Chapter 426: The New Record Continues
How much prestige Vicky has at the Spurs can be known by looking at the difference between the two halves of the team.
The Spurs played very well in the third quarter, and few teams were able to adjust like this at halftime.
They used their three strong points well on the offensive end, and the intensity on the defensive end increased by a few notches, and it was without fouls
This is the real Spurs, and they are breathless on both ends of the floor.
And when Zhang Xiaotian went to rest, the team also played well, and Leonard scored 5 points in a row at the end of the third quarter to help the team overtake the score.
The Timberwolves' players are not to mention how depressed they are at this time, and they even feel that there is a problem with the referee's scale like the Spurs in the first half.
Winning at halftime, they scored 71 points in the first half, and the offensive end was unprecedentedly smooth, but in the second half everything changed, and the Spurs' defense was like a net, so they couldn't play fluently.
At the end of the day, Zhang Xiaotian came up with a wave.
Before the Timberwolves could react, the score was already behind by double digits.
It seems that a few minutes ago it was still ahead, how to play this ball.
Adjust? They didn't play the main team just now when they wanted to win, and now the Spurs have adjusted, and they have replaced the main players to play more pressively.
To be precise, in addition to Gasol, Gasol's state is a little poor this time, and the Spurs simply played one big and four small, ** Vic has never been a coach who does not know how to be flexible.
The Timberwolves played very tenaciously this time, except for Wiggins, who was defended a little in a trance, the other four main players played at key moments.
It's a pity that the Spurs' three strong points, Zhang Xiaotian, Leonard and Aldridge, are not soft.
The home crowd in the stands erupted with rare enthusiasm, winning 34 in a row, the first consecutive win in history, and after this game, they all took the surname of Spurs.
At the last moment, Zhang Xiaotian hit a three-point shot to end the game.
"We didn't play well in the first half, it was very unusual, we conceded 71 points and the opponent made 30 free throws. I think this is the first time this has happened to us. Manu Ginobili said after the game.
"We've been doing training to avoid fouls, so the 30 free throws were a surprise to us." Manu Ginobili struggled to feign composure.
Parker also said that the first half was "a little weird" for the Spurs. ”
The players interviewed all answered the questions, as if the record was nothing to them, but the joy in the corner of their eyes had completely betrayed them.
Vicky laughed, "These little cubs are really noisy. ”
"What, rotation? The Spurs never take a break, don't frame me, I'm going to go to you if the league fines. ”
"It's not a big deal, we have the strength, so it happens very often." No one will let go of the opportunity to pretend, and Zhang Xiaotian is the same.
When they got back to the dressing room, several of the young players couldn't help but cheer.
The outside world is not so dull about the Spurs breaking the 45-year record, they write about it, as if the Spurs have become the number one team in the universe.
However, they blew a little late, the All-Star bench list has come out, and the Spurs have no surprises.
The Spurs, who have the best record, have only two All-Star statuses, and they voted before.
The second-ranked Warriors have four, but there is only one Rockets ranked third in the West, and the Clippers ranked fourth in the West are also only one, and not every team in the top eight has stars selected, so the Spurs are not wronged.
But from this moment on, Spurs fans and Warriors fans have become mortal enemies, why.
Whether the Spurs will let the main team rest after breaking the player record is something that everyone thinks too much.
It's not the end of the season yet, and the team is still according to the predetermined plan, trying not to affect the players because of record-breaking events.
On January 19, the Spurs played the Nuggets at home.
Gasol will be out of action for a while because of a problem in the warm-up.
In addition, Parker's old foot injury is also a bit recurrent, and he plans to take a break.
Of course, the fans didn't believe it at all, and felt that ** Vicky was making excuses for the rotation again.
This is a wolf, although Zhang Xiaotian, an insider, understands that it is not the old man who is doing ghosts, but it does look like it.
During training, Zhang Xiaotian also played the No. 1 position, and he was fully competent.
However, he was already going to work the defensive and offensive ends, and the team still felt that a number one position was needed.
Rookie Dejounte Murray got his chance, and Vic likes to give the rookie some try.
On the inside, the Spurs used one big and four small this time, and Danny Green finally started.
The Nuggets' current situation is not up or down, but they don't plan to put ****** Jokic to beat Aldridge at the beginning of the game, Ade's state is really bad, he is very unstable this season, and now it seems that it is not easy to let him start the No. 5 position.
But the Nuggets' defense was as bad as ever, and they couldn't stop Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard at all.
doesn't care about everyone's ability to control the game, in terms of offense, the Spurs' two strong points are also better than the Nuggets' one strong point.
During the rotation, Nuggets rookie Jamal Murray performed well, but the veteran Ginobili in the Spurs team is completely young.
The trouble is still on Jokic's side, this guy is really good on the offensive end, he is just a second-round show, I don't know how many teams will regret it after seeing his performance.
After the Spurs were replaced by Dedmon, the situation did not improve much, in fact, Gasol may be more suitable for playing against the European inside, but unfortunately he was injured.
However, when the state of the Nuggets has been exposed, the Spurs have a lot of targeted tactics waiting for them, and even if they know the situation of the Spurs, it is still difficult to limit Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard.
That's the difference between a normal team and a strong team, and it's also the gap between All-Star level players.
In the third quarter, Aldridge, who had a long rest, worked very the defensive end.
Ade may still have mental quality problems sometimes, he doesn't mind working hard, even doing dirty work, but he just can't do it well, and it stands to reason that his All-Star level shouldn't be suppressed by Jokic.
Fortunately, the Spurs' targeted defensive strategy worked, and the Nuggets didn't react for a while, and the score was stretched to double digits in two minutes, and was soon stretched to about 15 points.
The Spurs don't look like they're going to score points, but because they're strong on both ends of the floor, they're pretty good at suppressing their opponents.
In addition to Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard, Spurs' rookie Murray also performed well, shooting very well, and even hit a few three-point points that he was not good at.
By the time the Nuggets adjusted to the timeout, the situation had been completely controlled by the Spurs, and relying on the Nuggets' offensive power, at most they would brush up on Jokic's data.
