Chapter 901: Duncan's Moment

Pelicans and Spurs three games, Pelicans 3-0 Spurs.

No one thought that this would be the case, not even Duncan, and today's ATT arena is filled with an atmosphere of grief and indignation.

From the players, to the fans, from the stadium to the DJ, it seems that everyone has a whole barrel of explosives hidden in their hearts.

DJ shouted the names of the players in a sad voice, and the Pelicans' starters did not change at all, still point guard Rose, scoring guard Arenas, small forward Li Feng, power forward Millsap, and center Henson.

The ATT arena greeted every Pelicans player, no matter who it was, with a natural boo.

And when the Spurs players played, these San Antonios greeted their heroes with a glowing cheer, which you could say was a little unfair, but don't forget that people are born unequal.

Still serving as the commentator today is Hubie Brown, and the other guest is Pelicans veteran Tyron Boggs.

"Tyrone, how does it feel to see your parent team? Is this a key stop for them? ”

Hubbie Brown asked Tyron Boggs first.

"It's a little bit of a thrill, yes, a little bit of excitement, when I was in New Orleans, we go through a lot of these games every year, and it's kind of sad to think about it."

Tyrone Boggs looked at the arena carefully and said.

"Yes, this is the fourth game of the round between the Pelicans and the Spurs, and the first three games the Pelicans won in this one where the Spurs are screaming for revenge. Let's follow the game, both teams have already kicked off in halftime. ”

As Hubbie Brown spoke, Duncan and Henson began to scramble for the ball in the center circle.

A player's initiative is brought into full play. There will be a big gap with his usual general table, which can generally be seen from the player's and the same year and the usual table, and the same year's table will generally be higher for a while, and there are also deliberately suppressed by the team in the same year.

In short, today's Duncan is not dying, and he wants everyone in the United States to refocus their attention on himself.

So as soon as the ball kicked off, Duncan used all his strength to pick the basketball at once, and the opening was a hard fight.

Duncan put the basketball in Parker's hands, and the Spurs didn't play a weird opening game today. Point guard Parker, shooting guard Ginobili, small forward Leonard. Power forward Dior, center Duncan.

At this time, he dribbled lightly to protect the basketball and did not give Rose a chance. Brought basketball to the Pelicans' halfcourt. At this time, the Spurs' start was no different from before.

The Spurs are very complicated in their half-court movement in order to find an offensive position for Duncan in the low post, which both teams know, but if you don't know exactly how the Spurs will do it, you still can't stop them from doing it.

After Duncan gave Leonard a cover in the low post, he took advantage of the situation to suddenly take advantage of the Pelicans' low post position.

At this time, the Spurs' half-court arrangement was also over, in order to cooperate with Duncan. The shooter pulls out the space and the passer comes out to respond. The preparation for grabbing rebounds in the back, in short, the first shot of the Spurs, the front played beautifully, and finally it depends on Duncan.

As mentioned earlier, Duncan finally got the basketball when he came with all his firepower today, and this Duncan really couldn't wait any longer, and after a glance, the offensive conditions were already there.

Duncan sat down violently on Henson's body, Henson felt as if he had been hit by a battering ram, his whole chest was stuffy, he could barely breathe, the first time Henson was a little unbearable, but the second Duncan immediately hit him again.

"Er" Henson let out a roar of pain from his throat.

Wang Teng looked at the sidelines at this time, and he understood that Duncan was going crazy at the beginning, so Henson might not be able to bear it, although Duncan is old, although the body is not good, but the Spurs have reached a dead end, and it doesn't matter if the body is gone.

Sure enough, Henson couldn't stop Duncan at all, Duncan knocked Henson twice and lost his center of gravity, and then turned around and smashed a dunk on top of the basket.

"Bang dang!"

The basket shook violently back and forth, and Henson clutched his chest.

Duncan smashed the Pelicans' basket at the beginning, and at this time, the entire ATT arena also raised morale at once, cheering loudly in the audience, Duncan ran while waving from the stands, trying to attract everyone's attention.

"This guy looks 20 years younger today, and it looks like he's really stimulated."

Tyron Boggs said to Hubie Brown as he looked at Duncan.

"Yes, but he keeps it for a maximum of 30 minutes."

Hubby-Brown was helpless about Duncan's expression, but said there was nothing he couldn't beat.

The Spurs' first offense is a strong inside line, but after the Pelicans came over, it was like a gentle drizzle, the whole team ran smoothly and smoothly, and finally the ball went to Li Feng's hands.

