Rest for 15 minutes and come back for the second half of the game.
The main players of both sides continue to fight.
The Suns had the offensive ball, and Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt and chose to play a pick-and-roll tactic with Scola.
Then, the basketball was given to Scola, and then Paul was called on to hit Paul with a precise mid-range two-pointer and a steady hit.
Swish——!
“Yes!!
The Suns' offense is really tough!
Of course, Paul 183's destiny also gives him face. It cannot be said to be exactly the same as being undefended, but it can only be said to be very similar.
The Suns can continue to name Paul, but you have no right..."
65 to 61! !
The score difference became 4 points.
The suspense of the game is not over.
No problem, Paul, an old 6, is targeted because of his height. It is difficult to kill his opponent by just relying on offense.
Fortunately, the Lakers did not panic.
Let the bullets fly a little longer!
If you let each other hurt each other and continue, it will depend on which one of you will collapse first, or his 183-day negative will come to naught first.
Looking back, Paul took the ball to the frontcourt, continued his normal operation, and swung the basketball to Gasol who was pulled up high.
The starting point of the triangle offense is Gasol and Jordan Hill. This pair of inside moves shuffles and exchanges the opposing inside players.
At this time, Gasol faced Scola, and the advantage was on the Lakers' side.
One-on-one, it becomes efficient!
However, although Scola also has a vulnerability that can be attacked, the first choice is still Nash.
Nash is not only a defensive flaw, he is also the offensive brain of the Suns.
Spending as much as possible on both offense and defense is the most reasonable tactic.
"Paul did not cut inside, but chose to cut outside, and then he and Su Bei shifted positions to send Nash's defense in front of Su Bei.
Gasol took advantage of the situation and smashed the damn basketball over. Su Bei caught the ball, raised it, raised his hand, and shot a pull-up three-point jumper without making any adjustments..."
Nash is still very active in rushing to interfere.
real!
He works hard and his defensive skills are very good, but there are no tricks.
Since he is not physically gifted enough, he can only hope that Su Bei will cum, but he will only linger outside.
Swish——!
The three-pointer hit the net.
Su Bei didn't hesitate to be satisfied, but pushed straight in.
Nash can only lie flat!
“Great three-point shot!!
Not only is Su Bei's three-pointers too strong, but Nash's defense is also very impressive.
The three-point shooting opportunities like training are so good.
This ball is not very lethal, but it is extremely insulting!
Moreover, for the Lakers, it is still an insulting and refreshing experience. It continues to be insulting and continues to be a satisfying experience..."
Nash's face was pale, as if he was forewarned about life and death.
The score is 68 to 61! !
Only 7 points behind, two three-pointers, and one two-pointer can achieve a comeback.
Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt and made calculations.
Defense doesn't matter anymore!
He doesn't care about the Lakers scoring, because as long as the Suns score more, the victory is his.
No matter how many knives were slashed on him... no, how many points were scored, they would all become empty slashes.
"Nash dribbled the ball with his right hand, and raised his fingers with his left hand to signal, as if he was planning a tactic.
Hey, if Gorta moves to the high post, do you still need to use pick-and-roll tactics?
OMG!
Nash suddenly jumped up with the ball, raised his hand and hit a three-point pull-up jumper in return..."
It's a tactical move, it's just a feint!
Paul was too taken aback by this sneak attack. He didn't expect Nash to be ungrateful.
A point guard whose first choice was assisting suddenly pulled out and shot. Paul had no choice but to bet that Nash's three-point pistol had no bullets.
Swish——!
Wrong guess, Nash's three-point pistol has bullets in it.
Nash's current career three-point shooting percentage is as high as 43%, and he was able to shoot 42.6% last season, which is an average level, and it is still among the top in history.
Although the number of shots is getting less and less, in terms of accuracy, it is really powerful.
“Very nice counterattack!!
Nash will also be very angry, and the consequences will be serious!
The constant roll call is really annoying. Nash is not a machine. He really needs to fight back offensively to teach the Lakers that we are not easy to mess with..."
68 to 64! !
There are two goals left, a three-pointer + a two-pointer, to take the lead.
After Nash scores a goal, he immediately makes calculations and then focuses on defense.
But Paul didn't like him. He took the ball to the frontcourt and chose to go on his own.
"Going in, Paul charged forward, changed direction, then changed direction, and it was a direct physical confrontation.
Sure enough, Nash's defense was broken, Paul broke through to the end, and then shot..."
Boom, swish—!
Paul penetrated the Suns' defense, hit the rebound under the basket, and sent the damn basketball into the basket for two points.
“Paul is so strong!
Of course, this is the Suns!
