Chapter 733

"Meng Xu's touch is very hot now, Tim Duncan has been double-teamed by the Pacers, and he can't find a suitable offensive opportunity, and the rest of the Spurs players are gradually losing their touch. If Popovich Without making some changes, the Pacers are going to be on the edge."

When Robert Hawley fouled Meng Xu three times in a row at the beginning of the third quarter, Popovich quickly stopped trying to use foul tactics to interrupt Meng Xu's rhythm and re-appointed Bruce Bowley. Wen, let Bruce Bowen and Manu Ginobili double-team Meng Xu, but Meng Xu turned a blind eye to the Spurs' double-team, and broke the Spurs' double-team simply and rudely with back-and-forth jump shots. .

As for the Spurs, in the first half of the third quarter, they could still rely on Manu Ginobili and others' pretty good touch to bite the score, but when the game started in the second half of the third quarter, the Spurs These outsiders suddenly lost their touch, while Meng Xu was still hot. In just two rounds, the Spurs failed to keep up, and the score between the two sides was stretched to 7 points. Keep going. By the end of the third quarter, the point difference may be more than 10 points. Entering the fourth quarter with a 10-point difference is absolutely unacceptable for the Spurs.

"Tony, you have to play resolutely, don't hesitate." Taking advantage of the gap between Tony Parker's dribble and advancement, Popovich on the sidelines leaned into the court and yelled at Tony Parker. with.In today's game, the Spurs have been in trouble since the second quarter. In addition, the Pacers have arranged two powerful insiders on the court, so Tony Parker basically has few highlights. It was almost the end of the game and only scored 5 points. Most of the time was spent watching Tim Duncan and others fight with the Pacers, completely failing to fulfill the responsibilities of a second-in-command.

Tony Parker is a very strange player. As a guard, Tony Parker's mid-range and long-range shooting is terrible, and his three-point shooting percentage has always hovered around 30%. In the 80 regular season games this season, he averaged three points per game. The number of ball shots is only 0.5 times. On the contrary, the number of shots at the basket has reached an astonishing 6 times, accounting for nearly half of the total number of shots. If you only look at the distribution of shots, 100% will think that this is an inside player. Perhaps it is precisely because of Tony Parker's weird scoring method that Popovich hopes that Tony Parker can stand up when Duncan is double-teamed and Ginobili and others feel bad.

And Tony Parker, it is precisely because of this weird offensive method that he was a little at a loss in today's game. The outside players who are themselves breakthroughs are more afraid of powerful inside players, let alone Tony Parker. It's weird, so when the Pacers have two insiders, one standing under the basket and the other standing near the free throw line, plus Tony Allen's almost abnormal personal defense, Tony Parker has no room to display at all.

After being yelled at by Popovich, Tony Parker had no choice but to bite the bullet and make a strong attack. In order to transfer the two insiders of the Pacers away from the basket, Michael Finley, who played power forward instead, ran It stopped when it was near the left side of the free throw line, and Tim Duncan came out from the basket to pick and roll for Tony Parker after Tony Parker dribbled the ball to the top of the arc. After the basket, Darko Milicic, who was facing Tim Duncan, naturally left the basket.

After finishing the pick-and-roll with Duncan at the top of the arc, Tony Parker used his dislocation advantage of playing small and big to get rid of Darko Milicic directly, and then swayed Jermaine O'Neal who was defending in the middle, all the way Rushing to the basket for a layup, Tony Parker's layup finally ended the Spurs' nearly 2-minute scoring drought.

"Oh, oh, oh, the expressions of the Spurs' benches are really interesting." After Tony Parker scored a layup, the live rebroadcast footage was given to the Spurs' bench, and other teams scored wonderful goals. Afterwards, the posture of waving a towel and wishing to rush to the court to celebrate was completely different. The Spurs' bench has always been known for its calmness, but this time when Tony Parker stopped the Spurs' scoring drought, the players on the bench also They all stood up, cheering for Tony Parker's goal, but only halfway through the cheering, the expressions on their faces changed. Some players even dropped the towels in their hands and sat down resentfully.

Because just as the Spurs' bench was cheering for Tony Parker's layup, the Pacers had already quickly sent the baseline ball on the court. Before the Spurs could completely retreat, they received Tyshawn Prince Meng Xu, who passed the ball, was already hanging on the basket. Only 8 seconds after Tony Parker scored a layup, Meng Xu hit him back with a dunk.

