Chapter 690 [Thick-skinned and invincible, my pot is 101 points]

Basketball games are not like football games, with many pauses, and the coaches of both sides have to constantly fight wits and courage.

D'Antoni performed very well today, and he and Vicky were targeted and adjusted his tactics in a timely manner.

In the last quarter, Vic did not let Duncan rest, and sent Parker, Ginobili, Finley and Barry to play small ball tactics, wanting to chase points. This is the Spurs' strongest attack lineup, and they will play like this for a while in every game.

D'Antoni arranged small ball tactics, center Haslem, forward Ariza, Howard, defender Bale, all except Guo Xu were swinging people. The Suns' defensive tactics were people-to-man. Except for Guo Xu, others quickly changed defense when they encountered cover.

Six minutes later, the score difference widened to 26 points, and the Spurs were out of sight.

**Vicci was depressed to find that the Suns used the defensive methods that the Spurs were used to deal with the Spurs, and they were mainly single-defense, forcing them to fight one-on-one. The Spurs' outside players were in poor condition today, and they passed back and forth several times, and Duncan was the most efficient in playing.

How could the Spurs compare to the Suns? The Suns played in the regular season...

Veteran Payton only appeared at the last moment, David Lee also got training time, the Suns controlled the rhythm and grinded their positions, maintaining the advantage until the end. 107 to 87, the Suns won 20 points and achieved a good start at home.

In the second half, **Vic replaced all the main players and roared a few times on the sidelines. The Spurs played very poorly today. He thought it was not because of tactics, but because of the players' mentality.

Guo Xu played for 42 minutes, made 12 of 20 shots, 6 of 11 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, scored 35 points, 3 rebounds, 12 assists and 2 steals.

Duncan played for 37 minutes, made 12 of 24 shots, 7 of 12 free throws, scoring 31 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks.

The two scored similarly, but Guo Xu's ability to lead the team was better. He had strong breakthrough ability and made many passes to create opportunities for his teammates. His personal singles were mainly mid- and long-distance shooting, but his shooting percentage was higher than that of Duncan.

Five players in the Suns scored in double digits, Howard was the second scoring point, making 8 of 16 shots, 7 of 8 free throws, scoring 23 points and 9 rebounds, without assists.

The Spurs only had three players scoring double-digit points, Parker made 7 of 18 shots, 5 of 6 free throws, scored 19 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, and his shooting percentage was 38.9%.

Ginobili made 5 of 14 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, scored 15 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists and 4 steals, with a shooting percentage of 35.7%.

Online fans were surprised to see the data, because the Suns, which are famous for their offense, look better in this game than the Spurs. Parker, who hits more than 50% in the regular season, was almost crying by Guo Xu's defense. The scores were all based on cover to get rid of Guo Xu's attack.

He was not efficient when he got rid of Guo Xu. The Suns Power Forward is three 203cm players, and his speed is actually just a swingman. David Lee, Kukochi, and Valaijo didn't play for long in this game.

Fans commented online that most of them were on the side of the Suns, and many people felt that they had made steady progress after watching the game.

"Jason defended the black hole and killed Parker, who had the highest shooting percentage in the regular season. How could the Spurs win? If he doesn't be lazy in the regular season, he should be in the best defensive team."

"I suspect Jason is unwilling to be in the defensive lineup at all. He may be unhappy if he is selected. He seems to be too hard. He just needs to play hard in the playoffs. Like O'Neal back then, these two people are really a feather flock."

"If you don't hurt Jason Guo, the Spurs really can't win the Suns. If you can win two games in the regular season, it's not good enough for Jason and the rest of their teammates to get high scores, and you want to get high scores."

"If Bowen doesn't do anything bad, his defensive ability will be average. I really can't tell where he is strong. Howard also scored a lot of points. He is strong in small moves. The opponent is afraid of being injured and his performance will be affected. He wanted to harm McGrady in the last round but failed. He was also chasing the footsteps at 35 seconds and 13 seconds."

Guo Xu's few words pushed the Spurs to the opposite side of the fans, and he kept questioning it. It was not that Guo Xu's eloquence was good, but that flies did not bite seamless eggs. Bowen did too many such unethical things, and the fans' resentment of the stars he had injured was concentrated.

Especially Vince Carter once had a large number of supporters, and many people felt that his condition was not as good as before, which was directly related to Bowen's footrest. The third footrest was unbearable. Carter wanted to beat Bowen and was grabbed. Bowen pretended to be innocent with the referee, and finally the referee sent Carter out of the field.

In today's game, the Spurs were really clean on the defensive end, so clean that **Vic was angry on the sidelines.

At the press conference, **Vicci said: "The players' mentality was affected by Jason Guo's pre-match slander. This is the Western Conference Finals. The players' fierce physical confrontation is inevitable. Today, we play lack blood. The players are afraid of being questioned by fans. In fact, the Suns' game is much dirty than us. Haslem and Valaijo have always had small moves."

The reporter asked **Vic to comment on Guo Xu, saying: "He has strong personal abilities and high basketball quotient, but I don't like him, and I have never liked him. He is actually a sinister villain. He deliberately used public opinion to influence our performance before the game. He is as cunning as a fox. He should face the head-on battle like a soldier, rather than using conspiracy."

This statement was really unconvincing when Mr. **Vic said it from the mouth of Mr. **. In Guo Xu's previous life, many of the NBA's external moves occurred at the Spurs' home court.

Jason Terry said he found thousands of flies in the Spurs' away closet, which made him very disgusting.

Flies and bats are not the most famous animal at home. In the second game between the Trail Blazers vs. the Spurs in the 2014 playoffs, the Trail Blazers players were scared and there was a Rattlesnake in the locker room.

In the 2014 finals, the air conditioner at the Spurs' home court broke down, the stadium temperature reached 32.2 degrees, which made the "Heat" so hot.

A series of things happened made Terry feel a little depressed: "You must be mentally prepared to play in San Antonio. Are the Spurs' things intentionally or by chance? No one knows."

No matter how **Vic complained, the Suns won a game without any blood because the Spurs players were not fierce enough.

When it was the Suns' turn to be interviewed, a reporter revealed **Vicci's words to Guo Xu and asked him to share his thoughts.

Guo Xu smiled and said, "Thanks to coach **Vicci for advertising my brand. Fat Fox is not only cunning, but also makes pizza very delicious. Everyone is welcome to taste it."

A burst of laughter came from the venue. The thick-skinned man was invincible. Guo Xu directly regarded **Vicci's words as praise, and even advertised his own restaurant. Who can cure such a person?

The reporter asked: "Your scoring data has dropped compared to the regular season and your shots have also decreased. How did you think of this adjustment?"

"I will do whatever I play and lead the team to win. When my teammates really can't shoot, I will go on. I will reduce the shots because I no longer need to prove myself in terms of scoring. I will score 101 points."

The reporter asked: "The Suns are in a favorable position. Are you confident of eliminating the Spurs into the finals?"

"Of course, because I scored 101 points."

The funny thing is that D'Antoni was interviewed. He expressed his confidence in eliminating the Spurs into the finals, but the reason was that Guomi's slogan "I have 101 points."

Guo Xu repeatedly emphasized that 101 points is not just a meme, but a direct defensive system to deter the Spurs.
