Duncan is always a silent image, but in fact he is a very happy player. And like Popovich, he likes running trains all over his mouth.


    When Duncan was selected by the Spurs, the Spurs team went to Duncan''s hometown to inspect the talent awe inspiring big guy. result. Because Popovich and his party were late, Duncan pretended to be drowned in order to "punish" them, which scared Popovich and all the management of the Spurs.


    However, Duncan is actually a great swimmer. If it wasn''t for fear of sharks, he might have become a professional swimmer...


    there was also a time when Ken''s first summer league game was blocked by tough center Greg Ostertag. Popovich saw this situation and encouraged Duncan on the sideline, "it doesn''t matter, keep shooting, we''ll play great!"


    As a result, Duncan said coldly, "I told you it was wrong to choose me."


    There are many cases about Duncan''s teasing, not to mention his famous classic case of "laughing and laughing and being sent off".


    So, if you think Duncan is just a dumb, dumb, big man, you''re wrong.


    But this time, when Duncan said to the camera, "we''ll see", no one knew whether Duncan was joking or serious.


    Duncan may be funny, but he hardly ever gets angry. It''s not in accordance with Duncan''s style to have a verbal fight with an opponent before a match.


    But this time he took the initiative to attack, which can only show one problem - Duncan''s attitude to this round of series is very serious!


    So, before today''s game, people want to have a good look at Duncan''s performance!


    "The Memphis Grizzlies finally came to att center to play the playoffs, but they didn''t visit as the eighth in the Midwest, but fifth in the West! This is the Western Conference semifinals. I''m Steve Cole. Welcome to this game


    Steve Cole, who sits on the podium, has been playing basketball as a commentator since he left the Suns management. And the Spurs game, he explained the most. After all, he played under Popovich and worked with Duncan. As a result, he was always able to analyze the Spurs'' ideas.


    Of course, the most important thing is that he can often tell some interesting stories about Popovich and Duncan.


    On the court, both teams are warming up. The scene today gave Duncan and Randolph a split screen close-up, the two people''s confrontation is undoubtedly the biggest point of today.


    "Zac''s form this year is very, very good. He played Oklahoma in the first round. He scored 30 points in two games and won 20 + 20 double doubles in one game. In the regular season, Randolph''s performance in every game almost suppressed Tim. But the regular season and the playoffs are very different. Besides, Duncan spoke yesterday. Let''s see As soon as Cole came up, he threw out the highlights of the game. Randolph vs Duncan, the most fierce confrontation in position four, will determine the fate of the two teams.


    But at this time, Popovich on the bench is the layout of Parker and Ginobili offensive tactics. This year, Popovich did an experiment. He made the team try to transform from defensive to team offensive. On the offensive side, the main players are Ginobili and Parker.


    Ginobili is the first regular season full debut in his career, marking the Spurs from "d era" to "G era". Don''t think Popovich is an old man, he must be an antique. In fact, Popovich''s tactical play has been keeping pace with the times.


    "Don''t be afraid of their defense, use the ball more to find scoring opportunities. I know, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook were almost crying in the last round by the Grizzlies. But they are children, you are not! Children can make mistakes, you can''t! Go on the court and take advantage of the opportunity. As long as the attack keeps shifting, we can firmly grasp the rhythm Popovich still intends to rely on the back attack to get points, the key is that he is also under Ginobili and Parker can use.


    On the other side, the Grizzlies bench, Hollins''s strategy is to attack the inside. He is confident with the black and white bears, the Spurs this year''s interior in the eyes of Hollins is not enough to see.


    Five minutes later, the two sides started to stand in the designated position, and the att center was jubilant. They all believe in Duncan and Popovich, and believe that the Western Conference semifinals are not the end of the Spurs.


    But in link''s eyes, the Spurs are lucky enough. After all, in the original history, the Spurs did not even have the first round...


    "both sides jumped, and Pau Gasol easily won the ball! Popovich in the playoffs decided to let veteran inside Mike day start, and will rise from the second round of Blair into the bench. But it has to be said that Macbeth is also a short inside line. His height of 2.06 meters is only better than Blair, who is known to wear shoes for two meters. The first round of the Hornets, mcdace has not met any challenges. But today, I hope this veteran can withstand the fire of black and white bears


    Coll just finished, the Grizzlies launched their first attack! The basketball played on the outside a few times, but the Grizzlies were just waiting for Randolph to get a place. Randolph is also very positive. He doesn''t want to lose face in front of link and others. In the face of Duncan''s remarks, the only thing big black bear wants is to respond with action!Duncan had no expression and stood up to Randolph. He didn''t gnash his teeth or look nervous. It''s like, you''re just a nobody.


    This is Duncan. His composure on the court is not to be confused with his playfulness off the court.


    Randolph needs to hold his position and raise his right hand! Conley immediately put the ball in, grizzlies come up to attack the inside line!


    "Randolph received the basketball, Duncan can effectively prevent this attack!"


    The whole audience, including Steve Cole, stood up. Who could have thought that the biggest attraction of today''s competition was staged at the beginning.


    Randolph backed up two times, but Duncan didn''t budge. He''s as solid as a rock and never gives in on the defensive side! What Duncan said yesterday was not a joke to Randolph! This guy is a typical off-court tease, tough guy on the court!


    Randolph gritted his teeth, remembering that Duncan had blocked his first few attacks in his second regular season spurs. Duncan is a guy who doesn''t have to be swayed, and he is extremely accurate about Randolph''s timing. That day, the Grizzlies won the game for the third time in link''s career of 24 points and 10 assists.


    But Randolph doesn''t believe in evil. Duncan''s performance has been so bad all season. He can''t change every time he comes to his place!


    So, Randolph suddenly with Duncan as the axis, quickly turned around and walked to the basket!


    Instead of being thrown away, Duncan kept his chest close to Randolph to prevent him from breaking through comfortably. And raised his arms at all times to prevent him from shooting, but also blocked Randolph''s passing route.


    "Shit!" Randolph was covered by Duncan and could not see anything. The 21''s defense was much more tight than Ibaka, who only knew how to use his body.


    In just one round, Randolph realized the gap between the thunder and the Spurs, and link said, "your opponent is Tim Duncan."


    But it''s too late to know. Randolph forced a layup with Duncan on his elbow, but still couldn''t escape being blocked.


    "Pa!" A clear ring, Duncan will Randolph''s layup to death pressed on the backboard!


    Duncan has been the best defensive player for 13 consecutive seasons! Although the record is broken this year, it doesn''t mean Duncan is easy to bully!


    The basketball rebounded suddenly after hitting the backboard, and veteran Macbeth had been firmly stuck in the position to protect the rebounds. After that, he passed Ginobili directly, and the Spurs'' counterattack instantly formed!


    Popovich has been experimenting with a faster pace of attack since this year, which is why he needs Ginobili to start.


    Argentina knife straight to the Grizzlies hinterland, with a puzzling European step, shake off the pursuit of Tony Allen, easy to counterattack lay up.


    At that moment, the stands of ATT center seemed to roll up. What dark horse, what miracle. At att center, it''s only buried!


    Randolph looked back at Duncan, only to find that the other side was still expressionless, which made him angry.


    Grizzlies'' first scoring point was flat on the first attack, but Hollins wasn''t worried. He looked up at link and made a few gestures.


    If we change the score point, the problem will be solved? Duncan is old and determined, but the Spurs small forward Richard Jefferson is not necessarily.


    Hollins believes the guy has not forgotten the horror of being dominated by link in the regular season.
