In the pre-match comments in the fourth quarter, many people believed that if the Spurs failed in the end, then they lost in the third quarter. Carmelo Anthony’s scoring was too indulgent. Strange, I don't know why this time is sticking to the rules, and Stephen was replaced only after the fourth quarter. If he had been replaced earlier, Anthony would not have scored so many points.

Now the Spurs are already behind, and in the fourth quarter, with a physically strong Iverson and a fiery Anthony, wouldn't it be more difficult for the Spurs to play? Could it be that the Spurs are going to lose to the Nuggets today? Follow these people Thinking, the Spurs fans also became worried.

However, with the same analysis results, the decision-making is not necessarily the same. In **Vivich's view, replacing Stephen earlier can effectively limit Anthony's scoring, but doing so will be a big blow to Stephen's physical strength. Big challenge, there is still a crucial fourth quarter to be played, Stephen will continue to defend Anthony while scoring against Iverson, if he is allowed to spend his energy on the less important third quarter,* *Vitch felt a little wasted.

**Vich doesn't believe that Anthony alone can pull the score gap to the point where the Spurs can't catch up in one quarter. His touch is extremely hot, but in the fourth quarter, under Stephen's defense , Whether it can maintain the current enthusiasm is still a question.

And after he broke out in the third quarter, is it possible to continue to break out like this in the fourth quarter, especially after Iverson returns, there must be conflicts between the two people's control of the ball, and Anthony will definitely not be like that again. Like halftime, if he doesn't pursue his own shots, he will definitely take more shots, so can Iverson cooperate with him? The past half season has proved that when the two of them appear on the court together, the Nuggets are less scary.

So **Vitch put the decisive battle in the fourth quarter. The difference of a few points is not the key point, the key lies in the control of the game. **Vitch believes in the strength of his own team, and at the same time he also believes in the players under him. As for Stephen , except for occasional impulsiveness, he has never let him down.

What the game seeks is the final victory, not a momentary gain or loss. It is normal for Anthony to explode, because for a player like him, it is impossible for the entire game to be like the first quarter. Even if Stephen has been defending him, it is impossible to maintain Same defensive effect.

Explosion in the third quarter is always better than explosion in the fourth quarter, and the explosion is a bit too strong. **Vichic doesn't believe that he can still do this in the fourth quarter. It is absolutely impossible. If he really can score more than 20 points in one quarter , then it is right to lose this game. Whoever can score forty or fifty points in half the game is eligible to win.

In the fourth quarter, most of the main players of the Spurs returned to the court, only Michael Finley was replaced by Ginobili, and the Nuggets also sent their starting lineup, and both sides were ready to finish their work In the first battle, he won the opponent in the last quarter.

If the Nuggets win this victory, it will be tantamount to offsetting the Spurs' home court advantage, and for the Spurs, it is absolutely impossible for the Spurs to lose in the first game of the playoffs and at home. endured.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Stephen made a shot from outside the three-point line, narrowing the gap between the two sides to only two points. Then when the Nuggets were attacking, Anthony directly reached out to Iverson for the ball. Iverson He hesitated but passed the ball to Anthony.

But at this time, a hand suddenly appeared in front of the ball and patted the ball. It was Stephen who saw Anthony reaching out for the ball, and immediately predicted that Iverson would pass the ball, and reached out from under Anthony's side. Slapped the ball down.

However, since he was standing behind Anthony, he leaned over and stretched his arms as much as possible, unable to control his own strength and direction, he could only destroy the ball. The ball bounced on the floor and was about to pop out. court.

At this time, a figure fell sideways and pounced towards the ball, with only a slight distance, saved the ball from the inside of the sideline, then pushed with both hands, and pushed the ball to Stephen. When he pounced, there was a gap between his body and the floor The sound of impact and friction was clear to the ears, it was Ginobili.

After Stephen got the ball, he didn't stop, and directly threw a long pass to Tony Parker, who was ready to go, and then ran with a big stride. Iverson also turned around and ran, and the two almost ran past Into the midfield, ran to the basket.

Tony Parker was on the right, Iverson was in the middle, and Stephen was on the left. The three of them ran to the basket. Since Blake and Anthony hadn't come over for the Nuggets, Iverson could only be Taking care of both left and right, but with his height, it is really not easy to defend others.

Seeing Tony Parker suddenly stopped and raised his hand, he threw the ball high. The ball didn't go towards the basket, but flew very high, surpassed the basket, and fell to the other side. Alley-oop?Many people had this thought, including Iverson, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw Stephen flying high in the air.

