NBA: Top 6D talents to start

From leading to 6 points behind, it is tantamount to giving the Suns a wave of offensive climax.

And during this period, Weidong, Durant, and Curry didn't miss a single shot. Stotts immediately called a timeout, and he wanted to rearrange his defensive tactics.

At the same time, this timeout is also used to disrupt the offensive rhythm of the Suns.

"Weidong and Curry mostly receive the ball from outside the three-point line, so when these two get the ball, Batum, you have to step forward to help defend,

Matthews, after Curry catches the ball, run around the baseline. Curry will choose to pass the ball to Durant when facing a double-team. If Aldridge loses his position defensively,
You will be able to make up the defense in time, Gortat, your defense is doing well, come on! "

Stotts didn't say what the players should do if Curry passes the ball to Weidong. In his opinion, if the ball is in Weidong's hands, it will be difficult to defend.

Before the game, Stotts talked to Gortat and Frye, because these two players won two consecutive championships with the team, and they can be said to be the players who know the Suns' style of play best. He also wanted to pass these two people. Find a way to deal with the Suns.

But what these two people and Stotts talked about were some of Gentry's conventional tactical arrangements.

Gortat doesn't need to talk about these tactics, and Stotts can also see it from the game video. As for some secret words of the Suns, Gortat and Frye didn't talk about them either.

Why are the Suns so strong?

The explanation given by Gortat is that Weidong is too strong!And there are Durant and Curry, the two right-hand men.

The performance of the role players is also remarkable. There are veterans like Carter and Tracy McGrady sitting on the bench. Although they have started to play healthy basketball, these two veterans can also stand up when the team needs it.

Pause back.

Aldridge received a pass from Matthews in the middle distance and made a shot!
Aldridge has a soft touch and a good mid-range shot. Although the comprehensiveness of his skills is incomparable to Durant, it cannot be denied that Aldridge is a very good player.

"It always feels a bit meaningless."

After Aldridge hit a mid-range shot, he looked at the palm of his hand, which was not the same as receiving a pass from Weidong.

Whether it is Matthews or Lillard, there are two situations in which these people pass the ball. One is that you are open, and the other is that they are defended and have to pass. But Weidong's pass is different. It is the overall view that penetrates the whole court. Weidong will deliver the ball accurately when you are ready to shoot.

After receiving Weidong's pass, you don't even need to adjust your shooting action, just shoot directly.

It’s no wonder that the Suns’ shooting percentage ranks first in the league. Aldridge only played teammates with Weidong briefly during the All-Star Weekend, which made Aldridge realize how big the gap is between ordinary point guards and top point guards. .

The Suns attack.

Weidong missed a mid-range shot, and Gortat once again received a defensive rebound.

Lillard received the ball, dribbled to the frontcourt, saw Batum ready to receive the ball in the corner, and passed the ball to Batum with a flick of his hand.

"Shh!!!"

Batum hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

27:28! ! !

The Blazers chased the point difference to only one point.

At 9 minutes into the first quarter, the Suns made substitution adjustments, allowing Weidong, Curry, and Durant, who had already played 9 minutes, to rest and replace Tucker, McGrady, and McCollum.

"Can I play?"

McCollum couldn't believe it when he heard Gentry play him.

He was a drinking fountain player in the Trail Blazers, and now he is on the stronger Suns team, so he can get playing time in the first quarter?
"Of course I can play!"

Gentry encouraged: "Go up and prove yourself."

"Thank you coach!"

"Thank you brother!"

It feels so good to be taken seriously, McCollum's heart seems to be blossoming, after this game, he must post a tweet!

"You're welcome~"

Weidong didn't know why McCollum wanted to thank him, but he still said:

"After you play, do a pick-and-roll for Uncle McGrady, and run to the corner quickly after the pick-and-roll."

"If McCollum is open in the corner, McGrady, you can pass the ball to him."

The first sentence is to McCollum, and the second sentence is to McGrady. Weidong knows the characteristics of McCollum. Adjust to find the most suitable shooting point.

The Suns have a pure bench lineup.

McGrady, Carter, Whiteside, Tucker, McCollum.

The Blazers dare not use a pure bench lineup to play the Suns' bench. Stotts just let Frye replace Aldridge, Lopez replaces Gortat, Williams replaces Matthews, as for Lillard and Barbara. Tom remained on the field.

戈塔特第一节的表现给了斯托特斯太多的惊喜，上场9分钟，得到6分7篮板2助攻1抢断1盖帽。

Perhaps it is also because Gortat is more familiar with the Suns, but whether he is familiar with it or not, the answer sheet given in the first quarter made Stotts feel that this deal is a big deal!

Substitutes come on.

McGrady dribbled the ball to the front court, and McCollum stepped forward to play a pick-and-roll for McGrady. After the pick-and-roll, McCollum quickly withdrew to the three-point corner.

McGrady also has a chance to pull up a jumper after the pick-and-roll.

But seeing that McCollum was completely emptied in the bottom corner, and remembering Weidong's entrustment, McGrady simply passed the ball to McCollum with a long pass.

After McCollum received the pass from McGrady, he jumped up immediately, adjusted some shooting postures in the air, and made a three-pointer.

"Shh!!!"

Basketball hollow into the net.

29:33! ! !

McCollum is still a first-year rookie, and he is a small transparent existence in the Trail Blazers. Even if he is traded to the Suns now, he is directly ignored by his former teammates.

Suddenly made a three-pointer, which surprised the Blazers players somewhat.

The Blazers attacked, and Lillard changed direction outside the three-point line and broke through Carter's defense.

But when he got inside for a layup, Whiteside stepped up and blocked Lillard's shot with a slap.

McGrady got the ball and dribbled to the frontcourt to organize the offense.

McCollum came up again to play a pick-and-roll for McGrady, and then ran to the corner of the three-pointer.

Exactly the same tactics!

McGrady passed the ball to McCollum again, and McCollum caught the ball and made a three-pointer!
"Shh!!!"

The basketball hits the net hollow again.

29:36! ! !

"What am I"

Stotts almost dropped the tactical board and yelled: "Don't miss people when defending!"

He was surprised, McCollum was not like this when he was in the Trail Blazers, why did he feel like a different person when he arrived at the Suns?
"Any player will become stronger when he is with Dong Ge."

Gortat muttered, he knew that the reason why McCollum suddenly became stronger was to play next to Weidong.
