The Clippers made the second attack and the basketball was handed to Artest, who was on the low post on the right.

One of the two brothers pulled to the top of the arc and the other to the opposite flank position, giving the beast a one-on-one chance.

Michael Finley was misplaced against Artest, and his tonnage could not withstand the beast. Last season Artest made Duncan very passive with the Kings. This season, the Clippers' twins were too strong, covering up Artest's threat on the offensive end.

Spurs players dare not be distracted to assist in defense. The twin brothers and Billups involved most of their defensive energy. At this time, they could only rely on Finley to defend Artest one-on-one.

The two of them fought one-on-one, but there was no big suspense. The 29-year-old Artest could easily solve the 34-year-old Finley with just the power. The beast's offensive movements were not good-looking and the speed was not fast, but it was very practical. He turned around at a low position and relied on his own body to cover it, and easily scored two points.

In the first quarter, the two teams became a contest between Artest and Duncan on the offensive end. The beast kept hitting the inside with its physical advantage. Although his breakthrough and back were not changed, his skills were average and very ugly, in one-on-one situation, few people could block his 260-pound weight alone, which perfectly interprets what one force is to reduce ten goals!

Uncle Bao was useless in his face with Artest, and he accidentally turned around and elbowed him in the head. This was the first time Uncle San was so embarrassed.

The first quarter ended with a score of 24:20, and the Clippers led by 4 points to finish the first quarter.

The twins only received a few passes after attracting double-teams in the first quarter, and scored a few points with mid- and long-distance shots. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that. Today, the Clippers no longer use these two as the offensive axis. They are now just playing a restrained role. They use their shooting ability to open singles for Artest and Billups.

The two brothers were replaced by Old Dunleavy in the last four minutes. Ji Guochou scored 2 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block, Ji Guomo 3 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block, Billups 5 points and 2 assists, Artest scored 8 points and 2 rebounds.

The Spurs still relied on continuous passes, covers and interludes to create scoring opportunities in the first quarter. Duncan is abnormal today, but Parker doesn't know if his nose is crooked. He feels particularly bad today, and he shoots several times. GDB combination last, Ginobili's performance is when the twins put all their energy on the defensive end. It is also difficult to break through to the end of the inside. He only makes two shots from the outside, and his performance can only be said to be average.

Duncan scored 10 points and 3 rebounds, Ginobili scored 5 points and 2 assists, Bowen scored 3 points and Finley scored 2 points.

The Spurs actually faced the problem of the previous game today, that is, their substitute scoring ability is not enough. If Finley hadn't had the offensive end yesterday, he gave the team unexpected fire support in the first three quarters. The Spurs could not wait for Ginobili to explode in the last quarter and were killed.

Today, they relied on Duncan's outbreak in the first quarter and were still behind after the first quarter. Once someone in the GDP three is not in shape, the Spurs will inevitably fall behind. This is their biggest hidden danger, because you cannot guarantee that the three GDP combinations are in good shape in every game. This is unrealistic.

Artest played the first quarter, and the beasts were very happy today.

Before the All-Star Game, Artest's data began to decline, because the Clippers' first attack point became Ji Guohun, and this little fox is actually a very unique guy. Although the other giant panda has outstanding support skills, at least half of his passes are for his brother.

Artest didn't say that, in fact, he had a feeling of Durant in the All-Star rookie game, that is, once he had the same chance as Ji Guomo, even his chances were better, basketball would definitely not come to his hands. After a long time, the beast would definitely have an objection.

Moreover, Artest was still very outstanding at this time. Even if he was a transitional core in the mid-range team in the league, it would be very valuable to be the third leader in the Clippers, but if the number of shots was still so low, Artest would certainly not be willing to do so.

So the two brothers and Dunleavy didn't know that Artest no longer wants to stay in the Clippers. From being valued at the beginning... to being more outstanding in the twins and becoming the core of the team's focus... Artest, who followed this process, also became the core of the core at the beginning... and finally became a supporting role... Later, he even had to give Garcia a certain playing time...

Artest couldn't accept this kind of change. He thought he would be the boss of the Clippers for two years and give way to the growing twins at that time, but no one expected that these two little guys would grow so fast that he had not even finished the boss for half a season, and was regarded as a role player by Old Dunleavy.

