NBA super point guard

Popovich was very satisfied with Duncan's attitude, so he made such a happy decision.

For Duncan in the next game, let Ginobili support it. With Tony Parker's cover, the Spurs' offensive level has dropped a bit, but again, they can improve their defensive strength while ensuring their shooting percentage.

Facing the opponent in the finals, regardless of the opponent's reputation, the preparation is the same.

On June 6, the second game of the finals.

The Knicks are still playing away against the Spurs.

In the routine interview before the game, the three veterans of GDP issued a victory declaration on behalf of the team.

Duncan:

"Yes, I don't think there is a reason for us to lose again. The Knicks are strong, but we are not weak. Mr. Pop has prepared for this game, and now we are very motivated. It has been a long time since this Feeling excited!"

Tony Parker:

"I am very happy to play against LI, because I can see the league's first-class point guard!"

Ginobili: "He grew up very fast, the speed is unbelievable. I regret that I didn't have a good communication with him at that time, which made us miss a perfect championship puzzle!"

MMP!

Li Muhua never expected that the Spurs would be so shameless that they would brag before the game. Is this an idea to make his subordinates show mercy.

When it was the Knicks' turn to be interviewed, Anthony took the lead in speaking:

"We were lucky to win the last game. We also learned a lesson in it and will work harder on the defensive end, because we let the Spurs get too many offensive opportunities. Again, defense can win the championship!"

Li Muhua: "I think Mr. Popovich is willing to offer me a maximum salary contract. If so, maybe I will consider joining San Antonio!"

It was just a tease before the game, and the reporters coaxed into laughter. Everyone knows that San Antonio is just a small market, and even Duncan is a little picky, let alone other players.

No one takes it seriously, but it can be used as a joke to spray Zhuge Weiqi.

Who told him it was okay to tease the reporter all the time.

The game officially begins.

The starting players from both sides came on the field, and the commentator who got the list in advance almost made a mistake, because there was no Stoudemire in the starting list, and the habitual power forward's name was mispronounced.

Knicks starters: Anthony, Li Muhua, Chandler, Copeland, Thomas.

If you consider the inside defense, Chandler and Thomas are equivalent to twin towers, an absolute no-fly zone.But conversely, the perimeter defense of this lineup is relatively weak, and the focus of offense is on the perimeter instead.

Mike Brin was rather surprised:

"I've commented on so many Knicks games. I'm sure this is the first time I've seen this lineup. It seems that the Knicks plan to strengthen the interior defense. I don't understand it. Tony Parker seems to be the core of the Spurs!"

Jeff Van Gundy: "In fact, if we carefully observe the player status of the Knicks, we can understand the meaning of such formation. Driven by LI, there can be three players posing threats on the outside. It is undeniable that this Easy to open up space!"

"Could Chandler be the main insider?"

"It's unlikely, we all know that boxing champions don't have a strong desire to attack!"

"Counting on outside firepower? The Knicks wouldn't be so simple, would they?"

"I have to say, Jeff, those of you who have been coaches always think differently than others!"

Jeff Van Gundy thinks this change is not good, because the big center Chandler has no offensive ability at all, but Mike Breen doesn't think so.

They haven't discussed the result yet, the game has already started.

The Spurs have not made lineup changes, and Tony Parker, Duncan, Leonard, Thiago, and Danny Green are still the starters.

Thiago jumped the ball, this floor player is not even as good as DeJuan Blair, I don't understand why Popovich let him start.

Chandler easily won the opening ball and gave the racket to Li Muhua.

Tony Parker wanted to step forward to interfere, Li Muhua dribbled the ball behind his back, and Tony Parker immediately retreated to the backcourt, knowing that it would be pointless to continue pestering.

The Spurs pay attention to half-court marking. If there is a steal and miss, the old man will definitely be sprayed to death on the sidelines.

Li Muhua quickly advanced to the front court. As usual, the fourth position came up to pick and roll. Thomas came to the high position. Li Muhua did not move, but waited for Copeland to move.

Copeland ran to the flank, and Li Muhua bypassed Thomas and went straight to the middle.

Duncan misplaced the defense, and Li Muhua made an emergency stop for a jumper. Before he could make a shot, Duncan jumped up to defend, and Anthony, who was on the outside, came to the other side of the rebound.

Li Muhua turned his wrist and passed the ball.

Anthony made a mid-range fadeaway jumper from a zero-degree angle.

Copeland blocked Leonard on the roll.

With an open opportunity, Anthony scored the ball very easily.

The Spurs attack.

Duncan holds the ball, and Thomas blocks Duncan hard.Compared with Stoudemire, Thomas's size is not necessarily so strong, but he is willing to defend with his heart, but he can't hold back Duncan's more sophisticated, and he is about to layup when he throws off Thomas, and Chandler is in front.

Tony Parker appeared on the outside, and Duncan saw that he attracted the defense and threw the ball out.

Yes, no one guards Tony Parker at all.

Li Muhua also squeezed into the middle distance for double-teaming.

Hurry back and jump up to interfere.

Unexpectedly, Tony Parker made a shocking move. When Li Muhua took off, Tony Parker took the opportunity to break through, and then passed the ball to Duncan in the crowd. Duncan dunked with one hand under the basket.

Having given up the position under the basket, no one can stop Duncan.

Duncan also easily succeeded.

Although there are two defensive champions in the penalty area, only the impact of Tony Parker will inevitably attract some defensive energy, and at this time, Duncan has an opportunity.

This is helpless, unless Tony Parker is completely restricted, but that is impossible.

The Knicks attack.

Copeland came to the bottom corner with the help of a screen, Li Muhua broke through to the middle, Copeland cut directly, attracted Danny Green, and then stepped back for a jumper again, and threw the ball from the bottom corner.

It's a pity to hit the iron directly.

Duncan took the rebound and handed it to Tony Parker.

Tony Parker didn't hit the ball. Instead, he played a pick-and-roll with Duncan. Duncan held the ball in a high position and quickly passed it to the wing. Danny Green broke through again.

With Duncan's screen, Tony Parker returned to the perimeter, and Danny Green passed the ball.

Tony Parker made a direct three-pointer.

The same goes for iron.

Normally, the Spurs' perimeter level can reach more than [-]%, and when it's good, it can reach [-]% shooting. It's just a trial shot at the beginning, and no one cares.

Thomas grabbed the rebound and wasn't in a hurry.

Did not let the Spurs find an opportunity to steal the ball.

Li Muhua stepped forward to catch the ball.

Coming to the frontcourt, Li Muhua handed the ball to Anthony to start running. Anthony made a three-point threat from outside the three-point line. After a few trials, he directly pulled up and scored the ball against Leonard.

The Knicks scored the first three-pointer of the game.
