Marion's foul was just right. Stephen hadn't made any obvious offensive moves, so there was no need to be awarded a free throw. It was just an ordinary defensive foul. The Spurs re-served the ball, and the Spurs had only seven minutes left to attack. Second.

After the ball was served to Ginobili, Ginobili made a false move, pretending to attack, but in fact passed the ball secretly to Robert Horry behind him, Robert Horry raised his head and shot, the ball Drawing a beautiful arc, he plunged into the basket.

This is the normal Spurs team, the offense is in full bloom, not limited to one player, and the Suns still insist on their own style of play, continue to attack and attack non-stop, but this time Kurt Thomas' mid-range shot Missed the basket and the rebound was taken by Stephen.

The offensive ball finally came to Stephen's hands this time. Seeing that the basket was tightly protected, Stephen didn't choose to go to the basket, but took a step forward. After the oppressive Marion retreated, he suddenly retreated. Jump up and get ready to shoot.

But just when Stephen was about to make a shot, he suddenly felt a huge force coming from the ball, and the ball in his hand was hit to the ground with a snap, and then Marion quickly got the ball and threw it to Nash, who started a fast break Score.

This was only the first time, and it didn't attract Stephen's attention. Although Popovich noticed something unusual, he just thought it was an independent incident, but he still called Stephen's name on the sidelines to remind Stephen Pay attention to his previous command.

Stephen shrank his neck, look, he would be scolded for making a mistake, and refused to give up even a shot. What a miserable life. After halftime, Stephen began to compete with Marion. Under Stephen's entanglement, , Marion couldn't even connect the ball, and was forced to the sidelines by Stephen.

Stephen put all his energy into the defense, and the defense immediately went up to a new level, especially when he dealt with Marion's defense in a retaliatory manner, and it was very difficult for Marion to connect the ball. It is impossible to maintain this level of defense every game. Stephen's defense is retaliatory.

The Suns' offense was not completed in the end. Just when everyone thought that Stephen was trying his best to defend Marion, Stephen suddenly came out, blocked Nash's pass to Tim Thomas, and intercepted the ball. A steal.

After returning, although Stephen got the ball, when the breakthrough was about to be completed, he suddenly passed the ball back to Ginobili, and then interspersed between Ginobili and Lagabel, giving Ginobili a The shot created space and timing, but Ginobili's shot missed, but Nesterovic grabbed the rebound and handed it to Robert Horry, who made an easy shot.

D'Antoni's pre-match strategy of focusing on Stephen's marking seems a bit bankrupt, but D'Antoni can't help it. The Spurs' bench lineup is so strong. The result of not focusing on defense is to play the game. What is the result of focusing on defense? It's hard to say now, maybe there is a possibility of success.

After returning, Nash made a shot, which stabilized the situation for the Suns, while the Spurs’ offense was still initiated by Ginobili. After Ginobili and Stephen made a cross-running cooperation, the ball came at the same time In Stephen's hand, Stephen turned around and was about to shoot, but Marion rushed over again, slapped it on Stephen's hand, and the ball flew out again.

The referee still didn't give Stephen a free throw, but let the Spurs continue to serve outside the court. Is this a tactical foul deliberately carried out by the opponent?Want to completely restrict Stephen to this point?Popovich was thinking about it. The Spurs re-served the ball, and it was sent directly to Stephen, who was not far from the basket. Stephen was about to jump and dunk after receiving the ball, but was pulled down by Kurt Thomas.

This time it was finally Stephen's turn to free throw, but Stephen accidentally missed both free throws. After the miss, Stephen patted his hand angrily. What happened to his luck today? Why is it so bad that he can miss free throws? See Stephen's mood fluctuated, and Robert Horry hurried over to comfort him and calm him down.

The opponent's foul is to make you calm down, so that the more you miss, the more eager you are to shoot, and the more eager you are to miss, Stephen also understands this truth, but Stephen just wants to try, what's wrong with his own hand feeling, so when the Suns After the offensive score, Stephen continued to attack, but Marion saw through the ball and destroyed the ball in advance.

Now, Stephen can understand it without others talking, probably, maybe, the other party has done a key research on himself, just like he used to specialize in studying others, and thoroughly researched his own offensive routines, so he was able to restrict him like this self.

