Chapter 423: The Tower That Never Falls

At the same time, in the Knicks' locker room, these young people did not realize the impending fierce battle, and they were still immersed in the joy of overtaking the Spurs, even Taberdeau was also relishing his way of breaking the Spurs' defense.

For 20 minutes at half-time, the fans ate, drank and shopped, the players got plenty of rest and, of course, a mental refreshment.

After 20 minutes, the two teams returned to the ATT arena and interviewed Tyberdu at the start of the game.

In the second quarter, the Knicks played well, and the reporters also attributed the credit to Tyberdeau.

"Mr. Tom, you played well in the first half, and you think those things gave the Knicks the advantage."

"Oh! We mainly made changes defensively, and the local area increased the force of the pressing, so that the opponent's attack could not be carried out fluently. ”

As Taberdu spoke in front of reporters, the game began. The opening was the Knicks' ball, and at this time the Knicks were still immersed in the joy of the first half.

They pushed in and wanted to play like they did in the first half, but they forgot that they could make changes on the defensive end and that the Spurs could. Now as soon as the Knicks are advancing, the Spurs are also immediately expanding their defense outwards and pushing outward.

The Spurs' overall strength on the defensive end is very strong, and from a high vantage point on the court, you can clearly see the black formation, which suddenly expands outward, and immediately forces the Knicks' lineup to retreat.

The Spurs expanded their defense, which was originally the result that the Knicks wanted to see, but Dragic thought he had an opportunity at this time, and he broke through directly with the ball and wanted to pass Parker.

But Parker's own ability is no worse than him, and now Parker has made up his mind to fight a decisive battle. Once a person has made such a determination, his concentration on the game immediately improves to a new level, and his concentration gives Parker's defensive intensity another bonus.

So Dragic almost made a rash decision, and Parker's hand immediately cut to Dragic's basketball.

"Smack!"

Parker broke Dragic's ball all at once. The opening first shot gave the Knicks a surprise.

After the break, Parker Ma passed the ball to Ginobili, who was already running, Ginobili rushed with the ball, and when he reached the Knicks' three-point line, he unambiguously jumped and faked the real pass, and the basketball was easily over-handed to Split, who followed up.

Split hit Li Feng's body with the ball, although Li Feng opened, he couldn't stop Split's desperate spirit, this old man actually fit and pounced forward, hooked his right hand side, and slammed the basketball towards the rebound.

Split fell to the ground and the basketball was shot!

The Spurs hit this wave of fast attack, and suddenly ATT Arena. and Li Feng, the Knicks players, all have some amazing feelings.

Because in the first half, the Spurs were familiar with the game, but now the Spurs are more strong and desperate to fight in addition to the roundness.

At this time, Tyberdeau, who was still commenting the interview, had to pay more attention to the court.

He also keenly felt that in the first and second halves, the Spurs gave people a different feeling, and in the first half, the Spurs were a sleek image of an old ball. But in the second half, the Spurs gave people the feeling of being a military formation, a cold-blooded machine.

At this time, the reporter was still asking:

"Mr. Taberdu, will you make any adjustments in the second half?"

At this time, while watching the game distractedly, Tyberdu said:

'We're going to step up our defense. Make more changes on the offensive end and hopefully keep the score advantage. ”

Tyberdu finally finished dealing with reporters, and at this time the Spurs also hit the door.

The Spurs' offense in the first half was based on coordination. I didn't do it until I had the chance. But now that he came back in the second half for the first offense, Parker broke that rule. In the opening game, Parker, as a leader of the Spurs, immediately asked for tactics. He held the ball in the low post and forced a confrontation with Dragic.

Dragic is also a first-class point guard with a solid defense, and Parker wants to play him in the low post, which can be imagined.

Dragic was confident in his defense, and he pushed hard at Parker on the outside. Under normal circumstances, Parker should have given up or looked for a more reasonable shot with such a stubborn defense.

But now when the Spurs are playing with hard bones, Parker doesn't care at all, and he collides with Dragic with his body, which is harder, more than tolerance, and stronger than whose heart is stronger.

Dragic's side did not have such a strong psychological preparation as Parker, he was careless, and he was suddenly hit by Parker.

Parker took advantage of this opportunity to step up, raise his hand and turn around to shoot, and shot the basketball into the Knicks' basket.

At this time, the Spurs played really hard, and they were so hard that they could smash the Knicks.

The spurs are all like this, and Tyberdu's eyes immediately burst into flames, these old guys are going to be hard!

He couldn't help but shout a few times on the sidelines, asking the Knicks to strengthen their defensive intensity, and no matter how hard the old guys who came to the Spurs were hard, they couldn't be as tough as a bunch of great guys under him.

At this time, Reggie Miller, as an old player, also immediately noticed the changes in the Spurs, and he said with a sigh on the side:

"The Spurs, these old guys, are actually fighting hard now."

"The Spurs players are very old, but it's probably no problem to fight a game. Now the Knicks are going to have a hard time. ”

Jeff Van Gundy also sighed again and again on the side.

