The Kings sent Brad Miller, Kenny Thomas, Ron Artest, Wells, Michael Bibby's regular starting lineup, and Kevin Martin returned to the bench lineup. Except for Stephen being replaced by Bruce Bowen, there are no other changes.

Back at their own home court, the Kings' fighting spirit and desire to win are much stronger than at the Spurs' home court, but the Spurs have been unable to enter the state for a long time, especially Artest and Wells. There are so many offensive players, Bruce Bowen alone can't handle it.

When no one can stand up, it is when Duncan stands up. It is not Duncan who suddenly shows his power and uses his best hitting board to score six points in a row. The Spurs have long been opened up by the Kings. By the end of the first quarter, the Spurs were still two points behind.

The difference of two points is nothing, but looking at the score of the Spurs, they only scored [-] points after the first quarter. This situation has not happened in many games. When this happens, the opponent is a poor defensive team like the Kings , But imagined that the Spurs' offense really went wrong.

In the final analysis, it was the Spurs who had to deal with the Kings too hard. At the same time, they did not expect the offense of the Kings to be so crazy. At the same time, the enthusiasm of the Kings' individual defense has also increased a lot. Didn't think of it in advance.

In the second quarter, the Spurs began to use the bench lineup, and at this time the Kings also replaced Kevin Martin, Sharif Rahim, and Kenny Thomas and Artest. Unlike the Spurs, the Kings' There are only eight people in the regular rotation lineup. Except for the starting five and Kevin Martin and Sharif Rahim, there is only one Stephen's rookie of the same year, Francisco Garcia.

Stephen formed a complete bench lineup with Ginobili, Van Exel, Robert Horry, and Nesterovic. At the same time, Brent Barry, Udic and Oberto were also sitting on the bench. There is no problem with these players being the starters. It is conceivable how strong the Spurs' bench is.

In the playoffs, Udic hadn't gotten a minute of playing time yet, while Oberto played two games and only played less than 1 minutes. Brent Barry was trusted by Popovich As a substitute player, he can perform as long as he plays, and his touch does not decline due to the reduction of playing time. This is what makes Popovich most satisfied, but his age is a problem. Compared with Ginobili, it is slightly worse, so he has very little playing time.

After coming to the court, he played the familiar substitute lineup again. Stephen's performance was not affected by Popovich's transfer. In terms of defense, Ginobili took over Kevin Martin's defense and put Wells Give it to Stephen, so that they can play their respective characteristics.

The Spurs' all-substitute lineup played against the Kings' half-main and half-substitute lineup, and they played even better than the starting lineup. They quickly overtook the previous score, and they still had an absolute advantage on the scene, especially Wells. In the first half, he played whatever he wanted, but when he met Stephen, his good days came to an end. Several consecutive attacks were either blocked by Stephen or blocked by Stephen.

However, this guy is not yet sensible, and still blindly attacks Stephen. Stephen will never be polite to this kind of person who has been taught a lesson and still does not repent. When Wells intends to confront Stephen hard, Stephen Fanned him to the ground.

"Dong Qiang, why is this Stephen so ruthless? Isn't he a foul? He won't be punished?" Since it was a close row of seats, Dong Zhixin could see it clearly, even with the smile and smile on Stephen's face. The ferocious mixed expressions were very clear. He never imagined that Stephen, who was so gentle off the court, would be so fierce on the court. Just like that, the referee didn't even care about knocking them down.

"He went towards the ball. This is not a foul. You have to be more aggressive when you are on the field, otherwise your defense will be feared by no one." Dong Qiang looked at Stephen with admiration, and explained to his grandfather At this time, Kempelback sat there and watched without knowing. They never thought that they could sit so close to watch a professional basketball game, which was impossible in their dreams.

"I always feel a little worried. What if I get injured? My child, I just watch basketball for fun. Don't take it as a career." Dong Zhixin still looked worried, and even thought about his grandson's arrival. On a court like this, if you were knocked down to the ground like this, then you should be so worried.

"Don't worry, Grandpa, with my body, I can't play professional basketball at all. Ken is not too bad." Dong Qiang smiled, seeing professional basketball games up close, Dong Qiang has long since lost confidence in being a professional player. With my own thin body, I am not qualified to play such a match. I am afraid that if someone touches me, I will fly.

