The San Antonio Spurs, ever since they picked Tim Duncan in 1997, have been the evergreen of the West. During this period, they won four championships, and they have been in the ranks of the western strong teams. They are the kind of existence that seems to be unimportant, but often can make those popular teams fly.
Until this year, Duncan is 35, Ginobili is 34, Parker is nearly 30, Popovich is 62, and the Spurs are still one of the strongest teams in the West. The Spurs have lost only 10 games in the regular season. Their 48-10 record keeps this team at the top of the Western Conference!
In the face of this level of opponents, the Grizzlies from top to bottom dare not slack off. They arrived at att center early this morning to prepare for the game in the evening.
Among them, the most serious is undoubtedly link. He is not a man to laugh today. Several times, Randolph and link joked with each other, but he was cold with his own smile.
"What happened to that guy today? If he has a grudge against the Rockets, does he have a grudge against all the teams in Texas? " On the court, make complaints about Linke, who is shooting the designated shots, Randolph Tucao up.
"God knows what''s going on. He hasn''t been normal since yesterday. When we were on the riverside trail yesterday, he was watching the game video of the Spurs! God, I''m bored to death, and I don''t want to watch the Spurs game video Tony Allen echoed.
"You say, that boy is lovelorn. During the all star game, I bought him two boxes of sports protective products, and put them in his bag very kindly. I don''t know whether he is useful or not
As soon as Randolph said this, link cast his eyes. Those two idiots don''t know how to speak ill of others.
"Zach, aren''t you afraid that Tim Duncan will kick your ass?" Link strikes back.
"Afraid? Don''t underestimate uncle Zach, I''m better than kg! "
"Zach Randolph''s low position singles, Duncan is a rock! Randolph turned over the jump shot, Duncan even jump, beautiful cover, beautiful. My God, the first quarter is not over, this is the second time Duncan has blocked Randolph
On the stage, Steve Cole clapped for Duncan. After five minutes in the first quarter, Duncan has already awarded Randolph two. And every time he finished, Randolph turned to look at Duncan, only to find that 21 good facial expression was very interesting.
"Shit!" Randolph let out a roar, boasting in front of link before the game. Today, Duncan is as strong as a chicken on the defensive end.
Randolph has made three shots in just five minutes, but none of them hit. If he had not just won two free throws, Randolph would have been embarrassed.
"The Grizzlies had a big problem with their offense, and it''s clear that the inside offense they''re proud of doesn''t work today. Mark Gasol had just tried an attack, but also failed to hit under the excellent defense of Dejuan Blair. The Grizzlies may have to change their offensive strategy. Not every game can rely on the black and white bears to solve the problem
Just as coll finished, the Grizzlies opened the touchline. This time, Randolph passed the ball to Conley. Conley''s holding the ball suddenly, and the defense of "French sports car" has always been the average level, but the Spurs'' system has covered up this point.
Conley had just entered the inside line when Blair stopped him. Blair is 2.01 meters tall, but more than 120 kg. It is a real "meat mountain". Conley connected it directly, afraid there was no good fruit to eat.
So he broke through the goal and was ready to find Tony Allen who followed.
However, as soon as Conley''s ball went out, "knife" Ginobili stretched out his arm, and that''s what he was waiting for!
Before Tony Allen got the basketball, Ginobili snatched the ball and hit back!
Conley cursed. The Spurs are so smart!
Ginobili pushed all the way to the basket. Behind him, Tony Allen was after him.
After Ginobili took off and lay up, he knew that Tony Allen was not a bad guy, so he made a hand change layup in the air to avoid Tony Allen''s block.
See Ginobili goal, link can not help feeling, this guy is more and more coquettish ah, full of Sao operation.
After Ginobili used the Grizzlies'' mistake to score, the Spurs had a 5-point lead over the Grizzlies. 12 to 7, the Grizzlies have not scored in double. Link''s two points, Randolph''s two points and Conley''s three points are all the Grizzlies'' scoring sources. Not counting Randolph''s two free throws, the Grizzlies have only scored two games.
This kind of attack efficiency, of course, is what Hollins didn''t want to see.
So he called off the game, hoping to make some adjustments. As a defensive expert, Hollins can clearly see that he is proud of the inside attack is completely limited. He needs to think of other ways, for example, to let link attack.
