The Spurs' performance in the first quarter disappointed Min Congda.
Why aren't you dead pigs afraid of being scalded by boiling water?
I used harsh words to stimulate you before the game, but why don't you all share the same hatred and unite as one?
Where are the tricks you guys used to step on Kobe and knock Nash away, show me?
You are all scared. Are you afraid that I will cause trouble for you?
I promise, no popcorn first.
"Is the occasion wrong? This is the home court of our Clippers. What I said before the game will not only irritate the Spurs, but also irritate our Clippers, making us Clippers players fight hard to make me look bad. Woolen cloth?"
"Impossible, how can they have that kind of consciousness? It would be great if these bastards don't spread rumors about me, but they still give me face? Haha."
Min Congda quickly rejected this idea.
It is said that children are the best in a family, but students are always the worst.
The Clippers team was put together bit by bit by Min Congda based on his bad ideas.
Although the results were good, in his inherent impression, this was the worst class.
The Western Conference's eighth-place team is mostly lucky. As for the 2:0 lead in the series, the Spurs are too weak.
His attention was focused on the Spurs' dish, but he failed to notice how reasonable and smooth the Clippers played.
Under the guidance of Cole and Dunleavy, the Clippers' offense and defense were orderly and they played in an orderly manner.
Although there are many young players, they are all players with high IQs, who learn quickly and play steadily.
Curry, Harden, and Dragic are all young and mature, and they have the feeling of being experienced when playing at a young age.
Curry is a little out of touch, but he is much better than those brainless young players.
At the end of the first quarter, the Clippers were 30:20, leading the Spurs by 10 points.
The Spurs' offense was so bad that it left people speechless, and Duncan failed to shoulder the offensive banner at all.
It's not that he didn't want to, it was just that he really couldn't score. Except for eating the pie once, several attempts failed.
Popovich looked solemn, and assistant coach Budenholzer said: "Let Manu attack more."
The Spurs' saying that they rely on Parker in good times, Duncan in bad times, and Manu in desperate times is really not a joke.
It's not that Ginobili is better than Duncan, but Duncan is the foundation. If Duncan's foundation is good, the game will be smooth.
In good times, Parker can play smoothly and widen the gap. Especially when he is abusing his opponent, he is particularly stable.
In 2007, the Spurs beat the Cavaliers badly. Duncan laid the foundation and Parker played his best and won the Finals MVP.
Once Duncan's performance is mediocre and his foundation is not solid enough, the team has no other options and will have to rely on Ginobili in desperate situations.
Like in the 2005 Finals, Duncan's performance against the double Wallace was not considered dominant, but Ginobili's breakthrough was the fundamental factor that killed the Pistons.
So many people say that in 2005, the league owed Ginobili a Finals MVP.
Now, let alone the finals, the Spurs were in dire straits in the first round.
Duncan's performance is no longer average, but his performance is very poor. Parker cannot be counted on.
At this time, Yaodao, who has strong breakthrough ability and offensive imagination, is an unknown factor in the Spurs' monotonous system.
It's Popovich's last hope for a comeback.
Budenholzer's bitter face still contains some wisdom.
Popovich knew what he said was right. During the break, he handed over the team's offensive power to Ginobili.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Spurs suffered another blow. James Harden received a pass from Dragic in the corner and hit a three-pointer!
Then, Parker broke through the basket and missed a layup, and Split still missed a tip-in.
The Clippers counterattacked, Harden slowed down the rhythm, and then suddenly accelerated to the basket and passed the ball to Randolph.
Randolph missed a layup, but he grabbed an offensive rebound and made a tip-in!
35:20, the score difference reached 15 points, which really made someone desperate.
After Curry came off the court, Harden began to dominate the offensive rhythm on the court.
Curry is the knife, Harden is the hammer, and the pumpkin hammer.
Many people think that hammers must be heavy and heavy.
Like in the novel, the hammer weighs several hundred pounds and is bigger than a human head.
You have to ride a horse even if you carry a hammer weighing five to six hundred pounds with a man and you, what kind of horse can bear it?
With such a strong horse, the Poles would not lose.
The head of a real hammer is small, very heavy and does not affect flexibility.
Just like Harden's style of play, it is full of weight and full of spirituality.
He doesn't weave in and out of opponents' territory the way Curry does.
He will slow down, charge up, accelerate, and directly impact the opponent's formation.
At the same time, he also pays attention to the position of his teammates and passes the ball to them anytime and anywhere.
When Curry is on the court, he is the core point, but not the first organizational point.
He often needs to be paired with Gasol and Baron Davis to achieve maximum effectiveness.
Harden is different on the court. His little hammer is the first organizational point, and everyone can surround him.
Randolph, Paul George, including Dragic.
From this point of view, Harden's role is actually very similar to Ginobili's.
Ginobili is known as the Demon Sword, so Harden is naturally the Monster... This nickname is ugly enough.
The Spurs were in trouble, the demon sword was out of its sheath, and Ginobili couldn't make it on his own.
Instead, he uses his wide vision to break through and score, catch the ball, and score again.
Parker in the bottom corner received the ball and went to the basket, and then passed to Blair who cut in for a layup.
Then the Spurs successfully defended and Ginobili advanced with the ball again.
Suddenly a long-distance pass went straight to the basket and then to Blair.
Blair caught the ball and hit another layup.
The Spurs need scoring like this.
The 15-point deficit didn't break them.
Then, the Spurs caused Harden to make a mistake on defense.
Counterattack, Ginobili advanced and passed a long pass to Jefferson.
Jefferson's layup caused a foul on Paul George.
He went to the free throw line and made two free throws, 35:26, and the point difference was narrowed to 9 points.
The Spurs are a very tough team.
Ginobi uses his accurate scimitar passes to create opportunities for his teammates.
During the official timeout, the television cameras kept showing Ginobili.
His right arm was strapped with a very thick brace to protect his elbow joint.
After the timeout, Randolph asked for the ball in a low position.
Randolph now likes to ask for the ball in a shallow position.
Although it will be more tiring to hit the ball behind the back, the choice is more flexible and the position is easier.
He can play from behind, he can Sigma turn to face the basket, he can support, and he can also show off his skills and pass the ball behind the back!
This time, Randolph made a behind-the-back pass to Dragic, who was cutting to the basket.
Dragic caught the ball and made an easy layup!
Beautiful passes, beautiful goals, the Clippers' offense was silky smooth.
The white towel at Staples Center is waving again!
The pizza in Min Congda's hand had long since lost its flavor, and he thought to himself: "Damn it, who taught him to play like this? Who told him to pass like this? Zach, Zach, you're a bad learner. You can't learn from anyone." You really failed to live up to all my hard work."
