Chapter 192

"here we go!"

Barkley, who was joking with Kenny Smith because of the dull environment of the commentary, looked serious. Following his words, everyone's attention was on the game. Watching Duncan beat Stoudemire to jump the ball, the Spurs' Under Parker's command, the players began to settle in an orderly manner. Everyone's expression was a little serious. The highlight of this year finally came.

Gao Tian was defending against Bruce Bowen. Looking at the poor guy in front of him who had been staring at him fiercely, Gao Tian pursed his lips, and suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, and asked with concern in a very gentle tone. Said: "Bruce, have you been going to nightclubs recently?"

……

What the hell is going to a nightclub!

Bruce looked at this hypocritical Chinese man in front of him, and his teeth were itchy with hatred. During countless nights in the hospital, he dreamed of the face of this cruel and ruthless Chinese man. He would never forget that kick in his life, that was right The greatest harm a man can do.

Bowen remembered what Popovich had told him before the game and couldn't help but snorted coldly. He gave Gao Tian a vicious look, ignored Gao Tian's verbal harassment, and continued to entangle Gao Tian in the bottom corner. .

Looking at Bo Wen who had regained his composure, Gao Tian didn't tease him anymore. It's hard for an old player like Bo Wen to be irritated by a rookie like him. Talking too much will affect his mood and state , In the arena, the best way to win the game is to show real strength. Everything else is heresy, which may be useful, but it will not be on the real stage after all.

When Gao Tian was bullying Bowen, Parker dribbled the ball at the top of the arc to observe the position of the sun, and it turned out to be exactly as Popovich predicted. He and Dior occupy the left and right sides of the penalty area, stuck Duncan and Elson, Lagabel stared at Finley from the outside, and Nash in front of his eyes, waited for a few seconds, watching Duncan quickly move from the penalty area to the high position , Parker knew the tactics had begun.

With the help of Duncan's solid cover, Parker directly threw away Nash. Facing Dior's defense, Parker didn't hesitate. Passing Dior, pretending to layup to seduce Stoudemire, Parker smiled slightly, and passed the ball directly behind his head without looking at anyone. He knew that Duncan was just in his passing position at this time!

This is their tacit understanding.

Popovich, who was standing on the sidelines, looked indifferently at Duncan who just received the ball. All of this was in his plan. The Suns' interior defense was too weak, so it was impossible for the Suns to allow Duncan and Parker to pick and roll. Nash squeezed through the screen to chase Parker, which was tantamount to watching Parker score a layup, and as long as the Suns chose to let Diaw switch to Parker, then Parker would be easy to play against Diaw whether he played by himself or passed the ball.

Amidst the exclamation of the Sun fans, Duncan dunked after the opening. Suddenly, a big hand hit the ball directly when Duncan just picked it up. Although Duncan held it tightly, the ball was still taken from Duncan. Seeing Nash's unattended layup in the frontcourt, Popovich frowned slightly.

Diaw was blocked by the Spurs center Elson, Stoudemire had just landed and was too late to make a move, Nash and Lagabel were far away from the three-point line, Popovich touched his chin, and asked Finley, who had completely missed the outside line, to participate In the help defense inside?

interesting.

Popovich didn't say anything about the Spurs' mistake this time. He turned his head and glanced at D'Antoni, who also had an elusive expression on his left, and made a gesture to signal the players to continue playing as planned.

Another high pick-and-roll between Duncan and Parker!

Gao Tian frowned, seeing that Dior, who had been prepared for a long time, was swept clean by the fast-moving "French sports car" Parker, and then succeeded in a layup against Stoudemire's block. This is experience!

Knowing that Stoudemire, who was thrown away just now, did not dare to take off easily, Parker just took the ball and hit it instead of passing the ball, because at this time he himself was the best chance, sighed in his heart, looked at Nash Quickly dribbling the ball, Gao Tian returned to the frontcourt to participate in the attack.

D'Antoni's teammates didn't seem to care about the Sun's failed defense just now. Since Stotts tried his best and couldn't create an effective and reliable defensive system for the Suns in a short period of time, D'Antoni almost completely gave up defense. It doesn't matter if you score, as long as you can score or even score more than your opponent, then the Suns will win.

Watching Gao Tian's continuous counterruns completely mess up the Spurs' defensive formation, Duncan was also transferred to the corner position, and the ball in Gao Tian's hand was passed directly to Stoudemire, who was almost unattended inside. The inside line Elson was directly hit by the brutal Stoudemire, and everyone in the Spurs watched Stoudemire complete a dunk on his head. This passionate ball directly ignited the American West Arena, watching All the fans of the domineering Stoudemire are cheering.

D'Antoni was a little proud. This was a tactic he had planned a long time ago. After Stoudemire ran out to cover Gao Tian, ​​Duncan would never let Gao Tian appear in a situation where there was almost no defense one meter in front of him. At this time, Bowen had no time to follow him. Duncan switched, even if he had time to stop Stoudemire who was rushing up by himself, it was undoubtedly a dream. Looking at Popovich from the corner of his eye, D'Antoni couldn't help being a little surprised. It stands to reason that the Spurs opened the game In the case of two mistakes, Popovich should be angry, but I didn't expect that Popovich now looks like a Zen master Phil Jackson, and everything is under control.

He hates this the most!

"It can be seen that the Suns have focused on the Spurs' defense. All the actions of the Suns are to mobilize the Spurs' inside defense. Now the situation on the field looks a bit chaotic."

There was a hint of doubt in Kenny Smith's tone, because in his opinion, the current Spurs are a bit abnormal, and this is not the real Spurs in his eyes.

"The Suns' offensive firepower is very fierce, especially Gao Tian's running position is very attractive. The entire Spurs' defensive system has problems because of him alone!"

Compared with Kenny Smith who thinks calmly, what Barkley said is undoubtedly more loved by the audience. It is true. In the eyes of everyone, the Spurs' defense is a mess. Watching one after another being confused by Gao Tian's running position Some fans couldn't help but wonder, is this really one of the best and most stable defensive teams in the NBA?

Not to mention that the Spurs players played very depressed in the first quarter, even the Suns players were extremely surprised. All the defensive players rushed to Gao Tian, ​​leaving too many vacancies for them, so in the first quarter Although Gao Tian only scored two points and had no assists, his teammates felt extremely hot today. Under the cover of Gao Tian, ​​they scored 30 points together, while the Spurs only scored 20 points at the end of the first quarter. Points, which makes D'Antoni a little strange.
