Now that the Suns have shown their cards, the bet is on whose fist is stronger and whose pistol has more bullets, the situation of the game becomes much clearer.
It was the Suns' turn to attack. Nash dribbled the ball into the paint. He didn't find an open opportunity and didn't panic. He went in and came out again...
Nash strolled in the Thunder's penalty area as if he were strolling through his own back garden.
The first move to break through and find a scoring opportunity failed, so Nash immediately changed to another method.
"It's still Frei and Gorta who move to the high post and play pick-and-roll tactics with Nash.
Fletcher helped Nash cover, got rid of Westbrook, pulled outside the three-point line, and made an off-ball screen for Hill, helping Hill get rid of Billups' defense.
Nash passed the ball behind his back, and the basketball flew accurately to the top of the three-point arc. Hill received the ball, jumped up, and raised his hand to shoot a three-point jumper..."
】
Billups was not careless, but the Suns' tactics were too ungrateful. They actually used continuous screens to create offensive opportunities and give him three-pointers.
Billups had no choice but to bet that Hill's three-point pistol had no bullets.
Bang-dang——!
You guessed it right, there was no bullet in Hill's three-point pistol, and the basketball hoop flew out.
Hong Kong True, Hill's transformation was very successful, and the 2D player played the role very well.
After all, once upon a time, he was Jordan's successor. His talent and foundation were there, and he had the care of the Suns' miracle doctor, which could perfectly extend his career cycle.
Well, the quantity has increased, but the quality cannot be guaranteed.
You must know that Hill is not good at three-pointers. If it were not for Jordan's illness, he would not be able to get the title of successor!
This season, Hill's three-point shooting seems to have disappeared, and his condition is surprisingly poor. He only used 26% of it, and he still seems to be in a hurry. Choosing to shoot three-pointers cannot be said to be similar to giving away points. It can only be said that It's exactly the same.
"A wave of operations is as fierce as a tiger, and the effect is only two hundred and fifty, which is nothing.
The rebounds were protected by Yin Baka, and the Suns were trying to make a fuss by evacuating the perimeter. They basically said goodbye to grabbing offensive rebounds.
Westbrook rushed up with the ball, but Nash interfered with his body and was almost knocked away. The physical confrontation was too weak..."
Don't worry about it, it's very reasonable!
Westbrook dribbled the ball into the penalty area, jumped up, and chose to pass the basketball behind him in the air. Durant, who followed, jumped up and took the ball with a one-on-one dunk...
Bang-dang——!
"The Thunder's two young men connected and scored two points in the counterattack and hit the basket.
An unreasonable display of talent, the Suns' defense is unstoppable..."
4 to 7!
Facing a basket-rush battle with a lot of talent, what can the Suns' defense do?
With both leaks on the outside and softness on the inside, this line of defense is terrifying.
However, the Suns still want to use this lineup to hit the playoffs. It seems that they can only reach the playoffs if they are alive.
It's impossible for the Suns with Nash to rebuild in a bad way, unless it's really bad and there's nothing they can do about it.
It has to be said that the Suns' defensive line is traditionally poor and the league is famous for it, but offensively, with Nash's guidance, the offensive opportunities came out very well.
"It was still the pick-and-roll between Fletcher and Nash. Nash used the screen to break through with the ball.
After the screen, Fulai stretched outside the three-point line, and the offensive space was immediately opened. Nash continued to distribute the ball to outside the three-point line. Fulai received the ball, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper..."
Westbrook switched defenses, and with his height of 1.88 meters, he was mismatched against the height of 2.11 meters, and he could only hear the gunshot.
Bang-dang——!
Still hitting the iron and missing.
The Suns' three-point shooting tonight was too tight.
Consecutive three-pointers missed.
“Another Thunder counterattack, Westbrook rushed up and took the ball to the frontcourt.
