Chapter 391 How to vote and how to have it, the hands are too hot (for subscription)

In the final quarter, Manu Ginobili started to show his power first, broke through and scored two points for a layup, and received a pass from Duncan in an air cut, causing Haslem to make two free throws for a foul.

The point difference was narrowed to only 12 points, and the home fans began to cheer, seeing the hope of winning.

Zhang Weiping sighed: "Except for Lu Yu, the other players of the Suns are still too young. They rely too much on Lu Yu. Today, a lot of points were recovered in the second half."

Sun Yiping analyzed: "The biggest weakness of the Suns is that the core players are too young. There has never been such a young team winning the championship in the history of the NBA. They lack a veteran who can stabilize the situation at a critical moment. Now it is up to Lu Can Yu stand up like he did in the first half?"

An old house where a treasure.In the NBA, the role of veterans to the team is obvious.

Veterans with good scoring skills and game experience often serve as role players or sixth men in the team. Although their playing time is not much and their statistics are not gorgeous, they can make the lineup run better.

The physical strength of veterans is definitely not as good as that of the Young Guards. Good steel is used wisely. When using veterans at critical moments, use the experience and stability of veterans. The other is the role of veterans in the locker room. They can play the role of spiritual leaders in the locker room , It can also act as a lubricant to reconcile the interpersonal relationship between players.Every veteran, the role the team wants them to play is different.

Lu Yuxia knew about this hidden danger, but he didn't ask the management to make a deal, because he believed in the talents of this group of teammates and their own abilities. They wanted to break the historical law that young people couldn't win the NBA championship this season, and use their talents to overwhelm them. everything!
Lu Yu ran back from the left corner. Haslem and Marion "closed the elevator door" in the middle, blocking Duncan and Bowen.

94 to 79, the 48th personal score.

The Spurs attacked, Duncan singled out Lu Yu, leaned on his back twice, turned around and hit the board.

94 is better than 81
Back on defense, Duncan had no expression on his face, and it was for this reason that he was called the Stone Buddha.

"Stone Buddha" Duncan's nickname came from a fan vote.

Because he often has an expressionless face, just like the stone Buddha in Chinese culture, this nickname is not only circulated in the Chinese basketball circle, but American fans also call Duncan a stone Buddha.

In fact, at the beginning of his career, Duncan was called "big basic skills" by fans because of his stable performance and solid basic skills.

This nickname is probably not remembered by many fans.

It's just that Duncan's expressionless face this time is because Lu Yu's crazy scoring caused him a little pressure.

In the positional battle, Lu Yu ran to catch the ball, but Duncan didn't follow him, so he couldn't catch up with Lu Yu.

During the timeout, Popovich told the players that no matter what stats Lu Yu got in this game, their first goal is to win. As long as they win another game, they will be stable. If they win another game, they will be firmly established in this round of the series. Take advantage.

Lu Yu saw that the defender had been replaced by Bowen on the weak side, and directly crushed with his back. Bowen fell to the ground in response, but the referee did not blow the whistle.

Lu Yu made a direct shot.

96 to 81, the 50th personal score.

Zhang Weiping shouted: "It's 50 points, and the last quarter has just started. If Lu Yu makes more shots, he may challenge for 60 points today. He is already crazy."

Sun Yiping said: "No matter what the final result of the series is, Lu Yu is not a loser. He has proved that he is the player with the strongest scoring ability in active service. Well, what I said is wrong. Lu Yu no longer needs to prove anything to the world. After all, he is already the best player in the league, and it seems to be a very simple thing for him to do this."

The Spurs attacked, Ginobili broke through and was double-teamed, Nesterovic caught the ball and hit the iron, the rebound was grabbed by Haslem, and immediately counterattacked with a pass.

Lu Yu took a half-court glance at Richardson without making a pass, and suddenly shot a three-pointer two steps outside the three-point line in the middle.Duncan retreated relatively far back, and his center of gravity also dropped lower, mainly preventing breakthroughs and had no time to block shots.

Since the injury, Duncan has become a floor runner, jumping up and down, and can only reach out to interfere. Although Lu Yu's shooting distance is far, but the rhythm is very good, the ball is hollow into the net.

99 to 81, the 53th personal score.

This goal made many home fans feel cold, and the cheering for the home team was a little quieter. At the critical moment, Lu Yu scored 8 points in a row and withstood the Spurs' counterattack.

Many fans think of Jordan's mockery of Lu Yu, saying that Lu Yu is an overrated player.

