Yang Shuai dribbled the ball forward and ran forward. There were no defensive players beside him. Ginobili and Jefferson rushed forward, but there were Evans and Hinrich beside them.
With a three-on-two frontcourt, the Warriors will not let go of such an opportunity easily.
When Yang Shuai rushed across the half court, Ginobili had already begun to slowly leave Evans and approached Yang Shuai. Jefferson was busy retreating to the basket to distance himself from Hinrich in order to get in front of Yang Shuai.
Cover up Evans
Seeing that Ginobili was about to rush forward, Yang Shuai pushed forward hard with his right hand, and the ball flew towards Evans. Yang Shuai was already fast enough, but his pass was even faster. He saw the ball right in front of him.
Not far away, Jefferson took a step forward to intercept, but the ball had already flown in front of him, and he therefore lost the opportunity to defend Evans.
"Bang!" Taking the basketball from Yang Shuai, Evans strode forward and dunked easily.
At 0:8, after the opening game, the Warriors hit an 8-0 run, and the Oracle Arena was already cheering.
"Tony, give the ball to Tim!" On the sidelines, although Vicki did not call a timeout, he stood up and shouted towards the court. The three attacks after the opening were all launched from Parker, but in
Under Yang Shuai's defense, Parker's handling of these three offenses could not satisfy **Vic.
Parker didn't hear **Vic's shouting, but after staying under **Vic for such a long time, he could still understand the coach's gestures. The Spurs are one of the teams with the strongest execution ability in the league, although Parker is very
He wanted to complete an attack in Yang Shuai's defense, but at this time he still chose to hand the ball to Duncan.
After receiving the ball in the mid-range, Duncan raised his hand and made a shooting fake, then immediately leaned on Chandler and rushed to the basket. From the perspective of Duncan's size, his strength does not seem to be strong, but in fact his strength is not as strong as
Compared with muscular men such as Stoudemire and Howard, even if he is pushing forward against Chandler, he can still control his center of gravity very well.
After rushing into the three-second zone, Duncan raised his lowered head. At the same time, he grabbed the ball with his right hand and hooked the ball lightly towards the basket. The basketball bounced lightly on the basket and then fell into the basket.
In the basket, hit.
Although Duncan hit the ball to break the Spurs' deadlock, it did not change the situation where the Spurs were suppressed on the court. As the offensive engine of the Spurs in the first two games, Parker was completely frozen by Yang Shuai after the start. The Spurs' offense on the court
Rely more on the Spurs' support in the high post.
It is undeniable that Duncan's support will indeed bring some opportunities to the Spurs' offense, but without Parker's breakthrough and attack, the Spurs' offense will lack many changes.
Five minutes into the first quarter, **Vicci sent Ginobili on. It was precisely because of Ginobili's appearance that the points difference that had continued to widen stabilized.
At 21:31, after the first quarter, the Warriors led by 10 points.
"Hey, Kenny, I've said before that Warriors fans won't be disappointed in this game. Look, they can match the Spurs even on the bench." Barkley said with a proud look on his face. As Yang Shuai,
An idiot fan, Barkley's face obviously made the other fans want to punch him in the face.
But Barkley was right. The Warriors players were in very good shape today, and even the bench players led by Evans were on par with Ginobili's Spurs bench.
At 36:45, the game was already halfway through the second quarter, and the Warriors still had a 9-point advantage. In the middle of the quarter, although the Spurs once narrowed the point difference to 6 points, more often the point difference was between 8 and 12 points.
Wandering between points.
Parker dribbled the ball outside the three-point line. Today he played extremely frustrated. He has only scored 2 points since the beginning. Before he experienced Yang Shuai's defense in person, he never imagined that it would be so strong, regardless of hand.
Whether there is a ball or not, Yang Shuai always follows him closely, never giving him a chance.
At the beginning, Parker couldn't find any offensive opportunities due to Yang Shuai's close defense. When he finally got one or two offensive opportunities, he found that he had no shooting touch.
Dribbling slowly outside the three-point line, Parker tried to rush to the left, but he suddenly changed direction and rushed to the right.
"Porphy!" The ensuing resistance made Parker feel helpless in his heart. Seeing Ginobili throw away Evans and rush to the basket, Parker no longer hesitated and immediately passed the ball to Ginobili.
In the hands of Nobili.
Evans was unable to stop Ginobili, so Chandler had to abandon Duncan and go inside to cover up the defense. Yang Shuai also quickly approached Duncan at this time. Ginobili, who was breaking through, saw Chandler covering up the defense.
Then he pushed the ball directly to Duncan.
After passing the ball, Duncan did not take a direct shot after receiving the ball. He passed the ball, and the target was Parker, who was vacated because of Yang Shuai's departure. At this time, Parker was cutting towards the basket.
After receiving a pass from Duncan, Parker quickly dribbled towards the basket and took off against Chandler who was under the basket for a layup.