There really is no bottom line for defense, and their bottom line is all pinned on offense..."
70 to 64! !
Off the court, Gentry was lost in thought.
Attack can indeed win popularity. Without defense, why does it feel so unreliable?
However, it doesn’t matter anymore!
The Suns once tried to change their way of life, play tough basketball, slow down the pace, and introduce super centers.
But without exception, they all failed.
None of them fit the Suns channel.
It's like an AM or an FM cannot accommodate each other.
In the next game, the situation is still between you and me. No one can do anything about the opponent's attack.
The Lakers were not in a hurry, and continued to play music anyway, and then named Nash. The advantage and the direction of the game were all on the Lakers' side.
The Lakers are not in a hurry, and neither are the Suns.
Anyway, it is impossible to defend. We can only hope that the offense can explode, and use more violent attacks to take away the game. This 'state' is in deep water, it is difficult to grasp, and we don't know when it will come. Maybe tonight is impossible to come, but there is always a dream, what if it comes?
Seven minutes into the third quarter, the Suns were not in the offensive state they wanted, but Nash was the first to be unable to withstand it and was out of form.
No problem, he is already 38 years old.
You have to organize the offense, and you have to be called on the defense. It is very tiring and consumes a lot, and there really is not much left in the body.
Gentry replaced Nash with Beasley, and Dragic served as the brains.
Not to mention, Dragic still has something.
In 2008, he was selected by the Suns as Nash's successor, trained for two years, then released, and then re-signed, basically following the path Nash took.
At that time, Nash practiced for 4 years, and only in the fifth year did he show the level of an All-Star point guard.
Dragic has also been practicing for 4 years, and now it is his 5th year. It is time.
“Dragic took the ball and immediately called for a pick-and-roll.
Gasol changed defense, and after a moment of hesitation, Dragic burst in, chased Gasol, got to the basket, and hit the ball with a rebound..."
Boom, swish—!
Dragic is not as good as Nash in terms of spirituality, but he is more aggressive in terms of aggression.
His confrontation is stronger.
As a draft template for Mike Bibby, his physical talent is stronger than Nash.
However, it’s no use!
His opposite number, Chris Paul.
One-on-one, the cut after passing the lob to Gasol was still able to tear through the Suns' defense and put the damn basketball into the basket.
The Suns' poor defense is not a one-person problem.
Under the avalanche, not a single piece of snow was innocent.
The situation of the game is still that you can't guard me, I can't guard you, and no one can understand defense.
In the third quarter, the two sides were basically evenly matched. The Lakers beat the Suns with a score of 30 to 28, only leading by one goal.
At the end of the first three quarters, the score was 95 to 87. The difference between the two sides became 8 points, leaving the suspense of the game to the fourth quarter.
…
"Jamison lurked in the left corner, received Blake's pass, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper...
Swish——!
pretty! !
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Lakers started with a three-pointer. "
…
"T-Mac is holding the ball and playing one-on-one, and Beasley is watching the defense.
OMG!
What kind of operation is this? Are the eyes defensive?
Even the aging McGrady couldn't guard him, allowing McGrady to rush to the free throw line, then shoot, and he scored.
Swish——!
A very elegant pull-up two-point hit!
McGrady still has gas in the tank. If you underestimate McGrady, you will get a head-on blow.
The Lakers' offense went on and on.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, in a short rotation battle, the advantage still lies with the Lakers, and the offense is unstoppable..."
…
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
…
The Lakers' offense continued, and with Jamison and McGrady, they continued to be full of firepower.
The Suns' rotation players could only go so far, and they couldn't maintain their offensive firepower. They were beaten 5-0 in an instant, and the point difference became 13 points.
For an undefended team, this is basically a point difference that is almost impossible to reverse.
A two-point goal was 7 goals short, and even a 3-point goal was 4 goals short.
Rounding up, the Suns had to defend the Lakers 5 times in the fourth quarter.
Defense is a problem for the Suns.
It’s too difficult, they can’t do it!
The Suns' main starting lineup did not lose. Unexpectedly, they rotated the lineup, but lost the game with fast shots.
No way, the Suns can only shoot three-pointers in Huashan.
However, as if anticipating the Suns' move, the Lakers began to guard against three-point shots.
In the 2010/11 season, Dragic averaged an incredible 51% three-point shooting percentage per game.
But soon, in the 2011/12 season, it dropped to 36%.
This season is even worse, only 32%.
Now three-point shooting is targeted, and Dragic's one-on-one ability is not very good. You can use pick-and-roll tactics when shooting two points, but it is difficult to implement pick-and-roll tactics when shooting three-pointers.
