NBA: I just want to play soy sauce, you let me win the championship

Chapter 275 The joy of forcing Larry Bird

The Spurs retreated quickly and the Kings failed to make a fast break.

Lu Yuanzhi led Ginobili to move, and Ginobili couldn't help but ask, "How did you do that?"

"Is that so?" Lu Yuanzhi took advantage of Ginobili turning his head to observe Divac holding the ball, and also seized the opportunity to run away from Ginobili.

Ginobili's action of observing the ball holder was fake. He had been prepared for it. Seeing that Lu Yuanzhi had been fooled, he quickly turned around and followed him.

This pursuit defense was even better than what Lu Yuanzhi did just now.

But Divac still passed the ball over Ginobili's head.

Lu Yuanzhi is taller and has a longer wingspan, so Divac can pass the ball ahead of time and avoid Ginobili's interception.

But Ginobili didn't care, he didn't lose his defensive position.

Lu Yuanzhi then lowered his focus, released the ball with his right hand, and started a confrontation with Ginobili with his left arm.

"boom!"

After the muscle confrontation, Ginobili's center of gravity was obviously unstable and he took a step back uncontrollably.

Worse!

Ginobili gritted his teeth and tried his best to regain his center of gravity and continued to block the assault route on the right side of Lu Yuanzhi.

But at this moment, Lu Yuanzhi made a high ball, suddenly and strangely rushed to the left, and suddenly came behind Ginobili.

High Korf European Step!

Exactly the same action as I did just now?

Only then did Ginobili realize that Lu Yuanzhi's current technical moves were exactly the same as what he did in the last round!
You don't take me seriously!

Ginobili also made the same choice as Lu Yuanzhi, turning to the left. When he stretched out his right hand to block the shot, he saw his teammate Willis also coming over to defend.

Very good!
Max, what will you do now?
How to do?
After Lu Yuanzhi finished the European step and got a certain amount of space, he accelerated again. Facing Willis who couldn't jump and Ginobili who didn't take off fully, he exerted force and his body suddenly jumped into the air.

Ginobili's eyelids jumped when he saw the height of Lu Yuanzhi's jump. How could he jump so high?

Didn't he just use the European step to change direction?
Before Ginobili could figure it out, Lu Yuanzhi's strong body came forward, knocked Ginobili away in the air, and then dunked the ball over Willis' head again!
"beep--"

The referee's whistle also sounded, and Spurs No. 20 Ginobili blocked the foul!
Unknowingly, Ginobili had entered the reasonable collision zone. He just tried to intercept Lu Yuanzhi's movement, which was naturally a foul.

Ginobili lay on the floor, feeling that everything in front of him was unreal.

What's going on with Max?

Even if he used the same moves to deal with me, how did he manage to take a leisurely stroll and suddenly burst out on the spot, not only pushing me into the air, but also dunking our center.

Is this still a normal human being?

Ginobili couldn't figure it out, but then Lu Yuanzhi's handsome face suddenly appeared above his head, "Welcome to the NBA, rookie!"

Lu Yuanzhi just blocked Ginobili and kept silent, just because he wanted to use the same action to teach the Argentinian a lesson and then use the same rubbish words.

Judging from Ginobili's stunned expression, this trash talk came at the right time.

Ah, I can finally understand the joy of forcing king Larry Bird.

When Lu Yuanzhi stepped to the free throw line, the Samurai fans started shouting "MVP" in unison.

At first, the sound was still a bit scattered, coming from every corner of the auditorium.

Is this talking about the All-Star Game MVP?Immediately afterwards, the voices slowly gathered, and finally turned into a loud and uniform sound of cheering.

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

Lu Yuanzhi raised his hand, waved his arm toward the audience, and then took action, hitting the ball firmly with a penalty.

95: 95!

Lu Yuanzhi scored 5 points in a row after coming on the court, and then blocked the Spurs' offensive arrow Ginobili, helping the team even the score.

Finally, Popovich couldn't stand it anymore, called a timeout, rearranged his tactics, and then replaced Duncan.

If he doesn't come up, Duncan won't have to play when the Kings regain their momentum at home.

In the last 7 minutes, the Spurs' lineup consisted of Duncan, Stephen Jackson, Bowen, Ginobili and Parker. They replaced the aging Steve Jackson and the underperforming Malik Rose, and chose to let Duncan sit inside. , Wu Sheng matched the first and fourth small lineups at power forward.

The four players on the outside will maximize the team's offensive attributes, while Duncan on the inside is the team's defensive backbone.

No matter who on the Kings wants to attack the inside, they must get through Duncan.

The Kings, on the other hand, remain unchanged in response to all changes, and they still have the same main lineup at the beginning, with Divac, Webber, Stojakovic, Lu Yuanzhi and Bibby, one small and four big!
Two lineups with completely opposite ideas.

In fact, there is no good or bad lineup, just like Cole playing a dead five in the Warriors, with unlimited rotation of defensive players. Although Mr. Green is not tall, he has a strong ability to protect the basket, and his defensive effect is not bad.

On the offensive end, they use the mobility of the five small players to create more shooting opportunities for Curry and Thompson.

But with such a lineup, after Cole got the U.S. national team, it became the "True Death Five". The defense couldn't guard it and the offense couldn't open up, which directly pronounced death for the U.S. team.

Therefore, the lineup is not the key, the key is the characteristics of the players.

For the Spurs, although Duncan, who is not yet 27 years old, has experienced several serious injuries, his footsteps are still flexible and his interior defensive deterrent is still there. If he alone guards the interior, it will be an insurmountable mountain for the Kings.

You can't judge the 38-year-old Duncan based on the 26-year-old Duncan's performance.

The Spurs don't worry about interior defense and rebounding at all, so they naturally want to strengthen their offense and field a more aggressive four-small lineup.

The opposite is true for the Kings. Stojakovic, who is 206 centimeters tall, can keep up with the opponent's small forward, and Lu Yuanzhi, who is also 206 centimeters tall, can defend the opponent's assault captain Ginobili. Naturally, he must Play more big men to protect your inside line.

After all, Divac is not young. One-on-one, he will be beaten by Duncan.

The Spurs, who appeared at the same time as GDP, finally became complete again and showed their fangs again.

After Parker used his speed to break through into the paint, Divac helped defend. Lu Yuanzhi was afraid of Ginobili's outside shooting and did not dare to shrink too much. As a result, Parker broke through and passed the ball to Duncan, who completed an unpretentious shot. Dunk.

At 97:95, the Spurs took the lead again.

When the Kings came to the offensive round, Divac mentioned high-post support, but Duncan did not follow him, but asked Stephen Jackson to defend him.

Stephen Jackson is only 203 centimeters tall. Although this small man stands in front of Divac and makes it impossible for Divac to shoot comfortably, Stephen Jackson cannot interfere with Divac's pass.

Weber dragged Duncan and grabbed position on one side of the penalty area. Stojakovic used Lu Yuanzhi's cover to penetrate the basket from the other side and received Divac's pass for an easy layup.

97: 97!

The two teams tied the score again.

The game became tense again.
