Little Bobo, Do You Only Know How to F * ck Duncan
Duncan only rested for five minutes before he was replaced by Popovich. Big Yao, who went down earlier than him, was still resting off the field.
As soon as Duncan came on, the effect was immediate. Ginobili, who originally only relied on the Spurs to score, was instantly liberated.
The one defending against Duncan was Camby. Camby and Duncan had a history in college. The two of them were rivals in college, the kind that could not be distinguished.
But now, Duncan could almost beat Camby, who didn't have much single-player defense.
As soon as Duncan came on, the offense and defense reversed, and the Spurs recovered six points in just 2 minutes and 34 seconds.
The difference in points was in the single digits. Li Muchen was at ease, but Iverson, who was sitting on the bench, could not sit still. He volunteered to play.
"Don't worry, continue to rest!"
Li Muchen smiled and rejected Iverson's offer.""That old man Bobo brought on Duncan and only managed to recover six points in two and a half minutes. This efficiency is really too poor.”
"Don't be in a hurry to go on stage. I'll see if Popovich has any other moves.”
Putting Duncan on the court to chase for points, let alone chasing for 6 points in 2 minutes and 30 seconds, even chasing for 10 points, Li Muchen was not anxious at all.
After all, this was Duncan, not the Spurs 'substitute.
If the Spurs 'substitute managed to catch up to six points in such a short time, Li Muchen would curse the players on the field to death!
Bringing up Duncan in advance meant that Popovich had no way to deal with him.
"Zhuge Weiqi? I think you only know how to f * ck Duncan, little Bobo!”
Li Muchen's expression was indifferent. Iverson only needed to continue sitting off the field to rest.
Li Muchen did not adjust the lineup, but Popovich did. He left Ginobili on the field and replaced Cole, Marik Rose, and Danny Ferry.
At this moment, the lineup of the Spurs on the court was the most elite lineup of the Spurs: GDP Admiral Bowen.
This lineup was far from what the 76ers 'reserve lineup could handle, but Li Muchen took advantage of the lead and forced Big Yao and the others to rest for a minute and a half.
"Substitution, Iverson, Big Yao, Stoudemire, Butler, you guys go!!!”
Five minutes into the second quarter, when the difference between the two sides was only four points, Li Muchen brought on all the main players except Billups.
This lineup was the most common lineup of the 76ers in the preseason, and it was also the strongest lineup of the 76ers!
The most elite players from both sides were facing each other.
.....................................
" The Sixers have finally made a substitution. Coach Muchen Lee has replaced Crawford, Prince, Marcus Camby, and Samuel Dalembort with Iverson, Big Yao, Stoudemire, and Butler.”
"This is the starting lineup that the 76ers have always used in the preseason. I can say that this is the strongest lineup of the 76ers.”
Barkley and Smith analyzed. Then, Smith said,"The Spurs 'lineup is also my strongest lineup. The two teams are at the peak. The next game should be very exciting!!!”
From the clash of tactics between the two teams in the early stages, the clash of superstars, and the deployment of troops during the substitutes 'time, the two teams would definitely be very intense in the next game.
However, the development of the matter was beyond Smith's expectations.
The fierce and exciting clash that Smith thought had happened did not happen. The two teams had once been one-sided, and it could even be said that they had crushed each other.
After the 76ers used all their main players, an 8-0 climax knocked the Spurs unconscious. Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich roared at the sidelines,"
"Follow me. Haven't you f * cking eaten? Follow me!!!”
"Defend! Defend!”
"Parker, were you squeezed dry by a woman yesterday? Ginobili, why don't you scram back to Northern Europe?"
Popovich scolded the players, and Li Muchen, who was sitting in the technical area, could not help but smile.
In fact, the strength of the two teams 'main players should be about the same. The reason why the 76ers were able to achieve an 8-0 record was because the main players had rested for a long time and everyone was full of energy.
Li Muchen was the first to replace Big Yao. Big Yao rested for almost 10 minutes off the court. If the timeouts were counted, he had rested for almost 20 minutes in the first period.
Iverson and Stoudemire had enough rest time. Billups came on as a substitute and was full of energy. Butler did not play much. He had endless energy.
On the Spurs 'side, Duncan only rested for about four minutes.
If it was a normal game, Duncan would have rested for four minutes. It was only the second quarter of the game, and he was still full of energy. However, the 76ers had consumed Duncan's energy from the beginning.
Iverson went for a one-on-one with Duncan. Big Yao did not hesitate to consume his energy under the basket. He kept blocking Duncan's position and did not rest for a moment.
The two core players of the Sixers took turns to consume Duncan's stamina. This was the reason why Duncan's stamina was exhausted too quickly.
Even an iron man like Iverson couldn't be running around the entire game.
In the NBA, perhaps only Zhang 20,000 could do it.
After Popovich angrily scolded the players, he called for a pause again. He adjusted his strategy and changed the team's offensive core to let Duncan take a break on the field.
This adjustment was still very effective. In addition, Popovich's barrage of words at the Spurs players boosted the morale of the Spurs players. They stabilized the situation and did not collapse.
The two teams fought until the end of the second quarter. The Sixers led by 13 points and entered the second half.
"Well done, lads. Hahaha, I'm afraid you haven't seen Popovich's face. It's as black as a pig's liver!”
Halftime, locker room.
Li Muchen laughed and exaggerated his players. In his previous life, the Spurs were the champion team of this season. The 76ers were able to lead the Spurs by 13 points at halftime. This was a great encouragement for the 76ers and Li Muchen.
As long as they could maintain this trend, it would not be a problem for the 76ers to win the championship.
Unlike the relaxed and happy atmosphere of the Sixers, all the players in the Spurs locker room had their heads lowered and their faces were full of frustration.
