In the second quarter of the game, during the rotation, Bo Povich asked George Hill to take over Ginobili's role as the sixth man.
At the same time, he sent the seventh man Matt Bonner, plus two rookie players, Thiago Spruit who was drafted in 2007 but signed to the NBA this year, and Gary Neal who was undrafted in 2010, as well as the starting main force who performed poorly but This is Jefferson in his prime.
Compared with the Mavericks' rich lineup of Haywood, Nowitzki, Marion, Terry and Barea, that's shabby!
Just playing Marion's card makes the Spurs' rotation unaffordable.
“But, winning is not that simple!
Is your lineup good at playing? Knowing how to spank is of no use! Those who come out to play in the NBA need Hong Kong tactics and have brains..."
When the game started in the second quarter, the Mavericks' lineup was, in theory, a dimensionality reduction attack. However, the Spurs used a tacit pass-and-cut tactic to resist.
“Once upon a time, when the Spurs’ trio was still young, they could try to win the championship with a few veterans recruited from the free market.
Now that the GDP combination is old, the Spurs are also experiencing an aging lineup. Gone are the days of recruiting a few veteran players to support the Spurs' bench.
With the aging of the three core players, it is inevitable that the Spurs’ bench lineup will be replaced by Home Alone…”
It takes a lot of experience to play defensive tactics, and it is easy to make mistakes. It is reasonable to fight for offense. Young people do not have martial ethics and act recklessly when they rush in, so that they can show their talents.
You know, the Spurs still have the strongest card, and that is Bo Povich's on-the-spot scheduling. With a mediocre rotation, it can still be done for a few minutes.
4 minutes later, Gary Neal left the game and Parker returned to the game. After experiencing injuries, Parker once swapped identities with Ginobili last season. Parker played the sixth man and Ginobili played the starting point guard. guard.
5 minutes later, Ginobili came on and was replaced by George Hill.
After 6 minutes, Matt Bonner went off and Duncan came back...
“The Spurs overcame their bench disadvantage with the help of pass-and-cut tactics.
The core players got a rest and returned to the court to work hard..."
The Mavericks' rich battle, under the control of Bo Povich, failed to take advantage and take the lead in the score, and it was a lonely game.
In the second quarter of the game, the two sides played with a score of 24 to 24.
At the end of the first half, the score was 55 to 53. The Spurs continued to maintain a 2-point lead and entered the locker room to rest.
After 15 minutes of rest and recuperation, they came back for the second half of the game.
The main forces of both sides then played music and then fought again.
"The Spurs had the ball, Parker took the ball to the frontcourt, passed the ball to Ginobili, and then cut to the basket.
Ginobili was strictly monitored by Su Bei and did not make any more waves. He passed the ball to Duncan who was pulled up to the high post, and then started cutting without the ball.
He played a screen match with Duncan. While getting rid of Su Bei, he received a pass from Duncan and dribbled the ball to the basket. He used a small one to beat a large one and ran into Chandler in a misplaced position.
Lift the ball a little, immediately perform a snake step, dribble the ball for a layup, attract Chandler to switch defense, and then pass the basketball to the middle..."
Duncan cut in from the air, received Ginobili's pass, jumped up, and hung his long arms to the basket...
Bang-dang——!
Duncan dunked with one hand and connected with Ginobili's breakaway, easily scoring two points.
53 to 57!
"pretty!
Pass-and-cut coordination + breakthrough and distribution, both are killer moves. The Spurs use them together in combos. What do you use to top it? "
Whether it's Ginobili vs. Chandler or Duncan vs. Su Bei, mismatched attacks have a great chance of scoring goals. However, if they continue to add chips, it's a damn thing if they can prevent it.
"Kidd brought the ball to the frontcourt and called Su Bei's card.
After receiving the ball, the three threats took a step and suddenly started to act. They continued to be reckless and used their bodies to force the way. Ginobili fought and retreated, and Duncan also rushed to help defend. The Spurs' zone defense was not so easy to break.
Su Bei handed the basketball back to Kidd, continued to deal the cards, and ordered Nowitzki's card.
Lifting the ball a little, he dribbled the ball in and broke through. After being followed by Blair, he immediately turned around and gave him a slap in the butt. When he saw Parker coming to defend him, Nowitzki didn't force the ball and handed the basketball back to Kidd..."
Dribbling the ball inward, Parker was able to help defend, but he was already out of position when he came back. Kidd entered from the middle, leaned on Parker, took one step from the free throw line, pulled the ball up, and threw a small floater...
