The Jazz held the lead for most of the court, but it was the Spurs who won in the end.

George Hill sighed this season: "They played better in crunch time, they had Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard, and we fell short. ”

This game also made Leonard see clearly the aspects where Zhang Xiaotian is better than him.

Back on the training ground, Leonard naturally worked harder, but there was less direct competition with Zhang Xiaotian.

In any case, Zhang Xiaotian still suits his appetite, and he is very satisfied with the team's operation in the summer from the beginning, and perhaps the best choice is to combine the parts that the two are good at to create an invincible Spurs.

On November 4th, the Spurs went to the away game to play the Jazz again, and after being wary, the game was completely one-sided.

The Jazz without Hayward are too far behind the Spurs after all, and the Spurs have taken the initiative from the beginning, and the Jazz have no chance from beginning to end.

With six wins in a row, the team may need to run in, but the strong teams don't need to play 100 per cent to win the game.

Those who plan to watch the excitement outside have to admit that Zhang Xiaotian is fully capable of leading the team.

The combination of him and Leonard, just like he and James at the beginning, can suppress opponents on both offensive and defensive ends.

In the fast-paced era of small ball, cooperation between All-Star level players is actually easier than before.

But Spurs' winning streak didn't continue either, and after the double win over the Jazz, they lost back-to-back away games.

It was the Clippers who interrupted the Spurs' winning streak, and the Clippers have a good lineup every year, but the playoffs are still missing a ruthless character who can determine the situation.

The Clippers were also willing to spend money in the summer, but instead of pulling players from the outside, the money was mainly spent on contract extensions.

They have two more tens of millions of players, Crawford is worth the price, the prince's words belong to giving face to the head coach, and the father and son are in battle.

The key to this Spurs is that Aldridge was blown up by Griffin, Griffin scored 26 points in the half, and the Spurs also took the initiative to surrender.

** Vicky is this kind of character, and when he sees that the situation is not too good, he will not let the team go to the hardest.

Therefore, the Spurs have always won in the regular season, and those who can't win are not reluctant, and the health of the players rarely has major problems, and the results are also good.

But in the playoffs, this habit still has an impact.

After all, the ones who can adjust their state are also All-Star level players, and other players are used to giving up when they can't win, and sometimes they still lack some blood.

That is to say, the prestige of ** Vicky is enough, and when you need to fight hard, you can also serve with an order.

Otherwise, the Spurs will not be so smooth.

The Spurs broke the golden body, is it not good, there will naturally be a team test.

When they return to their home court, they will be challenged by the Rockets.

Zhang Xiaotian has a lot of fans on the other side of the ocean, and the same is true for the Rockets.

This season, the Rockets used a second-round pick to select Zhou Qi, a player from the other side of the ocean, although he has not yet been recruited, but the attention is undoubtedly higher.

The Rockets have changed a lot of blood in the summer, sending away Howard, and Harden has become the only core.

Judging by the start, the combat effectiveness of the rocket did not suffer.

The Pelicans duo in free agency, Gordon and Ryan Anderson, are doing well, and young interior Capela has also shown tactical potential to replace Howard, plus veteran Nene, the Rockets' interior line has not had problems because of Howard's departure.

On the Spurs' side, Danny Green returned, but Parker was sidelined due to injury.

Mills replaced the starter, but this buddy is not the material of the organization, and the burden is on Zhang Xiaotian.

Zhang Xiaotian also took the initiative to ask for help, and his current skills to undertake organizational tasks can indeed improve the strength of the team.

Parker's strength has declined, and Vicky knows in his heart that although he believes in the old man, as a wise coach, he is also thinking of a way.

That's why he decided to let Zhang Xiaotian give it a try, if he could, the lineup changes in the future could be more flexible, and the two inside lines could go directly to Danny Green on the outside line without using the No. 1 position.

Or maybe when you need to defend, one big or four is not as good as Parker, after all, players like the Cavaliers and Warriors, the No. 1 position is too strong, and Parker can't withstand it now.

The Rockets are typical of strong offense and weak defense, and they launched a fierce attack at the beginning of the game.

The Spurs began to want Aldridge to play, but this guy didn't feel good this time, and he hit the ball on several shots.

The Spurs had no choice but to change their strategy, letting Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard play with the ball, and by the way, looking for opportunities on the outside.

The second position of the Rockets is Brewer and Ariza, and the single defense ability is definitely there.

However, it is not realistic to limit Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard in a single defense, and Capela has the ability to assist in defense on the inside, but the mastery of timing needs to be improved.

Capela is very flexible and has a good ability to finish the ball.

The main players of both sides actually played a similar role, and it was the bench that decided the winner.

The Spurs' role players are not bad, but they are inconsistent in delivery, and the Spurs don't have players who came up to dominate the rotation when Ginobili was at his peak.

However, Gordon, the sixth man of the Rockets, was extremely attacking, and in the first quarter of the battle, the Spurs fell behind.

But in the second quarter, Aldridge's touch recovered slightly, and it was the Spurs who had the upper hand.

Spurs have never been a pure outside team, and if the tactics are to be played, the inside and outside must be well combined.

The three of them are strong, and the rockets will definitely not be able to prevent them.

At halftime, both teams scored a lot, and the Rockets temporarily led by three points.

To deal with the Rockets, you must limit Harden, but Harden's organizational ability is also very good, in the first half several pinch shots let the opponent score the ball, looking at players who are not particularly physical, it is very troublesome to defend.

Thankfully, Danny Green has made a comeback and the trouble can be left to him.

Zhang Xiaotian can also be prevented, but Harden is too slippery and not slippery, and the consumption of defense is relatively large, and the Rockets' No. 4 Ryan Anderson is all shot outside, which is no different from one big and four small, and the Spurs have also adjusted to one big and four small according to the opponent's lineup.

After both sides were more focused in the third quarter, the scoring efficiency became worse.

At this time, the Spurs with more strong points are relatively advantageous, but Aldridge is in repeated states, so he can only let Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard take his time.

Zhang Xiaotian is not in a hurry or impatient, now he is not strong in his ability to explode, but when it comes to the end, it is his world.

The Rockets are no strangers to him, and although Harden rested at the beginning of the fourth quarter, he did not relax his defense against Zhang Xiaotian.

In fact, if you are serious, the rockets can be prevented, but they are very persistent because of tactical problems.

And how difficult it is to guard against Zhang Xiaotian, one of the two balls can be said to be a star ball, and two of the three balls, this is basically the answer sheet handed over by Zhang Xiaotian under strict defense, and the current Zhang Xiaotian is not afraid of pinching.

The Rockets want to win on defense, which is unreliable. 'Reading a book and finding the latest chapters on your own?' You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