Li Feng took the back to play, and it was misplaced, and he came up directly to eat Ginobili, and the Pelicans' offensive choice was a bit interesting.

There are a lot of points that can be hit on foot, but when you come up, you can eat Ginobili, this is ill-intentioned, Li Feng dribbled two steps, turned around and turned around, the basketball did not go in, and flew out.

But at this time, Hubbie Brown and Popovich secretly shouted in their hearts:

"Insidious."

Why do you say that, if the Pelicans start to focus on Ginobili as a key target, then after a long time, Ginobili's body and energy will be overwhelmed by defense, and then the Pelicans will have enough opportunities to play again.

The Spurs slammed the Pelican's door with a battering ram at the beginning, coming fiercely and fiercely, as if it were a straight punch, without fancy, without concealment, but in the face of absolute power, the Pelicans players must make the right resistance to this straight punch.

The Spurs are fierce, and the Pelicans are. Then he played with the bones, although it didn't seem to be anything, but he waited for 20 minutes. After 30 minutes, the Spurs, the most powerful offensive weapon, will slowly shrink and lose its effect, which is a chronic killer.

At this time, Duncan was at his best physique, and he was also at his most angry, and he just wanted to give the Pelicans a dismount at this time. So Duncan played quite actively, and when he arrived at the Pelicans' half, he began to be active back and forth to cover his players, and at this time Henson just wanted to catch Duncan defend. He also looked at the others who passed by on both sides of Duncan, Duncan was still defensive, and if he let the Spurs players cut to the basket empty-handed and scored, he would be a real sinner. It's a lot of points for provoking the fire.

Ginobili quickly slipped to the baseline and covered with Duncan from the baseline. After doing the cover, he ran to the top of the arc, which is more complicated, but it is clear in a pictogram way, Ginobili runs a U-shaped course and covers Duncan at the very bottom.

After Ginobili and Duncan did the cover, they returned to receive Parker's basketball, and at this time, not only did Ginobili get the opportunity, but Duncan also got the position of the three-second zone when he turned over.

If this Duncan had tactical support, he would be full of body now. It's really hard to stop him from getting stuck, and some people say you can go around the front. But think about Henson's front, Duncan and Ginobili as baseline cover, the basket is completely open to Ginobili, with tactical support and preparation, the Pelicans dare not and can't go around.

At this time, Ginobili on the outside takes the ball, and Duncan is in the card position inside, this scene, I believe Chinese fans are familiar with, and the rocket-style strong-side play created by Van Gundy is like this, but the Rockets use Maddie and Yao Ming.

Once this absolute strong side is formed, all the Pelicans' defensive attention is inevitably drawn to this side, at this time Ginobili feeds the ball inside Neil catches the basketball, tentatively leans on Henson, this guy is behind him, Duncan desperately slammed into it.

Henson couldn't take it anymore, and his intestines were almost knocked out by Duncan, and he retreated backwards one after another.

These Pelican defenders, who were all attracted by the strong side of the Spurs, saw that Henson couldn't stand it, and this basket was about to be finished again, Arenas hurriedly pounced, and Millsap was also waiting to go back to save the ball.

Now that Duncan smashed into the Pelicans' door, the Pelicans were running back like crazy, but at this time, Duncan smiled at the rare thief and quietly shoved the basketball outside.

The ball and Arenas made a mistake, and it was in Leonard's hands, and Leonard's first reaction to the Pelicans was, yes, it was empty and then I thought it was Leonard, it didn't matter.

Leonard is an unstable three-point shooter, but whoever doesn't eat dumplings for the New Year, you have to allow Leonard to come back.

This is the Spurs' second ball, the first ball is Duncan's violent dunk, the second is a three-pointer, ATT Arena, this time I was happy, and the cheers were louder, as if they had won this game.

"Leonard hit the first three-pointer, which was a real surprise."

Hubby Brown also looked at the arena in surprise, and couldn't believe that Leonard could also show that he could not go off the line once.

Millsap picked up the basketball, quickly walked to the baseline, passed the basketball to Rose, and said in Rose's ear:

"It's okay, this is just the beginning, they are all starting to be fierce, we beat us."

But it is the Pelicans who win the game generally after the attack, and there are few times when they are leading in the first quarter, the Pelicans are like a machine, they need to adjust slowly, adjust well, and the time has come to decide the second half of the game, and then the Pelicans will make a force and win the game.

