310, the rhythm of the Spurs winning the championship
Duncan's eyes widened, and his facial expression didn't change the entire time.
No one could understand his mood at this time, at least Wu Di didn't know what this cute big man was thinking.
You know, Duncan directly blocked Milicic in the ball just now, that kind of situation should have been full of passion, but the stone Buddha didn't have any expression from beginning to end.
Looking at Duncan, who was extremely calm, Wu Di was surprised in his heart, is this guy really stupid, or is he pretending to be stupid.
The cheers of the SBC home stadium had no effect on him, and it suddenly made people feel that Duncan should not be satisfied with his appearance.
The first half of the game was Duncan's nightmare, especially in the second quarter, when he was completely reduced to the background of Wu Di, which made it impossible for him to rejoice.
In fact, not only Duncan, but everyone on the Spurs' side is a supporting role, because the second quarter is completely Wu Di's stage and table moment.
However, Duncan seemed to regain his vitality after the half-time break, and he walked out of the nightmare space created by Wu Di.
In the second half of the game, Duncan played the inside, and as of the goal of Milicic just now, Duncan has scored 12 consecutive points for the Spurs.
The powerful attacking ability shows the basket skills that Shi Buddha has honed day after day, and it is clear that this group of young insiders will not put much pressure on him at all.
Wu Di was surprised by Duncan's ability to adjust, you must know that near the end of the first half, Duncan's mood was obviously problematic, but in just one halftime, he actually adjusted, which was really surprising from the bottom of my heart.
"Tim has the most terrifying mentality and mentality. That's why he got a foothold in the NBA so easily. He already has three championship rings in his hand. This is the greatest proof of himself that he is. Apparently. Wu Di's previous brutality could not have repelled him lightly, and now, Tim has returned strongly. ”
This is the shape of the game at this time, you know, Duncan's strong return means that the Raptors are in trouble.
After Duncan scored 12 points in a row, the Spurs had taken a 60-59 lead, which made people sigh. This finals is really full of twists and turns.
Truthfully, for everyone who witnessed the game, it wasn't one-sided at all.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, that one-sided situation is really impossible, after all, the Spurs and the Raptors are not so easy to deal with each other.
If Wu Di is the biggest support of the Raptors, then on the Spurs' side, the biggest hole card is Duncan.
Even if Duncan is silent on the court, or he always seems to be low-key, so that you don't realize his existence.
But. Honestly, no one would dare to underestimate him in such a crucial match. Or ignore him.
You know, in Duncan's playoff career, he played too many kinds of tables that were arrogant on the inside, such as a quasi-quadruple-double, such as averaging 30+17 per game in a single season...... And so on, a qiē shows his terrifying personal ability.
Therefore, although Wu Di is too cruel in Duncan, but in his heart, Wu Di does not have any contempt for Duncan, on the contrary, the more Wu Di tries his best to express himself in front of Duncan, then it can only be said that Wu Di attaches too much importance to Duncan.
At the start of the second half, Duncan played hard with his own deterrent, which allowed the Spurs to quickly turn the tide of passivity.
Although Wu Di wanted to defend Duncan in person, he didn't have the opportunity to do so, after all, the two were not in the right place.
However, as the league's leading scorer, Wu Di knew what to do.
Livingston took the ball across the half court, and when he saw Wu Di reach for the ball, he immediately threw the basketball over.
Wu Di asked for the ball, and the defender Ginobili was very active, he reached out to interfere, but Wu Di was tall and long-armed, and directly against his body, he easily received the ball in his hand.
When Wu Di took the ball, the fans at the scene let out a slightly nervous breathing sound.
Obviously, throughout the playoffs, Wu Di has perfectly interpreted the lethality that a super scorer should have, efficiency, victory, and counting, which Wu Di can bring.
Looking at Ginobili with a serious face, Wu Di stood up straight and did not take action immediately.
But that wasn't enough to dispel Ginobili's defensive concerns, and he was well aware of Wu Di's attacking methods.
Many people wonder if Wu Di will pull out a jump shot on Ginobili's head, after all, in their opinion, Wu Di really needs to score, after all, he still hasn't scored a point in the entire second half.
When everyone was thinking crankily, Wu Di moved.
Under the slight undetectable movement of Wu Di's body, Ginobili's footsteps had moved rapidly.
Ginobili's reaction did not make people think that he was not good defensively, on the contrary, his prediction was very good, and it also blocked Wu Di's way.
You must know that in this playoffs, Wu Di showed his first lightning step, so defending Wu Di can only predict the block in advance.
