Chapter 248
For Popovich, the worst result is what is happening now.
The underdog Nets have taken the initiative in the game, and the Spurs have gradually lost themselves in the rounds of thunderous cheers at the Nets home court.
Popovich holds the tactical board and draws tactics for the players.
The old coach wants to use tactics to get the team back on track.
Because he knows that the Spurs at this level are not normal Spurs.
The team's strength is far from what is shown on the court now.
There are more than 6 minutes left, which is enough for the 8-point difference.
"Cheer up, everyone. The score is not impossible to catch up. We still have time. We have to fight. If we win the game, we will be the champions. We can take a vacation tomorrow. Guys, show our passion!"
Popovich is trying to boost morale, but the Spurs players did not give him strong feedback.
Duncan looked calm, Ginobili wiped the sweat, and Parker lowered his head.
"Cheer up, play according to the tactics, do you have confidence?"
"Yes..."
The voice was weak, and Popovich knew that the team would be difficult to lead if people's hearts were scattered.
The game continued and both sides returned to the court.
The Spurs still had the ball in Parker's hands.
This was something both sides were happy to see. Only the Spurs fans didn't understand why they didn't give the ball to Ginobili.
Parker started the attack amid doubts.
He dribbled the ball quickly and broke through. Lagabel was quite skilled in defending Parker's regular breakthrough.
Helpless Parker turned on the gyroscope mode again.
Because he could easily control his body balance when breaking through and turning around,
and he didn't need to slow down, which made Lagabel, who experienced this breakthrough again, El had no idea of defense.
With this move, Parker easily got rid of Lagabel.
At the same time, the real test Parker faced had just begun.
Because the Nets' inside line was standing with Roy who was ready.
Parker would once again face Roy's backup defense, which would be a huge test for Parker's psychology.
Throughout the entire series, Roy has definitely been Parker's nemesis.
The combined pressure of Kidd and Lagabel was not as great as Roy's. Roy's average blocks per game were so high,
More than half of them were contributed by Parker to Roy.
Parker dribbled the ball and Roy would not be deceived by Parker at this moment.
Just stand firmly in place, because his jumping ability and arm span control can cover a large area.
No matter how much Parker jumps, he will not be out of his control.
Seeing that dribbling and changing his position have no effect, Parker also made up his mind to break through.
He dived into Roy's arms, then turned around and used his speed to try to get rid of Roy's control area.
Having already entered the basket, Parker knew that Roy was ready above his head.
He paused the ball and found Duncan in the crowd. He really didn't have the confidence to find a chance to shoot in this no-fly zone.
He stuffed the ball directly into Duncan's arms. At this time, there were already 5 people standing under the basket.
It was crowded. McGinnis and Roy who returned to defense formed an inside barrier. Lagabel who was chasing Parker had also squeezed in.
Tim Duncan He didn't shoot immediately after getting the ball. He needed to adjust his shooting distance.
Because Parker's pass was like a hot potato stuffed into his hands, but this was a basket surrounded by many people.
Duncan was surrounded the moment he got the ball.
The French little broken car caused a lot of harm. Even though Duncan was so good-tempered, he still couldn't help but complain under the basket.
Duncan took a deep breath, took the ball and squeezed McGinnis, who was closest to him, with his shoulder.
Seizing the opportunity at this moment, he forced himself to stand up, grabbed the basketball and seemed to decide to make a short hook shot.
Roy was waiting for this moment. Duncan forced a shot when he couldn't jump.
"Snap"
Roy, who found the opportunity, would never miss such a good opportunity. He pressed the basketball in Duncan's hand face to face.
After landing, he made up with his other hand. When Duncan couldn't support it with one hand,
He took the ball from him with both hands!
After stealing and blocking, Roy did not control the ball.
The morale of the team has risen. Roy found Jefferson not far in front of him and quickly passed the ball to him.
Then Carter started the fast break and accelerated.
Jefferson knew that his passing ability was problematic. After two steps, he threw the ball across the half court.
After Carter caught the ball in mid-air, facing the empty Spurs half court,
He took a big step and ledThe ball went into the basket, and he took a step inside the free throw line.
He turned in the air and dunked with his back to the basket.
The difficult goal and the team's score expanded to double digits were exciting. Carter excitedly twisted his motorcycle celebration in the air, full of passion.
The fans on the court were driven by applause and cheers.
88 to 98
The Nets' biggest lead in this game!
Under the court, Popovich looked at the players on the court, who seemed to have been drained of their energy by this goal.
There was no fighting spirit on their faces.
Perhaps they should save their strength and focus on the next game. It is obvious that the Nets are no longer the familiar team.
Things have completely gone beyond the control of the Spurs.
The game continued, and it was just as he expected.
The Spurs were quickly left behind.
With less than 2 minutes left, they were 18 points behind.
The game quickly lost suspense.
Popovich had to replace the substitutes, which also announced that the Spurs officially gave up this game.
The Nets also replaced the main players.
The fans at the Nets home court stood up and cheered for the main players who left the court.
When everyone was pessimistic, it was these players who relied on their perseverance and resolute execution.
They tenaciously defended the Nets' home court and left the suspense of the game to the next game.
The coach hugged Roy and Carter tightly. Without their performance today, this game would be the last game of the season.
The substitutes of both sides could not change the score situation.
With the referee's whistle, the game ended smoothly,
102 to 117
Roy fulfilled his promise with his actions,
He scored 36 points, 22 rebounds, 13 assists, 6 blocks, and 2 steals in this game. The comprehensive data is the solid pillar for the Nets to win.
Carter, another core of the Nets, contributed a strong performance of 37 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists, the highest in the game.
On the other hand, the Spurs,
Although Duncan performed well, 27 points, 16 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 4 assists were bright enough, but he was completely overshadowed by Roy on the opposite side.
Ginobili performed poorly in the second half, scoring only 24 points, 4 rebounds, and 8 assists in the whole game. His performance was one of the main reasons for the Spurs' defeat.
Parker had many opportunities throughout the game, but made more mistakes, 19 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists. He is also one of the scapegoats of the Spurs.
