One Thousand Three Hundred and Forty-One. Passive Little Bully

The more important point is that there is no chance to use the rules to cause fouls. Hibbert is most famous for his vertical jump and rarely commits fouls. But in this regard, Duncan is better than Hibbert, but he is better in many places. This kind of basic skills is so ordinary in him. Only players who are not so good in other aspects will be remembered for his most outstanding characteristics.

Duncan's control over the details on the defensive end suppressed Sun Ce in a matter of seconds. When Sun Ce found that there was no passing route, no shooting opportunities, and no foul opportunities, he immediately turned around and leaned down facing the free throw line. Dash out!

Level 5 trigger of acceleration and direction change while traveling!

Duncan moved quickly. He knew that Sun Ce had a strong ability to change direction at short range and small range, but he felt that he was enough to deal with Sun Ce's change of direction speed in this situation, but... Sun Ce accelerated even faster than Duncan remembered. Hurry up!

Although it was only a little bit, this little bit just gave Sun Ce a chance to grab the ball from the free throw line and get up!

There was nothing Duncan could do. Gay, who came back, was a beat too late. Sun Ce took advantage of the 1-second speed bonus to rush to the free throw line and hit the hook... again!

After scoring the goal, Sun Ce retreated quickly. Guy had already gone back to the basket to pick up the ball. Duncan was beaten so hard that he couldn't see any change in his mood. He immediately stepped down quickly and maintained the offensive rhythm.

It was too difficult for Sun Ce to return from defense. He didn’t even have a good chance in the fast break. Parker and Danny Green blocked the space for Paul George to catch, shoot and cut. Duncan’s baseline areas on both sides + the defense under the basket were simply horrendous. If it doesn't work, Gay will block his mid-range shot...

Sun Ce scored two points with great difficulty and physical exertion. Looking back, the Spurs got an open three-point opportunity through easy interspersed movement by the Grizzlies...a top-notch defense. The Grizzlies' strongest defense and the Spurs' offense are average defenses.

Gay caught the ball in the corner and shot a three-pointer... and also scored!

5 to 4, the Spurs were completely unaffected by Sun Ce's 4 points in a row.

A few more rounds passed, and the Spurs decisively began to take the initiative. The Grizzlies' offensive firepower was very good. They played 6 minutes and 12 seconds in the first half of the first quarter and scored 15 points. If the game continued like this, the Grizzlies would score 30 points in a single quarter. The points were expected, but the Spurs scored 18 points and easily suppressed the Grizzlies, and the Spurs still had the ball!

Fortunately, Sun Ce triggered the "cut off" when the opponent was passing and cooperating, rushed forward and batted the ball out of bounds. Although he failed to steal the ball successfully, it also temporarily interrupted the opponent's cooperation, and the referee blew the official timeout whistle.

Returning to the bench, Sun Ce looked at the opponent's steady play. It looked ordinary, but it was strong!

Moreover, the opponent will not have any fluctuations just because their offense is playing well, or they have completed a block or steal. They will continue to play steadily... they will be stronger, calmer, and more composed than in the regular season!

Here, Sun Mou, after scoring 4 points in the mid-range and close range at the beginning, the opponent did not change his defensive strategy. Guy just defended the three-pointer and chased the mid-range shot. No matter how he scored in the paint, it was impossible. Change the defensive strategy and be highly targeted!

However, he also seized the opportunity. When he had the opportunity to catch the ball and play in singles, he used his physical strength to use the low position to speed up and change direction for singles while traveling in front of the frame. He scored another goal and once turned around and hit a hook shot from the baseline. However, in the first half of the game, No free throws during the quarter!

Moreover, Sun Ce discovered something. If Randolph hadn't scored 4 points and Nash had hit a counterattack three-pointer, if he continued to fall into a positional battle, the opponent seemed to want to cut off the connection between him and his teammates and let him He scores alone!

Want to cool down the other players on their side!

He scored 8 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block on 4 of 6 shots, but Sun Ce felt uncomfortable playing.

…

The Grizzlies continue to strengthen their offense, with Sun Ce, Nash, and Paul George continuing to play, and Klay Thompson and Yi Jianlian playing.

Seeing these two teammates coming up, Sun Ce knew that he didn't need to worry too much for the time being, just focus on attacking well.

After these two people come up, the power of fast attack will be greatly improved.

The Spurs also made substitutions. Split replaced Kwame Brown. The lineup of Parker, Danny Green, Gay, and Duncan remained unchanged.

The official timeout ended and the Spurs continued to attack, with only 11 seconds of attack time left.

Gay received the ball and played in singles, facing Paul George's single defense. Gay retreated from the three-point line and hit a three-pointer from a 45-degree angle to the left!

21 to 15, the Spurs widened the point difference to 6 points!

The teamwork is awesome, and the singles also include Parker, the former Finals MVP, and Gay, an outstanding singles player.

In addition to the age of the Spurs' strongest player, Sun Ce can't even find any flaws in the Spurs!

After the score difference reached 6 points, Sun Ce felt the pressure coming like a mountain.

However, after Klay Thompson delivered the ball, Sun Ce immediately advanced quickly and launched an attack.

The Spurs' defense still maintained the same strategy. This time the Grizzlies did not play run-and-gun. When Gay took the shot, the other four Spurs had already retreated. Gay also retreated immediately after the shot, which was completely useless. The idea of ​​taking advantage of the Grizzlies' declining rebounding ability.

This is what the Spurs learned from the Clippers in Game 1 of the series between the Clippers and the Grizzlies. Suppressing the Grizzlies' speed first will always have some effect.

After Sun Ce quickly advanced to the frontcourt, he found that the opponent's defense still wanted him to play one-on-one. Sun Ce gave the ball to Nash and went to screen Nash, trying to become the screen executor, trying to crack the opponent's defensive strategy. The opponent did a good job of guarding the shooter. In the first half of the quarter, they only had Nash with a good three-pointer opportunity. Obviously, they wanted to completely block their three-pointers, especially for him, Klay Thompson, and Paul George.

Sun Ce couldn't stop Rondo, but it was still easy to stop Parker. However, the opponent played very hard, defending him from the outside + close-range double-teaming, letting him play one-on-one; if he was to be the screen executor, he would never give him the opportunity to catch the ball and shoot to find the feel!

After the screen, Nash got an open opportunity, and he chose to do it himself without suspense. Just like the screen with Sun Ce in the first half of the quarter, he took a step and shot a three-pointer... Unfortunately, this time it didn't go in.

Yi Jianlian tried to rush for the offensive rebound to find a second offensive opportunity, but was blocked by Split. Paul George, who cut in to grab the rebound, was also blocked by Duncan, and the rebound bounced out of bounds.

The Spurs took the opportunity to make a substitution. Paul George almost got rid of Duncan just now. Fortunately, Duncan was mobile enough. But you can't expect Duncan to defend Paul George every time when he has no ball.
