I’m Really Playing Basketball

In the G6 station between the Warriors and the Spurs, the Warriors standing on the edge of the cliff won a difficult victory at home with Chen Xiao and Klay scoring 94 points. The big score came back to 3-3.

Such a victory must be quite a huge morale boost for the Warriors.

Although the Warriors still have a lot of problems when facing the Spurs, such as the thick eyebrows on the perimeter, his offense is facing Wheat and Leonard, and the offense is a bit difficult to open.

On the inside, in the face of a combination of people like Duncan and Dior, the combination of him and Jokic is too tender and easy to be caught.

Therefore, the Warriors are now facing the Spurs, and they definitely belong to the side with more loopholes and the side that gives opportunities.

But in g6, the Warriors won, which made the situation in the Western Conference finals completely different.

This time in the Western Conference finals, the importance of g6 is too great.

So much so that at the post-game press conference after the game, Spurs coach Popovich broke a bit of defense.

"I hate basketball now, I hate the NBA now! I hate threes! Basketball is not supposed to be like this, everyone is shooting threes now, every team has to shoot threes, some people A game can make more than 10 three-pointers, and some teams can make more than 20 three-pointers in a game, which makes everything we pay for basketball seem so futile! Basketball, nba, three-pointers, I hate all of these!"

Popovich doesn't like three-pointers. In fact, many people know this. He also often expresses in public that he doesn't like three-pointers so much, that he doesn't like his team's three-pointers, and he doesn't like opponents' three-pointers.

However, this is definitely the first time that the emotion is so strong.

So much so that after Popovich's remarks came out, it caused an uproar in the United States and the NBA.

Some people think Bobo has no manners.

But many people also find it understandable.

After all, g6 is really amazing, Chen Xiao and Klay scored 21 three-pointers together!

Popovich said the three-pointers made all the Spurs' hard work, tactics, preparation, and performance in vain, and that's true.

Because everyone who has watched G6 knows that the Spurs are the tactically active side, the side that has the advantage, and logically speaking, the side that wins.

But the three-pointer wiped out the Spurs' advantage.

The basketball game seems to have become a game of luck because of the existence of three points.

And luck also made the stronger Popovich and the Spurs lose the game.

So, Popovich has reason to say that.

However, whether there is a reason or not, Popovich, as the coach of the three-time NBA champion, is also the top coach in active service, the head coach of the US team, it is indeed a bit bad to say such a thing.

Of course, Popovich also knew that he seemed to be a little gaffe, so the next day back in San Antonio, at the pre-game press conference before the start of g7, Popovich said that he hated basketball and hated it. nba, hate three points explained.

"We worked hard for 12 years to win the nba championship, the past two years, we have won two championships, which makes us have higher goals, we want to win the third consecutive championship this year. A championship, we are willing to give everything for it, we strive to do our best, the coach arranges training hard, arranges tactics, players train hard, play hard, we believe that as long as our players, Coaches, management, we just need to do our best and we can win our third straight championship.

but!

The last game made us feel that the current basketball, the current nba, is gradually not what we are familiar with. Even if we do our best, we will not be able to win a game with all three points, so, That game was so frustrating for me, and at that point, I felt like my whole worldview was falling apart.

In my basketball knowledge, basketball games should not be like this.

I'm so sorry that my inappropriate remarks may have had very bad consequences for basketball, but you should know that was not my intention.

I still love basketball, I still love the nba, I still respect **** Chen, Klay, the Warriors, who won a great victory. "

In the g6 battle, because Chen Xiao and Klay's performances were too miraculous, the entire NBA and American sports circles were talking about this game, Chen Xiao and Klay.

And in this atmosphere, the Western Finals G7 between the Warriors and the Spurs is about to begin.

In the regular season, the Spurs are the first in the Western Conference and the first in the league. Therefore, the location of the tiebreaker is in San Antonio.

The Spurs seem to have home field advantage, but in a high-intensity series like the Warriors and the Spurs, the home field advantage may not be able to make up for the Spurs' physical disadvantage.

After all, Duncan averaged 38 minutes per game in the first six games.

The last time Duncan averaged more than 38 minutes per game with the Spurs in the playoffs was before he left for the Magic.

As a 39-year-old veteran, I really don't know how to evaluate this playing time.

No matter how you evaluate it, there are only two words, that is respect!

For the Spurs' dynasty, and for his own dynasty, Duncan really fought hard for the Western Conference finals this time.

Of course, Ron Howard is also very hardworking. He is the player with the most points per game and the most minutes per game for the Spurs.

