Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

Chapter 223 Three Point Showdown

The second quarter of the game is still a battlefield for substitutes.

George Hill, Dengta Jones, Qi Tian, ​​Hansbrough and Adamson played together, while the Spurs played Gary Neal, Ginobili, Stephen Jackson, Matt Bonner and Splitter.

"The substitute three gunmen are here!"

The fans who came to the away game to support the Pacers were excited. With George Hill, Qi Tian and Hansbrough averaging nearly 10 points per game, the Pacers' bench firepower ranked among the top in the league.

If we remove the shortcomings of the team's weird offensive rotation and lack of offensive system support, fans believe that the Pacers' substitutes will definitely reach a higher level.

"But the Spurs aren't bad either."

Personality aside, Gregg Popovich is the best coach in the NBA at using substitute players. Even if the team's substitutes are used against the main players of other teams, the Spurs can rely on smooth cooperation to defeat their opponents.

How many rounds.

Qi Tian quickly realized the art of coaching.

He broke through quickly, threw away the old captain Jackson, and rushed towards the basket.

After receiving a pass from Hill, Qi Tian was about to take a layup, but found Bonner coming in front of him.

"Chance!"

Qi Tian immediately hit the ground and found Hansbrough under the basket, but Split had already made up the position in front of his opponent, leaving no space at all.

"The rotation is so fast!"

Hansbrough was forced to make a hasty move by his opponent and could only strike, Brian Shaw said with emotion off the court.

Fortunately, Amandasson grabbed the offensive rebound and passed it to Qi Tian. Without stopping the ball, Qi Tian passed it back to Amandasson, successfully interrupting the opponent's defensive rhythm and assisting Amandasson to score a layup.

"20-25."

But Ginobili quickly attacked with the ball, causing a foul on Qi Tian, ​​and made two free throws, helping the Spurs maintain their lead.

George Hill was about to organize an attack, but Ginobili suddenly made a move and completed the steal!

"pretty!"

The Spurs rushed towards the Pacers' half, taking advantage of the 3-on-2 advantage in the frontcourt, Gary Neal passed to Stephen Jackson and assisted his teammate to hit a three-pointer.

"Ouch!!!"

The Spurs fans on the sidelines cheered.

"20-30."

Not even two minutes had passed in the second quarter, and the Spurs had already extended their lead to double digits.

Fortunately, Hansbrough scored a jumper and returned the favor.

Popovich played another trick. When Split caused a foul on Adamson and went to the free throw line, he took the lead in substituting Ginobili and took him off to rest.

Although Green was replaced, all Spurs fans know that the Spurs' real substitute lineup has appeared.

Mainly because Green is a pure 3D player and he can't attack with the ball at all.

After Split made two free throws, Stephen Jackson made another jump shot.

"22-34."

"I'm afraid I can't catch up with two points."

Qi Tian muttered in his heart, started running from the bottom corner, quickly came to the left side, and received the pass from George Hill.

"bring it on."

Stephen Jackson stood in front of Qi Tian, ​​waiting for his opponent to attack with the ball.

But Qi Tian suddenly jumped up and threw the basketball in his hand from the highest point.

"What?"

Jackson slowed down a beat and could only watch the basketball fly out.

"Whoosh!"

Qi Tian scored the first goal of the game.

"25-34."

"nice shot!"

Everyone on the bench waved towels and cheered for Qi Tian along with the cheers of the fans on the sidelines.

"You don't think you're the only one with three points, do you?"

Ginobili came off the court, and the possession of the ball was handed over to Gary Neal. He used the pick-and-roll of his teammates to directly deflect George Hill from the outside.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

"25-37."

Gary Neal glanced at George Hill proudly and retreated on defense.

Although he is two years older than George Hill and has a height advantage, George Hill successfully entered the head coach's field of vision through his performance in the playoffs.

Just when Gary Neal thought that starter Parker Green and substitute George Hill and Ginobili would take up all the playing time of the back line, a surprise came from the sky - George Hill was traded, and Gary Neal had

It’s time to start!

"I still want to thank you."

Gary Neal looked provocatively at George Hill who was attacking with the ball, intending to give him some color on defense.

Of course George Hill knows what the people in front of him are thinking, but he is on the other team. Is there any use in worrying about it?

He called for a pick-and-roll, broke through and passed the ball directly to Qi Tian in the corner, who was about to take action after receiving the ball.

"What?"

Jackson didn't expect the young man in front of him to be so bold and jumped decisively to block the shot.

"Wrong guess!"

Qi Tian immediately retracted his fake move and took a step to the outside. Sure enough, Green was attracted to cover up the defense. He immediately passed the ball to Stephenson at the top of the key.

"cast!"

Stephenson still wanted to score the ball, but Qi Tian decisively shouted at him to take action.

Stephenson hesitated for a moment, then picked up the ball, jumped up, and threw the basketball in the air.

"Dangdang, swish!"

The basketball bounced twice, spun around and fell in.

"28-37."

"Oh cowhide!"

Two consecutive three-pointers helped the Pacers narrow the point difference again, and everyone on the bench decisively waved their towels again.

Split successfully squeezed away Amandasson and caught the ball inside. He feinted twice before turning and handing it over to Danny Green on the outside.

Danny Green had already taken advantage of Stephenson's stunned defense to run into the open space, get the ball and shoot a jump shot.

"Whoosh!"

Basketball hollow hit.

The Spurs gave their opponent another three-pointer!

Split continued his efforts and directly blocked Amandelson's jump shot, and then took off the second time to get the rebound, giving the Pacers no chance to continue to narrow the point difference.

"Give me!"

Gary Neal came inside to ask for the ball, and then wanted to turn around for a fast break.

"careful!"

The reminder from his teammates came. Before Gary Neal could react, his hand was empty and the basketball was cut!

It is Qitian.

But Gary Neal reacted quickly and made a decisive counterattack. Qi Tian lost his balance and threw the ball before he fell.

George Hill hurried over to get the basketball, so his efforts were not in vain.

"Defend!"

"Defend!"

Seeing that the opponent had a second chance to attack, the Spurs fans on the sidelines immediately shouted loudly to cheer for the team.

"Don't you know my strength?"

George Hill looked at Gary Neal who was concentrating on guarding in front of him, glanced at his feet secretly, and twitched the corner of his mouth,

"Then I'll let you review it."

He jumped up decisively and threw the basketball in his hand before Gary Neal pounced on him.

"What?"

This diffraction three-pointer was beyond Gary Neal's expectations. He jumped up to block the shot, but could only watch the basketball pass through his fingertips and fly towards the basket.

"Whoosh!"

Hit again!

"31-40."

The two teams are like gods, having hit five consecutive three-pointers!

Popovich was dissatisfied with the team's failure to follow established tactics and decisively replaced Parker, Duncan and Leonard.

Vogel simply replaced Amandelson with West to enhance his inside strength.
