Chapter 314 Battle King
On February 2005, 2, at 5:8 in the evening, the Phoenix Suns played at the home court of the American West Arena and faced the New York Knicks who came to challenge.
Marbury challenged his old club and was very desperate. He played very strongly in the first quarter, holding the ball in the middle and hitting Nash, the current player of the Suns.
Marbury showed the home fans that he has a sharp breakthrough, and scoring points is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables. He made 6 of 3 shots in a single quarter, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 6 of 5 free throws, 12 points and 3 assists. Looking at the matchup data between him and Nash, Nash was directly blown by Marbury, and Nash only scored 4 points and 4 assists.
However, the Suns led by Nash took the lead in the score.
33 to 30! !
Although Nash's personal data lags behind, he organized the Suns' offense in an orderly manner.
On the surface, he was blown up by Marbury, but in fact it just proved that the two point guards have different styles of play.
Marbury has a relatively unique style of play, with scoring as the first choice and assists as the second choice.
Nash is just the opposite. He takes assists as his first choice, and he usually scores when his teammates can't open the situation.
In the second quarter, Nash took a rest. Sure enough, the Suns' offense was messed up. Under Barbosa's ball control organization, the Suns' offensive firepower was directly misfired. Richardson and Joe Johnson's three-point shots frequently missed. Inefficiently scored 20 points in a single quarter.
Under Ariza's outburst, the Knicks actually faintly suppressed the Suns, scored 26 points in the second quarter, and overtook the comparison between the two sides.
In the third quarter, Marbury continued to play, playing like a superstar, and still scored 10 points in a single quarter, leading the Knicks to press down on the Suns, and slowly opened the score by 28 to 27.
The Suns still can't open the outside line. Only relying on the joint performance of Marion and Stoudemire can the Suns not fall behind too much.
In the final battle of the fourth quarter, Marbury was also in good condition. He made 5 of 4 shots, scored 9 points and 2 assists. In the whole game, he made 21 of 14 shots, 4 of 2 three-pointers, 10 of 9 free throws, and blasted 39 points and 8 assists. 5 rebounds, grabbing dazzling personal data, showing the true qualities of a superstar.
However, the Knicks lost!
Marbury has a feeling of being alone. Although he has exerted all his strength, he still can't drive this Knicks team.
Ariza was a rookie in 2004, and his performance was not stable. With his excellent physical talent, he performed very well on defense, but he was hard to say on offense.
Sometimes he seems to be a superstar, no matter how he shoots three-pointers and two-pointers, sometimes he is desperate, and he can miss shots from close range. He is really a genius.
Thomas can grab an eye-catching 21 points playing power forward, but not many points, only 4 points.
Muhammad made 10 of 5 shots, 10 points and 8 rebounds. He played healthy basketball very well.
Crawford could have been the X factor for the Knicks to win. However, putting him on the starting shooting guard seems almost meaningless.
Perhaps the best sixth talent is the most suitable stage for him.
Marbury left the Suns and went to the Knicks where he wanted to go. He didn't have a half-hearted attachment to the Suns. Now look at the Knicks' starting five. Except for himself, the other four are not the Suns' starting five at all. Tiger's opponent.
The Suns start with the Five Tigers, Richardson and Joe Johnson can misfire, however, the Suns always have stars who stand up and lead the team forward.
In the fourth quarter, Nash changed his playing style in the first three quarters, and began to frequently play pick-and-rolls with Stoudemire, and then scored points by himself.
When the Knicks flanked Nash, his supporting pass allowed the Suns to score continuously.
In the fourth quarter, Nash of the Suns went through the needle and played an offensive offensive of all people. With a wave of offensive firepower, they defeated the Knicks and reversed the final result of the game.
At the end of the game, the Phoenix Suns defeated the visiting Knicks 117-109 at home and won a wave of two consecutive victories.
After defeating the New York Knicks, the Phoenix Suns still have a record of 38 wins and 11 losses, 1.5 games behind the San Antonio Spurs, ranking second in the league.
Next, the Suns will fly to Sacramento for an away game against the Sacramento Kings.
The Sacramento Kings did not start this season well. Two stars, Webber and Stojakovic, had a dispute over the ball. The departure of Divac made the Kings uncomfortable. The first five games only achieved 1 win and 4 losses. Bottom record.
However, next, the Kings played the demeanor of a strong contender for the regular season championship, and their record soared rapidly. Currently, with a record of 32 wins and 15 losses, they rank fourth in the Western Conference and fifth in the league.
The momentum of catching up with anyone else made his opponent feel chills.
Before the game, media reporters were very optimistic about the Sacramento Kings defeating the Phoenix Suns. After all, the Kings played at home, with a clear advantage and a good state.
However, the Phoenix Suns have a strong confrontation, and the attribute of always losing has not changed by half a point, but it has become more and more obvious, and the recent state is also unstable.
It is not easy for the Suns to defeat the championship-level Kings.
On February 2005, 2, at 8 o'clock in the evening, the Phoenix Suns will play against the Sacramento Kings.
While the players were warming up, on the commentary stand, Barkley glanced at the starting lineups of both sides, and began to analyze: "The Kings are a dramatic team this season. Internal strife, I thought it would be separated and analyzed, but I didn't expect it to be able to kill a carbine.
However, the Kings regular season is very competitive and full of momentum, but what!In the season game, they lost the qualification to compete for the championship, because the team lost all their capital.
If you just look at their starting roster, they are very competitive. The starting point guard is Mike Bibby.The shooting guard is no longer Doug Christie, who was sent to the Magic.He was replaced by Cutino Mobley. After switching from the Magic, he played well. Currently, he can average 18.6 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. He is much better offensively than Christie, but he is a bit old and nicknamed "Old Cat" '.Small forward Peja Stojakovic, power forward Chris Webber, center Brad Miller.
The golden generation of the Kings is gradually leaving, and only the four starters are left. Their starters are still strong, but the bench has become strange.
Without the former bench gangsters, not to mention Turkoglu, Gerald Wallace, Pollard and other players, even Bobby Jackson, the former sixth man, is gone. "
Kenny Smith nodded, took over the topic and said: "The Kings have a feeling of going from the peak to the end. In recent years, their players have lost too much blood. They only rely on Princeton's tactical system to support their results. They can't go far. .
However, their starting five tigers are very bluffing.It is not much different from the starting five of the Suns, and even has the upper hand. The starting five of the Suns are very fixed. They are still point guard Steve Nash, shooting guard Joe Johnson, and small forward Quentin Richardson. , power forward Sean Marion, center Amare Stoudemire.
The starting five of the two players are very strong, but the strength of the substitute is very weak. They both have the strength to compete for the regular season championship. The concept of winning the game is to attack and win. The next matchup will definitely be a spark hitting the earth. Offensive feast, let us wait and see! ! "