Duncan and Ron Howard were under a lot of pressure, especially after Leonard was beaten.

Therefore, the Spurs have home-court advantage, and the Warriors have the physical and youth advantage in the tiebreaker.

The objective advantages of the two sides are actually similar.

In terms of personnel, the Spurs have advantages in the tactical system and head coach, while the Warriors have Chen Xiao, the most powerful player in the league's history. The advantages and disadvantages of the two sides are still similar.

Therefore, in this tie-break, when many experts and fans predicted before the game, they were very conservative, thinking that either team could win.

In particular, both teams seem to be the kind of very big-hearted teams.

In the first quarter of the game, the two teams really showed their big hearts to the world.

The most worrying thing for the Spurs in this game is whether Duncan's state will have problems due to physical fitness.

But in the first quarter, Duncan reassured everyone.

In the first quarter of the game, as soon as Duncan came up, facing Jokic and Chen Xiao, he was full of firepower, and he pulled out to face the opposing defenders of Chen Xiao and the Warriors with a single shot.

In his best first quarter, Duncan made 4 of 6 and 1 of 1 free throws in a single quarter, scoring a Spurs-high 9 points in a single quarter.

Duncan, like last year's Finals, showed his attitude and determination as soon as he came up.

On the other side, what worries the Warriors most is naturally that Klay and Chen Xiao, who were hot in the last game, will lose their touch in this game.

But as soon as the first quarter came up, whether it was Chen Xiao or Klay, they both continued the fiery touch of the previous game.

In the first quarter, Chen Xiao scored 4 of 6 and 2 of 2 three-pointers, scoring 10 points in a single quarter.

And Klay, also 4 of 6, 2 of 4 three-pointers, also scored 10 points in a single quarter.

With the excellent performance of the two, facing the Spurs who shot 56.5% from the field and 50% of the three-pointers in the first quarter, the Warriors trailed by 28 to 30 in the first quarter.

By the way, in the first quarter of the game, Nongmei's offensive state was still bad, with 0 of 3 in the first quarter and not scoring a single point.

On the other hand, Leonard, who is facing the thick eyebrows, is not the main attack, and after treating himself as a role player, his catch-and-shoot shooting rate is still very high. He scored 2 of 2 in a single quarter and scored 4 points.

It seems that the thick eyebrows seem to be under a lot of pressure.

It seems that Leonard is accustomed to the change of his role again, while the thick eyebrows have not adapted.

It's just that I can't say too much for the time being. Leonard is still very efficient in the face of thick eyebrows, stealing chickens and attacking like a role player. However, Duncan's age is there, and his physical strength is also there, the Spurs, this game. Will the game only have Leonard as a role player on offense?

This is of course impossible, so the test for Leonard has yet to come.

The game continued, and the anxious atmosphere of the two teams came to the second quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, because of the protection of Duncan's physical strength and the team's temporary two-point advantage, Popovich naturally couldn't let Duncan play the full second quarter like Chen Xiao.

Without Duncan's rotation, the Spurs' rotation is certainly no match for the Warriors' rotation of Lopez, Ibaka, Chen Xiao, Livingston and Dragic.

Although Al Jefferson, Varejao, Ron Howard, Manu Ginobili, Parker's rotation lineup is also very strong, but after the second quarter, the Warriors still led by 4 points 29-25 in a single quarter.

In the second quarter, the Spurs, under Popovich's command, were desperately dragging the rhythm of the game in order to create more rest time for Duncan.

Otherwise, the Spurs will never lose only 4 points in a single quarter.

Of course, it was worth it for the Spurs to be just four points behind after giving Duncan five minutes to rest.

In the first quarter, they still led by 2 points. At the end of the half, the Spurs were only 2 points behind 55-57.

In the third quarter, Duncan and the Spurs were on fire again.

In particular, Duncan, Ron Howard and the three veterans of Maizi, Duncan made 3 of 5 in the third quarter and scored 6 points, Ron Howard scored 4 of 6 in a single quarter and scored 8 points, while Maizi was 5 in a single quarter. 3, got 7 points.

The three veterans combined for 21 points in the third quarter.

The three who took on the team's main attack finally led the Spurs 33-32 in the third quarter, leading the Warriors by 1 point in a single quarter again.

After three quarters, the Spurs at home were just 1 point behind 88-89.

Seriously, this result is not what the Spurs want to see.

Because, in the third quarter, Duncan, Wheat and Ron Howard played the whole quarter!

The performance of the three is excellent, and the performance of the Spurs' role players is also very good. The Spurs even shot 60% in a single quarter, and the Spurs cannot be asked for better.

