If there is a player who does not foul on the field, he will definitely be sprayed to death by the head coach when he turns around, saying that he did not defend.

As long as the attitude is correct, there is no foul on the basketball court.

The Spurs' strategy of using Ginobili to play the sixth man in the substitute stage is to grab points. The whole system will revolve around Ginobili. Even if the tactics are replaced, the core of the game is still Ginobili. profit-oriented.

Li Muhua has never encountered such a good thing to let go of his hands to attack, but it is just that he can throw a few three-pointers casually.

The free throw came back and the Thunder attacked.

Li Muhua didn't intend to play the ball himself, and threw it directly to Green. The Spurs implemented a single defense in the high position. In this case, the role of the guard is not so important.

Of course, apart from chattering, no one would continue to fight hard in this situation.

Green handed the ball to Krstic, and Duncan assisted in the defense, but Krstic made a time difference and scored with cricket.

The Thunder made a lot of tactical adjustments, including core players supporting the inside line in high positions.

At the end of the second quarter, Ginobili had already made 4 of 0 shots, and his whole face was blue when he left the field.

Thunder players performed well, Brooks praised everyone in the locker room, and then went out to find a place
smokes.

The players in the locker room didn't say much, and the main players squinted their eyes to rest and recover their physical strength.

"LI, you can vote more in the next quarter!"

Green moved to Li Muhua's side, speaking hesitantly.

"Jeff, you should take more shots!"

"No, I want you to open up the space, or I'm having a little difficulty in attacking here."

Green was a little embarrassed and scratched his head.

Li Muhua now understood that Green didn't give up the ball, but was turned into a dog by Bogans.

After Uncle Bao retired, the Spurs hired Bogans to defend the third and fourth positions. He defended against anyone who was strong. The level of defense was very high.

Durant can't take advantage of Bogans, and neither can Green.

In Li Muhua's view, Bogans' defense may be more terrifying than Uncle Bao's. When Durant is not on the court, Green becomes the first choice.

But the Thunder's isolation is unique.

How should I put it, when it comes to singles efficiency, even the single-handed chatter is willing to bow down, and the Thunder's XJBD is the best in the league.

Come back from the break, and the third quarter begins.

The Thunder's lineup was rotated, and almost all the starters played, with Li Muhua leading the rhythm.

The situation of the game has completely turned to the Thunder.

No matter how strong the Spurs' defense is, they have to rely on Duncan on the inside and Bogans on the outside, but when Durant plays, the Spurs' defense is precarious, either Durant singles or Westbrook singles.

As a result, when the defense line was shrinking, Li Muhua used a pass to tear the defense line apart.

Yes, the tactics are as simple as that, but the Spurs just can't help it.

Krstic's slow pace is one aspect, and he is very good at dealing with Duncan. Duncan likes to hit the board at a 45-degree angle outside the penalty area. Krstic squeezes people into the distance. Li Muhua is speechless, and Duncan can shoot.

Oddly enough, Duncan's shooting percentage has dropped.

Li Muhua's partner Westbrook played Parker crazy in the backcourt. The Thunder attacked, and Li Muhua used Westbrook's cover to directly throw a three-pointer.

Bogans is powerless, and he can't guard against that.

Duncan is getting old and doesn't like running. He couldn't stand the Thunder and the youngsters who were able to run. After a few rounds, they were all walked with dogs.

After hitting a three-pointer, Parker also chose to play singles. Li Muhua was pulled away after chasing and defending, and Parker made a layup.

Li Muhua wanted to paddle a little. After halftime, he threw the ball to Westbrook and started playing without the ball again.

Westbrook was honest, he resisted Parker and began to sit inside step by step, which was very painful.

This is the crushing brought by talent.

Li Muhua ran to the top of the arc, Bogans was blocked by Green, Westbrook's pass flew over, and Li Muhua shot again.

Another three-point hit.

The rhythm of the two sides suddenly accelerated, and the Spurs attacked.

Parker sent the ball to the inside, Duncan singled Krstic, and after being double-teamed, he threw it to Ginobili on the outside.

It was Li Muhua's missed defense, and Ginobili made an open shot.

"Boom!"

Smashing the frame and hitting the iron, Durant grabbed the rebound and threw it to Westbrook.

Thunder's fast break.

Westbrook's speed was so fast that the Spurs had no time to retreat and had no choice but to give up.

Ginobili's touch has suffered from a cold winter, and he has no friends. According to the current data, he has made 7 of 0 shots.

In desperation, Yaodao could only choose to break through, causing damage to the inside line of the Thunder and getting free throws.

Before the game, Brooks had already explained that he would let the Spurs break through and use physical exertion to torture the three elders of GDP.

Yes, the Thunder's tactics are very clear. The offensive end is singles, and the defensive end does not prevent shots.

However, he couldn't prevent Ginobili's serpentine step, so he simply didn't bother to defend against the breakthrough.

Off the ball, Li Muhua and Green's dazzling running positions confused Bogans. He didn't know who to defend, so he chose Li Muhua.

Green gets a ton of shots.

The score gradually opened up, and at the end of the third quarter, the Thunder beat their opponents by 11 points in a single quarter.

The Spurs chose to surrender and replaced the substitute directly in the fourth quarter.

It is mainly related to the recent recovery of Parker and Duncan.

Durant scored a game-high 25 points, Green scored a double-double with 21 points and 10 rebounds, Westbrook scored 19 points and 5 assists, and Li Muhua finally scored 8 points and 7 assists.

If it weren't for Ginobili's undercover behavior of 9 for 0 shots, the Thunder might have to fight until the fourth quarter.
Harden scored 6 of 3 in this game. As a substitute, he is already considered competent.

After the game, Brooks accepted an interview with ESPN:
"The Spurs are very strong, especially in terms of experience. The Thunder have a lot to learn, and Tim has just recovered from his injury. We took advantage of this game!"

"From a tactical point of view, Mr. Popovich is respectable. If we hadn't relied on our physical strength, we might have lost!"

Brooks is very talkative, and directly attributed the win to the bad luck of the Spurs.

Li Muhua saw Popovich's beard twitching, until when Popovich was interviewed, the expression on his face seemed to be stabbed:
"Yes, we lost. There is nothing to say. The Thunder are too strong. I can't imagine that they have so many amazingly talented players. I must trade Manu. His hand was caught by the door. People are speechless!"

Popovich teased the reporter again, but the look on his face was serious.
