Iverson returned to the court at the beginning of the second half, but his position became a point guard. Salmons and Kyle Koval remained on the court. This lineup is quite strong, and the full substitute against the Spurs still has a slight advantage.

Especially Iverson, seeing his teammates' hot hands, he began to perform his duties as a point guard. His original position was a point guard. He did not lack passing skills or a lack of vision for passing the ball. All the shooting rights were so concentrated because in his subconscious, he did not have the confidence to pass the ball to others. Now he passed the ball, but it seemed like he was a good match. Especially the pass after the breakthrough, which posed a great threat to the Spurs' defense.[]

The fatigue brought by a long-distance away trip cannot be eliminated by a day of rest. Until now, except for Stephen, the Spurs' substitute lineup has exposed the problem of physical weakness, especially after this game, it is the All-Star holiday. For those players who can enter the All-Star series, the All-Star game is their stage to show their own performance, but for those players who are not qualified to enter, the All-Star game is a rare relaxing holiday in the middle of the season. They involuntarily have to develop a slack mentality. Looking forward to the end of this game early, they are a bit anxious.

**Vic quickly noticed this kind of thinking sign. Before the opponent could surpass the score, he immediately called a timeout to slow down the pace and don't worry. Even if the opponent was leading, there was no problem. Although the opponent was not their full starting lineup, it was basically the strongest lineup they had. Except for Chris Weber and Dalemport in the inside, Salmons and Korver were not inferior to Iguodala and Kevin Ollie.

**The timeout that Vicky called interrupted the 76ers' scoring momentum. After seeing that his teammates failed to make a shot, Iverson tried two shots and hit them all, so he did not continue to split the ball to his teammates, but mostly chose to take action.

Averin's offensive ability is still unstoppable. Even if he doesn't shoot, he can damage the Spurs. He doesn't get any chance to perform on the offensive end. Max wanted to give the coach a positive impression on the defensive end, but because he was too active, he soon got his fourth foul on Iverson.

At this time, the third quarter was only halfway through. Under normal circumstances, even a substitute player should replace him and take a break. On the one hand, he should temporarily leave the referee's sight, otherwise the referee would keep staring at this player. Once you become a player who likes to foul in the mind of the referee, the nitpicking referee will never let you go. On the other hand, if there is something wrong with the game, you still have a chance to play. It is normal to know what happens in the game.

However, **Vic looked behind him, but no one could use it. Nestrovic's physical strength was already problematic. Duncan was too heavy in tactics and had to keep enough physical strength, so even if he wanted to change, there was no one to choose.

But soon Max compensated another foul on Iverson. Even if no one can replace him, he must replace him. You can't wait for him to leave the court. After Sifu for a while, **Vic decided to replace Duncan. He has better physical strength and stronger abilities, and he has more experience in dealing with the situation on the court.

Seeing Duncan on the court, the 76ers also replaced the combination of Chris Webber and Delham Porter. This forced substitution is the one that **Vicci dislikes the most, because in this way, the opponent can adjust his lineup or tactics according to your substitution. **Vicci likes to plan and then act. If there is no problem, he insists on his own tactics and style of play. If there is any problem, he will want to solve the problem, instead of being dealt with by his opponent after being forced substitution.

After Duncan returned to the court, the Spurs' situation began to stabilize, but the opponent was exceptional. Although Chris Webber's explosive power and bounce were not as good as before after knee surgery, his control of the game and his experience in playing ball was still there. In addition to his fame, Iverson was willing to cooperate with him. The scores of both sides were still tightly biting, and no one had the ability to tie the score.

After Duncan came on the court, the other people played more comfortable and the ball was running smoother, but everyone had less ability to take action, especially for Stephen, before Duncan played, he was the Spurs' first point of attack. Ginobili was like sending ammunition to him. He was always able to receive Ginobili's passes at the right position. However, after Duncan came up, the distribution rights were in Duncan's hands. Duncan paid more attention to the balanced allocation of mobile phones and shooting rights, and Stephen's mobile phones were reduced accordingly.

