This game between the Lakers and the Spurs at home is too high.
Duncan's opening triple hit against the Lakers was definitely like a toe to most of the audience who were watching the game.
Most of the viewers who followed this game were actually expecting the Lakers to achieve the historic achievement of 73 wins.
Regardless of how miserable the Lakers will be in the playoffs, the 73-win record in the regular season will indeed make these spectators in the United States who like to watch the excitement feel like they have witnessed history.
But the Spurs came up and directly stepped the Lakers into the quagmire, and by the way, Popovich also stepped on it very disgustingly.
Popovich yelled at the Spurs players on the court, this team is too vegetable, it is definitely murderous.
Therefore, after Popovich's murder, everyone is watching to see if the Lakers' head coach, Coach D, will say something.
The Lakers' starting lineup for this game is a regular five-man lineup, with Ibanks, Antetokounmpo, Pierce, McCarvey, and Seth Curry.
The starting lineup of the Spurs for this game is Duncan, Leonard, Stephenson, Danny Green, and Dellavedova.
This starting lineup for the Spurs is exactly the same as the one from the last meeting between the two teams.
The last time the two teams met, Dellavedova was the key to victory, making 2-of-20 three-pointers defended by Seth Curry, and since that game, Seth Curry has been struggling, and the entire NBA seems to have seen the right way to defend Seth Curry.
Don't be afraid of fouls, crazy physical confrontation, Seth Curry's confrontation ability is not strong, and his body is not strong enough, after the confrontation, Seth Curry's offensive state will be greatly affected.
Since that game, Seth Curry has fallen from the sky to the ground.
It stands to reason that the last time the two teams met, Seth Curry had already shown such a bad level, and this game should not continue to let Seth Curry start.
Kanan, who has performed very well recently, seems to be an option, although Kanan's offensive threat ability is not so strong, but his confrontation ability is okay, at least he will not go undercover and embarrass people at every turn.
So, at this time, many people think like this.
Even Budenholzer, the assistant coach of the Spurs, wondered if Coach D was dazed.
"Mike, you also think Coach D shouldn't be on Seth Curry?"
Popovich asked as he smiled at Budenholzer after returning from the sideline with a smug face.
"Isn't it?"
"Coach D has no choice, this season, Coach D has not established any other system in the Lakers except for five small and Farke basketball, he has no choice, Seth Curry is no longer stable, he is also the most dangerous player of the Lakers, with Seth Curry on the court, Ibanks, Antetokounmpo, McCarvey, they have enough offensive threat.
These people have enough offensive threat to lay a certain foundation for Wade, otherwise, no matter how strong Wade is, he will not be able to score 50 points per game.
Don't look at the Lakers now that they don't get a single point, soon, the Lakers will score, and soon, the Lakers will catch up with some points, of course, there is still no way to turn the score back. ā
āā¦ā¦ā
After Popovich finished speaking, Budenholzer was directly speechless.
It was speechlessness in shock.
Is the NBA's celebrity circle so involuted now?
Now that they have opened their 'eyes for the future', do you need to accurately predict the trend of the game?
Budenholzer suddenly realized that his day of leaving school might be postponed again.
And almost at the same time, on the court, the Lakers, who had not scored since the start of the game, scored.
In order to defend Seth Curry, the Spurs let Dellavedo follow the whole court, and the whole court was pasted, and the Spurs' defensive space opened up greatly.
The average team simply can't support this kind of defense.
But the Spurs can.
The remaining four of the Spurs are Duncan, Leonard, Finson and Danny Green.
After Finson had a bad time with the Bobcats, and the Spurs traded him for Parker, Finson's performance with the Spurs was simply like a fish in water.
Finson is a very team player, he likes to manage the team militarly, he needs his teammates to have enough tactical literacy to match his performance, but in Bobcats, his teammates are too loose, the team is too loose, and it is not the environment in which he survives.
Well, now at Spurs, that's the environment he wants.
So after coming to the Spurs, Finson immediately showed the temperament and attitude of tough James when he was on the Pacers, and the cooperation between Leonard, Danny Green, and Duncan, quite tacit.
The forward lines of Duncan, Finson, Leonard and Danny Green, defensively, have become an insurmountable line of defense for opponents.
These four, on the pitch, and sometimes, can even defend against the other five!
So, seeing Seth Curry deliberately open up space on the court to move Dellavedova away, Finson laughed.
Four-on-four is indeed more beneficial on the offensive end.