Before the excitement passed, Tony Parker, who was slapped firmly by Meng Xu, obviously felt that he couldn't hold his face. Therefore, when the offense and defense switched, Tony Parker dribbled the ball near the top of the arc, and imagined the last time As in the offense, repeat the same trick.

After calling Duncan's pick-and-roll, Tony Parker began to move the ball laterally. When it reached the 45-degree angle on the right side of the three-point line, Tim Duncan, who was already waiting there, took Tony Parker who was following Parker. Len was blocked behind, and Tony Parker, after getting rid of Tony Allen, got rid of Darko Milicic and rushed towards the Pacers' basket.

The empty paint area is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for Tony Parker, so in this attack, Tony Parker also wanted to use a dunk to counter Meng Xu, although Popovich repeatedly emphasized to Parker , If you can layup, you don’t dunk, but as a professional basketball player, Tony Parker, like most players, has a heart for dunking.

Accelerating, accelerating, accelerating, the unguarded Tony Parker rushed to the Pacers' basket like a cannonball, and jumped up about 3 meters away from the basket, grabbing the basketball with one hand Ready to dunk hard into the basket.

"This goal will definitely be scored!" Tony Parker, who had already jumped up, was full of confidence in himself. Even at this moment, everything around him disappeared in his eyes, and the only thing left was the Pacers' basket. basket.

However, just as Tony Parker was getting closer and closer to the basket, and his right hand holding the basketball was constantly accumulating strength, and was about to smash the basketball into the basket, suddenly, a big hand appeared on Tony - In Parker's sight, he pressed hard on the basketball that hadn't left his hand. Tony Parker, who was still flying in the air, instantly felt as if a sledgehammer hit his body, and immediately lost his balance. fell to the ground.

"He, when did he appear behind me?" Tony Parker, who fell to the ground, stared at Meng Xu who was standing in front of him after falling from the air, unable to calm down for a long time. The Spurs players who cheered and celebrated Tony Parker's dunk looked at Meng Xu with their mouths open in disbelief.

"Tony, you must pay attention to your back in advance when you are doing fast breaks or layups." Seeing Tony Parker who was still sitting on the ground with a dull expression on his face, Meng Xu shrugged at him with a smile on his face, and then Just give each other a high-five and celebrate with the teammates rushing towards you.

. . . . . .

"Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful block!" After Meng Xu blocked Tony Parker's dunk, teacher Zhang Weiping, nicknamed Zhang Reasonable, in the CCAV studio on the other side of the ocean, couldn't contain his excitement instantly.

The finals between the Pacers and Spurs was also a prosperous time for countless Chinese fans. Because of Meng Xu, the Spurs also had a large number of fans in China. Although Meng Xu left the Spurs later, he still There are many fans who still continue to support the Spurs and like Duncan, let alone Meng Xu. As a superstar born in China, Meng Xu's popularity in China is absolutely unparalleled, so for the Pacers and For the Spurs finals, CCAV took out almost all the resources, and it was even circulated within CCAV that if the ratings of this broadcast were lower than 30%, it would be a failure.

"Meng Xu's blocking this time is really domineering. In the recent attacks and defenses, Meng Xu has shown his dominance all the time." After Zhang Lili's voice fell, Sun Zhengping also followed up with Meng Xu. Kua, with Meng Xu's current status and influence in the NBA, it can't be overstated. What's more, in today's game, Meng Xu really performed like a god descending from the earth. Before the end of the three quarters, he had already scored 38 points. Points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, 2 blocked shots.

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is also a popular book in our country. Anyone who is familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms should know the plot of the Three Kingdoms' battle with Lu Bu. In today's match, Meng Xu is like Lu Bu before the Hulao Pass. The Spurs' GDP combination is Liu Guan and Zhang Sanying. If the Spurs want to break through the Hulao Pass and win the championship, they must defeat Meng Xu. But from today's game, we can see that no matter what your GDP is, I am Meng Xu It’s still Meng Xu! You don’t have to be afraid of [-]v[-]!” Compared with Sun Zhengping’s flattery of Meng Xu, Mr. Zhang Lili undoubtedly boasted more powerfully and of a higher standard, directly comparing Meng Xu to Lu Bu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, One person picks the Spurs' GDP combination hard. Of course, this is the current situation in the Huaguo commentary circle. If the Pacers win, it must be the credit of the team boss Meng Xu. If the Pacers lose, it is the teammate CBA. Awesome, Xiao Ao has no brains, always hits the outside line, but fortunately, the Pacers don't lose many times.
