Chapter 415 Eliminating the Spurs
"DE-FENCE! DE-FENCE!..." San Antonio's fans were still enthusiastic, they hoped to use their roar to make the opponent play abnormally, and in this environment, the Mavericks began to attack.

As soon as Laohu waved his hand, Nowitzki came out to build a wall, and then it goes without saying that Laohu broke through from Nowitzki's side and encountered Duncan's delay. However, just when Ginobili and Duncan switched positions At the moment, Lao Hu accelerated his posture, which caused the opponent's hesitation.

Whoosh, at this moment, Lao Hu dribbled the ball and flicked his wrist harmoniously, and the basketball flew towards Nowitzki who was standing on the outside line.

It was empty again, but this time, it was obvious that the Spurs were prepared. Duncan immediately started to make up for it with his big hand open.

Whoosh, another pass, Terry slipped from the baseline and just appeared in the corner. Not only was Parker blocked, but his marking was not so tight.

Shot, swish!Another three-pointer!
69 to 67, the Mavericks overtook the score!
At this time, only 5 minutes and 40 seconds had passed in the third quarter. Popovich was considering calling a timeout. Although he had called a timeout before, it seemed to be called too frequently this time.

The Spurs attacked normally, but Popovich resisted the urge to call a timeout. He chose to believe in his players and believed that they could stabilize the situation under such circumstances.

This time the Spurs did not choose to break through from the outside. They were just like the last game when Duncan took the ball inside.

Obviously, Nowitzki alone can't fight Duncan, especially in the paint. Therefore, this time, it is Lao Li who mainly stands behind Duncan, and Nowitzki assists from the side.

no chance!
Even if he was as strong as Duncan, he couldn't take a shot calmly under the double-team of two people. Maybe he could hit hard, but that's not Shifo's current offensive method, especially at this moment when life and death are not at stake.

Passing the ball, Shifo's vision is quite good, and he found the running Frenchman.

With an emergency stop, Parker shook Terry away a little bit, and then made another forward charge. This time, Terry couldn't keep up. He was moving his center of gravity forward just now, trying to force his opponent. But now he can't move back.

Parker is very smart, and his scoring methods are quite rich, but he is best at the kind of small throws.

Bang!But it is a pity that the throw was disturbed this time, and Diop went up to make up for it, which affected the Frenchman's shot.

With a snap, Nowitzki grabbed the rebound, height and wingspan helped him, and Duncan was getting stuck by Old Lee, while Old Thomas was out of position.

In any case, the goal was missed, and the Mavericks' defense was considered a success.

Immediately launched a counterattack, Lao Hu quickly advanced, but the current defense of the old Spurs is still remarkable, at least they have no major problems in terms of retreat.

But even so, Lao Hu can still find opportunities.

Passing the ball, as soon as this action came out, Lao Hu immediately gained space. Ginobili, who was retreating, seemed to be frightened, and retreated directly. He didn't react until Lao Hu held the ball firmly again.

Swish!
Lao Hu shot by himself, and when everyone was running to the basket, Lao Hu shot by himself, and the ball really went in!

"Oh..." The entire AT&T Center exclaimed, and the ball suddenly made the Mavericks take the initiative.

Beep!Popovich can't bear it anymore, and he can't bear it anymore. It's really impossible not to call a timeout.

"Good shot!" "Dude, you are great!" "Just play like this!" "We will definitely win!"...

The Mavericks are all celebrating together. Their emotions are very high now. They not only overtake but also widen the point difference. It can't be better.

The situation on the court is like this, and no one can control the ever-changing situation. However, at this time, the head coach of the Mavericks, Carlisle, made a very intriguing substitution.

Hu Lin was put on the bench to rest, and not only Lao Hu, but Terry also came down, and Carlisle also sent a watery substitute outside!

Regarding this arrangement, both Lao Hu and Terry expressed their willingness to accept it. There is nothing wrong with it. Anyway, they have already done what they should do. They believe that Carlisle must have his own ideas in doing so.

That's right, Carlisle has his own ideas, and now he finally understands the whole situation, the whole situation of the battle between the bull and the horse.

The Mavericks are now leading by a big score, but in terms of strength, although the Spurs are missing Bowen, they have no problems inside, they are fully staffed, and their defense is still excellent.

However, Carlisle is not stupid. He has already seen the problem of the Spurs, that is, these old guys lack outside players.Regarding this point, Carlisle should have thought of it immediately, but he paid too much attention to the Spurs, the opponent, and the opponent's inside advantage, so that Carlisle didn't understand this fact for a while.

