Chapter 268 Lost in Three Quarters
The Spurs' offense, Tony Parker forcefully broke through Nash, took a step to the free throw line, and came directly with a small throw in the style of horseback archery.

There was a bang of iron strikes.

The two-pointer missed and bounced out of the frame. Stoudemire took off the rebound and immediately gave the ball to Nash. With long legs, Nash picked up his speed and hit the whirlwind, and quickly crossed the half court. The frontcourt formed a three-on-two offensive situation.

Nash held the ball in the middle, and suddenly Tony Parker, with a clear snap, passed the basketball to the left. Richardson caught the ball face-up, immediately drew his bow and arrow, bent his knees and jumped up, and shot a three-pointer.

With a bang, the three-pointer fell to the basket precisely.

66 to 63! !
As soon as the third quarter opened, the Suns rained three-pointers from the outside and slowly approached the score.

However, the Spurs' offense was also very strong. Ginobili broke through again, made an emergency stop in the horn area, hit the bull's-eye accurately, scored two points, and stabilized the situation on the court.

68 to 63! !
Then, the offense and defense switched, the Suns attacked, Nash received Marion's fast serve from the baseline, dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Tony Parker stepped forward to entangle, Nash broke through with the ball in the middle, and cooperated with Stoudemire in a pick-and-roll. non-stop.

Lin Bai wanted to run, but was defended by Chris Bowen. Lin Bai had a wry smile on his face. The Spurs think too highly of themselves!

He actually used Bowen, a defensive general, to guard against him, an unknown pawn.

Lin Bai really didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Running back without the ball, the experienced Bowen turned to catch up. Lin Bai was stuck in position to ask for the ball, but Bowen directly cut off the receiving route.

There was no room for Lin Bai to attack at all, so Lin Bai could only waste his energy in vain.

After Nash blocked the break, he could only distribute the ball to the left perimeter. Although Richardson did not have Bowen's defense, in the first three quarters, he did not attack many times, and his shots were also interfered by Bowen, and his shooting efficiency was quite high Low, the shooting feel is not stable.

There was a bang of iron strikes.

The three-point shot was shot and popped out of the frame.

The Spurs' offense was very efficient. Tony Parker broke through Nash directly, took a step to the free throw line, and attracted Stoudemire's supplementary defense. Parker sent the basketball to the sky.

With a loud bang, Nesterovic hung on the hoop, and dunked the basketball into the hoop through an alley-oop with both hands.

The Spurs' inside advantage is too obvious, almost one-on-one.

Immediately afterwards, Duncan singled out Marion in the low post, and he could still easily score the basketball.

If Richardson flanks, Duncan passes the ball to the outside, and Bowen's three-pointers are not vegetarian. He attacks inside and outside and plays in an orderly manner. If Richardson does not flank Duncan, he can play unlimited individual singles. Leon had no temper.

The left area of ​​the Suns was beaten to the point of losing sight of one another, and retreated steadily, leaving only parrying.

In the right area, Ginobili's demon sword was also unsheathed.

Facing Lin Bai's defense, he made a direct jump shot after a feint.

Use the European step to break through for a layup and get to the basket for a shot.

Or after a breakthrough, attract the defensive attention of the Suns, distribute the ball, and assist teammates to score the basketball.

Even showing off his back-up singles skills that he is not good at, Ginobili can play with ease and thrive.

He beat Lin Bai to the ground. Facing the top-level offensive firepower, Lin Bai was beaten so badly that his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He couldn't even lift his head.

Ginobili's offensive talent is brilliant, and he also tore through the Suns' defense on the right side without leaving any resistance.

And Tony Parker didn't watch, and also launched an attack on Nash's middle lane. The nickname of "French Sports Car" really lived up to its reputation.

Using the extremely fast speed, he forcibly broke through Nash, and then showed off his small throwing shot on horseback and archery.

If Stoudemire and Marion are one on the left and one on the right, which one will make up the defense, Parker's passing is also very good, he can deliver offensive firepower to the inside of the Spurs, and play the Suns' defense as if it were in vain. There is no power to parry at all.

It directly blasted the Suns' mid-lane area. Every defense area can allow the Spurs' iron cavalry to easily score points.

The fear of the combined strength of "GDP" is vividly reflected in this section.

Led by the three core players of Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili, the Spurs played a stormy offensive, which directly caused the Suns' defense line to retreat steadily, only to be beaten.

And this is not the most terrifying thing about the Spurs, the most terrifying thing is the suffocating defense of the Spurs.

Use Bowen to directly strangle the passionate Lin Bai, use Duncan to guard the penalty area, dominate the basket, and limit the Suns' attack to the basket.

