In the first game of the 2005 NBA Western Conference Finals, the Spurs played away against the Suns, and the two teams had met once in the playoffs before, when Stoudemire was still a rookie, and he has grown into the league's top interior killer in recent years, and the matchup with Duncan is quite interesting! In the first half of the game, Stoudemire, known as the little overlord, was unstoppable on the inside, shooting 7 of 12 in the half and scoring 20 points, but the Spurs played very integrally, leading the Suns by 6 points at halftime, and the Suns suddenly played a 33:23 attack wave in the third quarter, seeing that the victory was about to tilt to the Suns, Barry and Duncan stood up in the fourth quarter, Barry swished on the outside and threw three points, throwing one into one, and shot 13 points in 5 of 5 shots in a single quarter, while Duncan scored 11 points on 5 of 8 shots, in the fourth quarter, The conservative Spurs scored 43 points in a single quarter, thus taking away the victory of the game with 121::114, and the Spurs used such a performance to tell the Sun, Lao Tzu is not that he doesn't play with you, Lao Tzu is afraid that you can't play!

In the whole game, Stoudemire scored 41 points and 9 rebounds on 13-of-21 shooting, living up to the name of the little bully, Steve Nash scored 29 points and handed out 13 assists, Jim Jackson scored 20 points, but none of the other players scored double-doubles, on the other hand, the Spurs played more team, the whole team scored five double-doubles, Parker scored 29 points, Duncan scored 28 points and 15 rebounds, Ginobili scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, and Brent Barry scored 21 points on 8-of-12 shooting on the bench, Horry also had 12 points and seven rebounds as the Spurs took the first game.

In the second game, the Spurs defeated the Suns again 111:108, in fact, the Suns had a chance in the game, but like the previous game, there was still a breath of air at the last moment, Duncan scored 30 points and 8 rebounds, Ginobili scored 26 points on 10-of-18 shooting, Parker scored 24 points, Muhammad and Horry also scored double-doubles, and the Suns Stoudemire once again hit 37 points and 8 rebounds, Nash also scored 29 points and 15 assists, Unfortunately, the perfect performance of the two did not bring a victory to the team.

Phoenix's first two away games were broken by the Spurs, and after returning to San Antonio, the Spurs won the game 102-92 in the third game, Stoudemire and Duncan exploded each other, the former had 34 points and 11 rebounds, the latter had 33 points and 15 rebounds, Nash scored 20 points, Joe Johnson came back to score 15 points, and the Spurs Parker scored 18 points, Ginobili also scored 18 points.

In the fourth game, the Suns finally won a victory, and the whole Suns played very well in this game, with a shooting rate of 57.1%! Stoudemire scored 31 points, Joe Johnson scored 26 points, Nash scored 17 points and 12 assists, and the Spurs, although they also played well, were still willing to kill thieves in front of the rampaging Suns, Ginobili played very well, scoring 28 points and 7 assists, Duncan scored 15 points and 16 rebounds, and Horry also scored 15 points.

Game 5 became the final leg of the series, Duncan scored 31 points and 15 rebounds, Ginobili scored 19 points, Parker scored 18 points, and Stoudemire scored 42 points and 16 rebounds without leaving the victory in Phoenix. Stoudemire averaged 37.0 points, 9.8 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game, while Duncan averaged 27.4 points, 13.8 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.8 blocks per game, but the Spurs team was even better, Ginobili averaged 22.2 points per game, Parker averaged 20.4 points per game, and his super team cohesion and steady style of play made the Spurs a lingering pain in the heart of the Suns after him.

After smiling at the West, the Spurs stood in front of the Finals, and their opponent was the Detroit Pistons that defeated O'Neal and Wade in the tie-break, the Pistons were extremely strong at that time, they knocked out the Los Angeles Lakers who knocked the Spurs out in the Finals last year, won the championship that year, and this year they made a comeback, killing opponents again in the playoffs when they were not favored all the way, and met the Spurs on the floor of the Finals!

The two teams have almost the same style of building, both emphasizing defense, playing the position at a glance, shooting less three-pointers, and trying to impact the inside, Chauncey Billups, Richard Hamilton, Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace were all good first-line stars at the time, others such as Tyshawn Prince, Antonio McDyce and Carlos Arroyo were also good role players, and more importantly, the head coach of the Pistons team back then, is now the mentor of Spurs head coach Popovich, Larry Brown, this Pistons vs. Spurs is destined to be a battle between master and apprentice!

