At the beginning of the last quarter, Zhang Xiaotian appeared on the court with a rotating lineup as usual.

At this time, the Nuggets made a strange decision, they replaced the veteran Richard Jefferson, who had not played before, with Zhang Xiaotian as the main defender.

It's not impossible to say that defensive experience is not impossible, but Zhang Xiaotian is not a player who can be defended by experience at all.

Bullying veterans and rookies, in competitive sports, everyone is under no pressure.

The time it took Zhang Xiaotian to lead the team to overtake the score was only 1 minute and 34 seconds.

The Nuggets didn't adjust right away, because they have the current lineup, and Moodier is playing well.

Their bench lineup in this game was really good, although there was no match, but Moodier directly and Zhang Xiaotian soared four mid-range shots, which helped the Nuggets bite the score and survive the half quarter.

Nuggets coach Mike Malone suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment in strategizing, and with a big wave of his hand, he replaced all the main players, and the time came to make a final decision.

He probably thinks that Zhang Xiaotian has been consumed by the rotation lineup, and their main players have been well rested, sometimes taking the Spurs.

However, it backfired, and after the Nuggets' main lineup came up, they played a few irons, but Zhang Xiaotian was still as stable as a dog.

Although Gary Harris defended well, he did not limit Zhang Xiaotian, and the Nuggets' help defense was not good.

They switched to playing inside, and Jokic hit two.

But the Spurs already led by seven points, and Jokic struggled to catch up with the score on the inside.

10 points is not a problem for some teams, but it is not easy for many teams to chase 5 points.

Then time passed, and they began to hurry.

The Nuggets have increased their shots from beyond the three-point line, but the Spurs have been guarding against them.

As a result, instead of exploding on the offensive end, the Nuggets were beaten by the Spurs and scored two three-pointers.

By the time Jamal Murray hit a three-pointer, the Nuggets were powerless, and the Spurs had won the home court by 11 points.

January is over, and Spurs' results are not experienced, but certainly good.

February is a game that has been of great concern to the outside world, with the Spurs hosting the Rockets.

The Spurs didn't start the game well and lost the last three points.

After losing to the Rockets, the Rockets and the Spurs are only one win away, and the distance between the Spurs and the Warriors is only one win, and the competition for the top three in the West can be described as extremely fierce.

The Spurs are going to play the Jazz next, and it's another head-to-head game, and if they lose, they could fall to third.

The Spurs restrained the Jazz last season, but this season the Jazz have changed their core, but they are not afraid of the Spurs.

This time, Mitchell had a small problem and could not play, and it stands to reason that the Spurs have an absolute advantage.

Unexpectedly, there was a problem in the opening game, and Rubio scored 14 points on six of six shots.

Shooting has never been Rubio's specialty, and his shooting has improved slightly since coming to the Jazz, but not to the point where the Spurs are specifically guarding.

As a result, this guy came up with a hundred three-point shots, and he was caught off guard by the Spurs.

On the court, he didn't play well at the beginning and lost, this time Zhang Xiaotian didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and directly began to exert his strength.

Fortunately, Aldridge feels good, and the attack power of the Spurs' three strong points has also been brought into play.

As a result, two teams with good defense fought against each other desperately on the field.

Lu Yuanwai may have been hanging up today, and in the second quarter, the Spurs have already paid attention to him, and the shooting rate is still 100%, fortunately, he doesn't shoot a lot, otherwise this game would not have been played.

Of course, it's a joke that the game is not played, Rubio's biggest threat is the organization, and the Spurs can't just defend his shots, if they have often let him shoot before.

Players in the number one position feel crazy, especially players who are good at organizing, it's really hard to guard.

** Vicky is very calm, telling the players to limit other points, Rubio is to try not to give him an open opportunity to shoot, and then force the opponent on the offensive end.

The Jazz are missing Mitchell, and if the Spurs can't press the opponent on the offensive end, they can also hang themselves up.

But the Jazz's three-point shot today is a bit of a, not just Rubio.

Fortunately, the Spurs' defense is still very strong, and they did not let the opponent shoot easily.

was choked enough by the rocket in front, and it can be regarded as vigilant.

In the third quarter, the Spurs' Rubio's defense went up another notch.

Now Rubio can finally only organize honestly, he is not a particularly good attacking player, and it is not so difficult to lock him down.

With one less outside point, the Spurs' offense is clearly superior to the opposition.

The Spurs once overtook it, but after Zhang Xiaotian went down to rest, the Jazz's bench players hit three consecutive points to turn the score back.

Unlike last season, Hood's sixth-man play has given the Jazz more firepower, and the player's mid-to-long-range shooting is much stronger.

Time came to the last quarter, and it was time to decide whether it was a winner or a winner.

Both sides are taking this game very seriously, the Spurs don't want to lose in a row, and the Jazz want to cherish every win, and the top eight in the West is fiercely competitive, and the Jazz are also part of the team contending for a playoff spot.

After Hayward left, the Jazz didn't have a forward that could stand up to Xiaotian, so they came up in the fourth quarter and hit directly.

Zhang Xiaotian was even more crisp, splitting the ball directly to Danny Green, who hit a three-pointer.

Rubio is not easy to defend today, Zhang Xiaotian belongs to the type that is not good to defend every day, not only the ability to pass the ball, but also when needed, he can also force the score against the defense.

In less than a minute, Jazz head coach Quin Schneider could see that something was wrong.

He hurriedly replaced Joe Ingles and Gopott, or Ingles in front, and Gopott was in it to help defend in order to create some trouble for Zhang Xiaotian.

And Ingles is also a little consumed Zhang Xiaotian on the offensive end, but he can't keep up with his footsteps.

Coach Schneider was also decisive, taking advantage of the fact that the team still had a slight advantage, and hurried to work hard.

Jazz is on the main lineup, Zhang Xiaotian is indeed not so easy after hitting the inside, but he still has no problem with opening the ball, the key is that he also has a perverted shooting rate on the outside.

He first used his footwork to avoid the defense and shoot one directly, and then broke through the ball twice, and even if the Jazz knew that he was likely to score, it was impossible not to help the defense.

It's the same as defending James, there's no way.

The other side also knows that if you want to win the Spurs, you must definitely keep up on the offensive end.

The Jazz's offense was really good today, with Rubio scoring five points in a row and hitting a three-pointer from his teammates.

The scores of the two sides were deadlocked, and in the second half of the final quarter, both sides had to come up with lineups at key moments.

In the No. 1 position, Vicky thought carefully and chose Evans.

Murray is doing a better job defensively, but in the final moments, the old man still has to attack, and Danny Green is also there, and the Spurs are all big and four small when they have to fight.
