Chapter five hundred and eighteen snatch the match point

However, in the third quarter, Ji Guomo was hit by the Spurs!

The little fox shook away Jamison, dribbled into the inside and changed direction again. This time he wiped Duncan again, and two more hit the basket, and a big trolley pushed the ball forward.

This is a performance that will definitely enter the five best goals every day. After Ji Guomeng scored the ball, he made a gesture to silence the Spurs fans, which caused all the Spurs fans to curse!

Ji Guohuo is not to provoke fans, he is to be on the headlines of the news.

Once this shot was taken, he might be on the headlines of major media tomorrow.

You know, there are so many endorsements on him, and many of them have additional terms. You can get money by making headlines, so of course you have to grab it!

Ji Guomeng's goal turned the score difference into 29 points. The Clippers' leading score difference of nearly 30+ hit the Spurs players too much. **Vic's midfield motivation was useless. The Spurs fell into a five-minute scoring drought. Even though the Clippers only scored two goals afterwards, they did not score for five minutes, which still allowed the Clippers to widen the leading score difference to 34 points.

The Spurs called a timeout again, and **Vic couldn't bear it anymore, and cursed at the player: "Shit, you're playing shit! Think about the Thunder, think about the 60 points of Xue Linlin, do you know what to do now?"

Thunder fans said: "Can you not get anything to do with us? Adelman did this last round, **Vic is still playing like this, you've been talking endlessly, right?"

Charles Barkley commented on the Spurs' performance: "The last round of hard battle with the Lakers consumed too much energy. Although they continued to attack gear-likely as usual, there were always problems in key links today. Tactical execution was dragging on. On the other hand, the Clippers. They have very reasonable defenses for Duncan and Parker. They are not just like the Lakers' double-team tactics. Their appropriate double-team and reasonable defense have made the Spurs rarely have free space to play their phones, and their tough single-defense ability also limits the Spurs' offensive success rate."

Kenny Smith agreed with this view: "The main reason is that their single defense and co-defense capabilities are stronger than those of the Lakers, and Chandler's defense is no worse than the two brothers, but Gasol's defense ability is not as fast as the two brothers. He is not that fast. It's just this little difference. The result is completely different."

Barkley shook his head: "Many Clippers fans have sent us text messages. They think the Clippers will still wear yellow robe this year. But I think it may be too early to use yellow robe to describe the Clippers at this time. Even if they defeat the Spurs, they will have to finish the finals before they can declare their successful defending title. However, I agree that today's Spurs is more like Staples at home. Although the Spurs are so sophisticated, the Clippers are more passionate. If the Clippers get this away game, it will be difficult for the Spurs to eliminate the Clippers. Next, they cannot defeat today at least."

At the end of the third quarter, when Jamison threw an open shot to the top of the rebound, **Vic was disappointed. All the Spurs fans were lost, and they knew that today's game was really explained.

The score was 76:45, and the Clippers continued to lead by 31 points. If the score difference was brought to the last quarter by the Clippers, the game would be completely over, with no suspense.

Ji Guomeng was happy today. After a defense, he faced Jamison's breakthrough and had a sudden inspiration and flew out as soon as he contacted him.

The referee whistled decisively, and the Spurs made an offensive foul.

The Spurs players are too lazy to even protest. The 30-point backward made them mentally give up this game, and they are really tired physically.

With four minutes left in the third quarter, Old Dunleavy replaced the two brothers in advance. If the score difference remained at 30 points in this game, he would not intend to replace the two.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 84:52, and the Clippers still led by 32 points.

Spurs fans began to leave the game at this moment, and **Vic did not replace the team's main player in the fourth quarter. This game has entered garbage time, and the Clippers easily won a big away game.

The final score was 109:74, and the Clippers beat the Spurs by 35 points, breaking the record of the two teams' confrontation in the past decade.

Of course, the Spurs must have won so many points than the Clippers, but it was the first time in the past decade that the Clippers had won so many points.

At the post-match press conference, Dunleavy was radiant and said to the media: "We won a away game, which is very important, but we all know that before winning four games in the playoffs, anything can happen, and we won't be complacent."

The Clippers' advantage today is overwhelming. They have never fallen behind in the entire game. This is the third time in their past 11 playoffs. Once they play as shocking offensive firepower as today, the Clippers will not give their opponents any chance, even if they are facing the old and almost demonic Spurs.