In the first game, both teams sacrificed a strong defense, at this time, there is no doubt that whoever plays better on offense will win the final victory of the game, the Pistons lost their crosshairs under heavy pressure, and only scored a measly 69 points in the whole game, it is obvious that such a performance can not take away the victory, and finally the Spurs defeated the Pistons 84-69 and won the first victory in the finals!

Duncan scored 24 points and 17 rebounds, hit 10 of 22 shots, his offense was strongly defended by Ben Wallace, in the vacancy, Billups's style of play just restrained Parker, the former's big ass top Parker don't want it, Billups scored 25 points, 6 assists and 4 steals, and only 1 turnover, while Parker took 17 shots in exchange for 15 points, 3 assists and 4 turnovers, and the team's winning hero was Ginobili, who has been a highlight in the playoffs. He scored 26 points on 10-of-16 shooting from the field to lead his team to victory.

In the second game, the Pistons' offense picked up, they scored 76 points, but the Spurs scored 97 points in the game, the Spurs established a lead of ten points in the first quarter, and finally maintained it until the end, the Pistons scored four double-doubles, but the highest McDice only scored 15 points, and the key to the Spurs' multi-win is still Ginobili, he scored 27 points and 7 assists on 6-of-8 shooting, and led the team to the final victory alone when Duncan Parker was out of shape!

The third game returned to the home court of the Pistons, they defeated the Spurs 96-79 and won the first victory of the Finals, Hamilton scored 24 points, Billups scored 20 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, Ben Wallace scored 15 points, 11 rebounds, 3 steals and 5 blocks, the performance was perfect, and the Spurs only Parker played well, scoring 21 points in the game, Duncan had a dismal performance, only 14 points and 10 rebounds on 5-of-15 shooting, Ginobili was magically absent, In this game, he only scored 7 points on 2-of-6 shooting, but there were as many as 6 turnovers!

In the fourth game, the performance of the Spurs deteriorated, but the Pistons played a smooth offense, and finally the Pistons slaughtered the Spurs 102-71, Duncan scored a team-high 17 points and 16 rebounds on 5-of-17 shooting, Parker and Ginobili both scored 12 points, and the others did not score double-doubles, while the Pistons scored double-doubles for seven people, can this still win?

After the fifth game, Duncan found Popovich worriedly, saying,

Bobo, Big Ben really deserves his name, his defense is too powerful, these two games were beaten without fighting back, the next game is still on the home court of the Pistons, what should we do?

Popovich smiled and took out a small round aluminum can from his pocket, on which the word "walnut" was faintly engraved.

"Jujube walnut dew? This thing again? Duncan and the generals exclaimed, "Will it be relied on again this year?" ”

"Lao Deng, look carefully, this is an upgraded version of jujube walnut dew!" As he spoke, Popovich showed up the small aluminum box and saw that there were four big words clearly written on it, "six walnuts"!

"I still say the same thing, you have to use your brain to play ball, you have to drink six walnuts!"

……

Compared to the annoying Spurs locker room, the Pistons' locker room is a dead silence, although they have just won two games on home, but it is extremely difficult to win the game on the road, and the Spurs just have the home court advantage, Big Ben found Larry Brown and said,

"Lang Lang, don't look at the Spurs killing us here, but after returning to the home court, they are too powerful, and we have no power to fight back, what should we do?"

"Benben, do you know what I used to do?" Brown said meaningfully, "Lao Tzu used to be a spur, and Popovich and their current general manager Buford are the first generation of Lao Tzu's apprentices, what methods do they use, I don't know?" Popovich must have poured a potion on his players, it's all a routine! ”

Billups leaned over, nodded and said, "yes, yes, I heard Kenyon Martin next door say that Bobo's jujube walnut syrup is amazing......"

Hamilton answered: "I also heard that Martin Kidd couldn't beat Sanlu after drinking the year before last, but last year he was cut by Ma Long's old popsicle, it seems that the old popsicle is still a magic weapon to win!" ”

"We don't have old popsicles," said Brown, glancing at Prince, a third-year rookie who was about to speak, "We only have little fresh milk." ”

"What should this be...... the generals asked.

"Don't worry, since Bobo Na is my apprentice, I must have a magic weapon to win, have you noticed that whether it is jujube walnut dew, Sanlu poisoned milk, or old popsicles are all magic weapons from the East."

"Yes, yes, yes." The generals nodded busily, and everyone wanted to know what Brown could do.

"Since it's the East, then I have an Oriental artifact here! This thing has been standing in the land of China for decades, and the audience has spread from three or five years old to thirty or fifty years old, and they have never forgotten it. ”

"The Sect Master is wise," the general asked,

"What is this artifact?"

“hot pepper strips！”

"What?"

"Commonly known as spicy strips."
