Super Role Player

With three steals in a row, Anxi paid special attention to his technical statistics. It seems that his number of steals in this game has reached 5.

This number has already tied Ray Allen's record for steals in the playoffs. Anxi touched his chin. It seems that no matter what, he will get the remaining steal no matter what.

In the Grizzlies' offense, O.J. Mayo learned his lesson. He no longer controlled the ball in his own hands. Gilbert Arenas held the ball and looked for opportunities outside the three-point line.

Agent 0 is about to retire. If it wasn't for the Grizzlies' extreme lack of point guards, he might not even be able to hit the ball. The old and injured Gilbert Arenas also lost his original strength and dribbled for a long time , didn't find a chance at all.

Mayo, on the other hand, was in a frighteningly hot state in this game. He cut to the inside and then circled out. There was a glimmer of opportunity, and Gilbert Arenas' pass also arrived.

However, with the pass to Anxi's defense, O.J. Mayo faced Anxi's defense and made a mid-range shot.

Anxi's blocking was in place. Obviously, the goal was missed.

With a bang, the rebound was taken by Kawhi Leonard.

Tony Parker rushed directly to the frontcourt with the ball, made an emergency stop, and scored in a mid-range shot!

The Spurs' lead broke through 5 points, Lionel Hollins made a timeout gesture, and the Grizzlies applied for a timeout!

Lionel Hollins quickly adjusted. He chose to continue to believe in O.J. Mayo, but in order to play the effect of the first half, Lionel Hollins replaced Marc Gasol, turning the slow, offensive Hamad Haddadi, who was useless at the end, was replaced, hoping to share O.J. Mayo's offensive pressure through Marc Gasol's low-post singles and high-post support.

The Spurs also made substitutions. Anxi's defense was effective. Popovich hoped to expand his lead. The Spurs replaced Manu Ginobili and Kawhi Leonard to strengthen their offense.

Marc Gasol came on the court, and the Grizzlies' ball handler became this Spanish center who is good at organizing and supporting in the high position.

O.J. Mayo cut in without the ball, and Anxi followed behind calmly. Mayo passed the pick-and-roll cover of Maris Speights, took a step away from Anxi, and then received a pass from Marc Gasol.

However, DeJuan Blair made up for it, and Mayo chose to continue to dribble and pass DeJuan Blair.

Anxi rushed over at this moment, with a gust of wind brought up by his fast speed, and with the wind came Anxi's outstretched right hand.

Mayo didn't notice at all, Anxi's right hand directly slapped the basketball, and then followed Anxi's speed, rushing to the three-point line!

"Another steal!" shouted Mike Thierry!

Hubie Brown explained very calmly: "Anxi stole Mayo again, this is his 4th steal on Mayo, the Spurs launched a fast break, Anxi did not choose to do it himself, he was very selfless, he chose the pass The ball, followed by Manu Ginobili on the fast break, received the ball, look at his throw! Go in! The Spurs continue to expand their lead, and the difference is 8 points!"

In the next few waves of offense and defense, the Spurs still had the upper hand, and Anxi, who had already broken the steal record, also began to defend steadily. In fact, the steal just now was a bit of a gambling steal. , that is a misplacement.

Anxi, who is defending steadily, is Anxi with the strongest defense. Anxi in this state, even Mayo, who can defend, has no chance to get the ball.

Halfway through the third quarter, the Spurs gradually extended their lead to more than 10 points. The cheers in the AT\u0026amp;T Arena grew louder, and the Spurs The lead is expanding, which means that the time to advance to the Western Conference Finals is approaching.

Lionel Hollins still did not give up, he chose to put all his eggs in one basket at this time,

Replaced all the main players, and also replaced O.J. Mayo. For Mayo, there may be only one sentence to describe his performance in this game-from the surprise soldier to the pig teammate, there is only one Anxi in the middle!

After the Grizzlies replaced all the main players, the Spurs' offensive became more and more fierce, and the point gap expanded a little bit, 12 points, 14 points, 16 points...

On the last attack of the third quarter, Anxi got an open spot on the weak side and hit a three-pointer. The point difference came to 22 points. The commentators on the sidelines were already announcing the end of the game.

"The game is over. Although the fourth quarter has not yet been played, at this moment, the Grizzlies are far inferior to the Spurs in terms of competitive status and strength. We can announce in advance that the Spurs have become the first team to advance to the East and West finals. team!"

"Greg Popovich deserves to be the best coach in the regular season. In this series, Greg Popovich's adjustments helped the Spurs regain their unfavorable situation. They won four games in a row after losing the first game. From this point Look, Popovich is the real core player for the Spurs."

Mike Thirick and Hubie Brown touted the Spurs in advance, and there were no surprises in the rest of the game. Although the Grizzlies insisted on the main battle, the Spurs' substitutes withstood the impact of the Grizzlies' main force.

In the end, the game ended, and the Spurs won the fifth game between the two sides by 115:98 at home with a 17-point advantage. They defeated the Grizzlies 4:1 in the series and advanced to the Western Conference Finals.

In this game, Anxi got a lot of opportunities under the man-to-man tactics of the Grizzlies. He made 8 of 14 shots in the game, including 5 of 9 three-pointers. He scored 24 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 6 steals and 2 A block, once again elected the best player of the game.

In the whole series, Anxi's performance was also excellent. In the first game of the loss, he scored 9 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals. In the winning game, Anxi started to show his power. He scored 21 points and 2 steals. Rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks. Then in the third and fourth games, Anxi continued to perform well, scoring 18 points, 4 rebounds, 3 steals, 2 blocks and 17 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 Steal 2 blocks, five games in the series, Anxi averaged 17.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 3.0 steals and 2.2 blocks per game.

The offensive end played well, and the defensive end almost single-handedly prevented the Grizzlies from the perimeter. Therefore, when the major media selected the best of the five-game series between the Spurs and the Grizzlies, Anxi was placed first.

ESPN believes: "Anxi averaged 3 steals and 2.2 blocks per game. What is this concept? It can be said that Anxi has dominated the defensive end. In this series, if there is no Anxi's defense, the Grizzlies may also play a brilliant offense, and The Spurs played back and forth!"

The underlying meaning of ESPN is that their pre-match predictions were correct, but they didn't expect Anxi to suddenly show off at this point.

And Yahoo Sports placed the title of best defensive player in the second round on Anxi before the second round of the series was over.

The Spurs also became the first team in the league to advance to the Eastern and Western Conference Finals. In another game that started at the same time, the Heat also defeated the Pacers at home, but their total score was only 3:2, and they needed at least It takes one game to qualify.

After the game, Anxi was surrounded by several reporters in the locker room.

However, Anxi, who was so concerned with the system, didn't have the heart to pay attention to these reporters' questions at all. After dealing with a few questions in a hurry, Anxi refused the next interview, got dressed and went home.
