The invincible kryptonite of basketball

Although Paul is more famous and powerful, but when he first arrived, the team's offense always started with Griffin.

Griffin turned with his back to Duncan to catch the ball, his eyes full of murderous intent.

In the last game, he beat up the Nuggets' inside core Nene, and he is not going to show mercy to old Duncan at this moment.

The NBA is very cruel. Even if you are a historical super giant, if you continue to stay on the court when you are old, you will inevitably be ravaged by rising stars.

Dribbling the ball in one step, leaning on Duncan and then turning around to kill under the basket, Griffin's style of play is quite direct, wide open and close.

However, he somewhat overestimated his wingspan and underestimated Duncan's experience. After turning around, he would have been caught by "Stone Buddha" and slapped him back.

There was an uproar at the scene.

"Stone Buddha" is a precious sword that never grows old!

Green turned around and grabbed the blocked ball, and he threw the ball to Parker.

Parker turned to face Paul's fast break, and the spinning top layup in the frontcourt caused Paul's thug foul.

Paul took off his braces and jumped up, indicating that he hadn't fouled, but the referee did not change the sentence.

There were boos at the scene.

Tang Tian frowned slightly at this moment.

With the improvement of his dynamic vision, his ability to capture the details of the field has also improved. The small movements of Paul's thugs in the ball just now were obvious. It seems that he has to be careful after he comes on the field.

Chapter 164 A group of people who can't afford to lose (3/5)

Parker made two free throws despite boos, and the Spurs took the lead.

Paul controlled the ball to the frontcourt, Griffin asked to continue playing, and Duncan also sank his focus and continued to defend.

This time Griffin paid attention to Duncan's block when he turned around, but he was still interfered by Duncan's outstretched arm at the moment of his shot, and the ball jumped out of the basket.

The Clippers' consecutive offenses failed.

Duncan took the defensive rebound and gave it to Parker. Parker was not in a hurry, dribbling the ball to control the rhythm to the frontcourt, and stretched out his hand to signal for AI hammer tactics.

Tactical movement on the field, Jefferson's breakthrough gave the ball to Green, a completely open opportunity.

Green opened his hand and hit a three-pointer, and the Spurs started 5-0.

The scene was full of restlessness. The Clippers' start was completely different from when they played against the Trail Blazers.

Paul also realized that the momentum was wrong, and instead of giving the ball to Griffin, he signaled Jordan to come out and play the pick-and-roll.

De Nagro is not a tactical coach, he is more about delegating Paul on the offensive end.

Jordan pulled the pick-and-roll to the free throw line, and Paul made a mid-range shot before Blair switched defenses in place after the pick-and-roll.

"Shh!"

The mid-range is as stable as a dog, and Paul broke the scoring shortage on the court for the Clippers.

The fans at the scene also burst into cheers.

Paul flew into the sky and escaped from the ground during the Hornets, and once brought the Hornets to the second place in the Western Conference. He was also second only to Kobe in the MVP selection.

Although he suffered a serious meniscus injury later, he is still a dominant point guard after his style of play has changed.

But here Paul just scored two points in the mid-range shot, and then Parker also scored two points with Blair's pick-and-roll throw.

Paul took the ball and attacked again. This time the Spurs' defense was in place. He split the ball to Butler in the bottom corner.

Looking back, Duncan hit Jordan in a misplaced position at the basket, and after turning around, he also hit the board.

The two sides played for about half a quarter, and the score on the court was 20 to 10. The Spurs had established a 10-point lead.

Tang Tian sat and watched off the court, and basically knew the strength of the Clippers.

"Lob City" is actually more like a "performance team". When you meet a team with an average defense like the Nuggets, you can play vigorously inside and outside the line, but when you meet a team with a strong defense like the Spurs, you can't attack tough. ability appears to be limited.

But this is not the main problem. With Paul, there is still a lower limit for offense.

The bigger problem is defense. Let alone Butler and Billups' footsteps are slow, they don't retreat in time, there is no tacit understanding between teammates, and they don't even have a formed defensive system.

In other words, the Spurs' offense was smooth and smooth, without much interference at all. They played half a quarter and the team's shooting percentage exceeded 7%.

About 7 minutes into the game, Popovich made a rotation ahead of time, and Ginobili, Splitter, and Leonard came off the bench one after another.

The Clippers also replaced Billops and Butler with Randy Foye and Ryan Gomez.

After being bombarded with 20 points in the half quarter, De Nagro also realized that there was a problem with the defense, but he seemed to only see the slow pace of the old players.

In the Clippers' offense, Foye made a three-pointer after catching the ball around Griffin's pick-and-roll. He felt good when he came up.

Looking back, the Spurs' Zip Hammer tactic, Ginobili's breakthrough gave Leonard the ball, and the latter also made an open three-pointer.

There is still a 10-point difference. Although the Clippers have made substitutions and adjustments, their defense on the field is still full of holes.

After the first quarter, the Spurs have taken a 35-point lead 20-15.

Drogny tried several methods in the first quarter, but nothing worked, and the game looked like it was going to be halftime.

During the intermission of the first quarter, Popovich called Tang Tian and Bonner up, taking advantage of the trend to replace all the main players.

Tang Tian took off his training clothes, shook his arms and stretched his muscles.

The previous preseason was like an appetizer, and then he made his real debut in the NBA.

Back from the intermission, the Spurs have Ginobili, Tang Tian, ​​Leonard, Bonner and Splitter, a lineup with an average height of over 2 meters.

The Clippers also rotated further, with Mo Williams and Foye on the back line, Gomez and Kenyon Martin on the front line, and Reggie Evans at center "rebounding idiot".