On the court, the smaller the number of attackers and defenders, the more beneficial it is to the offense.
Therefore, in the American heads-up, in order to limit the offense, there is a rule of three dribbles, if you use the rules of the official game, one hit one, two people with close strength, there is no way to defend at all.
Seth Curry was a clever and team player, and he was upset by Dellavedova and contributed to his teammates.
This is an idea.
But you don't look at who the four people you're going to fight are!
Seeing the Lakers' McCarvey, Pierce, Antetokounmpo and Ibanks trying to beat the Spurs' four strongest defensive forwards, not only Finson laughed, but even James in front of the TV.
What is Despair?
This is despair!
"It's a pity, the Lakers are about to be blackened by the Spurs in the first round of the playoffs, and the overall runner-up with 72 wins, how good!"
It's exciting to think about James, but unfortunately, in the end, the Lakers' such a great regular season record was harvested by the Spurs.
The Lakers didn't score in the first three offenses, this is the fourth offense, and Seth Curry's main offense is seen so deadly, the Lakers players on the court are a little hesitant on offense.
Seeing the Lakers' offense hesitate, the Lakers assistant coaches such as Nash and Aunt Jenny on the sidelines sighed directly.
The pressure on the Lakers players in this game is indeed high.
At the same time, the Spurs' defense is indeed strong.
The Lakers' offense is very difficult to beat!
Pierce, Barkley and Garnett had little to contribute.
Ibanks and Antetokounmbo McCarvey have been inconsistent in attack.
Seth Curry is now stuck in the superstar wall.
The Lakers' Wade has only one.
"Coach, now go to Dwynne!"
After Nash finished speaking, Du Kang shook his head directly.
"There's no need."
After Du Kang finished speaking, he walked to the sidelines.
"Mike, block Stephenson!"
Du Kang's shouting to McCarvey did not shy away from anyone at all.
Everyone heard it, including Finson on the pitch.
it!
Fenson, who heard Du Kang's shout, thought he had misheard.
Think of yourself as Seth Curry or Stephen Curry?
He has been in the NBA for so many years, and no one has ever dared to block and dismantle him!
Even if it's blocking and beating Leonard, Danny Green, and Duncan, you shouldn't hit yourself!
Finson is so confident, he is the man who has blown the wind in James's ears!
It's just McCarvey!
As a former Pacers player, Finson has the highest regard for Coach D.
But, Coach D, you underestimate me too much!
"Boy, you don't need to block it, I'll come over by myself, you beat me!"
In the face of Coach D's shouting, Finson showed considerable courage and confidence.
This kind of confidence is also extremely contagious, and the Lakers fans at the scene were exclaiming for a while.
Finson is definitely one of those rare performative personalities in the NBA.
Strength is one thing, self-confidence is one thing, like to express yourself, like to beep is also one thing.
This beep is very well loaded.
If the defense can stop McCarvey this time, then Finson will definitely be able to cause a large number of fans and spectators in the NBA to scream.
It's just that when Finson ran up to McCarvey, Finson didn't notice Duncan frowning on the court.
Finson was still rejoicing in his own successful beep.
Duncan, on the other hand, had already felt the danger coming.
Finson, because he has been in the East, doesn't have many opportunities to play against players like the Lakers.
But as the Spurs' leading player, Duncan is all too familiar with these players of the Lakers.
Finson underestimated McCarvey's breakthrough ability!
The defense line is chaotic for a moment, as long as McCarvey breaks through, the defense will be scrapped, the defense line of four people is not friendly to the defense, Finson does this, this is the end!
Sure enough, Finson, who was complacent with Zhan Zhan, thought that McCarvey would pull up a fight and fight him like James, and his James's breakthrough could be prevented, not to mention McCarvey's breakthrough.
However, McCarvey didn't fight with Finson at all.
Finson came over, just finished loading the beep, McCarvey directly burned his knees and killed it close to the ground!
It's a very nice touch-to-ground break!
Wade, Parker, call the insiders!
This kind of breakthrough is extremely demanding on the defensive actions of the defenders, and if there is no adequate preparation, even the defensive actions cannot be done.
Just like Finson now, he was directly dumbfounded.
After McCarvey broke through Finson, he didn't hesitate and went straight to Duncan.
It stands to reason that at this time, the Spurs will have a defensive force, cooperate with the pursuing defenders, and directly flank the attack, and McCarvey has no chance to challenge Duncan at all.
