Chapter 160: Defeat
New Orleans is not a very developed city in the United States, and it is already night, and although the night is not deep, the lights here are not too bright.
It's a city that goes to bed early.
The evening breeze was blowing, but it was exceptionally cool under the May sky. Zhong Yu looked at Zhong Rui's thin body, walked over, and touched her head: "Go back and eat more, it's time to grow meat." ”
Zhong Rui looked back at Zhong Yu, smiled, and said, "You're not the same...... Seeing you on the court, wearing a lot of muscles, I'm really worried about you. ”
Zhong Yu spread his hands: "My current figure is perfect, right......?" If you gain one point, you will be fat, and if you lose one point, you will be thin. ”
"Cut...... Flatter yourself. Zhong Rui straightened his nose, and then said, "Go back directly?" ”
"Let's go for a late-night snack!" Zhong Yu waved his hand: "Have a good meal." ”
…………
After back-to-back home wins over the Spurs, the Hornets didn't have much time to rest.
Of course, the same goes for the Spurs.
They are soon starting their third encounter, and while the Hornets have won two games, that certainly doesn't mean they can win this series.
The game is still very long, and there are too many cases in the NBA to lead the opponent by two games at first, but then the opponent has been chased back in a row.
So, of course, the Hornets aren't complacent.
This game will be played on May 10, Yanjing time, and the third game between the Hornets and the Spurs has also touched the hearts of many people.
Zhong Yu will also play well in this game, Zhong Rui will go back to China after the game, and now following them to San Antonio can be regarded as beyond the plan.
In the past few days, Zhong Yu has not practiced, firstly, for the upcoming tragic battle, Zhong Yu also needs to adjust his physical strength, and secondly, Zhong Rui finally came to visit, he wants to take her to have a good visit.
These days, on the whole, Zhong Rui is quite happy.
It's a really nice feeling to be with the people closest to you.
The third clash between the Hornets and the Spurs officially took place on May 10, Yenching time, and the ATT Center, home of the San Antonio Spurs, poured into an angry crowd of nearly 20,000.
Yes, it's the angry spectators, they are quite unhappy with the Spurs' previous two consecutive losses, although as Spurs fans, their love for this team will not fade because of these two games, they are now angry with the Hornets.
This team, which they didn't pay attention to before, suddenly rose this season, and in the first round of the playoffs, they stabbed the Spurs twice.
These two knives made Spurs fans feel quite angry.
Therefore, at the beginning of this game, there was an inexplicable strong smell of gunsmoke in the air. This smell of gunpowder made the Spurs players start to work hard as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
They moved their old arms and legs and began to work hard.
Today's ** Vic used a change of formation, and this change of formation put Ginobili in the starting lineup.
It's not the first time Vic has done this in the starting lineup, but it's a little weird to use that lineup in the playoffs.
At the beginning of the game, Zhong Yu and their previous game were at the home of the Hornets, but this game was at the home of the vicious Spurs.
The atmosphere at the home of the Spurs was quite strong, and as soon as the game began, all sorts of boos and invective filled the ears of every player.
Zhong Yu also heard a lot of abuse of himself, saying that he was a soft egg or something. There were also a lot of people who scolded Paul, some told him to go home to feed, and some told him to come to play after graduating from junior high school......
The game started in such an atmosphere, probably because of the fans' invective, Paul just started with a series of jumpers and throws to score six points, and Jongwook also hit a shot, and the Hornets started the game 8-0.
However, the good times were short-lived, and after the Spurs came back from a timeout, Parker suddenly exploded, first hitting a shot, and then inflicting a two-and-a-one on Paul. But Paul and Zhong Yu returned the favor with two mid-range shots.
The two sides come and go, and the score is still relatively stale.
For a period of time after that, the game between the two sides was mainly a fierce battle between Paul and Zhong Yu, a backcourt combination that had gradually emerged, and the Spurs' three musketeers.
The five people come and go, and although the other people can't talk about being spectators, their performance is indeed not as eye-catching as these people.
The game was played in this way, and both sides played fiercely and tried their best.
At the end of the first quarter, the score of the two sides was 23-21, Zhong Yu scored 8 points in the first quarter, and Paul scored 10 points in the first quarter, and the two men almost accounted for all the Hornets' scores in the first quarter.
Although the Hornets entered the second quarter with a lead, at the beginning of the second quarter, Ginobili led the team to an 8-2 attack wave, and the Hornets were in a critical situation. Paul stepped on the floor at this point and made three straight assists to stabilize the situation, and the second quarter ended with the Hornets continuing to lead by a narrow 56-54 lead.
In this way, the first half of the game is over, and the Hornets today are not playing very well. The Spurs are playing more tenaciously and more methodically, and they no longer seem to be unable to find a way to break the Hornets like they did in previous games.
In such a situation, it looks like the situation of the Hornets today is not going to be much better.
At the start of the second half, Ginobili and Parker combined for six points to tie the score, and Duncan also hit a two-pointer. But at this time, Paul and Zhong Yu broke out, Zhong Yu hit two three-pointers in a row, and these two three-pointers were assists given to him by Paul, and Paul also shot two more shots.
The situation on the Hornets stabilized again, and the two sides entered a tug-of-war, but in the end, Duncan went on a rampage and scored five straight points to end the third quarter 82-78.
The Hornets trailed their opponents by five points heading into the final quarter.
This quarter is the time for the two teams to really face off, this quarter has just begun, Zhong Yu scored two breakthroughs, Peja hit a three-pointer from the periphery, and the Hornets overtook the score.
It's just that Ginobili felt hot and hit two three-pointers in a row, and the two sides entered a tug-of-war again.
But then Bowen suddenly hit a three-pointer, and the Spurs went on a 13-1 run as the fans cheered on each other.
In this way, the Hornets are powerless to recover after this wave of attacks.
In the end, the two sides ended the third game with a score of 110-103, and the Spurs pulled one back at home.
