Chapter 140 Defeating Self Is Also a Victory
The Spurs GDP should be able to empathize, especially Duncan, who has been in the NBA for seven years, and the fans at home are such enthusiasm.
Although the ball made the scene rejuvenated, the Spurs still did not panic, still holding a 6-point advantage, and they really started to explode in the third quarter after being slow.
Parker was not in a hurry, and it took only 6 seconds to cross the midfield line. With a strong inside line, they can play positional warfare and slowly grind the Cavaliers.
Fearing that Parker would be cornered by Ling Bo, Ginobili and Bowen came to support him.
Parker gave the ball to Ginobili, and Newbell opened his arms. He was stronger than Ginobili in average size, but a little clumsy in terms of speed.
Ginobili made a shift to open up the space, and then broke through. James immediately made up for the gap, but the European step was really hard to defend. Ginobili broke through the basketball again, giving Duncan a rebound.
The European step is not very common in this era, so it is more difficult to defend. Ginobili has grasped the essence of the European step and improved it, known as the "serpentine breakthrough".
Changing the offense, Ling Bo took the ball across the midfield and heaved a sigh of relief. Bowen was still marking. By the third quarter, Parker had joined the ranks of assisting defense.
He is not afraid of double-teaming, and cares about assisting defense. Ling Bo came all the way in double-teaming.
Lingbo started with small steps, changed direction, and quickly passed Bowen. Facing Parker's supplementary defense, he dribbled the ball and turned around. A series of movements flowed smoothly, and the audience cheered again.
However, the cheers stopped abruptly as soon as they started. Limbo didn't intend to dribble towards Duncan, but Duncan moved to Limbo's front to cut off the passing route.
Ling Bo's heart skipped a beat, his steps slowed down, and he thought to himself: It's over, I'm going to be hated.
Sure enough, the more you fear something, the more things will happen. Duncan intercepted Lingbo's layup in the air with a solid cap, and the basketball fell into Lingbo's hands. He made another strong layup, and Duncan shot the basketball flying again. .
James on the sideline immediately flew to save the ball. After Newbell received the ball, he was double-teamed by Ginobili and Parker. In order to keep the ball, the Cavaliers immediately pressed a timeout.
Facing Duncan, Ling Bo actually forgot his internal strength and Tanyun hand for a while, and even the most skilled Lingbo's micro-steps also appeared sluggish, this was entirely due to his heart.
If these two blocks were at the Spurs' home court, it would not be overwhelming, and the Cavaliers' home court sighed.
No one is perfect, and when everyone makes mistakes, everyone may be hated, even Duncan himself is no exception.Maybe some fans sighed because they didn't hit the ball, but more fans still trusted Limbo. It's not ashamed to face Duncan being blocked. What they sighed was the strength of their opponents.
Back on the bench, Ling Bo calmed down, took the water offered by Kevin Ollie, and took a big sip.
"Ling, relax, relax." James kept saying, while Kevin Ollie stretched Ling Bo's muscles, rubbed his arms, and patted his thighs, looking like a younger brother.
"Can I adjust myself?" Ossorsky asked.
Ling Bo nodded, closed his eyes, and didn't say a word, no one knew what he was thinking.
So what about the best defensive player, what about defending for a while, he is just a person, why should I be afraid.It's not difficult to avoid Duncan's block. Tan Yun's hand is light, he can change hands in the air or pull the bar. When shooting, he only needs to lean back.
One-on-one, Limbo is not afraid of small players fighting big players. His speed and various skills allow him to deal with big guys, and at the same time he can turn them around.
Ling Bo's meditation with closed eyes was terminated by the sound of the end of the timeout. He stood up and re-entered the stage. Xia Liu said: "The universe is undecided!"
Ling Bo nodded, looked back and smiled, that's what he often said to Ling Bo.
Reappearing, Ling Bo looked in Jiang Chaoxue's direction, and many fans also looked in the direction of Ling Bo's gaze. Jiang Chaoxue raised his arms and waved his fists to cheer Ling Bo, with a smile on his face. Ling Bo has great confidence, she will unconditionally believe in herself and support herself.
In order to keep his daughter from attracting so much attention, Jiang Lixin also gave Ling Bo a thumbs up.
Ling Bo nodded, and walked onto the court confidently. This time, he will face Duncan directly, so he doesn't need to be afraid.
The Cavaliers served the frontcourt ball, and it was undoubtedly given to Lingbo. The teammates also knew that Lingbo was going to open the singles, so they gave up space.
Knowing that there are tigers in the mountain, he prefers to go to the mountain. Although thousands of people will go there, this is heroism. Lingbo's adrenaline secretion, this time he broke through with the ball, he was a little excited.
Tan Yun controlled the basketball with his hand, and suddenly pulled to the right, a very realistic fake move to deceive Bruce Bowen, and then seized the opportunity to charge in the open.
After passing Bowen, passing Parker, and facing Duncan again, in order not to let himself fall into the predicament of double-teaming, Ling Bo didn't stop dribbling and strode to the basket.
Duncan, the patron saint of the basket, was waiting for him. Limbo finally took this step and made a reverse layup with the pull bar on the basket. Duncan's block fell through.
After landing, Limbo clenched his fists tightly. Duncan, like Garnett, O'Neal and others, no matter how good the defense is, there will be gaps.
"Pretty." James clapped Ling Bo's hands again.
"This is the first time Ling has scored in front of Duncan since today's game." Charles Barkley said.
Mark Price said, "Yeah, but with the first time there's a second time."
That's why, in the following games, Limbo made layups in front of Duncan more than once, and the success rate was extremely high.
Although Limbo's performance is two-eyed, the Spurs are doing their part. How can GDP's scoring ability be underestimated? The Spurs, which are blooming internally and externally, did not give the Cavaliers a chance.
By the end of the final quarter, the Spurs had opened the score to 15 points. Ling Bo and James struggled to catch up, but they were still unable to recover.
To limit a Parker and half of Ginobili, but no one can defend Duncan. Even if the Cavaliers put on a double-center lineup and strengthen the defense inside, Duncan can still score at will.
Duncan has a certain long-range shooting ability, especially his flanking goals are even more signature.
"With a 12-point difference, there is not much time left for the Cavaliers." Kenny Smith sighed, with 3 minutes left in the final quarter and a 12-point difference, facing the defending champion, I am afraid no one can overcome it.
What's more, the Spurs are still taking a steady route. The Cavaliers will not withdraw their main force, and they will not take the initiative to withdraw GDP.
"I think the Cavaliers have shown enough toughness in this game, especially the Cleveland Twins. They did not disappoint the fans. Although they still lost in the end, their fighting spirit is worth learning from most players." Mark - "Sometimes it's a victory over yourself," Price said.
