Popovich was unhappy with the Spurs' first-quarter performance.

"The defense was terrible."

"Let Zhao fight very easily."

"He's our biggest threat, don't be careless."

After Popovich finished yelling, he also laid out the tactics for the players to defend Zhao Yong in the second quarter.

The Clippers are now playing an offensive tactic around Zhao Yong, with a high concentration of ball possession.

If you want to win the Clippers, it is too crucial to guard against Zhao Yong.

In the TNT studio.

Barkley said: "Actually, except for Zhao Yong, the Clippers are in average form, otherwise they will lead by more points." ”

"yes, they missed some open shots," Smith said. ”

Zhao Yong rested for 2 minutes in the first quarter, and at the beginning of the second quarter, he came on the court.

This game is very important, and Zhao Yong needs to play for a long time.

The Staples Arena fans cheered, and the Spurs didn't look like they were their opponents.

Zhao Yong is a little bit of a take-and-take on the field.

Zhao Yong played with a second lineup, Rivers Jr., Lu Wei, Wesley Johnson, and Harrell.

This is a small man lineup, Zhao Yong plays small forward, he can play on the outside, or he can play inside.

On the Spurs side are Ginobili, Mills, Dejounte Murray, Aldridge, Bertans.

The Clippers' offense.

Rivers Jr. dribbles across half court.

Zhao Yong came out to catch the ball this time, and Rivers Jr. gave the ball over.

Dejounte Murray defends Zhao Yong.

This Murray is 196 tall and weighs 79 kilograms, and is a two-way defender.

He dribbles gorgeously and has excellent scoring ability.

Murray is in great physical condition, with great speed, agility, explosiveness, excellent ball handling, very sharp dribbling, good at attacking the basket, finishing offense on breakaways, good at blocking and pick-and-roll in organization, and very dangerous in an open offensive system.

On the defensive end, Murray has the potential to become a defender of the big lock level in the future, but the shortcoming is the confrontation, Murray's strength is weak, and the finishing efficiency after the confrontation is low.

This season, Murray averaged 8.7 points, 5 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game, with good efficiency, and he was also very tightly wound with Zhao Yong, waving his long arms to cause a lot of interference to Zhao Yong.

Harrell immediately stepped up to block Murray.

After blocking Murray, Aldridge's defensive speed was a little worse, and Zhao Yong did not ink, kicked the ball and retreated to the three-point line, hiding behind Harrell for a three-point shot.

This shot is very crisp and neat.

The basketball creates a rainbow.

"Huh!"

Holes through the net.

27 to 35

Zhao Yong hit a three-pointer at the beginning of the second quarter.

The fans at Staples Arena were also actively shouting.

Zhao Yong high-fived Harrell in celebration.

"Zhao, well done." Harrell was smiling.

Zhao Yong is now the boss of the Clippers, and with his help scoring, Harrell has a sense of accomplishment.

"You can't be one-on-one with me except for the pick-and-roll!" Murray shouted trash talk at Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong didn't even look at him, who are you!

"Defend it, don't let up." Popovich shouted at Aldridge.

Aldridge doesn't have much of a problem on the offensive end, the problem is that he doesn't work hard enough on the defensive end.

This makes Spurs always lack the temperament of a strong team.

Aldridge signaled to his teammates that it was his own problem.

Spurs attack.

Mills dribbles fast forward.

Mills is an Australian guard who is 1.83m tall and weighs 84kg, and he is characterized by his speed and accurate shooting.

He averaged 10 points per game this season and shot 39 percent from three-point range in his career.

Zhao Yong is following Aldridge, and his position is on par with Ade.

Mills arrives in front and calls for Aldridge's cover.

Zhao Yong and Rivers Jr. switched defenses quickly, and he didn't let Mills have the same shooting opportunities as he just did.

Mills tried to dribble and change direction to Zhao Yong, but after a continuous change of direction, Zhao Yong still stuck to Mills, making Mills very uncomfortable.

Although Mills was fast for Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong didn't give him room to break out, so he couldn't get rid of Zhao Yong.

Mills could only give the ball to Ginobili on the right.

Ginobili is now at the end of his career, and there is a good chance that he will retire after this season.

