141 Popovich: Los Angeles shameless, they're cheating
, but the Spurs want to stop the Lakers?
At least Popovich can't think of a way yet.
Without Liu Xing, the Lakers are still a team in the first round of the playoffs and are vulnerable.
But Kobe Bryant and Liu Xing play together, this powerful combination of one inside and one outside, whether it is attack or defense, is the top level in the league.
In the new season, the Lakers can start the season with 20 consecutive wins, not for nothing.
This year, the Spurs are fully healthy, and this is a season in which they are committed to competing for the championship, but it is such a sister, not to mention that there are Celtics in the East, who are the favorites to win the championship, just talk about the opponent in the same district, the Los Angeles Lakers, Popovich also feels that he has won in 7 games with 4 wins.
He was a little discouraged, looked at the Lakers bench, to be exact, looked at the Zen master, and said viciously: "Fei'er, life is really good~"
Look at Liu Xing again, and then look at Kobe, Popovich's face is full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Called a 2-minute timeout, Popovich, who had not arranged tactics, had 30 seconds left in the end, and suddenly, the style of painting changed, no longer depressed, clapped his hands, and the Spurs all emphasized, "The opponent is strong, I underestimated the opponent, this is my problem." I'm sorry.
"But here, it's our home stadium, and there are 18,000 fans here at the ATT Centre who are cheering you on. We're going to fight for them.
"Now, it's still us who is ahead, cheering up, holding on to the win and defending our home dignity.
Popovich said as he circled Liu Xing's name on the tactical board with a red whiteboard marker, and finally, he specifically mentioned: "Bag clip, don't give him any chance to catch the ball, not once."
Listening to Popovich's last tactic, the Spurs generals led by Duncan, all of them had shocked expressions on their faces.
Duncan thought he had heard it wrong, he said, "Put Kobe Bryant, wrap Liu Xing??? "In a team with Kobe, there are teammates at the peak of Kobe, you don't choose to wrap Kobe, but a newcomer.
This is a fantasy in today's NBA.
You must
know that Kobe Bryant is the number one name in the NBA today, and the face of the NBA is in the way.
And Liu Xing is just a first-year newcomer.
Now the legendary coach Popovich actually gave up the bag of Kobe Bryant at the critical moment of the game, and chose to pack a first-year rookie.
Who can believe this?
"Is there a problem?" Popovich gave Duncan a wink, and said as a matter of course.
I heard that even Duncan, who was nicknamed the Stone Buddha, had his pupils shaking, but he didn't say anything, and in Spurs, Popovich's words were holy decrees, and he always said what was something.
"Doodoo~~~" The long whistle sounded, the timeout ended, and the game continued.
2:36, 99-104, the Lakers trailed by 5 points, and the Spurs possessed the ball.
After a timeout, the Spurs played what they do best. Parker broke through, separated, Ginobili, Ginobili, and had no chance.
The ball is given to the leopard print in the bottom corner, which is the dessert position of the leopard print, and on the court, the leopard print is responsible for defending and the bottom corner 3 points, this is his chance.
Opportunities arise.
Leopard print was about to shoot, but Liu Xing on the inside strode to the meteor, he was really afraid of Liu Xing, and after a little hesitation, the opportunity was lost, and he could only pass the ball.
The ball was passed.
But the 24-second offensive time is gone.
Spurs went on another wave of offense with 24 seconds to break the rules.
Lakers ball possession.
Popovich on the sidelines was angry and stamped his feet, he chased after Leopard Print and scolded, "That's your point, why don't you shoot, why not?"
"What are you hesitating about?
The corners of his mouth twitched, he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them, besides, he knew that Popovich never liked to listen to excuses, anything.
He can't say that he is afraid of Liu Xing.
Lakers ball possession.
According to the original plan, the Spurs took a trap on Liu Xing.
For the Spurs, Liu Xing never expected it.
Is Popovich so crazy?
This is a team with Kobe, and Kobe Bryant just hit a 3-pointer, and he's feeling hot.
And Kobe Bryant is one of the best players in the league to play key shots today.
This season, in the last 5 minutes, within a 5-point difference, Kobe Bryant averaged 7.8 points per game, and today, the NBA is the first.
The second place is the Cavaliers James, who averages 4.6 points per game, and James can't even see Kobe's car taillights.
Popovich's change of formation, the Zen master also looked stupid, they actually put Kobe Bryant and sandwiched Liu Xing?
Do you want to be so crazy.
Kobe Bryant also felt crazy.
There is also a sense of disrespect.
However, it was also easier than ever, and it was exactly what he wanted.
Once upon a time, Kobe Bryant could easily go one-on-one, but in the past few years, it has been almost none.
The opponent is unscrupulous against him.
In order to defend him, he poured all his defensive resources into it, including packs, 3-man packs, 4-man packs, and even, to the point that a team was trying to limit him and trap him.
Such a relaxed and comfortable environment, since the shark swims east, Kobe Bryant has never enjoyed it again.
This will, because of Liu Xing's existence, Kobe Bryant enjoyed it.
Kobe Bryant also knew that his helper was coming.
Kobe Bryant holds the ball and plays leopard print one-on-one.
Leopard is a member of the defensive front.
But even so, one-on-one, if you don't go to the bag, it's hard to limit Kobe Bryant, no, it should be said, one-on-one Kobe is unstoppable.
Bryant started the performance at the top of the 3-point arc, facing the leopard print, and shaking his shoulders back and forth continuously.
Bryant's feint was done to the point of being fake, and the leopard print body instinctively shifted its center of gravity high to the right.
It was this moment, a moment, that was enough for Kobe, to dribble suddenly, to the left, Kobe Bryant's first move was fast, lightning fast.
Before Leopard could
figure out what was going on, he had already been left behind.
One step over the leopard print, Kobe Bryant stopped and rose from the ground, the basketball rolled out from the tip of Kobe's index finger, the knife fell, the basketball pierced the heart into the net, and the ball went in with a bang.
101-104
ATT Arena Silent San Antonio Spurs fans' hearts were stabbed into the heart as if they had been stabbed into the heart by a sharp stake, and they couldn't breathe in pain.
Although there are still more than 2 minutes before the end of the game, the Spurs still have a 3-point lead and still have the ball.
But the Lakers have shown this dominance in the past 3 minutes and made them collapse.
The inner line dominated by Liu Xing is airtight, and it is as strong as Duncan's big killer, and it can't attack the city.
And Kobe Bryant is even more needless to say, there is no singles on the outside, who comes and who falls.
The dominance of this combination is daunting.
San Antonio Spurs fans dream of a time when they were dominated by the fear of the OK combination.
Although Liu Xing is just a newcomer, it is too early to compare him with O'Neal, but now Liu Xing's dominance on the field is definitely at the level of O'Neal.
Static talent is first-class, dynamic talent is first-class, and it seems to be a bamboo pole-like figure, but what is hidden in this figure is actually an O'Neill.
It's hard for Spurs fans not to be shocked.
