Chapter 231 Victory over the Knights

Chapter 231 Victory over the Knights

The game started in the second quarter, and the two sides replaced the substitute players to play in rotation. Of course, the adjustment was not large. D'Antoni maintained his own style and ensured that at least three starters were on the court in order to continue the offensive firepower of the Suns.

Under the leadership of James, the Cavaliers also made targeted lineup adjustments and adapted to the situation.

Regardless of the fact that the Cavaliers lead by 5 points in the first quarter, Ilgauskas' statistics are good. In fact, the Cavaliers did not blow up the Suns' inside and outside lines. Only Nash was really blown up.

Even if the Suns change their defensive response and carry out a contraction attack, the Cavaliers will still attack Nash's defensive flaw, making the Suns' defense lose every step of the way.

If you only look at the data of the matchup, it is not impenetrable to say that the Suns' flank beat the Cavaliers' flank.

McGinnis is more comprehensive. This is what he said. In other words, it is not good. In fact, he is mediocre everywhere. He has been pressed on the bench in the Trail Blazers. It is not unreasonable. It is not that he has no chance to prove himself, but his strength It is the life of the sixth man, and only the Cavaliers will regard him as a treasure, thinking that he is a perfect match with James. He can handle the ball and shoot three-pointers. How could the victim be willing to let him go?

Facing Joe Johnson, an offensive master who can be called "Single Joe", McGinnis naturally couldn't please him.

Newbell is good at defense, but that's relative to the Cavaliers' lineup. He didn't make a name for himself in the NBA.

Small forwards have no offensive ability, how can they still play?Even if you learn from Bowen, you can just practice two corner three-point positions. However, Newbell can't practice it, and his defensive strength is not top-notch. Facing the hot Richardson, he can only parry and get beaten. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

Seeing that Richardson and Joe Johnson were in hot form, D'Antoni naturally asked them to play more. On the Cavaliers side, Paul Silas switched to defensive expert Snow and this year's rookie Luke Jackson to try the effect.

As a result, the two muskets of Joe Johnson and Richardson became more fierce, and the Cavaliers' flanks were defeated steadily.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Joe Johnson received the ball from Barbosa, outside the 75-degree three-point line on the right, received the ball in a three-threat posture, faced Snow's defense, feinted a shot, and immediately accelerated to break through to the inside , broke into the three-point line, pulled the ball to the hoop in three steps, bumped Snow's close defense with his shoulder, and made an emergency stop in the horn area to shoot a jumper.

Snow's top defense?But, that's how you're judged among point guards, and he's just resigned to defending a swingman.

If the opponent is in good form, it is common to be blown up. If the opponent is not in good form and it is his preferred defensive type, it will naturally shine in the audience.

However, in the face of Joe Johnson, a one-handed master with both skills, body and fiery state, he was directly blown away.

Joe Johnson frequently hit Snow in singles.

Richardson on the left side did not stop scoring. Facing rookie Luke Jackson, Richardson played more easily. Before he exerted much strength, the opponent fell down. abuse opponents.

Luke Jackson didn't have any outstanding achievements in the NCAA competition. He was selected by the high pick, which was a big upset. The Cavaliers obviously wanted to bet on the opponent's physical talent.

However, for players who can enter the NBA, no matter how poor their physical talent is, it is only relatively speaking. Richardson's physical fitness is naturally not bad, and he has honed mature offensive skills. Not surprisingly.

Paul Silas' surprise tactics did not achieve the desired effect, but fueled the arrogance of the Suns, allowing the Suns to play an offensive situation with two guns shining.

With Lin Bai and Barbosa as substitutes, there were occasional sporadic gunfire.

The Cavaliers can only slow down as much as possible, delay the offensive rhythm, shrink the inside line, and start from defense.

Fortunately, when the Suns' outside firepower was in full bloom, they tried to pass the ball to the inside and play a combination of inside and outside, but Stoudemire and Marion were unable to play for a long time, so that the Suns' offensive firepower did not really take off.

Even so, after halftime, the Suns still overtook the Cavaliers by 48 points with a score of 46 to 2, and entered the locker room to rest.

