Countercurrent and become a superstar

“Hori made his move!

In the right corner, he received the pass from Ginobili and shot a three-point jumper. Payton, who was on guard, was busy blocking Ginobili's magic sword, but couldn't take care of the three-point turret on the outside. He could only listen to the gunshot..."

Bang-dang——!
The opportunity has come.

Unfortunately, Horry, a big-game player, missed his three-point shot.

"Huh!

Duncan stepped up and took back the basketball that Horry had missed.

After getting the ball, he was immediately surrounded. Duncan passed the ball to Ginobili, Kobe immediately rushed over, and the ball was quickly passed to Horry who came in through the air. He caught the ball, raised his head and shot a two-point jump shot..."

I have to say, Ginobili dares to pass and Horry really dares to shoot.

In Qin Yang's previous life, Horry was able to win 7 championships. He really had something in his hands.

but……

Bang-dang——!
Another missed shot!
If Horry had enough gas in his tank, he wouldn't have shot only 03% from three-point range in the 5 playoffs.

The Spurs will treat him as a treasure, of course not because he doesn't take a shower, but because he is cheap.

"OMG!!

Even after grabbing the offensive rebound and making the final shot, he still couldn't break the scoring drought?

He is so stubborn that he has no friends..."

Offensive and defensive transition, the Lakers attack.

Qin Yang continued to act as a tool, passing the basketball to Kobe and bringing Parker's defense to Kobe.

"Good guy!

My goodness, the Lakers' golden duo specifically targeted the Spurs' point guard for homework, and then the music played and then the dance began.

This is just biting the Spurs' pain point and not letting go!

Look at Kobe's performance, he broke through, he pulled it up, he finally, finally nailed it..."

Bang-dang——!
When playing against Parker, opportunities are naturally created, but the feel of the hand is a very complicated thing, and even Kobe, who is going crazy, can't grasp it.

"The Spurs' defense is finally reliable!

This is something they can use to win the game. Although the opponent is Kobe, if they continue to lose points, they should also reflect on whether they have worked hard to do a good job..."

At this time, the Lakers also made adjustments, replacing Payton and Diop with Chandler and Okur, and the starting five returned.

In the transition from offense to defense, Duncan and Parker, who have returned, naturally have to take on the task of offense and scoring.

Parker lobbed the ball to the low post, and Duncan forced his way past Chandler. Jamison still moved closer, but he did not double-team him.

Duncan finally stopped and chose to pass the ball to Bowen in the corner.

"Wow, Bowen quickly moved out, found Parker on the wing, and took the ball to face Qin Yang.

Oh, this is the Spurs' safety move. It is a correct tactical move based on the intelligence collected in the previous games..."

You know, the Lakers' weaknesses are at the center and point guard positions. So, Duncan can rush into the low post, pass the ball, and then let Parker or Ginobili rush again, thus peeling off the Lakers' defense layer by layer.

What the Spurs gained was a little bit of accumulated scoring advantage...

“Parker breaks in with the ball.

Wow, Duncan set a high screen and blocked Qin Yang's defense.

Parker rushed to the restricted area and came into his shooting range. He pulled up and raised his hand for a two-point jump shot.

Hey, Kobe comes and dives to block the shot..."

Bang-dang——!
Once again, the chance came, but once again, the shot went wide.

To be honest, the Spurs believe in basketball that does not make mistakes through teamwork, combined with reasonable basketball that combines collecting intelligence and targeting with their own advantages to accumulate scoring advantages bit by bit, and with extremely exceptional defensive skills at the league's ceiling, they have built the Spurs' top-level "correct basketball" system, which is really good.

Any team that copies any of these three tactical systems can become a playoff-level team.

Well, there is nothing wrong with the concept anyway!

If you can’t catch any fish and get any points, it means the players are not working hard enough!
It’s true, the Spurs are strong because if they can’t score, it will be difficult for the Lakers to score either.

In the next round, Kobe shot despite Bowen's block, but the shot went wide with a clang.

Every game up to this point has been a test.

Although Kobe is known for his iron shooting, bah, his body is made of iron, but he fought hard on both offense and defense and played for 40 minutes. It was a very hard-fought game. No matter who replaced him, his physical strength would not be able to sustain.

In this situation, you can only endure.

I can only tell myself that I can still fight for a few more minutes.

It is not surprising if the attack fails.

Looking back, Parker directly asked for a pick-and-roll.

Then he broke through with the ball and continued to test the Lakers' defense with his accurate mid-range shots.

"Qin Yang was blocked again!
Kobe switched defense again, but failed to block Parker's shot, so he had to gamble..."

Bang-dang——!
You guessed it right, there were no bullets in the pistol that Parker used to make the accurate shot.

On the sidelines, Popovich's face was as ugly as it could be.

