"In five seconds, the whole court completed the buzzer-beating dunk. This is really amazing!" Zhang Lili boasted.
"With Chen Yan's dunk, the Knicks tied the score at 23 before the end of the first quarter. The Spurs did a good job on the defensive end in this game, but they were still close and gaps were revealed in the last few seconds." Yu Jia said.
"That's right, this is the scariest thing about Chen Yan. You can't give him a chance or a little space, otherwise he will punish you with points." Zhang Liang said.
Chen Yan's first quarter statistics were 11 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds.
Although Chen Yan had many wonderful shots in the first quarter, his efficiency was not high.
One of the reasons for Chen Yan's low efficiency is also related to his teammates' inability to shoot. If his teammates can't find the touch, the Spurs can focus more of their defense on Chen Yan.
Nelson didn't scold the Knicks players. It's not their fault that they can't make outside shots. Sometimes random accusations can make players timid.
It's better to miss than not dare to take the shot.
Instead, Popovich scolded the Spurs players.
He felt that the Spurs were too lax at the end of the first quarter. Facing players like the Knicks and players like Chen Yan, they could not slack off for a second.
In the second quarter, Chen Yan played with the substitute lineup.
During the playoffs this season, Nelson has done this more than once.
If you win some games, you have to fight Chen Yan. Now Nelson understands D'Antoni more and more.
The Knicks' second team is led by Chen Yan, and the Spurs are led by Diaw.
This is the disadvantage of Ginobili mentioning the starting lineup. The starting lineup is more complete, but there is a gap in the firepower of the bench lineup.
After 2 minutes of play, the Knicks opened the score to 31-25.
Popovich took advantage of a dead ball and quickly replaced Duncan and Parker.
Popovich is not going to hold back on hiring tonight.
Parker took charge of the situation as soon as he came on the court.
After taking advantage of the cover, Parker suddenly found Diaw.
Diaw hit from mid-range.
31:27.
Parker celebrated with a high-five after Diaw scored.
Diaw hadn't had such a good shot before Parker came on the court.
Knicks offensive round.
Barea wanted to find Chen Yan after halftime.
DeJuan Blair stayed close to Chen Yan and refused to let him catch the ball.
Now players all over the league know that if they want to guard Chen Yan, the best way is to prevent him from catching the ball easily.
When the basketball comes to Chen Yan, it will be difficult to guard him.
"Beep!"
The referee blew the whistle and called a foul on DeJuan Blair.
DeJuan Blair's movements were too obvious. In order to prevent Chen Yan from catching the ball, almost his whole body was hanging on him. He wanted to become Chen Yan's pendant on the spot.
For DeJuan Blair, it doesn't matter if it's a foul or not, he won't be on the court for too long.
The Knicks serve from the sideline.
A Lian serves to find Barea.
The intention of this ball was so obvious that Parker reached out and directly completed the steal.
Barea wanted to chase back, but his feet slipped and he fell to the ground.
Barea couldn't catch the ball without skidding. As soon as Parker got the ball, he turned on the keys of his little sports car and drove to the basket in one stroke!
Parker easily put the basket and scored two points.
31:29.
Att Arena cheered suddenly.
Parker came on and made an immediate impact.
The Knicks continued to attack.
After three passes and two leads, Barea made a three-pointer.
Not in.
After Duncan got the rebound, he was not in a hurry to release the ball, and passed the ball to Parker after ensuring the safety of the surrounding area.
Parker steadily passed the half court and the Spurs fell into position.
After continuous conduction, no good opportunities were found.
DeJuan Blair looked left and right after taking the ball at the top of the arc and hesitated for three seconds.
Just when he was about to throw it to Duncan inside, Chen Yan jumped up and confiscated the ball.
This ball can be said to be due to Chen Yan's quick bounce, or it can be said that he has good awareness and predicted DeJuan Blair's actions in advance.
After landing, Chen Yan directly pushed back and overtook DeJuan Blair.
DeJuan Blair had no choice but to foul.
Chen Yan stood on the free throw line.
After making a free throw, Popovich replaced DeJuan Blair with Ginobili.
DeJuan Blair behaves like Chen Yan's toy on the court. If he continues to be left on the court, he will probably be fouled out in less than half a quarter.
After Ginobili came up, he and Parker took turns using the screen to attack the Knicks inside.
Duncan will force his way into the paint whenever he gets the chance.
The Spurs have a clear idea here, which is to attack the Knicks' weakest inside line.
David West and DeAndre Jordan in the audience were so anxious that they almost fell over.
Because the two were suspended, they could not sit on the bench and could only be in the audience.
But even so, they still insisted on coming to the game. If the Knicks win this game, they will be awarded directly. They don't want to miss the finals award ceremony.
The Spurs' efficiency improved significantly in the second quarter. They took more determined shots and fought more resolutely.
The Knicks have obviously become more difficult.
Three seconds before halftime, the score was 3 to 46.
The Spurs led by 13 points.
Battier sent a long pass and accurately found Chen Yan.
Chen Yan turned around immediately after catching the ball!
But instead of taking a shot, he took a step with his left hand and then shot a drift three-pointer.
This dribble was very important. Two Spurs defenders pounced on Chen Yan the moment he turned around.
If you shoot directly, you will be seriously disturbed even if you are not blocked.
Chen Yan cleverly avoided the defense and shot a three-pointer.
Basketball hits the board!
49:59.
There was some luck involved in this shot, but luck is also part of the game of basketball.
"Beautiful! Three-pointer at the buzzer!" Zhang Liyi shouted.
"Hitting buzzer-beaters in two consecutive quarters, Chen Yan is still unstoppable tonight, but besides Chen Yan, the Knicks need a second scoring point!" Yu Jia said.
"If the Knicks' players' shooting percentage still does not improve in the second half, then the Spurs will focus more defensive power on Chen Yan, and then the Knicks' game will become more difficult." Zhang Liangyi also expressed his hope worry.
Chen Yan scored 24 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds. He scored as many points as the entire team.
Except for Chen Yan, the team shot 30.5% from the field, including an embarrassing 23% from three-point range.
Except for Chen Yan, only Curry and Battier have hit three-pointers.
"Stephen, how are you?" Chen Yan walked up to Curry during the intermission.
"Damn, they keep looking for opportunities to attack my nose." Curry took off his mask and said.
In this game, he saw Spurs players taking turns making small moves on Curry.
Chen Yan saw all this.
"These bastards, I will fight back against them in the second half." Chen Yan patted Curry on the shoulder and said.
"Chen, calm down, the team still needs you."
"What I mean by counterattack is my performance on the field. I will destroy them with points." Chen Yan said.
Curry said: "I'll go to the corner and help you open up space."
Chen Yan said: "I need you to use scoring to help me share the pressure."
Curry nodded: "I will shoot more resolutely in the second half."
Nelson said the same thing as Curry at halftime.
He knew that the team's outside shooting percentage was not high in the first half, so he should be more decisive in the second half.
This is Nelson's basketball philosophy. You can shoot inaccurately but you can't be afraid to shoot. Maintaining confidence in shooting is the basis for winning everything.
