The opening game was 7-0, and the eighth in the West pressed the first in the West to beat it violently.

The loss is that the basketball game can be suspended at any time, otherwise God knows what the first place in the West will be beaten into, and it is not surprising that the first place in the West will lead by double digits at the beginning.

However, Shay's exaggerated movements and expressions when he deliberately taunted Popovich were still like knives, stabbing wildly in the hearts of Spurs fans.

Who understands the family? The big speechless incident, the eighth Puxin man in the west actually dared to mock my little fairy who was the first in the west, and the whole thing was a bottom!

Shay's move to play the No. 4 position is indeed very subtle, and it brings Shay's defensive ability to 100%.

At this time, I don't know how many coaches are scolding the street.

Carlisle, in fact, is not very good at coaching.

Because Shay that guy. He always has the ability to pull off any of Carlisle's tactical set-ups!

Let him defend the No. 4 position, he will be able to defend the No. 4 position, and it is estimated that Carlisle is to ask Shay to find a way to shut up the opposing coach, and Shay can complete the task.

I want to have players who can execute 100 per cent of the tactics and I can lead the team to win the championship!

However, this is also the ultimate manifestation of Shay's personal ability.

It doesn't matter where you put me, it doesn't matter what you tell me to do.

Anyway, I'm sure I'll be able to lead the team on the right track!

As Bird said after his previous defeat to Shay: "His influence is everywhere on the court!" ”

However, the Spurs are the first team in the West after all, after all, they are the only team to win 40 this season.

They don't get killed so easily.

As soon as the pause came back, the No. 21 finally stabilized the morale of the army with a beautiful attack.

This time, instead of the junior general, the Spurs didn't have to drop the ball directly to the inside, but let the admiral receive the ball in the high post.

Then, the Admiral will pass inside to Duncan to attack.

As a result, it was difficult for Shay to rush back to Duncan in the first place, giving Duncan a fleeting singles opportunity.

For Duncan, this slight single opportunity was enough for him to finish the offense.

Even if it's Mutombo who defends him!

The moment the Admiral passed the ball to Duncan, Duncan quickly turned his back and easily brushed the barrel. Mutombo was completely nervous, he didn't expect Duncan to be so fast!

Duncan at this time is not the slow old man in the future, and his speed can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow for most interior lines.

After a swift turn past Mutombo, Duncan violently attacked the frame with both hands before Shay and Barrel could catch up!

Mutombo was helpless, Duncan's turn was too fast. Of course, Duncan's ability to score goals with such ease is not just about being physical.

Big Ben's physical fitness is also good, but just now you want to tell him to turn around, believe it or not, he can perform a "basketball disappears" magic trick for you?

Duncan is not only fast, but also very solid in basic skills, from starting to turning around, the whole action is done in one go, and the steps are also explained cleanly, and he will not walk at every turn.

No, soon, Duncan showed his solid fundamentals to the fullest.

The next round, it became the admiral who received the ball in the low post and Duncan in the high post.

In this way, Shay did not dare to leave the admiral wantonly.

No matter how much the admiral is past his peak, he can't just put him under the basket and dunk him, right?

The Admiral received the ball in the low post and passed it to Duncan on the other side of the high post. The high and low coordination of the twin towers really makes Shay a little tricky.

Duncan received the ball and hit Mutombo with his back, and then followed by a back-turn jumper!

Mutombo raised his arm high to interfere, but the basketball still grazed the rebound and refracted it into the net with precision! A Duncan's trademark mid-range shooting on the wing, Dumb has scored 4 points in a row after returning from a timeout!

This goal is the same as the turn just now, and Duncan is explaining to the world why his nickname is "Big Fundamentals".

Of course, no matter how strong Duncan is, he can't score like this in every round.

But it is undeniable that his presence did allow the Spurs to bite the game again.

The two sides played the same intractable game as the first game, but the difference is that it was the Lakers who were in the lead today.

Shay's defense at the No. 4 position makes the Spurs twin towers unable to do what they want.

But Duncan has been scoring all the time with the occasional fleeting singles opportunity.

Duncan's characteristic is this, he doesn't shoot much, but he is extremely efficient!

Carlisle would have liked to see if Duncan would have the stamina to maintain such a high offensive efficiency until the fourth quarter.

I didn't know if I didn't try, but after trying, I found out that Duncan, an honest man on the surface, is actually a long-lasting macho!

Until the ninth minute of the fourth quarter, Duncan was still flying away.

At that time, Duncan Mutombo's defense turned and made another jumper.

But Uncle Mu did not lose his position at all, although he did not complete the block, he still covered Duncan to death, which seriously interfered with his shot.

As a result, Duncan's shot was off target and hit the basket on the neck, and Mutombo completed a beautiful defense.

As a result, in the next second, Dumb took a big step past Mutombo, then jumped up to receive the basketball, and directly made up the score, and came to a self-throwing and self-grabbing self-deduction!

