Although Gasol's defense is good, he still feels a little unsure when facing someone of Duncan's level.

Although in the game against the Heat, Gasso restricted No. 1 center Shaq one-on-one.

But when one-on-one faces the No. 1 forward... it may not be that simple.

Wayne double-teamed him without hesitation. In the game between the Spurs and the Trail Blazers, there was no such thing as a casual fight. Every round was a struggle.

Although it is only the regular season, he will never slack off when it comes to double-teaming.

As a result, Dengdai passed the ball to Oberto very skillfully.

The long-haired Argentinian made a steady mid-range shot, and the Spurs continued to lead.

Today, Popovich also wants to give Wayne a taste of what it means to defend someone who is neither inside nor outside.

The Spurs' arrangement today was very targeted and they really treated this game like a playoff game.

While playing, Popovich was also yelling at him off the court.

"Is this the All-Star starting forward? That's it? Is this the fan's favorite player?"

That crazy Popovich has been bullied by Wayne for so many years. Today is the beginning of a turning point!

If the Spurs win today's game, then the next day, the headlines on the Internet in mainland China will definitely be: "Shocking! The secret to containing Wayne is..."

These opening rounds are basically a microcosm of the Spurs' strategic thinking today.

They played very targeted on both offense and defense, even better than the Mavericks yesterday.

Yesterday's Mavericks, to be honest, the tactical aspect was secondary, the main thing was that the Mavericks really shot.

For a team that advocates using one-on-ones and shooting to end the game, once the shot is fired, the firepower is unimaginable.

Today, the Spurs relied on off-ball screens and movement to create opportunities.

The defensive end mainly focuses on containing the opponent's stars and betting on the ball-playing ability of role players.

At least in the first quarter, the Spurs were successful in doing so. They firmly took the initiative in the first quarter.

At the end of the first quarter, the score was 24-20, with the Trail Blazers trailing by 4 points.

Wayne had 4 points and 4 assists, all in support.

Although he sent four assists in a single quarter, he showed Wayne's excellent support ability.

But the Spurs are still leading, which proves that their strategy is successful.

After all, there is no reason to rely on role players to end the game.

Oh, it seems that Wayne got to the top through this...

However, neither Parker nor Udoka nor Posey seem to be the ones who can end the game.

Wayne looked at the triumphant Popovich and secretly clenched his fists.

In the next three quarters...it seems like we need to play more uniquely.

Otherwise, when the time comes, he will have to bear the reputation of "Wayne only knows how to pass the blame".

McMillan was also very angry. What the hell, is he a man or a ghost who wants to show off from beyond the three-point line?

It’s so deceiving!

Damn it, I will fight with you today!

I'm moving out of my Italian...Chinese cannons!

Just fight with a bayonet and see blood!

So, during the break between sessions, McMillan moved his small bench and sat down in front of Wayne very angrily.

"Wei, in the next three quarters, I will arrange for you to beat the opponent hard from outside the three-point line. Bump me, hit me hard!"

After speaking, McMillan began to lay out his tactics.

The content of the tactics is very simple. Wayne no longer holds the ball to attack, but uses the space created by others to run without the ball and catch and shoot from outside the three-point line.

McMillan must admit that he was gambling.

Because under normal circumstances, Wayne needs to attack with the ball to pose the greatest threat. It is undoubtedly a waste of resources to only use him as a fort without the ball.

But today, since you old thief Vicky wants to show off your three points with me, then blame me for going to extremes.

Everyone helped Wayne pull the defense to the other side, but McMillan wanted to see how the Spurs would double-team.

Of course, the key point of this tactic is that Wayne's three-pointer must be accurate, otherwise it will be in vain.

To be honest, this is purely nonsense. Wayne's highest attribute now is three-pointers. Moreover, there are many shooting-related badges, so it is not a problem to continue the firepower into the fourth quarter.

When Wayne heard this tactic, he almost cried out.

Listening to what you mean, I’m going to grind a lot today until it’s full!

In other words, if you can earn a few more points today and use up the remaining opportunities to add points, you should be fine.

this......

"Don't worry, I will definitely hit them hard!"

Wayne patted his chest, please give me more of these tactics in the future!

After the interval, Popovich was still beating the players crazy, hoping to regain his glory in the ATT Center and become a man again.

On the other side, Wei Ge is ready to work hard... to help the team regain its advantage.
Chapter completed!
