Chapter 132 is still backward
"We have to step up our offense in the second quarter. We can't sit back and wait, we have to break through their defense." Popovich kept encouraging the Spurs players during the breaks in the first and second quarters.
Falling behind by 11 points in the first quarter and not scoring more than 20 points, this is a situation the Spurs have never encountered this season. This set was too headwind.
In the second quarter, Radar led Murray, Carroll, Lyles, and Boltel to continue the campaign, and the Jazz replaced the backcourt combination of Clarkson and Mudiay.
In the second quarter, Radar strengthened his personal offense. The reason why Popovich allowed him to continue playing in the second quarter was because he wanted Radar to lead the team to catch up with the score.
Mudiay's speed is not as fast as Conley's, and Clarkson is no match for Radar in physical confrontation. Radar's comprehensive strength can still be brought into play.
Radar received a pass from Murray, feinted a shot past Mudiay's defense, and shot a three-pointer directly, turning the score into 21-29.
The two Jazz defenders cooperated and passed each other, and Clarkson finally scored a layup.
The radar once again hit the inside and was blocked, and Gobert was still staring at the basket, so he had no choice but to withdraw from the penalty area.
Zhou Zhou also said after watching it: "On the inside of the Jazz, there is only Gobert. His coverage area is very wide. This kind of inside is more terrifying than the Raptors."
"When Radar was playing against the Raptors, he could kill seven in and seven out. Just now Radar retreated. It wasn't that he couldn't make a layup, but that he had to conserve his energy. This was only the second quarter. Unlike the Raptors, who were equally strong in the paint,
This Spurs game is back-to-back, and they just finished beating the Mavericks yesterday."
Radar, who exited the penalty area, took a mid-range shot and caused a foul on Mudiay's defender, so there was no doubt about the additional penalty.
This time the Jazz's offense was handed over to the inside. Gobert took the ball and without any extra movement, he directly flew over Boltel and dunked with one hand.
Whether it is height, wingspan or technical strength, Gobert crushes Bortle. The Spurs center knew before the start of this game that he would definitely be in the background today, and more than once, if the radar hadn't attracted the defense, he would have been in the background for the second time.
Pass the ball and assist him in the first quarter, but I'm afraid he hasn't been able to score yet. Because he is the one facing Gobert most directly.
The Jazz also made changes on defense. Mudiay defended the radar and Clarkson assisted in defense, which was to prevent the radar's three-pointer. As long as the radar was outside the three-point line, Mudiay must be close to the body to defend.
In this case, one person still can't stop Radar. He shakes his body left and right, and as long as he can dribble, Radar can get rid of Mudiay. At this time, Clarkson will also appear, and Radar will directly attack the inside and reach Gore.
In front of Bell, he looked back at the moon and passed the ball to Murray.
Because Radar attracts a lot of defense, there will always be someone in the Spurs who is open. Murray passes the ball to Carroll, Carroll passes to Lyles, Lyles passes to Radar, and Radar passes to Murray. At this time, Murray
He didn't show humility, took a long two-point shot and hit it directly.
This is the Spurs' team basketball. Everyone can be selfless and take decisive action when there is room to take action.
Basketball Poet Live Room, Zhou Zhouyan said: "This continuous passing is really picturesque. They are very decisive in passing the ball. Although the Spurs are lagging behind now, in terms of rhythm, the Spurs still have the advantage. If Radar wants to shoot a three-pointer, they will
If they stick closely to the defense and don't give any space, they will always miss people if they break through the ball and the Jazz will follow the Spurs."
As Zhou Zhou said, in the next round, Radar still chose to break through and score the ball. This time in front of Gobert, Radar passed the ball to Boltel, helping the Spurs narrow the point difference to 5 points.
The Jazz still output steadily. Clarkson completed a layup and immediately responded.
This time the Jazz saw Radar passing halftime, leaving only Mudiay to defend, and the others began to shrink their defense. They could not let Radar break through to the inside so easily.
It was just that the radar breakthrough accelerated. He took one step, dribbled, and retracted his legs. Mudiay's steps were messy, and he almost stepped on his left foot and his right foot, and fell to the ground.
"O my god!" fans at the Energy Solutions Arena exclaimed. Radar's shot was very beautiful. The range of motion was also large, but there was no delay at all.
After knocking down Mudiay, there was no defensive player in front of Radar, and he hit the target with one three-pointer.
After hitting the three-pointer, the Jazz immediately called for a short timeout. Radar alone caused the Jazz's defense to be in chaos.
After the timeout, Radar also took a rest off the court. The score at this time was 31 to 35. Under the leadership of Radar, the Spurs recovered 7 points in four minutes.
But as soon as the radar came off the court, the storm started again. The Jazz's two substitute guards took turns to show off their power, expanding the score bit by bit. There was nothing the Spurs could do. Murray could not stand alone, and the others felt cold.
Either he didn't feel good, or he couldn't score under the Jazz's defense.
At halftime, the Spurs trailed by 10 points 42-52.
During the halftime break, Zhou Zhou said: "It's almost over, Radar's help is coming. As long as all the new players arrive, this Spurs will be unstoppable after a good run-in."
Of course, in Zhouzhou's live broadcast room, many people also asked about Wu Hao. He did not appear in the Guangfeng team's games for two consecutive games, leaving fans confused. It seemed that the news about Wu Hao had been blocked.
No media reported this.
There are just a lot of speculations from the outside world, most of which are just headlines and have no real content. They are mostly used to deceive clicks. Some people speculate that Wu Hao is forcing the Guangfeng team. Some people think that Wu Hao has fallen out with the Guangfeng team and the basketball association. Why is he suffering from suppression?
, being blocked and so on.
Zhou Zhou's response to this was just that he didn't know anything about it, and he also wanted to know Wu Hao's current situation very much, but Wu Hao seemed to have disappeared and no one could find him.
Looking at the barrage that filled the screen, Zhou Zhou deliberately changed the topic and said: "The Spurs' newly traded center, Karl-Anthony Towns, will bring qualitative changes to the Spurs' inside line. He can attack independently and cooperate with his teammates.
, and his outside ability, the only shortcoming is the pick-and-roll screen."
"There is also Danny Green. He was one of the contributors to the Spurs' 2014 championship. Now he can be considered home. His arrival can help Radar prevent a scoring point, so the pressure on Radar will be much less.
Even if they face teams like the Lakers, Clippers, and Rockets, they will play very easily."
Fans followed Zhou Zhou's topic and expressed their expectations for the new members of the Spurs. They also like this Spurs very much, and the Spurs' management. They are very discerning. They selected China's Radar and built the team with him as the core.
