Standing pretty old

Chapter 253 Victory over the Spurs
Superstars all have their own offensive system, but this does not mean that every superstar has super support and ball transmission capabilities.

At least for now, Ruan Erniu does not have such ability.

Although on the offensive end, whether it is attacking with the ball or receiving the ball, he can do very well, and he can get more than 5.3 assists per game, but this does not mean that Ruan Erniu is an excellent passer hand.

Ruan Erniu's assist was not so much a pass, but an offensive opportunity created by his strong personal deterrence.

It is precisely because of Ruan Erniu's super personal ability that fully attracts and compresses the opponent's defense, his passing will allow his teammates to get sufficient open or quasi-open opportunities.

Therefore, maintaining or even increasing possession of the ball is the basketball strategy that Ruan Erniu should stick to at this stage.

Yes, Er Niu scored triple-doubles many times in his rookie season, but this by no means means that he is an excellent passer.

He is not a magician, nor Kidd, he is more like a pass-optimized version of O'Neal.At least in terms of lethality in the low post, Ruan Erniu did as well as the Sharks in his rookie season.

Before the start of the fourth quarter, Duncan said to Popovich: "The Celtics are in trouble. The Eagles are running very fast. They have found a way to win."

Popovich snorted coldly and said, "Stop talking nonsense. This season, we need to get rid of our opponents in the Western Conference first. But now, we need to get rid of the immediate troubles first."

The game officially started in the last quarter, and Ruan Erniu started the game. He was very excited from the beginning.

Ruan Erniu got a rest time of about 3 minutes at the end of the third quarter, so he got the chance to play at the beginning of the first quarter.

Red Mamba Matt Bonner and Robert I'm More Handsome Than Will Smith Horry teamed up to double him.

Ruan Erniu was trying to survive in the cracks, he forced the two of them away, made a small throw, and missed.

But it doesn't matter, Er Niu grabbed the offensive rebound, took off for the second time, and made a tip-up.

From the beginning of the fourth quarter, Ruan Erniu had a tendency to completely overwhelm the game.

Horry is really old. I don't know if he can contribute key 3-pointers to the Spurs in the playoffs.

Since the injury, his already scarce athletic ability has further declined.

Facing the impact of the new generation of beast-level players like Ruan Erniu, his movements are almost like an old man over [-] years old.Maybe after this season, he can really choose to retire.

In fact, he did think about it in his heart.

Entered the league in 1992, nearly 17 years of career, won 7 championships (Rockets 2 times, Lakers 3 times, Spurs 2 times), the data can never be put on the table, but it can always be damned at the critical moment basketball shoots into the hoop.

Maintained the record of 56 three-pointers in the finals, and people in the world called "Big-Shot-Rob".

This is a man who has both the fate of a champion and the luck of a champion.

Of course, his era is about to pass, and now it is the world of young people like Ruan Erniu.

Ruan Erniu, who hit the head of Xing, had long since thrown away the traditional virtues of respecting the old and loving the young. He made a neat half-turn, and then took a big stride. Completed a slam dunk.

Popovich had to call a timeout again, and replaced Duncan and others on the field in advance.

The time for the decisive victory has come, and if the momentum is not reversed now, the game may have to be explained.

Duncan did not live up to Popovich's trust. Just after playing, he hit consecutive shots above Marvin Williams' head.

Marvin tried his best to block it, but Duncan still made a strong shot. This is a superstar. You know he is going to shoot, but there is no way to prevent him.

Ruan Erniu didn't care about this, he continued to put pressure on the Spurs on the offensive end, almost at the same position as Duncan's shot, he rose up and hit 2 points.

The two league's top insiders didn't have a direct matchup, but they played hard.

Duncan held the ball in a high position, then half-turned and hit Marvin Williams with his back. After two steps back, he turned and threw his opponent away.

Ruan Erniu predicted this situation, and immediately stepped up to defend. The No. 21 rookie made a fake pass and sent the ball into the air.

Matt Bonner, this guy actually flew up, grabbed the basket with both hands, and dunked well.

Who said the Red Mamba has poor athletic ability?This ball can be said to be Yan dunked Kraft Nguyen!
Of course, Er Niu would not let him go, and immediately used violence to push away the Red Mamba on the offensive end. Taking advantage of Duncan's lack of supplementary defense, he quickly made a dunk.

Duncan held the ball with his back in the bullhorn position. After compressing the defense, he passed the ball to Ginobili on the outside. The latter made a long shot from outside the 3-point line, which further narrowed the score.

Unfortunately, the Eagles are also not soft on their side.

Ruan Erniu was still holding the ball in the low post, and he also compressed the defense inward, and then passed the ball outward, and the ball reached Mike Bibby.

The White Devil also responded with a 3-pointer, and the score was drawn again.

The two teams continued the game in a tug-of-war.

This is of course the best thing for the Eagles, they have a leading advantage.

The Spurs playing at home will be uncomfortable. They will lose in front of their fans to an opponent that has not lost in more than 2 seasons-the Atlanta Hawks.

As the game passed minute by minute, the Spurs set off waves of counterattacks many times.

However, today, under the leadership of Ruan Erniu, the Eagles also defended tenaciously to the end, killing the Spurs' opportunities time after time.

With the last 3 minutes left in the game, Popovich finally lowered his proud head, seeing that the situation was gone.

As a wily man, he will not be discouraged by the gains or losses of a game.He replaced all the main players in order to allow them to retain their strength.

Ruan Erniu, Jiongsen, Bibby and other Hawks main players were also replaced in the next offensive round.

In the game against the top teams in the league, he enjoyed the treatment of leaving the field early, which fully shows how well the Eagles played today.

As the camera captured the Eagles' smiling expressions and dances, and then gave the Spurs a set of expressions of sentient beings as usual, the game gradually came to an end.

At 110:89, the Atlanta Hawks in the away game actually beat their opponents by 21 points. If the Spurs' substitute did not play well at the last moment, the difference would probably be close to 30 points.

Popovich took the initiative to shake hands with Woodson for the first time this season. According to seniority, it should be the egghead who came to Popovich on his own initiative at this time.

"Mike, congratulations, you finally got a good hand!" Gregg Popovich said sincerely.

Mike Woodson said with a smile: "Maybe, it's just that our leader is still a little too young, and we don't know where he can lead the team."

Popovich said: "I wish you can get rid of the Celtics, I hope we can see you in the finals!"

After speaking, Popovich turned and went back to the locker room.

"Old fox!" Mike Woodson cursed inwardly.

Ruan Erniu also took the initiative to walk in front of Dadai, and after the two embraced, Erniu smiled and said: "Tim, I believe you will continue to rule the league in the future, thank you for giving me today's game! "

Duncan laughed loudly, and gave him a punch, and said, "In June this year, I will return the original words to you."
