Chapter 270 Pelican Explosion

The Spurs' first opponent in three consecutive away games is the Dallas Mavericks.

Not long ago, the Spurs just successfully won them at their home court.

But Carlisle thought, this time he came to the Lone Ranger's home court, so he had to try to win a game no matter what.

The last time the Lone Ranger performed well because of Dongcic's explosion, but this time at his home court, Dongcic did not explode.

There are still 10 games left in the game. The physical fitness of the whole team has reached the zero point. Everyone is still working hard for the playoffs. Unfortunately, the road to the impact is not easy.

The starting state is average, and the ability of the substitute is also average.

The Lone Ranger has suffered a two-game losing streak, and morale is low.

Of course Xiao Hang also saw this problem, Xiao Hang still thought, why did he score 29 to 18 in the first quarter without exerting his strength.

In the second quarter, I made a little effort and thought about collecting some data, and the direct score difference came to 17 points.

The Spurs suppressed the Lone Ranger 55 to 38 in the first half. The home fans were a little helpless. Not long ago, the Lone Ranger still fought the Spurs to the last moment, fully motivating their expectations for the Lone Ranger to enter the playoffs come out.

However, today I fed a mouthful of shit at home.

In the third and fourth quarters, the Lone Ranger did not regain his form throughout the second half.

Carlisle also used all methods, and the morale of the whole team was at its lowest point.

112 to 90, the Lone Ranger reluctantly accepted the defeat and accepted that he was blasted by the Spurs for 22 points.

Xiao Hang scored only 27 points in the three quarters. He asked his teammates to play more to maintain his state, and he paddled himself.

But in the next game against the Pelicans, there was another problem.

The Pelicans' three major insiders are really too strong. As long as the three major insiders play well, it will really be people blocking and killing people, and Buddhas blocking and killing Buddhas.

The Spurs almost collapsed in the first quarter. It is impossible to see if Xiao Hang scored 13 points in a single quarter and kept the point difference within 10 points.

The break between the two quarters.

Popovich talked about things in that blah blah blah.

And Xiao Hang put one ear in and the other out, he was silently watching the score on the big screen.

32 to 24, although only 8 points behind, but this is too slap in the face, the first time the Spurs fell behind like this, and was rubbed on the ground.

In fact, the Spurs don't have any major problems here.

The main problem is that the Spurs can't make shots and the Pelicans can make shots no matter what.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Spurs used a point-chasing lineup. The Pelicans shot 66% in the first quarter, no matter how they defended.

Murray, Belinelli, Xiao Hang, Gay, and Isaac are actually not bad defensively, but the top defense inside is even worse.

Xiao Hang took the lead in the charge, dribbled the ball across half court, and used Isaac's cover to break into the Pelicans inside.

Stepping into the free throw line in two steps, although Big Eyebrow's frame protection is good, he was blocked by Isaac, and neither Randall nor Mirotic is a master of frame protection.

"Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Xiao Hang hit hard, venting his inner displeasure.

Payton dribbled the ball across halftime and gave it to Holiday, who suddenly rushed into Belinelli.

Isaac defends.

"哐—" Brother Nongmei made an alley-oop and buckled back.

Xiao Hang continues to be Isaac's pick-and-roll, just to evacuate the Pelicans' inside line.

Xiao Hang easily scored inside again.

Gentry is considering whether to use the zone defense.

But the configuration of the Spurs on the field is to wait for you to defend, all three-pointers.

Gentry decided not to use it, just like this, anyway, the players on the field feel good.

"Shua—" Holiday made another three-pointer, and with the cover of thick eyebrows, before Isaac delayed and Xiao Hang chased after the time lag, Holiday made decisive one-stage three-pointers.

A certain style is becoming more and more popular in the league now, and Curry alone will not allow players to completely change their shooting.

But LeBron James started with a certain style, and many 3D players also changed their style.

The characteristic of one-stage stable shooting has been brought into play. Although there is a requirement for shooting space, it is not a problem for this group of superstars who can easily test the dribble to create a little shooting space.

Holiday also joined the army of one-step shooting. Although it was painful to practice, in the last few games, the three-point shooting rate has stabilized at 43%. This result is acceptable.

Holiday has been practicing since the end of last season's playoffs, and he has only dared to put it into actual combat until now. During this period of training with tens of thousands of goals, only he himself knows the pain.

Today when he played the Spurs, he directly played Curry's feeling. In the first quarter, he made 4 of 3 three-pointers, all of which were outside the three-point line, and scored 9 points in a single quarter.

The pelican continues to blossom inside and out.

The Spurs were very depressed. They originally wanted to seduce Gentry to come to the defense, but they were seen through.

Now that he has been seen through, he can only come to "hard ones".

Xiao Hang still continued to break through, but the outsiders were no longer "standing" watching Xiao Hang's singles, and decisively moved actively.

"Shua—" It seems that the Spurs also took a breath in their hearts. Belinelli was too humiliated by Holiday's sudden suddenness. This time, he pulled out the open space and made a decisive shot.

Next, Isaac blocked Holiday, who was inflated and challenged the inside line. Xiao Hang seized the opportunity to break fast and shoot a three-pointer!
"Shh-"

There was a crisp sound of surfing the net, and the two sides completely let go of the fight.

The second quarter lasted until the last 2 minutes. The two sides came off the bench and began to peck at each other, and the scoring momentum was eased.

58 to 55, the Spurs chased up the score and fell behind by only three points for the time being.

In the second quarter, Xiao Hang scored 17 points alone, and scored 30 points in the first half. If this momentum continues in the second half, Xiao Hang's scoring is likely to start at 6.

In the second quarter, the Pelicans' shooting percentage dropped slightly from 66% to 58%.

It seems that the debts of the year have to be repaid, but fortunately, it is just an ordinary regular season.

Popovich is still quite optimistic here. Most of the team members have experienced many life-and-death battles, especially in the second quarter, after Xiao Hang took the lead in the charge, even a few rookies played well.

Continue to play against each other, Popovich is still thinking, he is only encouraging the players now.

Want to try it?

A voice inside Popovich cried out.

You can try your own firepower, it's just a regular season.

Now that he thought so, Popovich started to do it.

Xiao Hang in the first position, Belinelli in the second position, Guy in the third position, Ade in the fourth position, and Isaac in the fifth position.

Both internally and externally, Adelaide is mainly used to bear the impact of Randall. Adelaide has also lost weight recently, from 260 pounds to 255 pounds. Moreover, Adelaide's offense will also cause trouble for Randall. After all, Randall Paul's defense is also mediocre, and he often suffers from technical insiders.

Popovich is at the end of his career. If you don't go crazy, you don't have much time.
