"Let's go, let's go" At the beginning of the second half of the game, Nets coach Coach Johnson clapped his palms to encourage the players who were about to play, and finally did not forget to remind the tall and strong, "Hit them under the basket more".

"Good!" The Nets players also replied confidently that trailing by 8 points in the first half was not a big problem, and it was pulled back in the second half, and the ten-game winning streak gave the Nets a lot of confidence.

But at this time, the Nets players did not realize that they were facing the Spurs, the oldest and hottest team in the league.

"Slap" The Nets took the lead in attacking, and the ball passed to the hands of Gao Da Zhuang at the top of the three-point arc, and at this moment Gao Da Zhuang found that the Spurs defending him became Leonard.

At this time, Gao Dazhuang found that the Spurs had adjusted the lineup on the court, and in the third quarter, the Spurs basically maintained their main lineup, but replaced the starting point guard Green with the more attacking Ginobili.

"Someone else to defend me? So what" Tall and strong did not shake his confidence because of the adjustment of the Spurs defenders, especially Coach Johnson's tactical arrangement in the midfield, many of which are premised on tall and strong breaking through and tearing apart the opponent's defense.

"Bang", "Bang" Tall and strong moved, after two consecutive crotch dribbles, Tall and Strong accelerated violently, but when he was about to break through from Leonard's flank, Gao Dazhuang suddenly dribbled with a backhand, and the ball instantly transferred to the other side of the tall and strong side, and then Gao Dazhuang changed direction with the trend, and instantly flashed Leonard's defense.

In fact, Leonard's height is slightly higher than that of Tall Strong, and his physical fitness and strength are not inferior to Tall Strong. But in terms of speed, it is clear that tall and strong occupy a certain advantage.

After breaking through the Spurs' defense head-on, the tall and strong took advantage of the situation to get to the basket, but the Spurs' ace Duncan's defensive positioning was quite good, and he quickly blocked most of the offensive space of the tall and strong.

Gao Dazhuang made a decisive choice, very calmly dodged Duncan's block with a jump step and sideways, and then picked up a basket with one hand, but as soon as the ball was shot, the afterglow of Gao Dazhuang's eyes suddenly caught a palm behind him.

Although the palm of the hand did not intercept the rising basketball, it was obvious that the fingers still hung on the basketball and changed the trajectory of the ball rising.

"When" is under the interference of the other party. A tall and strong layup bounced out of the basket. Duncan then picked up the rebound.

"Who?" The tall man turned his head sharply with doubts, only to realize that it was Kaulvay Leonard who had just interfered with his shot.

"Good long arms", at this time, the tall and strong found that this guy who was more than 2 meters tall had a pair of arms that were disproportionate to his figure, and it was his long arms that interfered with the tall and strong layup.

But fortunately, the Spurs' Ginobili offense also bounced out of the basket under the interference of the Nets' Wallace. Humphries grabs the rebound. The Nets took advantage of the situation and launched a counterattack.

"Slap" tall and strong has always been the Nets' first choice for offense. But as soon as the tall and strong man passed the half, Leonard posted it, and he was very experienced. did not rush forward, but always kept a certain distance from the tall and strong.

But now Tall Zhuang's offensive means are very comprehensive, and he doesn't necessarily have to hit the basket every ball, seeing Leonard's position obviously behind, at this time, Tall and Strong suddenly made a sudden stop when he rushed to the three-point line, and directly shot three points.

At the moment when Gao Dazhuang made a three-point shot, a palm was directly sealed on Gao Dazhuang's face, blocking Gao Dazhuang's sight, although the ball was still shot smoothly, but Gao Dazhuang was obviously still affected a little.

Gao Dazhuang frowned and looked at the basketball flying to the basket, "dang", Gao Dazhuang secretly said that he was unlucky, and his shot bounced out of the basket again.

"Damn, this guy's defense is really good, damn gibbon" looked at Leonard standing opposite, tall and strong couldn't help but curse in his heart, but on the other side, he ran to the Nets half court with a calm expression, worthy of being a young player of the Spurs, and even his expression was exactly the same as Duncan.

The Nets missed the offense, the Spurs immediately launched a counterattack, Parker rushed directly into the Nets basket with the ball, and after attracting multiple defenders, he distributed the ball to Ginobili who followed up, Ginobili hit the basket again after receiving the ball, but when the Nets players wrapped him, he once again chose to divide the ball.

This time the ball passed to Duncan, who was unguarded near the free throw line, Duncan made a decisive shot, and with a "snap", Duncan's half-volley rebounded into the net after hitting the board.

57：47

Duncan's shot stretched the Spurs to 10 points.

"Don't rush, run, cover, cover, yes, that's it" Nets head coach Johnson stood on the sidelines and shouted to the conductor, although he said he was not in a hurry, his expression betrayed him.

This is the home of the Spurs, and against the league's oldest team, if they fall behind too much in the third quarter, there's a good chance that the fourth quarter will go straight to garbage time, because the Spurs are rarely overturned when they are leading by a large margin.

The Nets attacked, and its Brooks made a blocking and pick-and-roll cooperation with Tall and Strong at a 45-degree angle on the wing, but Leonard's handling was quite in place, and Brooks's cover barely affected him.

However, the tall and strong still deceived Leonard's center of gravity with a dotted probe, and at this time, the tall and strong accelerated and broke through Leonard's flank in an instant.

