Chapter 364: A Spur Not to Be Underestimated

The Spurs can beat the Lakers, which are made up of the Big Four, in the Western Conference Finals, and naturally they can't be a weak team.

Moreover, this season's Spurs lineup is still neat, and the healthy Spurs three carriages, plus their increasing maturity, have reached the end of the situation.

So Spurs are not so easy to deal with.

And, there's a reason why Spurs aren't that easy to deal with.

In this game, the Spurs could not have used the three carriages, and the second place in the West was determined early.

However, because of this period of time, the Suns are approaching the playoffs, and the adjustment is not extremely appropriate, which also causes the Suns to miss a lot of opportunities that could have been won.

Although the Spurs are also on the bench in the game, their coach is still Popovich, who has a mature system, although the main team is resting, but their combat power is not bad there.

The Spurs are up.

In the final game of the game, the Spurs also tied with the Suns, which is a great thing.

Seeing an opportunity, seeing an opportunity to become the number one in the West, the Spurs generals are like hungry wolves discovering their prey.

To have a chance to be number one in the West, why not?

In the playoffs, the outcome of the game is also related to many factors, among which home advantage is one of them.

It can give the team more chances to win, so why not?

Although the opponent is strong, this is undeniable, but who says that the winner must be the Pacers?

Why not Spurs?

Although it was the Spurs who fought against him, Popovich was still extremely calm. Placid.

Extremely egg-set.

To be honest, he was more reluctant to face the Pistons than against the Pacers.

He's jealous of the Pistons.

The Pistons don't have a shortage of people, they're a perfect whole, no matter what position they are.

Moreover, the coach of the Pistons is also Larry Brown, the famous coach of the league's all-time level.

Able to become the head of the league's history-level fame. This in itself shows that he is a very capable person, otherwise he would not have done this.

Compared to the Pistons, Popovich also thinks that the Pacers rely too much on the ability of the stars, although the fat man is very strong, but Popovich still feels that he can govern him, and he has always believed that basketball is not a one-person sport, but a five-person sport.

He was convinced of that.

Compared to a team like the Pistons, the Pacers are still a little weaker. Popovich thinks.

Although, the regular season can win a lot, but this is just the regular season, it doesn't mean anything, in the playoffs this will be the winner and loser, will see the real chapter.

The playoffs are the litmus test of a team's strength.

Popovich thinks the Pacers are not good because he also thinks that the current core leader of the Pacers is fat, and he has little playoff experience. Is it still a question whether he will be able to win a game like the playoffs in a high-intensity competition.

However, pistons are not the same. The Pistons have defeated the Lakers in the playoffs and won the championship, and this season, the Pistons are still menacing, and the more they get to the back, the more awesome they become. What is certain is that the Pacers will not be easy to deal with.

In the last regular season game against the Pacers, the Spurs also played at a high level.

This is true both offensively and defensively.

Although, in the middle of the game. In order to implement Carlisle's tactical arrangement, the fat man also had reservations during the game.

Reservation is reserved, but the fat man also finds that even if he is extremely serious about playing, he may not be able to easily manipulate the Spurs.

The Spurs are playing under Popovich's system, and their game is very much like a whole, not like a whole, but like a unit, but they are a unit.

The players can also accommodate each other for the overall benefit of the team.

Among them, I have to say that Duncan, the core leader of the Spurs, is a selfless person.

It's really selfless.

As a superstar, he only averaged more than ten shots per game, which is already very rare.

His main job is defense and rebounding, and Spurs No. 2 star Parker has taken more shots than Manu, but he enjoys the role immensely.

It's not that Duncan's attack can't be done.

The person who said that Duncan couldn't attack was absolutely stupid~.

Scoring Duncan is also a unique skill, hitting the board and shooting on the left and right sides of the basket, and the lethality is comparable to that of a shark using his own body to open the way on the inside, and use his body to open the way to wreak havoc on people.

Duncan's skill is also his unique skill.

It has been called nirvana many times, and it has been published in major sports board newspapers for people to learn.

Even if the shark defends this move, the shark does not dare to say that he can defend it.

Duncan can do this, in addition to his own reasons, the main reason is that the coach of their team, Popovich, is also his charm, taming the core of the team into obedience.

There are few people who can enter the NBA to play with a good temper, and there are so many people who obey him, and he is also strictly 100% executed, which is really impossible to do and cannot be completed without any strength.

And this game is also a model for Spurs players to stick to Popovich's intentions.

Duncan inside to contain the fat man, other defense, resolutely do not let the fat man on the inside receive the ball, do not pass the ball to the fat man, you others want to attack, then whatever you want.

Another point is that the Spurs' impact rebounding is also extremely fierce, under the basket, it is also full of Spurs players, guarding the position, and once the Spurs grab the rebound, it is the first time to counterattack, and the counterattack after the defense.

The Spurs belong to a small lineup, and the counterattack after defense is also their characteristic.

Parker and Manu's backcourt, although not at the top level in the league, are definitely the best backcourt, and Parker has the ball in the past. Manu had already reached the end, and after Parker got the ball, he immediately divided the ball, and Manu directly held the ball.

This kind of speed, such a tacit understanding, if it weren't for playing together for a few years. It's hard to do, or it's not possible.

Manu also played high, after holding the ball, he ran straight to the basket, he didn't jump very high, but he came to dunk once.

But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a dunk, it's just a layup.

It's the Spurs' fast break.

In addition to the fast break, the Spurs' half-court offense is also extremely powerful.

