Chapter 207 Outnumbered, Powerless
·
Wo Yao Huo Le
In the next few minutes, the Spurs continued to double-team Qin Xiao with various high-intensity.
As long as Qin Xiao holds the ball, he will be flanked by many players.
They used this method to force Qin Xiao to pass the ball. What's even more tragic is that Jamison and Degulok felt cold today.
Although they had many open shot opportunities, they just couldn't make the ball.
Qin Xiao was restricted and couldn't shoot outside.
In this way, the Lakers must rely on the inside twin towers for all their points.
However, in the matchup with Duncan, although Howard can occupy a certain strength advantage, it is limited to this.
It is unrealistic for him to single-play Duncan all the time. Fortunately, Gasol has a greater advantage when facing Split.
And he was in pretty good form tonight, hitting three mid-range shots in a row, which kept the point difference from being widened too much.
However, according to this momentum, perhaps the Lakers have already declared a collapse by the end of the first half.
In the last three minutes of the first quarter, the current score between the two sides is 14:22.
The Lakers are already eight points behind the Spurs, and Qin Xiao has only scored two points so far.
It's not because he didn't play well, but because the Spurs didn't give him any shot space at all.
The only two points he got were free throws after a foul.
"Kobe was suspended, Qin Xiao suffered unprecedented defensive pressure!"
"I have to say that Popovich is also very bold. This defensive method can certainly restrain Qin Xiao, but once the Lakers shoot from the outside, it will be a disaster for the Spurs!"
"Popovich made the right bet tonight. The Lakers' perimeter feels cold. If Jamison and the others fail to recover, the Lakers have absolutely no chance of winning this game."
In the Longguo Sports studio, Zhang Lili analyzed the live broadcast.
The game entered the rotation stage, and the Spurs did not withdraw the gdp combination at the same time, deliberately keeping Ginobili who was in hot form tonight, and the young Kaka was also left on the court.
For the Lakers, Qin Xiao and Gasol continued to fight together.
Under normal circumstances, Gasol will definitely be replaced, but today's situation is special, the Lakers need to rely on Gasol to score.
The game continued. I thought Qin Xiao would face less defensive pressure when entering the rotation stage.
However, the Spurs still guard him strictly. Other Lakers players can score at will, but Qin Xiao can't.
Popovich is very aware of the strength of this young man. This guy is a super scorer who scored 30 points in a single quarter in the playoffs!
If you let it go, it may explode suddenly!
In the remaining time of the first quarter, the two sides played back and forth.
Pau Gasol, who fought high-intensity, lived up to expectations and withstood the scoring pressure.
He used his superb inside skills, combined with a soft touch, to help the Los Angeles Lakers struggle to score points.
With Manu Ginobili's ultra-long three-pointer at the buzzer, the first quarter came to an end.
At 22:31, the Spurs returned to the home court and took a nine-point lead.
A nine-point lead in a single quarter is definitely a perfect dream start for the Spurs.
During the break during the festival, the camera showed the benches of both sides.
On the Lakers bench, the players were a little depressed. They knew that tonight's game might not be easy, and they were prepared in their hearts.
But no one expected that they would fall behind by nearly double digits in the first quarter.
To make matters worse, Qin Xiao was completely locked up by the other party!
You know, he is the first offensive core of the Lakers, and his scoring average is higher than that of Kobe.
In Kobe's absence, Qin Xiao was locked up again, which is equivalent to the fact that the Lakers' two super scoring points have all failed!
This is a situation they have never encountered before, and it is difficult to think of a good solution for a while.
Head coach D'Antoni wants to make changes, but he has nothing else in his mind except running and bombing and star singles.
In the past, when encountering problems that he could not solve, Qin Xiao or Nash would make some suggestions. Tonight, even these two fell into silence.
Especially Qin Xiao, since he entered the nba, the first quarter of the game tonight was the darkest moment of his career!
Only two points in a single quarter, creating a career low.
He was very dissatisfied with his performance, and he was always competing with himself in his heart.
Many times, he wanted to attack forcefully, but was blocked by the opponent's frantic double-teaming.
Under that frenzied double-team defense, his two major skills [super-speed dribbling] and [indeterminate shooting] all lost a certain degree of threat.
Originally, he thought that mastering these two skills would be enough to sweep the entire league.
Even if Kobe doesn't play, he can still lead the Lakers to win the championship!
But now it seems that the situation is not what he expected.
On the other side, the Spurs are on the bench.
"Everyone did a good job tonight. I am very satisfied with the restrictions on Qin. In the second quarter, we must continue to maintain this defensive intensity. Qin must not find opportunities to score consecutively!"
Popovich is still emphasizing the mad dog defense against Qin Xiao!
In the past two days, he definitely emphasized this matter more than ten times.
Everyone in the Spurs team was about to hear calluses, but no one dared to stand up to refute old man Bobo's words.
Facts have proved that Popovich's targeted tactics have achieved temporary success.
The Spurs played a huge advantage by restricting Qin Xiao.
Soon after the break, the second quarter began.
The Lakers didn't make any changes during the intermission.
This is doomed that they will continue to be suppressed in the second quarter.
At the beginning of the second quarter, under the duel of the rotation lineup, the Lakers were still able to stalemate one or two.
But when all the main players from both sides returned, the Purple and Gold Army instantly fell into a disadvantage.
In the matchup with Qin Xiao, Xiaoka also regained the confidence lost in the previous two games.
With the help of his teammates, he kept Qin Xiao's attacks out of the penalty area time and time again.
When the defense gets tougher, the offense gets better too.
With more than a minute left before the end of the second quarter, Kaka ran out of space with the help of a screen, hit a mid-range jumper, and scored his tenth point.
This is the first time he has scored in double figures since entering the Western Conference Finals.
In the previous two games, under Qin Xiao's marking, his scoring was only in single digits.
Tonight can be regarded as venting all the depressed emotions that have been accumulated in my heart for a long time.
After the mid-range jump shot was hit, a rare smile appeared on his paralyzed face.
It's just that the way this guy smiles is uglier than crying, so it's better not to laugh...
In this regard, Qin Xiao was also helpless, for the first time he felt powerless!
