After deciding to make a fuss about the backline, Brown was ready to reinstate the team's regular starting lineup for Game 3, and he "darkly" announced the news in advance in public. Popovich, who has been paying attention to the 76ers' troubles, is like a big enemy, and in his opinion, the strange lineup used by the 76ers in the first two games is completely desirable, and he forced himself to make adjustments, but now you actually changed the lineup first? Can you still play well?

In fact, Brown knows his disciples very well, and Popovich said that he is clever at best, and that he is thinking too much if he says it badly, and his sudden announcement of a realignment of the starting lineup to a regular starting point this season will definitely make him suspicious. While Brown is ready to return to his previous starting lineup, it would be nice to be able to add to Popovich's block.

Regarding Brown's approach, Chang Wei said that he learned another trick, and although he is not sure what Popovich will think, it is good to be able to disrupt the deployment of the Spurs. Sometimes you don't need a very elaborate solution to deal with someone, especially if your opponent is still smart, and using this to counter-jam can be a good thing.

Popovich, who habitually thinks too much, had to prepare for the third game with both hands, lest the news be a deliberate smoke bomb from his own teacher. So the Spurs players didn't have any rest at all after returning to San Antonio, and had to participate in tactical training at least twice a day in order to make the 76ers' surprise attack a complete useless exercise.

Of course, in the era when media reporters are everywhere, the Spurs' preparation has already been leaked by many media, and Popovich did not ask for secrecy anyway, well, even if he did, no one other than the local media in San Antonio might not listen. After learning about the Spurs' preparations, Chang Wei trained the team's attacking guards more and more strictly, and in his opinion, as long as his side is more prepared, the more he can catch the opponent off guard.

In fact, as a time-traveler, Chang Wei favors defenders far more than centers, and although he has been working hard to train Durham Potter and Oku, and even used a rejuvenation potion for Mutombo last season, these players are not up to par in his mind. Bowler and Mutombo are both blue-collar players who focus on defense and light offense, and Oku has range beyond the three-point line, but his dominance under the basket is not enough to meet the requirements of Chang Wei.

So this time, when the team planned to use the defender as the main point of attack, the most excited was not Iverson and Arenas, who were entrusted with the task, but Chang Wei. Although he is not a head coach and cannot formulate specific tactics for the team, he can make all the defenders in the team play the games they want to see the most, and start to dominate the league in advance.

However, Chang Wei also has to be glad that the Spurs have not yet formed a GDP trio that has left a strong mark in the history of the league, Parker is still a rookie, and Ginobili is still playing in Italy, if the two of them grow up, it is still a question whether the 76ers' current backcourt configuration can dominate the game.

But this time, Chang Wei is very confident, young people, it is inevitable to pay tuition. Of course, the 76ers are also a young team, and the average age is much younger than the Spurs, but in terms of backcourt players alone, they are more like rookies, even with Smith and Daniels in charge, the 76ers are a proper crushing in terms of talent.

Perhaps due to the overall style of the team, Spurs fans are relatively not that crazy, which is why the Spurs basically have an amazing home win rate every season, but the AT&T Center has never been called the home of the devil. When the 76ers came to this small city, the Spurs fans didn't do anything aggressive, everyone subconsciously ignored their arrival, huh...... Perhaps it can also be said that Spurs fans are full of absolute confidence in the team they support?

But sometimes the gap in hard power is not something that can be bridged by the strong confidence of the fans. After seeing that Brown did use the 76ers' most commonly used starting lineup, Popovich did not hesitate to send the twin towers, although the previous use of the single tower worked well but could only be regarded as a last resort, and now the opponent has given up his advantage, so why not use the twin towers to kill them?

In the opening jump shot, Durham Porter had no interest in competing with Duncan at all, and in the previous two games, he had found that his bounce was completely inferior to that of this expressionless big man, and he was ready to return to the basket to defend with a symbolic jump. Duncan tossed the ball to Parker very easily, but the latter was about to catch the ball when a dark shadow suddenly flashed in front of him-

it! The ball is gone! Parker quickly turned his head to look, and even almost cramped because he was spinning too fast, and in his field of vision, a small man wearing the 76ers' No. 3 jersey had already ridden into the dust, like lightning straight to his own basket, and then a light pick-and-roll helped the 76ers take the lead, and the rest of the Spurs players had not yet reacted.

Popovich's face darkened, he didn't expect that his team had grabbed the ball, but he was forced to be rebounded by Iverson after completing the steal. Although this is only 2 points, and it is the first round of the whole game, Popovich, who has always been strict with the army, is very unhappy, but he is helpless, who let Parker just be a rookie?

It's rare for a head coach like Popovich to have the audacity to use a rookie as the starting point guard across the league, and that's because of his trust in Parker. But this time, Parker has become a weakness that the 76ers exploit, no, not only him, but the entire Spurs' guard line is their weakness. All along, the Spurs' formidable interior twin towers have been too dazzling, dazzling enough to cover up their weaknesses in other areas, and this happens to be the breakthrough for the 76ers.

Iverson's 2 points and 1 steal were nothing compared to the whole game, but it showed his true strength, which Brown specifically instructed before the game. Maybe fans will think Parker is pitiful, and even have a bad feeling for Iverson because of it, but that's the way it is in competitive sports, as long as you stand on the court, age is no longer a bargaining chip for you to win sympathy, as long as you are strong enough, you can naturally beat the already famous star directly regardless of age and experience, but if you are not strong enough, then you still have to pay tuition, which is an important part of the growth process of any rookie player.