Rose's fancy dribbling, moving forward, Dribbling fancy, spinning around Parker's side, advancing to the Spurs' half court without pause, Rose is now playing a decent game, but it is commendable that Rose's mistakes are few in every game, and the ball is rarely broken.

After half the court, Rose handed over the basketball to Li Feng, Li Feng got the basketball, it was still the same old, and he came over to eat Ginobili behind his back, and then he watched Li Feng squeeze his eyebrows and glance at Rose twice, Rose and Li Feng are old teammates, and he understood a trace of him, and quickly walked to Li Feng's side empty-handed, and took the basketball hand by hand.

and took advantage of Li Feng's cover and dribbled directly into it. With such a move by Rose, Ginobili had no choice but to give up Li Feng and follow Rose to defend him.

But at this time, Rose didn't attack well or assist, but obviously teased Ginobili to come. Because of what, he dribbled forward and then backed his back to Ginobili trying to move on the line, and it was a very slow movement.

At this time, Ginobili had to run up with Rose, and at this time, Popovich felt very sorry for his Ginobili, this guy let Li Feng and Rose play in shifts, how much body did it take.

Pelican. You guys just play, and see who blames you when you can't make a move in the end. Popovich's expected inability to make a move did not appear, and once Rose, who hadn't played his drunken fist for a long time, attracted Ginobili, he began to continue to turn around in the open area, and countless dangers attracted Ginobili to follow him.

Williams, who was on the Pelicans' side, couldn't watch it. Come over and think about it and suddenly break Rose's ball. But Rose flashed lightly and didn't give Parker a chance to play chicken stealing at all.

And after dodging Parker, he still wanted the basketball to pass to the hands of Li Feng, who was in the vacant position, Li Feng shot a two-pointer, and the empty mid-range shot simply got into the basket.

Although the Pelicans scored at this time, it was too redundant to play, giving people the feeling that it took a long time to attack, and the fans of the ATT arena began to give it in the arena. Pelican boo.

American Airlines fans are booing the Pelicans, but Popovich is itching at the root of his teeth here. This Van Gundy is really excessive, and it is not enough to use Li Feng to consume Ginobili alone.

At this time, Popovich was thinking about whether he should call a timeout to protect Ginobili, but who should Ginobili defend, and deliberately let Ginobili go there, which is the Pelicans' main attack point, which is really annoying.

The Spurs have troublesome things, and the other party is always pestering their Ginobili as if they can't get rid of their girlfriends, but what the Pelicans have here is not a troublesome thing, but a worrying thing.

Duncan is like a sledgehammer hanging from the Pelican's head at this time, you don't know when he will fall and smash you, and you don't know how others around you will sneak attack you when you defend against this sledgehammer, so Van Gundy is more troublesome than Popovich now, and Popovich can still count on his teammates to help Ginobili, but now Van Gundy can count on Duncan to hurry up and lose his body, then it is easy to say, otherwise it will be a disaster for the Pelicans.

Now the Pelicans' worst fear of disaster has begun to turn the river and sea on the Pelicans' interior again, and I don't know how many sets of interior card tactics Popovich has run in the past two days, and after a while, the Spurs have come out with a completely different set of interior card strategies in the Pelicans' half, and this is still from the high position.

Duncan turned back to the center of the basket, and at this time, Duncan took the position in the center of the basket, and the entire Pelicans' defense was torn into a state of plum piles, one on each of the four corners, and Duncan and Henson singled out in the middle.

At this time, everyone was too far away to go back, so they could only pray for Henson, praying that Henson could withstand Duncan's attack.

But it's useless, I'm very angry, the consequences are really strict, Duncan pouted his ass, and he has enough strength, he is like a primitive beast, while slamming backwards, while roaring loudly, Duncan hit Henson step by step, Duncan himself is very excited Dehua can only cry bitterly.

Duncan advanced directly to the basket, and Henson stretched out his arm in pain because his pale arm was not within Duncan's range at all, and he could only watch Duncan hold two arms thicker than normal thighs, throw them upward, and drill the basketball past Henson's head.

fell directly into the basket, Duncan played Henson easily, played extremely comfortable, Duncan was mad after Henson really couldn't stop it, this was the first quarter, Van Gundy really didn't dare to let Henson go to the foul directly.

There is still so much time to go to the only barrier on the inside line, and the consequences are infinitely terrible.

