Chapter 1339 The Stone Buddha is no longer there, sweeping away

Strike it!

The Spurs commentator also said "Oh~" with some regret.

But a ball is nothing, even Jordan Kobe Nowitzki and other mid-range shooting masters, it is impossible to guarantee all the balls.Therefore, the Spurs quickly retreated.Tang Qian found an opportunity to cut the ball without the ball, and the left flank went down. The Spurs couldn't follow up in time, and Rondo's pass was in place in time.

Danny Green wanted to block it and let Tang Qian miss the ball, but unfortunately... No. 29 was forced to fly with one hand!

The person was knocked far away in the air, and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

This time the Spurs gave the Spurs a face and did not whistle or add a penalty.Tang Qian glanced at Danny Green, turned around and left without saying anything.But Danny Green himself felt the meaning of that look.That look means... no meaning!To put it bluntly, Tang Qian had nothing to say to him about scoring this goal.

As if, of course, it should be so.What would you say to such a thing?Every time you drink water, eat, walk and dress, do you feel anything?What more bullshit will you say?
Danny Green is a little annoyed, but the defensive round is over, so we can only talk about it later.

Sure enough, the Spurs still can't get any opportunities from the outside. The Lakers' defensive focus is here, so they won't let them easily find opportunities.Therefore, it is still only possible to give insiders, and the routine is exactly the same as before.It was given to Aldridge again, and then Aldridge quickly gave it to Duncan on the other side.

Duncan's 19-foot shot, shot, basketball...when~
Not in.

Tang Qian of the Lakers got the rebound and then gave it to Rondo. The Lakers played slowly and had no chance after running continuously, and then gave it to Butler. Butler made a strong three-pointer and made a hit!Don't look at it like this, in fact, Butler is already the most inaccurate outside line of the Lakers tonight.Therefore, if the Spurs do not change their defense, or make no achievements on the offensive end, it is estimated that they will be completely pulled away tonight.Popovich looked at the number 20 who had not let him down for nearly 21 years off the court, and did not call a timeout.

Because the current situation is that if a timeout is called, it is probably still the same, there is no difference.

Open shot, the opportunity has come up, what else do you want?Facing a strong defensive team like the Lakers, it is actually very rare to have such an open opportunity.what?Want to give up?impossible.

This is the playoffs.

So... Tim, it's up to you.

Popovich said silently in his heart.

Duncan also concentrated, he was ready for the ball, he caught the ball and shot it!
Sean Elliott, the home commentator of the Spurs, was about to call out Duncan's name, but the "dang" sound of the basketball made his call be stuck in his throat.Duncan, 3 for 0 shots.This was a rare thing in the past.The Lakers also seized the opportunity, Tang Qian made a bold move, and finally caused a foul this time, making 2 of 1 free throws from the free throw line.

On the defensive end, the Lakers still let go of Duncan of the Spurs, which is also a common practice in the NBA.When someone on offense gets hot, they keep feeding him the ball.When a person on the defensive end feels bad, he will keep "letting" him take shots.Don't talk about Duncan, James is such a frequent visitor, so since Duncan made 3 of 0 shots, the Lakers will continue to play.

Tang Qian had no intention of passing this time, and Aldridge was stuck as soon as he came up.The ball didn't pass through Aldridge's hands, and went directly to Tim Duncan on the other side.Duncan adjusted the ball a little bit, and as soon as he took the shot...the arc was deflected, this is, wait, this is... a rebound shot!This is a rebound shot that Duncan rarely appears now!

Although when it comes to Duncan, one of the labels is rebounding and shooting, but this skill has gradually faded out of Duncan's arsenal.It can be said that less and less is used now.It suddenly appeared today, and it seems that Duncan was also "forced" to the limit by his performance.

He, too, wants, desperately, hopes to score this goal.

He is one of the most stable historical super giants in the playoffs.No one dares to say a word about this.

He himself never thought that he would be "unstable".

