Defending champion

Chapter 458

Chapter 31 Hornets upset

The Hornets rose all of a sudden, and the Hornets also successfully handed over the hot potato to the Spurs.

Jack's successive attacks also played his role as the backbone of the Hornets.The Hornets' dispatch has also become clearer.The Hornets also began to regain their confidence.

When the Spurs wanted to rush over again, the Hornets' players were extremely active on the perimeter and did not give the Spurs a chance at all.

Taking advantage of his speed, Parker made a change of direction in front of his body and directly broke through to the basket. Jack immediately defended the past. Parker saw Jack flying towards him like a hungry wolf.

Unable to tighten his heart, Parker made a high throw under the basket, and Parker's shooting was interfered.

The rebound was grabbed by Tyson Chandler. Paul dribbled the ball and controlled the rhythm.

"Jack, Jack..." The Hornets fans who came to watch the game began to shout Jack's name.

In contrast, the San Antonio Spurs players on the scene kept shouting ": Defense, defense, defense..."

With 3 minutes and 56 seconds left in the game, the Spurs have fallen behind by 3 points.The San Antonio Spurs still have a chance, as long as they don't make mistakes, and they can kill the Hornets' offense.

However, it is not easy to extinguish the Hornets' offense.

Paul's quick dribble advance from the Hornets half to the Spurs half.

The basketball is in Jack's hands again. The Hornets need Jack, and Jack needs to give the Spurs another heavy blow.

Jack has hit the Spurs twice in a row. If he succeeds again this time, Jack will further establish the Hornets' victory and put the Spurs in complete despair.

Because of this, as soon as Jack got the basketball, the Spurs players frantically moved towards Kevin.

At this time, they would rather let the other Hornets shoot, even if they make a shot, it is better than being scored by Jack again.

However, Jack must make a breakthrough at this time, because only a breakthrough, only his own breakthrough, can defeat the last confidence of the Spurs.Jack held the basketball with one hand in his right hand, watching a group of Spurs players moving over.

Duncan was directly in front of him, Bonner assisted Duncan on one side, and the Spurs also had a double defense formed by Horry and Ginobili standing behind the basket.

"The Spurs really think highly of themselves, and the defense they set up for themselves is difficult enough." Jack thought in his heart.

But because of this, Jack felt that there was a little bit of excitement in his calm heart, and the difficulty was high enough to be interesting enough.Before he knew it, Jack's thinking was already very close to those perverted superstars.

Jack's body shook quickly, he took the ball in front of Duncan, and strode forward, it seemed that Jack was about to make a breakthrough.

Jack's breakthrough in the front was too fierce, and Duncan slid towards the right suddenly, but Jack made a light change in front of Duncan, striding away and easily throwing Duncan away.

At this time, Jack started the explosive first step. Bonner, who wanted to delay Jack, was knocked away by Jack's shoulder.Then I watched Jack fly easily into the Spurs' penalty area again.

At this time, Reggie Miller was already shouting in surprise from the commentary booth: "Jack came in again, he came in again."

Hornets fans were already raising their arms and chanting, but they were up in the air, ready for another Jack who switched hands.But I felt that my world was tilted suddenly, and a strong force pulled me to deviate from the flight track.

He was teetering in the air, and was about to fall to the floor, his body was tilted, but Jack's mind was clear.

"The San Antonio guys are starting to foul themselves," Jack thought with a smile on his face.

Jack took one last look at his position in an extremely unbalanced posture, still far from the backboard.

Jack's toss looked too erratic to have any aim at all.

But the basketball rubbed against the backboard almost weirdly, turned an angle, jumped on the basketball twice, and then fell into the Spurs' basket.

"Forcing" the referee's whistle sounded, and the Spurs made a defensive foul.

Jack broke into the inside of the Spurs again, and even though the opponent fouled, Jack threw the basketball in.Instantly, Jack was an invincible figure.

Bonner, who reached out to pull Jack, had a dull expression on his face. He couldn't imagine that he had used such a lot of force, but he still couldn't stop Jack.

Spurs fans at the San Antonio Arena were also stunned by Jack's incredible goal.

Facing Jack, they also had a sense of fear in their hearts: such goals can be scored, how can there be any types of goals that cannot be scored?

Jack scored 2+1!

"Oh, unbelievable, unbelievable... a goal like Jack can be scored, so what else can't be scored?" Charles Barkley shouted passionately from the commentary booth.

On the other hand, his rival Kenny Smith had a large black line on his forehead.Why does Jack always stand in the wrong position in the game?He is always the one who is injured in every game.He felt very sad and wronged.

On the other hand, Reggie Miller had a calm face, ignoring the struggle between them.He was watching the game happily.

At this time, Popovich saw that his last defensive trick was useless, and the Spurs players also saw that they had defended desperately, but the final result was like this.

In an instant, the situation was reversed again.When you chase your opponent desperately, you finally catch up to it, but when your opponent turns around, they suddenly throw you into the abyss again.

The current Spurs players have experienced such an experience psychologically.This kind of blow is too great, give you hope, and then destroy it.

At this point, the Spurs no longer have any belief and hope of winning.The advantage of the score and the advantage of the game returned to the hands of the Hornets, and the situation became completely different after that.

"Beep..." The whistle sounded for the end of the game!

At the end of the game, in the end, the Hornets won the first game at the San Antonio Spurs' home court by 88 to 78 with a 10-point difference.

The Hornets won, yes, the Hornets won, the first game of the third round of the Western Conference playoffs, after a lapse of a year, the Hornets defeated the San Antonio Spurs in the playoffs.

The Hornets also broke out the biggest upset in the league today.

However, the Hornets players were not blindly confident. Their victory in this game was entirely due to Jack's personal strength. The Spurs' control of the game in the second half almost suffocated the Hornets.

Although the Hornets won, the media hardly made a conclusion about this round of matchup.In the playoffs, the Spurs are still the team most trusted by the media.

"Dude, don't be too happy too early. This is just a small game in a seven-game four-win system. This game depends entirely on Jack's personal ability to win. I don't. I think the Hornets still have a chance to win in the next game, and Popovich will definitely block Jack." Kenny Smith said to Charles Barkley very angrily.

"Man, you don't need to use your worries to cover up your inner fears, and I don't expect the Hornets to win San Antonio in Game [-]. But it's good to win. In the next game, San Antonio has almost no chance." Charles Barkley continued laughing.Charles Barkley looked ecstatic after the Hornets' Game [-] victory over the San Antonio Spurs.
