took the lead 2:0 over the Spurs, giving the Hornets an absolute upper hand, and the Spurs were directly forced to a dead end by the Hornets.

There has only been one time in history when the playoffs have been able to turn around after falling behind 3-0, and that is the Lakers in the 11th season, and there has never been anything else, even the rock-solid Spurs, who have no confidence.

In other words, if the Spurs lose again in the third game, it means that the Spurs are in this position in this year's playoffs.

The Spurs are aiming for the championship this year, how can they be willing to lose in the Western Conference Finals?

So basically don't think about it, in the third game between the two sides, the Hornets will definitely usher in a crazy counterattack by the Spurs.

"What's worse is that the home game is San Antonio." Wang Meng looked at the night scene outside the window with sleepy eyes, and at the same time looked at Auden, who was arranged in the same room with him, this girl was snoring like thunder at this moment, which was also one of the important reasons why Wang Meng had not fallen asleep yet. "The citizens of the Holy City are also fanatical fans, and at night guys like Oden don't dare to go out and fool around, for fear that someone will stab them."

"It's nothing, our rooms should be single, why don't the hotels in San Antonio even make money in order to support the home team? Can only be allocated to such a standard double room? Wang Meng no longer has the strength to complain.

In fact, Wang Meng thought a lot, this is not the choice of the hotel manager to support the Spurs, but a large number of fans deliberately, they also know that it is impossible to book all the housing in advance and not let the Hornets move in, so they are very smart to book all the single rooms, and finally leave just the right number of double rooms, in order to make the Hornets players uncomfortable.

It is true that teams usually book rooms in advance for games, but this advance is also limited in the playoffs, and how should the Hornets book a room before determining the opponent in the Western Conference Finals? Both the Thunder and the Spurs? So we can only wait for the end of the game between the two sides to make a ticket booking.

But the fans on the Spurs side don't have this limitation, because no matter what team they play with, they always have to stay in San Antonio, and many people colluded early in advance to book most of the rooms in the slightly larger hotel in San Antonio.

San Antonio is not a particularly big city, and there are not many luxury hotels for NBA players to stay.

"It's really despicable, this trick can't be used in New Orleans, it's really" Wang Meng thought more and more depressed, unlike San Antonio, although New Orleans, the city where the wasps are located, is often hit by hurricanes, but after all, it is the second largest port city in the country, and there are dozens of luxury hotels, even if you want to book them all, you need to spend a lot of money, which is not realistic at all.

Of course, the lack of hotel rooms is not all caused by people, and there are many fans who come to the Holy City to watch the Hornets and Spurs play, and during this time of the playoffs every year, the local hotel business will be very good if the team that participates in the playoffs.

"It's really unfortunate, it looks like I'm going to sleep with headphones on." Wang Meng shook his head helplessly, he had also tried to wake up Oden, but within two minutes the snoring sounded again.

"Ah~~!" Wang Meng hit a big Hache, and sat on the stool a little depressed to change his team uniform.

"What's the matter, Wang Meng? Didn't sleep well yesterday? Auden came over, this girl is good, and she is full of energy, "This is not good, how can you play a good game without sufficient physical strength?" What did you do yesterday and didn't sleep properly? ”

"Get out!" Wang Meng glanced at Auden and scolded angrily.

Auden scratched his head, a little inexplicable.

At this time, Monty came in from outside the locker room.

"Are you all ready? This is the third game, if we win this game, we will not have as much suspense as if we advance to the finals, and I have said it countless times, so I don't want to talk nonsense with you! Monty put his hands behind his back and said in a serious and loud voice: "I want to win this game!" Right on the home of the Spurs, San Antonio! Do you understand! ”

"Understood!" The Wasps roared.

"Get on the field!"

"It's Game 3 of the Hornets vs. Spurs, and I'm Smith." Smith and Barkley broadcast the game live as always, "Although it is the third game, the Hornets have a 2-0 lead over the Spurs, and if this game is won again, the Spurs will basically lose the game." ”

But the Spurs fans are really "enthusiastic", you see, how good they greet the Hornets players one by one. Barkley said with a smile.

Smith: ""

"Forget it, no kidding, the Spurs will definitely fight back desperately in this game, can the Hornets successfully block the Spurs' counterattack? We've received the starting line-ups for both sides, and the Hornets haven't changed their starters, but the Spurs have made a slight change, and the starting scoring guard Green has been replaced by Ginobili, and it seems that they will have to use all their strength to gain the upper hand from the beginning. Barkley continued.

