Chapter 221 A Difficult Equalizer

At this time, Nash, the core player of the Suns, stepped forward, with long hair fluttering, his body leaning forward slightly, and his feet were moving quickly. As soon as he crossed the midfield line, Van Exel greeted him, Nash The footsteps stopped for a while, and then suddenly accelerated to one side, as if to bypass Van Exel, Van Exel hurriedly moved his footsteps, but unfortunately the lateral movement speed was slower than Nash, and he was about to be broken by Nash line of defense.

Who knew that Nash suddenly slowed down at this time, and then jumped back with the force of Van Exel's impact, and at the same time raised the ball in his hand to the basket, and saw the ball quickly rose to the highest point , and then move forward along a set solitary line, with crisp impact sounds, crisp friction sounds, interlacing of red and white, blending of passion and calmness.

Nash's three-pointer opened the gap again. After coming back, Stephen did not choose to shoot himself after breaking through. Instead, after attracting the attention of the defense, he handed the ball to Nesterovic, which made people It's a pity that Nesterovic didn't make a shot without defense, but Stephen stepped forward, grabbed the rebound again, and protected the ball this time.

Under Marion's key marking, Stephen still didn't make a shot by himself. Instead, he flicked the ball hard and threw the ball to Van Exel who had been standing outside the three-point line for a long time. He is not very tall, but he is very daring to shoot, and he is a strong player in key battles.

After receiving the ball, Van Exel threw the ball decisively without hesitation, but the ball landed in the basket, jumped high to the top of the backboard, and then fell heavily between the ring and the backboard position, and jumped into mid-air again.

It was Stephen who jumped up between Kurt Thomas and Marion and took off the rebound. After taking off the rebound, Stephen lowered his body, pushed with his hand, and passed the ball to the other side. Ginobili, then spun himself out, ran beyond the three-point line, received a pass from Ginobili in the air, and threw the ball firmly to the basket.

After three attempts, the ball finally entered the basket as desired, but after adding a three-pointer to the score, the sideline referee indicated that there was a problem with the three-pointer. After reviewing the video of the referee, Stephen was jumping. His position seemed to be in contact with the three-point line, and finally the three-pointer turned into two points.

Three points turned into two points, Stephen didn't say anything, although the fans were booing the referee in dissatisfaction, our home court, and we are behind, why should we change the judgment for a ball that can be judged or not? The sideline referee named Floyd, doesn't he know that he has to take care of the emotions of our home fans?

After returning, due to the influence of the ball just now, Van Exel did not dare to go forward so aggressively, and Nash easily broke through with the ball. After entering, Nash immediately took off and shot. cap, and the hand only just swept the basketball, but the ball still fell into the basket.

"It's unlucky, if I don't touch it, I can't tell if I can't score this ball." While running towards his own half, Robert Horry complained, Stephen smiled at him, sometimes like this, Stephen also saw that Robert Horry touched the ball, and then the trajectory of the ball changed significantly. If Robert Horry didn't touch it, the ball would definitely not go in.

After returning, Ginobili used Robert Horry's cover to get rid of Lagabel's defense, and easily made a shot in front of Tim Thomas. At the same time, he caused a foul by Tim Thomas and made an extra penalty. The score gap came to three points again.

The offense of the Suns is still initiated by Nash. While running, Nash suddenly turned around, but threw his hand back and passed the ball to Lagabel who was outside the three-point line. Lagabel's three-pointer in this game is not good Great, but still throws the ball firmly.

This three-pointer is even more unreliable than the previous shots. Lagabel threw the ball directly into the hands of Kurt Thomas. It looked like a pass. Kurt Thomas saw Nesterovic Still one step away from himself, he jumped up and shot the ball very quickly, without noticing an exclamation coming from behind.

It turned out that Stephen also ran to the basket to grab the rebound. Seeing that the ball fell directly into Kurt Thomas's hands, he stopped and stood just behind Kurt Thomas. When Kurt Thomas shot, Stephen jumped up high, and Marion's reminder was a step slower, watching Kurt Thomas' shot being abruptly pressed down by Stephen.

Although Kurt Thomas didn't lose the ball in his hand, he was directly pressed by Stephen to sit on the ground. At this time, Stephen snatched the ball, and the referee had already put the whistle to his mouth to blow Kurt Thomas to walk, but Seeing that Stephen got the ball, out of the principle of favorable offense, maintaining the fluidity of the ball, and at the same time the home field factor, he did not blow the whistle, but let the game continue.

