So, what kind of starting lineup did Popovich put out for this game? Why is everyone so surprised. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Spurs' starters are like this, point guard Jin Feng, point guard Danny Green, small forward Jonathan Simmons, big forward Kawhi Leonard, center Dedmon!

That's right, it's such a starting lineup that looks "nondescript", but in fact has a deep meaning.

The noise then quickly filled the entire arena.

"Ahaha, this is crazy, what is Greg paying attention to? Tony Parker and LaMarcus Aldridge, Pau Gasol, the three absolute main forces were pressed to the bench, but China Jin served as the point guard, Kewai mentioned the power forward position, and the starting center was actually played by a playoff rookie Dedmon, which is crazy"

"Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that I knew it was Popovich's starting lineup, I might have had to wonder if I was watching the NBA playoffs in the semifinals."

"There's one characteristic, and there's a very obvious feature of Greg's starting lineup, and that's defense, and if you look at these five starters, all of them are defensive stalwarts, is Greg going to start from the defensive end from the very beginning of the game? Maybe that's the case, the characteristics of this starting lineup are too obvious"

"Well, look at Jazz head coach Sneijder's expression, but it's not natural, maybe he didn't expect Popovich to put out such a starting lineup, there is no doubt that a starting lineup like the Spurs will give the Jazz a feeling of super defensive intensity from the beginning of the game..."

A lot of people are exclaiming Popovich's starting lineup, looking at the expressions of the Jazz players on the other side, looking at the expressions of Jazz head coach Sneijder, it is clear that this is also unexpected.

And at this time, in fact, not only the fans and Jazz players, even Jin Feng, was still a little "frightened" at this time, he knew about the lineup arranged by Popovich in the morning, to be honest, when Popovich informed everyone in the morning that the starting lineup for this game was also in disbelief.

This is crazy, Jin Feng will not forget that when Popovich announced the starting lineup for this game in the morning, Aldridge, Parker, and Gasol had gloomy faces.

They've all been playing as regular players, once upon a time as a substitute, not to mention such an important playoff semifinal.

Parker, in particular, has played for the Spurs for more than a dozen seasons and has played off the bench in the playoffs.

For their star players, it's not a matter of tactics, and from a reputation point of view, it's hard for them to accept such an arrangement.

However, Popovich is Popovich, after a long day's work, the old man didn't know what to say to the three people, and then, although the expressions of the three were still unnatural, they also accepted Popovich's arrangement.

…………

In such a hot atmosphere, with the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Jumping the ball, Gobert jumped up before Dedmon and flicked the ball over, and the Jazz got the ball.

George Hill pounced on the front court with the ball, and the Spurs responded on the defensive end, although Leonard was mentioned to the position of power forward in this game, but at this time he took the initiative to face George Hill who held the ball, so death entwined George Hill.

"The Spurs used Leonard to defend George Hill, and as the Spurs' most defensive player right now, Popovich asked Kawhi to defend Hill, and it was clear that their idea should be to use Kawhi to lock up the connection between George Hill and the Jazz."

"Kawai vs. George Hill, this is an interesting picture, how much fans who know the Spurs should know that the reason why the Spurs are now able to have Kowai is to a certain extent the credit of George Hill, at the beginning, Kewai Ke and Hill swapped owners to join the Spurs, this deal, I think many people can't understand at the beginning, but it is undeniable that although George Hill is excellent, but compared with Kehuai, it is still a little worse, and the Spurs made a big deal......"

George Hill looked at Leonard and didn't choose to break through at the first time, mainly because Leonard's position was too good, and it directly stuck George Hill's breakthrough route, without a good breakthrough route, George Hill's breakthrough would be difficult to have an effect, according to the Jazz's own offensive play, it is better to pour the ball back and forth outside and look for better opportunities.

George Hill dribbled for a while, but there was really no chance, so he flicked his hand and stuffed the ball to Haywood.

Heywood took the ball, circled around the top of the arc, went around the other side 45 degrees, and held the ball to face Jin Feng.

Defending Heywood, Jin Feng still has no pressure, as long as his state is not a problem, Jin Feng can even defend Heywood to become the king of iron.

Because in Jin Feng's view, although Haywood is now the top card of this Jazz team and the top 10 small forwards in the league, through several encounters in the regular season, Jin Feng feels that he has the confidence to limit him, after all, Haywood does not have much advantage in terms of height or physical confrontation against him.

Unlike Leonard's flawless single defense, Jin Feng deliberately leaked a little flaw, he took a step back, and sure enough, Heywood was fooled.

Seeing Jin Feng take a step back, Heywood naively thought that his feints had an effect, so he immediately retracted his feet and jumped and shot three-pointed.

Jin Feng had already aimed at the opportunity, and pounced on it with an arrow step, covering it with his big hand!

"Smack!" A crunch sound, followed by AT& amp; amp; amp; amp; There was a burst of cheers in the T arena.

"Hot pot! Heywood was careless! ”

"China Jin, Big Cap Heywood"

Although Jin Feng served as the starting point guard, however, the Spurs' first offense was still organized by Leonard, which was an "unspoken rule" problem on the court.

Leonard wasted no time, and with a lunge, he began to cut in with the ball.

The Jazz's defensive expansion soon arrived, Gobert moved to the free throw line, ready to cooperate with George Hill to block Leonard's inside cut, and the Jazz, who were good at defense, quickly gathered a large number of defensive players on the strong side, and almost all five of the Jazz's players appeared on the strong side.

And at this time, Jin Feng aimed at the opportunity, and he withdrew, without anyone paying attention......

"Kawai's break, the Spurs seem to be going to use their blocking tactics, but Kowham is full of defenders in front of him, and the cut with the ball is going to fail. After all, Kawai doesn't have the ball as good as Toney."

"Uh, no! At a 45-degree angle on the other side, who is that? Kenny Smith was about to say a few words, but suddenly he saw a shadow run out of the crowd, and then at a 45-degree angle on the other side, without any defenders in front of him, he received a pass from Leonard!

"Oh! That's the Chinese Jin! He ran out of an empty seat! Three points! Entered! Pretty! Barkley also found out, he shouted loudly, between the lightning and flint, Jin Feng made a three-point shot, and the Jazz couldn't make up for it, and watched Jin Feng shoot this pressure-free empty three-point shot!

Three points! Spurs score first! Popovich on the sidelines shook his hands fiercely, then turned around and sat back in his seat, looking very chic, his tactics had a little meaning!
