Chapter 967 Was Still Swept
The Blazers' counterattack was very powerful, and 8:0 was considered an offensive climax.

But the Spurs shouted a timeout so fast, before they could fully regain their momentum, Zhuge Weiqi came up with a timeout, abruptly stopping their momentum.

It felt like being comfortable in the tuba was suddenly interrupted by someone, very... aggrieved.

Everyone on the Spurs bench became serious. There was no way. After all, they were blasted 8-0. According to this efficiency, it is not impossible to capsize here today.

However, Popovich is not very worried about the situation in front of him. He can see that the Blazers are hanging on with their lives. Now that their breath has been interrupted, whether the Blazers can hold on in the future does not matter. is a big problem.

"Cheer up, the game is not over yet, you can celebrate after the whistle blows."

Popovich only told them that if he had known about this round of the series, the old man had only prepared tactics for four games in advance. In his opinion, if this round of the series could be done in four games, it would not be possible at all. Need to prepare for the fifth game.

It takes a lot of confidence in one's own subordinates to achieve this level!

Everyone in the Spurs nodded seriously. They also felt that it would be a bit embarrassing if they were reversed at the last moment, so they consciously re-entered the game state.

"If you can play me and Kawhi, Hassan will play again. In the final closing time, don't give the opponent a chance." Qin Yan took the initiative to greet the "two virtues" combination of Leonard and Whiteside, and it seemed that he wanted to be serious. grid.

"Well, the rest will be me and Nicola." Parker took the initiative to replace Mills. After all, Mills made some mistakes just now, which led to the team being chased for points. The opponent will definitely continue to target Mills. .

"Come on, these last few minutes, and send the Portland kids home fishing."

"One, two, three, roar!"

The Spurs five will quickly adjust their status and then play.

The Trail Blazers are still the same lineup as before, and they are obviously preparing to hold on to the last bite.

The Spurs attacked, and Parker signaled Whitesidera to come out for the pick-and-roll. What the Spurs need now is to score a goal to stabilize their situation.

Whiteside came out for the pick-and-roll, and he and Parker had a good pick-and-roll effect. Although Whiteside was not stable enough in the mid-range, but after the pick-and-roll, his speed, explosiveness, and dunks in short distances were not what an average center can do. Blocked, although it is said that Qin Yan referred to the tactics that Harden of the Rockets used to feed Capela and improved, but Whiteside played quite easily.

After all, he has longer arms, a stronger body, and a higher jump!

No one inside the Blazers can keep up with Whiteside in terms of speed, even the most flexible little Lopez is barely able to catch up, let alone he is not on the court now.

A pick-and-roll sped up. Although Parker couldn't get rid of Lillard, it was easy and enjoyable for Whiteside to shake off Leonard. After receiving the ball, he dunked with both hands in one step. Whiteside didn't even give him a chance to foul. The Blazers stay.

"Hold on, we can do it!"

McCollum was the first to shout. He didn't expect to be able to defend against the Spurs' offense every time. He played three rounds in a row just now, which is already pretty good.

The Blazers' strong pass from the backcourt was directly given to Batum in the frontcourt!
Batum's shot fake!Instead of fooling Leonard, the dribbling space was further oppressed, so he had no choice but to pass it to Aldridge.

Facing the defense of the rookie Jokic, Aldridge played very tough. It seemed that he wanted to get back all the losses he suffered from Duncan today on Jokic!

It's a pity that Jokic was trained with a group of old hooligans in the Spurs. He is no longer the pure white flower-like man at the beginning of the season. He relied on Aldridge to prepare for a strong fight, and he immediately hugged him !At the same time, he repeatedly signaled to the referee that I fouled!I fouled!Hurry up and blow the whistle!

TMD, I would rather let you make two free throws than let you hit "2+1"!
The Blazers home referee really wanted to let Aldridge call "2+1" without blowing the whistle, but Jokic hugged him so hard that Aldridge didn't even have a chance to make a shot, and he couldn't do without calling a foul.

"drop--"

Jokic made the third offense and sent Aldridge to the free throw line.

Aldridge is not bad at free throws among big men, but he is not so accurate like Yao Ming that others dare not cut him. Sometimes someone will suddenly cut him.

After all, at critical moments, Ade is not the kind of person who can turn things around by himself. (It’s not Adelaide’s fault. There was Roy and Lillard before him. He didn’t give him a chance. He might explode once or twice)
Aldridge knows that every point is critical now, so he told himself in his heart that he must score the ball.

But sometimes fate likes to play tricks on people so much. Ade was thinking of scoring a goal, and the movements of his hands were also very standard. The basketball even plunged into the basket with most of his body, and ended up swishing around in it abruptly. Out!
Can such a small probability event happen?God, have you ditched Portland? (God: I have never pampered you...)
But fortunately, Adelaide scored the second goal. Although 1 point is a bit small, it is better than nothing.

Parker pushed again, and this time Lillard really rushed over to prepare for the ball, but Parker was not Mills, he leaned sideways against Lillard, and abruptly protected the ball and rushed to the frontcourt.

Then, he gave the ball to Qin Yan.

Qin Yan broke through directly, and McCollum rushed over at this time and was about to foul again, but Qin Yan changed direction and then made a big turn, and directly dodged McCollum!
One step, two steps, soaring into the air, high throwing, at least Qin Yan has quickly completed this set of movements when others come up.

Before the Blazers' two insiders had time to get stuck, a black figure rushed out from the diagonal stab, jumped high, grabbed the basketball in the air, and dunked it hard into the basket!

"boom--"

Leonard, successful alley-oop!
"Fast attack! Fast attack!"

Lillard was a little anxious, and hurriedly directed the team to play fast. He controlled the ball and passed Parker in the half court, and then faced Jokic, who had not had time to retreat, and directly shot a three-pointer!
If this three-pointer can be scored, then the Blazers can still keep a little hope. If they don't score but are counterattacked by the Spurs, then they can surrender.

Jokic couldn't keep up with Lillard's speed, so when Lillard jumped up to shoot a three-pointer, he had no time to defend, and could only watch Lillard prepare to shoot.

"Damian ah ah..."

But what people didn't expect was that someone actually rushed over from Lillard's side and slapped the basketball he just shot.

"Take this rebound! Play the fast break!"

Because he rushed too fast, this guy had to use a forward roll to relieve his inertia after landing. No one but Qin Yan could do this kind of action!
Whiteside received the rebound, made a long pass to Parker, and Parker passed it to Leonard, who was temporarily unguarded in the bottom corner, and made a three-pointer!Amidst the sighs of all the Rose Garden fans, a steady hit!
This time, it became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Not everyone can score 35 points in 13 seconds like McGrady, and now the Blazers are behind by more than 13 points.

Lillard's spirit was broken by Qin Yan's slap. In the following time, he became more and more anxious to make shots, and the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't make shots.

The final result is also very clear. The Blazers' counterattack was ruthlessly suppressed. Under the unwilling eyes of the fans, they silently swallowed the result of being swept by the Spurs.

Lillard did not accept too many interviews after the game. Although he congratulated the Spurs greatly in front of the media, after returning to the locker room alone, he cried into tears like a child, belonging to his 14- Season 15 is officially over.

However, he brought new hope to Portland fans this year.

I only hope that in the future, Lillard will not become a tragic hero like Roy, so that this Rose Garden Arena will be more favored by God.
