1308.Kobe Time (1st Shift)
Take a walk and an assist will be in hand...... Nash usually occasionally envies that when Paul and Kobe Bryant are partnered, there are often passes out of assists every game, but he is not jealous, because, occasionally, he can feel it!
However, Sun Ce's two consecutive three-pointers are simply unreasonable!
Sun Ce scored two three-pointers in a row in the second quarter to help the Grizzlies chase the score to 32-35, only 3 points short!
The effect of "Kobe time" is too awesome, Sun Ce estimates that Kobe himself is not so awesome, as long as he is not hated down, he can successfully shoot, no matter what the posture is crooked, the jump, stability, balance maintenance, etc. are almost not interfered with by defense, as long as the hand feels good, you can enter!
At the beginning of the second quarter on the Spurs' side, they were stupidly pitched by Sun Ce, especially the three veterans who have experienced the "Maddie moment" in the troika, Sun Ce went from a 20 percent shooting rate in 2 out of 10 shots to a shooting rate of more than 40 percent in 6 of 14 shots, which only took more than a minute!
Parker and Guy didn't know how to respond when they heard Sun Ce's words......
At the beginning of the second quarter, only 58 seconds were played, and Popovich called a timeout!
The fans at the scene felt that they needed a box of fast-acting heart pills, it was too sudden!
Counting the 3-minute intermission time, it was less than 5 minutes to play a full game, and Sun Ce relied on his own strength to score 12 points in a row, helping the Grizzlies chase from 20-33 all the way to 32-35!
Sun Ce now gives them the feeling that it is like a Kobe-turned Durant......
……
Popovich, on his part, called a timeout and didn't know what to do.
He's extremely bad at dealing with that, or rather, he's always played "normal" basketball.
There are only extremely creative players under him, only Ginobili, but Ginobili is like an unstable version of Kobe or Jordan, and he wants to fight against Sun Ce, who is estimated to be unable to stop Kobe and Jordan when he explodes, at this age, it is still too difficult for him.
But Popovich has been coaching for so many years and has a lot of experience, and he knows that this time can't be messed up!
At the very least, their offense must be maintained and there must be no unnecessary mistakes.
On the other side of the lineup, the offense is very good, but the defense is poor.
Not knowing how to solve the problem of Sun Ce's outburst, Popovich chose to continue to play steadily.
On the other hand, the Grizzlies didn't know how to expand the advantage brought by Sun Ce's outburst, this time it was too ferocious, and they scored 12 points in more than 1 minute......
At this time, generally speaking, the team should take advantage of the threat played by the explosive players and use the team to extend their advantage, and the average explosive star will also choose to do this, because at this time, the opponent will definitely be strict on the defensive end, and very few stars can ensure continuity in this situation.
But...... He's a little bully!
This is a player who can score 72 points in a single game, and has scored 40+ times in just 4 years of his career, which is the strongest player in the league when Kobe Bryant is aging year by year.
Coach Hollins was eager to use the threat posed by Sun Ce to string the team's offense together, but ...... When Sun Ce broke out, he could score more points than the rest of the team combined!
Once again, Coach Hollins felt the troubles of bliss...... It's also a bad thing to have a player who is too strong to explode......
Thinking about it, Coach Hollins knocked on the tactical board and said to the five people around him: "The other party will definitely ensure the continuity of the offense, and we must also ensure the continuity of the offense." ”
Nash, Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Jimmy Butler, and Yi Jianlian all felt that Coach Hollins had a point.
Sun Ce was about to listen to how Coach Hollins would lay out the coping strategy next, and it was right for them to control the specific details, but the general direction was pointed out by Coach Hollins.
But...... Coach Hollins didn't say anything after he finished speaking!
Looking at Coach Hollins with "I've arranged it, you guys will do it" written on his face, Sun Ce felt that everyone in his team didn't seem to be very reliable!
……
After the timeout, the Spurs replaced Parker and Ginobili's strongest guard line, and Gay, Dio, and Kwame Brown came up to strengthen defensive mobility and enhance the impact under the basket.
The Spurs players are still very confident, and after Guy adjusted, Yi Jianlian, who received the ball from the baseline and retreated to avoid the defense, scored two points on a jumper.
The Spurs still maintain a five-point lead, and they are still ahead, but they just have to carry through the Grizzlies' chasing the points and wait until Duncan comes back from a rest.
Offense and defense transitioned, and the Grizzlies attacked.
Coach Hollins was still hesitating whether to use Sun Ce's threat or continue to let Sun Ce play, Nash did not hesitate, and instructed Sun Ce to go to the right high post to receive the ball with his back, and hang Sun Ce to continue playing singles!
Although Popovich didn't know how to deal with the opponent's unexpected outburst, he was very experienced and had strong coaching ability, and guessed that the opponent might use the threat played by the outburst player to drive other players to attack, so he chose to target Yi Jianlian's cut and Klay Thompson's shot.
If you are an ordinary coach, you may make a wrong judgment.
But the poor version of Zen master Huo Bald didn't arrange a specific way to play at all, and Nash now puts his hope on Sun Ce!
Sun Ce relied on Guy to receive the ball, and directly turned over and threw a jumper......
Guy wanted to interfere with his reach, but he slapped Sun Ce's wrist when Sun Ce threw it!
With the referee's whistle, Sun Ce turned over and hit a jumper in a high position, and the goal was effective and a penalty was added.
It's so simple and rude, "Kobe Bryant time", Sun Ce is out of the sky!
It's a pity that Sun Ce quickly retreated from the defense, and Parker, who received a pass after Kwame Brown grabbed a defensive rebound, was about to collapse.
What kind of player is this?
After four years of fighting, he still can't see through Sun Ce!
37-34, the Spurs still have a 3-point lead, Parker concentrates and maintains offensive firepower, which is the only thing he can do now, and he can't stop him, so his defense is okay, and it doesn't matter much about it.
Parker borrowed Dio's block back pass to Dio, and Dio showed excellent high post playmaking, sharing the ball to Kwame Brown to eat cake and score two points.
The three ball-type combinations of Parker + Guy + Ginobili contain the defense in the middle distance, and Dio's high pass is indeed a bit incomprehensible.
But Sun Ce doesn't care at all, there is still one goal in "Kobe Bryant time"!
He has scored 20 points on 7-of-15 shooting, and he still wants to keep shooting!
Directly on the outside line, he leaned on Guy to ask Nash for the ball, Nash decisively passed to Sun Ce, Sun Ce received the ball and shook a shot, Guy jumped up like a frightened bird, Sun Ce took the opportunity to break through!
Guy was passed away all of a sudden, Ginobili and Dior didn't have time to make up for the defense, but fortunately, there was Kwame Brown under the basket! Nothing else, Kwame Brown is very good at guarding the basket!
