Chapter 276 Demon Sword?Give me the sheath!
Both teams are using the characteristics of their stars to try to gain points in this contest.

But until the last minute of the game, neither team could find a way to completely defeat their opponents.

At 107:107, the Kings and Spurs tied again.

Ordinarily, a game with multiple offensive rounds and high scoring will have a more comfortable rhythm for the Kings.

But contrary to the impression, although the Spurs are a good defensive team, after Robinson retired and Parker and Ginobili came on, the Spurs' scoring average was not low.

在15-16赛季邓肯退役的那个赛季之前的7个赛季,马刺队常规赛的场均得分都超过100分,最高的一年甚至达到了105.4分。

In the earlier season when Parker and Ginobili were training, the Spurs' scoring average was also in the upper-middle range in the league.

As long as the offense gets the ball rolling from Parker and Ginobili, the Spurs won't be low on points.

Popovich saw that David Robinson had lost his dominance and this season was trying to let Parker and Ginobili shoulder more of the offensive load.

Therefore, the Spurs are no stranger to high scores now.

"In the last few attacks, the ball must pass through Tim's hands."

"After Tim attracted the attack, Tony and Manu tried to break into the inside and score in the most secure way."

"Bruce and Stephen, you are lying on the outside to provide fire support to the team."

The Spurs called a timeout in the last minute to arrange their own offense.

Popovich didn't have much confidence in Ginobili at this time, not to mention that he had no outstanding performance at all after being targeted by Lu Yuanzhi.

So, if the Spurs want to win in Samurai, they still have to rely on Duncan.

On the other side, on the Kings bench, Adelman is emphasizing defense.

"I have nothing to say about offense. You are all true offensive masters and will make accurate judgments at critical moments."

"On the defensive end, you have to keep an eye on your own people, shrink appropriately, and don't let your opponent score easily under the basket!"

"Max, pay attention to protecting the inside. If necessary, you can let go of the Argentinian's outside shot."

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Adelman with a puzzled look.

ah?Let Ginobili shoot?
Are you afraid that you have lost your mind and gone crazy?

"Don't be fooled by his miraculous performance of three out of three shots in the final moments of the third quarter!" Adelman said, grabbing the statistics handed over by the scout, "His three-point shooting percentage this season is less than 35%."

"At such a critical moment, for a rookie, even if he has the confidence to shoot, Popovich will not give him a chance to shoot!"

Lu Yuanzhi didn't believe that Ginobili would be soft-hearted at critical moments. The Pampas Vultures were not soft-footed shrimps. He had already proven in the national team that the more critical moments came, the more he would stand up and lead the team to victory.

However, what Adelman said about Ginobili's overall low three-point shooting percentage was something Lu Yuanzhi did not expect.

In the last minute, what everyone is pursuing is no longer scoring efficiency, but pure ability to score.

As long as you can score, you will put great pressure on the opponent.

At this time, any magic ball theory is useless.Being able to score goals is the key.

Therefore, shrinking the inside line may really be a good choice.

Because none of the Spurs' current personnel can be fully confident on the outside. On the contrary, the three GDP players can all score points steadily on the inside.

After re-appearing, Lu Yuanzhi did not blatantly shrink the inside line. The Spurs were not stupid and would rush inward when they saw him shrinking.

The ball is still in Parker's hands, and Lu Yuanzhi is an arm's length away from Ginobili. He can not only maintain the defensive pressure on Ginobili, but also has greater flexibility to help defend accordingly.

Seeing that the Kings and Lu Yuanzhi's defense didn't seem to have changed much on the surface, the Spurs also began to cooperate with their own offense.

This time, Duncan did not come up to cover Parker. Instead, he dropped to the waist position at a 45-degree angle and began to compete with Webber for position.

After a physical fight, Duncan quickly raised his hand after catching Webb. Parker hoisted the ball over and quickly ran away.

Lu Yuanzhi took a look and knew that Adelman's guess was correct. The Spurs were indeed going to attack from the inside. However, he moved his steps slightly at this time and did not immediately double-team.

Seeing that the Kings' defense had not changed, Duncan felt relieved and began to dribble and play with his back. But the moment he released the ball, the entire Kings' defensive formation changed drastically.

Lu Yuanzhi abandoned Ginobili, quickly retracted, and went straight to Duncan. Other players also started to move. Stojakovic ran between Bowen and Ginobili, ready to intercept the pass at any time. Pass to two people.

Divac moved inside to the other side, not only providing protection under the basket, but also blocking the path of the Spurs outside players from attacking the inside from the other side.

In this way, Stephen Jackson is freed up, but Wu Sheng's three-pointer is more unstable than Ginobili. Letting his three-pointer is the Kings' choice, and although Lu Yuanzhi goes inside to find Duncan, if Duncan Pass the ball to Stephen Jackson, and he can come out and interfere immediately.

There was not much time left for Duncan, but the Spurs' sixth-year rookie didn't panic at all. He continued to hold the ball and attack Webber alone. He even suppressed Webber and grabbed half of his body, giving him a good offensive position.

Fortunately, Lu Yuanzhi arrived at this time, and Duncan could no longer take his time and chose to forcefully jump up. Weber, who was slightly out of position, was still able to jump up and follow up to block the shot.

But just when the Kings generals thought the defense was successful, Duncan flicked his wrist and passed the ball out, and Parker accelerated without knowing when, leaving Bibby half a body behind, and went straight to the basket.

Divac quickly stepped in, but Parker made a false shot in the penalty area and led Divac and Bibby out.

On the other side, Duncan, who had passed the ball out, also pulled out to avoid a three-second violation in the penalty area. Webb also stayed close to Duncan, denying Duncan a chance to make a rebound shot.

Just when the Kings thought the Spurs were slowing down and preparing to organize another offensive tactic, Ginobili suddenly accelerated and rushed inside, and Bowen no longer stayed where he was and ran towards the bottom corner.

Stojakovic hesitated for a moment before deciding to go after Bowen.

What's the difference between giving Bowen an open shot in the corner and giving away points?
There are four people squatting in the paint. In such a small space, what can Ginobili do even if he gets in?
But he never expected that the Kings' inside line, which had just assembled four people, would be vacated by the Spurs' offense.

No, it’s not available yet!

Ginobili received Parker's ground pass and quickly took off for a layup, but at this moment, a huge shadow had shrouded behind him.

"Snapped!"

Ginobili's layup was blocked by Lu Yuanzhi on the backboard.

The desperate demon sword kills the demons?
Have you asked me about Lu Yuanzhi?
Demon knife?Give me the sheath!
