!
The situation in front of him made Popovich not care so much.
This adjustment also sends a message that he is going to finish the game in the sixth game!
The quarter lasted more than five minutes, and the score on the court was 85-82, and the Spurs led the score again.
Nelson Sr. called a timeout, and after the timeout came back, the main players of both sides returned to the court for the final decisive moment.
Popovich stood on the sidelines, his hands on his chest.
A three-point lead wasn't much, but the Spurs had their toughest time.
Now that Robinson is back, the Spurs have a chance to take the game safely.
As long as...... Sun Hao's performance was no longer as frantic as in the third quarter.
In fact, that kind of performance is also difficult to replicate.
The Mavericks' offense, Sun Hao's outside three-point shot was missed.
After the third quarter, the Spurs significantly tightened their perimeter defense against him, and even Duncan stood at the free throw line and was ready to help defend him.
However, Second Uncle Huo grabbed the offensive rebound!
Like in the second half of the third quarter, the Spurs' defensive focus shifted outward, giving Uncle Huo more opportunities to perform!
Second Uncle Huo broke through to the layup and continued to score for the Mavericks!
85 to 84!
The difference is back to 1 point!
The difference between the two sides has not been opened tonight!
At this time, not to mention the fans at the scene, even the fans in front of the TV held their breath.
It was definitely the most intense game of the series, and it was punch-to-flesh.
Duncan turned around and missed the basket, immediately grabbed the second offensive rebound, and then made another shot to cause Bradley's foul.
The stone Buddha is still unstoppable, but when the camera gives a close-up, you can see the obvious rise and fall of his chest.
Ferry can't play, Robinson is old, Duncan has played the most time in the series, and even if he is a stone Buddha, he is starting to get a little tired.
Duncan, after all, is not a real stone!
However, after adjusting his breathing, he still hit both free throws to help the Spurs stretch the score to 3 points again.
Sun Hao ran in a figure-8 position in the front court, and took advantage of the cover of Uncle Huo to shoot three points.
Duncan struggled to save the ball to help defend and give interference, but Sun Hao's rate of fire was still fast, and he shot before his interference.
One of the most obvious advantages of the three-point shot over the interior style of play is that even if the consumption of running is included, the consumption of physical energy is smaller.
It didn't show much in the front, but the advantage came out at the last minute.
"Huh!"
With a crisp sound, Sun Hao's three points were also hit!
This is already his seventh three-pointer in the second half!
The ultimate Mystery Basket Ocean!
"Damn it!"
The ball was thrown, and Popovich, who had been quiet throughout the second half, finally couldn't help but burst into foul language.
He's really, very, very much hated three-pointers right now!
87 flat!
There are still 5 minutes left before the end of the game, and the two sides are standing on the same running line again!
It's the kind of game that is going to be played until the countdown.
The time is getting less and less, but the score difference on the field is always jumping back and forth between 1~3 points, and the players on both sides of each round are red-eyed.
Two minutes before the end, Sun Hao fell in the middle of a run, and after the fall, he looked in pain.
This time, it wasn't a small move, but Harris was so experienced that he asked the old Nelson to call a timeout and immediately asked the team doctor to help.
It's too fierce, and it's cramping in the foot.
Although the physical exertion in the confrontation is not as great as the inside play, Sun Hao's every attack is accompanied by countless runs, and his feet can't hold it first.
Sun Hao was helped to the bench for processing, and the players on both sides were also snorting and panting.
This race is like a marathon.
The finish line is not far away, but they are still neck and neck.
'We have to give a round of applause to this team, maybe tonight's performance is hard to replicate, but they are awe-inspiring.'
In this round of the series, the Spurs staged a game and kill in basketball, but there are always people who can't run away.
It's just that this personal sophistication was won by the Mavericks themselves with performance.
Sun Hao's cramps came back, and the game continued on the field!
The Mavericks sent out the ball on the sideline, Sun Hao continued to run, another figure-8 run, and came out to catch the ball and met Daniels' three-point shot.
