1312. Beyond Kojo! (5th Update)
Duncan didn't say much, just dunked Gasol Jr., and immediately turned the ball again, and it was Parker who caught the ball...... Parker has played 70 games so far this season, making a total of 29 three-pointers, and Beverley has stepped back to prevent a breakthrough and is ready to hit Parker at Parker's acceleration, and fouls don't matter.
But Parker picked up the ball on the sideline and chose to shoot!
Big heart, don't be afraid of things! And...... It's also in!
This is forcing the troika into a hurry!
Duncan's turnaround and backhand slam just now is definitely not the style of play he is good at now, and Parker's three-point shooting is naturally not, but the Grizzlies have a good defense, and they chose what they are not good at, but they just threw in.
96-100, the Spurs continued to bite the score!
If you can't prevent it, you will try your best to defend it, and in the process of retreating, the Spurs will communicate with each other, Guy will defend three points, Duncan will block the middle distance, and Dio will not care about Batile or Gasol Jr., and will directly prepare to break through with Sun Ce.
Sun Ce has already scored 59 points, and with Sun Ce's 36 shots tonight with only 4 assists, he is about to score 60 points, and they estimate that Sun Ce will definitely not pass the ball when he already has a chance to shoot.
If it's a direct pinch, they feel that Sun Ce will definitely pass back, this is a player who is willing to score in the single digits and also wants to create a chance to win.
Therefore, Duncan did not command his teammates to pinch in advance, but prepared to pinch Sun Ce's shot again when Sun Ce arrived at the shooting point.
Duncan has a clear mind, excellent defensive awareness, and a strong execution from the Spurs.
However, after Sun Ce dunked just now, he scored two shots at the beginning of the quarter, and the last shot in the third quarter...... For the second time in this game, he scored three goals in a row when Kobe Bryant's time was not triggered, and Kobe Bryant's time was triggered!
Sun Ce received the serve by himself and pressed 8 seconds to violate the half, passed the middle circle, and directly began to accelerate!
The Spurs responded quickly and moved in time, but they were still rushed to the right side of the three-second zone by Sun Ce, and when Duncan blocked it, Sun Ce pulled the ball behind him, took a step out to the right, and turned around at a 30-degree angle to shoot from a long distance to the bottom line!
This step allowed Sun Ce to directly get rid of Duncan and Guy's encirclement!
And two skills are triggered!
"Trigger for back dribbling and turning and shooting level 1 (Irving), the host will not be affected by the sudden turn of the shot jump......"
"Kobe Bryant's time is triggered at level 3, and the host's shooting impact is greatly reduced due to the rhythm......"
This area is the area where Sun Ce's shooting is the most stable, and Kobe's strongest is naturally the mid-range shot, if it is a negative bonus, the shooting ability will be affected, and the impact on Sun Ce will be great, because he is used to his quasi-top mid-range shot, but if it is a bonus, he will use it better, because he is one of the best mid-range players on the right side of the three-second zone in the league!
With the jump unaffected and the shooting feeling unaffected, after dribbling behind his back to avoid Guy and Duncan's sandwich, Sun Ce's long two-point hit!
23 of 38 shots! Among them, 6 of 12 three-pointers and 9 of 11 free throws, Sun Ce has 61 points! 60+ for the 5th time in his career, and the second place in 60+ times in a single season!
102-96, the Grizzlies still maintain a lead of more than 5 points!
However, for the game, Sun Ce has already won 60+, and the Spurs' obsession in their hearts is gone, and they want to win even more!
Sun Ce is 60+ in a single game, and they are still only 6 points behind, which means that they played very well today, and their strength is not lost to the Grizzlies.
Now it's about grinding, it's about bearing!
The Spurs had a strong desire to win, calmly running and sharing the ball, and the Grizzlies defended very hard, eager to defend their opponents when Sun Ce guaranteed to score.
In the end, the ball from the Spurs' side still reached Parker, and Beverley still didn't make up for it, and Danny Green was empty after making up for it.
Beverley defends like a mad dog, but has excellent defensive awareness, and putting Parker in the defensive strategy is an important part of their ability to prevent the Spurs, and it is only when Duncan's physical strength is poor and the blocking effect is declining that they have the opportunity to limit the rest of the Spurs.
Parker had just scored a three-pointer and took a decisive shot after receiving the ball...... But luck can't always be so good, Parker has made 30 three-pointers this season, creating the sixth-highest single-season three-point shooting in a career, and it's probably over, this ball is iron!
Sun Ce threw himself into the air to grab the defensive rebound and counterattacked directly!
Shooting! With the ball in his hand, Sun Ce only had this thought, rushed to the front court, and when Danny Green pounced, he directly chased down and shot a three-point shot......
As soon as the ball was thrown, Sun Ce was knocked to the ground by Danny Green, who was saved, and the ball went into the basket at the same time as the referee's whistle......
105-96, the Grizzlies extended their lead to 9 points, and Sun Ce also added a free throw!
Compared with Sun Ce's 60+, the fans at the scene were even more excited when the ball was thrown!
For the first time!
For the first time this season, the Grizzlies have a chance to lead the Spurs by 10 points!
Sun Ce was pulled up by Beverley and Paul George and walked to the free throw line.
The fans at the scene cheered wildly, and even the MVP call couldn't be neat.
No way, this season was suppressed by the Spurs too badly, and the win was not as much ahead of the Spurs.
Sun Ce adjusted his breathing and hit the penalty again!
24-of-39 shooting, 8-of-13 three-pointers, and 10-of-12 free throws, while helping the team extend the lead to 10 points, Sun Ce's personal score increased to 65 points!
Spurs call a timeout!
……
Three offenses, the Spurs actually only have Duncan's strong play as a regular score, Duncan just broke out of the style of play when he was young, characterized by Duncan's own characteristics, and Parker's ball, pure luck.
In other words, in the first three attacks of the Spurs at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Spurs did not play a single successful attack when Duncan was unable to run and block and cut in!
It's not that Duncan doesn't play well and there are others, the Spurs are the overall style of play, and if there is a pit in one ring, the whole will be pitted.
Duncan's performance is still good now, but compared to the performance of the league's most powerful forward this season, it is definitely far from it, and in the face of the purely defensive lineup sent by the Grizzlies, it is obviously not enough!
And on the other side there is a lord who has gone crazy!
Only played 3 minutes in the fourth quarter, and there were 9 minutes left, Sun Ce had 65 points, and with Sun Ce's crazy performance of 25 points in a single quarter in the third quarter, Popovich didn't know how, and thought of Kobe Bryant, who scored 55 points in less than 20 minutes in the second half after the Raptors trailed by 14 points at halftime!
Obviously, because Duncan fought too hard in the first half, the offensive and defensive ends of the final quarter could not guarantee the level of one team, let alone one team, and the second team was not enough.
In this case, Sun Ce was full of feelings, and their Spurs were 10 points behind...... Popovich chose to give up!
