Chapter 195 195 The Last Hole Card Changes! Changes! Changes!
"He who is afraid of losing has already lost!
Miracles happen every day!
Two wins in a row, why not? "
Zhou Si once again participated in the post game press conference!
He can be willful when winning, but he must stand up and take responsibility after losing!
This is the leader!
At the Spurs press conference, the atmosphere was much more relaxed than that of the Trail Blazers.
"Can you talk about why Manu started tonight?"
The reporter asked questions at the beginning that may determine the direction of the game.
From the wave of attack from the demon knife, the field has completely become the rhythm of the Spurs. This change of formation has contributed a lot!
Moreover, in the first four games of the finals, Ginobili performed quite badly. He averaged less than 10.6% of his field goals, less than [-]% of his three-pointers, and scored only [-] points!
Reporters were eager to know Popovich's train of thought.
"It's an idea that came to mind in the last two days to mention him as the starter, and the effect seems to be good.
Ginobili has always been a competitive player who can stay aggressive and know what to do.
Before the game, he watched the video of the last game. He was full of confidence in his shooting, and he knew that all he needed was to keep shooting.
And that's what he's been doing all his career. "
Popovich seemed to be in a good mood, and it was rare for him to seriously answer the reporter's question.
"Can you talk about Green's progress from last year's playoffs to this year's playoffs?"
The reporters specifically asked about Green hitting 7 three-pointers and scoring 25 points today.
The corners of Popovich's mouth could not help but rise slightly:
"He's been more confident throughout the season and he's getting a lot of minutes now.
He's been doing it for 82 regular season games, and now he's just showing you the playoffs. "
"Can you talk about your feelings after taking down Tianwang Mountain?" the reporter quickly asked.
"We have to go to Game [-], there are no shortcuts, it's not complicated, it's the game.
The opponent's coach will try their best to help them adjust, and the winner will have the last laugh. "
After finishing speaking, Popovich left the field on his own, muttering:
"I'm going back to drink red wine, let's stop here."
……
Zhou Si was not depressed after the loss, not because he scored 47 points, nor because the reporter blamed his teammates, but because he knew that the Spurs had no cards!
Zhou Si has always speculated that Ginobili is the last hole card of the Spurs. When he appears in the starting lineup, it means that the Spurs are fighting, just like today.
The Spurs have no cards, but he does!
"Hey, hey, Coach Nelson, Ji Jiangan out of the Spurs?"
"Hey, it's very simple, you play center forward!"
"McGee is so cute, why should I hit him?"
"..."
……
On May 5, the sixth game between the Trail Blazers and the Spurs continued in the Holy City.
Before the game, the players of the Trail Blazers looked a little weird, and Zhou Si's words kept echoing in their minds!
This request is so unreasonable!
But they didn't dare to resist. Zhou Si said, who dares to be disobedient, he will spray that person to death at the post-match press conference!
After the fiery opening ceremony before the game, the starting players of the two teams appeared one after another.
The lineup of the Spurs remains unchanged, but the Blazers have adjusted!
Point guard: Lillard, shooting guard: Courtney Lee, small forward: Miles, power forward: Casspi.
Center: Zhou Si!
Seeing this lineup, the audience who were going to cheer for the Spurs were a little emotionally incoherent.
Previously, the first and fourth juniors were already deviant, and now they are directly in the five minors? !
Popovich glanced at Coach Stotts. Is this giving up the inside and the whole team making three-pointers?
"Haha, changed again?
This game is fun!"
Barkley was very excited after seeing the Blazers lineup.
Change and strain are always the main theme of the series.
Just like a master playing chess, this is much more exciting than the regular season.
Director Zhang not far away commented,
"This change is very interesting. The first is the response to the Spurs' small ball. The second is to let Matthews, Millsap and McGee take the bench, so that Zhou Si does not have to worry about the second team and has more rest time. .”
The audience in front of the TV was relieved. Zhou Si played 44 minutes in the last game, and the time has reached a career high. This makes the fans very worried about his body!
Immediately after seeing the referee, Director Zhang obviously had playful eyes.
Because today's referee is a superstar killer, especially Duncan's sufferer-Joe Crawford!
Crawford is the most famous and controversial referee in the league.
In 2007, he expelled Duncan who was laughing on the bench in a Spurs game, and even publicly provoked Duncan with words, and was subsequently banned indefinitely by the league.
After that incident, Crawford's reputation in the industry has greatly increased, and he is regarded as a typical referee who likes to steal the show.
However, Crawford is not a referee who only grandstands. On the contrary, he has the most experience in whistleblowing in the playoffs.
Immediately, some trolls jumped out on the Internet and said that the alliance is protecting the Trail Blazers.
clap clap clap!
They were soon slapped in the face, and Zhou Mi came up with a very strong evidence to refute-in the playoffs this season, the Spurs had encountered Crawford as the referee at home twice, but their record was 2 games Total victory.
And the Trail Blazers once encountered Crawford as the referee but lost!
Back to the game, the Spurs home court was silver and gray, and their fans worked hard!
Duncan beat Zhou Si in the sound of cheering, giving the Spurs the opportunity to take the lead in attacking.
Ginobili and Duncan's pick-and-roll assists Duncan's classic mid-range 45° hit!
0: 2!
The Spurs set the record first!
Zhou Si was not annoyed, and took the initiative to serve the sideline.
Today, his main responsibility on the defensive end is to protect the frame. He can only selectively give up jump shots like Duncan.
The Trail Blazers attacked the frontcourt, and Lillard controlled the ball at the top of the arc in the middle. Except for Zhou Si who settled on the right side, the other three opened up space on the left side outside the three-point line!
Just as Zhou Si thought, the Spurs chose to use Leonard to defend him after tangling for a while, Duncan guarded the penalty area, and the other three defended the perimeter.
Popovich frowned.
It is difficult to implement the "1, 2, 3 rule" in this way.
On the court, Zhou Si killer crossover shot Leonard and leaned on Duncan to score!
Surrounded by two people?
Not enough to see!
2: 2!
"Hehe, Xiao Zhou attacked very resolutely today!"
Director Zhang praised!
Popovich muses on the sidelines:
Is it the rhythm of preparing for crazy singles again?
The Spurs attacked, and after passing the ball for a while, Danny Green missed a three-pointer at a 45° angle!
Green's outburst in the last game made Coach Stotts study him. Just now Courtney Lee made a strong interference with Danny Green's three-pointer.
The 45° angle on the right is the most accurate point that Danny Green casts the most.
Zhou Si stuck in Duncan's position to protect the backcourt rebound.
The Blazers' turn.
Still Zhou Si's right singles!
After thinking about it, Danny Green chose to double-team Zhou Si!
wow~
Zhou Si immediately gave the ball to Miles who was open on the outside. Miles hesitated and then missed a three-pointer under Ginobili's interference.
Seeing this, Popovich's brows gradually relaxed again.
The tactical idea is good, but unfortunately the execution of the players is too poor!
In this game, our Spurs will have the last laugh!
