Chapter 75 On-the-spot command

The Spurs not only had a timeout, but after the timeout ended, the unlucky Danny Green was also replaced, and it was Ginobili who was replaced.

On the Spurs' first offense of the game, Ginobili used his actual actions to tell everyone why he can be called the Demon Sword. After running back from the outside, Ginobili received a pass from Parker and hit a three-pointer accurately.

Helped the Spurs equalize the score.

Popovich's face also showed a smile again after scoring the three-pointer, but this smile once again did not last long because the Timberwolves also called a timeout on this side.

Popovich turned his head in surprise and looked at Chen Dazhuang, who took out his tactical board and stood up.

And the next operation of the Timberwolves was even more confusing to Popovich, because the Timberwolves also chose to make substitutions, with Budinger replacing Carter.

Not to mention that Popovich couldn't understand this operation. Barkley and Smith on the commentary table also looked at each other. It was very difficult to understand Chen Dazhuang's operation. They could understand it during the timeout, but what the hell did you do when you replaced Carter? This opening

It would be no exaggeration to say that Carter was the hero of the Timberwolves in the one-minute game. He made three fouls by the opponent's shooting guard through repeated operations. It can be said that Danny Green had no chance in the first half.

It can be said that it disrupted the Spurs' pre-match arrangement.

This confusion soon turned into surprise.

After the timeout, the Timberwolves attacked. The Timberwolves played a wonderful combination in the frontcourt, a mismatch formed after a continuous pick-and-roll, and then Yi Jianlian received Budinger's pass. Just when everyone thought

In the end, when the ball ended with Yi Jianlian's shot, Yi Jianlian passed the ball without looking at anyone and sent the ball to Bennett who was standing in the bottom corner and was completely open. The result was naturally no use.

Elaborate.

Bennett, who was unguarded, even had time to adjust.

Whoa! The basketball fell into the basket accurately, and a standard open three-pointer from the bottom corner was scored.

6 to 3, the Timberwolves also responded with a three-pointer.

If Bennett's three-pointer wasn't surprising enough, the Spurs' subsequent offense completely surprised everyone who paid attention to the game and the Timberwolves' timeout and substitutions just now.

After Parker passed the midline, he crossed paths with Ginobili and made a hand-to-hand pass. The basketball was delivered to Ginobili, but the next scene was very amazing. Gino received the ball.

Billy accelerated directly and prepared to charge in, but Budinger was blocked by Ayers who was raised to a high position.

Ginobili thought he had got rid of Budinger. Facing the defender Yi Jianlian, Ginobili was ready to end the battle with a small floater. However, at this time, Ginobili heard from his teammates:

The reminder sounded, and the next thing Ginobili saw, the basketball he threw was slapped by Budinger who was chasing after him and flew out.

The Spurs fans in the stands also screamed.

After landing, Budinger staggered a little. Oden supported him, then hugged his shoulders and shook him hard a few times. Ginobili only saw that the ball he threw was slapped by the opponent.

I didn't see the whole process, but others saw it clearly. After being blocked for a moment, Budinger bypassed Ayers, and then moved extremely fast in the next two steps. The most critical thing was the judgment of the last step.

"Oh oh oh oh, Chase Budinger, this defense is so beautiful, Fuck, Manu has met his opponent."

"We were all wondering about the Timberwolves' substitutions, but Chase used practical actions to tell us why Chen replaced him."

Ginobili also gave Budinger a hard look. This ball was indeed completely beyond his expectation.

What he didn't know was that there were many things that were beyond his expectation.

The basketball went out of the sideline, and the Spurs still had the ball. Ayers served the ball from the sideline.

The Timberwolves' defense put enough pressure on the Spurs. Ginobili continued to use the screens of his teammates and then ran back. Finally, Ayers saw the opportunity and immediately sent the ball directly in the direction of Ginobili, but the basketball flew out.

Ayers regretted it later. When the basketball was about to fly to Ginobili's hands, a hand suddenly appeared and stopped the flight of the basketball.

It was Budinger again, directly interrupting the Spurs' sideline serve. The basketball that changed its flight path was also caught in Budinger's arms first. At this time, Ginobili also saw his experience as a demon sword.

He directly went up and stuck to Budinger, delaying the opponent's pass. In this way, other Spurs players also quickly returned to defense. The Timberwolves also lost the opportunity for a fast break. What everyone in the Spurs didn't know was that there was no fast break.

It is the most uncomfortable thing for them.

The ball was handed to Rubio who came to respond, and the two sides began a positional battle again.

It was almost a replica of the Timberwolves' previous offense. The only difference was that Bennett and Yi Jianlian completed the position change. Yi Jianlian, who was standing in the corner, was out of position and faced Ginobili.

Then Yi Jianlian hit a three-point shot in the face, 2.13 meters against 1.98 meters!

Whoa! Yi Jianlian completed a precise three-point jumper!

9 to 3, Popovich frowned when he saw the basketball pass through the frame.

The Timberwolves' offensive tactics are actually not complicated for Popovich, but it is not difficult to break the tactics. What makes Popovich frown is the shooting rate of the Timberwolves' two forwards.

However, two three-pointers are not enough for Popovich to make special changes. The most important thing is that he believes that his players on the court can change this situation, especially Ginobili. He does not think that the opponent's replacement on the court can change the situation.

That No. 10 can really guard Ginobili.

But the rest of the game was a complete slap in the face.

The Demon Knife is the nickname given to Ginobili by the fans. It just so happened that Budinger's performance some time ago also turned into a knife - the Neuro Knife. Today the Demon Knife faced off against the Neuro Knife.

The reason why it is a nerve knife is because of Budinger's performance on the outside some time ago.

Today's game is also a brilliant one, but it's not offensive but defensive.

The Spurs then made three consecutive attacks, and the basketball was handed over to Ginobili. Although the process was different, the result was the same, that is, the Spurs did not score a point. To be precise, Ginobili did not score a point.

have to.

However, in these three rounds of the Timberwolves' offense, the Spurs were stunned.

Three points, all three points.

In three rounds, Yi Jianlian took two shots and hit one of two, while Bennett made one hit.

15 to 3, the first quarter of the game was only 3 minutes and 13 seconds old.

The Timberwolves directly turned the lead into double digits.
Chapter completed!
