The fourth quarter kicked off, and just when the Suns thought this quarter would be a formality, Ginobili's magic knife was unsheathed, flashing a coquettish and dazzling light.
In order to chase points, the Spurs replaced the twin-tower lineup and also replaced the small lineup. It seems that they are determined to compete with the Suns for offensive firepower.
Yourid dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, faced Barbosa's defense, made a clear snap, and passed a ground hit. The basketball bounced off the floor and flew to the outside line on the right.
Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right, Ginobili caught the ball face-up, glanced at Joe Johnson's defense, and pulled the ball directly to a three-pointer with a fadeaway jumper.
Ginobili played very resolutely, shot with speed, and the rhythm belt flew up. When Joe Johnson reached out to block, it was already too late.
Swish! !
There was a cold sound of wiping the net, Ginobili raised the knife and dropped the knife, and accurately blasted the basketball into the basket. He succeeded in a three-pointer and played the first day of counterattack.
Ginobili is the most powerful attacker of the Spurs, and his key abilities have also been polished very well. After all, he wants to lead the golden generation of Argentina to go further in the world arena. Such an achievement.
When a team's offensive firepower is controlled by him, his offensive firepower will become terrifying, and the demeanor of a superstar will be brought into full play.
Originally, Bo Povich planned to seal his superstar ability, but in a game that was already doomed to lose, he obviously didn't care too much, why not let Ginobili play happily and not put it away Play hard.
And this ball is just the beginning!
Afterwards, Yourid dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and still chose to distribute the basketball to Ginobili.
With the precise hit of a three-pointer in the previous game, Ginobili looked confident and played very smartly. He directly lifted the ball over the top and made a three-point shot.
Joe Johnson knew that the Suns had a big lead, and the Spurs would be eager to bet on three-pointers to chase points. Naturally, he didn't want Ginobili to hit three-pointers in a row, with momentum, and rushed forward.
Ginobili didn't hit indiscriminately. He seemed to grasp Joe Johnson's heart. After a feint, he immediately pulled the ball down, exerted strength in his feet, and made a three-step layup in a serpentine step. He passed Hunter and made it easy to get to the basket Dunk in the basketball and score another two points.
Ginobili has a strong playing style, with the cunning of a South American player. He did not blindly insist on three-pointers, but tried every means to keep the Spurs' offensive firepower, whether it was two points or three points.
The most important thing at this time is to continue to press the Suns offensively, and the continuation of offensive firepower is extremely important.
Immediately afterwards, it was still Ginobili's offense with the ball. At this time, Ginobili was not anxious, and still assumed an offensive three-threat posture.
After being beaten by Ginobili in a row, Joe Johnson felt a little confused, and his defensive actions became a little muddy and doubtful.
Joe Johnson's hesitation fell into Ginobili's eyes, and naturally he would not let go of this good opportunity to beat the dog in the water.
This time, Ginobili didn't make any extra fake moves at all, he directly pulled the ball up, and opened his hand to make another dry pull-up three-pointer with a fadeaway jumper.
After all, Joe Johnson is a super star. He can become the leader of a team in the future. His strength is not a display. His individual singles are very strong, but his defense is not necessarily bad. At least his physical talent is very good.
The footsteps were very fast, and he quickly jumped in front of Ginobili, stretched out his right hand, and greeted Ginobili's face overwhelmingly!
It is not enough to block the opponent, but it is enough to cause interference.
Ginobili's body was very elegant in the air, and his body fell backwards. Although he couldn't see the basket, his shooting rhythm was not disrupted. With a flick of his right hand, the basketball flew away.
A full moon-like arc was drawn in the air.
Swish! !
The white nets were overflowing, and Ginobili made every move without missing a three-pointer.
Steadily hit another wonderful three-pointer.
Joe Johnson was directly beaten without the slightest temper, which became an opportunity for Ginobili to score points.
Then, Yurid dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Ginobili with confidence.
Joe Johnson was beaten in a row, and he didn't dare to give Ginobili any more space to attack, so he directly defended Ginobili.
Ginobili moved laterally to get rid of it, and immediately changed direction and broke through to the three-point line.
One step past one person, after passing the entire defense line of the Suns, Ginobili didn't make a shot under the basket.
When Barry got the ball, he bent his knees and jumped up without any hesitation, making a three-point jump shot.
Swish! !
The three-pointer hit the net and went through the heart.
In less than 4 minutes of the fourth quarter, the Spurs played a wave of 11 to 4 attacks, bringing the gap between the two sides back to only ten.
D'Antoni directly called a timeout, trying to interrupt the Spurs' offensive rhythm. To be on the safe side, he even replaced all the starting five tigers.
Nash returned to the court, immediately broke through with the ball in the middle, played a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire, broke through to the free throw line, opened his hand to shoot a horseback archery, and accurately sent the basketball into the basket with a small throw. Two points were recorded, which stabilized the situation on the court.
However, Ginobili's offense did not stop. He used the serpentine step to break through for a layup, attracting the Suns' defense, and once again assisted Barry to catch the ball and shoot a three-pointer, hitting frequently and piercing Yang.
