So far in the Western Conference semi-finals, the Spurs' regular season selection has proved correct, with the Mavericks and Thunder's lineups largely restraining the Spurs, and their desire for victory is higher than the Clippers.

The defending champions' lineup is also strong, but most teams with three consecutive championships will experience a downward trend. This is the case with the Lakers' Ok combination, and the Clippers will inevitably avoid the natural law of prosperity and decline.

San Antonio stole the away advantage and then won another goal. Now the probability of advancing to the Western Conference Finals is more than 95%. Today they aimed at their first home victory, striving to turn the score into a 3:0 with no suspense.

The Clippers ranked first in the Western Conference in the regular season, and the Spurs were only fourth. However, after the tests in the first two games, the Spurs were no longer afraid of their opponents. Most of the first quarter, the two teams played hard to solve.

In the opening game, the Clippers brought O'Neal back to the lineup, but at the beginning it was Billups who scored consecutively for the Clippers. He scored the first 6 points of the Clippers, while Ginobili, the Spurs, made him strike back. Before the game, Ji Guomo mocked him for being a gay man, and Argentina's bald head held a grudge. This game was about to make Ji Guomo go back crying.

After the two sides tied 7, 9 and 11 in the first quarter, the Spurs scored 7 points in a row, and the gap was slightly widened.

Ji Guomo then knocked Ginobili away in defense and was called for a malicious foul. The Spurs took the opportunity to turn the score into 21:10. His uncoolness allowed the Clippers to be led by a big score on the road.

The veterans of the Clippers stood up again in a critical moment. At the end of the first quarter, McGrady, who came on the bench, made two consecutive three-pointers, Hill made a fake move and shook Kreza. The Clippers narrowed the gap to five points with 18.

In the end, the two teams ended the first quarter with 22:27. The Spurs led by five points.

Ji Guomeng performed poorly in the first quarter, only scored 4 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and was also caught by Parker.

O'Neal, who returned to the game today, performed well, scoring 6 points and 3 rebounds, Billups scored 6 points and 2 assists, and McGrady scored 6 points and 2 assists.

Duncan only scored 2 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist in the first quarter, Parker scored 8 points and 3 assists, Ginobili scored 8 points and 2 assists, and Randolph scored 5 points and 2 rebounds.

The Clippers began to stabilize the formation in the second quarter and gradually narrowed the gap.

Dragic made both free throws, then assisted McGrady to score a three-pointer, Hill then added two more points, Jordan Jr. added icing on the cake, and the Clippers narrowed their disadvantage to 1 point.

George Hill and Neal shot back in time, and the two made three-pointers with the help of positioning cover from outside the three-point line to help the Spurs stabilize their position.

At 9 minutes and 40 seconds in the second quarter, Ji Guomeng returned to the court before he could even sit on the hot side, but he didn't feel tired. This season, as long as he didn't work hard on both offense and defense, he wouldn't be tired as a dog when playing the whole game. Ji Guomeng's athletic ability and physical condition reached the highest point in his career.

After Ji Guomeng came on the court, he finally scored. He used the strong pick-and-roll to force Blair and Split twice in a row. These two men were soft and the other was short. Ji Guomeng's breakthrough threat was immediately exerted, and he pulled the ball up the ball at one time, and the front-end ** made the two substitutes of the Spurs in the bench look dirty.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Popovich used Randolph to replace Blair. The Spurs had this vicious black bear. Ji Guowei bullying the weak and fearing the strong mentality broke out again. He began to use various fancy dribbling on the outside to try to shake Split away and attack from a long distance.

Although Split is a little soft, his basketball IQ is not low, otherwise it would be impossible for him to play in the Spurs.

If Ji Guomeng is strong against him, it will be difficult for Split to resist the power of the little fox, but this kind of offense that only shakes and does not break through has little effect. Split knows that Randolph is making up for the position behind him, so he doesn't want to shake it. His task is originally defensive shooting.

Charles Barkley smiled and said, "Jordan and O'Neal are not suitable for matching with the Fox Brother. He is now somewhat similar to James. The inside partner needs to help him pull out the defense at the basket so that he can play the threat of his breakthrough. However, Jordan and O'Neal are both players who do not threaten when they leave the penalty area. They blocked the Fox Brother's breakthrough on the court."

Kenny Smith also said: "It's right, but you need to have both mid- and long-distance shooting ability and defense. There are not many such players, including Valaijo of the Nets, Noah of the Bulls, Love of the Timberwolves, Ibaka of the Thunder, Randolph of the Spurs, Garnett of the Celtics, and not many other players who meet the criteria, and these are impossible to trade."

Charles Barkley nodded: "So the Clippers can lower the conditions. They already have Jordan Jr. with good defensive potential. Next season, you can find an inside line with an outside basket and rotate according to the game situation, or simply let Jordan Jr. develop a middle distance, although I think this is unlikely."

George Hill broke through and responded with a goal at the basket. Randolph scored 5 points in a row with free throws. Duncan dunked Jordan Jr. after he came on the court. The Spurs scored a 9:2 attack wave and led by 9 points.

Ray Allen did not perform much today. He only made his first three-point shot before the end of the half, but Parker made a series of breakthroughs and the Clippers fell behind 44:50 in the first half.

Ji Guomeng and Lei Allen seemed to have missed their stealth skills in the first half. At the end of the half, the Fox brother only scored 11 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks in his personal data.