If this kind of person is overrated, who else in the NBA is not overrated?
Duncan played Haslem in singles, using his footsteps and shaking his shoulders to protrude from the bottom line in the low post, and scored a one-handed dunk. 99 to 83.

After scoring, Duncan still lowered his head and ran back blankly, as if he wasn't the one who dunked just now. The substitute players off the court were much more excited than he looked.

After the game, the media will definitely compare the core of the two teams.Duncan felt helpless. He never said that he severely suppressed the inside of the Suns, nor did he say that he was a better player than Lu Yu and that he should win the regular season MVP. These were all said by the media. He held a very high position.

If he loses at home, he will be the first to be questioned. Today Lu Yu's condition is obviously better than the previous game, and it is also difficult for his teammates to change defenses without double-teaming him.

Duncan's defense is actually very good. His defensive awareness and defensive steps are good, but Lu Yu's style of play is quite different, which is equivalent to the feeling of him defending the outside line as an inside line.

It's okay to defend once in a while, but after defending like this for the whole game, he feels a little powerless.

The Spurs attacked, Parker made a three-pointer against Richardson, and Richardson only interfered slightly.When the opportunity came, Parker couldn't grasp it. He was eager to chase points and started something he was not good at.

Haslem stuck Duncan, and Lu Yu grabbed the backcourt rebound.

Popovich shook his head on the sidelines. Nesterovic was so tall, but he couldn't grab rebounds from Lu Yu. When Duncan was stuck, let Nesterovic and Lu Yu Let's fight for rebounds together, and Nesterovic can lose eight out of ten.

Richardson took the ball to the frontcourt and passed it to Lu Yu, and then began to run without the ball, switching freely between with and without the ball.

Lu Yu handed it to Marion, and Marion accelerated his breakthrough. Before the pinch came, he gave the ball to Battier in the corner. Battier shot directly, but stepped on the three-point line, only two points were counted. In, 101 to 83
The Spurs attacked, Ginobili faced Battier's defense and directly hit a three-pointer.

101 is better than 86
As the saying goes, look at Parker in good times, Duncan in adversity, and Ginobili in desperate times.

This is not blown by Spurs fans. If there is any old man in active service who can be called a hooligan, it must be Yaodao.

Whether it's a lore, tie or overtake, Yaodao said: Don't compare your heart with me, because I don't have a heart.

Many fans know that Ginobili's nickname is Demon Sword, but why is it called Demon Sword?

It may be related to his game data and court style.

Ginobili has a lot of interesting masterpieces besides the power king on the field.

For example, in Lu Yu's previous life, when Ginobili competed against a team with O'Neal, he overwhelmed O'Neal twice in terms of statistics.

有过15分21篮板6助攻5抢断6盖帽的数据，也有过40分22篮板7助攻4抢断4盖帽的数据。

This was all played against the Lakers who had Shaquille O'Neal back then. They were able to overwhelm the opponent in terms of rebounds and blocks, and there was also an epic inside player Duncan on his side. .

吉诺比利打出的最让人觉得诡异的一场数据是03年对阵尼克斯的时候，打出0分5篮板9助攻6抢断4盖帽0失误6犯规的数据，投篮出手一次也没有，更让人惊呼的是这场数据是在出场只有7分钟时间中完成的，这种数据简直是逆天的存在。

Sometimes even the head coach Popovich said: I can't control him, he can play whatever he wants.

Lu Yu is not in a hurry at this time. Although Ginobili is quite demonic, his state is not sustainable, and it only lasts for a few minutes. To be honest, a man, sometimes it is better to last longer.

Richardson dribbled the ball across half court and handed the ball to Marion. Marion handed it back to Richardson and blocked Parker who was defending. Just shoot, mid-range hit.

103 is better than 86
Zhang Weiping praised: "Richardson's goal reminds me of Reggie Miller, he is really a natural shooter."

Sun Yiping said: "The Suns should have played this way a long time ago. In the playoffs, defense is the only way to win. Haslem and Battier can strengthen the defense, and the offense will not be much worse."

This is the responsibility of the Suns coaching staff. D'Antoni likes Nash's running and shooting, but he feels uncomfortable when Battier plays a four-star game.Facts have proved that the Suns are stronger when Battier and Lu Yu are on the court together, and they can fight back and fall.

It's embarrassing for D'Antoni to sit on the sidelines at this moment. If the team played like this earlier, it would be impossible to tie the Spurs 1-1.