Despite this, he still has a very good performance for the Spurs, and he is relied on to play a lot of key moments.

Ginobili changed direction past Lowe and after breaking through to the inside, Euro dodged Harrell's defensive layup and scored the ball.

29 to 35.

The Spurs have too many players who can attack with the ball, which makes the Clippers' defense difficult to deploy.

The Clippers' offense.

Rivers Jr. gives the ball to Loe.

Lowe changed his direction and passed Ginobili with a single step.

In the middle of the march, there is a throwing board.

"Bang!"

"Huh!"

Lowe scored the ball steadily.

29 to 37.

Lu Wei's timing of this attack is very good.

Ginobili's defense can't keep up, and that's his chance.

Spurs attack.

Mills gives the ball to Ginobili.

Ginobili also tried to do it, but it didn't work out.

Lowe has been holding Ginobili on his head.

But Ginobili found Bertans, who was out of position.

Bertans is a big man, but his main scoring tool is the three-point shot.

Harrell was a little slower to follow.

Bertans catches the ball and shoots, and the three-pointer goes up and down.

"Huh!"

32 to 37.

The Spurs' pressure to chase points is still very tight.

The Clippers' offense.

Rivers Jr. dribbles to the frontcourt.

Zhao Yong came over to have a hand with Rivers Jr.

After receiving the ball, Zhao Yong leaned over to face Murray's defense.

"Zhao, your shot didn't do anything to me."

"I'll tell you what NBA-level defense is."

Dejounte Murray has a lot of trash talk, and he keeps yelling at Zhao Yong.

As a sophomore, Dejounte Murray has an instinctive sense of psychological superiority over rookie Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong ignored Dejounte Murray's trash talk and responded with actions.

There wasn't much hesitation.

"Bang!"

Zhao Yong hit Murray and strongly repelled Murray.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yong turned around and broke out with the ball and rushed to the inside.

Zhao Yong's impact is very strong, and the Spurs' defense does not dare to be careless.

Aldridge and Bertans defended at the same time.

It's just that their defensive speed is still slow.

Zhao Yong stepped to collect the ball and directly broke through the defense.

In the exclamation of the fans at the scene, Zhao Yong jumped high and grabbed the ball with one hand and smashed it into the basket.

"Box!

”

A brutal aesthetic that's as simple as it gets.

Zhao Yong completes the destruction of the basket.

32 to 39.

Murray touched his chest, and after the confrontation with Zhao Yong, he felt a little pain.

He remembered how he felt when he was a child when he was hit by an adult's back.

It's so aggrieved.

After Zhao Yong landed, he turned back to Murray and shouted: "Welcome to continue to defend me, I will trample you to the ground and make you undignified." ”

Hearing this, Dejounte Murray gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

Zhao Yong ignored Dejounte Murray, for him, this guy is hardly a threat.

Zhao Yong has too many offensive methods, and he can be blown up in the purest way.

Spurs attack.

Ginobili dribbles across half court.

Dejounte Murray asks for the ball on the right side.

Ginobili gives the ball over.

Dejounte Murray used a highly exaggerated back dribble past Wesley Johnson.

Wesley Johnson defended well, but Dejounte Murray's shot was really flashy.

Dejounte Murray carries the ball and rushes to the basket.

Zhao Yong assisted in the defense of Dejountai Murray.

If he had passed the ball to Aldridge at this point, the Spurs offense would have been successful, but unfortunately Dejounte Murray didn't pass the ball.

He rushed up, and he challenged Zhao Yong head-on.

Zhao Yong jumped at the same time as Dejounte Murray.

"Bang!"

The torsos of the two engaged in a direct confrontation, Zhao Yong's movements were normal, but Dejounte Murray lost his balance.

Dejounte Murray still has a fluke mentality and wants to dodge Zhao Yong and then make a move.

"Bang!"

Zhao Yong confiscated the ball directly with one hand.

Dejounte Murray's shot didn't even get close to the basket.

Dejounte Murray also fell to the floor.

Zhao Yong landed on both sides of Dejounte Murray's side.

Zhao Yong stepped over and dribbled to the frontcourt.

"Oh oh!

”

"Is this a humiliation to the crotch?"

