Capricious Zhuge Weiqi
Chapter 1518:Capricious Zhuge Weiqi
Duncan went to the free-throw line, perhaps out of tension, the usual two penalties are gone, two penalties are all iron, little O'Neal guarding the defensive rebound.
Duncan's free throws, two free throws basically only one, the efficiency of the penalty is a little higher, there are about 70% of the shooting rate, that is, the first penalty hit rate is very high.
After the start of the second half, the Eagles fouled the first four times, except for the first time Gottat was excited, and the next three times were when Duncan was in the scoring area to shoot, Gottat or Little O'Neal.
That is to say, the Eagles have made four fouls, the Spurs have not only played four attacks, Parker or Ginobili shot or passed to the empty pitcher, the Eagles side is the normal defense.
This made Duncan's uneasy feeling a lot dissipated, and the other party just didn't want him to do it smoothly.
From a tactical point of view, Duncan's feeling is indeed one of the goals Liu Yan wants to achieve, Duncan to reduce the touch, is bound to affect the Spurs attack.
However, Liu Xuan underestimated the impact of the ballless Duncan, just like Liu Yan himself can easily get 10 assists under the combing of Rendo, as the first strongest candidate for the position of the point guard and the position of the big forward, the two people do not have the ball in a certain area, the opponent's defensive focus will shift towards that area.
Just like Liu Yan just running around the basket to the left, if the point guard is not Rongdo, Madi or Jason Terry in the right side of the high can easily one-on-one singles do not have to worry about the bag, Duncan appeared in the middle of the two wings, the Spurs also made good use of the eagles' defensive center of gravity offset.
In the fifth minute of the third quarter, Little O'Neal fouled Duncan, and after the fourth foul in the Eagles' single quarter, Liu Yan felt he had to do it!
72 to 73, the Eagles are still a point behind, so continue to burn, with the stability of the Spurs, too difficult to play!
Liu Yan felt that it may be the strongest coach in history, the Eagles side created some of the firsts of some playing methods, but Popovich took the past, and used it better than the Eagles side!
Duncan continued to make one of the two penalties, and the first penalty entered, the second penalty did not enter, Liu Yan guarded the defensive rebound, handed the ball to Maddie, he did not run with Battille.
After the front court, Liu Yan through the hands of Madi hand to pass the ball after the homeopathic block, Batir directly blocked the three points behind, Liu Yan cut a step into the three-point line, through Madi and Batir again separated, facing Ginobili's defense center jump shot ...
Hitting!
Today's middle distance feels hot!The Spurs defense three points are useless, but the middle-range defense can only be said, encountering the three eagles, the defense is really bad.
Liu Yan threw in and clapped his hand, compared to a "five", Gottat and Little O'Neill felt ashamed, they have not done such a thing, but the coaching staff agreed that they can only be ashamed to prepare.
74 flat!
There are more than 6 minutes left in the third quarter, and the two teams have already scored 74 points!
The Spurs played 74 points without finishing the three quarters, which surprised the fans who watched the Spurs for the first time this season.
However, the players standing after the goal of the Eagles side made the fans even more confused... Little O'Neal and Gottat did not retreat!
The moment Duncan sent the ball to Parker into the court, Gottat went up and gave Duncan a loving hug.
In the last round, Duncan was still holding a fluke mentality, thinking that the Eagles just didn't want him to have a mobile phone to foul when he received the ball to make a shooting action, and now he was hugged like this by Gottat, Duncan immediately understood.
Here it is again!
Since the beginning of the 2003-2004 season, Duncan's free-throw shooting rate has not exceeded 65 percent, last season's 62 percent, this season's 61 percent, and Duncan has always had a good shot, this season is 44 percent of the shooting rate... However, Duncan's middle-distance shooting point, between 30 degrees and 60 degrees based on the bottom line, 60 degrees to the free-throw line of the front shot is sincere, the free-throw rate in the top inside, only stronger than O'Neill.
However, usually, the current team's head coach is very face-to-face, will not be like 10 years later on the only cake man De André Jordan are chopping shark tactics, Kwame Brown rarely encounter intentional fouls, Duncan's side is the same, cutting shark tactics at the beginning of the old Nelson in order to deal with O'Neill thought of the way, in the old Nelson before no one thought of the illegal foul?Obviously not, just no one left that face, just old Nelson drove the first river, and occasionally the team cut the shark on O'Neal, but the playoffs cut O'Neal is not a lot of cases.
Cut Duncan is even less, only one team does not care about these things, say cut the cut to cut...
And, it’s not the first time the Eagles have done it, and there have been two precedents before!
The fans on the field were stunned, this action was too obvious, and it was shameless enough...
However, their own team, too normal, although the fans feel ashamed, but excited, as the saying goes, the wife is not as good as the concubines to steal ... this sentence is not only to "steal", which not only refers to that aspect, but refers to the fact that in the case of already having good objective conditions, the additional "stolen" benefits, the most likely to be excited.
If you can get an extra advantage with the shark-cutting tactics, it will certainly excite the fans.
The Eagles will cut sharks directly in the first time of the season, and it is like Popovich, and it is not expected that this situation will be expected, when the peak of the Lakers, Popovich will not do so.
