"And I hope the Spurs will focus on our role players in this game, because we can get more points."

Sun Hao then added another sentence.

As Jackson said, he and O'Neal are the basic sets of this Lakers.

It is expected that role players perform well in a game, but you can't expect them to perform well in every game.

After all, the salary gap between everyone is here. If every game is good, there will be no difference between maximum salary and basic salary.

O'Neal nodded in approval.

The 50+ score is the lower limit for both of their performances, but they can also hit their upper limit tonight.

That night, the attendance rate of ATT stadium was full.

Like the outside world, fans are also looking forward to the Spurs being able to win the game at home and then play a tiebreak with the Lakers.

As analyzed after Game 5, they had enough reason to believe the Spurs could do so.

The fans' expectations can be felt by the cheers of the pre-match opening ceremony.

That overwhelming momentum is hard to imagine that it is San Antonio, a well-known small ball market in the league.

Cheers reached a peak when Ginobili appeared.

All of this has a lot to do with the existence of Ginobili.

His scoring ability and his scoring method seem unique in this Spurs.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Spurs can play against the Suns and Lakers this season, basically because of Ginobili.

As Sun Hao, who has watched the finals in 2005, can't be more impressed by that.

You should know that the Pistons are known as one of the strongest defensive teams in history, but Ginobili can come and go freely in such a defense.

Jordan in 20 minutes sounds like a nickname that ordinary people can have.

Well, the opening ceremony also shows that Popovich made another adjustment and put Ginobili back to the starting lineup.

Everything is back to the beginning of the series?

Sun Hao doesn't think so.

And because of the many battles, he could even guess Popovich's current thinking.

The first few minutes of Ginobili starting the game, the Spurs and Lakers could balance the situation and even have an advantage, and then replace Ginobili in advance.

When the rotation at the end of the quarter was replaced, Ginobili was replaced to bring a substitute.

If you do this, it means that Ginobili will play the starting and substitute.

Of course, the disadvantages of doing this are also foreseeable. The minutes you play will be a challenge for the players.

You should know that players' states often require continuous play to play.

But Popovich doesn't have to worry too much about this. Ginobili is rarely the kind of person who can contribute by playing.

The game tonight will be very intense.

However, Sun Hao was even more excited.

His strength has reached this stage, and it seems boring to let him play the food abuse game.

Only by defeating stronger opponents will he feel accomplished.

So he hopes that the Spurs will show their strongest performance tonight.

The same thing, what is the strongest? The one who beats the strongest!

The final arrangement ended, and the starting players of both sides appeared one after another.

The Spurs did not make a starting adjustment, but on the Lakers, Jackson directly replaced Christie with Horry to play the starting lineup!

What you are playing is psychological game!

Nestrovic and O'Neal's jump ball.

The Slovenians fed the ball back to the Spurs' half, giving the home team the chance to take the lead in attacking.

Ginobili broke through Finley with the ball as soon as he came out.

Finley tried his best, but Ginobili made a false break and a true pass to Duncan who reached the free throw line. Duncan took the ball and made a real break and missed it to the basket.

"Bang!"

But just as he took action, a big hand sniffed his attack out of the field.

There was a turmoil at the scene.

Duncan is still at the peak, and there are still many people in this league that can risk him...!

When experts in the future do technical statistics and count the players who have been blocked the most in the league, Duncan "beaten the King" with 1,489 honors.

You may not believe this, but as the background emperor in the NBA super giant, I was expected.

Of course this is off topic. What you can see this time offense and defense is that both teams are in very hot form.

Ginobili's sudden score is beautiful, Duncan's cutting is also beautiful, and O'Neal's block is even more beautiful.

Even if you don’t score goals in this game, it’s still very interesting.

The sideline ball was sent out, and Ginobili took the initiative to attack this time, twisting his body and hit the ball with a European step to hit the ball!

The demon sword still emits a ghostly green light!

The Spurs are the first!

Looking back, Sun Hao held the ball from the outside, and the Spurs did not double-team him as soon as possible.

And a very noteworthy detail is also the same as Sun Hao and O'Neal predicted before the game, there are always people in Horry who are specifically guarding.

Although I thought that Horry would not be able to play like this again in Game 5, no one would really say that he would give him another shot!

Popovich dared not bet that Horry had no bullets in his gun.

If so, the Spurs have to explain directly.

After all, this is G6, and the Spurs are still behind, so he can't afford to bet!

But in this case, Sun Hao and O'Neal's offensive space suddenly increased.

In a sense, the impact of Horry's performance in the last game was not just the previous game!

Sun Hao, after greeting Ma Long with a pick-and-roll, made a signature step-and-step three-pointer!

The ball flew and drifted a curve in the air... and then entered the net with hollowness!

After confirming the look, they were familiar with three points!

3 to 2.

The Spurs fans at the scene said they were a little familiar with this scene.

In the third game of the series, the confrontation between "Demon Sword" and "Ri Tian" is still fresh in memory.

Ginobili broke the score with Bowen, and the latter's three-pointer broke the box.

Looking back, Sun Hao continued to choose the three-pointer after the pick-and-roll.

Duncan's ball shop was very timely, but Sun Hao still chose to take a three-pointer.

Duncan interfered, and Sun Hao's three-pointer hit the back edge of the basket and smashed out of the frame.

but!

O'Neal suppressed Nestrovic in the inside, grabbed the offensive rebound, and then the Sharks went out to sea and brutally abused the basket with both hands!

This dunk shocked the fans on the scene.

O'Neal's previous fight was a bit healthy, and the sudden rise can be said to be a bit "unexpected".

But, this is the big shark!

Popovich frowned while touching his chin.

What he saw was not O'Neal's dunk, but Sun Hao's choice.

Sun Hao and Kobe have completely different styles of playing, and they rarely have a bad start.

But just now, Sun Hao chose to take a three-pointer when Duncan made up for defense.

This doesn't look normal.

Is it Sun Hao who is very confident in his touch? Not necessarily!

Under normal circumstances, Sun Hao would choose to play like this, but when he realized that he felt good, he could shoot from the three-point line to the logo.

But now the competition has just begun!

So like Sun Hao, as an old opponent, Popovich also guessed why Sun Hao did that.

This is obviously to expand the Spurs' defense line outward!

Horry's performance on the field made it difficult for the Spurs not to focus on taking care of them, which means that O'Neal already has some room under the basket.
To be continued...
