Chapter 130: This is called defense!

"Good shot!! Another big hat was sent, and the Spurs' defense today was really tough!! ”

At the scene, the local TV station in San Antonio was broadcasting the game live, and the commentator seemed extremely excited. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This kind of local TV broadcast live, and the audience for them is mainly locals, so the commentator can let go of the psychological shackles and cheer for the home team by temperament, without worrying about the so-called bias. Because of this kind of regional live game, the people who watch the live broadcast are also biased, and I wish you were biased towards the home team when you commented.

"But the Kings are clearly prepared, and so far, the score is still very anxious!"

The score on the court is 39-37 for the time being, and the Kings even lead by 2 points on the road.

This situation is quite rare, and this season's Spurs have actually begun to gradually transform, from a defensive powerhouse that originally focused on defense to an offensive team with more blossoms.

On the one hand, this change is an adjustment made under the astonishing mind of Zhuge Vic to interpret the new situation in the future of the NBA.

On the other hand, it is also a helpless move.

"Timmy!"

On the court, Tony Parker dribbled the ball down the middle, and a speedy sports car roamed around the free-throw line to deliver a striking pass.

The basketball bounced high on the floor and landed right in Duncan's hands.

"Bag Clip - !!"

The Kings did not hesitate and immediately took the bag. The main defensive starting center Guapi Delham Potter was behind him, and the moment he broke Duncan's lower set, Cousins had already pounced.

So resolute!

Fans at the AT-T Center are gasping, this season, Duncan is obviously old, playing time, points, rebounds, shots and many other statistics, have hit a new career low.

In addition to age, the reason is injury. Since 2007, Duncan's plantar fasciitis symptoms have been getting worse. This condition may not sound very serious, but friends who like to play basketball know very well that the pain in the soles of the feet will greatly affect the strength of running and jumping.

Duncan, though for most of his career, was not a player who relied on athleticism to survive. But when the basic running and jumping ability is affected, Duncan's skills are difficult to exert no matter how comprehensive they are.

"Pass it out Timmy!"

On the flanks, Ginobili was already swimming in a serpentine shape, opening his hand to ask for the ball.

“…… Syllable! ”

Duncan's hand on the ball was severed.

Tyrek Evans!

Tyrek Evans broke the basketball with one hand and turned around to attack, but before the ball in his hand landed, a ghost hand flashed on one side.

"Smack!"

What the......?!

Evans didn't expect that in such a calm and spicy team as the Spurs, there would be players who did not return to defense at the first time, but tried to steal on the spot and were caught off guard.

"Bang bang...... Swish! ”

Behind him, the basketball brushed the net and the Spurs equalized.

“MANUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU――GINOBILI――!!!!”

Manu can only be Manu.

Under the system of POP coaches who are strict to the point of being like an army, the only one who can have such freedom is the Argentine Demon Knife!

"It's not easy......"

In the media seat, Sager's colorful suit was eye-catching, and the old reporter frowned and looked at the court, shook his head slightly: "I really didn't expect that these young people of the Kings would actually make up their minds to fight a defensive battle!" ”

That's right, defensive wars.

After much thought, Coach Westphal gave the players the final instructions before the game, which was three words:

Fight defensively.

"Actually, it's right to think about it."

Beside Sagar, a local reporter from the Holy City nodded and said, "Needless to say, our side has defensive genes. Although Duncan's aging is more obvious, there are plenty of people in other positions, and rotation is not a problem. ”

"Dang!"

"Damn!"

On the field, the king attacked, and finally got rid of a trace of space, Gu Yu caught the ball and shot, but the result was still iron.

"On the King's side, although the few games we have won, the offense has been mercury. But it's not hard to see from the losses that their offense is quite inconsistent. It's just that the offensive performance of the winning game is too bright, so it gives everyone a kind of, 'The king's offense is not bad!' 'Impressions. ”

The Qualdes reporter continued: "Actually, looking at today's game, their real potential should be on the defensive end. ”

"Retreat!!"

The Spurs won the rebound, and Parker held the ball and looked up at the front court. Richard Jefferson, who grew up next to Kidd, has the best sense of fast attack and has sneaked down from the flanks.

But the rest of the Spurs' players, who are used to playing half-court offense and defense, are still advancing slowly, Parker wants to send a long pass, and the King's retreat is too fast and too resolute to complete the fast break.

"Hit the ground!"

In desperation, Parker stabilized his pace and continued to grind his position.

"The potential of the king...... On the defensive end? ”

On the media side, although Xiao Yu was worried about the game, he was also stunned when he heard that a senior gave such a judgment, and asked puzzledly: "The king's defense is good, only Garcia is alone, right?" ”

"Xiao Yu, that's right, but ......"

Sagarh said: "What you said is just the 'status quo', if you zoom in a little bit, in fact, the Kings can play the Spurs-style defensive strategy more than a decade ago." ”

Oh......?

Xiao Yu became more and more confused.

Spurs from a decade ago? That is, at the beginning of the 21st century?

At that time, the Spurs were arguably one of the strongest defensive teams in history, and how could the Kings compare?

"If you think about it, the Spurs were in the roster at the time, like ...... Around 2005! Who did the Spurs defend at the time? ”

Sagar asked.

"Duncan."

Xiao Yu replied without thinking.

"And then?"

Sagar asked with a smile.

"And then ......"

Xiao Yu was asked.

Oh, yes!

In 2005, the Spurs' defense was really impressive, and the defensive battle with the Pistons in the finals made the fans of the ball even more enthusiastic.

