Regarding Tim Duncan's offensive skills, the Heat's scouting report reads:

Tim Duncan's versatile scoring techniques are a reflection of not only his basketball acuity, but also his all-around ability on the offensive end. He has the flexibility to adapt to the situation of the game and contribute points to the team in the most efficient way.

Duncan's mid-range shot is a key weapon in his scoring technique. He is able to make steady shots near the free-throw line and from mid-to-long range. Not only does this make him a threat to inside outreach, but it also allows him to draw defenders away from the interior and create space for his teammates. Duncan's mid-range shooting ability makes him difficult to defend in games, and opponents need to make defensive choices.

In key matches, Duncan often makes the difference between winning and losing the game by making a shot in a pinch-time selection, which requires judgment on the pace of the game and the defenders. This consistent mid-range shooting ability makes him a scoring guarantee for the Spurs in the pinch.

Offensive skills under the basket are equally impressive. His low-post offense includes back-to-back singles, step-back jumpers, and pick-and-rolls, and the versatility of these techniques allows him to be flexible against different defensive strategies. His physical superiority and excellent footwork skills allow him to make physical contact with opponents in the low post, creating scoring opportunities.

Duncan's back-to-back skills allow him to stay in a stable position against defenders, making it easier to shoot. His step-back jumper allows him to shoot and score even when defenders raise their hands to block.

Duncan is a player who reads defense well, and he is able to make shot selections based on the position and movement of the defender. He knows when to shoot from the center and when to attack from the low post, and the wisdom of that shot selection allows him to score more efficiently in the game.

Duncan often decides how to shoot by looking at the opponent's defensive posture. If the opponent's defense is close, he will choose to play with his back to the single; If the opponent presses too closely, he will opt for a step-back jumper to maximize the opponent's defensive mistakes.

……

It's about a few thousand words.

If it weren't for the fact that the scout knew what it meant to be "well detailed," then the scouting report on Tim Duncan, on the offensive end alone, would be enough to write a 10,000-word paper.

The Heat's scouts tried to "slice" Tim Duncan to shreds in order to find a way to deal with him, but in the end it seemed to be the exact opposite.

Regarding this scouting report, Woody only had a two-word evaluation of Tim Duncan after reading it:

Invincibility!

Against this kind of guy with comprehensive scoring means, Woody did not rush forward, but was very cautious in his position.

He doesn't plan to take the initiative as he has done in the past, but to respond based on Tim Duncan's reaction.

This came to Duncan's surprise, and after he motioned for his teammates to pull away, he realized that Woody's defense was not urgent, but while waiting for him to make the first shot, he felt that the Spurs' scouts should withhold their wages.

However, he did not panic, and immediately used his stunt, hitting the board at a 45-degree angle.

The shot was very decisive, and before that, he deliberately slowed down the pace of the dribble to paralyze Woody's defensive momentum.

The effect is still good, when Woody pounces, although there is no obvious leakage. But his interference came after Tim Duncan's shooting was fully formed.

"Phew! Boom! Swish! ”

The ball hit the backboard straight and then bounced off the basket, bounced off slightly, and fell straight into the basket.

Some people have scored at least half of their careers by walking, and Tim Duncan's at least half of his career has come from this unpretentious scoring.

Even most of the balls, even the arc of the throw, the angle of the rebound are exactly the same.

What does it mean to be "made into steel"?

Tim Duncan tells you the answer with "45 degree angle boarding"!

Barkley shook his head from the commentary podium.

It's really rare for him to see a round in which Woody loses on both ends of the floor.

Especially this season.

Tim Duncan is really kinky.

It's not for nothing that this man booked the No. 1 power forward in NBA history after only half of his career.

Woody shouldn't have been affected, though.

The broadcast camera flashed by, and you could see his still resolute eyes.

It was the Heat's turn to attack again, and Shaq O'Neal originally wanted to give this round to Woody, but Woody didn't mean to be active, and from the gesture secretly given by Alstom, he also wanted to continue to hit him this point this round, so Shaq took a deep breath and fought hand-to-hand with Rasu, the "big meat shield", and stuck out of the basket position strongly, and received the ball smoothly.

