The players from both sides were ready, and the referee got the match ball on the sideline and slapped it twice with both hands, checking that the ball was not full of energy, and then came to the center circle.

Bradge and Pulitt were already in the centre circle, and the referee held the ball in one hand and threw it into the air with a whistle.

Blatch and Plitt jumped almost at the same time, but Plitter was a little quicker, and his bounce made up for his lack of height to help the Spurs get the ball through.

Duncan grabbed the rebound, passed to Parker and dribbled across half court.

The Wizards players quickly stepped back and took a position inside the three-point line in the backcourt, waiting for the Spurs to attack.

Coming to the frontcourt, Parker dribbled and waited for a while, and the two wings of the Spurs began to run without the ball, but the defensive rotation of the Wizards was also quite perfect, plus the two wings were also good at defense.

When he competed against the Spurs in his rookie season, Li Kaiming was deeply impressed by the breakthrough of this "French sports car", which was not only fast, but also changeable, and could be passed away if he was not careful.

So tonight his attention was very focused, Parker dribbled and broke through and found that Li Kaiming did not steal, so he simply didn't play by himself, and after a circle came out, he passed the ball to the misplaced Duncan.

At this time, the opposite Duncan is Hinrich who switched defenses with Li Kaiming, although Hinrich has very good strength in the guard, but in the face of Duncan, who can carry the peak shark in his life, he is still a little too inadequate, and Duncan easily went to the basket after receiving the ball.

Of course, such a big misplaced Wizards team will not let Duncan score just by watching it, Blatch under the basket hurriedly went over to help defend, and Li Kaiming also rushed into the interior to prepare to give this nerd who likes to touch the back of other people's heads a big hat.

At this time, Duncan also realized the importance of the Wizards' interior defense, although Pulitt under the basket was in the open position, but he couldn't find a way to pass the ball at all, and forced to give it would only be stealed, so Duncan directly distributed the ball to Parker on the outside.

Parker was a little hesitant after receiving the ball, because he didn't rely on three points without the ball to eat, this kind of ball is not the rhythm he likes, so he dribbled directly to the middle distance, and then rushed to shoot before Li Kaiming pounced, but unfortunately missed.

After Li Kaiming came out, the rebounding competition of the Wizards immediately fell into disadvantage.

Duncan alone can withstand Blatche, and Plitter, who is 2.11 meters tall, also averages 6 rebounds per game.

In the end, the rebound was grabbed by Pulitt, and then he made a strong basket to cause a foul on Brache, and after going to the free throw line, he hit one of two free throws to make it 1-0, and the Spurs scored one point first.

The Wizards attacked, after coming to the frontcourt, Duncan did not stand on the inside line like other teams, but kept following Li Kaiming, it seems that Popovich watched a lot of Li Kaiming's game videos, if Duncan is still squatting on the inside like against other teams, or if he takes a step to prevent Li Kaiming's breakthrough, it is estimated that Li Kaiming can kill the horse by himself!

But Duncan is a big-bodied interior after all, and he is also older, and his athleticism and Li Kaiming are not at the same level at all.

Li Kaiming easily got rid of Duncan with an easy acceleration, and then received the ball in the mid-range of the waist position.

Duncan hurriedly followed, but Li Kaiming's shot was faster, almost the moment he received the ball, he had already adjusted his feet to the direction facing the basket, and after the ball was in his hand, he sank down slightly, and then directly pulled it up and threw it!

Although Duncan's long-arm interference arrived late, for Li Kaiming at this time, this kind of defense he had seen if not a thousand but eight hundred, and there was no threat at all.

The basketball slammed into the net, 1 to 2!

The Spurs attacked, came to the frontcourt, Duncan did the axis on the inside, hit the ball twice after receiving the ball, and then distributed the ball to Danny Green on the outside, and the ball was transferred to Morris, who received the ball and threw it, but unfortunately missed.

Brother Facial Paralysis can even suppress James's shooting percentage, not to mention that you are a rookie who is lower than him in the same class?

Popovich on the sidelines was so angry that he gritted his teeth when he saw this scene!

Obviously, their Spurs specially tried out Leonard, and they were ready to trade with the Pacers, but they didn't expect such a good seedling to be cut off by the Wizards, causing them to retreat and trade George Hill to the Rockets' No. 14 pick with his love, and selected Marcus Morris.

Although the defense is not as good as Leonard, the shooting level of this little Morris is still much better than Leonard, and the average three-point shooting rate per game in his rookie season exceeded 30 percent, and this season he averaged 38 percent three-point shooting per game, so Popovich also made him the starting small forward.

Because the rebound was robbed last time, so this time Li Kaiming turned around early and stuck Duncan after Morris shot three points, this bad old man still wanted to struggle, but Li Kaiming sat directly on his lap, at this time the ball had already brushed out of the basket, and Blatch successfully suppressed Pulit to win the rebound.

Hinrich dribbled across half court, then played an inside and outside pick-and-roll with Braczy, then broke through to the middle range with the ball and threw a high pass in the direction of the basket!