But when it comes to the Pistons' defense, it's a fan who can count it:

Big Ben, a historic defensive giant. Rashid, the one-on-one top defense on the inside line is a must. Prince, the long-distance run to chase Reggie Miller, and the slap that fanned Indiana's Soul champion Dream was enough to tell the story.

Billups was originally at the big gate level, and Hamilton's undead trait also allowed him to play quite a brilliant defensive performance against Kobe.

Coupled with Larry Brown's defensive adjustment, the defense of that Pistons, from the individual to the system, is born for defense.

So, what about Spurs......?

"Shoot......!" "Toot! ”

"24 seconds violation! Kings defended Spurs for a 24-second violation! Kings Ball Possession! ”

“BOOOOOOOO……”

A successful defense, the Kings team's three lives, constantly rotating and running, actually prevented the old Spurs from making mistakes.

“YES! Pretty anti-beautiful! ”

Amid the boos from the audience, the Kings' young men were full of energy, high-fives to each other, and at the same time began to push the offense.

"How's that, isn't it?"

Although the Holy City reporter supports the Spurs, they can't help but applaud the King's defense this time: "Be patient, be positive, run more to make up for the position, the King's defense is very good!" ”

Spurs in 2005 ......

Xiao Yu is still immersed in the previous topic.

Aside from Duncan, the Spurs' strongest defender is undoubtedly Bruce Bowen.

This flank 3D that makes many people hate it, although there are too many small movements. But its one-on-one defensive skills and foot entanglement are undoubtedly at the historical level.

However, Bowen's defense is more used to block the top outside scorer on the opposite side one-on-one, and it can't be said that there is any system. Unlike the likes of Marion and Gerrard Wallace, he doesn't have all-around skills and can't run around the pitch. The meaning of his existence is more to consume and entangle the opposing stars, and add a big lock outside the team's defensive system.

This kind of defensive man is functional, and it is not the same as Duncan's defensive role in that Spurs.

In the rest of the position, Parker's defense has been lackluster. Ginobili made a good tackle with one hand, but he was too aggressive, and it was a double-edged sword. Nesterovich, Mohammed and the like, the stake defense is not bad, but the speed is too slow, the opponent is fast, they just run back and forth on the field. The other players are not considered defensive experts, and rely more on Zhuge Vic's defensive system to cover up their respective weaknesses......

"Huh......?"

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu seemed to have grasped some ideas.

"It's the last round!!"

On the field, the two sides have come and gone several times, and the offense is still frequently hitting, with a score of 39 draws, and it has never been moved again.

"Bang, bang, bang"

In the last attack of the half, the Kings possessed the ball, Evans controlled the ball at the top of the arc, and his eyes kept scanning the half-court space, trying to find offensive opportunities.

however

"Perfect."

The Holy City reporter smiled slightly and praised: "Although the pace of the game has accelerated and the team has gradually become more offensive, in terms of defensive adjustment, POP is still the world's No. 1 ......!" ”

"......!"

In the Spurs' defensive line, a big blind head kept running back and forth, muttering non-stop, and the expression on his face was like a wanted criminal about to commit murder, and he didn't look like a good person.

"I'll run!"

Hanging on the weak side of Dyalham Porter's cover, Gu Yu walked to the flank, and at the moment of the pause, Cousins turned around to make a wall in the middle. Gu Yusa went straight to the sweet spot, and just after she took a step, a figure appeared in front of her.

"I can't get by."

Tony Parker, who retreated slightly at his feet, still locked on to Evans while blocking Gu Yu's passage to the sweet spot.

“…… I'll run again! ”

Gu Yu turned around directly on the spot, and Ginobili just caught up behind him, and before he could keep up, he was stopped again by Cousins, who turned over and made a wall for the second time.

If you don't let the line run, then I'll slip the bottom line and bypass it!

Gu Yu slipped across the bottom line, a lightning fold line, and rushed directly to the sweet spot.

"This road doesn't work, brother!"

Richard Jefferson retracted half a step from the flank, so that he couldn't die, and it happened to block Gu Yu's route for the first time.

Behind him, Ginobili immediately caught up.

“…… Grandma's, I'll keep running! ”

Where would Gu Yu be a believer? Gritting his teeth, he went straight to the middle lane, and made a covering move.

Seeing this, Evans at the top of the arc understood this, and immediately took advantage of Gu Yu's cover to go down.

Cousins and Bowler were both on the weak side, the Spurs were empty under the basket, and Evans could get to the basket.

"Whew!"

A long arm, reaching out from the side, unbiasedly blocked Evans' lane.

And this stretch of hand is extremely tricky, just a route to stop the ball, Evans even has the intention to touch the porcelain, and there is no way to get up.

Tim Duncan, a defensive move that was simple to the extreme, directly disintegrated Evans' offense.

Worst......

"Postback !!"

Evans was secretly screaming that something was wrong, and Gu Yu's shout sounded not far away.

…… That's right!

Evans' heart instantly brightened, just now after this run, I had Parker and Ginobili chasing after me, and Duncan in front of me, Dad...... Ahh

Return!

"Whoosh!"

With his hands behind his back, Evans' movements are full of spirituality, as casual and chic as he is playing street basketball.

The basketball rushed out and went straight to Gu Yu, and Gu Yu, who finally stood on the sweet spot, seemed to be about to usher in the first point of this game.

Half-time, counting seconds.

"Whew......!"

Gu Yu catches the ball and shoots!