Perhaps for others, this report card is already very good, but as the scoring leader Ji Guomeng, if he doesn't get 30 points in a game, it will be an unqualified performance in the eyes of fans. Scoring 35 points is his normal level. Scoring 40+ can be considered as an outstanding performance. He only scored 11 points in the first half, which is obviously a bad performance.

After the game changed places, the Spurs continued to have the advantage with their lives, Ginobili scored 5 points in a row, and Billups won the team's first 6 points in the second half, but the Clippers were still 7 points behind.

Ji Guomo is still in a bad state today, especially when Randolph hit his nose when he broke through. After seeing the redness, the dead fox began to float and beat the outside line again.

Randolph was shown a skilled foul this time, and Ji Guomo can continue to hit the basket and try to beat the fat man.

But the Dead Fox was a little brave, and he handed the task to Iguodala and O'Neal.

Iguodala made consecutive breakthroughs, but only made a foul on Randolph. The Clippers failed to score in several rounds. The difference between the two teams reached 11 points, and the killing tactics were obviously unsuccessful.

At the critical moment, Ray Allen unexpectedly dribbled the ball to the basket, and successfully turned Randolph into a four-foul.

Ji Guomeng said that he was awesome, but this is nonsense. Lei Allen is already 36 years old and has not won a championship ring so far, so he doesn't care about his old bones at all. He is not as caring as he does.

Randolph was beaten by the Clippers, and the Spurs' inside defense could not withstand the Clippers' attack immediately. After half of the third quarter, if Duncan had not scored 4 points in a row at the critical moment, the Spurs would have been equalized by the Clippers, and they would have only led 62:58 at this moment.

The Clippers no longer dared to be careless today, but it was still difficult to overtake the score. Ji Guomeng's shooting percentage of 6 of 16 shots must be blamed. Today, he only scored 2 goals at the basket and his outside shots were always hitting the iron.

Parker and Ginobili helped the Spurs score 4 points in a row amid the cheers of home fans, and the score was widened to 8 points. Old Dunleavy had to call a timeout.

After Popovich's timeout, he unexpectedly replaced Randolph and didn't care about four fouls. The Spurs' current task is to widen the score gap as much as possible in the first three quarters. Even if Randolph left the court after the third quarter, they still had Duncan to put the team in the fourth quarter.

Billups and Iguodala missed a three-pointer. Although Ji Guomeng caused Randolph's fifth foul at the basket, the Spurs still widened the gap to 12 points in the last two minutes of the quarter.

The Clippers were helpless against Parker and Ginobili's breakthrough today. Iguodala and Billups were suppressed by two international players of the Spurs with light and fast playing styles. The two failed to gain the upper hand like they were against the Lakers in the first round. This is a style of incompatibility.

Before the end of the third quarter, Randolph was indeed beaten into six fouls, but the Spurs successfully turned the score into 80:65, leading the Clippers by 15 points in the third quarter.

The Clippers are never willing to let the mermaid meat, and the counterattack in the fourth quarter is expected.

Ji Guomeng did not rest in the second half. After the fourth quarter, the Fox brother broke through and made a layup for the first attack, causing Splider to foul, and scored 3 points in a row with free throws. Then he broke through on the wing, and made a fake shot and shot to shake Kreza, causing a foul, almost making two plus one.

As soon as the fourth quarter began, Ji Guomeng scored 5 points in a row, narrowing the score gap to 10 points.

The Spurs did not show panic when facing the Clippers' counterattack. Ginobili broke through and passed the ball, assisted Neal to make a three-pointer, and the Spurs quickly stabilized the situation.

Ji Guomeng seemed to have just woken up in the fourth quarter. Two minutes later, he successfully scored a three-pointer against Duncan's defense, and then covered Parker's layup on the defensive end. The Clippers chased the score to 76:85, and the difference returned to single digits.

The Spurs relied on GDP to score points in the fourth quarter. Ginobili and Duncan performed pick-and-roll cooperation on the outside. The Argentine scored 3 points with a screen, bringing the score gap back to 12 points again.

The two teams then remained stalemate between 9-12 points until the last five minutes of the game entered the Clippers suddenly increased their defense and began to press and defend the Spurs all over the game.

The Spurs chose to use long passes to crack the double-team. Ji Guomomori once again sent a block with his super moving speed and still abundant physical strength. This time the victim was Duncan, and the Fox brother pressed Duncan's dunk. Then he used his long arm to steal from outside the three-point line and scored another two points.

Ji Guohuo finally broke out. The Spurs fell into a scoring drought under the Clippers' full-game pressing defense, and the score was quickly tied to 84:89.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Popovich immediately used his trump card to chop sharks!

O'Neal performed well in the fourth quarter. Ji Guomo's offensive end attracted defense for him, assisting the Sharks twice to score at the basket, but once they encountered the Shark chop tactic, O'Neal was powerless, and they could only look at his touch and luck today.

The Clippers and O'Neal were obviously not lucky. They made four consecutive free throws, and O'Neal only scored one, but the Spurs hit a three-pointer in two attacks, and the score became 85:92 again.

In the fourth quarter, Dunleavy replaced O'Neal at 3 minutes and 05 seconds. The fat man's free throw shooting percentage of 2 of 6 shots widened the score gap to 8 points. The Clippers could only choose to replace this guy who would never be able to practice free throws well.

Ji Guomeng is still in excellent form. In this quarter, he has scored 12 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks. Once the Spurs have no metal shield defense in the interior, Ji Guomeng's power cannot be suppressed. Randolph's importance to the Spurs is obvious. Although his defense is not top-notch, he just restrains players like Ji Guomeng.
