Lowry made a three-point shot, and He Dong couldn't block through the tall Valanciunas after all, so he could only pay attention and watch the basketball fly to the basket. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Bang!" Perhaps it was the shooting sight of the tall teammates standing in front of him, and Lowry hit a three-point shot this time.
Playing iron is a common thing for players, and Lowry doesn't care, and the Raptors now have a 10-point lead, so there's no need to panic.
Diamond jumped high, struggled to pick up a defensive rebound, and handed the ball to Ho Dong.
Parker rested, Mills rested on the bench, and the point guard had to be done by Ho Dong.
He Dong controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and at this time, his sister-in-law asked for the ball in the low post on the right side, and Simmons was in ambush at 45 degrees from the left three-point line.
He Dong immediately dropped the ball and passed the ball to his sister-in-law, and Lowry, who is 183cm tall, could not block He Dong's pass at all.
The sister-in-law responsible for defending is Siakam, who can only be regarded as a qualified starter in the NBA, and his status in the Raptors' tactics is not high, and his sister-in-law is an old man who has been in the NBA for many years, and immediately began to push forward with his back.
It's just that my sister-in-law is getting old, and her strength is gradually degrading, and in the face of Siakam's defense, she can't advance to the penalty area.
However, this did not have much impact on the sister-in-law, and he had a wide range of shots, so he immediately turned around and stood on tiptoe to show his hook hand.
The soft feel does not degrade with age, the basketball hollows into the net, and the sister-in-law recovers 2 points for the Spurs.
Then Lowry ran out of the open space outside the three-point line to shoot, but it still ended with an iron, He Dong grabbed the defensive rebound and dribbled to the front court to pass to his sister-in-law again.
This time, the sister-in-law lucked a little, and suddenly turned around and chose to break through, you must know that this is rare after the sister-in-law has grown older, bypassing Siakam's body, the sister-in-law turned around and passed it cleanly, and strode towards the basket.
At this moment, the sister-in-law seems to be 10 years younger, interpreting what it means to be an old man and have a thousand miles of ambition.
How could Valanciunas, who was guarding the Raptors' basket, allow his elderly sister-in-law to kill his own basket so easily, and immediately stepped forward to make up for it.
Seeing this situation, the corners of the sister-in-law's mouth raised, and she smiled slightly, he had attracted the attention of the other party, shook his hand, and passed the basketball in his hand to Simmons, who was following the inside.
Simmons originally ambushed at the left three-point line according to the tactical arrangement, and when his sister-in-law burst into the opponent's basket, he immediately chose to cut inside.
After receiving the ball at this moment, Simmons had no one in front of him to make up for it, so he immediately hit the board and shot.
The goal was scored, and the Spurs added 2 more points, and the difference was chased to 6 points.
The Raptors head coach was a little uneasy, and shouted to Lowry on the sidelines: "Stabilize the situation and score a goal according to the tactics!" ”
Lowry understands that someone needs to score a goal to stabilize the situation, and now that the Spurs are starting to build morale after scoring back-to-back points, the Raptors have to deal with it.
Controlling the ball to the front court, facing He Dong's defense, Lowry did not choose to break through by himself, passed the ball to his teammates, patiently organized the attack, and became the commander of the court again.
After a few passes of the ball, the basketball was delivered to Carroll, who was standing in the bottom corner.
A three-point shot from the bottom corner, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, "Bang! The iron struck.
The sister-in-law leaned out and took off the defensive rebound, and then passed it to He Dong.
He Dong quickly controlled the ball to the front court, and it was an opportunity to play a fast attack.
Dribbling to a position near the three-point line, facing Lowry who did not stop, he used European steps to pass it, at this time Valanciunas jumped high behind him to chase the hat from behind, He Dong turned his head slightly, and glanced at Diamond, who followed up and hit the inside, and immediately passed the ball to the back.
Valanciunas pounced, leaving only Lowry in front of Diamond, who received the ball, did not hesitate to take to the air, holding the ball with both hands above his head, and then slammed into the basket.
“and,one!” The referee's whistle blew and the Spurs' home DJ chanted, setting the mood up.
Lowry's stature is still much smaller for Diamond, and standing under the basket is not spared, allowing the latter to complete a 2+1 two-handed dunk.
Diamond, who won the dunk, looked very excited and walked up to He Dong to high-five in celebration.
Diamond also scored on the following free throws to cut the deficit to three points.
Popovich on the sidelines nodded when he saw this scene, and the combination of He Dong and Diamond seemed to have some effect.
However, this is only the first cooperation in the third quarter, and it remains to be tested whether the two will be able to match.
With only 3 points left, DeRozan, who was sitting on the bench, couldn't sit still and took the initiative to ask the head coach to play. But the Raptors head coach waved his hand, signaling him not to rush and trust Lowry to stabilize the situation on the court.
Lowry was also a little unhappy at this time, the previous 10-point lead was shortened to only 3 points under his leadership, and DeRozan played like this at the end of the break, and his face was somewhat unbearable.
He felt like he had to show off his superstar style, taking advantage of his team-mate's pick-and-roll to get into the box and then passing the ball to Valanciunas, who cut down the line.
The latter received the ball, drew the attention of the Spurs' interior defense, and then passed the ball back to Lowry, who was already standing in the middle distance.
Lowry, who received the ball, faced Simmons, who came to make up for the defense, feigned to shoot, tricked the latter into jumping, accelerated into the interior, and with the assistance of his teammates, he wanted to score a layup.
But Lowry forgot about Ho Dong, who had been in charge of defending him.
Seeing that he was about to make a layup with ease, a trace of panic suddenly rose in Lowry's heart, and a black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky, and then he saw an arm poking out from the top of his head, and his fingertips touched the basketball in the process of rising.
The basketball bounced off the rebound, and He Dong completed a pegboard block.
“woooo!” The scene erupted in fierce cheers, He Dong who had the hat just now was too handsome.
Spurs have rarely been able to do this kind of pegboard cap, and Leonard has only been able to do it once in a while. Only Simmons has done it once this season, and that was a spectacular all-court spike and hat chase against Curry.
Now He Dong has also done it once, making the Spurs fans in the stadium cheer for him.
The block was just the beginning, Simmons picked up the ball that was capped outside the box, and He Dong was already running wild at this time.
The former immediately sent a long pass to He Dong's hands.
At this time, Lowry, who was capped, was still chasing after him, and the rest of the Raptors were the same.
With no one in front of him, He Dong received the ball at the three-point line and did not choose to dunk inside, but made a decisive three-point shot.
A dunk is only 2 points, while a three-point shot can score 3 points.
He Dong raised and fell, and the basketball drew a perfect arc in the air, and in the exclamation of the audience, it hollowed into the net.
Three-pointer was made, and the score was tied. The Raptors' 10-point advantage was erased, and the two sides returned to the same line.