The basketball was controlled by Wu Di in his hand, and he was surprised that Ginobili actually prevented his breakthrough.
However, of course, Wu Di would not give up, only to see his body move again, and the whole person rushed to the other side of Ginobili's defense.
Ginobili nervously retreated, but at the moment when he retreated like this, Wu Di had already risen from the ground.
"I still can't prevent it! Wu Di's pull-up jump shot. ”
There was a slight helplessness in the surprise, and although Ginobili subconsciously got up to block, everyone could find that that kind of defense could not play any role in interference at all.
The basketball brush fell into the net bag, and suddenly a wave flew out, showing the charm of the ball.
Wu Di looked at Ginobili with a gloomy face, although the two had a good personal relationship, Wu Di didn't mind hitting him at this time: "There is no defense at all, I like to listen to this kind of voice, shmmm~"
Wu Di's joke made Ginobili more and more depressed, although he wanted to keep Wu Di clean in this quarter, but obviously, this was his wishful thinking, Wu Di still scored.
After scoring 2 points, Wu Di's personal score came to 24 points, although it was not as violent as the previous game, but it was still extremely good.
Although Ginobili failed to defend, he assisted Parker on a three-pointer in the next round, which dissipated his frustration a little.
And for Wu Di, when his offensive feeling comes, he will not give up his chance to attack.
In his career philosophy, only when the opponent feels the pressure, then the initiative will come to their side, and he can play a little easier.
In the ensuing game, Wu Di began to attack with the ball, and his choice was not to shoot like he did in the first attack, but to go more inside.
The main reason for this is that Wu Di found that Duncan was too much of a threat in this quarter, and it was obvious that he had to go inside more to fight for a little space for his teammates to survive.
However, when it was found that Wu Di was more offensive with the ball, the Spurs' defense was obviously more targeted.
Wu Di hit the inside line many times, but the efficiency is not particularly high, but he can still score goals, after all, his breakthrough ability is much stronger than before.
However, when Wu Di felt helpless, Duncan's offensive efficiency was too amazing.
By the time the third quarter was over, Duncan had scored 14 points in a single quarter, and his efficiency was a terrifying 6-of-8.
The tough attacking attitude has kept the Spurs in the driver's seat, and the advantage has been firmly in their hands as a result.
Watching Duncan abuse Milicic who was opposite him, Wu Di knew in his heart that this cute big man should be really angry, although there was no expression on his face, but under that calm appearance, there was definitely a volcanic heat.
And Duncan played like that, Wu Di wanted to find some way to contain him, after all, this big man played a feeling on the inside, so this threat was too big.
Judging from the entire first half of the game, Duncan's play clearly played his leadership power, and the Spurs also played a very good half quarter under his leadership.
And more importantly, after Duncan formed a containment on the inside, the rest of the Spurs offense was significantly more efficient.
This is a situation that both the home fans and Popovich would love to see, after all, if they hold the lead like this, then their hopes of winning the title are one step closer.
In the interval between the timeouts, Collins arranged for Gortat and Milicic to play a trap defense against Duncan, which made Wu Di feel that something seemed inappropriate.
But Collins is the head coach after all, and Wu Di naturally can't question it for no reason.
But in the ensuing game, Gortat and Milicic clearly failed to defend Duncan.
They overlooked Duncan's playmaking ability, considering that the Spurs' No. 4 position was Robert Horry, and this guy was not a negligible threat on the offensive end.
When the two interior players go to trap Duncan, if the timing is not good, Duncan chooses to pass the ball more often, and he doesn't have any strong fighting posture.
And under his strategy, the Spurs' advantage on the court gradually became bigger.
For Wu Di, seeing the Spurs' gradually increasing scores, he began to have a sense of urgency in his heart.
However, at this time, or under the pressure brought by Duncan, Wu Di's offensive efficiency was obviously affected.
And as a result, the Raptors' offense seems to be in trouble.
When the third quarter ended, the Spurs actually led by 8 points at 77:69, that is, the Spurs actually played a single quarter score of 35:19.
For Wu Di, although he contributed 9 points in a single quarter, it was obviously a little useless.
When the morale of the Raptors dropped sharply, and when the Spurs' morale was high and they entered the fourth quarter with an eight-point lead, some people began to feel that the Spurs' posture was going to win the championship in one go.
"The Spurs were totally at a championship-winning pace, and they completely overpowered the Raptors, and it seemed like a turning point in this game." (To be continued......)
