Chapter 181: Arenas' Revenge

Arenas' stunning offense and defense made Spurs fans laugh, but they weren't amazed, they were nervous, and the fact that this guy who looked like a street thug in Los Angeles was actually suppressing the hero of their last game on this land, which made them angry and scared.

That's when Ginobili really realized that anyone in this basketball kingdom is not to be underestimated, and you never know what will happen in the next second, even if you think that person is your loser.

Ginobili began to face Arenas seriously, the Spurs' system did not allow him to play Arenas alone, but this does not mean that he can't play directly with Arenas, Ginobili after a year of getting along, or found some Popovich's bottom line. It's okay to play a sideline once in a while.

Ginobili and Parker are hand-to-hand, both of them are people with outstanding speed, this kind of cross running is very annoying, Arenas and Houston made a change of defense, Houston went to defend Parker, Arenas found Ginobili.

Ginobili instantly made a coquettish back-hitting pass and handed the ball back into Parker's hands.

After being easily passed by Parker, Houston changed his defense against Parker, who is currently shooting poorly and has a slow pull-up jump shot, and Houston directly let go of his two-step distance.

Parker hesitated, mid-distance?

In the past two years at the Spurs, his mid-range shooting ability has made great progress, but when the opponent let go of him so far away, he lost confidence in himself first. Amid Popovich's invectives off the court, Parker passed the ball and he handed it to David Robinson, who pulled it out.

It's true that the general's strength has declined very much, but the general is always the general. After receiving the ball, he turned and attacked directly with the frame.

Wallace went up, but before Wallace's feet could stand firmly, the admiral had already started, and he directly changed direction, and his body jumped forward violently, directly impacting the basket.

Dale Davis wanted to make up for it, but the general made another light turn and passed the opponent, and the Knicks were already empty under the basket.

For a basketball player, the admiral is already an old man, but the admiral's face frame offense is still strong.

David Robinson's series of actions also made him breathe a sigh of relief, which is what he is most proud of, and now, he can still do it, just when he was thinking about how to smash the basketball into the basket in the coolest way, Robinson completed the turning action, but he felt a light in his hand, which was by no means a familiar feeling for him, listening to the shouts of his teammates around him, Robinson realized that he was stealed. Although Robinson passed Wallace, Wallace's chasing ability was too strong, Wallace turned around on the spot, and just bumped into the moment Robinson turned around, he didn't want to, just slapped it out, and directly pulled Robinson's ball down.

The Knicks defended successfully again, and Wallace launched a fast break on the spot, first finding Arenas with a half-long pass, and then Arenas flicked forward to Houston while accelerating to the frontcourt.

When Houston received the ball, Arenas passed through the midfield, and Houston made another pass, aiming straight at the three-point line.

Arenas catches the ball, but he has too much momentum and rushes to the three-point line.

Arenas seemed to feel that his position seemed to be within the three-point line, his brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't care, so he just stopped and shot a jumper.

However, for Saint Seiya, the same moves don't work.

Ginobili had been running down the middle to his backcourt, and he had already guessed what Arenas was going to do when Houston passed the ball, because it was the same as his three-pointer just now. Ginobili took two steps forward, and despite the imbalance of his body, he just spun and threw himself into the air, Ginobili's fingertips touched the basketball, and Arenas's shot was reversed.

With a "dang", Arenas hit the basket.

However, the Knicks' fast break was too fast, the rest of the Spurs had not returned, and Ginobili had just landed, and this frontcourt rebound was actually picked up by Houston, who picked up the ball and made a jumper directly under the basket.

The Knicks relied on defensive counter-attacks to score two more points.

Everything that happened was contrary to what the two coaches thought, Popovich felt that although the Spurs' lineup did not have Duncan on the court, there was no mercy on the other side, and it could even be counted as half a catty and eight taels, and they were eight taels; And George Karl believes that there must be a bad fight between the Knicks and the Spurs, especially on the offensive end, the defensive ability of the Spurs' lineup is really strong, but what they didn't expect was that now it was the Knicks who relied on defense to suppress the Spurs.

Parker was a little agitated, he was like a confused fly on the field.

But there was a headless fly on the Spurs.

David Robin Xu's best offensive style was defended, which touched his heart very much, and he was already frustrated by being beaten by Mo Xi in the last game, and today, just now, he was stealed by Rasheed Wallace, which is just, for him this is simply an unspeakable pain.

Popovich got up from his chair, but he didn't call a timeout, he was going to see the situation again.

Parker was a little flustered, but Ginobili was different, the Pampas Eagles, who had truly single-handedly brought the team to the highest level in Europe, had a real big heart.

He used Malik Rose's cover to throw Houston away, and came directly to the 45-degree three-point line, after receiving Parker's pass, he directly cut to the bottom line and cooperated with David Robinson, but some of the depressed Robinson had no desire to attack, he directly stuffed the ball to the middle and gave it to Parker, who cut in.

Parker didn't make a move, and again distributed the ball to Ginobili, who ran to the 45-degree three-point line on the other side.

Ginobili jumped slightly, received the ball in the air and turned around, and after landing, the whole person was just outside the three-point line, Ginobili bent his knee down, and then bounced up sharply and shot a three-point shot.

With a "huh~", the basketball fell into the basket cleanly, which was Ginobili's response to Arenas.

The Knicks served quickly, Arenas' eyes suddenly lit up, and the Spurs slacked off.