That is to say, the Mavericks now have plenty of people on the perimeter, and the Spurs can only use Parker and Ginobili on the outside. As for a veteran like Finley, it is really difficult to contribute anything other than fixed-point three-pointers. Duka, but this guy is a blue-collar at most, just an outside blue-collar.

Now that I understand this, what should I do?
Carlisle chose the simplest way, which is to magnify his own advantages infinitely. Since there are many people he can beat, let's come to the wheel war!
Therefore, Barea added Eddie House and veteran Eddie Jones in the backcourt of the Mavericks. Of course, as long as Jones is tired, he can play Stackhouse. Anyway, the Mavericks have plenty of people on the perimeter.In this way, a dynamic perimeter attacking formation is created.

When the two sides returned to the field again, Popovich felt that he had been calculated, and there seemed to be a cloud of shadows in his heart that could not be eliminated.

Sure enough, the situation of the bull-horse war began to become uncontrollable, and Popovich couldn't control it anymore!
Swish!Eddie House fired from the outside and hit a three-pointer.

The Spurs counterattacked immediately, and Ginobili got the ball, but he didn't take credit for it, and immediately handed it over to the open Finley.

Swish, the ball was scored, it was really not easy, but immediately the Mavericks started to attack again...

Fast attack, fast counterattack, the Mavericks and the Spurs staged a confrontational battle until the end of the third quarter, and the speed of the two sides could not be lowered.

It should be said that the Spurs also wanted to slow down, and Popovich also called a timeout for this, but after the opponent's speed was raised, he also strengthened the interference with the Spurs.

To put it bluntly, it was the Mavericks' previous approach. The offense was fast, and sometimes the defense couldn't take care of it, so there were more open spots.

But the problem is, you can make some shots, but you can't make some shots. In such a tense game, no one dares to say how confident they are in their shots.

Although the Spurs have an advantage in the interior, it is impossible to completely guarantee rebounds, and most of their shots are from the outside, so the ball may not necessarily go where.

In this way, the quick offense quickly turned into a chaotic battle. Even if the veterans of the Spurs want to control, sometimes the thighs are not in control.

88 to 80, the two sides entered the fourth quarter with such a score, and the Mavericks led by 8 points.

This point difference is not too big. It should be said that the Spurs still have a chance, but the problem now is that these old guys turned back and ran down, and their physical strength is running out.

This is already an open fact. At the end of the third quarter, the retreat defense that the Spurs have always been proud of has not been so fast. Ginobili also broke out, scoring two three-pointers in a row. The difference must not be so small.

It's very bad. No matter how he deceives himself, Popovich feels that it is no longer possible. The Mavericks played the most shameless crowd tactics. They used their own rotation lineup, and then kept playing fast, fast, and The old courtiers under him have no strength to resist.

The most important thing is that Popovich knows the result, but he can't do anything at all, and there is no one in his hands to use now.

Hey!
Parker was breaking through with the dribble, but he suddenly exclaimed because the ball was cut off by his opponent Barea just now.

The Mavericks immediately started a fast break, and only Ginobili came back alone. Duncan was the second fastest in the group, but he just ran to the center line, because there was no need to run back, he had better reposition.

Bang, swish!Barea and Terry made a cooperation, and then easily scored two points, 103 to 87. Just after more than 4 points in the fourth quarter, the Spurs made the point difference even bigger.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh..." The fans were unhappy, they were booing their opponents, mixed with all kinds of abuse, but it didn't seem to help their team.

The Mavericks have to be reasonable and unforgiving, continue to go fast, fast, fast...

Beep!When the game reached 7 minutes and 42 seconds, Popovich called a timeout, 117 to 97, and the point difference has reached 20 points. At this time, the point difference, it doesn't matter whether it is called a timeout or not.

Then, what everyone expected happened. The Spurs replaced all the starters, leaving none behind. In the end, they just went up to a group of veterans. They were doing their duty to complete the last time of the game.

Beep!The referee blew the whistle, and Barea, who was in possession of the ball, threw the basketball to the ground, and then the Mavericks players and those sitting on the bench, oh, no one is sitting on the bench now, they all stood up , everyone ran together and hugged into a ball!
"Oh ho ho ho!..."

"we won!……"

"We're in the finals!..."

"We fucking made it to the finals!  …"

These guys bounced, jumped, they eliminated the mighty Spurs, and they reached the Western Conference Finals!
125 to 112, the Mavericks created a miracle again!

　I have been promoted, please support me, thank you!