It was real to see off the court, and Li Feng also felt very real on the court, and Split, who was defending by himself at this time, was really desperate.

Fighting is terrifying, and playing is the same, if a person and a team really want to play badly, the opponent will also feel very troublesome.

That's what the Knicks are like now, and when the Knicks push in, they immediately feel that the Spurs' defense is nowhere to go. And spurs are like hedgehogs covered in thorns, and the slightest distraction will stab you.

Li Feng's side was also pushed by Split in the half, and he couldn't score at all, and if he wanted to make a foul, the Spurs were worse than you.

After the worst Knicks, there was no way to hold back, and when the 24 seconds were approaching, Rose threw a three-pointer indiscriminately.

In this way, Rose still shot under huge defensive pressure, and Rose's three-point shot was missed.

The Spurs immediately took the ball in the backcourt and pushed forward steadily, and at this time the Knicks still wanted to wrap Parker. But Parker saw the Spurs coming, and he immediately crossed the basketball to Duncan, who ran outside the three-point line.

Duncan is such a big person, standing outside the three-point line, you Knicks can't go around the front, and you can open up space when you come out.

Cousins was already slow, and now he hesitated slightly, and Tim Duncan was actually very decisive, raising his hand and throwing out a three-pointer.

Parker's resoluteness is reflected in the physical confrontation, and now Tim Duncan's resoluteness is reflected in the high concentration of concentration.

The instant opportunity presented itself, and he immediately shot a three-pointer. The Knicks, who shot the three-pointer, didn't react at all.

Cousins can only reach out to the front with a schematic stretch, but the defense cannot be done with a schematic approach.

Duncan's three-point shot "brushed" fell into the Knicks' basket at once, and the Spurs scored 7 points in a row at the beginning of the third quarter, beating the Knicks 7-0, and the point difference was completely overtaken.

At this time, the cheers of the ATT arena were like a frenzy, wave after wave, impacting the entire stadium. The furious black fans let out a roar of joy.

Tim Duncan also stretched out his hands towards the court. It was like a tower that would not fall, and suddenly the cheers on the court were even more shocking.

In this context, Parker, Ginobili. Leonard, Split took a firm step and walked towards his own half like a battle-hardened veteran.

Spurs' momentum at this moment is like a rainbow!

Roaring courts, gritty veterans. Extremely tough style!

These changes made the atmosphere on the court different from the past, and the Knicks were players who only took a breath in the first half. At this time, it is facing extremely turbulent waves.

Spurs have gained momentum!

At this time, Taberdu had just made a statement to the reporter and immediately called a timeout.

The Knicks called a timeout, and all the players returned to the bench.

Tyberdu immediately came up to emphasize the local defensive strategy he invented in the second quarter.

He thinks the team is behind and still hasn't found the right direction on the defensive end. Tyberdu emphasized defense and adjusted the team's mentality to play today's game against the Spurs.

Back on the court, the Knicks deliberately arranged a tactic, all the players pulled up to the high position, attracting the Spurs' defense to move to the high position, and then suddenly passed the ball to Li Feng.

Let Li Fenglai resist Split in the low position, and Split at this time has been completely dedicated, and he is simply fighting for his life.

Li Feng collided with Split, but he couldn't bump into this person at all. After the last time, Li Feng had no choice, he couldn't go in, so he could only turn around and shoot.

But even so, Split still came up and poked the eye, almost poking Li Feng's eyes.

The Spurs are coming together with open and dark moves, desperate and tough on the surface, and constantly making dark moves in the dark. Being poked by Li Feng like this also lost his accuracy in an instant, and he missed the shot. Turning around, Split immediately picked up the basketball.

Li Feng's character, after suffering such a loss, he immediately turned back and complained to the referee, but the referee ignored him and signaled the game to continue.

This can make Li Feng extremely angry, and the Spurs will advance again, because of the command of Tyberdu.

The Knicks are about to come up and wrap up, but Parker has been prepared for it early, and no matter how good your defensive strategy is, it is full of holes.

Parker Ma passed the ball and pulled out Split, Split received the ball and forced a breakthrough, Li Feng took a step next to him and was thinking of a trick.

saw that Split was breaking through and quickly dividing the ball, and Leonard, who had the ball on the baseline, took advantage of his position to step past Rose and threw a throw.

Spurs add two more points!

Tyberdu's local package is useless at this time, on the one hand, the Spurs are more decisive, and on the other hand, the Spurs have been prepared for Tyberdu's defensive strategy.

The Knicks, who continued to pull away from the score, arrived at the opponent's half, and Li Feng also switched a role.

went up to help the team to cover, Li Feng's quality of covering is still very high, and he suddenly helped Dragic get a chance to shoot from the bottom line.

But at this time, Dragic didn't grasp such a long shot. Dragic misses a shot, and the Spurs rebound.

Once the Knicks missed, the Spurs immediately pushed the offense forward, and the Knicks themselves were a little hesitant to push up and delay Parker. At this point, Parker simply didn't give the Knicks time to react. The ball was immediately passed to Duncan at the free-throw line.