Come on!

Keep fouling!

Wasn't it quite horizontal just now?

Shaq O'Neill's heart is actually holding a breath of anger.

At the moment, Lasu did not continue to use the "shark cutting" tactic, but his side did not hesitate at all, holding the ball and playing continuously.

The sound of the collision reached the spectator on the sidelines, and an old fan with a white beard subconsciously shrank his head, he didn't dare to imagine what kind of sauce he would be if he was caught in the middle.

Rasu's expression gradually became violent.

He desperately tried to hold off Shaq O'Neal.

But where can he resist the "Shark's Might".

Even if he is best at his tonnage in the NBA, in front of the "big shark", he can't see any advantage.

Turned, dunked, "shark into the sea", and sank hard, so that the difference came to 3-2.

The Heat regained the lead.

There is nothing wrong with Alstom's decision-making.

If Rasu doesn't foul, Shaq O'Neal can score easily, and if Rasu fouls, then he will have two fouls in his hand, and Popovich should have a headache!

After Shaq made this attack, Alstom was even more sure of his thoughts.

Tony Parker got the ball up front, and this time Tim Duncan stepped forward and stuck Alston very well. But Woody is clearly getting used to Tony Parker's rhythm this time around.

The "French trot", which had been dribbling several times in a row, drove for a long time, and was stunned to "spin in place", and could not enter the inside line at all.

Popovich started "WTF" on the sidelines and Parker flicked the ball towards the wing.

The long-haired Argentine handsomely held the ball, and in the face of Wade, who defended in front of him in time, a feint forced Wade to take half a step back, and in this half-step space, Ginobili smoothly collected the ball back into his hand, raised his hand and threw it.

“FXXK！”

Popovich's scolding became louder.

Parker was enough to keep him uneasy, and the Spurs had even more uneasy.

But the scolding came to an abrupt end halfway through, as the ball flew out of his scolding and fell straight into the basket, causing the audience to cheer and keep Popovich shut.

This is Manu Ginobili, a guy who walks between the reasonable and the unreasonable.

He was also the only Spurs player who could silence an angry Popovich.

That's something that even Tim Duncan can't do.

Of course, Tim Duncan will not let Popovich scold so much, all his choices are relatively reasonable choices.

If it weren't for the "cool male protagonist"!

He has the aura that you can think of as a "big male protagonist".

Oh, the only slot may be that he trusts his own people too much, which made his agent steal 15 million US dollars from him.

However, it is easy to fall into dementia when it comes to the management of money, and it is not only him an NBA player, but also tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of black players in their careers, and there are not a few who declare bankruptcy at the moment of retirement.

This is a common problem of this race.

Whatever God gives, of course he takes away.

5-3！

Ginobili's handsome "top shot" gave the Spurs the lead again, and also made Wade the "sinner" of the Heat at the moment.

He was desperate to get the ball back, but instead it was exploited by the spurs, and a successful defense combined with a defensive counterattack gave the Spurs a four-point lead at the start of the game.

That advantage kept them going until the end of the first half.

48 to 44.

This is the final half-time score.

The Spurs scored 48 points themselves, which is nothing to say, the state is not too good, it is not bad, it can only be said that it is average. But they limited the Heat's halftime scoring to less than 45 points.

This is crucial.

This is the Heat's fewest points in a half so far this season.

They were very successful defending against the Heat tonight.

From a strategic point of view, it was not a particularly correct decision to "cut the shark" at the beginning, and by the end of the half, Shaq had scored 16 points, 10 of which were made from 10 shots, and seven goals were scored. If he hadn't made 2 of 6 free throws, he would have scored even more tonight.

The "shark cutter" clearly angered him.

But for the rest of the defense, it was still very successful.

Wade scored just five points in the half under the constraints of the Spurs' perimeter defense led by Bruce Bowen.

In addition, Tim Duncan did a good job of restricting Woody.

