Chapter 777 Basketball should be played like this

The first half of the 76ers was magnificent.

81 points, this is the finals half-time score.

Seven years ago, the Spurs formed another championship team and easily swept through James and his Cavaliers who let their talents shine on the top of the world for the first time.

In those four games, the Cavaliers scored more than 81 points in just two games.

Moreover, one of the games scored only 82 points, and the other was 92 points.

In the history of the Spurs, they have never been scored so high in half by other teams. And the Sixers have done it, just like their brilliant journey this season.

At the end of the first half, they once played against the Spurs with such a lineup: Weisha, Rondo, Hayward, Odom, and Cousins.

When even Cousins ​​was able to dribble from a high position and hand the ball over to his teammates, the 76ers game completed the ultimate tactics expected by countless fans: all five players on the field could dribble through and score and pass the ball.

Compared with them, in the Spurs lineup, Leonard and Green only look at the shooter. Bonner and Duncan communicate with each other inside and outside. Parker can break through with the ball alone, and the gap in creativity on the offensive end is too big.

If the 76ers were still relying on the power of the Big Three in the first two games, then in this game, the Wolf King integrated into the wolf pack and they merged well - so they could play such a thrilling first half.

In the second half, the Spurs' defense became bold and adventurous.

At that time, the amazing touch of the 76ers gradually faded, and they decided to let Wei Xia play the main role.

One-on-one, Wei Xia can crush anyone from the Spurs. As a result, the Spurs first pursued the goal of not let Wei Xia touch the ball. Even if he gets the ball, it will be a bad pass. They must ensure that the 76ers' exit point is forced. At the same time, if Wei Xia gets the ball and double-team, one of Rondo and Hayward will be released.

Just so happened that Rondo's long shot was unstable, and Hayward's touch was resting after halftime.

The Spurs chased 6 points in a row, and the 76ers called a timeout.

Jay Wright replaced Rondo, replaced Holiday, and Weisha went to No. 1 position.

From then on, Wei Xia directed the pass from high positions, Holiday/Hayward cut out from the wing, or received the ball and directly broke or shot, or opened up space. If it was Holiday's second pass, then it was a wing-on-one fight. If it was double-teamed, it was then given to Wei Xia on the wing or Holiday on the top of the arc.

The Spurs adapted to the situation and asked Green to tightly entangle Holiday and restrict him from receiving the ball, forcing Holiday and Hayward to the bottom line, and then attacked the two bottom corners. On the offensive end, Parker beat Wei Xia several times in a row. The biggest disadvantage of letting Wei Xia play the No. 1 position is that he has to face Parker, who is the fastest on the opponent.

The ACL tear caused Wei Xia's lateral movement speed to decrease a lot, so it can only be judged by prediction. But Parker didn't play any psychological battle with him, so he just called the pick-and-roll and the gap was just a little bit.

The Spurs' tenacity is beyond imagination. They are all modeled in basketball games from offense to defense.

They replaced French magician Dior again and launched a second wave of counterattack.

Dior held the ball on both sides of the left and right and left to find Green's bottom line and the back-point cut. With Leonard's three-pointer, the 76ers were beaten 6-0 within 46 seconds, and Jay Wright immediately stopped. Two minutes later, Hayward made a 4th foul on his back.

At that time, the Spurs caught the gap to 11 points.

They were at most 23 points behind, and they caught up to 11 points in one quarter, and they seemed to have a good chance of completing a big reversal.

Hayward's departure has had an underestimated impact on the 76ers.

Although the whole world says that he can only play an All-Star season by holding Wei Xia and Cousins' thighs, no one in the 76ers will take it seriously. Hayward cannot defend as much as Wei Xia alone - this is not embarrassing. Looking at the world, there is nothing that can be compared with Wei Xia alone, and there is no one that can defend alone, and it does not exist - Hayward is a "active" talent.

His projection threatens every point on the outside line, and he can cast any point, which is life.

He can run, move around, and does not eat the ball rights, this is movement.

At the same time, his ball-holding offense was buried in the 76ers. Because there were many ball-holders in the team, it was not his turn to hold the ball, but when Wright wanted to put on his 41 lineup, Hayward was so full that he could swing the shooting guard, small forward, and power forward.

The fourth section begins immediately.

Wei Xia broke through with the ball on the top of the arc and beat four. The heroic posture in the air made Spurs fans unimaginable - the player on the Spurs who could fly like this was George Gerwen.

Wei Xia's goal stabilized the morale of the army, although he failed to score the free throw.

The two sides began the final battle.

Green's empty cut forced 76ers to switch defenses, and Duncan took the opportunity to get a position in the penalty area. But the 76ers understood their routine and were not panicked.

On the 76ers' own side, Wei Xia kept playing against Leonard and Green with the ball. She even played a fancy inside pass with Cousins, assisting Holiday in breaking through the baseline and dunked.

