Chapter 22: Four Consecutive Defeats

Robert controlled the ball and looked for an opportunity, Green kept a close eye on Robert's movements, and Robert, who was observing the position of his teammates, did not act rashly. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion Embiid ran in the opposite position www.biquge.info ran to the high post to cover Robert, Robert seized the opportunity to pass Green, and Kawhi Leonard on the side ran over to block Robert.

Thompson, who was abandoned by Leonard, ran in the opposite direction, and Green turned to switch to Thompson. But people don't run as fast as balls! Thompson, who received the ball first, jumped out when Green was still two steps away from him, and scored two points from beyond the three-point line, and the ball crossed a perfect arc in the air and hit!

"French sports car" Tony. Parker, dribbling to the frontcourt at the end of the baseline, making a breakthrough feint, after a false shot, a quick first step on the left side passed McCarvey, passed Embiid who pounced, and a baseline turned to a small hook, and the ball obediently flew to the basket. At this moment, a yellow-brown hand appeared in the path where the ball was flying, and the reaction force bounced the ball away!

Parker looked at Robert, who shouldn't have appeared in this position, and calculated the defenders and interior players who made up the defense, or ignored this Robert who was far outside the three-point line!

"Wow, Robert's cap is really beautiful and neat!" Sina commentator Ke Fan said excitedly.

"Replay, let's take a look, Parker's breakthrough! Parker's breakthrough is still very quintessential, and the movements are coherent and smooth! ”

"You see, when Parker just started to break through, Robert consciously shrank inside, and used Covington's body to block his own figure, so that Parker was not the slightest defense! rushed forward at the moment Parker made a move, without giving Parker a chance! It can be said that this Robert is betting right! Next to the former national team main striker Ma, Jian said analytically.

Thompson, who was behind Parker, grabbed the ball and easily added a rebound to his personal technical stats. Thompson, who held the ball high with both hands, was looking for his teammates, and just when Thompson was about to pass the ball, Leonard, who was on Thompson's side, suddenly jumped up, slapped the ball down at once, quickly bypassed Thompson to catch the ball, and faced the empty basket that had withdrawn and was ready to attack, Leonard also showed off his dunk on a rare display!

Watching the Spurs' Leonard dunk the ball, the fans at the scene burst into frenzied shouts and screams.

Thompson quickly picked up the ball to serve, the ball was given to Robert, Robert did not give McCarvey who reached out to catch the ball after receiving the ball, ran directly to the court, and saw that Green was still some distance away from him, Robert just took a small step outside the three-point line and shot a jump shot! Green hit the floor with his hind foot and hurriedly pounced to disturb Robert, but it was still too late! Having already thrown the ball out, Green didn't interfere! Looking at the very positive arc, the ball finally went in!

The 76ers bit the score to the death, and did not follow the rhythm that people had already made, and stubbornly bit the Spurs!

Tim, who has always been the heart of the Spurs. Duncan stepped up at the right time! On the offensive end, Covington hit a hook shot and hit a board shot in a 45-degree angle! The defensive end also caused a lot of trouble for the 76ers players, and the defensive system centered on Duncan was completely unleashed, making every attack of the 76ers look extremely difficult.

Duncan once again blocked the 76ers' offense on the defensive end, and Thiago, who got the rebound. Split made a wide range of horizontal passes to Leonard, turned around and reached out to take the ball at the point where it arrived, bent his body into a bow, and dunked his hands violently! completely detonated the scene, and all kinds of exaggerated sound layers are endless!

Crazy! This moment can only be described by this word for the fans at the scene! Cheers regardless of the image!

Next, the 76ers' offense seemed to be interfered with by the fans, and the Spurs missed one after another, and the Spurs took the opportunity to expand the advantage and pull the score to about 15 points! Watching the score widen, the 76ers players began to become numb and mechanical!

The crazy battle with the Mavericks overdrew a lot of physical strength, although he rested for a day, but with the long journey, he still didn't slow down! The starters are starting to show a sense of fatigue and are running much slower!

With two minutes left in the game, the first quarter ended when Brown called a timeout and boldly replaced all the starters. Popovich also made a substitution as usual in his usual rotation, allowing Manu. Ginobili played with a second lineup.

At the end of the first quarter, the substitutions of the 76ers did not improve the offense, but the defense has been significantly improved! This also did not widen the point difference, but Richardson made a successful three-point shot before the end and narrowed the score to 12 points!

At the beginning of the second quarter, the state of the second half of the first quarter was continued, and after the ball was passed to one person, he stood still and watched the ball carrier attack! McCarvey passed the ball to Robert and stood outside the three-point line to wait, although there was some running, but there was still a big gap compared to the norm!

Embiid still dutifully ran out to cover for the ball carrier, and as for who held the ball, it didn't matter so much! Robert took advantage of the cover and strode forward to break through, and Green quickly stepped back around Embiid to ensure that he could return to the defensive position in the shortest possible time! I didn't expect Robert to suddenly retract, but he also took a step back, reached the three-point line, and calmly jumped and shot! Three-point hit!

Throughout the second quarter, Robert became the only protagonist, one person plus Embiid and the rotating Noll, carrying the 76ers against the Spurs! Robert scored 15 points in a single quarter!

In the first half of the third quarter, Robert and Embiid sat on the bench to rest, and two consecutive high-intensity games made the 76ers lose sight of one or the other!

Seeing the Spurs players easily get another open jumper, Brown called a timeout with some anxiety. After the pause, Robert, who had just come on the court, played a small cooperation with Embiid and assisted Embiid to follow up and make a pick!

The Spurs immediately returned the color and were tossed by Parker!

The 76ers' form began to pick up, and they hit a few balls in a row to chase the score to single digits! Robert habitually used Embiid's cover to break through the inside, and Split actively waited for Robert on the inside, ready to ask him to make a spicy hot pot when he was angry!

Looking at Split, Robert already knew that he was playing wishful thinking, but was it that easy? Against Split, Robert threw the ball back, and Embiid, who followed Robert's empty cut, jumped with all his strength to receive Robert's pass, jumped high, and was ready to dunk!

Looking at Embiid who flew over, Split was also in his heart, and he also jumped, ready to block this attack! The moment it collided with Split in the air, the ball was separated.

After the collision, Embiid, who lost his balance, fell heavily to the ground, and after landing, Embiid hugged his left leg that landed first, with a painful expression, and returned to the locker room with the help of the team members and medical staff for a preliminary diagnosis!

Embiid's injury became the straw that crushed the 76ers' entire momentum, and the score came to a 20-point gap at the end of the third quarter!

After only two minutes of play in the fourth quarter, Robert was replaced by the coach, and in the end, the 76ers had no choice but to swallow the defeat! The Spurs won the game in their own arena, and when they won three in a row, they sent their opponents to four in a row!
