Except for Duncan, most of the others have problems with insufficient physical fitness. Although there are injuries, they are not that serious. Moreover, the importance of other people is naturally incomparable to Duncan. Even if one or two are absent, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, but this physical fitness problem must be taken seriously.

Robert Horry, in a report from the team doctor, said that his physical fitness cannot be solved through training or rest due to his age. Each game can only maintain high-quality games of sixteen to eighteen minutes. After more than the time, the player will feel tired, and his condition will decline and his body will be easily injured.

Brent Barry and Michael Finley are slightly better. Both of them have more than twenty-five minutes of playing time. Judging from their positioning and regular playing time in the team, such playing time is enough. Van Exel did not pay attention to training when he was young and relied too much on his body to play. His physical fitness was not very good, and his physical injuries were many, which affected his condition.

Among other players, such as Nestrovic and Mohamed, they are in good health, and Obotto is almost the same. Needless to say, Yudic is a young man, who has basically not played in the formalities, so there is no possibility of fatigue, so **Vic considered whether to give Yudic some opportunities in the next game.

However, the reason why **Vicci dared not do this is that the next one is the Mavericks' home court. Can he, a young man, bear such pressure? Moreover, the Spurs have lost a home court, and they really can't squander the capital.

A better point is that there is three days off between the second and third games, which is good news for the Spurs who are in urgent need of rest. **Vic even plans to take a bus to Dallas to play away games. Doing so can reduce flight fatigue and also give players a different journey where they can relax.

To be honest, let alone those players, even **Vicci himself was a little bit of vomiting when he was on the plane, so after thinking of this idea, **Vicci hurriedly arranged it and then arranged assistants to keep the training these days to maintain their condition and restore their physical fitness. No confrontational training or tactical classes are arranged. The game against the Mavericks is no longer a tactical matter. Moreover, now there are no soldiers and lack of soldiers, and even if there are tactics, they can't play. It's better to let the players have a good rest.

Even Stephen was forced to reduce the amount of training. Although it was found through the test that Stephen's physical condition was not a problem, he was still required to rest for safety reasons. After all, Duncan cannot count on him now, so he can only count on these outside players.

After three days of rest, the Spurs team took a long bus to Dallas. The Mavericks team were very happy about the arrival of the Spurs, especially their boss Mark Cuban, who was even more excited and enthusiastic about the Spurs.

For so long, Mark Cuban has seen the championship trophy for the first time, and once he defeated the old Spurs, the Mavericks have great advantages, whether it is the Phoenix Suns or the Los Angeles Clippers.

Then in the finals, the Pistons were in poor form and the Heat were also a veteran. Cuban was a little impatient to wait for the game to start, win, and attack the championship step by step. After a few years of investment, he was about to see the rewards coming, so why didn't he feel excited?

The third game between the Spurs and the Mavericks in the Western Conference Semi-finals began at the U.S. Route Center Arena. Dallas fans were much more enthusiastic than San Antonio fans. The Mavericks' mascot kept distributing various gifts to the fans on the scene. Mark Cuban was quite generous in this regard, and he was just as fined for the league.

When a team feels that it is extremely powerful and invincible, you will feel that this team is good everywhere, but once you find that this team will still fail, you will find that this team is weak everywhere, and this is how the Spurs are now.

When the Spurs won the league first, everyone felt that the Spurs were invincible this season, and defending the title should not be difficult for them. It seems that breaking the even-year championship-winning magic scolding seems to be a natural thing. Last year's winning lineup did not change, and several powerful and experienced players were strengthened. Although the Spurs' three troikas are one year older, they are still in their year of playing. Moreover, with the allocation of **Vic, they used tactics to make up for their physical strength problems. The perfect execution brought good tactical effects. At the same time, the strength of the substitute lineup prevented them from being unavailable.

No matter how you look at the Spurs, the championship looks like a complete one. Even if you fail occasionally, it is within an acceptable range. There is no team that will not fail. The extremely powerful Bulls have only won 72 wins. Except for the three-game losing streak in the middle, there is no problem with everything else.

Even if he lost a game against the Kings, no one would think that the Kings would pose any major threat to the Spurs. The obvious point is that the defeat was that. The Spurs had a strong taste of water. It was obvious that the Spurs hoped to return to home to defeat the Kings. Although Wells caused great trouble to the Spurs, it was just a problem at this point.