At this time, the Spurs' offensive problems were already very big. Apart from giving the ball to one of the GDP, they had no positional fighting routines.

This is what they are worried about and what 76 people are expecting.

If you can only rely on the stars to fight alone in the end, the 76ers only need to hand over the ball to Wei Xia continuously.

There is no doubt that he can beat anyone in the basketball world.

The Spurs finally entered the final counterattack and stopped playing with the silence.

Ginobili broke through, Parker broke through, and Leonard used his long arm to break the ball to counterattack. This was the struggle before his death, but they still showed an old look.

Tim Duncan turned around to Cousins, but missed a basket over the air. After Rondo's counterattack, Parker fouled, the last trace of fighting spirit of the San Antonios also disappeared.

The Spurs' three-wave counterattack, one round of fighting, and then declined, and three out. In the end, the problem was consistent: the tactics were cut off by 76ers, the signboard's outside transfer ball could not be played, and they were forcibly dragged into the time when using the stars' personal skills to solve it. Although they could play many cards, none of them was worth more than the 76ers' ace.

From the first quarter to the fourth quarter, the coaching ability of the Spurs coaching staff has been fully reflected.

They kept changing their moves, looking for various solutions and possibilities in front of the 76ers who had entered the state at the beginning of the game.

In the end, Kawhi Leonard was probably the one who comforted the Spurs.

Although Wei Xia scored 40 in his defense for the second time in three games, his fighting spirit was not destroyed.

When the outcome was decided, he still wanted to score some points on Wei Xia.

Last year's finals, he was a model of a fledgling young man in history; but he has always been a little strange since then.

It is surprising that he has made progress in his technology. His back, mid-range shots and single-handed matches are occasionally used. It feels surprising. It seems that he has never tried his best. Because he knows these skills, he rarely uses them in the game, as if he is deliberately humble.

Most of the time, he is safe and has only murderous aura when he is defensive and when he is catching defensive rebounds in one-stop pushing and counterattacking.

But the showdown with Wei Xia shows his spirit against James last year.

That is the ambition that can be seen by the naked eye.

All those who meet superstars who are afraid before fighting are destined to be unable to become successful. However, the courage to fight with the other party if you are willing to sacrifice yourself is the future that is promising.

Today, Leonard scored 28 points, which was his newest in the finals.

Although the Spurs lost the 76ers tonight, Leonard has won a lot of praise for himself. He is recognized as the new Spurs that will support the Spurs after Duncan retires.

In the final game, the 132-106, and the 76ers scored an incredible high score, defeating the Spurs 26 points.

This battle allowed them to regain their home advantage, and also had the most exciting half-time performance in the history of the finals. Although the shooting rate in the second half dropped sharply, this is an inevitable result of basketball.

Unless it is a team with a poor level, such a high hit rate cannot last the entire game.

Wei Xia strongly scored 45 points, 12 rebounds and 7 assists. Some people say that this is LeBron James-like data, but the latter never averaged 42.3 points in the finals.

42.3 points, this is Wei Xia’s average score since three games.

Due to his existence, Leonard's 25-game performance in two consecutive games still left people with a bad impression that he was exposed to shit by Wei Xia.

"See you the day after tomorrow, young man." Wei Xia said to Leonard.

Leonard wanted to leave, just like him, as irrational and emotional as a robot.

But that wasn't him.

He had a strong emotion to vent, and he showed a rare ferociousness and said vulgarly: "FUCK! This will never be the result of the next game!"

At that moment, Wei Xia was even willing to ask Leonard to say five more trash words mixed with "FUCK" at the cost of losing the game.

The evil thoughts lasted for a short time, and Wei Xia did not lose her mind.

Leonard left their home court with strong reluctance and unfairness.

Wei Xia still has a lot of reporters to deal with.

At the press conference that night, hundreds of media outlets surrounded the visiting room with a stinky smell, and even with the air conditioner turned on, they could still smell the reporters' own odor.

The "racial talent" of white people is so pungent.

Wei Xia pointed out that one of them wanted a reporter.

He stood up and said, "Wish, you scored 42 points in the first quarter* and broke the NBA Finals' historical single-quarter scoring record. Do you know which team is holding this record?"

Wei Xia asked tentatively: "76 people?"

"Yes, the Philadelphia 76ers scored a single quarter record of 41 points in two finals in 1967. After 1.47 years, they were surpassed by a brand new 76ers. What do you think?"

"I feel it... a lot. I will watch this game for my children and other children who are interested in basketball." Wei Xia said sincerely, "It's not just because we performed well, but also because our opponent, the San Antonio Spurs, they performed well. I must pay tribute to them. Both of our teams have played their best and tapped the potential of activate everyone on the list. This game can bring the children the right enlightenment - basketball can play very well, smoothly like water flow, and at the same time very efficient. After all, basketball should be played like this."
