Chapter 253 Parker Was Covered to Tears
"Pass the ball!"
At this time, Frank, Zhang Lili, Yu Jia and others started shouting.
"boom!"
Li Ba dribbled the ball with his left hand, suddenly turned sideways, and backed Duncan from the baseline, but he didn't pass the ball.
"Boom!"
Duncan was caught off guard. He didn't expect Li Ba to hit him like this in this position. He was knocked back more than half a step, and his center of gravity still remained.
This time, without the most powerful opponent, Li Ba grabbed the ball with his left hand and rushed into the paint with one step sideways. Then, with another step, he jumped up facing Lasu who had just rushed to the reasonable collision zone.
"Boom!"
Rasu was knocked back in the air and fell to the ground, and the Spurs' paint area was instantly turned upside down.
"boom!"
Heavy buckle with one arm, trembling trembling.
13:8, the Suns led by 5 points.
"flute!"
The whistle sounded.
"Aww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
More than 3,000 Suns fans, on the Suns bench, on the CCTV live broadcast, a large number of Chinese media cheered at the same time.
"Aww!!!!!!"
Li Ba also felt extremely excited that the ball could be scored, and roared ferociously at Marbury and others who ran over.
"Aww!!!!!!!"
Marbury and the others were equally excited, yelling at Li Ba face to face.
"This momentum, this morale, the Spurs have to be eaten alive even if they are a piece of iron. It is not only unreasonable for the Suns not to win today, it is simply unreasonable!"
Zhang Lili shouted excitedly.
"Dunk! An absolutely powerful dunk! The Hammer used such a dunk to tell the Spurs, tell Duncan, and tell Popovich that you haven't put enough defensive pressure on me. Come on, double-team me, come on! "
At the scene, the Sun team commentator roared extremely excitedly.
Before the free throw, Popovich called for a timeout.
He feels that this is not enough. The Spurs have more defensive energy towards Li Ba, but they still can't stop him from attacking in the low post. Now the other players of the Suns are not feeling up.
"Hammer, hammer..."
He looked at Li Ba, who was going off the court, and felt that he had really underestimated the low-post scoring ability of this Chinese player. Tim defended with all his strength, but he couldn't stand it.
"Listen, from now on, the offensive end is going to attack the Suns inside. I want to see him foul. I want to see him being timid on the defensive end. I want to see him sitting on the bench in a daze. Know what I said Who is it?"
After the players came over, Popovich growled in a low voice.
All the Spurs players, including Duncan, looked at Li Ba who was wiping sweat on the Suns bench.
"Defensively, Bruce, do what you have to do! That's what you do," Popovich said grimly.
Seeing the head coach's cold eyes, Li Ba's ferocious face flashed in Bowen's mind instantly, he couldn't help but twitched, his eyes twitched, he glanced at Duncan, and lowered his head.
"Greg..." Duncan spoke at this time. He looked at Popovich and said sincerely: "Let us solve the things on the court by ourselves."
Popovich's unusually stern eyes were fixed on Duncan's face, but the latter only insisted, and the scene was a little stiff.
Parker, Ginobili and other people didn't dare to speak, they all lowered their heads, some wiped their sweat, some drank water.
"Tim, that kid is hard to deal with, I leave it to you, you defend him alone, and trade with him!" Popovich took a final step back and said.
He had to retreat. Duncan insisted on not using Bowen's methods, and once he used them, once that rookie went crazy, there would be unforeseen consequences. He could only retreat, but could no longer persist.
"I will do it." Duncan nodded solemnly.
"call!"
Here, Bowen breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't believe Li Ba's words. That guy was a lunatic. After killing Tim, he would definitely look for him again.
"Inside Tim defends that guy alone, and the others mark Marbury and Marion to death. Also, you must return to defense quickly and be careful of their fast break. Rasu, your task today is to guard Marion. Don't let him get close to the basket, you are a center, you have weight and height advantages, you should do it. In addition, you must help Tim control the rebound..."
Popovich continued to explain.
On the Suns side, Frank took a look at the players and they were very excited, but this was also troublesome. I was too excited and my hands were shaking. What if I couldn’t make a shot? If they can't make shots from the outside, the Spurs will definitely invest more defensive forces to encircle the Hammers and let the inside collapse?
"Listen, calm down, relax, the Spurs are strong, they haven't exerted their strength yet, once they exert strength, we may not win..."
He did not arrange tactics, and began to give psychological counseling to the players to make them not so excited.
Li Ba was a little helpless, he managed to boost his morale, and he had to praise his opponent for suppressing him, what's the matter?
The timeout ended, the game came back, Li Ba made a free throw, and there were 7 minutes and 30 seconds left in the first quarter.
"boom!"
The basketball hits the hoop and goes in.
He made 2 of 3 free throws and 4 of 4 shots. Li Ba scored 10 points in the half quarter.
14:8, the Suns led by 6 points.
The Spurs attack, on the three-point line on the right wing, after Hedo's pick-and-roll, Parker breaks through Marbury again.
The left wing is low, and Li Ba feels that Duncan's defense against him has reached a new level.
"Is this the level of defense in the playoffs?"
Li Ba suddenly took a step outside. When Duncan followed up, he suddenly ran back and entered the paint.
Parker broke through Marion and Posey in a row, broke through two layers of defense, entered the paint area, dribbled the ball and rushed to the basket.
Parker suddenly to the basket, suddenly a small change of direction, away to the left wing.
Li Ba immediately adjusted his position and moved to the left flank to prevent Parker's spinning top from turning around and looking back at the moon.
As he moves...
"Squeak..."
An emergency stop, amidst the screeching sound of sneakers rubbing against each other, Parker suddenly turned around, took the initiative to hold the ball and rushed towards Li Ba who was still moving.
"Boom!"
Parker bumped into Li Ba.
Seeing Parker suddenly turn around and bump into him, Li Ba knew that something was wrong and he was fouled, but he reacted very quickly. With a movement of his right hand, he patted the ball that Parker hadn't made yet, and even hit Parker directly with his palm. The latter groaned in pain and fell heavily to the floor.
"flute!"
When the whistle sounded, Li Ba made a defensive foul, and the Spurs re-attacked without counting.
With Duncan's help, Parker crawled up with a grunt. There was a clear red mark on his forehead, and Li Ba slapped him to tears.
"This is a malicious foul, he should be sent off directly, don't you see?"
Seeing just an ordinary foul, Popovich was furious and yelled at the court.
"If this is a flagrant foul, then the Spurs players should play in the WNBA, not the NBA." Frank walked aside and said loudly.
"Go away!" Popovich yelled at Frank.
Frank was not afraid of this old man. When he was playing, Popovich hadn't been a coach yet, so it didn't matter. He just sprayed: "It's you who walked away, you interfered with the referee's work! You should eat a T!"
"Parker played a foul-making tactic, but this time, the Hammer was very decisive in his defense. He wanted to call me a foul. I let you have no chance of two plus one. I also told you to lie down and see if you get hurt. You are lucky." Zhang Lili said cheerfully.
"This is the defensive strength of the current NBA playoffs." Yu Jia laughed.
"It's not as good as before. In the 1980s and 1990s, what was this level of strength? If it was Lambir, and Parker bumped into him, he would definitely hit him with an elbow." Zhang Lili laughed.
The Spurs attack with 10 seconds left.