Sure enough, a man who can solve personal problems with his own hands is a truly mature man!

In the fourth quarter, he can still run and jump like this, which is enough to show that there are no problems with the nerd's physical fitness.

Originally, the nerd's physical fitness was not bad, and his playing time was strictly controlled in the future, more to protect his health, not that his physical fitness was bad

What's more, this is only the first round, so there is no problem with the nerd's physical reserves.

However, after Duncan scored this goal, the Spurs are still seven points behind.

Today as a whole, Shay and Mutombo still limited the play of the twin towers.

On the Spurs' side, there is no one to restrain Shay.

Shay has now scored 30 points, nine more than Duncan.

But Carlisle called a timeout in a dominant situation, and he was not satisfied with just holding the Spurs at bay.

He's going to crush the spurs completely!

Today, because the Lakers are aggressive on the perimeter, and Shay has been moving his hands and feet against the generals.

So, the Spurs' outside shooting today, especially the three-point shooting, is very mediocre.

If it weren't for the nerds struggling to support, it is estimated that the score difference would have been widened long ago.

So, Carlisle decided that all the players who defended the opponent without the ball in the future would shrink to defend with the edge of the penalty area and interfere with Duncan!

Wipe out Duncan's fleeting opportunity!

Of course, Duncan is a very smart player and very adaptable. With such defense, he will definitely be able to find outside teammates.

But today's Spurs' outside shooting percentage is not very average, as long as Duncan is strangled, the Spurs' offensive efficiency cannot be compared with the Lakers.

Next, Carlisle is going to kill them all!

After a timeout, Shay first easily broke through Pippen's defense with a drifting shot and scored his 32nd point.

The point difference came to 9 points, and the Spurs just took a breath when they fell into the embarrassment that the point difference was about to be stretched to double digits.

Popovich was very annoyed, although the final victory of this game has not yet been decided, but it is shameful enough that the first place in the West is pressed like this!

Shay also retreated while shouting at the top of his voice: "The first in the west in the first round of tours, the first in the west in the first round of tours!" ”

But fortunately, Spurs fans still have the last ray of hope in despair - they still have Tim. Duncan!

As everyone knows, a big net has been rolled towards Duncan.

The little general still followed the step-by-step process, and first gave the ball to the admiral in the high position.

The Admiral was just about to make the ball to Duncan when he found that the Lakers' defense was fully contracted!

Five people, all standing near the sideline of the three-second zone!

The Admiral knew that in this case, once he passed the ball to Duncan, Duncan would be caught in an instant.

Seeing this, the admiral threw the ball directly to Pippen in the bottom corner.

It has to be said that both Admiral and Duncan are representatives of the inside line of golf quotients, and they always make the right decisions.

But sometimes on the basketball court, the right decision isn't necessarily the one that gets the team to score.

Sure enough, as soon as Pippen received the ball, Finley immediately saved, and the Lakers' defensive mobility on the outside was too strong! While the whole team shrinks, it can also keep the opportunity not to give the Spurs a pure open shot!

Pippen didn't dare to mess around and passed the ball to Duncan in the low post.

But just like just now, Pippen's pass was only halfway through when it was intercepted by Shay, who suddenly burst out!

The contraction of the five people made the admiral dare not easily pass inside, and the outside pass inside would be intercepted by Shay, a steal maniac, at any time.

The Lakers' defense is equivalent to making Duncan no longer even have a reliable way to catch the ball!

If you can't catch the ball, what's the use of Duncan's finishing ability?

Shay picked up his fourth steal of the game, and when his feet landed, he made a direct back pass to the basket to send the ball to the front court quickly and accurately.

After receiving the basketball, Billups took the initiative to give the junior general on his side a confrontation to push it away, and then used a layup to score a successful goal.

The difference is 11 points!

When Duncan can't solve the problem either, the Spurs will start to go to the abyss step by step!

In the next round, in order to solve the problem of not getting the ball in the low post, Duncan had to run directly to the high post to receive the ball, and the admiral sank to the low post to contain Shay.

In the high position today, Duncan also scored a lot of points.

As a result, Duncan had just received the basketball, and before he could make any moves, Billups and Stephen. Jackson immediately flanked up!

They were always on the edge of the box, and as soon as Duncan received the ball, they could immediately close the circle!

But Duncan did not hesitate at all, he didn't even look at the basket in the face of the bag, and passed straight to the empty little general, never wasting a little time.

In fact, before Duncan received the ball, he already had a plan in mind for all the follow-up actions, and there was only one principle: never die the ball! We must not let the team's offensive operation come to a standstill!

This is probably the biggest difference between the top interior line like a nerd and 226, 226's ability to handle the ball in the face of the bag is far inferior to these top interior lines.

Don't look at 226, there is also a behind-the-head pass assist, but it is just a flash in the pan.

Therefore, 226 can only exist as an "endpoint" all year round, and cannot really assume the role of a tactical core.