"Don't count, Zhao Yong didn't step over this guy's head, he can only say that he is unlucky."

In the discussion of the fans, Zhao Yong has rushed to the frontcourt.

Harrell on the other side followed.

Zhao Yong directly sent the ball to a board.

"Bang!"

The basketball bounced off and headed for Harrell as he took off.

Harrell was unceremonious, grabbed the basketball with both hands and smashed it into the basket.

"Box!"

The empty connection of the board is complete!

32 to 41

The Staples Arena fans screamed and cheered again.

As soon as Dejounte Murray stood up, he was scolded by Popovich on the sidelines.

"What are you doing?"

"I don't know what you're going to do."

"You're playing like this on the inside?"

"Fake, who told you to fight like this."

Popovich was a bit in this game.

Dejounte Murray made a brain twitch, and actually challenged Zhao Yong like this.

Isn't this looking for a cover what?

Spurs attack.

Ginobili dribbled to the top of the arc and motioned for everyone to steady their pace.

Ginobili hails Aldridge's pick-and-roll.

Aldridge raised, Ginobili dribbled horizontally, and Zhao Yong quickly followed Lu Wei to change defenses.

Under Zhao Yong's pressure, Ginobili could only pass the ball to Aldridge.

Aldridge holds the ball and tries to step into the walk.

Dribble a step, a crisp mid-range jumper.

Lowe defended hard, but he couldn't prevent Aldridge from taking such a shot.

"Huh!"

34 to 41.

The Clippers attack.

Zhao Yong dribbled to the frontcourt, and it became Ginobili who changed Zhao Yong's defense.

If it was Dejountai Murray, Zhao Yong would not hesitate to bump into it, but in the face of this old demon knife, Zhao Yong really didn't dare to rush over.

If he hits, this old guy will really dare to fall.

It's easy to get fouled offensively.

Zhao Yong gave the ball to Lu Wei on the side, and then motioned for Harrell to come over and make a no-ball cover.

Lowe burst in after Mills' change of pace.

After Luwe burst in, he was assisted by Bertans, and he had no chance.

Lowe gives the ball to Rivers Jr. on the outside.

At this time, Zhao Yong got rid of Ginobili, and the defender was Dejounte Murray again, he stuck Dejounte Murray on the right side of the free throw line, and decisively asked for the ball from Rivers Jr.

Rivers Jr. gives the ball over.

Dejounte Murray pressed on Zhao Yong's whole body, but in terms of his weight, this could not cause too much trouble to Zhao Yong.

As soon as Zhao Yong catches the ball, he explodes and hits it!

"Bang!"

Dejounte Murray continued to be knocked out of the way and stumbled to the ground.

Zhao Yong ignored his downfall, but exploded and accelerated to the basket.

Aldridge raised his hands high under the basket, waiting to meet Zhao Yong's onslaught.

Zhao Yong didn't dunk, but sent a cricket ball after facing Aldridge.

Zhao Yong's finish under the basket was very strong, and the ball also rebounded and fell into the basket.

34 to 43.

Zhang Weiping shouted: "Zhao Yong hit the basket for two consecutive rounds and succeeded, this ball is not without defense, but with the defense to score the ball." ”

Xu Jicheng shouted: "The Spurs' interior defense is too weak for Zhao Yong, Zhao Yong plays very easily on the inside, and even says that it can be a take-and-take." ”

Both commentators were also very excited.

"Aldridge's defense has put enough pressure on this goal, but Zhao Yong just scored the ball."

"Zhao Yong looks like he's going to hammer the Spurs' inside."

"Zhao Yong's improvement is obvious, and he is now more able to use his talent."

"It's easy to play on the inside, it's easy."

"Zhao Yong's current strength is super giant."

"After coming to the Clippers, Zhao Yong's talent was completely released, and he made significant progress on both offensive and defensive ends."

Netizens are also excitedly tapping on the keyboard.

In the past, they were all cheering for supergiants such as Kobe, Maddy, Curry, Durant, etc., but now, they are all screaming for Zhao Yong.

Judging from the current performance, Zhao Yong's two waves of offense are supergiant-level offense and defense.

On the court, Zhao Yong has a great influence on the Clippers.