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
Dragic made two pull-ups from Paul, trying to teach Paul's 183-year-old three-point shot. The opportunity came, but the three-point shot was useless. Two consecutive three-point shots missed.
It is impossible for Scola and Gortat to shoot three-pointers, and it is absolutely impossible for them to kill the game.
With no choice, Gentry could only place his hope on Beasley.
However, Su Bei used death to wrap up the ball, making it difficult for Beasley to catch the ball. Not to mention that Beasley is very capable in one-on-one situations, but his three-point offense is actually just okay, and he can't kill the game.
“In the end, I can only go to Nash!
Nash is indeed the Suns' most accurate three-point shooting point. Letting him play without the ball can save time and effort, and he can focus on the three-point offense.
It's a pity that Nash's offensive attributes are full, but his defensive attributes are only motivated and nothing.
So what if he makes five three-pointers in a row?
Defense is a matter of scoring points. In the end, it’s not Nash but loneliness...”
Buzz—!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.
The score was 124 to 109. The Lakers defeated the Suns with a 15-point advantage, extending their winning streak to 7 games. Their first-place advantage is very strong.
Kobe made 10 of 17 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 7 of 8 free throws, and scored 30 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds. His performance was just okay.
After all, it was Kobe, and nothing about his performance was unusual.
Paul made 7 of 12 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 20 points, 14 assists, and 4 rebounds. His performance was mediocre. There is nothing commendable about the data scored by the 38-year-old Nash. After all, getting high The score is as it should be.
Once upon a time, the little-known god of death, Smush Parker, was known as the worst point guard in the entire league. Kobe Bryant called him a true CBA teammate, and he was able to produce All-Star statistics when facing Nash.
It is not surprising that Su Bei made 11 of 19 shots, 8 of 12 three-pointers, and 5 of 5 free throws. He scored 35 points, 4 assists, and 6 rebounds.
It's really not a performance of strength to rely solely on Nash's defensive support.
Nash made 9 of 15 shots, 4 of 7 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 25 points, 11 assists and 3 rebounds. His offensive performance was not bad, but he did not win the game and lost too many points on defense. Offense + defense, that is It's a negative number.
Dragic made 9 of 17 shots, 3 of 6 three-pointers, 1 of 3 free throws, and scored 22 points, 5 assists, and 3 rebounds. His performance was very good, but it had nothing to do with winning or losing the game, and he was lonely.
Scola made 9 of 15 shots and scored 18 points and 8 rebounds.
The star quality is not good enough, and he only walks on one foot. The Suns did not lose unfairly.
…
Defeating the Suns, the Lakers flew back to Los Angeles.
The next game day will be played at his home stadium, the Staples Center Arena.
The next opponent will be the battle for the top spot in the regular season, facing the Spurs with 6 wins and 1 loss.
The Lakers have three days to rest.
On the first day, a day off was directly announced.
The next day, conduct targeted training.
In fact, there is nothing to target.
To have Kobe is to have the Spurs' nemesis.
Together with the GDP combination, it is already 100 years old, and it is difficult for the Spurs to threaten the Lakers.
Although the Spurs have changed their tactics, it is more like returning to the past and making a final splash.
Time flies, and November 16th arrives in a blink of an eye.
Staples Center Arena.
Night falls.
At this time, the home court of the Lakers will usher in the battle with the Spurs for the top spot. The lights are bright and there is a sea of people.
During the warm-up, Kobe and Duncan chatted about a few cents.
For a group of paralyzed people, a low greeting from Kobe is enough.
Su Bei quietly warmed up by shooting shots and did not join in the fun.
At this time, the starting lineups of both sides for tonight's match were also displayed on the big screen in the arena.
The Spurs' starting five are Splitter, Duncan, Leonard, Danny Green, and Tony Parker.
The Lakers' starting five are Gasol, Jordan Hill, Su Bei, Kobe and Paul.
This game was broadcast live on TNT radio. Barkley partnered with Kenny Smith and invited O'Neal to form a commentary team.
"Shaq, if you had to guess which team would win, which one would you want to win the game?"
"The Lakers' new F4 lineup is very strong, it reminds me of 2004.
Moreover, compared to 2004, this Lakers team seems more united now.
Back then, Kobe and I basically played our own games without passing the ball to each other, and we still made it to the finals.
Therefore, I am more optimistic about the Spurs!
They play as a team, like the Pistons in 2004.
Well, the opposite of the Pistons!
This is an offensive team, something the Lakers don't have yet.
No matter how good their cards are, they only stay on their cards, which is different from the Spurs who have been polishing their game for a season. "
