Chapter 78
The Trail Blazers and the Spurs fought four games, either winning by close to [-] points or losing by close to [-] points. None of the games reached the final anxious moment. Either the Spurs were defeated in three quarters, or they were defeated by the Spurs.

Su Yang pulled through the replay of four games, and found out whether he could play a wave of offense became the key to victory.

The strength of the two teams is very close, but if there is a wave, if the first half is full of energy and time, they can still find a way to catch up. If the energy is lacking in the second half, there is not enough time, and there is basically no chance of reversal. It is the same in all four games.

Grasp the details, maintain stability, and become the key to Tianwangshan, and even the sixth or seventh game.

After studying the video, Su Yang continued to sleep, received a call from Outlaw in the afternoon, and ran to the dinner party.

McMillan and other coaches also came to participate, as well as the management department headed by general manager Kevin, as well as the team of scouts and trainers. The team wanted to fully unite before the crucial Tianwangshan battle and win the game steadily point.

In the middle of the party, the famous Blazers Bill Walton suddenly appeared, passionately introduced the deeds of the Blazers winning the playoffs for the first time, encouraged the players to maintain self-confidence, and praised Adelaide for his tough defense.

After a speech, the Blazers players were so motivated that they wanted to take off their clothes and start fighting immediately.

The next morning, the Blazers resumed training. Su Yang emphasized the need to pay attention to details and maintain stability.

During the tactical running training, he deliberately arranged a few more tactics around Adelaide to express his trust invisibly. He mentioned a little bit that he needed to pay attention to not making consecutive fouls. He did not forcefully pretend that nothing happened, and gave Adelaide the most authentic feedback.

At [-]:[-] p.m., the battle between the Blazers and the Spurs officially started, and the mayor of Portland came to help.

The Spurs changed again, allowing Michael Finley to return to the starting lineup, while Ginobili came off the bench.

In the first round, the Spurs Thomas played a screen with Parker, took advantage of Alder's step delay, quickly cut to the basket, received a pass from Parker, and wanted to stage a two-handed dunk, but was blocked by Frye. Big hat, the cover fell to the ground.

But Duncan followed up and grabbed an offensive rebound, defended through Frye, and tried to hit the rebound and put the basket.

Just when the basketball was about to fall, Ade, who returned to defense, jumped up and once again staged a nail-biting cap.

The cheers in the arena exploded one after another, but Thomas grabbed another offensive rebound, and Roy fouled afterward.

The Spurs got the ball for the second attack, but they still missed. Instead, they defended against the Blazers. Duncan and Bowen were fouled, and Popovich yelled at the referee, but embarrassingly, Webster made two free throws. strike iron.

The defensive strength of the two teams was full at the beginning, and it was not until 8 minutes and 50 seconds that Adelaide broke the 0-0 situation.

In the next few minutes, Adelaide felt explosive, making 9 of 7 shots in a single quarter, 0 free throws, and a net score of 14.

It's a pity that the Blazers were double-teamed by Duncan, and the Spurs made 3 three-pointers. They fell behind 22-23 in the first quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, Duncan, who took a 2-minute break, made his debut early and teamed up with Finley to score 5-0.

Su Yang was forced to accept the move and arranged for Ade to play in advance, but he failed to narrow the point difference for several minutes.After waiting until Roy came on the field and the game was nearing the end of halftime, he took advantage of Thomas' foul and Duncan to hit the iron, making it difficult to catch up to 44 to 47.

During the half-time break, Su Yang once again emphasized the need to pay attention to details and maintain stability.

After the start of the third quarter, Adelaide received a pass from Roy to score a dunk in the first attack, turned around and caused Oberto to foul, then made two free throws, and then defended Duncan from the front, leading the team to a wave of 13 Score climax than 4.

At the critical moment, Horry and Bowen were suspected of malicious fouls one after another. Although they were blown, they wasted a lot of time.

But in the next few minutes, Parker frantically tried to steal. As a result, he was called 4 fouls in a single quarter, shot 6 of 2, and made 1 turnover.

