Only two and a half minutes left in the first quarter.
The most important task for the Kings is not to let the Spurs rise. It is said that Grant, who has a better defense, should be arranged to appear.
But Su Yang chose to trust his intuition, and believed that Green's spirit of fighting at any time would allow him to better control the situation.
Hearing Su Yang's shout, Green took off his jacket and walked to the technical stage, then stepped on the stage and stood at the power forward position, and the game continued.
The Spurs replaced Danny Green with George Hill, and played a double point guard combination with Mills. The defense was relatively poor, but the field control was better, but Leonard was replaced by Kyle Anderson, and Aldridge was replaced by Gaso Er replaced him and lost his absolute strength.
After several consecutive rounds, the Spurs finally broke the scoring drought.
But there were only two points, but the defense was much stronger than expected, and they kept defending the King until they lost a point.
Su Yang was dumbfounded when he saw this, thinking that Antetokounmpo was injured and couldn't play the full first quarter, and the king was still in the embarrassment of scoring in the rotation stage, just like searching and reprogramming the code, the function finally worked normally, but later found that it was not Find the real bug.
Fortunately, Rose and Green took the lead in supporting the defense, and did not allow the Spurs to score more points, and they did not have the same wave as they were before.
In the live broadcast, Van Gundy showed disappointment: "Giannis' injury is painful, but I must point out that the Spurs' rotation cannot seize opportunities. They still adopt a relatively conservative strategy. It seems that they are not worried about falling behind by many points." .”
Jackson also sighed: "A few years ago, the Spurs made many bold moves. For example, in the 14 Finals, they suddenly changed Diaw as the starting power forward. Four years have passed, and there has been no similar attempt. Really every coach will aged."
Between the talks, the game reached nine and a half minutes left in the second quarter, and the Spurs requested a timeout and replaced George Hill with Leonard.

Cheers erupted in the arena, and the game continued.
At this time, the Kings led the Spurs 25 to 13.
After the Spurs scored in double figures, it didn't look so dazzling, and the morale of the fans and players showed signs of rising again.
The referee whistled the ball and timed it, and the King kicked off from the backcourt baseline.
As usual, the horn formation started, but this time it was Leonard leading the defense. Curry used the screen to get to the free throw line, but failed to get rid of the entanglement in time. Throw the ball to Nance Jr. in the left corner.

After all, the offensive skills were wrong, the basketball bounced back with a bang, and cheers erupted in the arena, but in the chaotic scramble, the basketball flew out of the baseline due to force, the referee blew the whistle and awarded the king the ball in the frontcourt, Su Yang immediately got up and arranged a LOOP Tactics, intending to use the Spurs' defensive strategy of intentionally emptying Nance Jr. and Lopez's mid-range and long-range shots, it is best to grab a two-pointer.
The king's generals were ordered to immediately set up their formations.
The referee blew the whistle to time the ball. Curry started off from the free throw line on the right. With the cover of Nance Jr. and Lopez Jr., he went straight to the left corner. Also reached the right bottom corner to involve defense.
For a while, the Spurs naturally chose to let go of Lopez, the lowest threat, and Gasol moved laterally to help delay Curry.
Seeing this, Green from the baseline threw the ball to the free throw line. Daluo caught the ball and shot it, and the two points went into the net, like a normal training.
The King finally broke the scoring drought of nearly 5 minutes.
In the live broadcast, Van Gundy clapped his hands lightly, showing admiration on his face: "The Kings have great tactical skills and strong execution, and Su Yang's on-the-spot arrangement is also top-notch. He saw that the Spurs chose to let go of JR Larry Nance in the last round. , Immediately instructed to run tactics around the big man, the running position is not too complicated, the core is that the shooter runs on both sides to involve space, and at the same time take advantage of JR Larry Nance's rush to the basket to create the best shooting environment for Lopez, that tactic fits perfectly Their lineup, perfect use of the characteristics of each player, and perfect use of the Spurs' defensive strategy, I rarely have such a moment in my personal coaching career. To be honest, I officially became a coach at the age of 23, and I can be regarded as young and famous, but I am very envious Su Yang, he has done a better job in all aspects."
Jackson laughed: "Su Yang also failed to completely solve the problem of difficult scoring in the rotation stage, maybe because there is no Brogdon, but that is enough to show that he is just an extremely good coach, not an omniscient coach, don't be too sad. "
While talking and laughing, Leonard broke through and was double-teamed, Gasol missed the ball and the Kings grabbed a rebound and launched a counterattack.
Jeff Green dribbled the ball to the center line, pretending to pass Curry, but in fact he entered the paint area, carried Danny Green to force the layup, and successfully caused a thug foul. The referee whistled and gave two free throws , There were boos in the ATT Center.

Curry nodded and returned to the court. Jeff Green made two free throws. The Kings led 29 to 13 and regained control of the situation.
The two teams switched offense and defense.

The Spurs hastily launched a counterattack. Parker broke through with the help of Gasol's screen at the top of the arc.

After playing a few more rounds, the Spurs struggled to score 4 points, but the Kings scored 5 points, and 19 to 38 looked even more dazzling.
Perhaps unable to bear it anymore, Popovich requested a timeout, replaced Danny Green with Ginobili, and chose to bet.

I guess many people will criticize Popovich after the game. I guarantee his personality. He will definitely do his best. The Spurs won three games in a row at the beginning. Apart from the absence of Curry, another important reason is that many Spurs players are in excellent condition. , but with the deepening of the series, especially the fifth game, the King escaped from death, and they were unable to reproduce their excellent form due to the decline in physical strength and spirit..."
"Ugh…"
