The finals opener.

"Xuewei, why are your position getting higher and higher? Aren't you afraid that he will treat you as a meat cushion?"

Shirley always likes to tease Xuewei with this matter. When she heard her sister's words, Xuewei felt like she was hit by a "meteorite" again.

What's amazing is that when she and Xie Hou established a relationship, Xie Hou no longer treated her as a meat pad.

So she and the people around her had legitimate reasons to suspect that Xie Hou had bad intentions and deliberately used this method to attract the attention of others.

Having said that, what kind of weirdo would take this method to attract other people's attention? Is this the way for normal people to catch up?

Xuewei once held Xie Hou's lifeline and forced him to tell the truth.

Xie Houzhe used his half-life happiness to ensure that he used Xuewei as a meat pad was really an accident.

"I found that the Pacers' competition venue is much worse than ours," said Shirley's boyfriend, Cable Napoli, with pride.

The Colts look better than the Pacers, but they don't have a championship.

Manning has the potential to be more popular with Indiana than Sherlock: a white person, an NFL quarterback star. Unfortunately, his span in big scenes is comparable to the edg in the S game, and Xie Hou's ruthlessness, which is more courageous as he goes down, is even more appreciated.

"If there is no championship, no matter how good the competition hall is, it will be useless." Xuewei didn't like Napole.

She and her father rarely reached a consensus on this.

Napoly noticed that Xuewei didn't like his statement, so he consciously shut up and said yes. Next, both sides of the game will appear.

Pacers and Spurs, East and West Champions.

Leonard and McGuinness sat in a familiar position for Pacers fans. For this game tonight, they both have their own views. *******Nard thinks the Spurs are the team that is most likely to pose a threat to the Pacers. Why? They have Duncan and Bowen.

If you want to find the best combination of restricting Xiehou, these two people are the answer.

This season, Marcus Camby was elected DPOY amid doubts. Camby may be the first DPOY in history to have a better team defense when he is not on the court.

The second votes for DPOY were Bowen and Duncan.

That's right, judging from the voting results, Bowen is recognized as the strongest outside defender this season, while Duncan is recognized as the second inside defender.

McGuinness believes in Xiehou, and not without reason.

"Although the Spurs have never played against the Pacers in the Finals, they have played 8 times in the regular season in the past four years, with a total of 4 wins and 4 losses. It can only be said that they are close to the Pacers, but I believe Arthur."

If the Spurs play badly and give McGuinness a sarcastic opportunity, he will also whisper to him.

Before the opening, GDP went to the midfield LOGO and met with Xie Hou, O'Neal Jr. and Artest.

The two sides have no friendship, and they may have some grudges over the title.

"Arthur, we are not calves." Ginobili showed their attitude first, "I'll have some good fruits to eat later."

Ginobili's approach seems too radical to Duncan. Is it necessary to force people to get up and get up?

He didn't make a sound to smooth things over. Since he had said everything, let's make the atmosphere a little stiffer.

He reached out and touched Ginobili's head, expressing his agreement.

"Then let's see the truth on the field!" O'Neal replied for Xie Hou.

There will be no communication between the two sides since then.

After DJ introduced the players from both sides, the fans stood up happily and cheered, and then started the game.

Pacers fans were disappointed to find Kirilianko still sitting on the sidelines in a suit watching the show, while the Spurs were an international team.

The five starters are only Bowen is an authentic American.

The main controller Parker is from France. The Lithuanian strongman Kreza obtained on the trade deadline is a forward. The center is actually doing the power forward work. As well as Duncan from the US Virgin Islands.

During the jump ball stage, Duncan easily wins.

Parker came up to use his breakthrough ability and was blocked by Xie Hou, who was detoured to defend.

Popovich screamed and roared at Parker, as if he was the head teacher of the bad student who had been in trouble all day.

Xie Hou dribbles and pushes counterattacks, Bao Wen has a solid footsteps. He is 36 years old in a few months and is still considered by the judges to be the best outside defender in the NBA.

Does anyone really think that the reason why he is famous is because of his dirty hands and feet? If you really think so, it would be too superficial.

The Spurs had a bloody battle with the Pacers during the regular season. That game was injured by Bowen. Now he has fought again, and his movements have become much more regular.

Xie Hou didn't think he had learned his lesson and did not do too much illegal defense, but the Spurs didn't need him to exert force.

Xie Hou passed the ball with Artest, and the beast made a mid-range shot, but he also failed to make the ball.

If it is etiquette to play one iron at the beginning, then Duncan oppressed O'Neal Jr. and wanted to attack the ball with a strong ball, it would undoubtedly be to unilaterally announce the end of the friendly time, and from now on, he would fight like a man.

Duncan, who is about to be 31, is still the core figure of the Spurs, and his role in both offense and defense cannot be ignored.

