Chapter 32 Attack and Defense Third Wave

Qin Yan retreated to his own half, and Parker patted his ass:
"You did a good job, boy, was that imitation of T-MAC just now?"

Qin Yan looked very modest, "No, no, to be precise, the one-handed ball is imitating T-MAC, but the one in the air is imitating Xiandao."

Parker was a little confused, "Xiandao, who is that?"

Qin Yan looked helpless, "It's an animation character, I guess you don't even know it."

It's no wonder, after all, Parker, a Frenchman, doesn't know "Slam Dunk" is normal.

But according to Parker's age, he should have seen it, he really didn't have a childhood.

At the transition of offense and defense, Qin Yan faced Gordon again. Gordon had no choice but to call for pick-and-rolls. Through continuous pick-and-rolls, he finally got rid of Qin Yan, and then hit a mid-range shot.

The following first quarter was very normal. The Spurs continued to score with the cooperation of the team. On the contrary, the Hornets also paid too much attention to singles.It may also be because the team's running-in was not done well. The Hornets also tried to cooperate with the team, but the effect was not good, and they made several mistakes to make the Spurs fight back.

Although the Spurs also have three new starters, Leonard and Splitter have both been with the Spurs for a year and are familiar with tactics.

And Qin Yan is smart and can understand Popovich's tactics well, so there is no big problem in cooperating.In addition, Duncan, the core of the Spurs, is still in the starting lineup, and he stabilizes the morale of the army.In this way, although the Spurs' starting lineup has changed a lot, the team's cooperation is still quite stable, and there are not too many mistakes.

After the first quarter, the score was 20:28, and the Spurs entered the second quarter with an 8-point lead.

Qin Yan and others were replaced. Popovich was really generous today. He went up and down and changed a lineup directly.

Bonner, Diaw, Green, Ginobili and Mills, the Spurs' second team will be the mainstay in the second quarter, not only to score, but also to hold the lead and prevent the opponent from counterattacking.

The Hornets are full of young people. Although they also changed players, they did not have such a huge rotation like Popovich. They only changed two people, Mason and Lopez, and let Mason top the shooting guard, and Gordon withdrew to play. Point guard, then Davis back at power forward, with Robin Lopez at center.

It can be seen that the lineup of the Hornets is completely against the Spurs' starting lineup, but even if the Spurs changed at the beginning of the second quarter, the Hornets' change of formation feels useless.

Of course, the Spurs' bench lineup is a bit weak defensively, especially since there are no big and tall players inside, they are easy to be blown up.Fortunately, Davis on the opposite side is a rookie, and Lopez's offensive power is limited. Although Bonner and Dior are relatively short and old, they can persist with the addition of game experience, so they won't be beaten too badly.

The Spurs' bench lineup is strong because of its high offensive ability. Although Manu looks old, his weird snake-shaped breakthrough is still unstoppable in the league.

The Hornets are not a strong defensive team. Mason, who was replaced as a shooting guard, is a brainless man. There is nothing but muscles and jumping. Ginobili doesn't need to spend much effort to handle him. The shock of the breakthrough let everyone know that not only the "Stone Buddha" and "Sports Car" can still fight, but the "Demon Sword" is still not rusted, and it is still so deadly when it is unsheathed. "One Sword Lights Nineteen States" .

As for Danny Green, who is dubbed "Huang Ama", it is still possible to make a three-pointer in this game. When all the country is gone, it is difficult for the Spurs to lose.

Although Davis and Lopez used their height to overwhelm the Spurs inside, they made various tip-ups, blocks, and blocks.But the Spurs responded with an eye for an eye, an eye for an eye. If you score two points, I will return two points. If you score three points, I will return a three-pointer. The two sides fought against each other for a while.

However, the Spurs' substitutes were really strong, and they fought most of the Hornets' main players for more than half a quarter. When Qin Yan and others played again, the Hornets had to withdraw their main players to rest. There was no way, they were too tired.

Without restraint and because of the rotation to ensure physical strength, the main players of the Spurs are fierce against the Hornets bench. They kill in the dark, and they are omnipotent with three-point breakthroughs and assists. Qin Yan has staged it many times. Fast-break dunks, and every time the dunk is finished, he has to roar passionately.

