The Golden Invincible of Basketball

Chapter 6: Father's Day (2 in 1

On June 15, US time, the second game of the finals will continue in San Antonio.

With the first victory at the bottom, San Antonio fans looked a lot easier than they did in the first game.

Even some fans walked briskly and their waist sticks were straighter than before.

With more than forty minutes remaining before the start of the game, the ATT Arena is already packed.

The players from both sides are also making final preparations before the game.

"Keep what we did in the last game and believe in yourself, we will still be the final winner tonight."

Popovich mobilized before the team set off.

After speaking, he took another look at Leonard.

They have found a way to win the series, and now all they have to do is get the details right.

For example, put more restrictions on James.

After Popovich said, the team members got up one after another, ready to leave the locker room and go to the field.

Leonard, as usual, took up the cross and made a final prayer to God.

It's just that tonight he looks more devout than ever.

Half an hour before the game, both players came to the field.

The Spurs' players look defensive, while the Heat are much more serious.

In particular, head coach Spoelstra has a dark eye. He should not have slept well these days.

The first game was a loss for the Heat, but for his head coach, the disadvantage of the post was beyond his imagination.

How to limit Duncan will be a difficult problem for him to think about throughout the series.

After the opening ceremony, the starting lineups of both sides have been released.

The Heat took the initiative to change and Haslem entered the starting lineup instead of Shane Battier.

The Heat didn't play the defensive counterattack they wanted in the first game. Spoelstra was ready to fight with the Spurs.

The Spurs also made a starting adjustment here. Leonard appeared in the starting lineup instead of Green.

The old man seemed to be right about Spoelstra's substitution.

Duncan and Bosh jump the ball.

Duncan continued to suppress Bosh, winning the lead for the Spurs.

Parker went to the frontcourt, and after Duncan sank to the low post, he gave the ball directly.

Duncan has a clear advantage in the post, and at this time the Spurs don't need to run complicated tactics.

But as soon as the ball came in, Chan Moss shrunk the team straight inside.

This is the adjustment of Spoelstra.

And it is an effective adjustment, aimed at Parker's lack of three points.

After Duncan doubled up, he returned the ball to Parker. Parker took a step to the free throw line and chose a mid-range shot.

Chanmoth had collected it so deeply that he had no time to save it.

"Oh!"

Parker's mid-range hollow drop bag.

Although he doesn't have three points, this middle distance is quite stable.

The Spurs come first!

In the Heat's offense, Wade broke the layup with Haslem's pick-and-roll and was interrupted by Duncan.

Duncan took the defensive rebounds, the Spurs pushed to the frontcourt, and the same low-post tactics, Chalmers also received.

Parker throws after receiving the ball.

"Oh!"

Voted there!

A whistle sounded at the scene.

Duncan's excellent play in the first game caught the Heat off guard, but Parker has played a good season this season!

4 to 0.

Although the scores are different, the Spurs have made the same start!

"The Heat didn't find a way to effectively limit Tim." Kenny Smith said in the commentary.

The scoring was all Parker's, but the chance came because of Duncan's holding power inside.

Spolstra's defensive adjustments seem to have failed.

James leaned on Leonard at the frontcourt and then reached for the ball directly.

After receiving the ball, he went straight back and stabbed inward, and went to the basket to take a shot after confronting Leonard.

Leonard stretched his long arms to interfere.

"boom!"

The ball didn't score, but James grabbed the offensive rebound and made up for a scoring after taking a second jump.

Back play is a new technology developed by James this season, but not his favorite offensive method.

But after losing the first game, he couldn't control that much.

Parker gives the ball to Duncan.

Spoelstra waved and shouted on the sidelines.

Chalmers continued to double-team, but the rest of the Heat also started to make up for the defense.

Duncan gave the ball to Parker, who then gave it to Leonard.

"Snapped!"

James Beast came out of the cage and saved the steal!

After the steal, he rushed to the frontcourt.

Parker wanted to stop it and was knocked away.

James rushed to the front like a tank, and the iconic one-handed Tomahawk slammed the score!

