The Spurs entered the fourth quarter with a 12-pointer-departure point difference. **Vic let the GDP group rest for two minutes at the beginning of the fourth quarter. This choice made the Spurs lose hope of a final comeback. Old Dunleavy did not allow their starters to rest in the fourth quarter. Five Clippers started appearing on the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter, using their better physical strength to bully the elderly Spurs.

**Vicci sighed and did not allow the GDP combination to rest. They would still lose the game due to lack of physical strength in the last half of the quarter, which would increase the risk of players being injured. Anyway, they would die at all. **Vicci chose to let the GDP combination rest, and the Spurs coach was already left to fate.

After Artest came on the court, he received a penetrating pass from Billups at the basket. The twin brothers learned from Duncan and blocked his defensive players from left to right. A channel from basketball to the enemy's inside was created. Artest received the basketball at the basket and easily scored two points.

After the Clippers scored this goal, the difference between the two teams had reached 14 points. When they returned to the defensive end, they used joint defense to deal with the Spurs' substitute.

The main force had already gained enough advantage against the substitutes. Once the Clippers' joint defense was used, the Spurs could not even attack. In less than two minutes, the Clippers played a 6-0 small ** and completely ended the game.

In the fourth quarter, the score was 10:05 seconds, and the score was 101:83. Less than two minutes into the fourth quarter, the Clippers have widened the score difference to 18 points.

**Vicci replaced the GDP combination again after the dead ball. This is already a task. Now even **Vicci himself has never thought that he could move the score back.

The game started again. Although the Spurs have not given up yet, they want to move back 18 points in ten minutes. This is basically an impossible task. The Clippers' defense determines that they are the kind of team that is least likely to be reversed. When they feel cold, they can also use their own defense to make the opponent lose points.

Charles Barkley said: "This game is over. The Clippers have not been turned over by their opponents in the last quarter when they were more than 10 points ahead in the last quarter. I don't think the Spurs can be the first team to do this under such circumstances. If the Clippers are 18 points behind, I believe the Clippers have a chance to turn over."

Kenny Smith sighed: "Spurs fans left a message on my blog. Ask me if the current situation is more difficult than the seven-round battle between the 2006. I think yes, the situation at that time was that the Spurs were led by one game, and the Mavericks were defeated by three consecutive games, and then two more games were won back, and the Mavericks lost to the Mavericks in the overtime of the last tiebreak battle. The fans who have seen that series were all excited and nervous at the time, because at least four games the two sides were always leading alternately, and the score difference was extremely small. And in the seventh game. If it weren't for the end of the fourth quarter, Ginobili gave Nonoviski a "2+1". I may not know if the championship ring in 2006 would have fallen into the Fatty House."

Charles Barkley said: "Now, compared to the bull and horse battles, the Spurs could fight against their opponents until the last second, but now, looking back at the three games the Spurs lost, they won two first half, but eventually lost two full games. The disadvantage of old age overwhelms the effect of experience."

Kenny Smith nodded: "So, rather than talking about another dangerous moment, it is really time to change the old and upgrade. Glory only belongs to the past, and more importantly, the present and look to the future. Moreover, this is also the general trend of the NBA today. Johnson, who once fought with **Vic, has been dismissed, and D'Antoni is about to leave; similarly, Nash, who is compared with Duncan, is gradually drifting away, and who can win the fifth championship ring in his career first will probably be an unsolvable proposition."

Charles Barkley smiled and said, "Okay, I've said so much, but the situation is that the Clippers players are enjoying shooting. There is no suspense in this game. Let's congratulate the Clippers in advance. They are about to become the fourth team in NBA history to succeed at home. This will definitely be recorded forever in NBA history. The twin brothers completed a feat in their first season!"

After the last five minutes of the game, some people gradually began to leave the court early because their score behind was still 18 points. After the GDP combination came on the court, they could only stalemate the score, but could not even shorten even if there was a point. In such a game, Spurs fans have lost the hope of turning defeat into victory. They do not want to see the Clippers advance at their home court, so they can only leave early without seeing it.

As the game time decreases, more and more Spurs fans leave the court early. After entering the last three minutes, more than half of Spurs fans left the bench and left outside the court with the crowd.

The score was 111:94, and the Spurs finally narrowed the gap by one point. The coaches of both sides replaced all the main players, and the game entered garbage time.

**Vicci took the lead in replacing the GDP combination. If he didn't do this first, Old Dunleavy would never replace his main player first to be on the safe side. The same is true for Clippers players. The twin brothers are more careful the more they go to the last moment. They don't feel tired at all. When the game is in a smooth wind, no one will feel tired.

When the Spurs gave up this game first, Ji Guoqiu realized that he had won a triple-double again. This seemed to be his first triple-double in the playoffs? In fact, this is nonsense. This game is his fifth playoff game. No matter how talented he has to get a triple-double, he would not be able to get a triple-double in every game.

The final score was 118:103. The Clippers defeated the Spurs away without any danger. The total score was 4:1, eliminating the San Antonio Spurs, the No. 1 in the Western Conference, achieving their goal of becoming the fourth Black Eight team!

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, when everything was settled, it all seemed so incredible, but after careful consideration, it was natural.

Ji Guochou scored 15 points, 17 rebounds, 10 assists and 4 blocks, Ji Guomomoto scored 42 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, Billups scored 15 points, 9 assists, Artest scored 16 points, Mobri scored 9 points, and James Percy scored 9 points.

Duncan scored 17 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, Parker scored 19 points, 5 assists, Ginobili scored 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Thomas scored 10 points, Robert Horry scored 9 points, Michael Finley scored 9 points, Brent Barry scored 5 points, and Bowen scored 6 points.

