Chapter 9 Admiral, come out!
After defending against the Spurs' offense, the Kings started to train Robinson, the other three pulled to the bottom line, Bibby took possession of the ball, and Divac took Robinson to the three-point line to set up a pick-and-roll for Bibby.

Admiral, step out!
Divac's pick-and-roll was of high quality, Daniels was blocked tightly, and Robinson just stretched out his hand and allowed Bibby to rush inside.

Duncan immediately moved over to defend, but Lu Yuanzhi, who was behind him, jumped after seeing Bibby take off.

What are you doing?This is your teammate, why are you jumping up?Block a teammate?
Lu Yuanzhi is not that stupid, as for why he took off?Isn't this afraid that Duncan can really defend against two?
Lu Yuanzhi was about to be defended by Duncan for PTSD, so he also jumped half a second after Bibby took off, and the card told Duncan, either you block Bibby, and then I dunk in an alley-oop; or you let Bibby go For a layup, I will take off to add to the fun.

Duncan also immediately understood his current situation. He stretched out his long arm to interfere with Bibby but did not take off. After seeing Bibby's ball leave his hand and fly towards the basket, he turned around and blocked Lu Yuanzhi, preventing him from taking off. His alley-oop opportunities also gave him a better position to grab defensive rebounds.

But Duncan's perfunctory defense couldn't affect Bibby at all, and the white devil who rushed up made a steady rebound and added two points for the Kings.

When returning to defense, Bibby pointed at Lu Yuanzhi to indicate that he was containing him well.

The Spurs coaching staff, headed by Popovich, has noticed something is wrong. The Kings have already played two consecutive games against David Robinson.

"Greg, do you want to replace David?" An assistant put forward his suggestion.

Popovich glanced at him, thought for a moment, then shook his head, not in time.

The tactic he arranged today was for David Robinson to follow Divac to defend, and then Duncan to guard the inside. This plan was very successful. The Kings players did not use Robinson as a breakthrough because of the former reputation of the "Admiral" , Robinson, who was sleepy and physically exhausted, was well protected.

Unexpectedly, this was revealed by the rookie.

Whether it's luck or strength, Robinson really can't continue playing. This is just an ordinary regular season. Why should he take his own general into it?
Since it is impossible to beat the Kings who lost Webber in the first quarter and make them lose their fighting spirit, it would not be a wise choice to meet the Kings at home.

Popovich has long made up his mind to replace Robinson, but he cannot do it now. He will have to wait until Robinson realizes the problem and then replace him, then he will not have the slightest complaint.

It is said that Popovich will lead the team and train new players. In fact, Popovich has a good grasp of the players' psychology and is very self-aware. This is the NBA, not the NCAA. Front.

Whether it is David Robinson, Tim Duncan, or later Parker and Ginobili, Popovich can control them well, which is inseparable from his coaching philosophy.

Even if there was a conflict with Leonard, the management refused to give a big contract. Popovich failed to be a lobbyist, so it can only be regarded as a conflict between the Spurs and Leonard.

There is no way, San Antonio is a small city, and the owner is a tractor seller with limited financial resources. To retain players and the whole team is united, the only way to maintain the strength to compete for the championship is to rely on Popovich to patch things up.

In stark contrast to Popovich is his teacher Larry Brown. He really regards himself as the protagonist. He wins because of his good command, and loses because of the player Xia Ji. They turned against each other, and later fell out with the Detroit Five Tigers.

Back on the court, after Bibby confirmed that Robinson was indeed soft-footed in this game, the Kings began to double-team Duncan frantically. Although Lu Yuanzhi worked hard, it seemed that Duncan would break through the next moment, but his teammates could always Come here in time to help him relieve the stress.

Another goal was defended, and the Kings attacked. It was still the familiar three people pulling the bottom line, and it was still the familiar Bibby military training Robinson. Robinson didn't even raise his hand for a one-step jumper from inside the three-point line, allowing Bibby to score easily.