In fact, it cannot be said that Stephen is restricted. If Stephen has unlimited offensive power, but he continues to shoot. Anyway, in this short period of time, Marion has already paid for two fouls, and Kurt Thomas fouled once. Stephen will not I believe they will have countless fouls that can be used. If Marion gets another foul, even if he does not rest, he will have to restrain his actions. At that time, Stephen can shoot as he wants.

However, in the Spurs, Stephen did not have this treatment. Whether in the starting lineup or the substitute lineup, Stephen generally only accounted for one-third of the team's shots. In other words, Stephen didn't even have a third. The reason why he scored high was because his offensive method had a high shooting rate and he was young and played for a long time.

Moreover, this time the coach also specially instructed not to let Stephen make a forced shot, but to cooperate with Ginobili, so although Stephen was unwilling, he still lowered his desire to shoot, and at the same time strengthened his own defense. The end is to screen and pass the ball to Ginobili.

Although Stephen didn't make a shot, he was still more threatening than the others, and Marion still relentlessly followed behind him, not daring to relax at all. As a result, the Spurs' offensive power was greatly reduced, while the Suns Because Nash was still on the court, he still played extremely sharp offensively as in the opening game. The Spurs not only failed to close the score, but also made the gap even wider.

Seeing this, Popovich is the first one who can't stand it anymore. If the substitute lineup can't bring the score closer or overtake, is it still waiting for the main players to play? Nash certainly stayed on the court, but is it because Nash stayed? On the court, just watch the score fall behind.

In the past few minutes, Stephen only took one shot tentatively, because he didn't have much confidence in himself, and he didn't take the shot firmly. Billy assisted once and Robert Horry assisted twice.

Seeing that Stephen had almost no desire to shoot, the Suns naturally relaxed their defense against him. Marion even went over to defend his teammates twice in a row, one time almost successfully stealing from Robert Horry, and the other time It caused Ginobili's breakthrough failure.

If Stephen is not allowed to attack, then Marion cannot be restrained. Marion can display his ability to defend and cause trouble for other people's offense, and if Stephen does not play this point, relying on other people's performance alone, It seemed that it couldn't form an effective kill, and Popovich immediately called a timeout when he thought of this.

Popovich didn't say anything more about his previous strategy, and told Stephen directly to let Stephen pay attention to his own offensive choices. The opponent probably did a special study on you, and he had to choose the most confident offensive method, even if it didn't work out. To cause fouls by the opponent, don't blindly cooperate and fail to shoot, that won't work either.

Stephen didn't ask the coach why he was going back on his word. Anyway, he just let himself do it. It's really uncomfortable to hold back like this. It feels like there is a puff of air in his chest, and this aura is still growing. It feels like sooner or later he will It's like breaking my chest, now it's all right, I can vent.

After returning to the court, the Spurs served the ball from the sideline. As soon as Stephen received the ball, he immediately rushed to the inside. Although his dribbling posture was a bit clumsy and his footsteps were a bit stumbled, he went very steadily towards the basket. Kurt Thomas hurriedly stood in front of Stephen, and Marion also made up his mind to block the shot at any time.

Stephen knew that the opponent had studied him, so he deliberately didn't use the offensive method that he often used before. Instead, he suddenly turned around when he hit the basket, leaned on Marion's body to take off, and threw the ball into the basket. In the face of such offensive means, Marion has nothing to do.

Stephen made a wonderful move, broke the ball from Lagabel, and then quickly launched a fast break to the basket, took off and dunked, and scored two points again, but after returning, Nash assisted Tim Thomas to make a shot Three-pointer, this is already the fifth three-pointer made by Tim Thomas in this game.

When Stephen attacked again, he cooperated with Ginobili. The two exchanged their respective defensive players, and then the ball came to Stephen's hands. Facing Lagabel, Stephen raised his hand and shot. Lagabel Bell hurriedly jumped up to block the shot.

But after he jumped up, he found out that Stephen had made a fake move to lure him into it on purpose. After he stretched out his hand, Stephen just handed it up. The second free throw was properly sent to the basket.

Stephen changed his own offensive method. Although Marion did not foul so easily, Marion did not dare to devote his mind to defending others. When Stephen's threat came up, Ginobili's defensive pressure It dropped, and coupled with the performance of Robert Horry, the three players in the bench lineup worked together, and quickly narrowed the gap to only three points.