Brother Pandas completed the milestone of the first triple-double in the playoffs, and brother Foxes also completed the milestone of the first 40+ in the playoffs. The excellent performance of the two was the foundation stone for the Clippers to win. And not just this game, the Clippers were able to blackmail the Spurs. They also rely entirely on the two of them, who are only 19 years old, young insiders.

Ji Guoqiu exchanged jerseys with Duncan after the game. The Spurs players showed their generosity after losing. Ginobili found Ji Guohumili and offered to exchange jerseys.

Ginobili's actions made Ji Guomo unable to react. The little fox originally thought that he had been using group ridicule skills in these games, and had offended the Spurs players from top to bottom. After the game, I'm afraid no one would exchange jerseys with him, but unexpectedly, the Argentinian took the initiative to come to him to make a request to exchange jerseys.

"Hey. Actually, I like watching you play basketball. I also have a "Buddhist-Destroying Battle Clothes" over there. Do you want it?" Ji Guomo was really not meant to be angry with Ginobili. He now looks at the bald Argentina and becomes more pleasing to the eyes.

"No need, you should keep that jersey yourself." Ginobili actually wanted that jersey very much, but was afraid that Duncan would be angry.

Duncan walked to the Clippers bench at this time and congratulated Old Dunleavy. After the two hugged each other, the camera found that the guy actually ran to the Clippers bench and quietly stole Ji Guomo's "Buddha-killing suit!"

**Vicci finally shook hands with Dunleavy. After the Spurs coach congratulated the Clippers' victory, he said before leaving: "The Jazz is not easy to play. But I hope to see the Los Angeles derby."

Old Dunleavy smiled and said, "We have been working hard for this goal."

At the post-match press conference, the two coaches praised each other players one by one, but the media was very disappointed. They hoped that one of them would be angry after the game and had a big verbal battle. This was the topic, harmony and other scenes they didn't want to see the least!

The next day, when the Clippers returned to Los Angeles, the media, who was best at firing the hindsight, continued to show off a "very unexpected" face.

After the game, local media in San Antonio began to make excuses for the Spurs' loss. Of course, they did not mention the Black Basketballs and other things, but instead used the history of the NBA to explain their losses. For example, in the past 18 years, only 8 teams have won the championship. Starting from the Detroit Pistons in 1989 and 1990, the Chicago Bulls won the three consecutive championships in the 1990s, the Houston Rockets defended the title at 94 and 95, and the Los Angeles Lakers also won three consecutive championships at the beginning of the new century.

That is to say, except for players like Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaquille O'Neal and Isaiah Thomas, no other player has been able to defend the championship with the team in the past 18 years. Even great players like Larry Bird have never defended the championship in their careers, and now, it seems that it is Tim Duncan's turn to pass on this nightmare.

In fact, this kind of bullshit is the one that fans hate the most. What kind of rookies No. 6 are cursed and can never be played... Rookies who have won the title of Jordan's second generation usually have to die for good... All are nonsense!

Espn believes that the Spurs are better in defense this year, but aging personnel is an obvious disadvantage, which makes them inevitably fall behind when playing against the young Clippers.

Michael Finley, Bruce Bowen, Cott Thomas and Brent Barry... Most of these players who are very important to the Spurs on both offense and defense have celebrated their 35th birthday. The veteran outside killer, Robert Horry, is 37 years old. The age of the players and the injuries caused by this are the culprits that have broken the Spurs' dream of chasing and defending the title again.

The Spurs, with Duncan as the core, have won 50+ games every year since he joined, but now 32-year-old Duncan can no longer win another four championships for the team. After the end of the season, no matter what the result is, the Spurs may be considering rebuilding.

Of course, there are different ways to rebuild. The Suns and Mavericks have failed to follow the Heat model. The Celtics may be able to fulfill their wishes, but they may not necessarily achieve a real revival. Only the relatively young Gasol has injected fresh blood into the Lakers, but as Kobe grows older, it will take time to verify whether he can truly restore the Purple Gold Dynasty. Therefore, the Spurs should also follow the trend and take advantage of Duncan's age to gather young talents to build a good team for the future, rather than absorbing the old world in the league year after year, only caring about the championship in front of him.

After the game, many media criticized **Vicci's on-the-spot setting. When people fail, everyone often wants to give it a push. It's the same at home and abroad. This is the bad nature of people.

Tim Duncan is the magic weapon for **Victic to succeed in the past decade. He is the soul of **Victic's entire team building system and the player with the best relationship with **Victic. At this difficult moment, Duncan stood up and spoke for **Victic after losing.

"Greg is an excellent coach. We know that the coach will definitely be criticized by the outside world after losing. I feel uncomfortable being eliminated. Our entire team does not want to fail. As a team, we should share life and death, so I don't think it's fair to let a person take all the responsibilities. We all have responsibility for losing."

The Los Angeles Times, a media that should be hostile to the Spurs, wrote a pretty positive report for the Spurs the next day. Of course, this may also be intentionally disgusting the Clippers. The Los Angeles Times is a relative of the Lakers, which is a well-known thing.

It took a long time since Da Bendan, who made an excuse for the black twins, wrote: Why are the Spurs reluctant to buy people? Even players like Ginobili get relatively low annual salary?

The question is very simple. San Antonio is just a small town with a population of 400,000. The team can only manage it hard and make careful calculations when the income is limited. Moreover, this is why the Spurs always don’t care whether they play well, but only care about whether to win, because this may be the way for a small city team to improve themselves. The San Antonios draw a good lottery and they enjoyed it for ten years.

Before the Admiral arrived at the Spurs, the team was even facing the situation of being sold and moved. Duncan's arrival changed everything. Not only did the Spurs become completely reborn, but the Holy City also benefited endlessly. A star and a team are so important to a city. This has far surpassed the significance of competition itself, just like the No. 24 of the Purple and Gold Legion today.