"Beep!" Parker jumped up and collided with Chandler. The referee's whistle sounded, and Parker also threw the ball at this time.
"Bang!" The basketball bounced off the backboard, bounced back and forth on the rim, and fell into the basket. Seeing this, Parker, who was still lying on the ground, immediately jumped up, pumping his fists and shouting excitedly.
No wonder he was so excited, this was the first goal he scored today, and it was 2+1.
Parker's extra free throw also hit. At 39:45, the point difference between the two teams was narrowed to 6 points again. At this time, the Warriors' offense failed to score. Evans broke through and passed the ball to Chandler. This was supposed to be
A very good opportunity, but Chandler failed to put the layup under the basket, and Duncan grabbed the backboard.
Yang Shuai continued to block Parker, a full step away from the opponent. He was not afraid of the opponent's shooting. Putting aside Parker's shooting ability, the opponent's touch today was not enough to pose a threat.
Quickly stepping out with his right foot, Parker wanted to rush to the right, and Yang Shuai quickly moved to this side at this time. At this time, Yang Shuai saw Parker change direction and rush to the left.
Moving his steps sideways, Yang Shuai suddenly saw a figure flashing beside him out of the corner of his eye.
Taking a step back sideways and then moving quickly laterally, Yang Shuai avoided Duncan who was setting up the pick-and-roll, and came to Parker's side again.
"Porphyry!" Parker accelerated and took a step forward. He thought he would be able to rush directly past Yang Shuai, but the resistance from the front told him that his thinking was too simple.
"What a nasty guy!" Parker really couldn't imagine that there were people with such speed on this earth. He rushed forward and the opponent retreated, but Yang Shuai's speed was still not inferior to his own under such circumstances.
Blocking Parker's forward momentum, Yang Shuai did not relax. The power of his body burst out on the opponent. He blocked all the opponent's routes. At this time, Parker only had two options, passing the ball or turning back.
outside line.
Looking up at Ginobili on the outside, Parker reluctantly passed the ball, and the excitement caused by the goal in that round also left his body.
After receiving the pass, Ginobili failed to find an offensive opportunity immediately. When there were only 6 seconds left in the attack time, Ginobili could only choose to break through. But at this moment,
Evans' hand suddenly took out the ball from Ginobili's hand, and the ball in Ginobili's hand was caught off guard and Evans poked it away.
What a man, Ginobili reacted quickly and blocked Evans behind him, then turned around and rushed out to retrieve the ball, but in this way, there was not much time left to attack.
Taking off to shoot, Ginobili had no choice at this time. Facing Evans' defense, Ginobili took a step outside the three-point line and took a fadeaway shot.
"Bang!" The basketball quickly ran to the inside, hit the middle of the backboard, rebounded, and fell into the basket.
"Hell!" Seeing this goal, Yang Shuai muttered directly. This time, his side had done a good enough job in defending, but the opponent's dribbling seemed to be too good, and he actually hit a buzzer-beater.
Three points.
I have to say that the Warriors did not seem to be as lucky as their opponent in this period. The Spurs here could score a difficult three-pointer, but at the other end, Yang Shuai's mid-range shot hit the inside of the basket and was about to fall into the basket.
Then it rolled out again.
Parker dribbled the ball across half the court and handed it to Duncan in the mid-range. After receiving the ball and observing for a while, Duncan suddenly shot. Chandler raised his hand to interfere, but was unable to complete the defense. After the basketball hit the backboard
The rebound fell into the basket. Duncan's signature move, hitting the board at a 45-degree angle.
"Beep!" The Warriors called a timeout. At 44:45, the two teams were only 1 point apart.
The Oracle scene was also a little chaotic because the Spurs were closing in on the score difference. Maybe they didn't notice it themselves, but falling behind 0:2 still made Warriors fans worried. When the Warriors were playing smoothly, such worries were not too big.
If a certain situation is not good for the Warriors, the fans will become impatient.
This mentality may not belong to the fans. It is precisely because of such worries that Nelson called a timeout in time. He understood that if the situation was not stabilized as soon as possible, it would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous for the Warriors.
After the timeout, he returned to the court. Yang Shuai blocked Jefferson on the baseline and took the initiative to pass the ball. How could he not be clear about the situation on the court?
Yang Shuai caught the ball, and Duncan immediately stepped forward to double-team him. Chandler did not pass the ball to the basket, but leaned towards Jefferson. Yang Shuai turned around and jumped up.
Keeping his body leaning back to distance himself from the two people in front of him, Yang Shuai shook his wrist and threw the ball.
"Whoa!" When Yang Shuai lost his balance and fell to the ground, a crisp friction sound sounded, two-point goal, in!
"Coax!" A goal that was not very exciting for Yang Shuai, but there was a burst of cheers at the scene. Many Warriors fans laughed happily in their hearts. Want to overtake? No way!