After the dunk, James roared.

He vented all the depressing fires of the first game to this one!

4 to 4.

James scored four points in a row to prevent the Heat from falling into a passive situation like Game 1.

Popovich then stood up and walked to the sidelines.

It's rare for Leonard to take the initiative before the game, but it looks like the defensive effect is not good.

It's not that Leonard's defense is not as good as Dior's, but that James' offensive desire is much stronger than in the first game.

If that doesn't work, the Spurs can only double up.

"Kai Huai, you limit him to catch the ball, you can't hold him back one-on-one now."

Tang Tian took the initiative to remind Leonard.

Although James has been questioned a lot, his hard power is the absolute first small forward in history.

One-on-one, even the top Leonard, is the most restrictive for James, let alone now.

So restriction is the only way.

Leonard nodded, except Popovich, who now only listens to Tang Tian.

The Spurs attacked the frontcourt and Duncan passed the ball directly to Leonard this time.

Leonard caught the ball and pulled out, and still has a little Kobe charm.

"Oh!"

However, he did not have the spirit of Mamba, and went straight into the net.

Although James was hit on the defensive end in a row, tonight he looks very good offensively.

"A beautiful shot."

Barkley also spoke at the commentary.

This ball is beautiful, and the key is to make it, which will bring greater defensive pressure on the Heat.

Tang Tian took the initiative to go to Leonard and slapped him.

Playing against James is not easy, and Leonard needs that kind of encouragement.

James continued to turn his back to get the ball.

Leonard then chose the semi-winding front.

Chalmers did not dare to give the ball to Wade.

Wade walked around, glanced at Leonard's position, gave James a look, and then threw the ball directly over the rim.

James understood it, turned away from Leonard, jumped to catch the ball with one hand in the air, and smashed it into the basket!

Air Relay!

Jenway is connected!

"Oh!"

This dunk dazzled fans at the scene.

James' physical fitness is really against the sky!

Popovich reached out and rubbed his jaw.

It looks like James will be in big trouble for the Spurs tonight.

The catch was successful, and the Heat's bench was boiling.

The sadness on Spoelstra's face finally dispersed.

With James playing like this, the Heat can take the initiative on the court.

Basketball games are all relative. How the Spurs defend James is a bigger problem than how the Heat defend Duncan.

After all, where is Duncan's age, and playing time is limited, but James can directly fill the man in the audience!

"My fault."

Tang Tian took the initiative to find Leonard at this time.

"I should control Wade's passing."

Neither player did a good job defending the ball just now, but Tang Tian took over responsibility all at once.

Leonard's defense against James, whether he can do well, is the most important for the Spurs.

Dior didn't score a pass from Duncan's post, Haslem protected the defensive rebound.

The Heat attacked the frontcourt, and James continued to demand the ball on his back.

After the success of the previous air relay, the Heat grabbed James and hit him dead.

This is to wave up the momentum.

Leonard continued half round.

Tang Tian also gave Wade enough pressure at this time.

Wade chose to hang the ball high.

James jumped to catch the ball.

But Leonard's ball was very clever, and he faced it before James jumped.

James jumped the ball without grasping it and slid out of bounds.

"It seems that LeBron should rub some magnesium powder into his hands before the game, instead of throwing it into the air."

O'Neill said.

Buckley and Smith already laughed aside.

O'Neal had previously talked about Kobe, but now he is also hurting James.

It seems that he did not accidentally hurt his former teammates, but caught him in the dark!

Tang Tian reached out to Leonard and applauded him at this time.

Popovich looked at the details on the field, a smile appeared on his face.

Tang Tian really saved him a lot of heart.

In the frontcourt offense of the Spurs, Tang Tian came out of Leonard's pick-and-roll, received Duncan's pass, and shot three points against James.

"Oh!"

Hands up and down.

The Spurs scored 9-6 again!

Cheers broke out at the scene.

The deterrence of the little emperor's defensive end is really useless here in Tang Tian!

Spoelstra rubbed his face hard at the sideline at this time.

