249 anxious game

While watching with Bao Wen's sad face, the Suns finally played their own style inspired by Zhang Chen's momentum. This style made them burst out in a short moment so that the Spurs could not underestimate the power, and their score became like cutting melons and vegetables again. In this case, the Suns finally began to struggle to catch up with the score they had just lost.

At this moment, the Spurs were stunned by a series of combination punches of the Suns. They were beaten by the Suns and made them a little black and blue. It's just that when a thin man fights with a fat man, the fat man's skin is rough and thick. Even if he is fooled by the thin man in an instant, they can quickly really react.

In this case, although the Suns have just achieved a lot of offensive results, the Spurs quickly launched a counterattack. Their defense is still down-to-earth, their fists are still unparalleled, and their attack is still unparalleled. Each time they take action can bring the Suns's to turn upside down.

So, soon after Zhang Chen felt that the situation was slightly better, the Suns began to collapse again. The Spurs' attack was like slowly dissecting a strong bull with a knife, and they slowly cut the bull into pieces. Therefore, the Suns' attack was once again suppressed by the Spurs.

Unfortunately, the Suns were not too miserable to be suppressed by their opponents. After all, when the Spurs reacted and began to play the Suns again, the first half was almost time, and the Suns finally barely kept the difference within 5 points. At the end of the first half, the score between the two sides was 40:35, which may be the Suns' lowest score in the first half since this season.

In the locker room, Zhang Chen even felt that he was out of breath and could not sit on the stool. He could only walk slowly in the locker room. The Spurs' suppression of them was so crazy. In the last few minutes before the end of the first half, the Suns were left with Zhang Chen and Nash. Although the personal ability of Xiao Si in the inside line is quite strong, under the defensive system tailored for him by Popovich, he is trapped in the shoal and the tiger falls into Pingyang. His offensive efficiency is quite low. So far, he has only scored 7 points.

Zhang Chen is the player with the highest score in the game. His current score is 16 points, almost half of the score of the Suns. After Bowen's exit, Zhang Chen was finally able to fully exert his strength, asking for Ginobili's head, and at the same time, he also brushed two flashing assists.

These two assists naturally ushered in surprise cheers from the audience, and also made Zhang Chen's data of this game more perfect.

It was not until now that Zhang Chen really realized the pressure of defense and the sense of oppression brought by real defense. The most important reason why the Spurs can press the Suns under their bodies today is their defense. Their defense trapped the Suns, so that their attack can't get the effect they deserved. Over time, the Suns have been exhausted and can't stand their defense at all. And the Spurs' attack of the Suns can't be prevented at all. In this state of trade-off, it is natural to imagine that the Suns will be suppressed. Zhang Chen walked around the locker room, and then sat on his own stool, frowning.

D'Antoni also locked his eyebrows. It can be seen that he is not in a good mood. The Suns' hatred of the Spurs is not only a matter of players and fans, but also his head coach. Although he has more respect for the Spurs, it can't stop his hatred, and most importantly, he is really fully aware of the defensive pressure of the Spurs today.

The iron cable crosses the river without dripping. The Spurs' defense really taught D'Antoni a lesson. He found that the original defense was never so useless. For example, in this game, if they could have a good defense to limit the Spurs' attack, at least they would not be in such a hurry.

D'Antoni leaned against the wall and closed his eyes. He could see that he was thinking, so no one disturbed him. Everyone was thinking about their own affairs.

People's hearts are a little separated. Zhang Chen looked at everyone and knew that they might really have no big hope for this series. The Spurs' attack and defense were well organized, and the advance and retreat were orderly, so that the Suns had no way to start. And now the Suns have the worst morale problems. Everyone looks uncomfortable. They don't have much confidence in their game.

Zhang Chen sighed and closed his eyes. He was also a member who had no confidence in the game.

The second half of the game began as scheduled, and the two sides sent the main force. Although Zhang Chen felt very tired, he still stepped on the court without hesitation. He knew that the Suns could not live without him at this time. The Suns have lost several offensive firepower points. If they lose even him, the Suns will definitely collapse even more. At that time, no one can stop the end.

The first ball is the Spurs. They still use the most harmonious and perfect team to attack. After the rotation of teammates, the basketball finally came to Duncan's hands. Duncan was still expressionless and still played the board with his most stable 45° angle. The basketball and basket were as obedient as ever.

The gap between the Suns and the opponent has widened by two points again, and now it is still Ginobili who defends Zhang Chen. The two followed each other for half-time, and then the Suns began a new round of attack. After looking for a while and couldn't find a more confident offensive point, Nash finally had to break through and stop the jump shot, and then was slapped by Duncan, who was inside, and the morale of the Suns suddenly sank to the bottom.