He took a strong attack in front of the basket, and O'Neal Jr. aimed at his ball holder and destroyed it.

Duncan dropped the ball, lowered his waist and picked up the ball for the second attack.

The difficulty is still very high. Duncan's position does not have enough space for him to do those beautiful offensive steps. He can only be trapped in a small space and relies on his touch to shoot.

If a player like Duncan has any weakness, it is that compared to players of his level (the first eight levels of history), his offensive feel is not gentle enough.

His strong attack at the basket was missed. After this hand-to-hand combat, the Pacers grabbed the rebound and directly counterattacked.

Xie Hou's counterattack would only be more threatening than Parker. He rushed to the frontcourt quickly, and Europe took a layup to score the first point of the night.

2 to 0

"If the Pacers can hit more counterattacks, I believe the Spurs are not their opponent."

After the commentator's voice fell, the Spurs set up positions in the frontcourt again, and Duncan continued to take the position.

The Spurs were not trying to test his feel, but just seeing him want the ball. As the offensive commander, Parker, as one of the cores of the tactics, suppressed the fighting spirit in his heart and passed the ball, which was the highest respect to the leader.

Popovich has a famous remark - "I will retire 10 minutes after Duncan retires" - hinting at the Spurs' past and future path. With Duncan as the core, he seeks a team that relies on tough defense and skillful tactical cooperation.

Since winning Duncan in 1997, the Spurs have never introduced a big-name star. In the 2005 Finals, no one in the Spurs team ranked in the top 15 in the draft except for the former No. 1 pick Duncan. The management of Popovich and the Spurs were like looking for parts for a huge machine: they demanded the single function and compatibility of parts. The players they purchased were never excellent in their personal abilities, but their specialties and personalities must fit the Spurs system with Duncan as the core.

This is the root cause of the Spurs' strength for ten years: for ten years, as long as Duncan is there, the Spurs will run smoothly like a machine. Popovich trusts the strength of the team, trusts defense as the basis, trusts the stadium consciousness brought by experience, and the excellent consciousness that drives the game.

It has been 10 years since Duncan took over the Spurs, and the team's structure, offensive and defensive system, and even his own role have undergone drastic changes.

However, no matter who the Spurs' offensive starting point is, and who is Duncan's inside partner is replaced, as long as he is in one day, he will be the Spurs' most reliable weapon.

This is true on both sides of the offense and defense.

The first attack was unsuccessful, and the second attack continued.

The Spurs are not lacking in patience.

The Spurs pulled open to Duncan at the low post on the right, outside the paint area.

"Aren't you tired of fighting?" Xie Hou said to Cleza.

"Get tired?" Creza seemed to hear Xie Hou telling a joke.

That's Duncan! Will you get tired of fighting him? I'm not kidding, if he can hold on with his physical strength, or if he is a real iron man, Kreza believes that Popovich will let him take charge of the whole game.

Duncan's back-beating skills are so good. Whether it's back-beating in the highlights or watching him back-beating on the spot, his movements are exactly the same. What is basic skills? Xie Hou believes that not only can he have sufficient stability at high intensity, but also that no matter how many times he uses it, it is the same as the first time.

The standard must have a fixed pattern in your heart, which is the real basic skill.

Duncan was exactly this. He dribbled the ball with his right hand and suddenly turned around, like a whirlpool in the middle of the sea, spinning towards the bottom line. That was Duncan's killer move.

Turning around and killing the basket, O'Neal Jr. may have expected his move, but he was not prepared.

When Duncan turned around and rushed into the basket, he cut the ball with his hands. As soon as he cut it out, something was wrong.

He hit Duncan's hand and the ball. At the cost of a foul, Duncan failed to put the ball into the basket, but Duncan got two free throws.

Judging from the results, O'Neal's foul was worth it.

Only one of the two free throws was hit.

1 to 2

"Jermaine needs to pay attention. He fouled less than a minute into the game. He should cherish his foul numbers more."

"Yes, Andre can't beat him, he won't do without him."

If possible, Claire would sew the mouths of the two elders on the commentary table.

Isn’t this explanation just reminding the Spurs to strengthen their offense at the basket? They can’t afford to lose O’Neal Jr. now.

Claire's concerns are obviously redundant. With the intelligence of the Spurs coaching staff, he does not need a commentator to know that he should strengthen the block and impact the penalty area.

But the Spurs are about to worry about their own problems.

Xie Hou asked Bowen to pass the pick-and-roll, face Duncan, deliberately slowed down, and fought fiercely before taking action. He heard a clear whistle, and in this case, Duncan could only make a foul.

He is different from Duncan in the last round.

He was ready to commit a foul, so Duncan's foul action did not destroy his attack. On the contrary, Duncan was accidentally fouled, and the foul action was not strong enough, so Xie Hou could complete the attack.
Chapter completed!
