Chapter 540: Osborne's Lore?
Osborne didn't play much in the third quarter and was pressed to the bench by Larry Brown to rest, in fact, Osborne felt that the Spurs players should not risk the world's condemnation anymore, otherwise the Spurs would not have been sprayed to death. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Osborne thinks like this, I have to say that he is still too young, some rough moves on the basketball court can also be used in order to win, the Spurs not only use it, but also use peace of mind, as long as the team wins, everything else is a floating cloud, no matter how good you spray, I have won the championship, how you like to spray how to spray.
However, Osborne also has a clear understanding of his physical condition, and he also believes that he should deal a major blow to the Spurs in a critical moment to avoid falling into a bad situation.
Osborne finished the third quarter of the game and only scored 19 points, which was not very high, and the rest was scored by his teammates, Richard Hamilton scored 20 points, the highest on the Pistons, and Chauncey Billups had 11 points and 8 assists.
In the fourth quarter, Osborne felt that he couldn't go on like this, and if he couldn't solve the Spurs' defensive iron bucket formation well, then the Pistons would have a lot of luck in this game.
Osborne said to everyone before he came on the court: "Don't be afraid of the Spurs' defense, no team can match us in terms of offense, so you only need to do one thing, give me the basketball, and then block and cover for me, and I will definitely throw the basketball into the basket as much as possible." ”
Larry Brown also knew that a hero like Osborne was needed at this time, and he didn't stop it, but said calmly: "We still have a great chance to win this game, as long as we can run the basketball well, the scoring opportunity will definitely appear, I just hope you can grasp it, so you can play according to Osborne's ideas." ”
After listening to Osborne and Larry Brown's words, everyone gradually strengthened their confidence, and Osborne also felt that the time for his performance had come, but he must not be ruined, after all, the Pistons rarely encountered such a situation.
The Spurs' defense is indeed a bit of a headache for Osborne, and it is difficult for him to find a good opportunity to make a move even if he relies on his teammates' blocking and dismantling, because the Spurs players are very strong in defense, and even if there is an open position, other people can quickly run over to make up for Osborne.
However, Osborne knows that blocking and dismantling is still an indispensable link, and the Utah double brake is to give full play to the blocking and dismantling and covering tactics, so no matter how simple the tactics are, as long as the ability of the executor is strong, it can also exert a strong effect, just like Stephen Curry, his three-point shot is quite casual, although he also needs his teammates' blocking and dismantling at critical moments, but the three-point shots he sometimes shoots are simply thrown casually, and Osborne's current state has not recovered to the best, There's no way to shoot as much as he wants, but when his state comes out, he can also shoot in defiance of the opponent's defense?
So in the next fourth quarter of the game, Osborne will be more proactive, use his speed to get rid of the Spurs' defenders, and then use the cover of his teammates to shoot three-pointers, and when he is in shape, he will be able to shoot consecutive three-pointers to help the Pistons establish a lead.
The Spurs are not in a hurry and are still carrying out their tactical cooperation, but they have strengthened their outside shooting, so the Spurs' offensive firepower has not declined at all, but has increased steadily, and Osborne also knows that the Spurs like to cut people with soft knives the most.
So Osborne no longer hesitates, and is also cautious in the face of Manuginobili's defense, he will not underestimate Manuginobili's defense because of his stature, and if he can gain a foothold in the NBA, the defense will not be too bad, at least the defensive attitude will not be too bad.
Osborne kept changing the running position, and kept using the human wall to get rid of the Spurs players, and then looked for opportunities, and finally Osborne saw Rasheed Wallace standing at a 45-degree angle of the three-point line, and there was just no one at the bottom corner of the three-point line, so Osborne accelerated to get rid of Manuginobili, Manuginobili desperately followed up and could only crash into the body of Rasheed Wallace, who had already stood up, and Osborne ran out of the empty space.
Richard Hamilton, who was in possession at the time, passed directly to Osborne, and Osborne was also very resolute in his three-point shot, at this time Tim Duncan was about to defend it, and Osborne's three-point shot hit accurately.
After Osborne made the three-pointer, he also felt that his shooting touch was about to be returned, so he made a more daring attempt later.
The Spurs' counterattack was also very fast, Manuginobili and Tony Parker teamed up to turn the Pistons' interior upside down, and the Spurs' offensive firepower could keep up with Osborne's scoring pace.
In this way, the scores of the two teams are still stalemate, the score alternates to lead, Osborne keeps providing firepower to the Pistons, but there is still no way for the Pistons to take a big lead, basically you score a goal, I follow a goal, and no one lets anyone.
With three minutes left before the end of the game, the Pistons only led the Spurs by one point, which was very unsafe and the possibility of being killed was high, so Osborne was not satisfied with such a result, and he motioned to the referee to call a timeout.
Osborne said after a timeout: "Guys, you can't lose this game, but now you can't close the distance, it's a big problem, I don't know if you can do anything to take out the Spurs in the last three minutes." ”
Osborne's question, the other players didn't have any good ideas, after all, they should have used it, and they almost shouldn't use it, but they are still good at fighting, but if they play conspiracy, they are really not very good at using it, so everyone fell into silence, seeing that the timeout time was running out little by little, Pistons head coach Larry Brown spoke, "You guys, don't be too anxious, just do your part, you must know that we are actually a championship team and a leader, If you want to worry about it, you should also worry about the Spurs, the game is about to start, just pay attention to the three-point shooting tactics, and you must defend well when defending. ”
After the timeout, Osborne didn't want to think so much, anyway, it was okay to go all out, the Pistons attacked, Chauncey Billups handed the basketball directly to Osborne, and they are now all putting their hopes on Osborne himself.
Osborne didn't dare to delay when he received the basketball, he didn't even have time to make a direct shot with a feint, and Manuginobili didn't have time to defend, so Osborne shot a three-pointer directly and hit it.
Osborne didn't have time to rejoice, though, as Manuginobili in turn gave the Pistons a three-pointer back.
In this way, when it was time for the last offense of the game, the Spurs actually overtook the score and led the Pistons by two points, fortunately the Pistons still had the ball, otherwise the Pistons would definitely kneel, as for whether the Pistons or Osborne can seize the opportunity to succeed, it depends on the final performance of the Pistons players.
