Ginobili walked to the sideline, and the Spurs doctor immediately went to seize the time to deal with it.
Li Yan felt a little headache, but he still liked pure competition.
Although Li Yan is not afraid of confrontation, he has no idea how unlimited Popovich is.
By the middle of the second quarter, both sides replaced their starters one after another.
Li Yan was replaced to rest. In the last game, Li Yan was so tired that he went to the hospital and sounded the alarm for George Karl.
George Karl doesn't want anything to happen to his "baby bump."
On the field, the bald referee began to tighten the scale of whistleblowing in order to control the situation.
After a series of foul calls, the players on both sides restrained their actions.
Spurs round.
Parker held the ball for half the game, and Iverson kept a close eye on him.
After arriving in the frontcourt, Parker handed the ball to Duncan in the high post for transition, and he led Iverson to run without the ball.
Duncan gave the ball to Ginobili on the outside. The Spurs continued to pass the ball and played very patiently.
The Spurs' final finish was completed by Ginobili.
Ginobili's finishing ability in a short period of time is quite strong. Although he received heavy attention from the Nuggets, he still relied on his strong personal ability to put the ball into the basket in this round.
Nuggets offense.
Anthony "bukkaked" Michael Finley from beyond the three-point line and made a hollow hit.
The Spurs are actually very afraid of unreasonable single-point explosions, but Anthony has not yet reached this level.
As an offensive "kaleidoscope", Melo's ability to cause damage is not as good as that of seniors like Kobe and Iverson.
He was not determined enough to attack the inside and relied too much on his own touch.
But Melon is in great condition today.
When Anthony can continue to score goals in one-on-one situations, the situation becomes very simple.
Even if Li Yan is not on the court, the Nuggets are not at a disadvantage.
With 4 minutes left in the second quarter, Li Yan returned to the field.
George Karl changed into a smaller lineup in advance to gain speed.
The Nuggets suddenly accelerated the tempo of the game and caught the Spurs off guard.
A 9-2 spurt brought the score difference between the two teams to 10 points.
"WOW! The Nuggets played very proactively and are 10 points ahead."
"If we fight like this, the Spurs should have someone to take care of it long ago."
"Well done, it would be best to win, but the key is not to get injured, especially Master Li, he is too important to the Nuggets."
"It always feels unsettled. This old fox, Popovich, must have some tricks up his sleeve."
The Nuggets opened up the score, and online fans discussed it enthusiastically.
At halftime, the Nuggets turned away and led the Spurs by 7 points, 48-41.
The Nuggets are in a great situation. If they can maintain their lead, they will take a big 3-1 lead if they win G4.
With such a big advantage, even if Popovich wants to make a comeback, there is little chance. George Karl is not a "pig-headed coach". The old man can't sit on the bench and be a spectator.
Halftime, visiting team locker room.
George Karl made a brief deployment and then did another round of mobilization.
At this point in the game, both teams know each other very well. The victory or defeat mainly depends on the status and performance of the players.
The second half of the game started quickly.
The Spurs seemed to be struggling in the fast-paced attack. With Duncan around, positional warfare was their advantage.
Popovich's adjustment came very quickly, and the Spurs took the initiative to reduce the rhythm of the confrontation. They dragged the Nuggets into a high-intensity confrontation.
Spurs round.
After Ginobili used the screen, he did not get rid of Li Yan who was chasing him.
However, the "Argentine Demon Sword" made a small pushing movement with his hand, so that he gained space.
"Whoa!" Ginobili made an emergency stop and made a jump shot.
"Isn't this a violation?"
Li Yan had a technical foul on him. He didn't dare to argue with the bald referee, otherwise he would be a sinner if he was accidentally sent off by the angry bald referee.
However, "Melon" Anthony couldn't bear to see his little brother being bullied. He went up to argue with the bald referee:
"Manu made a move on his hand and pushed Li. Didn't you see it?"
The bald referee felt a headache. He only felt noise in his ears. It was too noisy.
He ignored Anthony and walked away.
Damn it, "Melon" was a little angry, so he continued to catch up to the referee to ask for an explanation.
"Don't!" By the time Li Yan rushed up to hold Anthony, it was already too late.
The bald referee glared at Anthony and gave "Melon" a technical foul without hesitation.
"Fuck, it's the eighth technical foul. This bald guy is crazy."
"Brother Gua is crazy, he actually applauded the bald head and was sent off for another technical foul."
"There's nothing I can do about it. I, Brother Gua, can't stand it at all."
"Mr. Referee, you are right, it is our fault." Li Yan saw the bald head's hand moving again and quickly interrupted the bald referee's spell.
"Cameron, Cameron." Li Yan pulled Anthony back and said, "Brother, stop talking. Another technical foul will result in a penalty."
Anthony finally calmed down.
But the bald referee's show wasn't over yet.
The bald head, who had just been interrupted by Li Yan from casting a spell, was about to call it a day.
However, when he turned around, he saw Duncan smiling heartily.
Damn, laugh, laugh at you a few times, but the key is that you laugh so obscenely.
It's so vulgar, it's not too much to give it a T!
The bald referee felt that Duncan was laughing at him. He couldn't bear this kind of naked provocation.
Let's go! The ninth technical foul of this game was born.
"Stone Buddha" Duncan, who was "eating melons", received a technical foul because he was suspected of mocking the referee.
Although it is not as exaggerated as the bench laughing and eating T in the previous life, it is still quite explosive.
Duncan was stunned, am I laughing at Anthony and still bothering you? No, you can eat T just by smiling?
Duncan was really dumbfounded now.
Popovich, who had just been gloating about Anthony's T-cheat, was now furious.
On the other side, George Karl was happy. The old man just wanted to say, well done.
Li Yan on the court also looked happy.
Although he was not on the bench, his temperament was still certified by the system.
"Ding! The host witnessed the famous NBA scene: "Stone Buddha" Duncan laughed and ate T (playing basketball is a serious matter, and laughing obscenely is also very dangerous).
Trigger system reward: reward the host with two attribute points! "
Holy shit, it feels so good! Li Yan gave Duncan a thumbs up in his heart:
niCe! If you can laugh, smile more!
…………
Thanks to everyone for the gifts, the amateur player thought about it and risked being fired by his boss and wrote a chapter!