He made 4 of 4 shots in a single quarter, 2 of 2 three-pointers, scored 10 points and 1 assist, perfectly played the role of a backup shooter, and answered the perfect shooting results when the Spurs needed it.
Of course, Ginobili's strong assist ability has to be mentioned. His sharp breakthrough can instantly tear apart the Suns' defense, or divide or shoot. For him, scoring is like chopping melons and vegetables.
Ginobili's demon sword shines, 7 of 5 shots in a single quarter, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, 17 points, 4 assists and 2 basketballs in a single quarter, playing a super god state, god blocking and killing gods, Buddha blocking Kill Buddha and lead the Spurs to a wave of 35-18 offense.
With 1 minute left in the fourth quarter, the scores of the two sides were brought back to the same starting line by 114 to 114.
Theoretically, the two sides still have two chances to attack each other. Is it Ginobili who will force the tide and stage a soul-stirring reversal?Or did the Suns have the last laugh and regain the top spot in the regular season?
At the end of the game, it was still full of suspense.
In the last minute of the fourth quarter, the Suns attacked, Nash dribbled the ball in the frontcourt, and played a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire in the diamond tactics.
Nash was dribbled by Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili. Nash dribbled a step back, pulled the ball up, and passed the ball to the right to Joe Johnson.
Ginobili turned back to chase, and Joe Johnson dribbled the ball to the basket to break through, attracting Duncan's defense, and then sent the basketball into the sky.
Stoudemire made an air cut to the basket, jumped up, and with a loud bang, alley-oop, dunked the basketball into the basket, and scored a two-pointer.
114 to 116! !
The Suns scored the basketball, leaving only 40 seconds of attack time for the Spurs.
Tony Parker dribbled the ball to the frontcourt without any hesitation, and lobbed the ball to the inside. Duncan received the ball and singled out Marion.
In the face of Duncan's post-up singles, Marion has almost no power to parry, Richardson can only go up, and together with Marion, they will double-team Duncan.
Duncan scored the ball out of the three-point line, Chris Bowen received the ball from the bottom line for a three-pointer, and directly opened his hand for a three-pointer.
There was a crisp sound of wiping the net.
The pure white net flowers splashed, and at the critical moment, Bo Wen raised his knife and dropped it, accurately hitting the bull's-eye, piercing through the heart.
117 to 116! !
With 18 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Suns trailed by 1 point, but they had a chance to kill their opponents with a fatal blow.
Nash dribbled the ball to the frontcourt without any hesitation. He changed direction directly, exerted force under his feet, shortened his body, and dribbled hard against Tony Parker.
Obviously, Tony Parker can be said to be the Spurs' defensive flaw.
One step from the free throw line, Nash pulled up directly, and made a two-point jump shot.
This is Nash's housekeeping skill, and usually this kind of shot is almost sure.
There was a bang of iron strikes.
At the critical moment, Nash's lore missed.
The basketball bounced off the hoop, and Duncan beat Stoudemire and took off the key rebound strongly.
The Suns could only foul, and Richardson sent Duncan directly to the free throw line.
On the free throw line, Duncan Shifo showed his demeanor, swish twice, and made the free throw steadily.
119 to 116! !
With 8 seconds left, the Suns trailed by three points and had one last chance to attack.
At the critical moment, Marion stood up and used an ugly shooting posture to steadily hit the buzzer to tie the three-pointer.
119 to 119! !
Duncan is very strong defensively in guarding the inside, and the low-post offense is also very difficult to solve. However, Marion is faster than Duncan, so he pulls out and fires.
Duncan couldn't make a throw at all, even if he made a throw, Marion could calmly shoot a three-pointer.
In this goal, the advantages of the two teams are fully presented, and three points are penetrating.
The Suns got speed, the Spurs got size.
The reverse is also true. The two teams attacked each other's weaknesses and even played a tie, dragging the game to overtime.
In overtime, the Spurs no longer gave the Suns a chance. Manu Ginobili and Duncan scored 12 points together, leading the Spurs to the last laugh.
In the overtime game of the Suns, they played the tactics of all soldiers, but lost to the superstar tactics of the Spurs, which really surprised everyone.
Manu Ginobili's demon knife shined in the audience. Throughout the game, he made 22 of 16 shots, 7 of 5 three-pointers, 12 of 11 free throws, 48 points, 7 assists and 5 basketballs. He performed superbly.
Duncan made 20 of 12 shots, 9 of 6 free throws, scored 30 points and 20 rebounds, and hit a large double-double.
Although the Suns had 5 players in double figures, Marion scored 37 points and 15 rebounds, and Stoudemire scored 35 points and 7 rebounds. Their performance was not inferior to Duncan and Ginobili, the two superstars.
However, in key balls and tough battles, the Suns still fell behind compared to the Spurs and could only swallow the bitter fruit of defeat.
As a result of the whole game, the Phoenix Suns scored 131 to 136 with 5 points. While losing the top game, they also swallowed a wave of 5 consecutive losses.
