Chapter 714

Because of Duncan's activity after playing, the Spurs did not continue to be suppressed, and they abruptly withstood the Grizzlies' offense.

Although the team is currently behind, no one thinks it is a big problem.

After all, the Spurs, although they have been habitual to settle battles in three quarters this year and beat their opponents one after another, don't forget that their traditional style of play is to silently lag behind their opponents in the first three quarters, but not too far behind, and then In the fourth quarter, a big overtake was achieved in one fell swoop!

Now, the Grizzlies just pushed the Spurs back to the traditional winning mode.

The Grizzlies called a timeout, and they are now leading by 6 points. This is not an insurance score, and the Spurs' scorers can easily recover this point difference.

The Spurs returned to the bench and all replenished water. The Grizzlies played very well today. They felt good. Many times the Spurs did not lose their position defensively, but the Grizzlies still played against the defense. Enter.

But the Spurs didn't care too much about this situation. Who doesn't eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? The Grizzlies are usually not very accurate, and it's normal to be accurate once in a while, and the Spurs don't believe that the Grizzlies can always maintain such a high hit rate Rate.

"Manu, Danny, Tracy ready to go, Chin, Kawhi and Hassan down for a break."

Popovich started to make substitutions. Since the Grizzlies are so strong today, he has to accompany them for two moves. Whiteside, Leonard and Qin Yan have played for a long time. They should be allowed to Take a break.

The timeout ended and the Spurs returned to the field. Their lineup became GDP plus McGrady and Green. This is a rare lineup this season.

The Grizzlies also changed their lineup. Both the black and white bears and Tony Allen went down to rest. Koufus came up to play center, and then Carter and Miller also came up. Prince went to top power forward.

The lineups of the two teams are surprisingly similar. They are all big and four small, and the four small are all people with good outside firepower. The only difference is that Duncan is all-around offensive and defensive, and Koufos is just a defensive blue-collar.

McGrady and Carter embraced, and the audience fell silent. Even the referee gave them a little time. After all, after waiting for so many years, they finally had the moment to meet on this big stage.

From the East to the West, no one would have imagined that the playoff matchup between these two would take such a long time and span such a long distance.

Carter is no longer a "half-human, half-god", and McGrady is only half-successful at the peak. When we meet again, looking at their beards and faces that have begun to vicissitudes, this pair of gifted cousins ​​is relatively speechless. They are no longer young, and this league no longer belongs to them.

Now, neither of them is the main force of their respective teams, and they can only play the role of a veteran in the team. However, McGrady is lucky. He is attacking for the second championship ring in his career, while Carter is still working hard for the first championship in his career. with.

This is a late duel. Two super scorers who were once regarded as the future of the league finally met on the stage of the conference finals as they wished at the end of their careers!

"Brother, if you hadn't left, wouldn't we have been bored with the stage of the regional finals?"

"It's a pity that there are not so many ifs, otherwise, I am looking forward to cooperating with you, cousin."

"I won't let you go, I will fight for the first ring by myself."

"Sorry about that, my goal is to retire with two rings."

"come on!"

"You too!"

McGrady and Carter separated in the applause of the fans. The encouragement between each other has been finished, and the next step is a real duel!

"Di-"

The referee blows his whistle, formally signaling the game to continue!
As expected, the Rockets let Tracy McGrady control the ball, and Parker began to run without the ball. To be honest, Parker also likes this style of play, especially since he is the youngest in GDP and has the strongest desire to score among the three. It would be great to get a little more points.

McGrady took possession of the ball. Unexpectedly, it was not Carter but Pulis who defended him. This disappointed the fans at the scene and in front of the TV, especially the fans of McGrady and Carter, who were ready to scold their mothers.

MMP, we have been waiting for so many years, and finally we have a duel between these cousins ​​in such a big scene. Why did you Prince come out and make trouble?The current script is not that you, an old Piston general, are single-handedly avenging the Spurs, but a battle between brothers. Did you get the wrong script?Get down now, get down!

The fans at the scene began to boo Prince. After hearing this sound, the little prince was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly understood.

Damn, I accidentally lay down the gun.

McGrady looked at Prince. To be honest, there has always been a grudge between him and Prince. Although the accounts were settled once during the regular season, it is now the Western Conference finals. Lins, it's hard for McGrady not to recall the scene of the playoffs.

"Hey, you heard the booing, right? Leave now, my opponent today is not you."

Although he still wanted to abuse Prince and let it go completely, McGrady still controlled his emotions. Today's main target is his cousin, this guy should wait until next time to clean up.

"Hehe." Prince smiled helplessly. "You are a power forward now, and so am I. Your opponent is me."

In fact, Prince does not want to destroy the duel between their brothers under the pressure of so many fans, but the problem is that it is actually very problematic to hand McGrady to Carter for defense.

Among the four shooting guards at the time, although Iverson was short, he was the king of steals and had a tough defense; McGrady started training as a defensive player when he entered the league, but later became the core of the team and focused more on offense (It is also related to the inability of the body to balance offense and defense after the injury); not to mention Kobe, he has always targeted Jordan (the leader has been defending for many years at the same time), and his defensive ability is also very good.

However, only Carter is a bit different. Carter was regarded as the core of the team as soon as he entered the league.

However, under these auras of Carter, there is a problem that has been covered up, that is, Carter's defense has always been average.

When opponents face Carter, they are often frightened by his fame, and then watch Carter easily score 20+30+, all kinds of flying, all kinds of showing off skills.

But when the game is over, regardless of winning or losing, just look at the data sheet, and you will be surprised to find that the person Carter is defending is often not bad in this game.

No matter how many points Carter gets, he can basically get the points back from Carter in the end, so Carter's deterrence has always been the weakest of the "Big Four". After all, if you only rely on "slam dunks", you can't kill the game. !

Although the current old Carter's defense is much better than before, Prince is not at ease letting him directly defend McGrady, so Prince is scouting for Carter!

But obviously McGrady has no interest in entangled with Prince. Since he is not in the right position when attacking, then see you when defending.

McGrady flicked his hand and passed the ball to Duncan under the basket through two people. Duncan took advantage of the opportunity and dunked with one hand!
Anyway, they have already joined forces, so are you afraid that there will be no chance to match up?