"Peng", but the tall and strong just crossed Leonard's defense, but he didn't notice that the Spurs point guard Parker had already stood behind Leonard's side, and the tall and strong sudden strong burst directly knocked the thin Parker away.

At this time, the referee's whistle sounded in time, "offensive foul", and the referee on duty did not hesitate to give Gao Dazhuang an offensive foul.

In the first half, Gao Dazhuang had two defensive fouls, plus this offensive foul, Gao Dazhuang had already committed 3 fouls in this game, but at this moment Coach Johnson did not have the courage to replace Gao Dazhuang.

Now that the Spurs are playing a terrifying defense, and their fast rotation makes it rare for the Nets to get open shots, Coach Johnson is categorically afraid to replace the tallest man with the most breakthrough ability.

The Spurs served quickly. The continuous passing was dazzling, Parker's quick break easily tore the Nets' defense, and with a "brush", Parker scored another goal for the Spurs with a high toss.

59：47

The Nets suddenly stopped attacking in the entire third quarter, Leonard stuck to the tall and strong, and the tall and strong chose to shoot several long shots and bounced out of the basket, and every time they finally broke through to the opponent's interior, the Spurs' Duncan and others' positions and assistance defense were quite in place.

Tall and strong didn't have no way to deal with the difficult situation, but his few beautiful breakaway shots were also wasted by his teammates, and Brooks, Wallace and Humphries felt as cold as tall and strong.

Unlike the Nets. The Spurs' offense was a no-brainer. In fact, the current Spurs, if not the worst in the league, are almost at the bottom of the league, and if the game can only be played one by one, the Spurs are estimated to not be able to beat more than half of the teams in the league. But. They relied on their own onion-like attacks. It's hard to make the opponent tormented and dizzy.

The Spurs' offense is always divided into several steps, and the first reaction after winning the rebound in the backcourt must be to look for a fast break opportunity, if there is no very good fast opportunity in the frontcourt. They will instead accelerate their push to see if they can switch offenses and find opportunities for their opponents to gain a firm foothold, and if they don't have either of these points, then they will seek to fall into positional warfare.

When it comes to positional battles, the Spurs have too many routines, and you can see the tactical routines that can be used on the basketball court in their games.

The offensive tactics of the Spurs pay attention to the word "movement", less confrontation and more empty cuts, emphasizing opportunities, reducing strong attacks, and paying great attention to the fluency of the ball.

Ginobili a "serpentine break" to get rid of the tall and strong defense to the basket, at this time the Nets Smith, Humphries and Wallace immediately retracted, although facing the defense of the three, but in fact, the three of the Nets did not form a circle of momentum, Ginobili had a chance to shoot, but the shooting rate will certainly not be high, so he decisively chose to divide the ball.

Leonard, who received a pass from Ginobili, did not choose to go hard, but gave the ball to Parker in the gap on the right side, and in the middle of the three-second zone, Parker found an opportunity to throw easily, and with a "brush", Parker's throw hit the basket again.

Another feature of the Spurs' offense is full participation, in their positional battles, you don't see someone in the whole wave of offense and stay in one position, even the pitcher who is in ambush outside the three-point line must run from the other side through the air cut to the side and wait for an opportunity.

The Spurs' tactics tend to be with players on both sides moving at the same time, with Parker receiving the ball at the top of the three-point arc, Ginobili and Leonard cutting from one side to the opposite side at the same time, and two interior screeners allowing them to run to the opposite wing.

Parker decisively passed the ball to Leonard, who had a slightly better chance on the right side, but just when everyone thought that Leonard would make a jumper, Leonard knocked the ball directly to Ginobili without any pause.

Ginoby used his signature jumper to get the ball through the Nets.

Although the Nets also tried to attack a few times, they didn't have a "basket" on the outside, and they couldn't break through the defense of Duncan and others on the inside, and the Nets' offense fell into a quagmire for a while.

However, when the Spurs successfully defended Duncan, the offense had already begun, and Parker and Ginobili scored one after another on the counterattack.

Here I have to mention the irreplaceable role of "Stone Buddha" Duncan in the Spurs' conversion system, and the team's fast break is generally initiated by the point guard or other guards.

Often, the backcourt rebounds are collected in the hands of the interior first, so this often has to go through a step of giving the ball to the point guard inside, while in the Spurs, this step can be completely omitted, and Duncan's wide vision and unique passing skills allow him to launch a fast break like a point guard.

So we have seen Duncan more than once grabs the rebound and looks directly at the frontcourt, and then a precise one-arm or two-handed direct pass, the Spurs easily counterattack and score,

After a barrage of bombardment, the Spurs unleashed a 15-0 attack wave at the start of the third quarter to rewrite the score to 70-47 in one fell swoop.

At this time, Nets coach Johnson finally couldn't sit still, "The Nets asked for a timeout"

"Wow" The entire Spurs home AT&T Center suddenly remembered the warm applause and cheers, which were given to the Spurs by the home fans, but these voices were so harsh in the ears of tall and strong Nets players.

The Spurs' offensive tactics are too rich, and the Nets coach Johnson can't change anything in a short period of time, so during the timeout, he just kept boosting the team's morale, and looked at the tall and strong with an expectant look, in his opinion, only the tall and strong can change the pattern on the court now, and he can't think of a second person who can be trusted.
