Chapter 190 The Last Minute of Life and Death
·
Wo Yao Huo Le
Qin Xiao's sudden trash talk stunned Popovich for a moment.
In the game, it is more common for players from both sides to spray each other.
And like Qin Xiao, it is really rare to directly criticize the opposing head coach.
Not only Popovich, but everyone who heard these words was shocked.
The Spurs players on the sidelines, they absolutely defend Popovich.
They couldn't bear the tone that a first-year rookie dared to be so arrogant.
The next second, the players on the Spurs bench stood up one after another.
They all stared at Qin Xiao viciously, as if they wanted to rush up and beat him up.
But Popovich scolded: "What are you doing? It's just a child, there is no need to be as knowledgeable as him."
Then he turned his head to look at Qin Xiao, and said with a light smile, "You are a bit interesting, but I still have to advise you, young people, don't talk too much, and be careful not to slip your tongue!"
Qin Xiao frowned slightly, secretly thinking that he is indeed an old fox, so calm.
Kobe saw the clue, he knew that Qin Xiao was trying to irritate the other party and make them lose their minds and make some violations.
But Kobe knew very well what kind of person Popovich was. This time, Qin Xiao's little plan might come to nothing.
"Qin, there's no need to do this. The old man won't be fooled. What we should do now is to further strengthen the intensity of our confrontation, fight them to the end, and see who can last till the end!"
The game continued, and the Lakers began to frantically die on the defensive end.
This kind of defensive strength is by no means comparable to that in the first half. Under this kind of strength, the Spurs' team offensive efficiency can't help but start to decline.
Duncan was blocked by Howard, and the French sports car slowed down in the confrontation.
As for Xiaoka, he is still too young after all.
Facing Qin Xiao, it was difficult to have a chance to score.
And Kobe is more than enough to deal with Danny Green.
In this way, the Spurs instantly changed from active to passive.
With Qin Xiao breaking through and dunking successfully, the Lakers finally completed the overtake!
"Go-ahead, this is the first time the Lakers have taken the lead so far in this game."
"It's really not easy, they finally made it through!"
"It can be seen that the core players of the Spurs consume a lot of energy. Tim Duncan and Tony Parker are both gasping for breath."
"As for the Lakers, although Kobe's situation is not much better, Qin still looks energetic, and Howard is not very tired."
"With all due respect, if this continues, it will be very difficult for the Spurs to overtake the score again."
In the commentary seat, Kenny Smith opened his mouth to analyze.
……
A few minutes later, the third quarter ended, 76:80
The Los Angeles Lakers, who are playing at home, temporarily lead by four points.
"In the last quarter of the game, we need to minimize the confrontation as much as possible and avoid as much as possible on the offensive end. As for the defensive end, we need to do more defense to reduce the pressure on our teammates."
On the Spurs bench, Popovich was making arrangements for the final quarter of the game.
He knew very well that at this stage of the game, the competition was all about state.
Tactics are not very useful at this time.
Even if you run out of tactics, it's useless if you don't make a goal.
In fact, before the start of this round of the series, Popovich thought of the physical problem.
It's just that I didn't expect that the Lakers would carry out the confrontation so thoroughly, without giving them any chance to breathe.
Tonight, Howard's explosion at this point was something he didn't expect.
Because in the previous two rounds of the series, Howard's tactical status in the Lakers was not high.
Most of the time, it revolves around Kobe and Qin Xiao.
Therefore, before making deployments, Popovich prioritized these two people, but ignored the existence of Howard.
It now appears that he himself made a big mistake.
If the final result of this game is that they lose, then Popovich himself is to blame.
As the saying goes, a wise man will make mistakes if he thinks about it. Even a famous coach like Popovich will make mistakes sometimes.
On the other side, the Lakers are on the bench.
"Guys, we must withstand the pressure in the last quarter of the game. Their physical fitness has already experienced a serious crisis. What we have to do is to continue to maintain this confrontational intensity!"
The confidence of the mustache D'Antoni's speech became awesome in an instant.
He didn't have such confidence when the team fell behind earlier.
Soon, the last quarter of the game started.
For the Spurs, the GDP trio played at the same time, ready to make a final fight.
Looking at Manu in desperation, this is also the last trump card in Popovich's hand.
Compared to Duncan and Parker, Manu is the one with the most physical reserves.
In the fourth quarter, he will take on the burden of the team's offense.
Outside the three-point line, Ginobili did not choose to face Kobe Bryant head-on, but found an open shot through the cover.
"Shh!"
The wonderful sound of entering the net sounded, and the basketball made a hollow hit.
In the next round, it was Ginobili again.
This time, he directly made a three-pointer from the outside and scored again!
"Wow, the resilience of the Spurs is really full. Manu Ginobili stepped forward at the critical moment, and he deserves to be the team's best sixth man!"
Not to be outdone, Kobe looked back and turned his back on Manu alone, but when he encountered the Spurs' defense, he accidentally made a mistake and was intercepted by the opponent.
Ginobili rode away, and Qin Xiao chased after him.
But Yaodao is experienced, he glanced back and saw Qin Xiao who was chasing him.
Just as he was laying up, he deliberately slowed down and waited for Qin Xiao to take a step.
When Qin Xiaofei rushed over, he leaned back.
Under the collision, while using the inertia to score the ball, it also caused a foul for Qin Xiao.
With the extra penalty hit, the Spurs tied the score.
"I didn't expect it. I thought the Spurs were at the end of the road, but in the fourth quarter, Manu Ginobili came out."
"You never know how many surprise soldiers Popovich has under his hands. It's Manu now, and it may be someone else later."
Yang Yi couldn't help sighing.
"It's really not easy for the Lakers to win this game. Now it's up to who can withstand the pressure at the last moment."
Zhang Lili followed suit.
As time passed, the end of the game was getting closer.
But the scores of the two sides are still deadlocked, and the veterans of both teams are exhausted.
Kobe, Duncan and others were all panting heavily.
Sweat kept rolling down their cheeks, but none of them would choose to give up, and the fighting spirit in their eyes was always the same!
In the final minute of the game, Kobe held the ball from outside the three-point line, and the Spurs focused their defense on Qin Xiao.
After all, Kobe's physical energy consumption is huge, and his scoring efficiency has fallen off a cliff, which is not a big threat to the Spurs.
But Qin Xiao is different, he is young and has physical strength, as if he has inexhaustible energy, he must not let it go!
In the game, it is more common for players from both sides to spray each other.
And like Qin Xiao, it is really rare to directly criticize the opposing head coach.
Not only Popovich, but everyone who heard these words was shocked.
