Chapter 5: 3+1! Duncan was upset!

Popovich: This is really shameless.

His prediction at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends is all right!

If it's another veteran coach, then you definitely can't put it down and watch a few more rounds.

Every round you watch more is a round of chasing points by yourself, because you have completely restrained tactically.

The opponent is Popovich, and there is no chance of stealing points.

Of course, Popovich's use of this timeout did not come without a price.

After calling this timeout, the Spurs also had only one timeout, and without a timeout, he couldn't have been Popovich.

The next timeout is extremely crucial, and Popovich's timeout will definitely be used at the critical moment.

But this timeout is a long timeout, and Popovich will definitely arrange a very solid battle plan.

Some strategies can be anticipated, but they can't be so risky.

"It's enough to take this timeout, and then let's feel the charm of the small-ball era."

Su Chen summoned the players, picked up the tactical board and laid out the tactics.

Thompson and Draymond Green remain at the heart of the game, and the duo had more energy tonight, which was a big advantage.

Curry is not physically strong, and on the other hand, the Spurs, who are fighting hard to defend, are even less physical at this time.

At such a critical moment, Su Chen dared to boldly use Thompson and Draymond Green as the core, because he had the confidence to know their abilities.

Of course, there is also the credit of analog glasses.

And Popovich doesn't have that confidence, and at such a critical moment, he believes in the substitutes.

No matter how good Popovich is now, it is impossible to come up with a defensive strategy that perfectly copes with the tactics of ten years from now in a short period of time.

Even the Spurs, who came later, didn't really say that they could come up with a perfect strategy for limiting the ball.

Maybe the end will not be so easy, but for Su Chen, winning the Spurs now will have an end to it.

Honk.

The suspension ends.

The emotions of the whole Warriors team are excited, and the Spurs will have a solemn face.

Those who don't know think that the Spurs are ten points behind.

There were no substitutions in the lineup, and it was obvious that both sides were planning to use this lineup to fight.

The Spurs didn't play any complicated tactics in this round, and the Warriors didn't defend the team.

Parker was already running out of time with the ball, and they still had a 10-point lead, and it was only when the clock was up to seven that Parker started to attack.

This time, Parker forced a break inside, and although the Warriors' defense rotated in place, Parker's personal ability still made a foul.

Parker, 31, wanted to savior the Lord in this way.

Parker stepped onto the free-throw line, took a deep breath to withstand the pressure, and hit both free throws.

Spurs 85:73 Warriors

The Spurs' scoring drought was finally stopped.

Spurs fans were also a little relieved, time was running out, and the score stretched to 12 points again.

As long as the time is controlled, even if the Spurs score two points, the Warriors score two points and continue to play like this.

The victory still belongs to the Spurs.

Warriors possession.

It was Curry who still held the ball, but this time Curry did not hand over the ball in the middle of the court, but moved towards the top of the arc with the ball himself.

But there was no one to stop Curry.

Instead, Green and Thompson had an off-ball pick-and-roll run, and Curry gave the ball to Thompson after the first pick-and-roll.

Thompson didn't make any more complicated runs this time, but went straight to the ball after making a pick-and-roll.

That didn't even surprise Spurs defender Danny Green.

In the timeout, Popovich's arrangement was to ask them to pay more attention to the opponent's movement, because the opponent would only shoot after many cooperations.

Such a simple shot is a bit unexpected.

Danny Green was out of position and forced himself straight towards Thompson.

He is also a shooter, and he knows that he can't give the opponent such a big vacancy to find a feel, even if it is a foul, don't give the opponent such an easy way to throw the hand hot.

Honk!

The whistle blew.

Danny Green fouled, and Thompson also fell to the ground weightlessly after the shot.

Danny Green raised his hand himself, and he knew he had fouled.

But just as Danny Green raised his hand, he only heard a 'whoosh' from behind him.

Ball in!

Three points and one free throw!

It's a 3+1 hit!

Thompson roared and waved his arms on the ground, and Draymond Green didn't pull Thompson up in the first place, but thrashed Thompson in celebration.

Duncan was uneasy.

He walked around where he was and felt something was wrong.

Likewise, Popovich panicked.

Pacing in place, this kind of goal left him helpless, and I don't know why he had a familiar feeling.

Maybe it's the sleepy-eyed man at the Toyota Center in 2004, or the little fish that threw in 0.4 seconds in 2005, or maybe it's the 2+1 from Nowitzki in 2006......

Not sure why.

The Spurs are obviously a historical defensive powerhouse, but they have repeatedly become a backdrop in the annals of history, as if anyone who plays the Spurs can play the best moment of their career.

From star players to role players, if anyone wants to make a name in history, go for the Spurs!

Su Chen didn't think about the buff of the Spurs background board, but Su Chen believed in Thompson's strength.

Su Chen's slightly simpler tactics were also to reduce some of Thompson's running, so that Thompson would have more physical strength to shoot.

Let this gentleman with 37 points in a single quarter go all out to fire in this quarter!

Thompson walked to the free throw line and hit the free throw safely.

Spurs 85:77 Warriors.

The margin has narrowed to 8 points.

This time, the Spurs began to panic again.

I thought Parker scored 2 points, consumed time, and should be able to control the rhythm.

Before, it was okay to be chased for points, but now it comes and goes, and it is chased for 2 points.

Now Popovich has one timeout left, and it's impossible to call a timeout now.

Popovich was on the sidelines and made a downward gesture to Parker.

Parker understood.

The 24-second offensive time was consumed by Parker again before he started to attack.

With such a time-consuming attack, it is impossible to have any good chances.

Leonard receives a pass and forces a shot under Barnes' defense.

Striking iron.

The Spurs don't fight for frontcourt rebounds either, and when Leonard makes a shot, the whole Spurs team has begun to retreat.

There was no chance to switch offense, and the Warriors were back in positional battle.

The Warriors' tactics are not too complicated, and at the same time, the shooting percentage is also down, after all, you can't expect Thompson's goals to be as difficult as the ball.

A tug-of-war began on the field.

Compared to the Spurs' time-consuming style of play, the Warriors' chances are still slightly better, but not much better.

The Spurs' defensive intensity was full, and the referee didn't give any body hair whistle, which was obviously a measure to encourage confrontation.
