Healing Basketball

  Chapter 720 720. Reappearance 40+!

   Duncan looked at this guy, he felt that he was useless, useless, and handed the ball to Ginobili in the second half.

   Ginobili said he can!

In the third quarter, the Spurs took off. Ginobili scored 11 points, Duncan scored 6 points, and Bowen made 3 of 5 shots from the baseline. Two three-pointers and one long two-pointer... The Spurs scored 31 points in a single quarter. The Trail Blazers were 31 to 27. After three quarters, the Spurs led the Trail Blazers 84 to 80 by 4 points!

  In response to the Trail Blazers' 34 points in the second quarter, Popovich made a decision that he had never made in the playoffs in the past 8 years at halftime-soaring offense.

   But in terms of offense, the Trail Blazers were better. At 11 minutes and 57 seconds before the final quarter, the Trail Blazers scored 35 to 28 and overtook the Spurs by three points 115 to 112!

  Ray Allen took over the flying squirrel's outside scoring banner, 11 points in a single quarter, Liu Xiu 9 points and 2 assists, Kwame Brown 6 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, playing the Spurs.

   Just when the Trail Blazers thought they were about to tie the score, they came back from a timeout and Ginobili hit a three-pointer at the buzzer.

   The score was equalized, and Ginobili dragged the game into overtime!

   But after overtime, the Spurs played an embarrassing 4 minutes and 50 seconds.

For a full 4 minutes and 50 seconds, the Spurs did not score a point, and they made all 7 shots. Finally, in the last 10 seconds when the Trail Blazers were defenseless, Bowen ran to the bottom corner of the frontcourt and received the ball. Scored a three-pointer and eased the embarrassment.

   The rhythm of the regular season was not well controlled, and the Spurs collapsed in overtime!

  Especially Ginobili, who scored 30 points in 35 minutes of regular time, and has already fought to the limit.

   On the other side, Liu Xiu made 5 of 9 shots in overtime and scored 13 points! No one else scored in overtime for the Trail Blazers, but they still scored 13-3.

Although Duncan scored 33 points on 12 of 23 shots and 9 of 14 free throws, Ginobili scored 30 points on 10 of 19 shots, and Bowen scored 26 points on 9 of 15 shots, the second highest in his playoff career...Spurs The team is still defeated in the offensive battle.

Relying on 13 points in overtime, Liu Xiu made 15 of 31 shots, including 2 of 7 three-pointers and 9 of 10 free throws. He scored 41 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, plus Ray Allen's 28 points , Zach Randolph's 16 points, Flying Squirrel's 18 points... The Trail Blazers beat the Spurs 128 to 118 away to tie the big score!

  …

  The biggest difference in this year's regional finals is here!

  The East and West finals have been played in 4 games, and the maximum point difference is only 10 points, which is rare in NBA history.

  The gap in strength is so small that it has been rare for many years.

   After each game, there are many topics for media hype and fans to discuss.

   The most popular topic is naturally the topic of Yao Sha's duel.

  Liu Xiu didn't hold back this time in the divisional finals, so she spent time in front of the computer...

  When he browsed to domestic portal websites and forums, he was quite puzzled.

  Yao Ming played so well this time, but there are still some media and famous Internet figures who say that O’Neill is now in decline. If O’Neill was replaced by O’Neill 5 years ago, Yao Ming was beaten so badly that he didn’t even know his mother... Public opinion is in a mess.

   There are also a group of people about his news, but Yao Ming is more popular this time in the division finals, and the number of pens shooting at him is much less.

  The day after G4 was finished, a new month arrived.

   In the afternoon, Liu Xiu returned to Portland with the team. There are still two days of rest for this home and away game, and they will play G5 on the 3rd.

  After arriving in Portland, Liu Xiu, Payton, McDyess and others were called by the coaching staff and went directly to the Rose Garden Arena. The others got off work and had warm-up training tomorrow.

  The purpose of asking them to go is to review and discuss the first 4 games with the coaching staff.

  First, Huo Tu and the vice president partnered to sort out the basic situation of the first 4 games, and then everyone spoke to express their opinions.

   Liu Xiu took the lead in saying: "Comparing the first two games and the last two games separately, the Spurs' style of play has changed a lot. This may become our trouble in the future, but now it will be our opportunity."

  The coach responded: "Warden, you are right, I buy it, I really didn't expect Popovich to make such a radical change. I always thought he was the same as Larry Brown..."

"Stop," the vice president interrupted the coach, and said, "What Jess said was exactly what I, Kevin, Lionel, and Jeff discussed this morning, but we also had differences. Should we use defense to snipe them, or follow their changes and use a more unrestrained and wilder attack to confront them."

   Payton heard the words and asked: "So extreme?"

  The coach finally became serious: "This is not extreme, but if we seek balance, it means that we have done nothing.

  We managed to equalize the big score. If we lose the day after tomorrow, it will be very difficult to equalize the score again in the away game.

  We have to make good use of the fact that they want to change. We saw their offense last night, and they are prepared. "

  Seeing that everyone was nodding, the coach felt that the atmosphere should be relaxed, and asked Liu Xiu, "Warden, how do you choose?"

  Liu Xiu answered immediately: "At the beginning, attack and rush! Go all out! If it doesn't work, we will play defense later."

  The vice president complained: "I know you only have this answer. In these few games, every time you start, you are wasting..."

The coach interrupted: "Then we scored 52 points and 41 points and led us to tie the score. It was amazing. 93 points in two games. Kevin, you played in the playoffs... Oh, yes, you haven't played in the season. Playoffs."

  The vice-president named String of Reason is about to collapse...

   But the atmosphere is indeed relaxed.

  Although it was annoying, the vice president also felt that what the coach said made sense—the warden always started so well.

  In this case, it is indeed a good idea to increase the opening attack to induce the Spurs to adjust their style of play.

  After the meeting, the players left, and the coaches continued to work overtime.

Huo Tu slightly shook his head and said, "I can't believe it. We've been worrying about how to deal with the slow start of the attack. The warden solved it by himself. Our overall attack was so poor last night. If it wasn't for the typical The warden scored 10 points alone, and we may be behind by more than 8 points in the first quarter, and it will be more difficult to catch up later...I dare not continue to think about it."

   "He should have been worrying about this problem, thinking of a solution, and finally decided to rely on his personal ability to solve this matter. Every time he feels his progress, it is so incredible..." The vice president's tone was full of relief.

   At this time, the coach asked: "Is it possible that he doesn't care about the attack at the beginning, and thinks that it is a great thing to win after a slow start?"

The vice president sneered and said, "Go, go, do you think Jess is you? Don't look at how many times you have been in the All-Star team and been selected to the best defensive team in your player days. You can guess the genius of Jess." of?"