The whistle blows and the game begins.

Oden outplayed Yao Ming in this jump ball and preemptively dialed the ball to Wang Meng.

The Hornets started the first attack with Wang Meng.

In terms of single defense, none of the Spurs players can defend themselves, and the Spurs can only take care of themselves on the inside, so the outside line is the best offensive angle for themselves, which Wang Meng knows very well.

On the first ball, Wang Meng used a ** naked dry pull jump shot, Parker tried his best to interfere with Wang Meng, but Wang Meng's hand felt very good in this game, and the first ball was easily hit.

At 3:0, the fierce competition for the third game between the two sides officially began.

The situation of the game was as Wang Meng expected, because they were cornered by the Hornets, the Spurs players looked very crazy, whether it was on the offensive or defensive end, they played this style. Parker can't break through Wang Meng's defense, so he will hand it over to Ginobili, and if Ginobili can't do it, he will hand it over to Duncan or Yao Ming on the inside, even if he does not hesitate to consume a lot of physical strength, he will bite the score to death. What saves physical strength, what veterans are prone to injury, at this moment has been completely abandoned by the Spurs' group of guys, even Duncan, who has always been as steady as a mountain, can hardly hide his madness.

"Spurs are really desperate." Looking at the game on the court, Barkley couldn't help but sigh: "Look at Duncan, almost go all out and play with all his strength, Gasol's defense is so difficult, Duncan can still score continuously on Gasol's head, even if he is 36 years old, Duncan still has the strength of the league." ”

"It's just that with Duncan's current physical strength, how long can that attack last?" Smith shook his head, "I didn't expect Duncan to be so old, his mind is not as mature as when he was young, wasting his physical strength too early will only put the Spurs in a more troublesome situation, as the rock of the Spurs for many years, Duncan shouldn't make such a mistake, even if he is always wrong anyway, why didn't Vicky stop him?" ”

"Not really." Barkley shook his head and said to Smith: "He also knows that if he continues like this, his physical strength will be greatly depleted, and he will soon be unable to hold on to the field, but he must do this, because the current Spurs' GDP can only rely on him." Parker was comprehensively suppressed by Wang Meng, Ginobili was languishing, and now the Spurs are in their twilight years. ”

"To put it bluntly, this year can be said to be the Spurs' last chance to win the championship, and finally reach the Western Conference Finals, and it only takes 14 games at most to end everything, so how can Duncan be willing? Duncan has played nearly 1,000 games in his life, and these 14 games are likely to be the last 14 games for him, and according to his current strength and age, although it is possible to continue to play, it will certainly not be as close to the championship as it is now. ”

As a player who has been chasing championships all his life, Barkley understands very well what it is like to be so close to the championship, and he also knows that although Duncan already has several championship rings, he is definitely in the same mood as Barkley at the moment. In contrast, Smith, who has won two championship rings with Olajuwon and has not had much to show for in his career, is hard to understand.

As the head coach of the Spurs, of course, Vicky also knows that this is not a way, but Vicky has not folded, although there are many Spurs tactics, but the most important and effective tactics are arranged around Parker and Duncan inside and outside, and now Parker is suppressed by Wang Meng, even if his teammates provide blocking and dismantling, he can't completely get rid of Wang Meng, the offensive efficiency is extremely low, and it is not as high as the efficiency of other players looking for opportunities to shoot three-pointers, in this case, Vicky has no good way to deal with it.

"That guy, it's just a bug, a guy who is even more buggy than James, can't anyone stop him now?" Looking at Wang Meng, even ** Wei couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration.

**Vicky has been coaching for so many years, it's not that he hasn't seen invincible players, James who is now at his peak, Iverson at the peak of the year, Carter in the demigod era, Kobe Bryant who is a few years younger, and Maddie who makes the whole Spurs team helpless, but no matter how strong they are, no matter how they can control the game, they can't play at a super level every time, and there are always weaknesses if they are players, or poor outside shooting, or lack of breakthrough ability, or weak defensive skills, no matter what, There is always a way to contain them, O'Neal was given a headache by the shark cutting tactics, and Jordan was continuously blocked from the championship by Jordan's law, but Wang Meng seemed to have no weakness at all.
