The Spurs have several defensive schemes, and their biggest concern is the Pelicans holding the ball inside.

But Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry apparently didn't think so, and he still let Jrue Holiday play, even though the defensive players have changed.

Jrue Holiday still has the quality, but the decision is not so appropriate.

At the critical moment, Danny Green lived up to the trust of ** Vic and let Jrue Holiday shoot iron.

You know, the Spurs tested each other's offense and defense in training, and although Danny Green couldn't match them completely, it was okay to only study defense, and he was more experienced as a defensive guard.

Leonard protected the defensive rebound and called a timeout, with only 1.5 seconds left in the game.

In the Spurs' last attack, the Pelicans will definitely defend Zhang Xiaotian tightly.

** Vicky picked up the tactical board and directly drew out the tactics, and after going on the court, Zhang Xiaotian made a gesture to catch the ball, and suddenly ran back to the bottom line after it seemed to start.

The player who followed him reacted and was blocked by Aldridge, Zhang Xiaotian received the ball and turned back directly, and Dante Cunningham, who was chasing after him, only had time to make an outstretched movement.

In a standard shooting stance, the two-point shot was solid.

96:94, a long-lost lore, Zhang Xiaotian once again showed his invincible key ball.

The next day, the team flew to Minnesota to take on the Timberwolves back-to-back.

The Timberwolves are also a team that is basically hopeless in the playoffs, but they have a few talented players on their roster who will use the rest of the game to hone the abilities of young players.

When playing against this kind of team, you must not let them get through.

In fact, the Timberwolves don't feel very weak, but they can't get up.

As soon as the game started, Rubio mastered the tempo, activating his teammates while completely restricting Parker.

That's what Rubio is capable of, he's not the type to score directly, he's more difficult to limit

And after the Spurs' starting center was replaced, that point basically lost its attacking power.

Coupled with the Spurs' fatigue, the first quarter really didn't play well.

Another problem is Downs, who can't completely limit Aldridge on the defensive end, but feels much more active than Aldridge on the offensive end.

The Spurs had just played some good games under the leadership of Pau Gasol during the rotation period, and as soon as the main team came up, Aldridge was blown up by Towns.

As a result, there was a rare scene on the field.

The Spurs, who have the league's best record, trailed the Timberwolves by double digits at halftime, and Towns, who scored 20 points in two quarters, played a major role.

Even if the Spurs weren't as focused on winning or losing the regular season, that situation angered Vicky.

Offense is not allowed, and the Spurs are not allowed to have defensive loopholes that allow opposing players to score points at will.

In fact, the team's defense in the first half was not too bad, and the opponent's second point Wiggins was eaten to death by Zhang Xiaotian.

In the third quarter, the Spurs' defense shrank and preferred to let the Timberwolves shoot from the outside.

Although Downs is flexible enough, has a certain amount of weight and strength, he is not the kind of overlord type on the inside, and the Spurs' forward line can also change defenses.

Of course, it's better not to give him a chance to shoot.

As soon as the defense line shrinks, there is less room for movement on the inside, and Rubio's shooting ability is not good, and at this time the Timberwolves must rely on Wiggins to play.

It's a pity that Wiggins hasn't made much progress in the past few seasons, and he can't play at all under Zhang Xiaotian's defense.

The Timberwolves want to strengthen their defense in this situation, which still has a certain effect, but they don't have the ability of a top defensive team.

Their head coach this season, Tom Hibodeau, is a defensively understanding coach, but unfortunately he hasn't tuned the team to the desired shape.

The Spurs steadily chased the score, did not explode, and by the end of the third quarter, the score gap had narrowed to single digits.

And a team dominated by young players like the Timberwolves has been criticized for their ability in the final quarter.

This is what Spurs are good at, not only Zhang Xiaotian, but others are also very confident.

The Timberwolves also really wanted to win, and Towns didn't go to rest.

This is also the characteristic of the opposing head coach Hirodeau, who is very used to playing the main team.

It's just that at this time, it's really hard for Downs to get a chance, and Pau Gasol's defense against him is very good, coupled with the Spurs' shrinking defensive strategy, Downs has no room to move on the inside.

This is all because the outside line of the Timberwolves is too weak to give resources at all.

They didn't seem to have much to do at this time, just trying to slow down the pace of the game and try to hold on to a small lead.

It turns out that in basketball, it's harder to play with a defensive distance than an offense.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Zhang Xiaotian made a successful steal and hit a three-point shot on the counterattack.

Then he made a foul and hit both free throws to help the team close the score gap to just one point.

Before the Timberwolves could make any adjustments, the Spurs took the lead in changing the main lineup.

After Leonard came up, he and Zhang Xiaotian fully cooperated twice, and when the Timberwolves only Towns got two free throws, they simply overtook the score.

After the Spurs overtook the Spurs, the Timberwolves gave people the feeling that they couldn't play even more.

They played all kinds of iron on the outside, and by the halfway point of the final quarter, the Spurs had already surpassed by 5 points.

The Timberwolves just woke up from a dream and began to kill desperately to the basket.

Because the Spurs' defense has shrunk, this is actually a tough match, and the efficiency will not be very high, but they have lost confidence in the mid-to-long-range shooting because of the continuous misses on the outside, so they can only gamble.

Zhang Xiaotian and Leonard didn't give each other a chance, and after the Timberwolves scored, they would definitely get back face.

When the Timberwolves didn't score, it was also the Spurs' offense that was more threatening.

At 1 minute and 31 seconds, Zhang Xiaotian hit another three points, and the Spurs' lead suddenly expanded to 10 points.

Immediately after Towns went to the three-point line and couldn't shoot, the Timberwolves suddenly lost the Warriors who could continue.

Relying on the excellent play in the final quarter, the Spurs won back-to-back.

By this time, they had reached 61 regular season games, and the team had only lost three.

Royal style, a perfect combination of offense and defense at both ends, a report resonated with the outside world, and the Spurs once again became a hot spot in the league.

There is no sword to go off the rails, there is a classical flavor, and the tactics of the new era have been added, and many experts say that the Spurs are playing basketball that really leads to victory.

For a while, the team's rave reviews, of course, there were also those who sang the opposite, saying that the Spurs were so hard, and the regular season results were good, but everyone had not yet made efforts, and their tactics could only kneel in the playoffs, but this voice would basically be drowned out.

In this case, Vicky is also a headache, how to prepare for the playoffs.

To be honest, due to the good results, the previous plan seemed a little unsuitable, and the team's popularity, the management actually liked it.