But now, because Finson took the initiative to stand up and beep without regard for the team's overall defense, the Spurs opened the door.
Exposed Duncan directly to McCarvey.
Seeing McCarvey flying over, what could Duncan do?
This kid is a famous fierce man in the NBA!
This is the fierce man who dared to directly harden James in the first game of the rookie and did a quadruple double on James's head!
This kid, in the NBA, is known for his fierce style of play, and his style of play is extremely knee-intensive!
This time is no exception!
Duncan felt that there was no problem with his defensive prediction, and McCarvey, who was flying in the air, almost didn't have any offensive space, and it was an offensive foul when he collided!
But!
McCarvey in the air, twisting his body, smashed the basketball in his hand!
Oh my God!
Seeing such an offensive option as McCarvey, even Duncan was stupid!
You twist so much, do you really not want your body?
Knowing that you are so twisted, how will you land?
How could McCarvey not know!
However, such a great opportunity, he could not have missed it!
After smashing the basketball in his hand, McCarvey in the air, after dodging Duncan, flew out on his stomach!
Brush it up!
Then, there was another bang!
McCarvey scored two points!
2 to 6!
The Lakers finally scored!
At the same time, McCarvey hit the ground on his knee and fell heavily to the floor!
Seeing this scene, the Lakers fans at the scene even fell silent for a moment.
Seeing this scene, Fenson, who followed from behind, was directly dumbfounded.
This style of play is too brave, right?!
Just under the shocked gaze of Finson and the Lakers fans at the scene, McCarvey, who had fallen very the ground, propped up his body and stood up directly, not even asking his teammates to pull.
And then......
Knock knock!
McCarvey stomped the floor with both feet, grimacing, and turned to defend himself.
āā¦ā¦ā
That's what Finson's expression looked like.
And the whole scene, after a moment of silence, went crazy!
So far in the game, the Lakers fans on the scene finally got a chance to vent their emotions.
As he staggered past Finson, McCarvey stopped.
"No one can jump out of Coach D's judgment, Jordan can't do it, James can't do it, you, even more not, Coach D says I can beat you, I can definitely beat you!"
With that, McCarvey continued on his way.
Looking at McCarvey's back, Finson's whole body was blindfolded.
Is this the Lakers?
Finson feels like he's got a new perspective on the Lakers.
And at this time, on the sidelines.
"Mike, see it, Coach D, there's no need for a substitution at all."
āā¦ā¦ā
Budenholzer looked at the smile on Popovich's face, and for a moment there was nothing but shock.
Seth Curry really didn't score anymore.
However, his offensive impact was too great.
At the same time, Coach D's micro-manipulation on the sidelines is too accurate!
"Giannis, don't hit Leonard, block and beat Finson!"
"Devon, pull it out, throw it at Finsen's head, he's only 1.96 meters!"
"Mike, continue Tufensen!"
On the court, Finson felt like he was numb!
Not only Finson, but also the Pacers fans in front of the TV were stunned.
Their lovely Finson was actually beaten by Coach D as a defensive weakness!
Astound!
The whole world was shocked!
The whole world was shocked by Coach D!
However, Popovich on the sidelines was laughing.
Because!
"This is the struggle, you can only play Finsen, this is the desperate struggle, I like to watch Coach D struggle like this!"
When you can only play Kobe Bryant and play a player like Jordan when you play defensive weaknesses, this is actually very desperate.
So, Popovich is laughing.
"Coach D, stop struggling, replace your Wade!"
The first quarter played six and a half minutes.
At this time, the score on the court was 20-12, and the Lakers were eight points behind.
Lakers substitutions.
"Wade came up a little early tonight!"
"But it's normal, in this game, the Lakers are more dangerous."
After O'Neill finished speaking, he looked at the players on the field, and the whole person was dumbfounded.
"Garnett !!!"
It's not Wade, it's Garnett!!
O'Neill was dumbfounded!
The Lakers fans at the scene even made a direct noise!
And on the pitch.
Duncan, who was on the court, was also dumbfounded.
āKGļ¼ā
Dumbfounded, Duncan, who came back to his senses, showed an excited look on his face.
It's just that Popovich on the sidelines didn't have a calm expression on his face at this time.
Popovich has been predicting this match all along.
It's been accurate.
And this time......
"Bobo miscalculated!"
But......
At this time, on Garnett, Coach D, are you playing for real, or is it just bad fun?
The current KG is not qualified to play with Tim!