At the same time that Stephen got the ball, Van Exel asked Stephen while retreating to the frontcourt, and Ginobili and Robert Horry were also running, but the ones running in front were Nash and Ma of the Suns. Lyon, as the team that is best at fast breaks, naturally has its own set of defenses against fast breaks.

Seeing that there was no opportunity for a fast break, Stephen dribbled the ball across the half court by himself. At this time, except for Nesterovich who was still behind Stephen, everyone else had already run to the front, including the entire Sun team. As soon as halftime passed, Marion came over and wanted to press Stephen hard to let Stephen lose the ball, but Stephen supported him with one hand so that he couldn't get close to himself, and then squeezed in step by step. Marion was very powerful, and Stephen squeezed It was very difficult, but Stephen just squeezed in step by step, until Lagabel came over from the side to double-team himself, and Stephen passed the ball to Ginobili.

Lagabel hurriedly turned back to defend Ginobili, and Ginobili passed the ball directly to Stephen. Marion seemed to see an opportunity, and hurriedly reached out to steal one from Stephen, but he didn't know that Stephen had already passed the ball. Waiting for this opportunity, he turned sideways to avoid Marion's steal, and at the same time reached out and sent the ball firmly into the basket.

Stealing is a gambling-style defense. Once the steal is unsuccessful, it will cause a defensive loss. Therefore, ordinary defensive masters never rush to steal. While scoring two points, Stephen also helped the team narrow the gap to one cent.

Nash quickly returned and assisted Marion to score two points. This time, Stephen wanted to block Nash, and then Nash turned into a pass and passed the ball to Marion. Marion immediately used his weird shooting posture to pass the ball The ball went into the basket and scored two points for the Suns.

It cannot be said that Stephen made a mistake in this defense. Van Exel has lost his defensive position. If Stephen does not block Nash, Nash can also shoot easily. With his shooting percentage of more than [-]%, basically follow the lead The points are almost the same.

The gap came back to three points. After coming back, the Spurs were a little eager to equalize the score. Both Ginobili and Robert Horry chose to shoot from outside the three-point line, but they both missed, but there was Nestor at the basket. Lovech and Stephen were there, each of them protected an offensive rebound, and the ball was still on the Spurs' side.

Another shot, this time replaced by Van Exel, although he has already taken a step in from the three-point line, but the ball still did not fall into the basket, and it jumped high above the basket. At this time, Stephen They jumped at the same time as Kurt Thomas. When they were in the air, Kurt Thomas stretched out his left arm and pressed Stephen, but Stephen still put the ball into the basket, and the referee whistled.

Stephen hesitated for a while when making free throws, and still used the inverted toilet free throw method. With the increase in the percentage of ordinary free throws, this free throw method has been used less and less. When Stephen is at home, when the key free throws are made, Only this kind of free throw method is used, and it is also to please the fans. As for the away fans, unless they think of Stephen making free throws like this, they are watching TV.

The ball spun around the hoop several times, but still fell into the hoop. The Spurs tied the score for the first time after falling behind in the opening 2 minutes. However, there was only a little more than 1 minute left in the first half. None of the head coaches called a timeout, allowing the game to proceed under the control of the players.

Nash missed the shot and lost the chance to re-open the score. The Spurs also missed the attack. The two teams coincidentally failed to score. The score is still 59 to 59. Both sides have one chance to attack .

Nash dribbled the ball to the basket, and suddenly got out from the basket again, but the ball in his hand disappeared. Kurt Thomas missed the shot under the interference of Nestlovic, but the ball Still in his hands, just as he was about to take another shot, Robert Horry suddenly flicked the ball out of his hands.

The ball fell to the ground and rolled to one side. When it was about to roll out of the bottom line, Stephen jumped over to save the ball and threw it to Ginobili while lying on the ground. When Stephen got up from the ground and ran to the front On the court, Ginobili has already thrown the ball into the basket.

The Spurs took the lead for the first time, but still left the Suns offense with 13 seconds of attack time. Nash crossed the half court like the wind, leaving Van Exel behind in three steps and two steps, and then from The baseline slipped to the other side, and with a sudden swing back, Kurt Thomas easily put the ball into the basket while everyone else's attention was attracted by Nash.

In the three-second attack time, Robert Horry sent the ball directly to the midfield. After Ginobili received the ball, he immediately threw the ball to the basket.
