Chapter 537: Duncan's Matching Hammer

"Tim, you go face him."

There was really no other way, Popovich came up with the final tactic, let's go straight.

"Robert, don't let Marion score too much. Take the shot yourself when you have the chance, and be decisive." To Horry, he could only urge him like this.

"Tony and Manu, after Tim pinned down the big pest, you broke through resolutely." Finally, he said to Parker and Ginobili.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Suns attacked.

"Hey, Duncan is facing the hammer?" Zhang Lili said in surprise.

"Hey, the hammer didn't go to the basket, but stayed in the low position on the left wing." Yu Jia laughed.

"He played a lot today, he may be a little tired." Zhang Lili laughed.

"I think he wants to waste Duncan there." Yu Jia laughed.

"Haha, the hammer is sometimes very cunning." Zhang Lili laughed.

Because Li Ba didn't go to the basket, Marion also pulled out. The Spurs' basket was emptied, and Marbury began to break through.

At the top of the arc, he and Posey made a pick-and-roll and entered the paint.

Ginobili switched defenses and chased down.

But his current strength is still not as good as Marbury's, including speed.

Duncan wanted to go to the basket, but Li Ba turned around and blocked him with both arms, blocking him from the paint.

"Beautiful offensive screen!" Barkley yelled in the TNT live broadcast.

His voice fell, Marbury made a layup and made a goal.

57:74, the Suns led by 17 points.

"Strength, strength, the power of the hammer combined with his current movement speed, Duncan can't squeeze him, and he can't get around him at all. I feel a headache for him."

Yu Jia shouted excitedly.

Zhang Li laughed out loud.

Spurs attack.

Duncan wanted to go to the basket, but was blocked by Li Ba. After several rounds, he couldn't squeeze in, so he had to go to the left wing to set up a low position.

"If this continues, Duncan may gain weight next season." Yu Jia complained.

"It's possible, haha!" Zhang Lili laughed.

At this moment, Ginobili suddenly started on the left wing, broke through Posey, and cut into the flank.

Then, a Parker pass from the top of the key came in just in time, to Ginobili.

When Ginobili received the ball, Duncan desperately entangled Li Ba so that he could not go to defend Ginobili.

Ginobili rushed past Liba and Duncan and into the paint.

Marion on the right wing was pulled to the right bottom corner by Horry, unable to defend in time.

"Shua!"

Ginobili made a layup.

59:74, the Spurs trailed by 15 points.

Sun attack.

Marbury first motioned for the others to pull away, and he made a pick-and-roll with Posey at the top of the arc again, using the wall to break through.

Li Ba also withstood Duncan, making it impossible for him to move to the basket in time.

Ginobili, who switched defenses, couldn't catch up, and in a hurry, he pulled Marbury down.

The referee blew his whistle, and Sun served again.

In the same way, he opened the pick-and-roll and followed the sudden-point tactics. Marbury broke through the paint from the top of the arc again.

This time Ginobili was more prepared and switched defenses quickly.

But Marbury chose to pass back and gave it to Posey.

Posey catches the ball at the top of the key, misplaces Parker, takes a calm jumper and hits a 3-pointer.

59:77, the Suns led by 18 points.

The Spurs attack and pull away.

Ginobili was running off the ball on the left wing when he saw Parker throw Marbury off him and immediately started to cut to the paint.

Parker passed the ball in immediately according to the tactical requirements.

As for the low position on the left wing, Duncan also desperately pestered Li Ba.

He is not as strong as Li Ba, but he is not weak either. With his strength, it is completely possible to hold Li Ba for a second.

And one second can change a lot of results.

Ginobili drove straight to the basket and hit another layup.

61:77, the Spurs trailed by 16 points.

"The Spurs still have to rely on Duncan, only he can hold the hammer. Popovich wants to rely on others to hold the hammer and let Duncan play Marion. It is unrealistic to take advantage. I can predict it now. The G3 game , Duncan will definitely match up with the Hammers, and the Spurs have no other tactics to play, just face the core, and whoever is stronger will win." Zhang Lili said.

Sun attack.

Li Ba walked towards the basket.

Duncan also wanted to push Li Ba outside and prevent him from entering, but he couldn't do it. Li Ba was stronger than him, and he was moving faster than him now, so Li Ba got close to the basket.

At this time, the other Suns players pulled away, so Li Ba singled out Duncan under the basket.

Duncan has made 4 fouls, beating him forcefully and continuing to beat him is the fastest way for the Suns to win.

Of course Duncan knew Li Ba's plan, so he went around.

But Li Ba suddenly moved a step to the right, and at this time Marbury's ball came in and he got it smoothly.

Duncan moved in place, directly close to the body, and put Li Bading two steps away from the left side of the basket.

Li Ba had no chance to attack the basket and time was running out, so he passed the ball to Battier on the left wing.

"It would be great if Hammer had a shot from close to the basket, and just use a small hook to solve Duncan." Seeing this, Yu Jia sighed.

"The ruler is long and the inch is short. Judging from Duncan's defense this time, his defensive strength is indeed strong, and he is impeccable." Zhang Lili laughed.

Li Ba passed the ball, he also left the paint, pulled directly to the wing, set a pick and roll for Battier, and blocked Bowen.

Battier took the opportunity to break through to the paint area, while Li Ba followed at the same time and cut into the paint area.

But Battier made a breakthrough from above, while Li Ba made a breakthrough near the bottom line.

In this way, Duncan took care of both up and down and fell into a defensive dilemma.

But he had no choice, moved up a step, and blocked the ball holder Battier.

Battier, on the other hand, smashed the ball down and hit the ground for a pass.

Li Ba caught the ball violently, and with a bang, the Spurs' basket was instantly blown up.

59:79, the Suns led by 20 points.

"Iron Hammer's shot is beautiful, and the cut-in after the flank pick-and-roll must move fast enough to complete the tactic." Zhang Lili laughed.

Spurs attack.

It is still a breakaway tactic after pulling away.

The Spurs seemed to have tasted the sweetness, and Ginobili cut again on the left wing.

But this time Marbury's defense was in place, and Parker failed to pass the ball in time. By the time the pass came out, Li Ba had already broken free from Duncan's entanglement and kept up with Ginobili.

Ginobili entered the paint with the ball, knowing that there was a hammer behind him, so he didn't dare to make a layup. He directly rushed to the basket with the ball, passed through the paint, and went to the right wing.

Li Ba followed him all the way, while Duncan handed it over to Percy.

At this time, Ginobili suddenly changed direction upwards and dropped Li Ba. After observing the situation under the basket, he decisively passed the ball to the basket.

"boom!"

Duncan caught the ball on Posey, then turned and pinned Posey for a dunk.

"Beep!"

Posey didn't have a chance to take off, the referee blew his whistle, and Duncan added a free throw.

61:79, the Spurs trailed by 18 points.

Although the goal was scored, Popovich shook his head.

The point difference was too big, and it was too late. He began to think about whether to give up this game and save energy for the next game?

But he was still a little unwilling, what if he could get it back?

At this time, Duncan made an extra free throw, 62:79, and the Suns attacked.