... The game in the third quarter was held in this sad situation. Zhang Chen has tried his best. In this quarter, he shot two points and three shots. At the end of the third quarter, he raised his score to 23 points, but this did not help the Suns much. The Suns are still moving deeper. The direction of the abyss fell. At the end of this quarter, the Suns scored a total of 58 points, while the Spurs have scored 69 points, the Suns have stood on the edge of the cliff, and they are 11 points behind their opponents!

Back in the locker room, the atmosphere was dead. D'Antoni couldn't help his temper. He threw the tactical board to the ground and shouted, "Who can tell me what happened to this shit?" Who can tell me why we don't have the power to resist in front of the Spurs?

Everyone didn't say anything and was still closing their eyes to refresh their minds. De Anthony was even more angry and said, "Okay! You are all a group of soft eggs... At the critical moment, you gave up your dream of victory... You seem to be boneless guys. What I see is just a fool full of fatigue and giving up!"

Although no one spoke, the Suns players already have an anger on their faces. If D'Antoni continues to talk, it may lead to chaos in the scene. However, D'Antoni did go on: "We've been working hard for a season!" 82 regular season games! There are also five playoffs ahead! We have made remarkable achievements. We are the first in the West... But now, I want to ask you, do you want to completely waste your efforts at this time? Do you want our efforts to wither like that this season? Stand up, guys... We are still the number one Sun team in the West, and we have the most perfect determination!"

When D'Antoni said the last sentence, although everyone felt that it was dog-blooded, they also stood up one after another and finally shouted for victory. Anyway, no one wanted to let their efforts of a season be in vain in the end. D'Antoni smiled tiredly, and then walked out of the dark player channel again with everyone.

The Spurs found that although they have defeated the backbone of the Suns, they are still a group of energetic players standing in front of the Spurs, each of whom is full of hope.

"It seems that these guys are back again." Parker smiled bitterly next to Duncan, and Duncan said, "But they will go back, won't they?"

Parker laughed and then began to defend Nash, now Nash is controlling the ball.

Nash came to the half and found that the Suns had changed the way no one dared to catch the ball most of the first three quarters. Everyone began to fight against their own defensive players.

Nash finally passed the basketball to Xiao Si's hand. Xiao Si began to turn against Duncan and finally began to lay up. However, Xiao Si was a little too impatient. The basketball did not fly according to his imagination, but flew out and was grabbed by Marion.

"I'll do it!" Marion used a middle shot, but unfortunately he still didn't hit it, but the more evil thing was that the rebound was grabbed by the Suns again.

The morale of the Suns was quite sufficient when they started the fourth quarter, but after a few missed shots, they were also a little impatient, and their morale began to have a subtle reflection.

"Pear the ball!" Seeing this, Nash felt that he could not hesitate and immediately asked Xiao Si for the ball. Xiao Si quickly passed the basketball out and passed it to Nash's hands.

"I'll do it!" Facing the defensive lineup of the Spurs, which is like a copper wall and iron wall, and the bloodthirsty light on everyone's face, Zhang Chen said lightly to Nash.

"I'll do it!" Zhang Chen said the same thing in front of the Nuggets, and then he used a dunk to make the Nuggets speechless and opened the prelude to the collapse. Now, when the team was in trouble, he said it again. Nash suddenly felt that this guy had an indescribable temperament. Although he did not have good command and popularity at present, he showed an innate leadership temperament at the critical moment - every time the team got into trouble, he did not hesitate.

Such a leadership temperament is the most invincible. Some people have done statistics that Kobe and James have a much worse shooting rate at the critical moment. Kobe is only 29%, while James is 50%, but no one has ever said that James is a cold-blooded killer at the critical moment. On the contrary, They all felt that the black mamba was the most poisonous snake at the critical moment. The reason here is that Kobe dares to take on the whole team at the critical moment. He dares to shoulder the success or failure of the whole team on his own. He is willing to be the loser. Of course, this is not to say that James dares not take responsibility, but that he chooses to put his hopes on his teammates too much at the critical moment.

And Zhang Chen, although unsculpted, the leadership temperament that dares to take on is already exposed!