Subsequently, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, and Nesterovic saw every stitch and coordinated defense to directly defend the Suns, which can be called the number one offensive firepower in the league.

Defensively, D'Antoni actually doesn't have any extravagant hopes for the Suns' defense, and only hopes to return the favor on the offensive end.

However, his deployment of troops, his adjustments and substitutions did not achieve any effect at all. Even if he replaced Joe Johnson, a master singles player, he still could not completely tear through the Spurs' defense.

After all, D'Antoni is good at running and bombing, with the ultimate 7-second offense. This style of play has high requirements for the control of the offensive rhythm. The Spurs directly gave the "run" in the Suns' running and bombing tactics to Squeeze to death, so that Nash has been unable to speed up.

Just one move paralyzed the main tactical play of the Suns. In this way, how can the offensive firepower of the Suns be guaranteed.

Subsequently, the Spurs began to target one by one, strengthened the defensive strength, and dismantled the "boom" of the Suns.

In addition to Lin Bai, the three-pointers of Richardson, Joe Johnson, Nash, Marion, Barbosa, Jacobson, Kaba Kappa and other players were all frozen. source of water.

Although the Suns' interior offense can still score points, compared with the Spurs' interior offensive firepower, it is completely insignificant and not in the same dimension at all.

At the end of the third quarter, the San Antonio Spurs directly beat the Phoenix Suns with a score of 36 to 19, which opened the score of the two sides to 24 points and established the final outcome of the game.

On the commentary stage, McBrin had an incredulous expression on his face, the battle for the top spot that was agreed?Say good tough game?What about the title fight?
In the first quarter, the Suns were on par with the Spurs, and even had a slight lead. Unexpectedly, the Spurs had just bared their fangs and raised their defensive level to a higher level, and the Suns couldn't stand it. Turned the game into garbage time.

The Spurs are really strong!Simple is too strong!
"It is said that the Spurs are the most popular team to compete for the NBA championship, but what I want to say is that the name of the championship falls on the Spurs now. When all the games this season are over, you will find , this answer is not wrong, the Spurs won the NBA championship without suspense!"

Groom Albert shook his head, disagreeing with his partner McBrin's extreme views, and retorted: "The Spurs defeated the Suns, which ranks first in the league, in three quarters. In addition to showing that the Spurs are really strong, It also proves that the Suns are now at the top of the list.

The Suns have not defeated a strong team so far, right!It is a championship-level team that can only abuse food and win against weak teams.

However, it is too early to say that the championship is the Spurs. There are still many teams that have the power to fight the Spurs, such as the Pacers, Pistons, Heat, Timberwolves, and Kings.Until the last game is over, it is impossible to reveal the final answer to the suspense of the final championship! "

The game started in the fourth quarter, and the suspense of the outcome of the game was gone.

D'Antoni was not reconciled to failure, put Stoudemire, Nash, and Joe Johnson on the field, try it out, and see if it is possible to recover.

Bo Povich placed all the starting five tigers on the bench, and none of them played, and they all replaced the bench players to fight, which was a formality.

You must know that Tony Parker made 24 of 14 shots and 4 of 1 three-pointers. He has already scored 29 points and 5 assists.

Duncan made 11 of 8 shots and 5 of 2 free throws. He also scored 18 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists.

However, Duncan still didn't go up. After all, the Suns still had three main players on the court, and they didn't mean to give up the game.

The main core players of the Spurs are completely justified, but Bo Povich has been replaced by a full substitute, and Duncan is quietly dazed on the sidelines, with no intention of playing.

Although the Suns replaced Stoudemire and Nash, the two core inside and outside, as well as the supernova Joe Johnson, but facing the Spurs' substitute players, the Suns' outside offensive firepower did not open up the situation.

Nash and Joe Johnson missed one of the mid-range shots, but Stoudemire made a big hit. He made 2 of 2 shots and 4 of 4 free throws. He raised his data to 37 points and 7 rebounds. However, the Suns wanted to reverse the game Totally impossible.

After playing for a few minutes, they were replaced one after another, accepting the bitter fruit of defeat.

As Lin Bai was two steps away from the three-point line, he suddenly jumped up, opened his hand and shot a three-pointer, hit the three-pointer accurately, and fixed his scoring at 16 points and 4 assists. Lin Bai was also replaced down.

The two sides all fought in a melee with all substitute players, and each of them almost stopped defending, playing offense desperately, and swiping personal data. The situation was a bit lively, but it was not as dull as before.

As a result of the full game time, the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Phoenix Suns at home by 115 to 102, 13 points, ending the Suns' 12-game winning streak.

The Suns' record has become 24 wins and 4 losses. The Spurs are 23 wins and 6 losses, only 1.5 games behind, and they can kick the Suns from the top of the league's regular season list and replace themselves.