On the court, the players played comfortable shots every time, which were the scoring modes they were good at offensively. For example, Duncan's low post, Bowen's three-pointer in the bottom corner, Horry's open shot, Barry's open three-pointer, Parker's jump shot after a sharp breakthrough...

As a result, they hit a wall in their areas of offensive strength and comfort.

What else do you want from him?
On the court, Kobe missed consecutive shots. Qin Yang did not favor Kobe alone, but chose to play by himself.

“Qin Yang controlled the ball to the front court and acted as a reckless person.

He dribbled the ball and rushed into the game. Ginobili came to help and they formed a double team defense with Parker.

Wow, Qin Yang rushed forward and chased after Parker. Parker was fighting and retreating, but before Duncan could provide support, he saw Qin Yang showing off his European step layup in front of him.

Parker tried his best to defend, and then the whistle blew..."

Beep——!
Bang-dang——!
The good news is: Qin Yang's attack failed.

The bad news: The referee called a foul.

“This is experience!!
Qin Yang got the chance to shoot free throws.

Oh no, including this foul, Parker now has 5 fouls on him, and there is only one left before he is forced to leave the game.

high!
Qin Yang's tactical intention was likely several stories high. In the third quarter, he repeatedly called on Parker, although he missed every shot.

But if the goal was to cause Parker to foul, then Qin Yang's 6-for-1 performance in the third quarter is not unforgivable.

Parker was originally the weakness of the Spurs, and now he has 6 fouls, which makes it difficult to deal with him..."

Swish-!
Swish-!
Qin Yang showed no mercy and made all the free throws, extending the lead to 8 points.

83 to 91! !
This is also a very headache-inducing score difference for the Spurs!

Especially since their offensive system was completely blocked, if there was no timely help, they would be defeated in this match.

There was no other way. At this time, Parker did not waste time anymore and chose to give the damn basketball to the demon sword Ginobili.

"A sports car in adversity, a Buddha in adversity, a demon sword in despair, slaying demons!
Let’s see if Ginobili can reproduce the magical performance he had in the 04 Olympics?

Wow, Kobe pulled up his shorts and stared at Ginobili intently.

Fight the toughest battle in offense and take the most advantageous defense!
Next, let’s look at the matchup between Ginobili and Kobe.

Kobe Bryant used active and excellent defense to block his consecutive dribbling steps with the ball.

He raised the ball to shoot a three-pointer and mobilized Kobe to rush over. Ginobili immediately took the ball and touched Kobe's body. Oh no, Kobe retreated, but Ginobili seized the opportunity and rushed forward with the ball.

This was a very smart shot.

Ginobili rushed into the restricted area and immediately snaked past Okur.

Beautiful! ! While causing Okur to foul, Ginobili also threw his body into the restricted area and scored the damn basketball..."

Beep——!
Swish-!
After scoring 2+1, Ginobili, lying on the floor, clenched his fists and celebrated.

Duncan and Parker pulled Ginobili up, and the GDP formed by the three of them prospered together. At this time, they were also very excited that Ginobili scored such an inspiring goal.

On the sidelines, the home fans chose to greet the team with boos.

but……

The sword could not be stopped from coming out of its sheath, and he scored a point by making the free throw.

Swish-!
With Ginobili challenging Kobe and Okur in a desperate situation and scoring 3 points, the Spurs brought the suspense of the game back to the point where the difference between the two sides was only 5 points.

The difference is only two goals!!

86 to 91! !
Looking back, Kobe reached out for the ball, but Qin Yang chose to ignore it.

There was no intention to release the ball at eight points, but Qin Yang wanted to kill Parker.

"Qin Yang asked for a traffic signal, and Okur went to the high post to receive the ball.

Oh, no, Qin Yang did not pass the ball, but instead made an outside screen with Qin Yang who moved from the left to the top arc.

While Qin Yang blocked Bowen, he also handed the basketball to Kobe.

Beautiful combination!
Kobe got the ball and was out of position against Parker who had 5 fouls. Without thinking, Kobe immediately broke through with the ball. Parker had no choice but to fight and retreat.

What the hell?

Kobe pulled up and went to the free throw line. Instead of breaking through deep, Kobe used his two-point fadeaway jumper to test the Spurs' defense..."

Parker rushed out to block the shot, Ginobili also rushed over to assist, and Duncan's sweeping block also rushed in front of Kobe.

pity……

Kobe jumped into the air and threw the basketball out like a painting, and a beautiful arc appeared in the air.

Swish-!
Knife dropped, goal scored.

On the commentary stand, Barkley watched and shook his head.

“This is Kobe!!
The Spurs made a lot of tactical 'fine-tuning', but from beginning to end, they did not solve Kobe's offensive scoring problem.

Whether it's Bowen, Ginobili, Barry, Parker and the like, they can't stop Kobe from finding his shooting accuracy..."

86 to 93! !
The point difference became 7 points! !