"beep--"

Popovich finally called a timeout, subbed Robinson near the end of the first quarter, and never played him again.

At this time, Popovich didn't dare to go too far, and was a bit secretive. When he wins another championship and finds out the bottom line of the league, the showmanship at that time will be amazing, like Robinson's situation , A few years later, he will be sent directly to the injured list, and then sent back to San Antonio to recuperate.

Replacing David Robinson seemed to be a signal that Popovich had given up on this game, and then replaced a large number of substitutes and young players, making it clear that he did not want to fight the Kings in Sacramento.

Lu Yuanzhi gained a lot of playing time in the second quarter because of his contribution to defending Duncan. At this time, the game had already developed in the direction of losing the game. The score reached 30:42, and the Kings led by 12 points.

Without David Robinson, there would be no twin towers that the Spurs are proud of, and all the inside defensive pressure is on Duncan alone.

But Duncan not only withstood the pressure, but also defended the Spurs inside solidly. Fortunately, the Kings had strong outside shooters. Stojakovic, Christie, Turkoglu, Bibby and Bobby Jackson took turns to shoot from the outside. The hit opened the score.

Lu Yuanzhi didn't feel very happy. He has been taught by Duncan since he played today, and he was blocked for not scoring a point. However, he has no outside ability, so he can only go inside if he wants to score.

No, I have to find a way to fuck Duncan once, otherwise I will be too aggrieved.

Lu Yuanzhi, who had made up his mind, kept observing opportunities on the court. After a few rounds, the opportunity finally appeared.

Duncan was entangled with Divac in the interior and had his back to Lu Yuanzhi. Lu Yuanzhi had already thrown away the defender and rushed into the interior. Bibby's pass also put the ball in his hands just right.

good chance!
Doesn't this take the opportunity to give Duncan a buckle?
Lu Yuanzhi exerted strength on his legs and flew into the air quickly. His long arms were fully stretched, and he was about to throw a dunk on Duncan's head.

After being reminded by his teammates, Duncan also knew that there was a situation behind him, so he quickly turned around and saw Lu Yuanzhi take off, without any fear, he also jumped to block the shot.

The two had physical contact in the air. Lu Yuanzhi felt a majestic force coming from him again. His body began to lose control and he almost couldn't catch the ball.

Ah, this is the end of the 30-year confrontation, how does it feel when you are on the league's top insider?

Just when Lu Yuanzhi was trying to control his body and wanted to dunk the ball in, Duncan's long arms came before his eyes.

Lu Yuanzhi has a wingspan of 2 meters, which is considered to be an outstanding long arm, but is Duncan worse?Duncan's wingspan is 28 meters, combined with his height of 2 meters, and his standing reach is 30 meters. This is a giant who can stand in place!

"Snapped!"

Duncan's big hand was still on the basketball. Lu Yuanzhi's center of gravity had long been unstable, and he couldn't wrestle with Duncan at all. The ball was shot directly out of the sideline.

Grass!
This sneak attack was unsuccessful?Is there any reason?

"Rookie, you are very brave!" Duncan smiled evilly and was about to touch Lu Yuanzhi's head.

Seeing that Divac was nearby, Lu Yuanzhi blocked Duncan's hand, and then said: "Tim, in China, touching other people's heads is a very impolite behavior. Please respect our customs."

Duncan froze for a moment, is there such a custom?
At this time, Battle had not gone to the Spurs, and Duncan had no way to find anyone to verify it, but he had a good temper. Since Lu Yuanzhi sincerely proposed it, it was necessary to respect the customs, so he fist-bumped with Lu Yuanzhi instead.

Divac next to him was thoughtful, oh, so there is still this custom, then I will hug my shoulders instead.

Plan pass!
 Only now will the new writers know that what they want now is to follow up, follow up, or follow up!

  Dear brothers, if you think the book is still enough to read, please save it and keep reading it. Don’t keep it, or something will happen if you keep it.

  Thank you all!