Ginobili and Aldridge pull Dejounte Murray up.

"Paul, Rudy, you two get ready." Popovich couldn't stand the unscrupulous impact of Zhao Yong on the inside anymore.

Hearing Popovich's shout, Pau Gasol and Rudy Gayin also stood up from the bench.

Soon they got their chance to play, and Ginobili up front caused a defensive foul on Rivers Jr.

Dead ball.

Dejounte Murray and Bertans were replaced, and Pau Gasol and Rudy Gayin were replaced.

The Spurs' substitution is obviously to strengthen the height and confrontation, mainly to prevent Zhao Yong's inside impact.

Although such a height may not be able to prevent Zhao Yong's inside play, at least it will not let Zhao Yong be ravaged wantonly.

The Clippers also made substitution adjustments, with Wesley Johnson going down with Rivers Jr. and replacing Harris with Beverley.

Spurs continue to attack.

Ginobili holds the ball and Aldridge's block again.

Once again, Aldridge received Ginobili at the free-throw line.

This time Zhao Yong did not change his defense, and Aldridge shot under the pressure of Zhao Yong.

"Box!"

Couldn't make it, but under the basket, Gasol carried Harrell away and tapped the ball in with one hand.

36 to 43.

Now it's Rivers' turn to scold his mother: "Card man, card man!" ”

The Clippers' offense.

Beverley holds the ball and pushes forward.

With Zhao Yong around, the Clippers players feel like they have a backbone on the court.

Beverley gives the ball to Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong holds the ball, and the defensive attention of the Spurs players is here with Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong saw an opportunity for Harrell inside.

Zhao Yong smashed the ball directly to Harrell, who adjusted his pace and scored the ball against Pau Gasol under the basket.

Harrell scored the goal and yelled at Pau Gasol.

This kind of roar is either a provocation, or a vent for the unhappiness he just had.

36 to 45.

Spurs attack.

Ginobili takes the ball to the front court for Gayin.

Zhao Yong continued to keep an eye on Aldridge, his defense wrapping up all the time.

After a change of direction, Gayin broke through and gave the ball to Aldridge.

Aldridge didn't hold the ball, and Zhao Yong went straight to everything.

"Smack!"

Zhao Yong slapped the ball off.

Aldridge's movement frequency is still a bit slow in Zhao Yong's opinion.

The ball that Zhao Yong slapped was controlled by Lu Wei.

Lowe dribbles past half court.

If it had been before, Lu Wei would have chosen to attack on his own.

But when Zhao Yong is on the field, Lu Wei will come to Zhao Yong for the first time.

At 45 degrees on the right side, Zhao Yong received a pass from Lu Wei.

Zhao Yong faced Gai Yin.

Gai Yin's defense of Zhao Yong is also considered a normal alignment.

Zhao Yong's continuous shaking did not shake off Gai Yin, and Zhao Yong gave the ball to Harris in the low post.

Harris holds the ball in the low post.

Zhao Yong pretended to cut inward, and then quickly ran back.

Harris passes the ball out to Zhao Yong again.

Gai Yin was pulled away by Zhao Yong at this time.

Zhao Yong took the ball, relaxed, and Gai Yin rushed over from a distance.

Zhao Yong's first move was a feint, and Gai Yin was shaken away.

Zhao Yong dribbled sideways and took a three-point jumper.

Shake people, dribble sideways, and jump shots in one go.

Basketball makes a beautiful arc.

"Huh!"

One arrow through the heart.

36 to 48.

The difference between the two teams stretched to double digits.

After Zhao Yong watched the three-point shot, he made an archery celebration.

"Pause!

”

Popovich reluctantly called out the game.

Gai Yin's defense also failed to contain Zhao Yong.

"Zhao Yong singled Gai Yin, oops, the chance is not good, Zhao Yong gave the ball to Harris, good, a wonderful run, Zhao Yong has a chance, Harris gives the ball, give, Zhao Yong catches the ball and shakes it, clicks it open, three-point shot, beautiful!

Pretty!

”

Zhang Weiping roared passionately in the CCTV studio.

Zhao Yong's offensive made Director Zhang can't help it.

"Zhao Yong is awesome."