The twins were sent to the court by Dunleavy at the beginning of the second quarter, and the Clippers' lineup became: Brevin Knight, Mobri, Garcia, Ji Guomo and Ji Guoqie.

As soon as Ji Guohuo came up, the attack was unprecedentedly strong!

Artest is unwilling to be a green leaf. Ji Guomo is more disgusted as a supporting role than Artest. In his eyes, no matter whether the game wins or loses, he should be the decisive factor!

He depends on him to win, but he depends on him to lose. This is what Ji Guohuo wants.

Ji Guomo is not afraid of taking responsibility, because he is even more afraid that he is not the focus of the field. Ji Guomo can understand why Iverson refused to play as a substitute after he can't play the main force, and would rather retire directly. If it were him, Ji Guomo would also make such a choice, and I believe Kobe will do this in the future. To put it nicely, these people are proud, but to put it bluntly, they are face.

But it is not a bad thing to take face, otherwise why would Kobe work so hard to train? These guys want to be winners all the time, so they have to work harder than others.

Ji Guoqiu didn't have as many ideas as he did. He thought this was just a normal tactical arrangement. The coach said that he would just fight, and they would fight.

The Clippers suddenly started to play joint defense in the second quarter, which was a bit unbearable for the Spurs' substitutes. These old guys over 35 years old average age cannot withstand such high-intensity defense of the Clippers. The Clippers use joint defense against the Spurs' main players, and the effect is not good in the first game, but against the Spurs' substitutes. This trick is much better.

Ji Guomo scored 5 points in a row on the offensive end. He received a pass from Panda brother from the outside. He made a three-pointer; he broke through the frame and caused a foul, and made both free throws. He was full of energy in the second quarter.

On the defensive end, the two brothers firmly controlled the inside, Thomas and Robert Horry suffered a big loss at the hands of the two brothers. The Spurs were almost paralyzed by the high-intensity defense of the two. Their outside line was double-teamed by three Clippers players, and Ginobili missed two three-pointers. The Spurs did not score in two minutes and were scored a 7:0 small ** by the Clippers.

**Vic quickly called for a timeout. After the twin brother scored five points in a row, Panda brother scored another goal in the low post. In a blink of an eye, they were already 11 points behind.

"It's not them who can fight for joint defense. Since they like joint defense, let's see whose joint defense is more powerful!"

**Vic was ruthless and was beaten into a double-digit score difference in just two minutes. The Spurs coach decided to fight the Clippers!

After the timeout, Duncan and Parker, who had a rest of nearly five minutes, took the field together. Ginobili, who played for one quarter, replaced the Spurs' lineup and became: Parker, Brent Barry, Bruce Bowen, Duncan, and Thomas Old.

The Clippers' lineup has not changed. Old Dunleavy ordered the team to continue playing in joint defense and strive to widen the gap to 15 points in one go.

However, after the game started again, the Clippers players were tied up by the Spurs' joint defense on the offensive end.

After Brevin Knight and Ji Guomom were picked and rolled, they were immediately double-teamed by the Spurs. They wanted to pass the ball but were blocked by the Spurs players.

Ji Guoqiu immediately came to the low post to receive the basketball hand in hand, and then used his height advantage to divide the basketball into Ji Guomo's hand at the far end, who made a three-pointer without defense and hit another shot!

Old Dunleavy was shocked, but then he laughed off the court. Their joint defense was not very effective against the Spurs' main players. It was precisely because of Duncan and Ginobili's support and three-pointers, and Parker's sharp breakthrough. Then the other way around, the Clippers have twin brothers, and they are not afraid of the Spurs' joint defense.

**Vic now felt that one mistake had made a mistake and a lot of losses. Today, the Clippers first used Artest and Billups as charge arrows to disrupt their arrangements, and then let the twin brothers exert force during the bench period to form a continuous firepower coverage and create a continuous blow to them!

The Clippers have now gained a big enough advantage, and this game is not very good for the Spurs.

The score was 34:20, Ji Guomo made this three-pointer, and the Spurs were already 14 points behind.

