Chapter 293
In the Nets locker room,
The players looked gloomy, and were completely suppressed by the opponent in the second half of the second quarter.
Whether on offense or defense, the Nets' role players always had fatal problems at this moment.
Even with Carter leading the team, after Roy left the court, his firepower alone was not enough to compete with the entire Spurs team.
Besides, his poor organization was also fully exposed at this time.
He could only be forced into an endless singles cycle, and his hit rate plummeted.
This gave Coach Frank a headache. The problem caused by the team's over-reliance on Roy has been infinitely magnified at this moment.
The scoring ability of the bench cannot be said to be non-existent, but it can only be minimal.
Roy Carter has no chance to breathe at all.
You must know that Roy only has about 3 minutes to rest.
When Duncan and Ginobili of the Spurs both left the court,
they were directly beaten by a small climax of 13 to 0.
If Roy had not come on again in the last two minutes,
then the Nets would have entered the third quarter with a double-digit score difference at home!
Roy knew in his heart that he would not have a chance to rest for even a minute in the next game.
In this kind of bloody game, he could only grit his teeth and bear it!
Kidd, wearing training clothes, approached the head coach in the locker room.
"Frank, I'm going to play in the second half. The team needs another ball carrier!"
Frank looked at Kidd, pondered for a while, and shook his head firmly.
"Jason, it's not time yet. We can still handle it. You don't need to take risks!"
Kidd repeatedly persuaded and requested, but Frank rejected them sternly.
This made him very annoyed, and his discontented temper flared up:
"Handle it? Do you think I'm blind? Wait until the opponent scores It's too late to play again, I insist on playing!"
Kid was getting more and more excited and arguing with the head coach.
Roy had to come forward at this time.
"Jason, listen to me. It's just two quarters. We still have a chance. If the situation doesn't improve in the third quarter, I will ask the coach to let you play!"
It's said so much. Roy's weight in the team is too important.
Kid sighed and nodded slightly to show his agreement.
This calmed the locker room down.
Frank took out the tactical board again and wrote and drew on it.
After all the team members came back, he arranged the tactics again.
In fact, it was still the same old routine. The current team's lineup gave him too little room for adjustment.
He could only work on the details bit by bit. If he wanted to win, the whole team had to fight for their lives!
The coach had finished arranging the tactics, and the break time of the game was almost over.
The Nets walked out of the locker room one after another and stepped onto the court again.
Until Roy noticed Carter walking at the back,
he slowed down and turned to walk towards Carter, who looked tired.
You could see his nervousness and anxiety.
"Roy, do you think we can get through this level?"
Carter asked blankly, looking at the wall.
Roy glanced at Carter, patted his head, pointed to the light at the end of the player's tunnel and said:
"Do you see this tunnel? Just like where we are now, although it is the darkest time now, the dawn of victory is right in front of us, isn't it?"
Carter smiled slightly on his dull face and looked at the end of the tunnel with longing,
"Can we really do it?"
"Don't worry, I have confidence in you, but please have confidence in me too!"
It takes a certain time to feel the pressure of the finals.
This is also the charm of the game. The winner wins and the loser has nothing.
Even the experienced Spurs who have won the championship will still be infected by such an atmosphere.
Not to mention the Nets, a group of young people with empty hands.
And Carter is a typical representative of all the Nets.
From having nothing before coming to the Nets to now, the championship he has always dreamed of is within reach.
He is eager and expectant in his heart, and there is more fear and confusion.
On the court, the referee blew the whistle for the third quarter.
Both teams sent out all their main players.
In terms of mentality, the Spurs have a big advantage. Having won the championship, they are more open-minded and calm.
But this mentality also has disadvantages. After all, they have won all the championships they should have won, and their attractiveness will be reduced a lot.
On the other hand, the Nets have a more urgent desire for the championship, and they are naturally more active and active in action.
After the opening, the Spurs have the ball, and they started to dribble the ball.The full-force pressing,
It looked like they were going to eat the Spurs alive,
But this could not scare the champion team from San Antonio,
Ginobili, who was well prepared, dribbled with the help of screens and teammates,
Smoothly passed the half court in front of Jefferson's increasingly crazy defense,
The tactics formulated by Popovich at the beginning were very simple, with a high success rate,
The score was widened to double digits, and the opponent's confidence was destroyed with a steady stream of goals on the offensive end!
Veteran Horry pulled up to the three-point line to set a screen.
Ginobili dribbled the ball, and after the screen, he took a step into the Nets' three-point line.
McInnis, who switched defense, subconsciously thought that he was going to break through the basket again.
He took another step back from one step away from Ginobili,
trying to block his breakthrough path in advance.
The Argentine reacted very quickly.
He found the defensive loophole of McGinnis at a glance and stopped immediately.
Then he retreated a small half step and jumped up near the top of the arc to shoot.
The left-handed shooting posture is very strange, but his hit rate is not low,
Plus he is extremely confident and decisive,
"Shua"
McInnis failed to defend and watched the basketball shoot into the basket in front of his face,
55 to 65
Ginobili clenched his fists, turned around gracefully, glanced at Roy not far away,
Raised his eyebrows, the meaning of provocation is obvious,
Then he saw the Nets serving the ball, and found his defender in the first time, and also directed his teammates to return to defense.
"Chuck, what are you thinking, you bastard? Who do you think the opponent is? You left him 3 meters away. Do you think he is O'Neal?"
Frank was very angry about McGinnis's defensive prediction error.
Although Roy doesn't like opponents like Ginobili, he still admires this unwillingness to admit defeat.
Fire and competition have always been indispensable factors in the NBA.
What's more, now is the finals, everything will only become more arrogant.
Provocations in the finals are commonplace, and the Argentine is like a belligerent rooster.
I have already given my answer on the offensive end, and then I have to wait for Roy's feedback.
Roy doesn't want to say anything that takes a lot of effort.
The real test is what everyone wants to see. It's better to defeat him once than to say it a thousand times.
It seems that the pressure I put on him is too light, so he still has the energy to show his teeth to me!
