Seven Hundred and Seventy-Five: Not Simple French Fat Man

The Grizzlies' active evolution caught the experienced Popovich by surprise. He never imagined that he would be the first to be given to the first army by Dave Jogel.

Popovich thought it would be a surprise game for the Grizzlies, but it turned out to be the exact opposite.

After the opening minutes, the Spurs have been very passive on the scene. Defensively, they couldn't adapt to the Grizzlies' mobility. Offensively, he has height in the paint but cannot gain a real advantage. Even in rebounding, the Spurs did not grab a few more rebounds than the Grizzlies.

Split attempted to hit Link twice, but failed. When a center can't hit the opponent hard in dislocation, can't help on the defensive end and can't effectively protect the rebound, then what's the need for him to be on the court?

So, with just four minutes into the game, Popovich made the first substitution when the Spurs were down by three.

"Jimmy Butler fouled Leonard, but the fouls haven't been counted yet, and the Spurs can't get to the free throw line. Huh? The Spurs are going to make a substitution, and it's only four minutes into the game, are they going to make a substitution? ?"

Under the slightly surprised eyes of Hubie Brown, Frenchman Boris Diaw stepped onto the court and gave Split a high five. The latter walked down dejectedly, although he knew he was just a fake starter. But even the fake starter was beaten too badly today.

After Dior comes on stage, Duncan will stand on the No. 5 position, and the Spurs will be officially formed!

Dave Jogel stood up from the bench with a serious expression. The mighty Oklahoma City Thunder was defeated by the Spurs' lineup!

But now, the Spurs are in a different situation than they were in the Western Conference semifinals.

In the Western Conference semifinals against the Thunder, the Thunder were led by the Spurs' first and fourth students. But today, it was the Grizzlies who first established the advantage with a lineup of one big and four small, and they became the more active side.

I just don't know who will have the last laugh in this big, four and small battle.

The game now is completely different from before.

Seeing the fat Boris Diaw walking towards him, Link couldn't believe that this guy had beaten Stoudemire on the Suns' training ground.

Dior's muscular lines are not at all obvious, and the jersey is stretched tight. Look closely, there is even a small belly!

It is said that Popovich urges Diao to lose weight in preseason training camp every season. Otherwise, Dior may not be able to maintain his current figure.

It is such a guy with a gray beard and a round body that looks unattractive. In fact, it was the culprit who killed Thunder!

Without him, Popovich couldn't have played so smoothly.

If the Spurs were a sports car, Popovich was the gearbox, and he was in control of the entire pace. The Spurs players are the engines, and they unleash their power under the control of the gearbox.

Dior, then, is the clutch that connects the engine to the transmission. It seems to have a simple function, but it is indispensable. In the playoffs, he averaged 9.2 points, 3.8 assists and 4.2 rebounds, which is completely a small "triple-double data".

Link waited in earnest, if you underestimate the fat man in front of you, then wait for a big loss.

The game restarts,

The Grizzlies fans are still cheering. In their opinion, a mere Boris Diaw can't change the situation at all.

The Spurs started their first offense since coming back from a timeout, and their offense was the same old-fashioned way, ripping through defenses with superb movement and conduction.

What about Dior? He is like an old man who goes out for a walk after drinking coffee. Take your time on the court and take your time.

Link was really not used to this rhythm. He had been fighting fiercely just now, but suddenly he relaxed.

Just then, Diaw received a pass from Parker in the middle distance. Dio turned his back to Link, and his body fat played a role at this time.

Diao's wide back completely separated Link from the basketball, preventing Link from completing the steal.

Dior sat on Link and pushed back twice. Just when everyone thought that Dior would use his weight advantage to post up Link, he suddenly passed the ball to the right bottom corner!

Over there, Danny Green just got off Iguodala's defense and got a fleeting shot!

As an off-the-ball shooter, you can't just move well. If your teammates can't find you, it's useless for you to run out of a gap as wide as a grassland.

But Danny Green is lucky, and he's on a team that's sure to catch the ball as long as it's open. He also has a seemingly unremarkable French teammate who always delivers deadly passes.

Diaw put the ball in Green's hands with precision and speed, and his passing ability didn't quite match his size.

Green catches the basketball and shoots immediately! Iguodala quickly blocked it, but Green's shot was faster!

For an off-ball shooter of his level, even a slight gap is enough!

Green made a three-point shot from the bottom corner, and Pau Gasol and Duncan fought hand-to-hand in the interior.

However, the three-pointer eventually jumped directly into the net. Danny Green tied the game, and his magic 3-pointer made it into the Western Conference finals.

