NBA restricted area bulldozer

Chapter 375 Let's... let us go!

The first quarter was tied at 28:28.

At 26:22 in the second quarter, 4 points behind.

At 24:20 in the third quarter, they fell behind by 4 points.

From the scores in each quarter alone, it can be seen that the defensive strength of both sides has increased, and the current disadvantaged situation of the Mavericks cannot be recovered by tactical arrangements.

If you want to defend the Spurs' offense, Li Shengli cannot be pulled too far out of the penalty area, otherwise... let alone Rodman's control of the rebound, the Spurs' charge alone is enough for the Mavericks to drink a pot, and assuming Robinson's mid-range shot cannot be restricted if he does not leave the penalty area.

There is no way to compromise between the two, only one can be taken!

However, the efficiency of the Spurs is not abnormal. What really bites the Mavericks is Erluo's encirclement and suppression of Li Shengli, plus the active defense of all members. If they are behind by 8 points, if they want to recover, the Mavericks must have someone other than Li Shengli. The perfect firepower point outside.

Curry?

It can be, but the Spurs focus on taking care of him. After playing 30+ minutes, it is difficult to play a tailwind.

Kidd?

I also played for 30+ minutes, but my physical problems caused me to run significantly slower, and I was not good at offense.

Who else can I fight?

Head coach Motta unexpectedly asked Crotty to stand up to Kidd and participate in the final battle, and Li Shengli also nodded at this point, because Crotty is currently the most suitable candidate when he is behind by 8 points, even if he is heavily defensive Weak attack, but also has a certain long-range killing ability, and can form an offensive backcourt with Curry.

……

So the Mavericks made a big substitution in the fourth quarter.

Li Shengli and Curry are still there, Crotty is on Kidd, Smith is on Wingate, and substitute George McLeod is on Jones, and the game just started... The Spurs' defense still chooses to double-team, and Li Shengli passes it along. Crotty executes the shot.

He hit the iron from outside the three-point line, and the rebound was too far away, and was caught by Rodman. He successfully played a wave of fast breaks, and the point difference reached 10 points.

The second time was Crotty's shot, still hitting the iron, Li Shengli grabbed the rebound and played a second attack.

What happened?

Crotty felt terribly cold!

After hitting the iron four times in a row, Mota on the sidelines turned pale and suffocated.

Even though Crotty later turned to create opportunities for Curry and scored a few goals, and the defense suppressed the Spurs' outside firepower, Motta still became more and more angry with Crotty, and immediately called a timeout. With 7 minutes left, the team trailed by 14 points.

"Li, listen, I'm useless at the center position. You have to hold me back. The offense will fall directly to the bottom of the penalty area. Now there's no need to drag the Spurs' defense. It's too late. Stabilize our rebound first." Motta was a little anxious.

"Kidd, you go up, Crotty down, and Curry, hold on for a while. If Lee has an offensive rebound, but there is no chance under the basket, I need you to digest the offensive rebound!"

"McLeod, don't lean towards the basket, just stand on the left half corner, don't worry about your opponent rushing into the penalty area, and you Smith, you run on your horse, pull Rodman away, I want to see the penalty area Only Lee and Robinson are inside!"

"There is no time, remember what I just said. Bring up the rhythm, we can't delay!"

This is a moment.

The original tactic of using Li Shengli to pull the Spurs' defense was retired, and all Mota could think of was to clear the penalty area on the offensive end... The first round was shooting, scoring, and missing rebounds for Li Shengli; the second round was Li Shengli using offensive rebounds Opportunity to single David Robinson, but this time will be very short, Rodman is the biggest spoiler.

It was too difficult and too risky!

This arrangement is almost demanding on Li Shengli's implementation!

The first round of shooting from the outside is nothing, since they are looking for opportunities to shoot anyway, and when the first round fails and the second round... Li Shengli's task is not only offensive rebounds, but also a second attack in a short period of time, otherwise he will It can only be assigned to take another adventure outside.