Thankfully, the 226 in this history has also developed excellent ball handling skills at Georgetown University.

Billups did his best to make a save, but it only slightly interfered with the general's shot, and Duncan's ability to move the ball quickly allowed his teammates to get a shot.

Can.

The little general's three-point shot popped out of the frame!

More than three quarters of hand-to-hand combat have already swallowed the Spurs' outside touch. Now, even with a slight distraction, it will be difficult for the young general to score again.

Moreover, the Spurs have averaged only 3.7 three-pointers per game this season.

Even in this era of dislike of three-point shooting, the Spurs only rank sixth from the bottom in the league in three-point shooting per game.

Do you expect them to kill the game with three points? At least not today!

Carlisle was right!

He'd rather let other guys shoot from distance than force Duncan to pass.

As it turned out, he made the right choice!

The basketball basket came out, Mutombo flew to protect the rebound, and then waved his blood-stained furious elbows, clearing the surroundings and holding the ball steadily!

The Spurs' attempt to narrow the margin to single digits was completely unsuccessful!

Duncan can't receive the ball in the low post now, and the moment he catches the ball in the high post, he is helpless.

And the whole world knows that Shay, a ruthless guy, will never let go of any opportunity to fall into the ground!

The twin towers immediately retreated and filled the restricted area.

This time on defense, the general simply didn't care much about Stephen, who had been running around. Jackson is up.

He must not let Shay score easily, and he must not let Shay open the score!

Seeing this, Shay called a pick-and-roll and asked Mutombo to come out to cover for him.

At this point, Duncan had to follow out of the penalty area.

Although the team defense was allowed this season, Duncan didn't have to follow his opponent all the time.

But Shay's mid-range threat is too great, and if Duncan doesn't keep up, Shay will be a big open mid-range shot after blocking and dismantling.

So, Duncan had to go out with him, ready to help with Shay.

And Duncan went out with him. It is equivalent to the only admiral squatting in the guard frame again!

As long as Duncan and the Admiral weren't in the three-second zone at the same time, Shay would have the confidence to attack the basket.

And he did, and after taking cover, Shay shook off Pippen, and in the face of Duncan's change of defense, Shay deliberately paused and looked at the basket, as if he was about to make a stop-up jumper.

Although Duncan was not directly shaken away, he also hesitated, not knowing whether to step up to interfere with the shot, or keep his distance to prevent breakthroughs.

Just as Duncan hesitated, Shay suddenly accelerated again and swept past him!

This is the first head-to-head duel between this new generation of supernova and Shay, an older generation supernova, and judging from the result, Shay has won completely!

Shay burst into the box from the flank, Pippen and Duncan chased after him, and the Admiral adjusted Shay's angle to block Shay.

In the end, Shay resolutely chose to jump up and go to the basket under the siege of the three.

Facing the impermeable arms of the basket, Shay curled up in the air, pulled the ball into his arms, and then after avoiding the block, he reached out to the other side of the basket, and his wrists and fingers were nimble and forced, and he continued to score under the multi-person encirclement of the Spurs!

Shay, personal 34th point! Led the Lakers to a 13-point lead!

His firepower today is simply unmatched!

Popovich didn't know what to do anymore, Shay was in such good shape today, but the Spurs' offense had a problem. If it goes on like this, the first place in the west may be thrown into garbage time!

As a matter of fact. That's what Shay thought!

He wants to completely tear off the so-called dignity of the first in the west! Give them a bloody fiasco!

So after scoring this time, Shay finally said the first trash word of the day to Duncan:

"Hey Stone Buddha, I can score goals on your head as much as I want. But it's nothing, don't you believe it, we can still make you not get a point in the next step~"

Shay is not bragging about Liu Bee, he knows very well that as long as this strategy continues to be implemented, Duncan may really not get any points next!

Because of the 05 Finals, the Pistons relied on the whole team to shrink the edge of the restricted area, and Duncan grabbed at least three people as soon as he got the ball, limiting Duncan to only 20.6 points with an ultra-low shooting rate of 41.9% in the entire series! It's kind of restricting Duncan to death!

And the reason why the Spurs were able to win the Finals in the end was that the three-pointers of Ginobili, Horry and Bowen exploded, and the Spurs made 51 three-pointers in the whole series, while the Pistons only had 18.

This formidable three-point firepower took a toll on the Pistons' wrap-and-clamp tactics.

But today's Spurs don't have such strong three-point ability! Therefore, Shay is guaranteed to make Duncan cornered!

Duncan didn't react to Shay's trash talk. But Shay knew that the huge pressure and his own provocation must have made Duncan's pressure soar.

The most consistent player of all time? First in the West in the regular season?

Today, I have to teach you a good lesson!

Today's 10,000-word update is present! It's another day of 10,000 word updates, and the conscience of the old man kneels down and begs for a monthly pass, thank you!
