Super Role Player

Tony Parker held the ball across the half court, and McConley immediately posted it. The success of the previous game made Lionel Hollins decide to stick to the defense of the previous game.

For the San Antonio people, the most critical moment has arrived. Has Gregg Popovich adjusted? Or does the adjustment have any effect?

Tony Parker wasted no time, took a lunge, and started cutting with the ball.

The Grizzlies' defensive expansion soon arrived. Marc Gasol moved to the free throw line, ready to cooperate with McConley to block Tony Parker's inside cut, and the Grizzlies, who are good at hand-to-hand combat, quickly gathered a large number of defensive players on the strong side, almost It is the five players of the Grizzlies who all appeared on the strong side.

Anxi took aim at the opportunity, and he withdrew without everyone noticing...

"Tony Parker's breakthrough, the Spurs still seem to want to stick to their pick-and-cut tactics, but Tony Parker is full of defenders in front of him, and the cut with the ball is about to fail."

Mike Thirick's tone was a bit pity. If the Spurs' offense is still like this, then he can only regret that the Spurs lost again.

"Uh, no! The other side is at a 45-degree angle, who is that?" Hubie Brown just wanted to say a few words, but he suddenly saw a shadow running out of the crowd, and then at a 45-degree angle on the other side , received a pass from Tony Parker without any defenders in front of him!

"Oh! That's China An! He ran out of an open space! Three points! Go in! Beautiful!" Mike Thirick also found out, and he shouted loudly. Unable to make up the defense, I watched Anxi make this unpressurized open three-pointer!

Three points! The Spurs scored first! Popovich on the sidelines shook his hands fiercely, then turned around and sat back in his seat, looking very chic, his adjustment was successful!

"First use the Grizzlies' shortcomings on the weak side to defeat the Grizzlies' defense, and then we can replay the pick-and-cut offense that we are good at."

Popovich sat on the bench, resting his chin and thinking about the next adjustment.

The game continued, and no one noticed the problem with the Spurs' attack just now. Hubie Brown just wondered why Anxi suddenly ran to the other side. This is not like the Spurs' running style.

And Mark Stein, who was far away in New York, was watching the game in his office. When Anxi made the three-pointer, he uttered a foul language. He thought it was just an ordinary goal by the Spurs, an ordinary three-pointer. Points, nothing to say.

The game continued, the Grizzlies' offense, McConley faced Kawhi Leonard again, the Grizzlies began to slow down, they poured the ball back and forth on the outside, until Zach Randolph took a good position inside, and McConley made a sling The ball, passed the ball in.

Zach Randolph sat on Boris Diaw, pushed in twice, then turned around and made a hook shot.

3:2, the Grizzlies scored two points.

The Spurs' offense struck again, still the old routine, Tony Parker cut in with the ball, and the Grizzlies were heavily guarded.

Anxi and Tim Duncan circled to the weak side together, Tony Parker's pass arrived again, and the basketball came to Anxi at the top of the arc, but Tony Allen quickly made up for it.

Anxi glanced at Tim Duncan and passed the ball again.

Tim Duncan at the free throw line on the other side catches and shoots without any interference, and the basketball goes into the basket.

This time, the Spurs' offense finally attracted the attention of others, because the Spurs' ball and running were different from the past for two consecutive offenses.

"Tim Duncan, this time it was his mid-range shot, and the goal was very crisp."

"Yes, in fact, we have discovered the change of the Spurs on the offensive end. I don't know if everyone has noticed. The Spurs' two offenses were scored on the weak side. I don't know if it is a coincidence." Hubie Brown glanced. Mike Thierry, posed his doubts, and then went on to explain: "The strong side and the weak side mean,

A basketball half is divided into two, the side with the ball is called the strong side, and the side without the ball is called the weak side, and the two consecutive balls are the Spurs players without the ball running to the weak side, Then catch and shoot, I think this is likely to be the change the Spurs made on the offensive end. "

Lionel Hollins also noticed the change in the Spurs, but he didn't take it seriously. He just shouted from the sidelines: "Pay attention to the defense! Pay attention to the defense! Don't miss the weak side!"

Lionel Hollins felt that there was a problem with their weak-side defense, so he emphasized it. As everyone knows, the weak-side defense is a loophole in the Grizzlies' defensive system.

The game continued. After Hollins emphasized, McConley and Tony Allen also paid attention to the defense of the weak side. When the Spurs attacked again, Tony Allen and McConley made up the weak side in time. free time.

Or in other words, the Spurs were a step slower. After all, it was said before the game that the gap on the weak side of the Grizzlies will only last for a short time, maybe only one second. The Spurs need to seize the gap within this second. Chance, throw the ball.

There was a wave of failure, but Popovich did not give up looking for a way to open up the weak side attack. He knew that as long as the Spurs seized this short opportunity, it would be enough to break through the Grizzlies' defense.

The game continued, the Grizzlies' offense, McConley's layup was slapped by Tim Duncan, Anxi grabbed the ball and handed it to Tony Parker, the Spurs' offense came again!

Tony Parker cuts inside, Anxi circles to the weakside corner, and the ball flies into his hands.

Tony Allen's supplementary defense was not enough, Anxi made another three-pointer!

"Anxi made a three-pointer from the weak side again! Go in! The adjustment effect of the Spurs' second game is remarkable!"

Anxi waved his fist, his second three-pointer of the game!

The Spurs insisted on focusing on the weak side of the Grizzlies. In the rest of the first quarter, Popovich also replaced another Spurs outside three-point shooter Danny Green, and even used the inside nuclear weapon Matt Bonner. This was pulled away.

At the end of the first quarter, the score of the two teams became 35:22, with the Spurs leading by 13 points. In the entire first quarter, Anxi took 6 three-pointers, hit 4 of them, and scored 12 points.

In other words, the Spurs' main weak-side tactical play has succeeded!

During the intermission of the quarter, Lionel Hollins was sweating profusely, and he had been anxiously adjusting his tactics on the sidelines.

Strengthen defense on the weak side? Or simply let the Spurs attack the weak side? Lionel Hollins' choice is obvious. He chose to strengthen the defense on the weak side, which means that the Spurs disintegrated the Grizzlies' defensive tactics of expanding inside and outside!

So the second quarter started, and the Spurs found that the Grizzlies had returned to last season's defensive tactics that focused on the inside and defending the penalty area. Popovich smiled knowingly, and everything was resolved.