However, in the Western Conference semi-finals, when every game is extremely critical, the Spurs actually lost to the Mavericks at home. Moreover, from the first game, the Spurs were a little difficult to deal with and barely passed the level. In the second game, the Spurs were simply powerless and exhausted, which everyone saw.

At this time, all the Spurs' problems came up, including physical problems, injuries, and the main and secondary actions. Stephen's excellent performance in the last quarter of the second game is true, but it has nothing to do with the Spurs' always proud tactics. He supports the Spurs entirely with his personal strength. If the pit was not dug too much in front, who would have the victory of this game for another five minutes? If Stephen took over the game five minutes in advance, the game might be another result.

This situation makes people pay attention to this issue. If the Spurs' tactical playing style continues, Stephen's singles ability is a waste, and if Stephen continues to play like this, then the Spurs' tactical advantage will become nothing.

This problem is not impossible to solve, but it takes time. Now at the critical moment of the playoffs, every game is crucial. The Spurs have no chance to use such a game to test it. Everyone really imagines how the Spurs will play in this game.

The adjustments after each game of the playoffs are the most concerned issues for some experts or professional fans, but this time they disappointed them. The Spurs and the Mavericks line up the starting lineup from the previous game. It is normal for the Mavericks to win or not to adjust, but why did the Spurs still stick to the lineup from the previous game?

In fact, **Vicci did not have such concerns. As the head coach, he knew very well what the team had. If there was a sudden outbreak of Nowitzki in the last game and there was no suitable player to defend him, the Spurs would not have been so big a score gap in the third point, so the Spurs would not have failed. Therefore, he believed that there was no problem in sticking to the tactics and style of play in the previous game, and the main thing was to adjust the players' physical strength and condition.

Not to mention that Nowitzki cannot break out every game. Even if this game is going to break out, **Vic also has secret weapons to deal with him. In the last game, Stephen's defense against Nowitzki was quite good in the last quarter. Although such a defense would consume Stephen's physical strength, Stephen has never had any physical exhaustion problem, and he doesn't have to defend Nowitzki all the time. As long as he defends when Duncan can't play.

After more than three days of rest, Duncan directly asked for the ball at a low position as soon as he came on the court. Robert Horry directly hung the ball backwards. After Duncan received the ball, he turned around and cut into the back with a small hook, hooked the ball into the basket. The whole process was like an antelope hanging on the corner, without any dragging it out. There was no sign that Duncan was seriously injured and could not continue playing as the media said.

Nowitzki missed the shot, and Duncan jumped up and took off the basket again. When he was in the air, he threw the ball towards his half. At this time, he saw two figures running over at the landing point of the ball. One black and one white were Tony Parker and Devin Harris, but behind the two, there was a black figure running aside at a speed that was not inferior to them.

Stephen's ball control speed is naturally not as good as the two of them. Not to mention that both of them are famous for their speed, even ordinary point guards, Stephen may not be able to catch up with the ball when controlling the ball, but it is different if he runs empty-handed. Stephen is just a little slower than them when he goes all out.

Tony Parker was very clever. After seeing someone chasing him, he saw a figure of the same color jersey running on the side with the corner of his eyes. He directly held the ball upwards while running. The ball immediately flew high and flew towards the rebound. At this time, Stephen paused, and his figure soared into the sky like a rocket. He received the ball at half of his body higher than the basket, then glided to the position of the basket, and waved his hand to smash the ball into the basket.

However, it was probably because he used too much force. Stephen was a little unrestrained when he landed on the ground. He ran to the basketball stand and lay on it, and then waved his hands and waved it non-stop. Everyone on the Spurs were a little worried. Will Stephen be injured? Stephen is the team's biggest hope now. His physical strength, impact and health are indispensable to the Spurs now.

Even Mark Cuban, who saw this dunk on his own, also loved Stephen. Such a player has the strength and can drive the market. Will that boss dislike it? I wonder if there is a chance to recruit such a player. Mark Cuban immediately made up his mind and waited for the season to end and asked Nelson Jr. to ask if there is any possibility.