Duncan continued his good touch on the offensive end. Parker broke through the pick-and-roll and returned the ball, and Shifo hit the middle distance.

With Duncan on the court, the players began to cut and run empty-handedly around the boss who was releasing the "Buddhist Light" skill. They could finally score stably under the Clippers' joint defense.

After seeing Duncan on the court, the joint defense effect was no longer great, so the joint defense was cancelled soon and the attack and targeted people again.

At 6 minutes and 20 seconds in the second quarter, Dunleavy, the old Dunleavy took advantage of the dead ball to exchange Billups and Artest back on the court. The previous scores of this lineup were also stable. Dunleavy let the twins play for half a quarter with the substitute.

Ji Guomo is somewhat similar to Duncan on the opposite side today. The little fox also felt hot and increased his score by 12 points in the half-quarter game, becoming the Clippers' highest scorer.

The score is 41:30, and the Spurs are still behind double digits.

Ji Guochou scored 4 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks, while Ji Guomomoto scored 12 points, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks.

Duncan scored 14 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Ginobili scored 10 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and Parker scored 2 points.

Old Dunleavy is now a little shaken, hesitating whether to continue to let Artest and Billups act as arrows? The twins still suppress the Spurs in the double-digit score difference with substitutes, which is more efficient than using Artest and Billups as main attackers.

After Artest went on the court, he continued to ask for the ball. Old Dunleavy hesitated, but did not change the pre-match customized strategy, that is, to continue to play Artest and Billups.

Ji Guomeng was reluctant, but he could only continue to focus on defense and rebounding with his brother.

Artest's face frame was thrust hard, and he carried Bowen to the basket with his body...

Uncle Bao San retreated while making small moves, and his feet were very unclean.

Artest is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the beast's hands are also unclear. The two men are half a pound against each other. Two famous villains in the league finally dragged them together under the basket. The beast squeezed Uncle Bao San away with its strong body and threw the basketball out with one hand...

Duncan slapped the basketball on the rebound. Uncle Bao San suffered a big loss in the first quarter on the defensive end and kept thinking about how to defend Artest?

Unfortunately, time is limited, and Uncle San has not come up with a complete solution for the time being, so he can only let his teammates help him. Bowen did not intend to defend this goal by himself. He was planning to delay and wait for support from the beginning, and finally gave Duncan the opportunity to defend and block the shot.

However, the basketball hit the rebound and rebounded directly to Ji Guochou. When Brother Panda faced the big gift, he immediately jumped and made up the dunk, and got two points.

The cheers of the Spurs fans walked high halfway through the way, and at this moment they felt like they were being choked, and their faces turned red!

Today, San Antonio fans were in high morale at the beginning, yelling to send the Clippers to lose two consecutive times and send them to fish... However, as the game progressed, they are no longer as arrogant as before the game, and the result of falling behind by ten thousand is really unlucky.

"Protect the blue version of the backcourt, don't have fast breaks, you need rebounds!" **Vic shouted on the sidelines that the two inside players of the Clippers would go to the basket to compete for the frontcourt rebounds today. Duncan couldn't grab these two brothers by himself, and he had to send extra staff.

The next attack by the Clippers, Billups missed the middle distance.

Ji Guomomoto entangled Duncan with a small move at the basket, and Ji Guochou took the rebound from the old Thomas, and then forced him to make a third foul.

**Vicci could only replace Thomas with Oberto, but the Spurs head coach knew that Oberto was not as good as Thomas in rebounding, and he was 80% more unable to get the twins.

The Clippers are making trouble on rebounding, and this trick really makes **Vicci very troublesome. Their inside height is not enough. Except for Duncan, only Oberto, Thomas and Robert Horry can be used, but these three are only about 206cm tall, and they are at an absolute disadvantage against the twin brothers who are tall, long and able to jump.

"Continue to play like this, we control the rebounds, and they will lose today!"

Ji Guoqiu grabbed frontcourt rebounds in a row, and his mood was high at this time. Today he had already scored 9 rebounds and was almost a double-double in less than half.

"Boss, I'll block you for you and you've got so many rebounds. Don't listen to the old man, pass the ball more later. I feel good today, and it doesn't make sense to play Artest. I'm the protagonist!"