"Haha, a combination of tactics and personal skills."

"The Spurs' defense is very weak against Zhao Yong."

"The advantage of the Clippers is obvious."

"Zhao Yong has an absolute aura suppression of the Spurs on the field."

....

....

The fans were thrilled.

Pause back.

It was Ginobili who helped the Spurs control the situation.

Ginobili took advantage of Aldridge's pick-and-roll to break through and confront Harrell, causing his blocking foul.

Ginobili steps to the free throw line.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Hit both free throws steadily.

38 to 48.

The Clippers attack.

Beverley brings the ball to the frontcourt.

Zhao Yong ran over from the right side to catch the ball.

Gai Yin focused on Zhao Yong and did not let Zhao Yong shoot.

Aldridge and Pau Gasol assisted Zhao Yong at the same time.

The two of them also raised their hands to lock Zhao Yong's pass in the direction of Harrell.

Harris' jumper at the free-throw line.

This jumper was too easy.

"Huh!"

Spurs attack.

Ginobili dribbs to the front court and gives it to Mills.

Mills pulled up directly with the help of Pau Gasol's cover.

"Huh!"

41 to 50.

Mills was extremely fast and then had a good consistency.

....

....

The game between the two teams continues to see-saw, and it is all around a 10-point difference.

After playing for a while, as the fitness of the players on both teams went by, the shooting percentages of both teams also dropped a bit.

They're all trying to defend.

After Zhao Yong's outburst, it was Lu Wei who regained the Clippers' firepower.

And the Spurs are Mills' stage outbursts.

By the final 1:33 of the first half, the score was 52-62.

Spurs' offense.

Ginobili dribbles forward.

Beverly's harassment.

Beverley's defense is mainly about his attitude and that very unethical mouth.

Ginobili faced Beverley with a step-back three-pointer.

"Box!"

Not in.

Aldridge grabbed the offensive rebound under the basket.

Aldridge tried to fly to the basket, but a dark shadow appeared.

"Bang!

”

Zhao Yong rushed straight up and pinned Aldridge's layup to the rebound.

Jordan Jr. under the basket took the rebound.

"It's beautiful." Little Jordan said to Zhao Yong, and then gave him the ball,

Zhao Yong dribbles to the frontcourt.

The Spurs' defensive intensity is also improving, and Zhao Yong has been invisible on the offensive end for some time.

In this round, Zhao Yong chose to break through by himself.

Zhao Yong changed direction and then broke through the right side of Yin.

Zhao Yong still underestimated the encirclement and suppression of him by the Spurs team.

Gayin, Aldridge and Gasol were flanked.

Zhao Yong hurriedly jumped up and gave the ball to Lu Wei in the bottom corner.

After receiving the ball, Lu Wei also sighed in the face of such a big vacancy.

In the past, he used to shoot against the defense, but now he is really not used to not defending.

Lowe didn't ink too much, and after the adjustment, he made a three-point shot.

"Huh!"

52 to 65

Crisp and neat hits.

Zhang Weiping shouted: "Lu Wei's three-point shot, this is Zhao Yong's assist again, and Zhao Yong's half-court assists are more than double." ”

Xu Jicheng shouted: "Zhao Yong's assist doesn't look difficult, and the data is rising quickly." ”

Zhang Weiping shouted: "The main thing is that Zhao Yong's ability to attract defense is too strong, and then his height also has an advantage in visual field observation." ”

on the field.

Spurs' offense.

The Clippers pulled the score away again, and the shot was also crucial.

Ginobili still chose to play with Aldridge.

After the pick-and-roll, Aldridge bounced back.

Zhao Yong followed Ginobili and pressed Ginobili's layup space.

Ginobili couldn't get to the basket, and he threw the ball out for Aldridge.

Aldridge's three-point shot at the top of the arc.

"Huh!"

55 to 65.

Respond to the ball.

Aldridge rarely shoots three-pointers, but he has the ability.

There were only 20 seconds left before the first half.

The Clippers attacked, and the ball was given to Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong dribbled the ball to the top of the arc to control time.

Minutes and seconds ticked by.

”

In the last two seconds, the Spurs missed a long three-pointer.....

Half-time.