But the Warriors on the opposite side are also very good. Klay made 3 of 4 three-pointers in a single quarter and scored 9 points in a single quarter, while Chen Xiao made 5 of 7 in a single quarter, 2 of 3 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws. Down 15 points.

Under the two very good performances, the Warriors, in the third quarter, still bit the Spurs.

And that's what makes Popovich the hardest.

Because of the existence of Chen Xiao, the Warriors' ability to bite their opponents is too strong!

The Spurs couldn't prevent Chen Xiao from playing inside.

Really, you can't expect Duncan and Dior to guard Chen Xiao in the paint.

And when Klay's three-point shot was accurate, Leonard couldn't defend Chen Xiao either.

This has led to a very headache for the Spurs. When Clay is right, Chen Xiao can bloom inside and out!

This kind of linkage between Chen Xiao and Klay makes the Spurs describe it as a pain in the ass.

Now in the fourth quarter, Chen Xiao appeared on the court as soon as he came up, ready to play the whole game.

The Spurs, who are still 1 point behind, do you want to follow or not?

Of course to follow!

Duncan and Ron Howard also stayed on the court as soon as the fourth quarter came up.

It can only be said that a choice like Popovich is a gamble, but it is also very successful.

In the fourth quarter of the rotation, with Duncan's 4-for-4 start in the fourth quarter, the Spurs quickly turned the score back.

With less than 6 minutes left in the game, the Spurs even took a 5-point lead, 107-102!

However, at this time, Popovich is hardly happy.

Because, Duncan chose visible tiredness.

Duncan has been unable to undertake the main attack, the main attack can only be changed to the hands of Ron Howard and Maizi.

In the fourth quarter, Maizi's shooting percentage changed from accurate in the third quarter to inaccurate. Maizi's offensive efficiency was unstable. Although he ignored the defense and shot beautifully, if he missed the shot, it would not work!

In the end, Popovich can only use Leonard!

And this is the biggest test for the Spurs and Leonard.

Leonard, at this time, must take the responsibility of the main attack and conquer the fortress that could not be conquered in the first two games.

In the first three quarters of this game, Leonard, who was a role player on the offensive end, did well, scoring 11 points on 4-of-6 in the first three quarters.

But when the role player and the main attacker, it's quite different defensive intensity.

When Ron Howard replaced Ginobili and Diaw replaced Parker, all Spurs players pinned their love on Leonard.

At this point the Spurs need to defend, but also need to attack!

However, Leonard, who had high hopes, once again disappointed the Spurs in this game.

In the fourth quarter, Leonard, who took on the main attack, scored 1 of 7 in a single quarter and only scored 2 points.

In this game, the thick eyebrows disappeared on the offensive end, and at the same time, he also let Leonard disappear with him once again.

The two of them started to pass g5, and it seemed that they were completely exchanged.

In the end, the Spurs led by up to 5 points in the fourth quarter and were eventually reversed by the Warriors at home, losing 121 to 125.

Although at the last moment, Popovich didn't want to defend Ginobili, and Ginobili did hit two consecutive three-pointers. However, the Spurs still returned Tired of days, we lost the tiebreaker.

Duncan, the Spurs' leader in the game, played 41 minutes and scored a game-high 29 points and 11 rebounds for the Spurs.

Ron Howard was 11 of 21 and scored 26 points.

In addition, Leonard scored 5 of 13 points and scored 13 points, Ginobili scored 6 of 12 points and scored 18 points, and Wheat scored 5 of 13 points and scored 12 points.

In this game, the Spurs scored five players in double figures, and the team shot 52% from the field and 40% from three-pointers.

On the opposite side of the Warriors, Chen Xiao scored 16 of 26, 8 of 14 three-pointers, 5 of 5 free throws, and scored 45 points in the game.

And Klay, this game is 14 of 25, 9 of 17 3-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, the whole game scored 40 points.

In this match, Chen Xiao and Klay were still in hot form.

And Chen Xiao and Klay also scored more than 85 points in two consecutive games.

Spurs g6 and g7, the biggest problem is that they can't solve the problem of Klay's casting accuracy, they can't stop Chen Xiao from blooming internally and externally.

And Clay, this guy, his three-pointers, there will always be a period of time when it is very unreasonable to make a lot of progress!

Therefore, at the end of the game, looking at the statistics, Chen Xiao and Klay scored another 17 three-pointers in this game. Popovich admitted that his eyes were red and he was sour.

Facing the broken dream of the dynasty, he was as heartless as he was and cried...