Dunleavy, the old man said lightly: "I think the Spurs are not feeling well tonight, they are a little tired, and this happens from time to time. The playoffs are tight, and they have to play a game almost every other day. This may be the reason for their poor form, but in the fourth game they will definitely become a completely different team, and we can't immerse ourselves in the victory of a game."

Spurs coach Greg **Vic also said: "We have run out of fuel, but the loss is mainly because the Clippers play well. We must have more players to play at a better level in order to win the game."

In the third game of the Western Conference Finals, the Clippers defeated the home team Spurs cleanly on the away game and won a hearty victory.

Ji Guoqiu scored 24 points, 18 rebounds, 9 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals, Ji Guomiang scored 32 points, 12 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals, Billups scored 17 points and 8 assists, Crawford scored 10 points, and Dracie scored 10 points.

Duncan scored 19 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, Parker scored 10 points and 5 assists, Jamison scored 20 points and 10 rebounds, Ginobili scored 5 points, and Roger Mason scored 8 points.

From the scoring data of the main players of the two teams, it can be seen that the three core members of the Clippers performed well in this game, especially the two brothers joined forces and contributed 56 points in three quarters. Such an inside combination is simply a "destiny" combination.

Espn commentator Jeff Van Gundy commented after the game, saying that he believed that the Clippers won a big victory in one game that could not determine the direction of the entire series. However, judging from the 14 playoff games that the Spurs have completed, only Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, Michael Jamison, Michael Finley, and Roger Mason scored 5+ points, and the team did not have enough players to score, and the unfavorable bench score seriously restricted them.

Moreover, compared with last year's championship, Duncan's efficiency on the court has dropped significantly this year, but Ginobili has failed to make up for the gaps as before, which is why the Spurs are struggling in the West Finals.

In 2007, Duncan shot up to 52.1% from the field, making up for Ginobili's 40.1%.

In 2005, Duncan only had 46.4% accuracy, thanks to Ginobili's 50.7% of the championship.

However, this year, the two men were only 47.6% and 42.3% respectively, which made the Spurs unable to score while also being unable to curb their opponents’ scoring.

Although Antoine Jamison can fill Ginobili's vacancy, he may be able to pass the Spurs against other teams. However, facing the Lakers and the Clippers' luxury lineup, the Spurs F4 is really indispensable!

In the two years of winning the championship in 2005 and 2007, they averaged 96.3 points per game, while only allowed their opponents to score 92.2 points.

This year, the Spurs have declined in offense and can only score 96.1 points. What's more fatal is the defensive end. They have allowed their opponents to score 95.4 points. The possible result of the gap of 0.7 points is that the Spurs will be unable to turn the situation around if they are not careful.

The Mavericks, Lakers and Clippers, all three teams are strong offensive opponents, and the Spurs' struggle performance in the playoffs this year is indeed very uneasy.

Compared with the two opponents that have been defeated, the Clippers are a team that can average 110 points per game in the playoffs. The top 6 scorers in the team have shooting percentages of more than 43%, and there are 5 players who average 10+ points per game.

The simplest description is that once the Spurs score less than the Clippers, they will be dead.

OK, it sounds more like nonsense, but the Spurs just struggle to solve such a simple problem.

In the last round, the Spurs had the ability to barely eliminate the Lakers in the tiebreak, because Ginobili was still healthy at the time, but now Ginobili has only 50% of his skills. The Spurs faced the more balanced Clippers. If they can no longer perform on the defensive end, the Animal Brothers have a chance to win another Finals MVP trophy.

On May 25, at 2 pm, the entire Clippers stayed in the San Antonio training hall to conduct training, and was open to the public for half an hour to be interviewed by the media.

Ji Guomeng stood outside the three-point line and accurately penetrated a basketball into the basket. Then he made a move that he thought was very handsome, and said to the media with a smile: "The fourth game will not be easy, and the Spurs will not be defeated by us so easily, even if we win 30 points. We will wait for them to come back with sufficient energy. They will play with us in the end, but we are waiting!"

Every player of the Clippers knows that the series has not ended yet and the Clippers cannot be slackened at all. Their training today was very serious. Except for the hippie and smiling brother, each player has a serious expression, as if a fierce battle has never begun.

The opponent won 30 in the previous game, but there was no pride after the game. The media interviewed felt that the calm Clippers now look more terrifying than the title of "Defensive Champion".

Just as the simple shooting training was over, Old Dunleavy called the players together. He shouted to everyone with a serious face: "We came here to grab the victory we lost at their home court. We were lucky enough to complete the goal in the last game. Now the mission has changed. We want to grab their home court and let us enter the finals at Staples!"
