Chapter 233 The Battle of Texas ([-])
68:64, the Indiana Pacers in the away game have already led the San Antonio Spurs at home by four points!
In the stands of the fans in the AT&T Arena, there was no longer the sound of cheering and cheering like a wave just now, but only pieces of depressing silence remained.
With only the last 3 minutes left in the game, the point difference became four points.
Although the difference of four points does not seem to be that big, it is entirely possible and fully possible to catch up in the remaining 3 minutes, but in such an intense and high-level game now, if you want to catch up with the four points The score difference is actually not as easy as imagined.
More importantly, this game is completely a defensive battle of the tip of the stick.
The whole game is almost over, and the leading side has only scored 68 points so far, which shows how oppressive the defensive intensity of this game is.
Xu Nuo once said before being sent on the field by coach Larry Brown that the score in this game may not even reach 75 points.
And now the Indiana Pacers only scored 68 points. It seems that it is not easy to score seven points in the last 3 minutes of the game.
If the Indiana Pacers want to score 75 points in this game, they still have some opportunities, but as their opponent, the San Antonio Spurs want to score 75 points in this game, it is not easy.If the San Antonio Spurs want to score 75 points, they must score 3 points in the final three minutes of the game, and the Indiana Pacers will not give the San Antonio Spurs this opportunity.
It seems that promised predictions are relatively accurate.
But don't forget, this is the home of the San Antonio Spurs!This arena has witnessed too many vicissitudes and joys in the world, and it has also witnessed the San Antonio Spurs fighting with all kinds of powerful players at the top of the NBA!For this arena that has experienced many vicissitudes, the difference of four points is nothing.
After all, the NBA is where magic happens.
The San Antonio Spurs, who sit at home, don't want to lose this game. They still want to win tonight, and they want to create a miracle.
It's just that catching up with a four-point difference in 3 minutes is not a miracle at all in the NBA game.
The game is fair and it creates a chance for every team participating in the game to win.Facing the San Antonio Spurs who are about to start a counterattack, the Indiana Pacers are ready to face the San Antonio Spurs who want to stage a reversal.
And Coach Larry Brown sent Promise for exactly this purpose, even though the two teams were still on the same starting line when Promise played.
The on-duty referee Jason Phillips blew his whistle, the timeout expired, and the game restarted.
"It is us who hold the lead now. As long as we can defend well in the last 3 minutes, the victory of tonight's game will definitely be ours!" Danny Granger, the captain of the team, said to himself teammates said loudly.
"Want to beat us?" Tony Parker said disdainfully, "You don't have the qualifications yet!"
Xu Nuo bent down and concentrated on facing Tony Parker who was advancing with the ball.Just after Tony Parker dribbles upfield, Tim Duncan comes up high and sets a pick-and-roll for Tony Parker.Tony Parker made a sudden change of direction, using Tim Duncan's screen to go around Tim Duncan.
"Do you think you can get rid of my defense just like this?" Xu Nuo thought in his heart, and at the same time came to Tony Parker again from behind Tim Duncan, continuing to block between Tony Parker and the basket between.
"The kid evaded Tim's screen so easily!" thought Tony Parker on the court and San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich off the court.
And Xu Nuo stared closely at Tony Parker, guarding against Tony Parker's next move.Seeing that Tony Parker, who promised to block him again, didn't panic at all, he just paused for a moment, and then continued to rush towards the Indiana Pacers' basket with the ball.
"Does he want to force his way in?" Xu Nuo thought.
Just as Tony Parker broke through to the basket with the ball, Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert quickly moved laterally to block between Tony Parker and the basket, making it difficult for Tony Parker to make another layup Score.Despite this, Tony Parker still jumped high with the ball against the defensive duo of Promise and Roy Hibbert.
"You don't want to score easily!" Xu Nuo said loudly, also jumping high, trying to block Tony Parker's shot.
However, just after Xu Nuo jumped up, Tony Parker flicked his wrist, and the ball flew towards Manu Ginobili standing outside the three-point line like a cannonball!
"Not good!" Xu Nuo shouted in his heart.
Although Paul George quickly stood in front of Manu Ginobili to interfere with Manu Ginobili's shot at the same time that Manu Ginobili received the ball, Manu Ginobili was still in the game. Shot from outside the three-point line.The ball passed high over Paul George's raised arm, and drew a high arc in the air, passing through the net like a sharp arrow.
"It's really exciting!" The fans around the stadium finally burst into deafening cheers, as if they wanted to release all the previously suppressed emotions.Relying on Manu Ginobili's long three-pointer from the outside, the San Antonio Spurs once again narrowed the gap between the two teams to just one point.
"The San Antonio Spurs are really a very difficult team to deal with!" Coach Larry Brown, who was standing on the sidelines supervising the battle, thought while touching his chin.
After Manu Ginobili made this key three-pointer, he didn't have any special celebrations, but quickly returned to his own half to prepare for defense.But Xu Nuo still saw Manu Ginobili's eyes, sharp as a sword and extremely murderous.
"It seems that in the last period of time, we must be careful about this guy!" Xu Nuo thought in his heart, "Looking at this situation, it is very likely that Manu Ginobili will There was a sudden explosion in 3 minutes."
This time, Xu Nuo was right again, just like he predicted that the score in this game would not exceed 75 points.
Manu Ginobili's outside three-pointer ignited the passion in the AT&T Arena, and when the Indiana Pacers began to attack and the San Antonio Spurs defended, the fans around the stadium heard again. Loud "defensive" sound.However, Xu Nuo turned a deaf ear to this.
"This kid is just a substitute player anyway. Facing such a majestic away game, he will definitely panic." Tony Parker thought while defending.
But Tony Parker was wrong.
After promising to dribble to the frontcourt, he once again handed the ball to the inside power forward David West.At this time, Danny Granger still wanted to use center Roy Hibbert's screen to get rid of Stephen Jackson's defense, but the San Antonio Spurs had seen through this. Manu Ginobili immediately appeared in front of Danny Granger as he circled around Te, while Stephen Jackson went to guard Paul George.Seeing that Danny Granger didn't get rid of his opponent's defense, David West had to single out Tim Duncan one-on-one.
"Shoot at this time..."
Xu Nuo thought so in his heart.
Although David West found a chance to make a hook shot under the defense of Tim Duncan, but at such a critical moment, David West was soft when he shot, and the ball hit the front of the basket , and missed the basket.
"Rebound!" Coach Larry Brown and Gregg Popovich standing on the sidelines shouted almost at the same time. They knew very well in their hearts that the ownership of this rebound would be directly determined to a large extent. The outcome of this game.
The players on the court naturally understood this, and a brutal hand-to-hand fight suddenly formed under the basket of the San Antonio Spurs.
However, at this moment, a figure wearing the NO.13 Indiana Pacers jersey suddenly appeared above the heads of the soldiers under the basket, and with a light lift of his hand, the ball was filled into the basket!
"It's a promise!" Rudy Fernandez, who was sitting on the Indiana Pacers' bench off the field, yelled loudly.
Suddenly, the bench of the Indiana Pacers boiled again.
At this time, both the substitute players of the two sides and the fans in the stands around the stadium all stood up from their seats.Just this kind of situation alone can create invisible pressure on the players on the court, but at this critical moment, Xu Nuo can still easily make a tip-up over the players' heads and score.
San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich looked up at the big screen above the court and seemed about to call a timeout, but held back.Coach Gregg Popovich believes his players are fully capable of figuring things out on their own, as they always have.
Coach Gregg Popovich's idea seemed right for a while, but from the perspective of the whole situation, the San Antonio Spurs lost to coach Gregg Popovich's hesitation this time.
