April 19th, the NBA playoffs continued, Spurs played against the Nuggets at home. The Spurs, who returned to the home court, did not give the Nuggets a chance to make a comeback, easily grasped the rhythm of victory, and finally won the game with 118-108, leading the opponent 2-1 with a big score, and expected to advance.
If it weren't for the second game Murray's fairy counterattack, the Spurs had already led the Nuggets 3-0. Judging from the current overall strength, the Spurs have steadily suppressed the Nuggets. Although the Nuggets' regular season record is second in the Western Conference, the Spurs are really stronger.
Why are the Spurs so powerful in the playoffs? In addition to the unexpected tacit understanding and strength of the new double German combination, it is also related to the team's third giant, that is, White White, who performed well in this game. Now White has become the magic weapon for the Spurs to win, the team's new Ginobili .
In this game, White scored 36 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the whole game. He scored repeatedly in the fourth quarter, helping Spurs suppress the momentum of Nuggets counterattack. In fact, White has performed very well in the past two games, and the Spurs have found another treasure.
Look at the Spurs' data in this game in the new season. White scored 36 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, DeRozan scored 25 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists in the whole game, Aldridge contributed 18 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists in the whole game, and the three of them scored 79+20+15. Such data is enough to match the GDP combination of the old seniors.
The Spurs' GDP combination in the past has brought enough glory to the Spurs. They have entered the playoffs for 21 consecutive years and helped the Spurs win five championships. Now that Leonard has left, the Spurs are not heartbroken, but they still have to live a life and have better life than their ex.
So, the Spurs' new three-man combination looks so powerful. Judging from their current age, it is not to mention helping the Spurs to have 20 years of glory, but it is still possible to help the Spurs to have another 10 years of glory, provided that after Popovich retires, the Spurs' coach is still strong.
I have to say that the Spurs' Popovich is the greatest soul in their team's history. It has only been a long time since the GDP combination retired. Popovich has created a new three-horse horse for the Spurs. Even the second-place Nuggets in the West can hardly stop their pace of progress. They are so strong that they have hope for winning the championship in the new season.