It is said that such a passionate person should not belong to the Spurs, but, for some reason, although Qin Yan is very passionate, the Spurs are generally very calm, which seems to be a bit contradictory.But Qin Yan was able to integrate into the Spurs team very well, probably because everyone on this team is actually a comedian, but his main business was delayed by basketball.

Later someone said that Qin Yan is the anger of the Spurs, and the Spurs are like the sea, tolerant of everything, and Qin Yan is that submarine volcano, once it erupts, it will be very powerful!

In this way, Popovich abused the Hornets' substitutes for half a quarter with a group of main players. Considering the physical condition of the main players, the Hornets did not dare to let the starters play at the end of the second quarter, and could only watch helplessly. He was pushed to the ground and beaten violently.

At halftime, 42:55, the Spurs have led by 13 points!If they continue to play like this, the Spurs will break [-] in the first game of the new season.

During the intermission, Davis was sullen in the locker room alone. He failed to suppress the opposing inside line in the first half. Only when he faced two short substitutes could he feel elated, but what's the use of that?The team is still losing, and the two points hard-earned inside are not as high as the score of a random three-pointer shot on the spot.

So, in the second half, we must defend the Spurs' outside line, compare "internal strength" with the Spurs, and overwhelm the Spurs inside!

The head coach of the Hornets gave everyone a death order to strangle the Spurs' perimeter at all costs, especially that Qin Yan!He used to have almost no mid-range shots in the NCAA. "Put someone in and force him to make a mid-range shot!" The Hornets coach will tell everyone before they go on the court.

It can be seen that the head coach of the Hornets is indeed not a waste. He analyzed very well. If he wants to win the Spurs, he must win inside.The way of speaking is also good, but every time he guides, he is always a beat slower than others.Maybe it's because Popovich is so monstrous. After all, based on wins, there are only 8 players in the history of coaches in the league who can win more games than Popovich!
Moreover, the coach of the Hornets has an important problem, that is, they don't look at the problem with a developmental perspective.

The Qin Yan in his impression was still the same Qin Yan in the NCAA finals, without any change, so he shouted to the players to guard against three-pointers and forced Qin Yan to make a mid-range shot.

However, who would have thought that Qin Yan now has mid-range shooting ability in his arsenal, and everything within the three-point line is already within Qin Yan's attack range.If Qin Yan is really allowed to hit the middle distance with a high shot, then it is estimated that the Hornets will be able to surrender in three quarters.

Not much to say, returning from halftime, the two sides exchanged venues, and the Hornets had the ball.

However, the Hornets' opening lineup in the second half was a bit strange, with Lopez at center, Davis at power forward, Anderson at small forward, Aminu at shooting guard, and Gordon at point guard.

To be honest, this lineup is not bad. The focus is on height. It seems that the Hornets really want to work hard inside. This lineup has almost all the big men available in the team.

"Di—" At the beginning of the second half, Gordon dribbled the ball. He didn't dribble too much. He ran two steps, raised his big hand, and passed the ball directly to Davis who was waiting near the center line.

Um?What is this?Davis holds the ball?Let him play point guard?Only Lopez and Anderson are left inside?
The Spurs players were a little puzzled by this situation. Qin Yan remembered now that Davis was originally a point guard, but because he grew taller, he switched to power forward and center.

If he plays point guard... Qin Yan suddenly realized something, and shouted in his heart that something was wrong!

That does not work!Parker must not be able to guard against him!The difference is a full 20 cm in height!And you can't switch defenses with Duncan, because if Duncan goes outside, his movement speed will be even slower.

When Qin Yan was thinking about how to break this trick, Davis successfully used the time when the Spurs were in a daze, and easily pushed Parker to the free throw line, and made a steady mid-range shot.

"Wow, it's amazing, Davis actually played point guard?" Kenny Smith was taken aback. The 208cm point guard is also the tallest in NBA history (of course, later Antetokounmpo successfully broke the record). The Spurs are probably going to have a headache.

In the third wave of offense and defense, the Hornets will counterattack!
