The Clippers' lineup has slowed down again. Billups' reading of the situation on the field is far beyond Dragic's. The key man can discover and use details that many players cannot detect, which will invisibly change the outcome and trend of the game.

George Hill is not an opponent in the face of the experienced Billups. The key man uses the rhythm to break through without much speed. He can easily shake off the shooting and passing space. The Spurs' first-year rookie quickly becomes in a mess.

The same is true for Ji Guoqiu's first season against Duncan. In the first few games against Shi Buddha, Ji Guoqiu could only get about 10 points, but Duncan could easily get 20+.

Now Billups is easier to deal with George Hill. In the second quarter, the key player has a strong offense. He is now the player with the most obvious advantage in positioning of the Clippers. At this time, strengthening individual offense is the best choice, so Billups firmly held the ball and attacked.

In the second quarter, Billups scored two goals in a row and scored four points.

George Hill was very nervous. He knew that if the opponent scored again in this attack, **Vic should replace him.

When the Spurs shot, Ji Guochou got the rebound and handed it to Billups.

Billups calmly transported the basketball to the frontcourt, facing George Hill, first changed direction, and then immediately beat him...

It was such a simple dribbling move that could not be simpler. George Hill hurriedly took a big step, which showed how nervous he was.

**Vicci shook his head. It would be impossible for him to not substitute in this situation. George Hill is still too young. If he can display his defensive ability and stay calm, it will not be easy for Billups to break through him.

After Billups dribbled, he quickly changed direction and then another.

George Hill followed with all his strength, but he didn't expect his opponent to be fooled again. Now he stopped anxiously but exceeded his knees' tolerance. His legs became weak, and his whole body lost balance and fell on the floor.

Billups adjusted on the spot and easily shot the basketball. The result was naturally easy to hit.

**Vic called a timeout and replaced George Hill.

If you let him continue to fight, there will be no other result except for allowing Billups to continue to destroy his self-confidence.

"Maybe he can be a good starter, but it's hard to be a star."

**Vicci has secretly evaluated George Hill. None of this kid's athletic ability, basketball IQ, psychological quality and basketball skills can be considered excellent, but they are all above the average level. In **Vicci's opinion, he is very similar to Conley of the Grizzlies, and may become a good starter. The puzzle for becoming a champion team, but it is basically impossible to reach Parker's level.

Parker had just had three minutes off and returned to the court again.

When Billups saw his real opponent, he had no intention of resuming his attack and continued to attack Parker.

His plan is very simple. Now the Spurs are only Parker, who can attack from the outside. Once Parker is ineffective in the second half and cannot play the threat of breakthrough, the Clippers' defensive tasks will be much easier.

So, using your own offense to consume your opponent, this is Billups’ plan.

Billups may not make the last strike by himself, but every time he attacks, he will try to break through Parker first, consume the opponent's physical strength, and reduce the threat from the French offensive end.

This tactic works very well, and Parker has to focus more on defense, otherwise Billups' breakthrough will completely pierce the Spurs' defense line.

Ji Guochou frequently cooperated with Billups. After the key man used his breakthrough to attract defense, his first choice was to pass the basketball to Ji Guochou.

After the Spurs were scored two goals in a row by Ji Guochou, they could only focus on these two people, so Crawford's opportunity came.

Will the Clippers' nerve knife attack today?

Clippers fans think that Crawford only played one game in this round of the series, so why should he get another one today?

Crawford's performance in the playoffs was on a continuous downward trend. He performed very well in the regular season. Just like the Cavaliers' shooter group, he often hit the outside line continuously, adding fuel to the opponent's team's fire, and looked awesome.

However, in the playoffs, as the defensive intensity continued to rise, most of the sharpshooters who shot well in the regular season encountered Waterloo.

A bunch of top shooters with a regular season three-point shooting percentage of more than 40% have collectively dropped by about 10%. Although it cannot be said that all of them are, eight out of ten are like this.

On the contrary, Kobe's cancer, which has been criticized for being criticized for making iron, not only did he not reduce his hit rate, but he was more accurate.

Superstars including James and Wade, their regular season shooting percentages are mostly between 45% and 48%, but they can still maintain this value in the playoffs.

This is why these superstars can earn more than 20 million. There is a fundamental difference between players who can play tough battles and regular season brushes. Even if your regular season three-point shooting percentage reaches 50% and your playoffs drops to more than 30%, it will be useless.

Crawford is such a trick. The regular season looks awesome. Many Kohe said: "There seems to be no difference between Crawford and Kobe." As a result, they were slapped in the face in the playoffs.

