Chapter 739: Victory

"Meng, well done."

"That's it, beat them up!"

In the away dressing room at the SBC Center, Jermaine O'Neal, James Posey and Tony Allen, who had been ejected by the referee on duty, were sitting in front of the TV watching the game in progress, and although they had been ejected, they were more excited at the moment than the substitutes sitting on the sidelines.

When Meng Xu steals Tony Parker in a row, there was a ghost crying wolf howl in the entire locker room, Tony Allen was a little better, James Posey and Jermaine O'Neal were directly in the locker room and roared unscrupulously, and seemed to have forgotten about his dismissal.

"Meng Xu's defensive intensity today is really terrifying, as an All-Star guard, Tony Parker was even difficult to dribble under his defense, and was cut off again, Tony Parker was directly stealed by Meng Xu, Meng Xu's steal rate is really terrifying, although Tony Parker has been very serious about protecting the ball, but he was still directly stolen by Meng Xu face to face."

When Meng Xu steals Tony Parker three times in a row, Michaels on the commentary bench is already excited and can't help himself, this is really crazy, Meng Xu's defense is good, and his steal ability is also very strong, and he has been the steal king since he entered the league, but on the stage of the finals, it is absolutely unheard of to steal an All-Star guard who has experienced the finals like this.

"Spurs are in danger." With a bang, Meng Xu, who launched a fast attack directly after breaking the ball, hung on the basket again, looking at the silent fans on the spot, and Popovich who was angry on the sidelines, Barkley knew that in today's game, the Spurs were in danger.

It is difficult for the Spurs to win when Tim Duncan is caught and other Spurs players can't stand up to provide enough firepower for the Spurs, especially when the success rate of the Pacers' counterattack is so high, even if Tim Duncan suddenly bursts, it won't help the Spurs beat the Pacers, not to mention that Tim Duncan can't see any signs of explosion under the Pacers' crazy package defense.

"Popovich called a timeout, not knowing what changes he was going to make to deal with the situation on the court." After Meng Xu made three consecutive steals of Tony Parker, the Pacers took the opportunity to overtake the score, and the Pacers also completely played with momentum, in this case, Popovich had to call a timeout, but how to adjust after the timeout, Reggie Miller still can't guess for the time being.

"Maybe the Spurs can arrange a two-point guard lineup to give it a try." The point guard is strangled to death, which is equivalent to cutting off the foundation of all tactics, in this case, it is difficult for the Spurs to have room for adjustment, but Magic Johnson still proposed a solution for the Spurs, Tony Parker was strangled, then another point guard, two point guards take turns to control the ball.

Sure enough, after the timeout, just as Magic Johnson suggested, Popovich replaced Brent Barry with backup point guard Benno Yudri, sending a two-point guard lineup, ready to use this to break the Pacers' tight defense, and Meng Xu's tight blockade of Tony Parker.

The Pacers were very shameless not to play full-court pressing with the Spurs after the Spurs changed formations, but switched to conventional tactics, which was very embarrassing, the Spurs sent a point guard, and the height and defensive intensity on the court dropped instantly, and Rick Carlisle seemed to have expected the Spurs to make such a change, and also changed the formation and started a positional battle with the Spurs.

Due to the large height gap and the average defense, both Ronnie Brewer and Tyshawn Prince can easily single Benno Yudri, and after being seized by the Pacers to misplace the singles, Benno Yudri, who has just been on the court for less than 2 minutes, was directly replaced by Popovich.

Benno Udri was just substituted off the court, and the scene that made Popovich vomit blood appeared, and the Pacers began to press the defense all over the court again, this kind of you change the formation, I also change the formation, anyway, it is a way of playing against you everywhere, which is undoubtedly very disgusting, and the fighting spirit of the Spurs will inevitably be consumed little by little in this kind of defense against the Pacers.

"Steal, Meng Xu broke the ball again! Tony Parker was cut off by Meng Xu again, a beautiful counterattack, and the difference between the two sides has been widened to 12 points! “

As soon as the Spurs changed formations, Meng Xu began to target Tony Parker, and after being cut off this time, Tony Parker was obviously a little distracted, after being broken by Meng Xu and counterattacking, Tony Parker rarely did not retreat, but stood in place, watching Meng Xu rush all the way to the Spurs' basket and score a layup.

"I've been cut off again, am I really that vulnerable?" Seeing Meng Xu snatch the basketball from his own hands, Tony Parker is also a little confused now, and Tony Parker himself doesn't know that this is the first time he has been robbed by Meng Xu today.

"Spurs have completely lost the rhythm of the game." After Meng Xu broke the ball and counterattacked to score, Popovich did not call a timeout to adjust, but shouted a few words loudly on the sidelines, signaling Tony Parker to cheer up and concentrate, but after being continuously tackled by Meng Xu, Tony Parker's heart was already in turmoil, and in the subsequent attack, he was timid and could not organize an effective attack.

"I didn't expect this game to be like this today." Barkley, who has always supported the Spurs and hopes that the Spurs can win, has no hope for the Spurs after the end of the first half, the three core Ginobili of the Spurs were sent off, and Tony Parker was targeted by Meng Xu everywhere, leaving only Tim Duncan alone, the Spurs are impossible to win, and the difference of 14 points has reached at halftime, and in today's game, the Spurs have no hope.

"Cheng Ye Manu, defeated Ye Manu, Ginobili's outstanding performance in the last game not only helped the Spurs win the game, but also gave the Spurs hope of winning the championship, but his impulsive move today completely buried the Spurs." Under the influence of Meng Xu, Reggie Miller, who can already drag all kinds of Chinese idioms, also said with regret after Barkley's words fell.

Without Ginobili, Tony Parker, who can't play the form, the Spurs seem to be back to previous seasons, and can only rely on Tim Duncan to fight alone, after the start of the third quarter of the game, Tim Duncan tried to take over the game, but after a surge with Meng Xu, Tim Duncan, who was consumed too much physical strength in the first half, finally lost because of physical exhaustion.

98-87, and finally when the game was over, the Pacers won Game 4 of the Finals and moved the score to 2-2.

After the end of this game, the mentality of both the Pacers and the Spurs has changed very much, the Spurs who have the advantage and lose the game are undoubtedly frustrated, and the Pacers, who successfully equalized the score, are excited.