"Huh!"
Ball, go in!
His 8th three-pointer of the second half!
“……”
Popovich was already dumbfounded.
Is this a person?
It's really not a person, because Sun Hao's 8 three-point shots have set a new NBA record for the number of three-point shots made in the playoffs in the half!
Duncan's frontcourt offense was sandwiched by a double bag, and Shi Buddha walked an inch, and his shot was a little reluctant to smash the frame!
His physical strength is almost exhausted......
"Bang!"
In the next second, Duncan suddenly burst out, and his long arm directly dunked the ball into the basket!
"Whew!"
Duncan let out a long breath after the dunk.
It's true that his physical strength is running out, but his willpower is still there!
Sun Hao turned around and shot three points again.
His hand was still hot tonight, but even then it was impossible to get in all of them.
Coming back, Duncan pocketed the ball and gave it to Porter from the outside.
Porter made a three-pointer.
"Phew!"
The shot hit the back edge of the basket hard, but it bounced and went in!
94 to 92!
The Spurs took a two-point lead.
There are only 15 seconds left in the race!
Old Nelson called a timeout.
Potter yelled at Sun Hao.
"You can't win! I said, you can't win! ”
In the last game, when Sun Hao abolished Ferry, Potter was very angry.
With this one-point shot, he finally found his chance.
Sun Hao had already walked to the bench, when he suddenly turned around and walked towards Potter.
Potter is also a master who is not afraid of things, and takes the initiative to puff up his chest and prepare to confront Sun Hao.
"That position, I'll finish the game in that position."
Sun Hao didn't make a move, and it would be stupid to be impulsive to be exchanged by the Spurs at this time.
But he said something arrogant to the limitless.
Not only did he want to kill, but he also designated the location of the lore!
At this time, the referee thought that the two were going to clash and came over to separate the two.
Potter cut disdainfully.
You think you're Larry Bird!
Back on the bench, Nelson Sr. was ready to set up his tactics.
"Don, I'm going to shoot the ball, forty-five degrees."
Sun Hao almost used a commanding tone.
The teammates were all taken aback, no one had ever dared to talk to old Nelson like this before, Sun Hao had already killed the red eye.
But what others didn't expect was that old Nelson actually nodded!
Why don't you nod, on the verge of collapse in the second half, it was Sun Hao who used three-pointers to fight the game back!
He has that right.
Coming back from the timeout, the Mavericks made substitutions, with Kukoc coming on for Bradley.
This substitution stunned Popovich.
The Mavericks actually gave up center.
Is this to open up space to play breakthrough tactics?
It's not impossible, it's a 2-point difference on the court, and it's the safest way to get 2 points to play overtime.
The disdain on Potter's face was even stronger, and Sun Hao could only talk about it.
The sideline ball was sent to Sun Hao's hand, and everyone else pulled away.
Sun Hao took the ball to press the time.
Daniels didn't dare to try to steal easily, and after the whole series was played, he knew that Sun Hao's first step was very fast, and it was easy to be passed by rash attacks.
Time passes by second, decreases.
Popovich didn't react at first, but when the time entered the last 6 seconds, the Mavericks hadn't played tactics, he knew what Sun Hao was going to do.
It's about three points!
His judgment has been skewed!
Who would have thought that the Mavericks would end up playing such a risky tactic!
He immediately shouted, motioning for Potter to wrap his bag.
Potter turned and threw himself at Sun Hao.
Sun Hao glanced at Nash, and Potter was forced to retreat again.
Nash's three-point shot is also accurate!
Popovich was stunned when he saw this, and shouted for Potter to wrap it up.
Potter ran over a second time, and it was too late.
Sun Hao's feint to break through to the left, and then pull back the step back under the right crotch.
The position he retreated to was exactly the one Sun Hao pointed to Potter.
"Impossible!"
Potter shouted again, but it was too late.
Sun Hao met Daniels' three-point shot.