Duncan grabbed the ball with one hand. He made a slight pass to get Cousins' attention, and then he stepped into the Knicks' box. Duncan cut in suddenly, and the Knicks' defense kept in mind the contraction.

But Duncan, who was in the Knicks penalty area, continued to grasp the ball with one hand, raised his hand and shook Li Feng with a feint, and then shook off the chasing Rose before passing the ball unhurriedly to Leonard in the bottom corner.

With no one in front of him on the ball, Leonard was drawn to Duncan with all the defensive attention, and he shot three-pointers as easily as he did in practice.

Leonard didn't make the same mistake that Dragic had just made. He had a much farther range than Dragic, and his three-pointer landed safely into the Knicks' basket.

As a result, the score difference has widened again.

Tyberdu called a timeout, but instead of controlling the situation, the difference continued to widen. The situation made it clear to everyone that Taberdu had lost control of the situation.

The current Knicks lack methods on the offensive end, or the old routine of the past, occasionally sneak attack, and play at halftime. It worked well in the first half, but now it's different for Spurs.

The Spurs played harder on the offensive end. Iron-blooded and orderly. With efficiency and assurance on the offensive end and fewer turnovers, this reduces the Knicks' chances of sneaking up and increases scoring efficiency.

Li Feng has already devoted himself to the game. But Li Feng can assure that this is the toughest race he has ever faced.

The Spurs' defense is very tough, and you feel like you're going back and forth in a forest of steel. That's not all, the Spurs are very cunning while being hard. The passing and movement are dazzling.

The Spurs take into account the hardness and tacit cooperation, and Li Feng is in the whole stadium, feeling like he is in a steel maze.

I couldn't find any exit at all, and I was hit by muscular men everywhere and felt pain all over my body. The rest of the Knicks' players are in the same situation as Li Feng.

The spurs in this state give people the feeling that they are irresistible, and there is no way to crack it. The Spurs deserve to be the champions, and the domineering and iron will shown at this time completely shocked the Knicks.

From the beginning of the third quarter, the Spurs firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, and by the end of the third quarter, the Spurs had led the Knicks by 15 points.

It's a big lead again, and the games between the Spurs and the Knicks are one after another, and you sing and I come on the court, taking turns to dominate.

However, the Spurs' iron-blooded attack was much more ferocious than the two waves of attack in the first half.

The Knicks are about to cross, and there is finally something wrong on the court, and the Spurs are still too old. It's time for the wave. Povic immediately made a big substitution to the bench, which finally gave the Knicks another breather.

When the Spurs' five tigers left the court, the ATT arena hall was filled with roaring cheers.

Today's Spurs have given people a glimpse of what the best Spurs should be, and Detroit fans love this team and this iron-blooded style.

On the other hand, the young players of the Knicks all seem to be sluggish, and they still lack something in front of the Spurs. Until now, the Knicks have not always been a team with a soul, but the Spurs are a team with a soul and a heritage.

Jeff Van Gundy sighed again and again in the commentary seat at this time:

"The Spurs in the third quarter were really exciting! This kind of competition is the real competition. Intensity, skill, coordination, and shared beliefs. That's what basketball is all about! There is no shame in the Knicks if they lose to such Spurs today, after all, they are still young. ”

Li Feng heard Van Gundy's words on the side, and in his heart he scolded the other party with contempt:

"Being young is not a reason to fail, let alone an excuse to fail!"

When the Spurs were replaced on the bench, that tacit understanding disappeared immediately, but the intensity of the game did not.

The Spurs' bench players don't have the basketball wisdom accumulated over the years, but they have the hard work of young people.

The only thing that the bench players on the Knicks' side can do is to work hard, and the young benches of the two teams fought from the end of the third quarter to the beginning of the fourth quarter.

However, in the score, it did not pull in or pull away, and in the third minute of the fourth quarter, the score of the two teams was still 87-72, and the Spurs still led the Knicks by 15 points.

At this time, it was the Knicks who replaced the main force first, and the order of Tyberdu's substitutions did not change, and the first one he replaced was Li Feng.

Li Feng walked onto the court first, and the pressure he faced at this time was also very great, and today's Spurs gave Li Feng a different feeling. Although the previous opponent was strong, none of them had such a strong desire to win. Hope.

This desire to win. hope, even Li Feng felt trembling. Judging from the current performance, the Knicks are completely powerless to resist.

But will you admit defeat so easily? Li Feng didn't want to admit defeat, especially when the Spurs played like this.

The Spurs' iron blood and tenacious will touched Li Feng from the bottom of his heart, but it also aroused the passionate emotions in Li Feng's heart.

The passionate emotions aroused by the Spurs are not only stirring in the hearts of Spurs fans, but also in the hearts of Li Feng. Li Feng felt that in this case, there was only one thing he had to do, and he fought to the death like these old guys.

With such a thought, Li Feng's footsteps on the court suddenly became much stronger. It is completely related to how much a player plays, how well he is mentally stated, and how well he has a game strategy. (To be continued......)