Stone Buddha Duncan is as stable as a mountain. He probably hasn't doubted this since he was in high school.Until last year, he was the "No. 21 rookie" who could easily transform at critical moments.Therefore, when the team needs him now, he habitually stands up.

Just like the previous 18 years, the ball was shot and then waited for the result.

On most nights of Duncan's career, this result is good, and his winning percentage has already explained everything.It's just that, at the age of 40, his ball and his board finally became unstable. "Pa~bang~" The basketball bounced off the rim.No entry!
When Duncan saw that the ball was not scored, he was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed a little unbelievable.

Doesn't this look very similar to the season when Garnett completely aged?I, Kevin Garnett, unexpectedly, can't guard against this kind of shit ball?Can't keep up with this kind of shit speed?How can this be?

Is there really no oil in my fuel tank?

The Spurs surrounded the ball well, and Tang Qian made a mistake, which gave the Spurs a breather.how to spell?Still Duncan!

Duncan made another shot, hit the board, and missed again!

The Lakers made a long two-point shot near the top arc of the outside line and made a hit.

Duncan?How could Duncan be labeled like this?Did he still have the strength of an All-Star insider in last year's playoffs?So, how could it be like this?impossible!The voices cheering for Duncan suddenly erupted in the Spurs' home court. There were all kinds of voices, but they were all cheering for the 40-year-old man.

Duncan, the absolute core of the Holy City, the absolute soul of the team, the number one PF in NBA history, he deserves all of this.

The ball was still given to Duncan, not only is Duncan the soul of the team, but also the ball, indeed Duncan is the most empty.

If he can't make the shot, the Lakers' defense against the remaining four will undoubtedly be more convenient and tight.

Duncan, shot, still missed~
The Lakers played a corner to attract, and then Rondo scored Tang Qian suddenly. Tang Qian made a foul and made 2 of 2 free throws.

The Spurs' offense is still Duncan.After Duncan got the ball, he didn't shoot directly, but wanted to get closer to the basket and then shot. The idea was right, but unfortunately... because of his movement and proximity to the basket, he was thrown by the Lakers No. 29 when he shot. After killing the block, the basketball was thrown into the air.Flying out of the three-point line, Rondo rushed out immediately, swiped a backcourt rebound data and then led the rest of the Lakers to launch a defensive counterattack.Now the Lakers, except for Tang Qian, can be used to play outside, so this wave ended directly with Covington catching the ball and dunking with one hand.

Duncan didn't even return to the defense for the ball. He stood there, a little dazed, with an even more surprised expression on his face than before.

Even Duncan couldn't control the astonishment and... panic in his heart now.

He opened his fuel tank cap, looked down, and this time it seemed to be really...

Then he heard a timeout on the Spurs side, and he shot 6 or 7 times, all open, but they all... missed.

He looked back at Popovich, as if turning back time, to the time when he first came to the NBA.Many people may not know that when Duncan made his first shot in the NBA Summer League, he was slapped by a player who was not well-known later.Then Popovich satirized Duncan: You are awesome, Duncan, we will definitely be awesome this season if we choose you.

Duncan was young and energetic at the time, so he bumped back and said in a choked voice: I told you, old man, don't choose me, you will regret it if you choose me, and you will screw everything up.

This is the first official exchange between him and Popovich in the NBA.

Then came the 19-year sweet period, which has always been "favorite and crooked".

This time, he looked over, and Popovich was looking at him, neither of them speaking.

I don't know how long it took, but Duncan suddenly became the "Mr. Unreliable" on the offensive and defensive ends.You must know that this was absolutely unimaginable before.Some people say that, 21% will be laughed out of their teeth.But this season, that's what happened.The guy who the outside world dubbed the "No. [-] rookie".It seems to be getting old all of a sudden.There is no more oil.

Even if Popovich could see that this guy kept trying to squeeze his fuel tank, it didn't help.

