Gregg Popovich treated this opener like the Finals.

Although he has never coached the Finals, although this is the first game of his coaching career, and although the Spurs are still an emerging team, considering the opponent, he has no reason not to take it seriously.

Because, Leader is the contemporary Reed Auerbach.

Oh no, maybe it won't be long before the world stops calling him Leader.

This nickname has a strong New York flavor, and Los Angeles people prefer to call him LegendLu.

The only problem is that he hasn't done a "Legend" thing in Los Angeles, and once he does, Legend will replace the leader faster than expected.

In the opening quarter and a half, the Spurs led by 7 points.

Popovich feels that the Lakers are still running in.

As a result, after a timeout, Louie changed his lineup, replacing Kobe, who was active but not well-organized, and replaced a seemingly incongruous three-line lineup with miraculous results.

How can Popovich not understand how a lineup with a 2 and four frontcourt players works?

Iverson lost his previous brilliance and began to fall into the vortex of the Lakers.

As if his IQ was cleared, he turned a blind eye to the Lakers' trap.

Popovich's roar didn't work, and Iverson went his own way.

If he can ensure the consistency of the pass, then it's okay to take risks like this. The problem is, his passing is not stable.

Wilson maintains a super-intensive matchup defense, and even if Iverson's speed can easily break through his defense, he still can't get rid of him.

This is a convenience provided by the era when HANDCHECK is allowed to defend.

But this is just a small problem.

The key is the trouble Iverson encountered after his breakthrough.

Ben Wallace, a Lakers player who did not enter the Spurs' pregame plan and scouting report at all, used superb defensive skills to completely limit Iverson's lack of change in breakthroughs. Error free update@

He turned into a warrior who blocked the muzzle time and time again, blocking Iverson's path unpredictably. Even if the latter accelerated, his movement speed far exceeding the normal inside line could still ensure that the defense would not lose position.

The helpless Iverson fell into a vicious circle where it was difficult to find the direction, and the defensive pressure brought by Big Ben made his passing lose stability.

It was the most chaotic minutes for the Spurs since the start of the game.

Iverson didn't make any achievements, just kept breaking through the wall, missed layups, missed passes or passed the ball of poor quality, even if his teammates received it, it was difficult to start offense.

Unable to bear this scene, Popovich replaced Iverson after the score was overtaken.

Then, Popovich replaced Steve Kerr, who joined the team this summer.

Although Kerr does not have the offensive ability of Iverson to single out an entire line of defense, but as a veteran, he has the overall situation and reliable shooting skills that make the coach quiet before, and is willing to play a supporting role.

Popovich focused his offense on Jamal Mashburn and David Robinson.

Mashburn has a higher status because he is the Lakers' worst defensive tragic player on the court.

It stands to reason that as long as he keeps giving the ball to Mashburn, he can tear the Tragic division's defense to shreds.

But Tragic only does one thing on the defensive end, and that is to interfere with Mashburn's shot.

If Mashburn wanted to shoot, the Tragic didn't care.

Because, Garnett and Big Ben are one of the best defenders.

In particular, Big Ben, although it has not evolved into the future four DPOYs, has already shown full potential.

Just looking at the pressure on the offense during help defense and switching, even Garnett is not as good as him.

Garnett and Big Ben formed a defensive net, so the Spurs could only hand over the ball to David Robinson and let him attack with the ball.

That's just the dilemma the Spurs have on offense.

On the defensive end, the Spurs didn't know how to deal with the Lakers' "shooting star" tactics.

This is the second year that the "Meteor" tactic has been put into actual combat, Wilson and Garnett. (This chapter is not over!)

Chapter 1246 "Meteor"

, The Tragic Master and Liu Yuqing all acted more calmly.

The tacit understanding between them is very good.

Although Daben looks like an outsider, he has also achieved the effect of a tool man who points where to play.

The first three "meteor" tactics were scored twice, and they were all the kind of offense that the Spurs had no way to do -- one was to pass the ball to empty the Spurs' inside line, Liu Yuqing caught the ball and made a layup, and the other was a teammate involved. Space, the tragic division vacant three points.

The possession that didn't score was not a tactical reason, either, but Garnett's inability to take an open shot.

In the fourth round, the Lakers finally made a mistake.