But Stephen just jumped up, and did not fly towards the basket, but jumped straight in the air, then stretched out his right arm, and used his right hand to lightly block the ball, and the ball suddenly changed The direction of the flight flew back towards the direction of the basket, and fell into the middle of the basket without any stumbling.

Five points, less than 40 seconds into the game, Stephen scored five points in a row, helping the team equalize the score, Carmelo Anthony's hard work in one quarter coupled with a super explosion for the team's advantage has been turned into nothing Yes, the two sides have come to the same starting line again.

After the Nuggets came back, Iverson missed a pull-up jumper, but Nene grabbed the rebound and passed the ball back to Blake. After Blake got the ball, he raised his hand without hesitation and made a three-pointer. Point shot, Tony Parker did not have time to react, can only watch the Nuggets regain the lead.

Blake's three-pointer is more reliable, but Stephen's three-pointer is more reliable. As soon as the Spurs came back, before the Nuggets set up a defensive formation, Stephen suddenly raised his hand for a three-pointer at the top of the circle After shooting, the ball seemed to be shot far, but after hitting the backboard, it bounced directly into the basket without any contact with the basket at all.

After making the shot, Stephen ran to the sideline excitedly, turned his hands into the shape of pistols, and fired a series of shots like a cowboy in the west. It was a show, but it greatly pleased the fans at the scene, aroused their emotions, and won cheers for themselves with high decibels.

You must know that this is Texas, which happens to be the birthplace of western cowboy culture. Spurs are a symbol of chivalry, and they are also unique decorations for cowboys at that time. , with a Colt revolver on his waist, wearing jeans and a leather jacket, and clinking high leather boots on his feet, walking on the grasslands in the west. His image is mighty and free and easy, which fully represents the individualism that Americans most admire. and free spirit.

Once Stephen's touch was opened, it was as hard to contain as a flood. When Iverson made his first shot, it was Stephen who scored from the basket again to help the team equalize the score again. When Carmelo Anthony used the cover of his teammates , when he got out of Stephen's defensive range and threw the ball in, it was Stephen who caught the ball at the bottom corner again and used his speed to rush to the basket. Drilled under the rim, and threw it back at random. The ball came out from under the rim, rose and fell into the rim, as if being carried by an invisible line.

After coming back, Blake hit a three-pointer again. After halftime, Stephen shot back without hesitation. From the beginning of the fourth quarter to now, Stephen has arranged all the shots of the Spurs without a single failure. He fought alone. Iverson, Anthony, and Blake did not lose the slightest bit.

Anthony's forced shot missed the basket, and it was Stephen again. After he came back, he made a fadeaway jumper and scored 46 points. In this quarter, Stephen had already scored [-] points. Taking his score in the first half, Stephen has already scored [-] points. Got [-] points.

Carmelo Anthony scored 29 points and Iverson scored 24 points. The two together scored seven points more than Stephen. Iverson also made a three-point shot from outside the line, and Stephen also made a three-pointer. , The Spurs continued to maintain a two-point advantage.

Then the two teams entered into a 2-minute scoring drought. The baskets of both sides seemed to be covered by an invisible cover. Even Nene's dunk could be dunked. At this time, Duncan stepped forward. With a solid rebound to the hoop, the Spurs extended their lead to four.

It was Iverson who broke the scoring drought on the Nuggets side. He bypassed Ginobili with his footsteps, and then faced Duncan with a deft half-turn, but casually threw the ball to the basket with his hand. The ball went straight to the basket. He flew in, came back to the Spurs side, Tony Parker's throw missed, the rebound was snatched by Nene, and a long pass was made to Iverson, who was running like lightning.

Iverson used his speed to the extreme. Although Stephen and Tony Parker tried their best to catch up with him, only half of his body, but they couldn't stop him from scoring. They could only watch Iverson use a layup Evened the score.

Facing the opponent's offensive, the Spurs handed the ball to the most confident person. Stephen did not disappoint the trust of his teammates. A very ordinary jump shot helped the team get two points and led the opponent again. The Nuggets The side's offense missed, and Stephen came back and scored again.

53 points, while Stephen scored, he also broke his own personal record for the highest score in a single game. At the same time, this is also his highest score record in the playoffs. Although Iverson made another shot after coming back, the Spurs have already grasped In the situation of the game, Ginobili made a breakthrough and made an easy shot in front of Nene.

Until the end of the game, the Spurs never gave the Nuggets a chance to close the score. In the last few minutes, both sides felt very bad. Neither Iverson nor Anthony continued to score. One scored 29 points and the other scored 53 points. , are basically the performance of their normal abilities, but compared with Stephen's [-] points, it is a bit eclipsed.