Duncan is probably nervous, of course, mainly their own free-throw ability is really bad enough, the other 40 percent of the shooting rate of the basic free-throw hit rate is more than 80%, Kobe, Yao Ming, Anthony, Iverson, Novesky, Liu Yan and others are so, even the little O'Neill and Maddie also have more than 70% of the free throw rate, on his Duncan Mandae, 60% of the first free-throw shooting rate.
Duncan has two penalties!
Duncan seems to have expected his second penalty is not sure to enter, the ball hit the basket of the moment, Duncan rushed in to the inside line, want to throw himself, but the little O'Neal reacted quickly, the ball went out, the ball to Jason Terry's hand, this time Liu Xuan arrow from the position of rebounding rushed out, Jason Terry will pass the ball to Liu Yan.
The Spurs back defense is very fast, Parker and Battier catch up with Liu Yan, Jason Terry on the other side, there are Ginobili followed, Liu Yan rushed into the three-point line, strong Battier and Parker compressed into the free-throw line, the ball into the right 45 degrees angle...
Maddie has arrived!
Maddie took the ball three-pointer... come in!
77-74, the Eagles over 3 points!
The Spurs call to Pause!
Popovich reacted quickly, but this sudden turnaround situation, he has not been good at dealing with, can only do, only to replace Duncan, Duncan also played half of the third quarter, the first half of Duncan played 21 minutes, has exceeded the Spurs against Duncan's first three seasons of use time.
But Duncan went down... the Spurs system fell in half!
The current immature Spurs system can play so well, and most of them are carried out by Duncan's holding force.
Ginobili was in the first half of the second half, he was not the kind of stable player, often a game is a period of time.
So, in the second half of the third quarter, the Spurs side of the team rely on Parker to carry the team alone...
On the Eagles side, Liu did not expect Popovich to replace Duncan so decisively, but he did not miss the opportunity to replace Marion and Quamet Brown, leading the team to play a wave of 15 to 9 half-game scoring shock wave.
After three quarters, the Eagles led the Spurs 9 points to the break with 92 to 83!
The Spurs scored 83 points in three quarters, which has been surprising, and the Eagles played 92 points in the Spurs three-segment...
Eagles fans have been enjoying the "new era of basketball" fun, and the fans in front of the TV saw this scene, feeling that the future is really coming, even the Spurs team is really offensive!
Soon, the rest of the season ended, and the two teams played the fourth quarter.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, substitutes Brad Miller and Scola went straight to Duncan's foul.
The third quarter also has to take into account a little face, but has begun to cut the shark tactic, tore the face, the Eagles side also have no hidden ideas, directly dry!
With a strong sense of shame and excitement, the Eagles’ inner line continues to give Duncan the warmest hugs...
If you give Popovich time to prepare ... in the face of this shameless behavior, there is really no good way, unless Duncan can maintain at least 70% of the free-throw shooting, otherwise this situation is very difficult.
What's more Duncan today, let alone 70% of the shooting percentage, in the fourth quarter, after Duncan first went to the free-throw line, it was a two-penalty all-iron, and it was already 15 penalties and 4!
Duncan is not good at leading the team to turn the game, especially on his least confident free throw, he has no confidence.
In front of Popovich is a dilemma choice, instead of Duncan's strength loss, Duncan is like Liu Xuan, the missing eagle team does not know what kind of play, but less Duncan's Spurs, they have felt the 2000 defending season playoffs, directly from the championship team to the Suns blood abuse.
Staying on Duncan's field, the other side has been chopping sharks, the key is that the other side has too many insiders, and the other side of the substitute on the field Grant Hill and Finley are not ashamed to be close to Duncan.
It's easy to crack the shark, Duncan can be as accurate as O'Neal's key moment penalty, but Duncan can't...
The shark-cutting tactics did put the rhythm on the field stalled, Popovich also considered cutting shark counterattack, but when the Eagles used the shark-cutting tactics, they did not change the players with two low free-throw hits by Kwame Brown or Ronaldo, on the unlimited singles of Liu Yan and Maddie or Jason Terry, the efficiency is low, but at least the efficiency is higher than the Duncan free throw score.
By the fourth minute of the fourth quarter, Popovich was angry and not playing!The difference was only 14 points, and the Eagles were 103 to 89, but Popovich directly replaced the troika, which was so capricious.
In the end, the Eagles relied on chopping sharks, relying on Liu Xuan's 28 points, 7 boards and 11 assists, Maddie's 20 points, Jason Terry's 18 points, Scola, Finley, Little O'Neal, Grant-Hill cut 30 points, the Eagles ended the Spurs' 9 consecutive wins with a score of 123 to 108, 15 points!
Duncan first half 15 + 7 + 4, the performance is very good, even covered Liu Yan's first half performance, but the whole game just 22 points and 10 boards ... the third quarter began a assist without an assist ... Duncan's 24 penalty 8 also blinded nearly 20 million fans watching live broadcast of the titanium eyes ...
People have always known that O'Neill's free throw is bad, often have such a performance, did not notice Duncan in fact, often did not notice that there are often 7, 8 in 2 penalties, when such a free throw rate expanded to 24 penalty 5, it is particularly eye-catching ...
When Liu Yan heard the whistle at the end of the scene, he was just ready to install, and suddenly heard the system prompt...
"Ding ... the first encounter with the Spurs system, Goal 1: 10 assists per game has been completed.Goal 2: Limit the Spurs to score below 100 (failure).The mission failed.”