Aside from the opening round, there weren't really many head-to-head encounters between them in the first half, but Woody only took seven shots in the first half, which shows that Tim Duncan's defense in this game was mainly focused on limiting Woody's catch.

This strategy has been used by Artest before, and it has been extremely successful.

Barkley said: "Obviously the Spurs have identified a weakness in Woody from the footage of that game, and his ability to get rid of the ball needs to be improved. ”

It's not a big deal, because if you want to limit Woody off the ball, it's very important to have the same size as him, and the same strength as him, at least not too weak.

So far, there have been a lot of teams that have started from restricting Woody from receiving the ball, but only two people from two teams have actually done it, one is Artest, and the other is Tim Duncan tonight.

"Tim, it's a mountain that's hard to climb!" ESPN's Mike Brin is also lamenting Tim Duncan.

The guy scored 12 points in the first half, in addition to 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal.

Compared to him, Woody only had 8 points in the first half, in addition to only 5 rebounds, which means 1 more assists than him. The same is true for the data on the defensive end, 1 block and 1 steal, and it looks like it's half a pound.

The data has been slightly suppressed, which is the first time it has happened to Woody in the new season.

Against Tim Duncan, Woody clearly has quite a few questions.

Stan Van Gundy didn't say much.

As the head coach, he looked at the game from a global perspective, and the Heat's interior did not suffer, Shaq and Woody scored 24 points.

On the Spurs' side, Tim Duncan scored 12 points, but Rassell only scored 3 points, adding up to 15 points.

The Heat's interior actually won by 9 points!

Tim Duncan looked at the matchup with some advantages, but it was all based on the fact that he couldn't give Rasu the support he usually did in time. It's tantamount to saying that Woody has pinned down Tim Duncan's help defense under the basket and weakened some of his ability in this area.

The reason why the Heat really lost in the first half was still on their perimeter.

Ginobili alone scored 17 points in the first half, one more than Shaq O'Neal. It was his wild form that gave the Spurs the lead.

After this guy came back from the Olympics, the whole person became even more "crazy", and his playing style was unreasonable, and this feeling was even more unstoppable.

In the second half, the Heat wanted to chase the difference back, and they had to find a way to limit this guy.

Stan Van Gundy's routine is also very simple, allowing Wade to force him to drive to the basket and then use Woody and Gerald Wallace to assist him in disrupting his layup.

Anyway, given his state tonight, Van Gundy doesn't plan to let him shoot from the outside again.

Wade's expression was numb, and he nodded indifferently.

Tonight is another night for the other side to join forces on the outside.

It's been several nights in a row......

This made his mentality a little bit up and down.

You know, people don't say anything about the "Heat Team Three Cs" now, when it comes to the Heat team, it's all "Audi" combinations now, this Nima, he Wade is about to find out this person. At this moment, he is so anxious.

But as the "biggest war criminal" in the first half, what can he do now?

He could only do as he was told.

Now he is just one chance away.

Not to prove how great he is, but to prove that what belongs to him will be taken back!

We'll see!

The second half of the game began.

As soon as he came up, the Heat immediately arranged for Wade to come forward and force him to break through with the ball at the same time as Ginobili got the ball.

The Argentine did not hesitate, seeing Wade forcing this fierce, he twisted and broke through after a pause, and used explosive power to grab the position, and stuck Wade behind him. Gerald Wallace pressed over as he got to the free throw line.

Ginobili's vision is not bad, and when he caught a glimpse of Wallace, he immediately looked for his teammates.

Bruce Bowen, who was let out, raised his hand to make an open three-pointer.

"Bang dang!"

Miss!

It was his first shot of the night.

But when the ball popped up, he didn't panic, I have Tim Duncan, what am I afraid of?

Duncan also watched where the basketball popped up while sticking Woody firmly behind him.

But before the ball could pop out, Woody behind him was already exerting his strength, which caught Duncan a little off guard and messed up the rhythm. At this time, he didn't care about the position again, but looked at the basketball deadly, and when the ball popped up, he immediately jumped, but a figure next to him jumped high and grabbed the ball in his hand one step faster than him.