Although Stephen was a little disappointed, he still actively cooperated with the running, and felt that the entire substitute lineup was still very good. However, Stephen also knew that the Spurs would never have the unlimited firepower like Kobe in the Lakers, Iverson in the 76ers or James in the Cavaliers, and he would not dare to say that he could change the coach's tactics as he pleased. Stephen now has no less than Parker and Ginobili. The Spurs' shots are relatively average. Duncan's average shots are about seventeen. Ginobili and Parker are one with fourteen more, and the other is slightly less than fourteen. If Stephen had not dragged his back in the first half of the game, he had only three three shots per game. If he only looked at the number of shots in recent times, he was even more than Duncan.

Running like this with non-subjective intentions is very physically exhausting, especially when the run was not over, Stephen quickly ran and kicked up angry. After seeing this, **Vic immediately thought that Stephen had played for nearly two quarters. Although he did not play in the previous away games, Stephen was injured. Now the two quarters are about to be played, and maybe he will continue to play later. **Vic used Bruce Bowen to replace Stephen.

Who knew that he had just made an adjustment, and the opponent replaced Korver with Iguodala. Iguodala quickly staged a small cooperation in the penalty area with Chris Webber to catch the ball. If Stephen was there, it would never be possible for him to take action so easily. However, Bruce Bowen's defense can only exert his power from the outside, and when he reaches the inside, he will basically lose most of his performance.

This game is not easy to play, and **Vic immediately had this premonition. The main lineup did not have an advantage, and the substitute lineup did not defeat the opponent. The opponent could compete with the Spurs, which ranked first in the league, by relying on just one Iverson. I don’t know if this is a proof of Iverson’s ability.

Iverson has scored 28 points so far. It seems that it is not a problem to break through his average season in this game. On the other hand, the Spurs have the highest score of Stephen's 18 points. Iverson has made 24-game 11-of-24 shots and six-free throws are also the main reason why they can compete with the Spurs today.

The overall shooting percentage of the Seventy-Sixers is as high as 45%, while the Spurs only have 41%. This is what Bruce Bowen made two shots, Mohamed made three of four shots, and Stephen made seven of ten shots.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Spurs played well and led the opponent by four points. But suddenly, after a while, I don’t know what happened, the Spurs team suddenly became unable to play the team. Mohamed, Tony Parker, and Duncan were stolen by the opponent three times in a row. Duncan alone was stolen by Chris Wes four times, contributing four mistakes, and being overtaken by the opponent by four points.

Physical strength, or physical strength, **Vicz knew this very well, but he had no one to replace it, so he could only use Nestrovich to replace Mohammed. Duncan and Tony Parker could only let them concentrate, but they were no one to replace it. Max was five fouls, wouldn’t it be the target of attack when it was replaced? Van Exel was there to drink water and breathe. However, Stephen had recovered at this time and saw the coach looking over and be energetic there. However, Bruce Bowen and Michael Finley performed well on the court, so **Vicz’s eyes just swept away and didn’t stop on him at all, disappointing Stephen.

The four-point gap has been narrowed and then widened. Seeing that the victory is in sight, Iverson did not take any random moves, but instead strengthened his defense. None of the players of the two teams has more time than his playing time, but until now, he is the only one who continues to play on the court at a speed of running on the court.

With twenty-four seconds left in the game, the Spurs finally first made a three-pointer by Bruce Bowen, and then defended his opponent's attack, narrowing the gap to one point. However, Bruce Bowen paid the price of sprain and limped off the court. **Vic looked at the people below and let Stephen go on the court, and at the same time replaced Michael Finley with Ginobili.

Finley's touch today is very bad, especially a three-pointer, a three-pointer with one of five shots. At this time, he should not continue to stay on the court, especially his physical strength is also a problem, and he can no longer run on the court. When setting up tactics, **Vic asked that if the opponent's defense shrinks and does not give the Spurs the chance to play the inside, then it will be easier to shoot three-pointers from the outside. If the shot is made, it will be easier to defend against the opponent's offense. As long as the opponent does not make a three-pointer, it is enough. Even if it doesn't work, there is only one point gap anyway, and it is not too late to use foul tactics. Therefore, **Vic asked not to delay until the end when taking action, and leave two or three seconds.

In terms of task allocation, **Vicci arranged Stephen as the first striker. Although Stephen did not make a three-pointer today, his shooting feels very good. At the same time, Robert Horry and Bruce Bowen, who are best at shooting three-pointers, cannot play. Ginobili's three-pointer today is as unreliable as Michael Finley, so we can only look at Stephen's.