……

Back on the court, the 14-point lead gave the Spurs a psychological advantage, with a smile on their faces.

The Mavericks attacked for the first time, Li Shengli cut straight to the basket, the ball was shot by Curry, and directly hit a three-pointer, and when he returned to the defense... Kidd intercepted a pass from Pooh, and the fast break was No chance, after steadily pushing to the frontcourt, Curry made a shot and scored another three-pointer.

what happened?

The Spurs collectively froze for a moment.

Instead, David Robinson yelled at Pooh, who was marking Curry, and signaled to strengthen the defense.

……

Two consecutive three-pointers?

Curry felt that he had taken aphrodisiacs, and Kidd saw that Curry had taken aphrodisiacs. He had no reason to be soft, so he simply withstood the rush to the inside, and with a dodge, Avery slipped away. After reaching the three-point line next to Curry and Pooh, he made a shot.

He intended to force Pooh to defend him and create opportunities for Curry, who was feeling hot, but Pooh seemed to despise him... sticking to Curry.

look down on people?

I make you look down on people!

Swish!

Kidd made a willful shot, still made a three-pointer, and still scored, but the entire Spurs were immediately stunned. Bob Hill immediately called a timeout. After all, it only lasted more than a minute. A 1:9 was played, chasing half of the point difference.

……

After the timeout, the Spurs' perimeter defense was called out by the head coach. It has indeed improved a bit. Curry's shooting is finally not so smooth, but the problem is... the Mavericks' rebounds, the Spurs can't defend it?

How can you not keep it?

Bob Hill couldn't believe it, Robinson + Rodman couldn't even keep the backcourt rebounds, Robinson didn't say anything, but you Rodman don't rely on this for a living, what have you been doing?

In fact, it’s really not Rodman’s fault, because as long as Curry makes a move, Kidd will run to scold Rodman, completely letting go of himself, but Rodman’s violent temper cannot be restrained. Run and spray.

Poor treatment in the Spurs, no one to help with cursing?

He wanted to bring Kidd over to beat him up, but he was afraid of the suspension, and he was afraid of losing his money. What's more, when the fight really broke out, the Spurs had no one to help him, but Li Shengli would definitely fuck him. He was convinced of this. And the little troll-Kidd successfully 'contained' Rodman, which was more effective than Smith, and gave Li Shengli the greatest boost.

……

How could this be?

Robinson had a hard time understanding why things had changed so quickly.

You know, when any super center reaches the basket, no one at the same level dares to say that he can defend 100%. Grab a [-]-[-] split and attack crazily under the basket.

As for the Mavericks as a whole, they are just...crazy!

Curry, a face-to-face shooter, shot a three-pointer; Kidd, who let himself go, ran to scold the street;

4 minutes tied!

Go-ahead in 5 minutes!

The Spurs were defeated throughout the fourth quarter. It is estimated that there is no way to describe this situation. The number of mistakes is terrible, and the point difference in the last minute was locked at 1 points. It was completed... 4 minutes and 7 chases points for the 'feat'.

……

Li Shengli scored 34 points, 20 rebounds, 10 assists, and 9 blocks. He was a quasi-quadruple-double. His scoring in the second half did decrease, but his assists from splitting the ball increased sharply.

Kidd had already scored a triple-double in 30 minutes, with 18 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists. It is really easy for a guy with rebounding ability to think of a triple-double. Well, then his chances are very high, so he once felt that following Li Shengli would be rewarding.

As for Curry... In the final quarter, he followed Li Shengli like an old scalper. He made 10 of 7 three-pointers in the game, reaching 70% of his terrifying hits. Although it was a single game, it can be seen that he is born to love shooting.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the arena is a bit explosive, and the uniform roar of tens of thousands of people is extremely shocking, because the Dallas Mavericks have never been so elated, and more often they play the role of the Spurs in this game role, and on the Spurs side, David Robinson really... wants to cry!