Although the Spurs are not like the Pacers, they have super interior lines like Fat Man and Xiao Ao, and they have invincible offensive points. However, their tactics are extremely terrifying, because you don't know who their attack point is, anyone can be the strongest attack point, you don't dare to let go of anyone, no one can let go, once you let go. Then Spurs are the opportunity for an open spot.

That's for sure.

The Spurs were extremely fluid with three passes. The chance didn't come up yet, but the Spurs held on until the chance appeared, and the fourth pass was still non-existent, and there were still 2 seconds left before the 24-second offensive foul. That said, Parker, who had the ball, found no chance and started his fifth pass, and this time the space was completely open.

In the bottom corner of the three-point area, Leopard Print had an open three-pointer. That's a big gap.

Leopard print holds the ball and directly raises his hand to shoot.

The basketball drew a graceful arc in the air, and finally, it smashed into the basket with a crisp sound of "shabu".

The ball goes in.

It's a beautiful fit.

The Spurs will only play so hard when facing a strong defensive team like the Pacers, if it were another team, there would be no need to be so lucky, and the third pass directly, the defensive hole must be big, there is nothing to say.

This can also be seen from the side, and the Pacers really have material on their side.

Although the Spurs' offensive success made Popovich happy for a while, he couldn't be happy when he looked at the Pacers who defended so strongly.

He thought of a lot of things.

He's aiming to win a championship this year, while the Pacers are the opponents they'll have to think about.

Although he believes that the Pistons are stronger than the Pacers, this does not preclude the Pacers from taking out the Pistons and entering the Finals.

With the Pacers' combat power, it is not difficult to achieve this level.

He previously thought that the Pistons' defense was tough, but after watching the Pacers' defense, he also thought that the Pacers' defense was similar to that of the Pistons.

At this time, he was also a little lucky, and at the same time, he also wanted to thank Ben Wallace, if it wasn't for Ben Wallace's punch, the Pacers would have Artest, the league's best defensive player, on the front line.

If Artest is here, then this walker is terrifying.

No matter what position there is, there is no shortage of people, and there are also some capable existences in these positions, and the bench depth is extremely strong, how can you play in this game in the face of such a Pacer?

It's not playable at all.

It's not playable.

However, fortunately, in the position of the Pacers, there is no Artest as a defensive giant, which also makes Popovich breathe a sigh of relief.

Artest's presence and absence are not the same thing.

Looking at the walkers on the field, Popovich also smiled proudly.

Popovich also issued a code, and after the Spurs players got the order, they immediately carried it out.

The Spurs are also specifically looking for Jones to play.

And on the defensive end, it's up to leopard print to deal with him.

Leopard print, don't look at his mediocre talent, but, under Popovich's tutelage~, his defensive skills have also increased greatly.

Leopard print directly locked Jones to death, and his various small actions also made Jones eager to kill Leopard Print, and he almost fought several times, but fortunately, the Pacers' teammates moved fast enough, otherwise it was hard to say.

Jones is still too young, and it is extremely normal for an old ball ruffian like Leopard to suffer.

Although he was taught a lesson and repaired, it was not necessarily a good thing for him.

At the very least, he won't be blinded by victory.

Seeing Jones react like this, after being angered by leopard print, his mood fluctuated a little, thinking about how to find the field, his brain was hot, and his shot was a little messy.

Seeing Jones's reaction like this, the fat man also felt that Carlisle was extremely professional, and he was right.

There are too many newcomers on the Pacers' side, and there are still too few things to experience.

This is also more determined that the fat man wants to release water in this game and let them experience more failures, which is a good thing for them.

It's a shame to lose now, but if the Pacers don't have time to adjust if they lose in those crucial battles of the playoffs, it's no joke.

Before entering the playoffs, the Pacers are going to make their opponents official, which is still extremely necessary, extremely necessary.

Nothing is more important than that.

Except for Jones's side, this guy Martial Saint is okay to fight, a boxing champion-level player, but when he meets Parker, who is faster than him, he can't use his strength.

Parker doesn't play with his body, but with him speed, skill, and the physical confrontation he likes, but not at all.

There was no physical confrontation at all.

It's all about speed.

Parker is very fast, and the Martial Saint can't catch up.

It is also said that Parker's skills have also reached the level of perfection, and once the martial saint was shaken down.

The martial saint was even more furious, and he couldn't wait for a hand-to-hand fight with Parker.

Brain fever, foul play.

Not long after the game started, there were three fouls.

How can he play this game?

So many fouls.

In addition to the Martial Saint, Xiao Ao's situation is not much better.

Xiao Ao played against his idol Duncan in this game.

As soon as he met Duncan, he lost his normal heart.

The whole person is like a chicken blood, full of fighting spirit and full of vitality, trying to kill Duncan to prove himself.

Moderate excitement is a good thing, but excessive excitement is not a good thing.

If you get excited, and the amplitude of your movements increases, then it's over.

Duncan was taught by Popovich, and you say he doesn't know that, do you think it's possible?

It's impossible, it's impossible.

This thing can't be.

Duncan also caught it twice and made an offensive foul on O's.

In addition, Duncan directly knocked off Xiao Ao twice, which made him angry.

I'm in a hurry to get back on the field.

But how could the field be so easily recovered?

It's not going to be so easy to get back.

Duncan wasn't a vegetarian.

People are still in peak condition, how can it be so simple for a junior to come to the field?

Originally, the fat man felt that he should put some water and let the Spurs win, but looking at the current situation, don't say that he doesn't release water, even if he does his best in the game, he may not be able to take down the Spurs.

It can be seen that the task of helping the Pacers win the championship this season is not so easy.

Thinking of this, the fat man also had to tighten his heart again.

(The playoffs are about to begin, and the big guys give some recommendations, monthly passes and other things to support it.) ）