Swish——!
The knife fell from his hand, and the basketball went into the net.
There is still spring even if Kidd doesn't attack. The opportunity given to him is too good. It's more difficult for Kidd to miss a shot than to make one. It's reasonable to score two points!
55 to 57!
"When the Spurs attacked, Ginobili still held the ball from the top of the arc. From outside the three-point line, after the three threats took a step, he broke through in a snake-like step. Subei's defense was broken again..."
This breakthrough technique is Ginobili's special skill. Anyone who tries to defend him will die.
Northern Jiangsu is no exception!
"When the demon sword is unsheathed, there will be blood!
Ginobili's breakthrough is so amazing, you deserve it!
Get inside and the rest is to put the basketball in the basket..."
Swish——!
55 to 59!
With such a loss of points, Su Bei had no choice but to quickly change his mood.
When switching between offense and defense, he sprinted quickly.
Ginobili has technical skills that Su Bei can't handle, but Ginobili is not without weaknesses.
He is almost 34 years old, and physical problems have always troubled Ginobili. He can't even solve problems with physical talent with technology, right?
We can't compare with technology, so let's compare with hardness and length...
"Su Bei rushed to the right corner, crossed the baseline, and came to the basket, looking for Chandler to cover.
The Mavericks also have a lot of advantages on the forward and defensive lines. Ginobili can't withstand Butler's impact, and Jefferson can't help him. Switching defenses is also a result, so he can only follow closely..."
But it's useless. Su Bei and Ben are not afraid of physical exertion. If they are tired and substituted, Marion and Stevenson will come up. No matter which one comes up, Ginobili can eat a pot.
"Ginobili was far away from Su Bei, and Duncan had to defend the basket and it was impossible to follow him.
Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the left, Su Bei was completely empty. He received Kidd's pass, raised his hand, and shot a three-point jumper..."
Parker's help was ignored.
You are 1.88 meters long, what can you do to protect yourself against someone with a length of 1.99 meters?
It's not just a show, betting that Su Bei's three-point pistol is out of bullets.
But with A+-level three-pointers, open shots, and Kidd's comfortable passing, this kind of shot is as easy as daily training.
Swish——!
With the knife in hand, Su Bei returned the favor with a 3-pointer.
At the same time, Ginobili was punished separately.
"Beautiful goal, recovered 3 points, the Mavericks are still behind.
From this point of view, this shot is actually not very harmful, but it is extremely insulting.
Why did Poe Povich let Ginobili play as the 6th man?
Is it because Ginobili's knife is disadvantageous?
No!
There is only one answer, and that is Ginobili’s poor physical fitness..."
Now he is almost 34 years old, but he has to play in the starting lineup and push into the core position of the offense.
How to solve the problem of physical fitness?
Pass-and-cut tactics are not omnipotent. Offensively, Ginobili can indeed play efficiently and save energy.
But Ginobili can't help but defend, right?
Su Bei's three points won't spoil him.
“The Spurs were on offense and Ginobili wasn’t catching the ball anymore.
Parker and Duncan played a pick-and-roll tactic, getting rid of Kidd, dribbling the ball to the basket, like a sports car, playing fast and slow, hitting the board..."
Chandler's turn to block the shot was not slow, but it was still half a beat too slow.
After hitting the basketball board, get into the basket.
Peng, shua——!
Parker scored.
The three carriages of the Spurs are integrated. Ginobili is the core of the offense, which does not mean that Parker and Duncan cannot attack offensively. The difference is only who will be the main attacker.
It doesn't matter who is in good condition, who has a chance, or who the so-called main attacker is.
The important thing is that we can still win, not who is the main assistant or the Big Three of Zhan Weibo. Really, it is unnecessary.
Ginobili's offensive burden is relieved and he can focus on defense.
In the third quarter, he only made 1 of 3 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 4 points, 2 assists, and 1 rebound. His performance was just okay.
With Duncan making 4 of 6 shots, 1 of 1 free throw, 9 points and 3 rebounds, and Parker making 2 of 2, 1 of 3-pointers, 5 points and 1 assist, GDP scored 18 points in the third quarter to help the Spurs. The team clinched the score with a score of 22-22.
At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 77 to 75. The Spurs continued to maintain their 2-point lead.
Fortunately, the Mavericks are not panicking. The Spurs can score points as long as they still have those three carriages.
The scoring ability of the gdp combination is indeed strong, but given their age, the Mavericks are just betting that they can't last. It's just about whose bullets can fly a little longer!