Immediately hit the ground without looking at anyone, passing the ball to Durant's hands, catching the ball, jumping up, one step away from the three-point line, pulling up the ball, raising his hand to shoot a chasing three-point pull-up jumper …No, Durant changed his posture in the air, changed from shooting to throwing away the pot, the basketball flew to the left basket, Su Bei jumped to the basket, caught the ball, jumped up, and lobbed in the air..."
Swish——!
Eating the pie easily, Su Bei steadily scored 2 points.
4 to 9!
“The Suns are still too biased!
When you go on the court, you're going to get beaten. It's your choice, idol..."
There is no defensive attribute, so we can only wait.
What are you waiting for?
Waiting to die!
Either get beaten to death, or blow your opponent to death before your own touch reaches the sky.
A choice-one situation.
It's very similar to the future Warriors team that likes to play five small teams of death.
Defend first to death, then switch to attack to maximize your attributes and kill your opponent.
Obviously, in the first quarter of tonight's game, the Suns were not feeling online.
Seeing that the three-pointer was inaccurate, Nash changed his job and gave Gortat the ball inside, and shot a two-point jumper from close range...
Bang-dang——!
Still not, Gortat's offense was sent as well.
In fact, for HKC, Gortat's strength has reached its peak this season, averaging 15 points and 10 rebounds per game, but that is not a true reflection of his strength.
When Stoudemire leaves, there must be someone to fill the vacancy in the paint. With a different pig, Nash's numbers can skyrocket.
The Suns' offense inside and outside was completely useless.
However, on defense, it was another question of giving away points. Seeing that the game was about to fall to one side within a few minutes of the game.
Nash could only stand up, face the man, and fight with the bayonet.
"Nash broke through with the ball, dribbled under one step, retreated to the three-point line, and then shot a three-point pull-up jumper...
Swish——!
Yes, he finally hit the basket and stopped the bleeding in time. "
…
"It's Nash's breakthrough again, and he has to do it himself.
Hey, the Thunder are not used to him. Durant and Su Bei both pounced on Nash to flank him.
Snapped--!
With quick hands, Su Bei cut off the basketball, successfully backstabbed his former teammate, counterattacked with the ball, rushed to the frontcourt, and put the basketball into the basket with a civilian-style layup. "
…
When Nash himself was targeted by the Thunder's flanking defense, he could only pass the ball and assist with full points.
The Suns' offensive opportunity came out, but it's a pity that no matter how good the opportunity is, it is of no use if the teammates don't use it.
Bang-dang——!
Hill hit the iron with two points.
…
Bang-dang——!
The invisible Dudley tried a two-point jumper against Su Bei's block, and then played music and then hit the iron.
After the first quarter, the score was 34 to 22. The Thunder easily defeated the Suns and gained a 12-point lead.
Su Bei made 3 of 3 and 1 of 1 three-pointers. He played 7 minutes and scored 7 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
Westbrook made 4 of 6 free throws and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 10 points in a single quarter.
Durant made 2 of 4 free throws, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 5 points.
The Suns still couldn't find their shooting form in the first quarter. However, if they increase the pace of the game and increase the number of offensive rounds, they will naturally be able to get a decent score, but the point difference will increase by hundreds of millions of points.
Fortunately, the Suns did not panic. The rhythm of the game has increased and the number of offensive rounds has increased, which is equivalent to making the cake bigger.
It’s game time for the fourth quarter!
It will always be their turn to get the big cake, just let the bullets fly a little longer.
In the second quarter, rotation battle.
The Thunder have a rotation lineup of Perkins, Collison, Sefolosha, Harden, and Billups!
Damn it, you call the backcourt combination of Harden Billups + Sefolosha a rotation?
Moreover, Perkins and Collison are also starting-level inside players!
This...the gap is too big.
Nash is almost 38 years old, and he can't do anything anymore. He can only use the backcourt combination of Shannon Brown and Telfair, and match it with a few rookie players.
Telfair is a short guard with a height of 183cm, and Shannon Brown is a shooting guard with a height of 1.93m. They also have no physical advantage. Let’s not mention the offense. Defense is still a question.
