Chapter 183 The Warriors of the Western Conference Finals
The Spurs advance to the Western Conference Finals!

A total score of 4 to 2!
Whether it is the strategic plan before the game or the on-the-spot performance during the game, Popovich has now overwhelmed the German coach once.

Almost at the same time that the Spurs and the Rockets were deciding the outcome, at the home of the Pelicans, the Warriors shot and killed the Pelicans 108 to 103, and also with a total score of 4 to 2 and the Spurs will compete for tickets to the finals of this season.

Defensive Warriors, the Rockets have shown us in the Western Conference Finals last year, just a little bit, just a Paul's hamstring.

Unlimited defense changes, no chance to shoot three-pointers, only two-pointers.

The Spurs have also tried it and it is indeed easier to use than the original one, and now the height of the Spurs players is enough to switch defenses infinitely, but Popovich seems to have other ideas here.

"Guys, how do you think the Warriors should deal with it?" Popovich has a good point. In addition to his own coaching staff, he will also collect the opinions of the players. After all, they are the executors on the court.

"I want to defend Durant alone." Xiao Hang said something that shocked the whole team.

"Well, there is more than one Durant in the Warriors." Popovich laughed.

"The rest I'm sure the coach will figure out."

"Hahaha, Xiao, it's useless to flatter me. I'm still responsible to my boss, the fans, and you." Popovich suddenly became serious.

"Xiao, now is not the time to be a hero." DeRozan patted Xiao Hang on the back.

Xiao Hang smiled, but did not answer DeRozan.

"Okay, other people have no objections, so I will arrange it." Popovich swept everyone again.

"Xiao Hang, you are in charge of guarding against Durant." As soon as the words finished, Xiao Hang shouldered DeRozan next to him, with a smug expression on his face.

"Durant broke through to the inside, and Adelaide double-teamed." Popovich instantly slapped Xiao Hang in the face, and DeRozan imitated Xiao Hang just now, and pushed him back with his shoulder.

How could it be like this... deliberately playing tricks on me.Xiao Hang looked discouraged.

"Murray, Mills, and Forbes, you three have very heavy tasks. Follow Curry all the way, and all your energy will be used to run with Curry." Popovich continued to arrange tactics, but Xiao Hang couldn't listen anymore , Anyway, my task is to defend against Durant.

Oracle Arena in Oakland.

Players from both the Spurs and Warriors are warming up, and the Oracle Arena is already a sea of ​​yellow.

The Spurs players and starters all looked a little excited here, especially DeRozan and Xiao Hang, these two rookies in the Western Conference finals, Popovich couldn't stand it anymore, it seems that they have to take good care of them in the future.

The entire Warriors team looks calm. The only player who has not played in the Western Conference Finals is Cousins, but Cousins ​​​​will not start.

Cousins ​​averaged 22 minutes per game in the playoffs, 10 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist and 3 turnovers per game. In the playoffs, Cousins ​​was still a bit out of touch with the Warriors under heavy defensive pressure. , the performance is very general.

Popovich gave Xiao Hang and DeRozan a final warning. These two rookies are really afraid that their performance today will be poor, and everything they do will be wasted.

Players from both sides were already in place, the game officially started, and the younger Jones scrambled to win the big plus.

Durant took the ball and gave it to Curry, and Murray posted it.

Green made a screen, Murray forced his way through the screen, and Ade also came out of his position, forming a pincer attack with Murray.

Curry didn't intend to shoot, and Green caught the ball in one step at the top of the arc and reorganized the offense.

But Durant ran back against Xiao Hang and came over to catch the ball.

After Green passed the ball, he immediately gave up the position at the top of the arc.

With a jump shot, Xiao Hang tried his best to block the shot.

"Boom—" The basketball rolled out of the frame, and Ade took off the rebound.

Murray received the ball, and DeRozan and Xiao Hang started speeding along the left and right sides.

Thompson and Durant hurriedly chased back, while DeRozan and Xiao Hang crossed positions in the paint area, and Alder gave Xiao Hang a cover.

Murray passes the ball.

"Boom—" Xiao Hang felt a little tight in his hands.

Durant controlled the rebound and gave it to Curry.

This time Durant put up the pick-and-roll, and Murray and Xiao Hang felt tense. This is the most difficult tactic for the Warriors to defend.

The right corner of Xiao Hang's mouth twitched, Murray understood.

Xiao Hang followed Curry, while Murray defended Durant.

Durant chose to break through, Ade put up a flanking attack, and put pressure on his body. Durant was slow to play the ball and forced a shot.

The ball hit the front of the rim, but the rotation of the ball brought the ball forward, and the basketball bounced and hit the backboard, and finally entered the basket.

The giant planet can't help it, this time the defense can be said to be very good.

Murray received the ball across half court, and he had no offensive assignment.

The ball was transferred to DeRozan. DeRozan made a direct breakthrough against Thompson. Buddha's lateral movement was not very good. DeRozan leaned on his left shoulder to make an emergency stop jumper.

"Boom—" No, Thompson saw DeRozan's routine, and since there is a relay, I will give you more power.

This time Durant took the rebound and gave it to Curry.

Curry rushed up, Murray followed closely, Curry stopped suddenly at the three-point line, took a cross step, and shot a three-pointer directly.

"Boom—" Ade took off the rebound, and Xiao Hang caught the ball from outside the three-point line.

Xiao Hang is the same as Curry just now, rushing to the three-point line, Durant rushed over, but Xiao Hang just worshiped Buddha.

He rushed inside, faced Jones with a European step, and made a layup.

The 5 rounds took less than 2 minutes, and the rhythm of both sides was very tight.

Curry dribbled the ball across half court, Green's off-ball screen, Thompson circled the baseline to a 45-degree angle to the left, and DeRozan had already thrown himself in front of him.

"Shua—" Buddha came, and Thompson felt better, even if he couldn't see the basket, he could throw it in.

Xiao Hang is in possession of the ball, and Dajia comes to the pick-and-roll.

Xiao Hang went straight to the inside and wanted a layup!

No, Xiao Hang suddenly turned around and flicked the ball in the air to the other side.Da Jia took three steps to catch the ball and split the dunk with one hand.

This ball is a bit like Staples Kobe and him back then.

After the big buckle, he signaled to Xiao Hang that it was an instant pass. This feeling has not been felt for a long time.

Durant received the ball outside the three-point line, took a tentative step, broke through to the right, took a step inside the three-point line, and made a jumper.

"Shua—" Durant showed off his true qualities as a good-looking guy in the middle of the shot.

"Shua—" Xiao Hang is also a CIC, compared to CIC, Xiao Hang has never been afraid of anyone.

Curry tried two more three-pointers, still nothing.

And Durant mainly played steadily here, and only shot 2 points. Thompson didn't have many opportunities here, so he made an empty cut and hit a mid-range shot.

Xiao Hang's breakthrough caused Jones to foul and went to the free throw line.

Xiao Hang made two free throws, and the lineups of both sides also changed.

Here Mills and Belinelli play for the Spurs, while Murray and Gay leave.

The Warriors are in the 5th grade here, and Iguodala replaces Jones.

The front is full of trials and trials, and the Warriors are about to start their three-shot salvo.