"Toot!"
Soon after the ball was shot, the red light on the sidelines was already on.
.home!
One goal, winner or loser.
On the sidelines, including in front of the TV, everyone's hearts rose to their chests.
The Mavericks, really bold, finally chose such a tactic!
But, it's also exciting!
Anyway, at best, it's just a loss!
Sun Hao leaned back slightly and made a three-point shot.
His posture is beautiful.
Even more beautifully, the ball went past Daniels' defense and drew a graceful parabola in the air.
Years later, when Nowitzki recalled the last ball.
"I knew he was going to throw it!"
Even though a long time has passed, the two have been through a lot, but the trust in Nowitzki's eyes has not changed.
"Huh!"
A crunch sound came through the loudspeaker.
The Spurs fans at the scene held their heads in disbelief.
Potter was even more stupid.
94 to 95!
Sun Hao, kill the Spurs!
In the same position he was talking about with Potter.
After the All-Star Three-Point Shooting Contest closed his eyes and broke the record, Sun Hao's pretending career has added a strong stroke!
And it was his ninth three-pointer in the second half!
Three points of rain for one person!
The Mavericks rushed to the court as soon as possible, and the players on the bench also rushed to the court excitedly, including a parkour-style move from Cuban.
Mavericks, really won!
They really won G6 without Nowitzki!
Sun Hao was also running, but instead of rushing to his teammates, he rushed to the front of the technical table with an acceleration.
Behind him were his teammates who were chasing him.
The staff at the technical desk were frightened and didn't know what Sun Hao was going to do.
But the next second they knew.
Sun Hao jumped directly onto the technical platform with a force and shouted directly at the audience.
“Dirk!.for.you!”
The fans who were close to the technical table heard it.
At this moment, they may finally understand why the Mavericks are playing so hard and so crazy tonight.
Because of this moment, Sun Hao called him out.
For Dirk!
Nowitzki also played with his teammates after the game, and although he didn't dare to walk too fast because of his foot injury, he also walked to the technical table at this time.
After hearing Sun Hao shout that sentence in front of him, his smile was full of happiness.
He is really fortunate to have a teammate like Sun Hao.
Photographers on the sidelines also frantically captured this scene.
Nine three-pointers at halftime, missing the home team to win the Spurs, shouted for Dirk.
This is destined to be a classic.
After the game, the two teams had a final handshake.
"It's your night, but I'll win the next one."
Duncan said something like this when he shook hands with Sun Hao.
If it were someone else, it would sound like trash talk, but what came out of Duncan's mouth was a completely different message.
He agreed with Sun Hao's performance tonight, but also expressed his determination.
"I'm looking forward to it."
Sun Hao replied with a smile.
To be able to bring the game back to Dallas, they are already worth it.
As for the tie-break, it was two days later.
He doesn't want to think about that yet.
At the post-game press conference, the Spurs home team was in front of the audience, and the audience was full of reporters.
Popovich's face was bad.
The Spurs definitely didn't stay tonight, although Ferry didn't play, but the Mavericks also let a Nowitzki!
This is the kind of game that Popovich sees as a typical can't lose.
"I hate three-point shots!"
Shortly after the launch began, Popovich couldn't help himself.
"Basketball shouldn't be like this."
"You shoot a three-pointer and the opponent doesn't, and then you win, is basketball supposed to be like this?"
Popovich used affirmatives and rhetorical questions in quick succession.
It can be seen that he was really doubted by Sun Hao's three-point shooting tonight.
But after venting his emotions, Popovich's attitude was once again unexpected when asked about the Mavericks' performance tonight.
"They deserved this victory."
The game is over, and there is no such thing as poisoned milk.
There's only one chance that Popovich will say something like that, and the Mavericks' performance tonight convinced him.
That's the beauty of basketball.
Even opponents who are on the same page will have a moment when they agree with each other.
It's not that basketball doesn't have to play and kill, but there are always people who can't escape.