He is not surprised by Tang Tian's shot, it is Tang Tian's ability to shoot.

As Smith said in the commentary, the Heat's old problem is still Duncan.

Although Duncan hasn't scored yet, he has given out three assists.

He then looked at James.

If Duncan really can't limit it, then he can only watch James play.

As long as James can play, that's like the Heat said, the Heat will still have an advantage.

James changed the ball to attack in the frontcourt.

After getting the ball, he signaled his teammates to pull away at the three-point line, and then stepped down continuously.

After glancing at the Spurs' defensive position inside, he suddenly rushed in.

"Snapped!"

But the moment he started, Leonard broke the ball in his hand!

Death twines!

Leonard made his own fast break after stealing.

This steal occurred at the three-point line, and the other members of the Heat did not respond.

Leonard rushed to the frontcourt, slamming a two-handed dunk before James chased and blocked.

11 to 6!

A whistle broke out at the scene.

"Oh, this young man is in great shape tonight."

Barkley shouted at the commentary.

One caused James to make a mistake and one directly steals James.

Leonard's defense in these two rounds was really powerful.

Tang Tian gave another high-five to Leonard who returned.

Tonight, he's ready to go.

He's going to take the mini five doubles, five reminders, five high fives.

James didn't attack again in the frontcourt.

He is the kind of player with a high quotient, and seeing that he has no absolute advantage in the matchup, he began to actively give the shot to the players.

Popovich nodded with satisfaction.

To do this, Leonard has met his expectations.

Wade scored a goal in the frontcourt to help the Heat continue to score.

Although the regular season has been troubled by some injuries, the Flash has been very good this season.

Zip's hammer tactics in the frontcourt of the Spurs, Tang Tian's position hindered the Heat's defense.

Duncan passed to Dior and Dior gave the ball to Leonard.

Leonard has an open three-pointer.

"Oh!"

The 3-pointer went straight into the net!

Leonard has made 3 of 3 shots in this quarter and has scored 7 points!

Not only is he strong on the defensive end tonight, but his offensive performance is also very eye-catching.

Tang Tian was really happy for Leonard at this time.

If Leonard can also grow up, then if the two of them start together, it will definitely be a great test for the opponent's forwards.

And in the long run, he must be the core of the team, and he will need a strong defensive player.

Even Michael Jordan had Scotty Pippen beside him.

Wade is in good shape tonight. After James was restricted by Leonard, he began to create more opportunities for Wade.

However, Wade's defensive pressure on the Spurs is obviously less than James.

Coupled with Tang Tian's defense, Wade's scoring efficiency is not particularly high.

The Spurs won a little point each quarter, entered the final quarter with a double-digit lead, and withstood the Heat's last quarter counterattack, steadily winning the game 101-93.

Statistics.

Over the Heat, James had 22 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists. Wade scored 29 points and Bosh had 21 points and 1 rebound.

On the Spurs side, Duncan scored 16 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in triple-doubles.

Parker had 23 points and 5 assists, Ginobili had 14 points, Tang Tian had 11 points and 3 rebounds, and Diaw had 10 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists.

Restrict James, restrict role players' play, and build inside advantage.

The Spurs played everything Popovich wanted in this game.

And they also harvested Leonard the surprise.

Leonard made 6 of 9 shots, scored 15 points, 10 rebounds and 5 steals, and all the data set a new high in the personal playoffs.

After the game, the Spurs players shouted wildly on the sidelines to celebrate ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ After winning two consecutive home games, they achieved a 2-0 lead on the big score.

Holding two home courts allowed them to fully grasp the initiative of the series.

Leonard sat there alone wrapped in a towel, his body shaking slightly, as if sobbing.

Tang Tian walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

Leonard looked up, his eyes were red, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

"He will see."

Tang Tian pointed his finger at the sky.

Others may think that Leonard is a tear of excitement after his outstanding performance, but Tang Tian knows why Leonard is crying.

Praying so devoutly before the game, working so hard during the game, this reaction after the game.

It's all because of Father's Day.