Speaking of which, Green has averaged 47.5% of his three-pointers per game in the playoffs this season, which is a very exaggerated statistic. In the playoffs last season, Green's three-point shooting was only 30%.

On the one hand, Green's own three-point shooting level has indeed improved a lot. But without Popovich's senior-four and full-on-offense system, Green wouldn't get as many easy shots.

The score was tied, and many fans thought that the key to this goal was Green. It was Danny Green's magical three-pointer that turned the Spurs' decline.

But Link is very clear that the key to this goal is actually Dior!

Without his transfer and support, basketball would not have been sent to Green in such a timely manner.

No matter how good the shooter is, if there is no bullet, it cannot be killed in one hit. And Dio, the guy who delivered the bullets for Green.

This is Boris Dior, a cold-blooded killer who "borrowed a knife to kill"!

Later, Link found that the Spurs' defensive strategy had also changed. Leonard did not continue to defend himself, and the one in front of Link became Dior!

Link was a little surprised, what were the Spurs thinking? Diao may be an excellent system player, but he is by no means a master of one-on-one defense!

Link didn't hesitate. After receiving the basketball, he was ready to wipe Dior with speed.

Dior put Link a step away, just to beware of breakthroughs. Link changed his mind temporarily. He suddenly stopped and pulled out his hand from beyond the three-point line!

However, Dio seemed to see through Link's careful thinking. The moment Link took off and jumped, Diao blocked it, seriously interfering with Link's shot.

Only then did Link know that he was tricked! Dior deliberately gave Link a step, in fact, to induce Link to shoot!

This guy Dior is really a chicken thief!

Even the unanimous MVP would be hard-pressed to hit a 3-pointer when he was so heavily disrupted.

Link's three-pointer finally ended with a strike, and the Spurs had a chance to overtake the score!

This time, Diaw pushed Linkla beyond the arc. Dior also has a range. Although it is not as perverted and accurate as Danny Green, it cannot be casually released.

As a result, Duncan got a one-on-one opportunity with Pau Gasol in the inside,

With no outside interference, this is a true post-up matchup.

Although Duncan is a head shorter than Gasol, the "Stone Buddha" who has been active at No. 5 for a long time has become accustomed to this situation.

Leaning on Gasol with his back, the "Stone Man" hit a shot with an unpretentious turnaround jumper, and the Spurs overtook it!

The style of "big basic skills" has indeed been the same for decades, but it is this unpretentious trick that has made him one of the top insiders in the league until now.

Pau Gasol was beaten with no temper. Although he was good at defense, it was still difficult for him to contain Duncan in an undisturbed one-on-one.

Popovich smiled off the court, and the Spurs were completely open. He believes that after the first quarter, the Spurs will take the lead!

Link confronted Dio again, and Dio still looked harmless to humans and animals. But just now, Link had already experienced the Frenchman's defense.

Link suddenly remembered that in the original history, when the Spurs and the Heat played in the finals, Popovich seemed to often use Diaw to defend James, and the effect was very good.

Although Dior is slow, he can withstand the impact without shaking or fouling. To sum it up, Diaw won't directly seal a star, but he will make every goal of the star trouble.

Link did not shoot this time, but resolutely chose to accelerate the breakthrough.

But because Dior took a step, Link just accelerated when Dior's belly full of fat bounced back...

Link instantly felt that eight-pack abs was not as easy to use as a single "abs"!

Seeing that the breakthrough route was blocked, Link took a step back and prepared to shoot. However, Dio didn't hesitate, he just hurriedly raised his arms high, neither jumping nor lunging forward.

Just as Link was about to break through again, Duncan also double-teamed for a layup, and Link was surrounded!

"Perfect defense!" Even Hubie Brown seriously praised the Spurs, the team's system is really impeccable.

Link was double-teamed and his vision was blocked. Ultimately, the ball had to be returned to Conley.

But before Conley received the basketball, Leonard suddenly rushed out, stretched out his long arm, and intercepted Link's pass midway. Complete steals on the passing lane, which is Leonard's "reserved program".

Leonard took advantage of the situation to fast break, and the expressionless No. 2 stepped to the basket in a few steps and completed a one-handed dunk.

It felt like Leonard didn't jump much, just raised his long arm and dunked.

The Spurs' counterattack left the Grizzlies 4 points behind. The Grizzlies have been in trouble since Boris Diaw came on the court.

The small lineup that can beat the Thunder docilely is really good! It's not enough for the Grizzlies to just follow the first and fourth minors.

After Leonard's dunk, Popovich sauntered back to the bench.

He believes that this game has nothing to worry about.