"It's just that my skills are too poor. It seems that I have to practice hard." Kenpoback pouted and said beside him. His body is very strong, but his basketball skills are too poor. There is no comparison at all, but Dong Qiang's body is so poor that he is dead. In their stadium, Dong Qiang has a nickname called "falling when you touch it."

"Okay, I also want to exercise my body well, but I will be in charge of your training in the future, and I will definitely teach you all my skills." Dong Qiang said excitedly beside him.

Stephen naturally didn't know that after he gave them the tickets, the two of them watched the game up close and went on different development paths. Dong Qiang would become a well-known personal trainer in the league in the future, while Kempelback would grow up in the future. As a representative of inside players from the United States, he has won rebounds and blocked shots for four consecutive seasons, and won three best defensive players.

The action of overturning Wells earned Stephen a foul, but probably due to the influence of Stephen on one side, Wells missed two free throws in a row. On the last free throw, Stephen stood up and took the rebound lightly into his arms. Then he launched a three-line fast break with Van Exel and Ginobili. Under the defense of Melfin Bibby and Kevin Martin, Stephen broke through from the middle and jumped into the air. Ginobili directly threw the ball Throwing it into Stephen's hands, all Stephen had to do was to smash it down hard.

Michael Bibby dodged early on, and Kevin Martin was still inexperienced, so he was a little slow to dodge, and was led by Stephen from the side, directly leading him into the air, and flew into the crowd of photographers , I don’t know how many photographic equipment were smashed.

The referee also ran over and gave Kevin Martin a foul, and Stephen had to add another penalty. The audience stood up and booed the referee and Stephen. Dong Qiang and Kempelback just stood up and dunked for Stephen. Cheering, I saw everyone standing up and booing wildly, they were immediately scared by Dong Zhixin and they sat down.

However, after this dunk, Stephen suddenly fell into a scoring drought. At this time, Michael Bibby started to score two consecutive three-pointers, making Van Exel two fouls, one plus one, and the Spurs just relied on Robert Horry's three-pointer and Ginobili's breakthrough maintained the game. At the end of the second quarter, compared with the first quarter, they lost four more points. They scored 21 points in a single quarter, scoring more than the starters. One point, but let the opponent get three more points.

During the intermission, Popovich's face was extremely ugly. Although he was prepared to lose in his heart, it didn't mean that he was willing to see the team have nothing to do with the opponent on both ends of the offense and defense. He wanted to This game allowed some players to look for their status and let some players take a good rest, but when the loss was really possible, it still made him unacceptable, especially this kind of player still seemed to lose after working hard.

But the main bench lineup is not as good as others, which made Popovich have nowhere to vent his anger. In addition, he was already prepared to lose in his heart, so he didn't say much. If you lose, you lose. As long as you lose It can make these guys get back their spirits, and they will lose every game they lose.

In the second half, the Spurs still had their entire bench lineup on the field, while the Kings replaced Kevin Martin with Artest and Wells with Francisco García. Jason Hart, Vitali Potapanko, Ronnie Price, Jamal Sampson, but Adelaide still keeps Brad Miller and Michael Bibby on the court .

From the beginning of the game to the present, the two of them have not had a one-minute break, but Adelman is like this. If he trusts or relies on anyone, he will let him stay on the court for a long time. Even if he rests after the game, it is still a game As soon as the situation changed, he quickly sent people up again, and all the early injuries of Chris Webber are said to have a lot to do with his way of employing people. He will definitely not cherish his own star.

In his peak years, Chris Webber averaged about 10 minutes per game every year. You must know that he is not a defender under two meters. He is a big inside player with an average of nearly 10 minutes per game. The time is a bit too much for a big man who is 250 meters and weighs [-] pounds.

Of course, no one has direct evidence for this kind of thing, but seeing that Michael Bibby and Brad Miller have not stopped for a minute from the beginning to the present, this kind of rotation is a bit unreasonable, but even so, the Spurs The team also failed to take advantage of each other, and the two sides are still playing evenly.

Finally, Adelman put Kenny Tonys on and replaced Brad Miller, but Michael Bibby still stayed on the court, because he is the king's most threatening player to the Spurs. , The Spurs' bench lineup finally got back three points. In the third quarter alone, Stephen scored eleven points. With the second quarter's score, he was replaced by Popovich just after scoring [-] points. Off the field.