But Hollins was also wary, for he could assure him that Popovich had expected to do so and was ready to deal with link.However, looking at the situation on the field, Hollins had no choice, "next we launch attacks from the outside line, link, actively interspersed running position, seize the opportunity to give the spurs a hit. Our attack efficiency is too low, we must find a way to find the gap. The opponent is the first in the West. Don''t think you can beat the opponent easily with two strokes! "
Finally, Hollins chose to increase link''s shot. I just don''t know how Popovich dealt with link.
"Richard, the Grizzlies are going to strengthen the attack at position three. Remember the training content of these days, stick close to him, don''t give any chance. If he breaks, lead him into a defensive trap. In short, don''t let him score easily On the other hand, Popovich is talking about link.
The old man attaches great importance to that drop draft. He has scored 30 points, scored two doubles, staged a winner, and won the rookie MVP. There''s no reason not to take that guy seriously.
The pause is over. Link is ready to play. Before the game, Battier, who made his debut after joining the Grizzlies, stood up and muttered a few words in link''s ear.
The scene photographer found the scene and photographed it.
"Oh? Is Battier advising link? As we all know, the Grizzlies trade back to Battier, in addition to the need for his combat power, must also need him to guide link. At present, they are very happy with each other. "
Steve Cole began to look forward to it, while Richard Jefferson was nervous. What kind of medicine are those two guys selling!
For the first time since the Grizzlies stopped to come back, Jefferson obviously found that link''s running became more active.
This time, Randolph did not head iron into the interior line and Duncan single, but for link to do a no ball cover.
Linkdoo went outside the right three-point line and received Conley''s pass. But the defensive Richard Jefferson also quickly forced up, according to Popovich''s account, clinging to link, not giving him any shot space.
Link is not flustered. He has been training with defenders like Tony Allen and Battier for a long time. What kind of rough defense has he never seen?
I saw the No. 0 draft calmly holding the ball with both hands and making a few exploratory steps. This immediately attracted Duncan''s attention, he knew that he needed to make up for it as soon as link broke through.
With the strength of the system to defend, this is the Spurs in the defensive side of the real strength.
Link first poked out a step, tricked Richard Jefferson''s center of gravity, and then immediately turned around!
Jefferson did not expect that link''s breakthrough would be so decisive, his exploratory step is full of killer breath.
Duncan saw the delay immediately. He couldn''t give link any chance, not even the chance to stop the jump shot and pass the ball.
"Too tender!" Popovich smiles, although Jefferson is broken, but he does force link into the defensive trap. What''s more, Duncan''s response speed is very fast.
Now, link, don''t even talk about shooting. There''s no room for passing!
But just then, link, who was staring at the basket, suddenly shook his wrist and passed the basketball from Duncan!
The basketball is almost wiped Duncan''s body was sent out, and then accurately fell into Randolph''s hands!
"This!" Popovich stood up. He couldn''t have seen Randolph! Duncan blocked Randolph. How did this guy do it!?
In fact, link knew that Duncan would delay himself when he broke through. First of all, he has watched a lot of the Spurs'' game videos recently, knowing their defensive habits. Second, Battier just reminded him to be careful of the Spurs'' defensive traps. Combined with his rich experience, link naturally knows that this is the best time to choose the pass.
As a result, link broke through without hesitation or even looking, seizing the fleeting opportunity to pass the ball. Where is Randolph? Link doesn''t have to look with his eyes, but he has his heart!
Hill is a forward who can pass, so it''s easy for link to pass.
After receiving the basketball, Randolph directly burst under the basket. Today, he has been taken two by Duncan, and has not scored a goal in sports war, which has long let the big black bear hold his breath.
"Bang!"
The basket made a huge noise. Randolph''s weight of nearly 120 kg plus the huge force made the whole basketball stand dangle.
Randolph hit himself in the chest after landing, which was the Grizzlies'' most morale boosting goal so far.
Link was not as excited as Randolph. After smiling at the big black bear, he immediately stepped back. He has simulated that goal in his head countless times, so he won''t be surprised at all.
Popovich touched his chin, and it seemed more difficult than he thought it would be to limit the drop.