Arenas accelerated suddenly, he directly elbowed Parker, and rushed towards the front court with all his might, the Spurs were slow to defend this time, and many people were still in the middle circle, even Ginobili, and there was only one Malik Rose in the backcourt.

This one Malik Rose is not enough to see, and Arenas squeezed Parker out and rushed straight to the frontcourt.

Because Arenas' speed had already risen, it was too late for the Spurs to start chasing Arenas, and Arenas rushed all the way to the Spurs' basket.

Ginoby reacted first, and he immediately started and followed Arenas, but he still didn't start fast enough to seem like he couldn't catch up with Arenas.

At this time, the experienced Malik Rose made a smart defensive choice, he retreated to the basket before the penalty area, looked at Arenas, looking at this posture, he was preparing to make Arenas an offensive foul, Malik's position organized the possibility of Arenas direct layup, but in this position, Arenas is likely to be caught up by Ginobili again if he intends to make a pull-up jump shot.

Arenas's face turned hideous, what kind of joke did he think he would be able to kill me in this way?

Arenas was a little faster, but the movement of his hands changed, Arenas directly received the ball to his waist, and the three-step basket was directly launched.

Malik Ross froze, and the crucial blow came!

Just when Malik Rose was preoccupied, Arenas had already made a move, and his arm was directly pushed upwards and thrown!

Spurs legend "Iceman" George Gervin's famous stunt has once again appeared in the Spurs' arena.

Parker is also a good thrower, but his throws are more casual and not particularly high, unlike Arenas's ball, which is almost more than rebounding.

It is said that when George Gervin practiced throwing, he let people hold a big broom, hold it up, and block the front of the basket, George Check's throws are almost always near the top edge of the rebound, once he makes a throw, no one can stop it at all, and he also relied on this trick to become the first three-game scoring champion after the NBA restructuring.

Seeing the reappearance of the stunts of the past, the old Holy City fans shivered when they didn't come.

"Manu!" Popovich shouted loudly from the sidelines as he held out two fingers to Ginobili while his left hand was secretly clenched in a circle around his waist.

The Spurs will be stunned, this tactic? Isn't it?

The Spurs slowly pulled the formation apart, and Parker dribbled the ball past half court and handed it directly to Ginobili, who was standing on the right side of the arc.

The Spurs opened up a singles zone for Ginobili, something that is basically impossible to turn over in the Spurs' playbook, but he showed up.

Arenas walked over with a determined gaze and switched defenses with Houston, who hesitated for a moment but chose to agree.

one on one!

Although it is not the king to see the king, but it is also a general, and under the lineup of the two sides, the most-for-tat point is really right.

Arenas clumsily lowered his center of gravity while relaxing his steps and staring at Ginobili's shoulders, which was a good defense he could do.

In the face of such a defense, Ginobili began to attack, first dribbling left and right in small increments, then increasing the change of direction, and gradually raising the height of the dribble almost to shoulder height. Ginobili dribbled the ball and pressed forward in small increments.

With Ginobili closing in, Arenas had to keep stepping back to make sure he was in a proper defensive position.

Arenas' defense is almost always coached by Ward, but Ward's defense can only be described as tough, and it is far from the standard of a master.

Ginobili quickly saw the flaw in Arenas's defense, and it was another quick big change of direction, only this time, Ginobili's wrist had more movements, Ginobili's wrist pulled suddenly, and the ball was pulled back from the midline of his body, and then the wrist turned again, and it was another change of direction, but this time the change of direction was really a change of direction.

Arenas didn't react at all, he was completely passed by Ginobili, he kept retreating, he didn't have the luxury of blocking Ginobili, he just wanted to interfere when the opponent made a move.

But Ginobili doesn't even seem to give him a chance to let Arenas catch the corner of his clothes, and Ginobili walks in Europe.

Ginobili's flickering left and right shape finally drove Arenas crazy, and Arenas pounced in the opposite direction, and Ginobili scored a layup to score two points for the Spurs.

Arenas, who had scored a goal, gritted his teeth tightly. Arenas, who suffered this humiliation, was not willing to put up, and he dribbled the ball through the half court to find Ginobili.

Ginobili relied on feints and changes of direction to break through, while Arenas purely relied on the savage impact of his body to break through, not that Arenas's breakthrough was not skillful, but Arianas's style was more direct, without fancy, which made people look happy.

Arenas directly forced Ginobili, Ginobili stretched out his long arm and almost poked the ball away, but Arenas relied on his upper body strength to forcibly protect the ball.

It may seem like Arenas' offense is reckless and overdone, but in reality, Arenas has taken advantage of the savage rush to his favorite area, where he is handy for both layups and shots.

Arenas started violently again, and although Ginobili reacted, because of the impact of Arenas just now, he couldn't change his body immediately, and Arenas cut to the baseline and attacked the basket from the baseline.

With a slight flick of his wrist in the air, Arenas raised his arm and a small lever dodged Robinson's arm, then raised his hand and sent the basketball into the basket.

The battle between Arenas and Ginobili is very intense, for the Knicks and the Spurs, whether it is Arenas or Ginobili, both of them have obvious incompatibility with the two teams, but their combination is so natural.

After more than six minutes in the second quarter, Duncan and Mo Xi were able to return to the court, and at this time, Arenas and Ginobili, who did not score a point in the first quarter, had scored 12 and seven points respectively, Arenas faintly suppressed this Ginobili, after all, Ginobili needs to take care of the whole team, and Arenas, as long as he plays happily, it is enough.