The second quarter of the game started, and it was another crushing battle. Within two seconds of the game, the Suns were defeated.
However, Westbrook and Durant still need playing time to improve. Anyway, I don’t know whether they will improve their statistics. I just know that no matter whether the opponent is alive or dead, they will go on the field and do it when the time comes.
Young people, how can they rest?
35 to 24!
In an undefended confrontation, the Thunder widened the point difference to 11 points in the second quarter.
At the end of the first half, the score was 69 to 46. The Thunder had a 23-point lead and defeated the Suns at halftime, basically establishing the victory of the game.
In the second quarter, Jiangsu Subei only made 1 of 1 shots and scored 3 points. In addition to the 7 points in the first quarter, it was enough for 10 points. At the end of the first half, it was time to clock out. After all, it was the old club, so it was not easy to go there personally. slaughter.
Durant and Westbrook don't have this burden.
Moreover, this is the home court of the Thunder. Whether it is for the fans or for whatever reason, continue to beat me to death.
21 to 29!
In the third quarter, the Thunder only expanded by 8 points, widening the point difference to 31 points. The Thunder's best combination then clocked out.
The fourth quarter was just a formality.
Buzz—!
As the buzzers sounded, the light turned red, and the game time ended. The score was 117:97. The Thunder had a 20-point advantage, beating the Suns, extending the winning streak to 5 games, and continuing to top the league. .
Durant played 26 minutes, made 6 of 11, and scored 16 points, which reduced his competitiveness for the scoring title.
Westbrook played 25 minutes, made 8 of 14 shots, scored 18 points and 4 assists, achieving rare efficiency.
Su Bei played 10 minutes and scored 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, which was very respectable to his old club.
Nash made 4 of 10 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and scored 10 points and 6 assists. His performance was just okay.
Hill made 2 of 8 shots, 0 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 6 points and 1 rebound. He was just an ordinary role player. It was not surprising that the Suns were crushed.
After the battle with the Suns, 2011 became a thing of the past, and 2012 has arrived.
The first snow in 2012... No, the Thunder lost the first game.
Dallas, American Airlines Center.
Su Bei received his championship ring from the Mavericks. During the warm-up, he and his former teammates chatted for a few cents.
There was no going back from the beginning of the game. Kidd showed off his top-notch field control ability in the "base-no-attack" mode, firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, and had the Thunder tightly controlled. Throughout the game, Kidd only made 0 of 1 shots and posted 0 points, 9 assists and 5 rebounds.
So what if I get 0 points?
enough!
From the beginning, the Thunder failed to play a comfortable offensive rhythm and always worked in uncomfortable postures. How high can their firepower output be?
Durant made 10 of 21 shots and scored 27 points.
Westbrook made 8 of 20 shots and scored 18 points, 3 assists and 8 rebounds.
The Thunder's explosive combination failed to blow up their opponents, but instead injured one of their own.
Although Su Bei and Harden, a pair of young kings, one made 6 of 12 and scored 17 points, and the other scored 5 of 11 and scored 16 points, showing good supporting abilities, they still failed to save the game that was screwed up in terms of rhythm.
Billups was restrained by Kidd. Although he scored 10 points and 7 assists and had better scoring data than Kidd, Kidd can make his teammates perform more bravely.
Coupled with the fact that the Mavericks' jump shots were on the line tonight, the Thunder did not lose unfairly.
Nowitzki made 10 of 16 shots and scored 26 points and 7 rebounds. Marion made 8 of 17 shots and scored 17 points. Terry made 6 of 12 shots and scored 15 points. Carter made 3 of 8 shots and 8 of 9 free throws and scored 14 points. …
Seeing the familiar multi-point flowering again, everyone was on the same page. The Mavericks defeated the Thunder 102-95 with a 7-point advantage, ending the Thunder's 5-game winning streak.
In 2012, the Thunder got off to a bad start!
…