However, today, Crawford finally made a big move. Even if he had accumulated so long, Ji Guoqiu and Billups had already attracted defense. If Crawford still didn't play, then Dunleavy would really consider whether to exchange Crawford for Artest next season. After all, the beast's performance in the playoffs is also very powerful, and he is a player who can fight hard battles.

Ji Guoqiu encountered Duncan and Finley's double-team on the offensive end, and Crawford immediately moved to the weak side.

Brother Panda did not watch people pass the ball, but magically passed the basketball to Crawford's hand on the move, which made people who understand the ball very surprised.

Generally speaking, if you don’t watch people pass the basketball to a certain point pitcher, it’s nothing, it’s the result of drills in training.

But if you don't look at people, it's much more difficult to pass the basketball to a moving player, and it's very easy to miss the pass.

However, for Ji Guoqiu, this seems not to be the case. Such passes are often seen in Panda Brother, and this does not seem to be difficult for him.

Charles Barkley said: "I think his sixth sense must be better than ordinary people. In terms of basketball court, this is the outstanding vision and the sense of space on the court. Those outstanding No. 1 players are the same, but it is extremely rare among inside players. Brother Panda has a better vision and space than point guards."

Kenny Smith said: "Yes, players with outstanding vision often have extremely high basketball IQ. They are very good at observing the situation on the court, have prediction abilities that ordinary people do not have, and can predict teammates' next action route in advance."

In fact, these two people are talking nonsense. People often make up for phenomena that they cannot understand into things they can understand. These two guys are doing this, and they even believe in what they say.

Crawford made a three-pointer and the score became 41:32, and the Clippers widened the gap to 9 points.

9 points is a dangerous red line. The Spurs are now going to do a multiple-choice question that is difficult to choose - double-team or not?

**Vicci waved his hand and stopped double-teaming Ji Guoqiu and Billups!

Once this guy Crawford feels good, he can often score several goals in a row, which is a huge threat.

To deal with such a nerve knife, you must let his feel and control the number of shots when he is in good condition. After a while, he will lose his state.

The Spurs did not double-team Ji Guoqiu and Billups, and these two continued to attack the Spurs' defense and consumed Parker's physical fitness.

At 8 minutes and 50 seconds in the second quarter, Bonner, who was scolded by Spurs fans for a summer last year, performed well this year and scored a three-pointer from the outside to help the Spurs stabilize the situation.

Then the Clippers Ji Guoqiu and Amir Johnson doubled Duncan, and Bonner got a chance to play at the high position and hit again.

Old Dunleavy hurriedly ordered Ji Guomo to prepare to play. Amir Johnson couldn't figure out the timing of double-teaming, so Bonner could even score five points in a row. What's so great?

On the defensive end, although the Spurs do not double-team the Clippers three players with excellent scoring abilities, it does not mean that they are completely using one-on-one defense.

Slowly... The Spurs began to try to let down Deng Tai Jones and Amir Johnson again, and used heavy troops to defend the other three.

Deng Tai Jones and Amir Johnson lost the basketball one by one. This is the reason why the Spurs dared to let them go. The score was chased to 41:37 in a blink of an eye. Old Dunleavy quickly called a timeout.

When the Clippers' substitute lineup was seen, it seemed that it was not very powerful. Old Dunleavy replaced the main lineup again, and the five players on the field became: Billups, Crawford, Barnes, Ji Guohuo, and Ji Guoqiong.

The Spurs will now face the most difficult period. In the next five minutes, the Clippers will send four of their strongest scoring ability on the court, and they will never double-team anyone. Once the Spurs' defense is slightly worse and the Clippers seize the opportunity to play an attack wave, it will be difficult to win the game again.

The Spurs replaced the best lineup with the current defense: Parker, Finley, Yuduka, Jamison, and Duncan.

**Vic originally had high hopes for Amy Yuduka, hoping that this excellent striker, swingman, could become Bowen's successor. But in the end, he found that this guy could be the team's locker room leader, but he could not make up for Bowen's lack on the court.

However, although he cannot become a top defensive master like Bowen, Yuduka can still be regarded as an excellent defensive player, but this is far from enough for limiting the Clippers.

The Spurs must miss the retired Bowen at this moment, but in fact, even if Uncle Bao San does not retire, he may not be able to become the nightmare of No. 2 and 3 players as before. He did not have Artest last year, and this year he will only be even more embarrassed.

The Clippers' terrifying offensive firepower during this period failed to defeat the Spurs' defense line in just a few rounds.

However, the Clippers' own defense was also broken by their opponents, which made Old Dunleavy very embarrassed.