Duncan's sledgehammer hit, and when he came back, the pelicans continued to play with the bones, and Li Feng came back and continued to eat on his back, although Ginobili was short, the strength of his upper body was not bad, and Li Feng's power back and forth there.

Li Feng's body is originally tall among the guards, and the style of the ball is tough and the action is fierce, and the ball is also full of strength, and Ginobili played with sparks splashing and banging together, the audience was so excited, but Popovich scolded his mother.

Van Gundy, you're so insidious. Li Feng, you are really ruthless enough, why did you beat me like this, Ginobili estimated that his feet were soft in the second half.

Popovich glanced at the watch at this time, and it was only 2 minutes. It wasn't time to call a timeout, but at this time, Li Feng had already begun to move bigger, waving his arms back and forth, and then turned around and made a hook on Ginobili's head.

No matter how fast Ginobili is, no matter how good the bounce is, when he is squeezed, he can't move the next plate. Can you still jump, let Li Feng hit this ball directly.

In this way, Duncan turned the river and the sea on the Pelicans' inside. Straight forward, with horizontal kung fu, it is to rush and fight, and the momentum is unforgiving. The beaten pelicans just want to vomit blood. Henson gradually began to lose his grip on the inside.

But the Pelicans made up their minds, and it didn't fit the Spurs' hard work, that is, they came to the yin, a little bit of playing Ginobili, a little bit of consumption of Ginobili's body, and a consumption of Ginobili's offensive desire. Hope, Ginobili is the main target here, and the Pelicans are here to fight the bones. Popovich who hit hurts.

Both teams hurt, one on the surface. It hurts so much that it hits the second of the first quarter.

The Spurs are going to attack again, but at this time, the Spurs didn't give Duncan a run-out tactic, so Duncan was in a tough position on the Pelicans' interior, and Duncan had a good time playing in the first quarter today.

So it's very exciting, people are hard, and it's not easy to get tired physically, so generally see that the players of the winning team are sweating all over their heads, but they are still so lively, just take Gasol to talk about things, when he was a Grizzly Bear, he looked at Gasol no matter how he looked at it, and when it came to the Lakers, this guy came to the spiritual head, which is the role of people's hearts.

Duncan played well, played refreshingly, so he didn't feel tired, Duncan is a special spirit today, more energetic than Henson behind him, Henson is now bullied by Duncan not only in pain, but also mentally depressed, and grabbed a rebound in half a day.

Now that he saw that Duncan didn't have such cover and wanted to force the slot, Henson moved back and forth, wanting to go around and grab Duncan in front of Duncan to not give Duncan a chance to catch the ball.

Henson longed for Duncan's front grab, and Duncan certainly couldn't let Henson ruin his good things today, so he squeezed and pushed Henson backwards, and Henson and Duncan began to wrestle on the inside.

Just watching the arms of the two people are entwined together, the legs are pinned together, and the center of gravity of the two people's bodies is also moving back and forth, these two are competing for strength, these two people are in the inner line, wrestling, playing power struggle.

The referee's whistle blew suddenly, and then the referee pointed straight at Henson:

"Defensive fouls."

Henson was depressed, how did I defend the foul, I and Duncan are the same, the two of us defended together, I did the same actions as Duncan, why did I foul.

To be honest, Duncan and Henson's battle on the inside has no foul and no foul, both of them have a relatively large scale, which is not a foul at all if it was 10 years ago.

But now, the referees can't see this kind of play, and Stern asks the league to play exquisite basketball, not bloody basketball.

Henson is a rookie relative to Duncan, an absolute rookie, and the two of them are definitely not on the same level in terms of influence or seniority, so when these two people make a move, Henson must be guilty of a foul.

It didn't matter if Henson wasn't happy, Duncan was happy today, he happily made a wait-and-see gesture to Henson, and then continued the game This time Leonard served on the sideline and quickly passed the basketball to Parker.

Today, the first quarter of the Spurs belongs to Duncan, and it is completely Duncan's time, and he drove the entire offense of the Spurs as soon as he stood on the inside, so the basketball was in the hands of Parker, and the Pelicans did not pay attention to it at all.

But Parker, who was holding the basketball, quietly made a look at Leonard, and Leonard gave Parker a cover with understanding, and with this cover, Parker suddenly surprised everyone, and a breakthrough left Rose behind, and made a jumper at the free throw line.

Unexpectedly gave the pelican a knife, and once Parker made the knife at this time, the pelican saw red. (To be continued......)
