Chapter 94: Tough Bones

Zhang Xiaotian has been paying attention to Harden, and in the last moments of the game, he usually pays attention to the opponent's Hexi players, so as soon as Harden breaks through, he quickly makes up for the defense and blocks Harden's shooting line.

I just didn't expect the other party to shoot and threw the ball out.

Duncan's back to the basket was a little slower after all, Asik jumped up a little to put the ball a little, and the basketball bounced and fell into the basket.

With just five seconds left in the game, the Rockets took the lead again at 96:95.

The ball went in, and the Rockets players were also excited, and a bunch of people on the bench roared.

The Spurs called a timeout because it was a one-point difference, and the tactics of the final shot were more varied.

It can be said that all five people on the Spurs court have the ability to kill, and the Rockets do not dare to take anything lightly.

I have to say that at this time, the one-on-one marking rocket did a good job.

None of the Spurs' three players with long-range shooting had a good catch, and Leonard had to throw the ball to Duncan.

It's not the same time as it used to be, and after Duncan received the ball, there was no one to go up to help defend.

The old stone Buddha immediately made a decision, and threw his hand in a step inside.

At this time, the gap between the players was seen, Duncan shot, and the Rockets looked at the basket except for the defenders.

On the Spurs' side, Zhang Xiaotian, Ginobili and Leonard all rushed to the basket.

Duncan's mid-range shot was disrupted, but the ball that bounced out was hit by Ginobili.

Zhang Xiaotian rushed a little too much, at this time he showed a quick reaction speed, and with a twist of his body in mid-air, he grabbed the ball that Ginobili had picked up into his arms, and threw it to the basket when he felt that he was about to land.

In fact, he didn't know if he could get in, this time it was all based on feeling.

The calculator on the basket has turned red and the basketball falls into the basket almost simultaneously.

Lore, Ginobili jumped on Zhang Xiaotian's back excitedly, and the old man chatted about juvenile madness.

At 97:96, the Spurs swept the Rockets in the regular season.

Back in San Antonio, Eddie invited him to dinner and said triumphantly: "Tim Hardaway Jr., Seth Curry, I said hello, they are basketball families, if I can sign them, my connections in the league...... Hahaha! ”

Zhang Xiaotian raised his glass and touched Eddie, and said with a smile: "You are really ambitious." ”

He didn't want to hit this, other people's connections in the alliance were much better than Eddie's new company, so why should people choose him if he didn't have an advantage.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaotian still suggested: "You should pay attention to those who have the potential to play better, but they are not so famous now." ”

The performance in Crazy March is an important basis, Eddie has been running during this time, and some of the video materials he has compiled have also been sent to Zhang Xiaotian.

When staying at home, Zhang Xiaotian will still help analyze it.

If Eddie can succeed, he will also be happy, as for his own contract, as long as the cooperation is happy, it will definitely be fine, but a few of the terms will have to be changed.

This is a very normal choice, compared to losing the draft, he can be regarded as playing out, and some of the interests will definitely be handled by himself, he is not the kind of man with developed limbs and a simple mind in a joke.

Just chatting about basketball, Yang Feiyu was bored, and took Carla shopping, and it is estimated that he will discuss the graduation thesis by the way, Kara is a real scholar, although he is helping to take care of the company now, there will be no problem helping Yang Feiyu again.

Eddie's theories are set up, Zhang Xiaotian feels that he is a little unreliable, if he can fight those newcomers, it would be good to judge.

On March 27 at the Spurs' home court, they will take on the Nuggets.

Truth be told, the Nuggets have been one of the toughest opponents in the West this season.

Not only are they difficult to play with the main team, but they also have ruthless characters such as Wilson Chandler, Andre Miller, Corey Brewer, and Javier McGee on the bench, and there are few weaknesses, which may be the lack of an All-Star-caliber player.

At the beginning of the game, the two teams exploded each other on the inside, to be precise, the power forward position.

Kenneth Farid is physically strong, and Duncan can't keep up, but he is tall and has long arms, and there is nothing to do about playing Farid inside.

However, the second-year newcomer was also arrogant in front of Duncan, which also made people sigh a little.

The main lineups of the two sides are difficult to solve on the court, but when it comes to the rotation period, the Spurs are a little unbearable, which is what the Spurs often do, but unfortunately the Nuggets are one of the few teams with more players.

Zhang Xiaotian can barely withstand Brewer's impact, but Ginobili can't stop Wilson Chandler now, and McGee, a center with an annual salary of tens of millions, is used to bully the substitute, and George Carr is also courageous.

Fortunately, Danny Green exploded, and the Nuggets were also surprised by the fact that he came up with a three-point brush and a hit.

In fact, this guy is also unstable, he is very scary when he is on time, and he scares his own people when he is not already, but he doesn't want the ball at all, and it is easier to use than Zhang Xiaotian.

So although the Spurs were 10 points behind in the rotation, they were still only 3 points behind the opponent at halftime.

Both sides fundamentally adjusted their defensive strategies in the first half.

Farid lost space to impact, and Danny Green was locked up by Iguodala and lost even the chance to shoot.

However, the Spurs' loss of Danny Green had no effect at all, and Parker, who was a wedding dress in the first half, began to exert his power, and the seemingly ordinary mid-range shots pierced through the Nuggets' defense again and again, and the score was instantly overtaken.

The main lineup couldn't play, and the Nuggets decided to rely on the bench, but the Spurs were prepared, and Popovich naturally let Danny Green stay on the court to deal with Wilson Chandler.

Consume more of the other party, and Ginobili will not suffer a loss if he is against it again, after all, there are many experienced demon knives, and when he gets older, he is afraid that the opponent will be unreasonable when he is full of physical strength.

And after the opponent replaced the old Miller, the effect of defending Parker was still good, and the pace couldn't keep up with the experience to make up, so let Farid make up for the defense, and also made Parker less relaxed than before.

After Zhang Xiaotian came up, he beat Brewer, the opponent was taller and heavier than him, but he was much lighter, he was very good at hitting the opponent's weaknesses, Brewer's strength couldn't keep up, so he specialized in resisting squeezing.

With his improvement, this rotation time has not suffered much except for the center position.

However, the Nuggets also blurred the main bench, and several benches played longer than the main team.

At the decisive moment, they had three substitutes on the field, Wilson Chandler went to the number three position, Gallinari played the number four position, and McGee played the center forward, as if he was also a big four small.

The Spurs then switched to a targeted lineup to compete with each other.
