best shooting guard

Chapter 956
"Locomotive" Aldridge and the Spurs' "heavy tank" Tucker are on the bar, and in general, the two almost cancel each other out.

Although Aldridge can use his height to score some mid-range shots, his efficiency is not particularly high, and the key is that this kind of intermittent mid-range shots can't kill people!
As for Tucker, although his main scoring method is the fixed-point three-pointer ambushed in the bottom corner, which requires the support of his teammates to perform perfectly, but Tucker is very good in defensive methods such as rebounds, steals, and blocks. , especially because he often blocks two people on the opposite side alone, allowing Whiteside to have easier rebounding space.

It can be said that Tucker has become the most useful of the Spurs' bench players without knowing it!
The state of the Spurs' main players today is mediocre, because Parker went down early, and Qin Yan was put in the point guard position by Popovich.

To be honest, playing point guard is not Qin Yan's strong point. Although he has good vision and everything, Qin Yan has not specially practiced ball handling. It doesn't mean that Qin Yan is a passing master.

In addition, Lillard is very fierce today. Although he said that his body was crushed by Qin Yan, Lillard was very unwilling to admit defeat. All kinds of harassment made it impossible for Qin Yan to shoot well.

And Leonard seems to be in a bad state today. Except for the dunk, he hit all three shots from the outside, and he can only walk in the middle distance to try to find opportunities.

And Duncan had already sat down with Parker, and only Whiteside performed well today in the starting lineup.

When the performance of the starters is not good, the Spurs' bench players will stand up.

The Blazers dribbled out of bounds, giving both sides a dead ball opportunity.

Popovich waved his hand and changed players. Except for Tucker, everyone came down to rest.

The Blazers also made substitutions, and their main force has been playing for a long time today.

The current lineup of the Spurs is a pure substitute. The center is Jokic, the power forward Tucker, the small forward Green, the shooting guard Ginobili, and the point guard Mills.

Lillard went down to the Trail Blazers, CJ McCollum came up to drive the team, and at the same time they had two big men inside, Kaman and Lopez Jr. put up a "twin tower" formation, and then the small forward and the shooting guard It's Afflalo and Alonzo Chi.

Hmm... I have to say that there are not many people on the Blazers' bench, and the wave of people who came up here basically made up the numbers.

For the Spurs, Manu Ginobili has the ball, and Mills is mainly preparing to make a three-pointer against CJ.

Facing Alonzo Key's defense, Ginobili directly broke through. Alonzo Key has speed but the defense really can't keep up with Ginobili's rhythm change. Afterwards, Ginobili separated Kaman with his right hand and made a layup with his left hand!

In the Blazers' round, CJ McCollum dribbled the ball. In this lineup, he is the leader of the team, and he owns the ball.

Mills has practiced a lot of defense with Green and others this year. Now the cute "Mishin" has a defensive secret, one by one, two squeezes and three cuts.

"boom!"

He collided heavily with McCollum. Mills was short on height but not bad on weight. This collision McCollum failed to push him away, but was stuck by him!

"I squeeze!"

After sticking to McCollum, Mills raised his hands and pressed him with his body, forcing him to deviate from the original planned route.

But McCollum was a man who could become the Blazers backcourt with Lillard. How could he be guarded like this?

With the power of Mills sticking up, McCollum suddenly changed hands and turned around, and then wiped Mills away!

How could Mills let people get past him so easily?Turning around, the guy stretched out two big hands and hugged McCollum by the waist.

I just won't let you in, even if it's a foul!Anyway, the number of times has not yet reached, no free throws.

The Blazers served from the sideline and gave it to Efflalo. He still looked for McCollum, passed the ball hand-to-hand, and made a pick-and-roll at the same time.

The Spurs switched defenses here, and Green faced McCollum. In the case of a small game, McCollum got up and threw a three-pointer!

Green defended well. When McCollum pulled up, Green also jumped up. With his long arms stretched out, he almost blocked the shot!
But McCollum was not stage fright at all against this kind of defensive shooting, although his movements were a little deformed.

"Shh-"

The three-pointer is still scored, this is definitely a fairy ball.

"One more!"

Jokic quickly served the baseline ball, and the Spurs all switched. A group of people rushed to the frontcourt at once, and the ball was passed twice to Tucker who was running in the front. Tucker scored an easy layup!

The Spurs' substitutes rely on the team to attack, and the Blazers' substitutes basically rely on CJ McCollum's offense alone.

However, McCollum has to be blown here.This guy awakened earlier than he did in history, and his scoring ability is really good. This season, he has led the way in the competition for the best sixth man. He has scored 40 points off the bench. With a tacit understanding, he has already entered the starting lineup.

However, McCollum is also very good as a substitute. Their tactics are the same as the 76ers back then. One person attacks and the rest assists in defense. The efficiency is leveraged. After McCollum holds the ball, his teammates come up one after another. The Spurs change every pick-and-roll, and are often misplaced by McCollum.

Especially the kid center Jokic, he is still a fat man, and his speed is his disadvantage.

Being hit by McCollum in a misplaced position, Jokic has no choice but to suffer from being dumb, and the two big men inside the Blazers are taller than him, which makes Jokic hard to say. Play to your own level.

But fortunately, Jokic's passing skills are still there, so he used his passing to support the team's offensive system. His passing can be said to have completely played with Lopez and Kaman.The grumpy little Lopez moved more and more, and then he almost planned to give Jokic a hug.

Green and Tucker are the biggest beneficiaries. Under the passes of Ginobili and Jokic, the two of them got a lot of three-point shots. The two abruptly allowed the Spurs to expand their lead to more than 2 points.

After the first quarter, the Blazers lost 26:34 to the Spurs by 8 points. McCollum performed very well and contributed 13 points. It can be said that he helped the team stabilize the situation on his own.

As for the Spurs, their substitutes are very powerful. In terms of performance, they are not inferior to their main players at all, and they are even worse.

If you are a die-hard Spurs fan, you will definitely say this truth at this time:

Just kidding, for the Spurs, substitutes are king, okay...
