As long as the game is won, who will remember what a rookie said?

After completing the title defense, what the fans saw later were only comments that were beneficial to them!

Oh yes, and what that idiot Anthony said.

He was lacking something to boost team morale.

If Duncan comes back, it's time for another wave.

…

On the day of the game, the Spurs officially announced that Duncan would play in G5.

After being closed for so many days, such news suddenly broke out. The purpose is very clear, naturally it is to boost the morale of the fans.

So when G5 actually started, AT&T Arena was not only full, but the fans' enthusiasm was extremely strong.

The king returns.

This is not the first time this kind of scene has been performed in the NBA. In history, Willis Reed's performance with the Knicks is also the most talked about among fans.

But such a scene will not lose its luster just because it happened once.

Duncan's comeback is the perfect "return of the king" for Spurs fans!

Lin Ying actually didn't expect Duncan to come back.

So when Anthony makes jokes, he just complains.

Knowing that Duncan would come back, he went to hold Anthony's mouth on the spot!

And Duncan's comeback will have an extremely huge impact on the game.

Basketball is more about skills, but it is always more than skills.

Why did the Nuggets defeat the Spurs at halftime with Duncan absent in the last game? Isn't it just a psychological difference?

The same goes for the Spurs now.

The competition is very fierce.

This is the most intense game in the series.

Duncan of the Spurs came back to fight against the odds, and coupled with the constant cheers and shouts from the fans in the audience, the momentum was overwhelming.

Although Duncan's help on the field was limited due to injuries, the moral boost he brought to the Spurs was immense.

On the Nuggets side, the Match Point players also have a huge desire for victory.

The collision of muscles on the field is exciting and exciting.

"This is definitely an NBA Finals-level confrontation."

Even Yang Yi sighed with emotion more than once.

That is to say, in such a confrontation, details become what determines the outcome of the game.

Karl is still catching Ginobili's single defense and Duncan's inability to come out, while Popovich is also catching Anthony's lateral movement, Iverson's single defense, and even the Nuggets' defensive rotation.

Lin Ying is a bit overwhelmed.

Under this level of confrontation, even a physical monster like him can't stand it.

But he was gritting his teeth, just like Duncan frowning but still taking every step firmly.

The two sides fought fiercely until the fourth quarter. To everyone's surprise, Duncan, who had had no desire to attack before, suddenly started scoring consecutively.

It feels like holding back the blue bar and waiting for the last moment to make a big move.

His offense was quick and decisive, giving the Nuggets no chance to double-team.

Moreover, the Nuggets did not have the physical ability to double-team at this point in the game.

Obviously, this is not Popovich's arrangement, but Duncan's own strategy.

Invincible.

In the end, the Spurs defeated the Nuggets 96-91 at home and tied the score to 2-3!

Duncan's final statistics were 13 points and 15 rebounds, an ordinary double-double, but he was the biggest contributor to the Spurs' victory.

Sometimes, you really can't just look at the data.

Lin Ying learned a lot from this game.

It's not about playing with injuries or the return of the king, but the way Duncan handles injuries.

And he didn’t contribute anything in the first three quarters!

His many pick-and-rolls and containment ensured Parker and Ginobili's scoring.

In this game, GP scored 31 points and 27 points respectively, totaling 58 points.

…

It's a pity to lose in G5, but the Nuggets' morale is not bad.

Karl also acted relatively calmly at the press conference after the game.

"The Spurs performed very well tonight, but the next game is at home."

Simple statistics show that the Nuggets won both home games in the series, with a winning rate of 100%.

Moreover, Duncan can only bring you one moral boost. The Nuggets have a much higher probability of winning the next game than the Spurs.

Lin Ying also feels that the Nuggets have greater hope of winning G6.

As long as the two guns don't fall off the chain.

Well, if there is a chance to do it again, Lin Ying guarantees that he will never have such thoughts.

Because of the double guns, the chain is really off!

In fact, maybe this can't be called a break, because it seems to be a matter of course.

Their performance before was too good.

In fact, Iverson has always been very strong. No matter how you explain his shooting rate in the playoffs, which is less than 40%, it is a bit pale.

Anthony is also half-measured, he is also the type who is a god in the regular season but a ghost in the playoffs.

Of course, in addition to their own factors, their sudden performance dive was mostly due to the Spurs' defense!

How did the Pistons pull off their comeback magic back then?

It's defense!

McGrady was extremely uncomfortable when Prince was guarding him, and the Pistons' defensive system made McGrady want to die.

The Spurs are doing the same thing now.

Then when both guns started to strike, Lin Ying suddenly realized that the contribution he could make was limited.

Regardless of the outcome of this year's playoffs, he must really develop his ball control this summer!

Including special training with Duncan, he also needs to perfect his low post skills.

Only by doing it yourself can you truly have enough food and clothing.

The Nuggets ultimately failed to defend this home court.

After losing this home court, they were tied 3-3 by the Spurs.

The Spurs are telling everyone with practical actions that it is not that easy to defeat an established team like them.

Speaking of which, the series between the Spurs and the Hornets this year in history was very similar to this.

The Spurs lost the first two games, both by close to 20 points.

In the battle of Tianwang Mountain, they lost by almost 30 points.

But in the end, they relied on defensive reversal to win in the tiebreaker.

Although the situation is different now, there is essentially no difference between the two Spurs.

Even because of Duncan's return as the king, the mental attributes of this Spurs team are even higher!

The game was dragged into a tiebreaker, and it was still at the Spurs' home court.

There are already many fans waiting to see Anthony's jokes.

Moreover, the fans’ words are very heart-wrenching, the kind that hit two people in a row.

"Isn't he the next T-mac?"

Before the game between the Nuggets and Spurs, the Rockets were eliminated by the Hornets 1-4.

Although Tracy McGrady played a closed game, he still failed to lead his team beyond the first round.

And Anthony, the same!

From 2005 to 2007, it was the first round for three consecutive years, and they were all 1-4, twice with the Spurs and once with the Clippers. Isn't this the next Tracy McGrady?

Of course, the most suffocating thing was what Anthony said after G4, imitating Tracy McGrady.
