Chapter 173, To Biao Yingdi, the ignorant Duncan!(1/2)
"Tim, don't keep diving to the outside. You have an advantage in the inside and can attack."
"Tony, Manu, you can give Tim more to make the balls and let him cause damage, and don't keep rushing in."
"The pace of returning to defense is faster, and they are not so easy to collapse."
Popovich kept reminding all Spurs.
On the Lakers, Zen Master also emphasized the improvement of defensive intensity. Compared to the previous two rounds of the series, the defense was a bit bad tonight.
"Zhou Hang is very handsome and can still perform steadily in this Western Conference Final."
"This year is Zhou Hang's first year, and no one knows what his future will be like?"
"Among the rookies in recent years, Zhou Hang is the most surprising."
The commentator and the fans were chatting.
The second quarter started quickly.
The Lakers' rotation lineup is Fisher, Zhou Hang, Ariza, ski man, Odom.
The Spurs' rotation lineup is Ginobili, Bowen, Finley, Horry, and Ottobo.
The firepower of the second teams of the two teams is not worse than that of the first team.
Zhou Hang mainly used his deterrent power to create opportunities for his teammates, while Ginobili and Horry's pick-and-roll were exerted.
In general, the Lakers have a certain advantage.
With Zhou Hang's step back jump shot from outside the three-point line on the right side, the score of the two teams reached 38-38, and the Lakers successfully used the second team to tie the score.
Popovich's adjustment was quick, and he immediately changed to Parker and Duncan, and the Zen master still had no changes.
After Duncan and Parker came up, the Spurs' defensive intensity was obviously improved, and the ball Zhou Hang gave to his teammates could no longer be easily shot into the basket.
On the Spurs, Duncan continues to play his advantages in the interior and continuously uses his basic skills to score at the basket.
Duncan's offense is not gorgeous than many inside players, but it is very solid. Whether it is a small hook or a board at the basket, he can crack the defenses of the ski man and Odom.
With 7 minutes and 11 seconds left in the first half, the score reached 46-43, and the Lakers were behind again.
The Zen master used the gap between the dead ball and replaced Gasol and Kobe, and Fisher and Odom went down to rest.
Re-serve.
Zhou Hang is still the Lakers' point guard.
Zhou Hang rushed to the left side of the frontcourt with a rhythm and handed it to Kobe.
Ginobili was having a physical confrontation with Zhou Hang, and the confrontation between the two was very intense.
Kobe was also fighting against Bowen, and Parker went to attack Kobe.
Kobe quickly gave the ball to Gasol.
Gasol was defended by Duncan, so he transferred the ball to Zhou Hang.
Zhou Hang raised his hand and signaled to pull the space open.
If Kobe is hit by a pincer attack, he will not encounter pincer attack. This is the iron rule.
As long as it is a single, Zhou Hang has confidence.
Seeing Zhou Hang wanting to play singles for himself, Ginobili said: "Zhou, I won't let you score in front of me easily."
Zhou Hang did not respond, but started dribbling under his crotch outside the three-point line.
Ginobili's defense was close to Zhou Hang and his movements were very strong. He wanted to cut off Zhou Hang's dribble.
Looking at Ginobili reaching out to catch the ball, Zhou Hang collected the ball and took a big turn.
Ginobili wanted to break free, but couldn't.
"Beebeep!!!"
The referee signaled without hesitation that the ball was a three-point foul.
The Staples Arena was cheering.
Seeing the referee's penalty, Popovich's blood pressure soared!!
Popovich was furious: "This is a collision, an offensive foul!"
Ginobili also raised his hands to signal that he was innocent.
The Spurs players all looked up at the big screen.
Ginobili went to cut Zhou Hang's ball, but Zhou Hang caught the opportunity and was trapped.
Zhou Hang is trying to make a foul instead of shooting three points
According to the rules, these three free throws are fine.
But the process seems to be very unethical!
Ginobili didn't go for a foul, but Zhou Hang forced him to turn it into a foul.
The referee ignored the doubts of the Spurs and signaled Zhou Hang to go for a free throw.
Barkley smiled and said, "Kenny, I'm not right? Zhou Jiangmanu was playing with it?"
Smith smiled and said, "Of course, you read that right, this guy caused a big loss to the Argentinians."
Lakers fans are naturally happy about this scene, and they hope that Zhou Hang can take advantage.
"Awesome, rookie, teach him a lesson."
"The Demon Sword is an expert in striking the car, but today I fell."
"I'm so laughing, so awesome, Zhou Hang."
Fans were shocked by the fact that Zhou Hang could cause Ginobili to suffer losses.
After defending the referee, Ginobili came over to Zhou Hang and said, "Rookie, since you want to play, I will play with you."
Zhou Hang did not reply to Ginobili, but said to the referee: "He threatened me."
Zhou Hang showed a look like a veteran bullying rookie, and the referee quickly came over to warn Ginobili: "Don't ask for trouble."
At the Lakers' home court, the referee knew very well what to do.
"I don't!" Ginobili left in a frustration!!
Zhou Hang stood on the free throw line and made all three free throws comfortably!
46 to 46
Spurs attack.
Ginobili took the ball to the frontcourt.
Zhou Hang is guarding Ginobili.
Ginobili did not want a pick-and-roll, but instead broke into Zhou Hang's right side after a change of direction.
Zhou Hang immediately moved horizontally to stop him.
"Bang!"
Ginobili had a physical confrontation with Zhou Hang.
This kind of physical confrontation is common in the playoffs, but Ginobili bounces back in an extremely exaggerated posture of falling backwards to the sky!!!
"Ah!!!" Ginobili screamed with a scream.
Smell sadness and cry when you see it!
"Beep!!"
The referee also called Zhou Hang for a blocking foul. Ginobili shot when he lost balance. The ball was considered a shooting foul. Ginobili needed to stand on the free throw line and make two free throws.
Zhou Hang spread his hands and said he was speechless. He did not use secret force to defend this time, but Ginobili played it himself.
Zhou Hang knew that this was Ginobili's revenge, so he did not argue anymore.
Ginobili will fight whatever he wants!
Ginobili smiled and stood on the free throw line under the pull of his teammates!!
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
Ginobili also made both free throws.
48 to 46.
Lakers attack.
Zhou Hang dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.
Zhou Hang signaled to pull the space away, and he was ready to continue to fight Ginobili alone.
The players of both teams knew that the two were competing and they all scattered.