The basketball came to Zhang Chen's hand. Zhang Chen faced Ginobili in front of him and slowly received the basketball to the right side of his body. Ginobili has suffered Zhang Chen's loss, and now he is naturally meticulous and dares not let his defense have any gap that can be used by Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen summoned Bell again. His current ball control and breakthrough skills do not make him have the ability to forcibly break through people like Ginobili. Now he still needs to use his teammate's blocking. Bell stood on Zhang Chen's side. Zhang Chen and his cooperation were familiar and quickly rushed out from his left. This speed had reached its peak in a short moment. Although Ginobili already knew that Zhang Chen was going to use this move, in front of the absolute speed established by Zhang Chen, he had to be in Zhang Chen's After him, he caught up.

Zhang Chen soon came to the inside line of the Spurs, and then put away the basketball. The inside line of the Spurs has been running crazily. While defending Zhang Chen, they also did not let Xiao Si and others show their vacancy. This defense made Zhang Chen quite uncomfortable. He found that his way forward had been given by several mountains of the Spurs. Blocked.

The basket is close at hand, but unfortunately there are the Spurs players in front of him, which makes Zhang Chen feel a little painful. His last choice is to jump back.

The body rose slightly in the air. The ball took Zhang Chen's hope, the hope of whether the Suns could regain its momentum, and finally flew into the basket. Zhang Chen's graceful jump shot posture once again became the most brilliant picture in the camera. Zhang Chen's shot was quite empty. He almost wiped the net and fell into the last hole, and didn't even make any friction with the nets.

"OH, Fengshen! Chen!" The audience saw that Zhang Chen finally picked up the offensive flag again after several failed attacks of the Suns, and then they found the object of cheering. They were also suppressed for too long.

The score was 60:69, and the Suns' backward score returned to double digits. Zhang Chen and his teammates high-fiveed, and everyone's morale finally began to rise.

There is no doubt that the Suns can only have the capital to collide with the Spurs if they have morale.

The Suns finally found what they had to have. After Zhang Chen's opening goal, they finally started their offensive frenzy. In just five minutes, they raised their score to 72 points, while the Spurs' score rose to 80 points. Their lead is only eight points, and now the Suns have the ball.

Nash controlled the ball slowly through the half, and finally shot three points directly outside the three-point line, finally bringing the score gap back to 5 points!

The whole audience was cheering! It's been a long time since they were so close to their opponents.

Then, Popovich called a pause. D'Antoni smiled and high-fived everyone. Seeing that the Spurs were forced out of the timeout by them, he was also much more comfortable. He had been beaten by them for so long, and now it was finally the Suns' turn to fight back. Only Zhang Chen was a little worried. After the game began, after each attack came to the frenzy, the Spurs would soon rise again. The Suns were forced to the current score difference step by step.

When he paused back, Bao Wen was already able to play. His eyes sparkled with hatred for Zhang Chen. When he and Zhang Chen met again, the defensive action was even greater.

Zhang Chen doesn't have much way to deal with this cowhide candy. He is far from being a top striker now. In the face of such a defense, he can only run out of his position as much as possible. The Spurs became lively again after the timeout. Their attack was still like a precision instrument, punching to the flesh, and their defense was even harder. They even pushed their defensive fire point directly to the distance from the free throw line to the three-point line, which made Zhang Chen's sudden stop jump shot several direct cups. Ju.

The Spurs launched a counterattack again. Fortunately, at this time, Xiao Si finally liberated a little offensive resistance. Under his attack, the Suns barely survived.

However, with two minutes left in the game, the Suns had fallen behind by 9 points. Although it was their ball rights, most people were not very hopeful about the Suns. The Spurs suppressed the Suns for one game, and there was no reason for them not to continue to suppress the Suns in the last two minutes.

Besides, this is a gap of 9 points! It's not two or three points. Nine points can already form an insurmountable heaven. Nine points need three three-pointers or five two-pointers, and the Suns are basically hopeless.

Some of the fans in the audience have begun to leave, and the rest of the locals are looking forward to a miracle. In their opinion, the game is not over, and everything is possible.

D'Antoni looked at the sweaty players and had a strange feeling in his heart. He knew that the Suns were basically hopeless now, but even with the last bit of possibility, he didn't want to give up. It's not a joke to lose a series at home. You can't win at home. How can you win away?

D'Antoni looked at his tactical board and looked for a possible solution, but still felt that the Spurs' defense was like a copper wall, basically unable to find a breakthrough in the inside line, and the outside line... D'Antoni suddenly felt that he thought of a possibility, although this may be a little crazy.

Does he have any other choice at this time? Besides, even if this plan is a little crazy, even if it is not implemented, they will definitely lose this game.

Thinking of this, he was much more cheerful, and then picked up the tactical board and said to everyone, "Gather together... I think maybe we can find some way to achieve our reversal at the last moment!"

"What?"

"What?" The team members listened to him and came over.