When did the Spurs decline? Is the "Double Virtue Era" really a guarantee for the next 20 years?Popovich suddenly felt that he seemed to have thought of certain issues too simply.Duncan has always been able to "show off his power" at will, which seems to be the most indispensable condition for the team all the time.

Some quick-witted reporters from the outside world have already begun to write articles. For example, Kate Marin, a famous reporter from TNT, wrote on his laptop in advance: The Spurs were actually known a few years ago.A long time ago, a team knew how to deal with the Spurs who had fallen from super giants.But no one has been able to do it.Ball transmission and smooth tactics, which became the magic weapon for this Spurs team in the following years. In 2014, this team took true team basketball to the top.At that time, basically everyone knew what to do.But it just can't be done.Their conduction and tactics are too strong, and they have reached a level that is almost unparalleled in the world.There is no real strong star, an aging core combination, and a bunch of seemingly ordinary role replacements.But they were almost invincible back then.If it weren't for the Lakers staged that shocking reversal.I believe 99%, the championship will belong to them.

In 2016, the Spurs are still the same Spurs, and their style of play has not changed much from 2 years ago. However, they have lost their unparalleled conduction and unparalleled tactical capabilities.I thought that the introduction of Aldridge and the growth of Leonard would be enough to offset the decline in the former, but now it seems that this is not the case.The Spurs' isolation capital is far from offsetting what they are losing.I think if the Spurs can't solve this problem well, the flash of the double virtue era may not be as bright as the fans of the Holy City imagined.

By the way, the Spurs' playoff run this year is over.

They'll have a whole summer to think about it.

……

After the timeout of the Spurs, Popovich began to adopt aggressive tactics in order to narrow the score difference. He basically gave up offensive rebounds from the front, and mainly returned to the defensive position to become the current situation... A large number of players cut in and rushed wildly Offensive rebounds.The meaning of this is obvious, it is to fight hard to see if we can grab some more offensive opportunities.

The defensive end still suppresses the low post and the inside line, and helps Duncan. Don't let the tragedy of the previous two games repeat itself, and let the Lakers take away the game with a wave of personal ability.But to do this, the premise is that the Lakers' outside feel is not very good. Otherwise, it is...

He was shot into a scarecrow with thousands of arrows piercing his heart.

The Lakers replaced almost all of their main players within a few minutes of the third quarter, leaving only Rondo on the field to control the field.At this time, the score difference between the Lakers and the Spurs has reached 37 points.The game lost its suspense early on.

Since Duncan was emptied continuously and hit the iron continuously, the game is actually over.

The Lakers scored 110 points, which is also the highest score for the Lakers in this year's playoffs.Ariza and Covington scored the most points, both of whom scored 19 points tonight.Because Tang Qian played too little time, less than 20 minutes, he only scored 14 points, 12 rebounds, 3 blocks and 5 assists.Although he didn't play very well tonight from the statistics, Tang Qian expressed that he was very happy because the team easily killed the opponent.

I thought it would be a hard-fought match, but unexpectedly, it came to an end so easily.

The fans of the Holy City also looked blank, as if they couldn't believe that this crucial third game was lost so happily.Or the suspense was basically lost in the first half.It's really hard to accept.But sports competition, you have to accept it if you don’t accept it, this is the fact.

Tang Qian looked at Duncan. He wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he held back and said it after the opponent was completely eliminated.

The Lakers 110-90, with a 20-point advantage and a maximum difference of 37 points, won the third game of the series.

Rewritten the big score to 3-0.

Although the opponent has not been eliminated in theory, but in fact, the dust has settled.

It's nothing more than a question of how many games the Spurs can delay.

Or... can't win a game.

Completely defeated in the Western Conference semifinals.

Some people may not have noticed that after the sound of the end of the game, the number 21 of the Spurs did not stand up from the bench for a long time.He looked up at the big screen above his head, without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

Duncan, 40.

God knows, will the next game be the last game of his career, the last 48 minutes?
Nobody knows.He himself may not know it now.