Blatch, who turned and went down, took off directly, and after catching the ball with both hands, he vigorously exploded the basket and roared on the ground!

In the Eastern Conference finals, if you want to say who is the most aggrieved by the Wizards, it must be Blatche, who is about to be blown by the referees, and in the fourth quarter of every game, he must have 5 fouls on his back and watched his teammates play off the court, not to mention that there were two 6 fouls to leave the court......

So Blatch suppressed too much depression and anger in his heart, especially just now that Pulit also took the frontcourt rebound from him, causing his foul, which made him even more angry!

This slam dunk is more like a precursor to a volcano that has been accumulating energy for many years and is ready to start erupting!

The Spurs attacked, and after arriving in the frontcourt, Parker used Pulit's cover to directly use his speed to kill the inside, easily got rid of Blatch, and changed hands under the basket to avoid Li Kaiming's block and score!

3 to 6! The Spurs' counterattack came so quickly.

The Wizards dribbled over the halfcourt, and after arriving in the frontcourt, Hinrich continued to cooperate with Bracy, but this time the Spurs' defense reacted quickly, Parker squeezed the cover successfully, and Plitt on the inside line was directly robbed, and the two forced Hinrich to the dead corner, causing the latter to make a mistake, Parker stealed, and the French supercar started at full speed and rushed to the front court to pick up the basket.

5-6, the Spurs' defensive changes were too crisp, and even veteran point guards like Hinrich were forced into a corner.

The Wizards' offense came to the frontcourt, Li Kaiming received the ball with his back to his waist, and then turned around and hit Duncan back and couldn't shoot, the Spurs grabbed the rebound, Parker pushed the fast break and counterattacked, and a person rushed to the front court at a speed, and still didn't slow down when he reached the three-point line, Hinrich wanted to give a physical confrontation to slow Parker down, but he didn't expect the latter to use this confrontation to directly turn around with an iconic little spinning top and clean up Hinrich!

At this time, Bracy was still chasing desperately behind, and the Wizards were empty under the basket.

Parker kicked off for a layup, but just then, a figure swept out from behind Parker with a strong wind, and then leaped high, like a merciless judge, and rejected Parker's layup in the air!

Syllable!

The visual effect of this ball is extremely explosive, and it can be seen from the slow play on the scene that Li Kaiming almost dropped Parker's layup with an elbow cap!

And because his strength is very strong, this ball still bounced up one person high after he was fanned to the floor!

The mcI Center erupted in fan exclamations!

The three commentators in the commentary table also shouted as if they had seen God.

The rebound was grabbed by Leonard, who was following behind, and the ball was given to Hinrich, while Li Kaiming was running to the front court with his head covered, which was simply running back and forth in training, fortunately, he was young and in good health, and he got rid of Duncan in just a few steps, but after rushing to the front court and just receiving Hinrich's pass, the Spurs Morris Jr. immediately came over to foul!

A barely noticeable smile appeared on Popovich's lips on the sidelines.

Hehe, playing with our Spurs, you still want to break fast? There are no doors, not to mention doors, no windows!

The fast break was blocked, and the Wizards had no choice but to send the frontcourt sideline ball, and the game once again fell into the quagmire of positional warfare.

Hinrich received the ball and Li Kaiming blocked and dismantled, the latter chose to open outside to create opportunities for Hinrich, and the Spurs really still put most of their attention on Li Kaiming, Hinrich easily broke through to the inside, and then hit a mid-range jumper!

5 to 8!

The Spurs served to the frontcourt, played an inside and outside blocking and pick-and-roll tactic, and at the same time the two wings began to run without the ball, Danny Green shook off Thompson and went to the bottom corner of the side, received Parker's pass and shot directly into a three-point shot!

The Spurs are also a team that keeps pace with the times, and in this era of increasing emphasis on shooting and space, Popovich has put two shooters in the starting lineup specifically to open up space for GDP.

The Wizards served to the frontcourt, this time it was Li Kaiming and Hinrich's cover, the Spurs didn't want to give Hinrich another chance to easily shoot the vacancy, this time Duncan chose to block Hinrich on the inside, but was dismantled by Li Kaiming, Hinrich distributed the ball to Li Kaiming.

Duncan immediately pounced on the outside, Li Kaiming made a shooting move, shook off Duncan and then took the ball and took a step into the basket, and then jumped in the air to fight against Pritt's body, and scored a wipe board!

8 to 10!

Popovich on the sidelines actually called a timeout directly, this old man is really different from other coaches, as long as the play on the field does not meet his mind, he will use a timeout, regardless of the point difference.

After returning from the game, the Spurs really strengthened their defense against Li Kaiming, and used strategies such as anti-catch and bag clamping.

But at this time, Li Kaiming was no longer what it used to be, and several clever passes directly bankrupted the Spurs' targeting, and at the end of the first quarter, the Wizards led the Spurs by five points at 27-22.