After the break, the game came back in the second half, and the two sides changed sides to fight again.

As soon as the third quarter started, Stoudemire and Nash played a wonderful pick-and-roll cooperation.

Nash was double-teamed by Ilgauskas and James, and with a snap, he sent a wonderful ground pass, and the basketball accurately passed the defense of James and Ilgauskas. Passed through the gap and fell comfortably into Stoudemire's hands.

With a loud bang, Stoudemire took the ball and took a step forward, smashed the basketball into the basket with a tomahawk-style one-handed dunk, and relieved the sulking tonight.

Afterwards, Stoudemire was like a master who opened up Ren Du's second line.

Under Nash's exquisite delivery of ammunition, whether it's a high-post show, or a basket, or even a low-post single, or a pass with a flash of inspiration, it's like a flower, and it's easy to come by. Still facing Ilgauskas heads-up, almost one-on-one, playing like a superstar.

In particular, Stoudemire is still a master at mobilizing the atmosphere on the court. His offense, even if it is just a small open catch and mid-range shot, can play out the domineering momentum like a landslide and tsunami, which can be seen by the fans outside the court. Audience, that's a blood boil!

Applause like torrential rain, like rain hitting plantains, fell one after another, and thunderous cheers and cheers were also overwhelming, crashing down.

Playing in such an atmosphere, Nash also opened up, with Stoudemire's powerful firepower attracting the opponent's defensive energy.

Nash's sudden three-pointer, followed by the Cavaliers' archery after the breakthrough, and the two-pointer's sudden stop and mid-range shot, also frequently blossomed and borne fruit.

Don't forget that Nash also has an unparalleled extraordinary ability, rushing to the inside and tearing through the Cavaliers' defense with Stoudemire. Nash can calmly transport ammunition and let the outside offensive firepower also ignite.

After Nash's go-between and Stoudemire scored 24 points together, the Suns played a violent offensive and beat the Cavaliers 38 to 24 in the third quarter, pulling the score to 16 points in one fell swoop. The Cavaliers want to make a comeback, but it is almost negligible!

The faces of the players and coaching staff of the Suns are all smiles, and the overall situation of this game is determined.

Someone is responsible for happiness, and someone is responsible for sadness!

The Cavaliers' face was gloomy, and there was no joy.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Lin Bai hit a three-pointer from the three-point line, which made the Cavaliers' shrinking defense less firm. After all, the Suns' outside firepower had been burning hot in the first half, and then shrink If it is not, it will become a joke and will be directly shot to death by the Suns' CIC.

As a result, as soon as the Cavaliers' defense expanded, they were attacked more violently.

Stoudemire's sudden outbreak of this point caused the Cavaliers to be in chaos before the formation, and the defense fell short of Guppy.

When the Cavaliers stabilized again, they found that the score was already more than ten points behind the Suns. If they wanted to recover the score, it was impossible to win the game by slowly suppressing the offensive rhythm and playing positional battles with the Suns. !

Therefore, the head coach of the Cavaliers, Paul Silas, waved his hand and decided to compete with the Suns on offense.

Speed ​​up and fight against each other! !

The Cavaliers also speeded up and wanted to attack, but they were directly defeated by the violent offensive firepower of the Suns. They had a headache and were directly defeated.

It's really one step behind!

Originally, they had the upper hand, but they were turned around abruptly by the powerful offensive firepower of the Suns.

The game started in the fourth quarter, and both sides played against each other tacitly.

The starting players were replaced one by one, and the substitutes were replaced one by one to play, and the whistle began to stop.

In the substitute game, the Suns' offense was merciless. No one was relentless, trying desperately to express themselves. The Suns' offensive firepower remained undiminished, and they still blasted a score of 34 to 28.

Among them, Barbosa scored 12 hits alone, and Lin Bai also hit two three-pointers and a free throw, scoring 7 points.

At the end of the game, the Phoenix Suns beat the Cleveland Cavaliers by 120 to 101 at home by 19 points and won a wave of 5 consecutive victories.