Seeing the Spurs team collapse in the third quarter, Su Yang thought that this was too much like a script.

The Blazers entered the fourth quarter with a 15-point advantage, played steadily, and finally won 103 to 81.

全场比赛,阿德25投16中,加上7罚6中,狂砍38分14篮板。

Adelaide's outstanding performance won many praises from the media, and fans also praised him for playing like a tough guy.

When Ade left the field, he ignored the reporter who wanted to interview, walked straight to Su Yang, and raised his hand excitedly.

Su Yang responded with a smile, raised his hand to give him a high-five, patted his shoulder to encourage him to do a good job, and continue next time.

In such a scene, the fans and photographers on the scene quickly grasped and panicked, and the sound of clicking sound resounded throughout the arena.

The Blazers finished their celebration, finished the press conference and other things, and flew to San Antonio overnight.

The next afternoon, during the team's daily training, many media applied for interviews.PR only approved two, one is ESPN, which broadcasts G6 live, and the other is CCTV5, and CCTV5 made a special trip to interview Su Yang, asking about his plans for next season.

Su Yang changed the subject, saying that he only focused on the playoffs for the time being, and would only consider other things during the off-season.

After the reporter left, Su Yang emphasized for the nth time that he needed to pay attention to details and maintain stability.

On the night of NO.15, Game [-] of the Western Conference Semifinals between the Trail Blazers and the Spurs kicked off.

Popovich changed again, let Ginobili and Oberto start at the same time, let Duncan serve as power forward.

That arrangement was obviously intended to limit Adelaide, but in the first round of the game, Adelaide succeeded in a long shot with a straight arm.

Turning around, Duncan made an air cut after the pick-and-roll, received a pass from Parker, and responded with a rare split dunk.

The two teams came and went, and with more than five minutes left in the first quarter, the battle was tied at 15-15.

With an idea, Su Yang arranged for Pulzbila to play, replaced Blake, and played five two-meter lineups.

As a result, such a rotation had a miraculous effect. Pulzbila not only restrained Duncan, but also teamed up with Alder and Frye to block Parker for several breakthrough layups. As another Spurs guard, Ginobili only made one of four shots. hit.

In that way, the Blazers led the Spurs 36 to 24 in the first quarter, laying a solid foundation for victory.

The second quarter of the game started with a substitute confrontation. Su Yang made a temporary change again and asked Outlaw to play the center forward. than 7.

Seeing that Popovich couldn't bear to adjust the lineup, Su Yang then changed the lineup back to the regular configuration.

After some showy manipulation, the five-point advantage was maintained until the end of the half game, and the Blazers led by 17 points.

Returning to the locker room at halftime, Outlaw and others were so excited that they shook their legs. Su Yang emphasized for the N+1 time that stability is needed, but don’t be too stable. There is a situation where you dare not pass the ball to create opportunities because you are afraid of making mistakes. , Be steady and ruthless.

The Blazers nodded one after another, then returned to the court with mixed emotions and continued to play in the third quarter.

Only 2 minutes into the game, Bowen deliberately mocked and provoked Roy, but Roy ignored it.

But as the game progressed, Bo Wen and others moved more and more, but the referee turned a blind eye.

Su Yang occasionally yelled a few words to put pressure on the referee. Fortunately, the Blazers were not affected and extended their lead.

The game reached the end of the third quarter in a blink of an eye, and Adelaide used the cover to make an air cut and made a three-step layup with a lob pass.

Unexpectedly, Huo Li threw an elbow in the middle, knocking Ade over and falling to the ground.

Roy rushed up and couldn't hold back his curses. Bowen took the opportunity to provoke and push Roy.

The incident happened suddenly, many people were in a state of bewilderment, and the Blazers bench was speechless.

But Su Yang recalled the promise he made before, stood up awkwardly, and strode towards Huo Li and Bo Wen.

At that moment, he felt possessed by Stan Albeck, Doug Collins and Chuck Daly.

He wants to inherit the tradition of great coaches fighting for players, and he is not afraid of two strong men with a height of more than two meters.