In the Spurs' offense, Ginobili acted as the No. 1 position and directly played a Zip hammer tactic.

Tang Tian, ​​Leonard, and Bonner all had three-point shooting range. The Clippers expanded their defense a lot at this time, and Ginobili scored a layup after breaking through.

The point difference was stretched to 17 points.

There was a commotion at the scene, and even some fans showed impatience in their eyes.

The Clippers have not been building a team for a long time, and the number of times they have entered the playoffs can be counted on the fingers. Especially in recent years, they have almost been at the bottom of the year. As a result, there are very few loyal fans. Many of them came to watch the game because of the arrival of Paul. of.

The situation is unfavorable now. Compared to cheering, these rich people in Los Angeles show more impatience.

Gomez's layup was blocked by Leonard, and there were even some sporadic boos at the scene.

In the fast break of the Spurs, Ginobili hit a chasing three-pointer, and the point difference has reached 20 points.

Some fans cheered for Ginobili.

This home field has made people foolishly confused.

Mo Williams' breakthrough layup was missed by Tang Tian. He made a small push, but he didn't push Tang Tian.

Tang Tian's thoughts off the field before were correct.

Any habit is contagious, especially when the habit comes from the core of the team. The core of a team likes to complain about referees, and then the whole team gradually becomes fond of complaining; the core of a team cannot fight tough battles , then this team will look very soft.

Paul likes small actions, and this habit can easily affect his teammates.

Especially in the current situation of 20 points behind, the control of the trailing side in this aspect will also become worse.

In the Spurs' offense, Ginobili broke through to attract double-teams and then gave the ball to Splitter under the basket. Splitter dribbled the ball and used his strength to prepare for a dunk.

Martin, who returned to defense, directly threw Splitter to the ground with a sudden force.

This move was a bit big, and it almost triggered a large-scale conflict between the two sides.

Popovich was very angry at this time. He rushed to the technical stage and yelled directly at the referee.

His anger is not for no reason. It is normal to win or lose in the arena, but if he uses these methods because he loses a lot, he cannot afford to lose.

And what really made him angry was not that the Clippers couldn't afford to lose, but that this kind of action could easily cause injuries.

The Spurs have many veterans, and those with old arms and legs are more likely to be injured. This season, the team is very confident. If someone is injured in the opening game, it is completely unacceptable.

Chapter 165 Stadium Conflict (4/5) (Revised)

The referee gave Martin a technical foul, which temporarily calmed the old man's anger.

Split's two free throws, plus one free throw.

Split made two free throws, and Ginobili also made a technical free throw. The point difference came to 23 points, and the Spurs still had the ball.

Derogney traded Billups and Butler back, which is a big shock to the veteran.

Popovich also replaced Splitter with Blair.

The Spurs had the ball, Ginobili signaled the AI ​​hammer tactics, and Tang Tian took advantage of Split's open corner for a three-pointer.

Ginobili made an aggressive long throw pass from the basket, and the ball directly passed Evans from the sidelines to Tang Tian's hands.

Tang Tian comfortably caught the ball and shot it.

"Shh!"

Tang Tian hit his first goal in the NBA regular season!

The point difference came to 26 points!

When Tang Tian returned to defense, he gave Ginobili a high-five. His cooperation with "Demon Saber" is completely familiar.

In the Clippers' offense, veteran Billups came out of the pick-and-roll and hit a three-pointer, pulling the point difference back to 23 points.

But at this time, there was not much reaction from the scene.

The atmosphere here is really bad.

The Spurs' offense, Manu Ginobili broke into the basket and then scored 2 points.

After Yaodao came up in the second quarter, he scored 8 points and 1 assist, and he was already unstoppable on the court.

The more the Clippers fall behind, the looser the defense. The Spurs lead more but the intensity on the court is always there.

The pass from Williams to Billups was successfully caught by Tang Tian, ​​who made an early save and intercepted the pass.

The ball was given to Ginobili. Ginobili played steadily at this time and did not push the fast break. He dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and continued to play Zip hammer tactics.

"Defense! Defense!"

The live DJ tried to encourage the audience to cheer for the home team, but the effect was sparse.

It can be clearly felt that the faces of the Clippers players on the field are becoming more and more ugly.

Being behind by more than 20 points, just being called a technical foul, and not being welcomed by the fans, this kind of negative energy is extremely depressing.

Ginobili signaled Leonard and Tang Tian to stretch the corners of the two wings, and signaled Bonner to pick and roll to the free throw line.

He also realized that the defense of this new Clippers team was poor, and there was no need to waste so much physical energy by running tactics.

Bonner's pick-and-roll isn't solid, and it comes off a bit too fast, with Ginobili getting double-teamed by Martin and Mo Williams as he drives into the paint.

However, "Demon Sword" is "Demon Sword", and the ball was passed out in the gap.

Bonner had a three-point chance to catch the ball, but before he could make a shot, the referee whistled from the basket.

Ginobili suddenly fell to the ground with his left hand on the ground, his expression extremely painful.

This sudden situation interrupted the game. At this moment, Blair suddenly went over and pushed Martin hard, and the two sides spat face to face.

Because it was an instant thing, and Ginobili encountered a double team, only Blair under the basket knew what happened.

However, when there was a conflict, Bonner from the Spurs quickly went up, and Tang Tian also called Leonard to confront each other.

The two sides were at war, and the referee quickly squeezed between the two teams to avoid conflict.

But at this moment, Martin suddenly punched Blair in the face, and Blair immediately ran away and chased Martin.

Martin punched and fought and retreated, and his coquettish position was not hit.