Ginobili was eager to score, and he made another three-pointer against Lu Yu. He thought he had found the touch, but that was not the case, the ball bounced out of the basket.

Duncan rushed desperately to grab the offensive rebound. The penalty area was full of people. He didn't dare to force it, and passed the ball to Ginobili.

Ginobili leaned back to Shane Battier to try to make a trick, Marionson came up to double-team, Ginobili scored the ball along the way, Bowen didn't waste the opportunity, and scored from an open mid-range shot. 103 to 88.

The Suns attacked, and Lu Yu didn't find a cover. He ran without the ball and received a pass from Richardson. He quickly led from the left to the center without stopping, and Duncan's main defense kept up.

Lu Yu stopped suddenly and dribbled the ball to his left hand. The chasing "Stone Buddha" also braked quickly. As soon as he passed his body, Lu Yu lowered his center of gravity, held the ball in his left hand and changed direction to the right. He succeeded in breaking through with his speed.

His tricks are not complicated at all, just fast, and his starting speed is comparable to that of a defender. "Stone Buddha" wanted to follow up forcefully, but lost his center of gravity and sat on the ground.

Lu Yu made an emergency stop jump shot at a high position and hit it easily. 105 to 88, personal 55th point.

Duncan got up from the ground, still expressionless, just pointed to the floor, motioning for the staff to come and wipe it.

I don't know if he means the floor is too slippery, or the sweat on his body wiped the floor.

Zhang Weiping said: "I think the Spurs can't stand it anymore. The biggest suspense now is how many points Lu Yu can score."

Sun Yiping sighed: "He played a dominant performance and his scoring ability is too strong, which Duncan does not have."

Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "Duncan is now in a dilemma. After the Suns deployed Battier, the two insiders, Duncan and Nesterovic, looked a little embarrassed. They couldn't catch up or fight."

The Suns stopped double-teaming, and "Demon Sword" singled out Marion, breaking through and scoring a layup. 105 to 90.

Lu Yu and Haslem played a pick-and-roll in the middle, and Duncan switched defenses on the weak side.

Two free throws and one hit, 106 to 90.

During the dead ball, Coach Popovich chose to make a substitution. Nesterovic went off and replaced with a substitute center.

The game continued, Duncan received the ball after covering the screen, and the open jumper in the middle missed the basket. Duncan likes to hit the board on one side, or hook in the middle, allowing him to shoot in the middle of the road, but the shooting rate is not high.

Haslem grabbed the backcourt rebound and passed it to Marion. Bowen retreated too quickly to interfere with the pass. Marionson made a precise long pass to the frontcourt. Lu Yu completely got rid of Duncan with his speed. Received the pass with both hands.

He turned his head to see that no one was catching up, took a dribble to take off with all his strength, stretched his feet back, and dunked the ball with both hands.

108 to 90, the 57th personal score.

Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "At this time, Lu Yu can still perform dunks, and he is very energetic. I think the Spurs' substitution this time is a mistake, and the defense of the replaced players is too poor."

Sun Yiping said: "That's something that can't be helped. Nesterovic can't defend Lu Yu, and Duncan also defended, but the effect is not good. It's not that the players who are replaced are poor in defense, but that Lu Yu is too fierce."

Ginobili was responsible for dribbling the ball across the half court, Duncan covered for Parker, Haslem slowed down, Parker caught the ball and made a quick three-pointer. 108 to 93.

There are only sporadic applause from the fans, but the score is not enough to win the game, so it has to be guarded.

Lu Yuyun went to the front court, waved his teammates away, and singled out "Stone Buddha" with the ball.

He dribbled the ball from the crotch to the right, dribbled the ball behind his left hand to the middle, and then made another breakthrough with a dribble from the crotch. "Stone Buddha" didn't move fast enough, and was forced to pull a foul and send Lu Yu to the free throw line.

Lu Yu made two free throws steadily, 110 to 93, his 59th point.

Ginobili singles Battier and makes an emergency stop jumper. 110 to 95.

The fans of the home team began to worry, because Lu Yu seemed to be singled out again after halftime.

Duncan was even more frightened. He lowered his center of gravity and unconsciously let it go for a distance. Lu Yu suddenly retreated and made a rush shot one meter outside the three-point line on the right to avoid the blocked ball.

When returning to defense, Lu Yu spread out his hands and shrugged his shoulders. No matter how he shot right now, his hands were too hot.

113 to 95, the 62th personal score.
