Chapter 345 Winning the first away game

In the first quarter, not only failed to lead the Spurs by a big score as expected, but fell behind by a few points. The Suns went up to the coaching staff, down to the players, and the fans at the scene were a bit unacceptable. I feel how good the Spurs' defense is, why is the Spurs leading.

They can't accept that a team can lead the Spurs on offense alone. In fact, they have overestimated their own offense. The offense of the Suns is indeed extremely sharp. The scoring average is the best in the league, but it doesn't mean They are always ahead of their opponents, so they don't lose games anymore.

What they didn't expect was that the Spurs played against them so slowly, and the Spurs won. The attack power is not too strong.

Before they figured it out, the game started in the second quarter. The Suns were still led by Nash. Stoudemire, Marion, and Lagabel were still on the court, but Diaw was replaced. Kurt Thomas, the Suns intended to raise the tempo of the game again, caught the Spurs off the bench by surprise.

The Spurs' lineup is also different from before. The opponent does not have a pure center. It is a bit wasteful to use a big man like Elson, and his speed can't keep up with the opponent's pace. There is a lineup of Robert Horry, Stephen, Brent Barry, Ginobili, and Udic.

In this way, the change of the Spurs is more thorough than that of the Suns. Although Dior is not tall enough, he is still an authentic inside player. To improve the rhythm of the game, we are more straightforward than you, just don't want the center position.

When the main lineup was on the court, the Spurs didn't use their own defense to attack the Suns. The defense was not as good as the main lineup's substitute. **Vichick simply gave up the defense. Anyway, the defense effect was not very good , might as well attack directly.

In this lineup, Robert Horry is capable of both inside and outside, and also has the ability to support with one hand, while Stephen is also capable of both inside and outside, and can also pass a good ball. Brent Barry and Ginobili have the same comprehensive technical characteristics. Although this lineup doesn't have any well-formed tactics, the fluency of the game is not lost to the Suns.

What the Suns are most worried about is Stephen's explosion in the second quarter, because whenever Stephen basically doesn't shoot in the first quarter, he is saving energy for the second quarter, and as soon as the second quarter starts, their worry is It was fulfilled.

Stephen made a pick-and-roll with Robert Horry, drove straight to the basket, and Stoudemire blocked it in a hurry, but Stephen stood still, pushed Stoudemire away with strength under the basket, and then slammed Dunk the ball into the hoop.

Looking at the same skin color, Stoudemire felt as if he had met a dwarfed version of Yao Ming. Why is this guy so short in stature but so powerful, and his feet are so solid that he can easily squeeze him? He squeezed himself aside, last season he rested for nearly a season, the two of them didn't meet, and this season Stephen was suspended for nearly half a season, he didn't know much about Stephen.

Under normal circumstances, people with good jumps are not very solid, but there are exceptions. This is the case with Stephen. If you want to bully Yao Ming and O'Neal at the basket with the strength of your feet alone, Stephen I really don't have that kind of strength, but the strength is a little bit stronger. Players like Chris Kaman, Bogut, and Kwame Brown can't be said to easily push them away, but against Stoudemire. Type, Stephen will not be polite.

After coming back, Nash had the same pick-and-roll as Stoudemire. The difference was that Stoudemire came up and then cut back. Nash's half-high ball came in an instant. For Stoudemire, he wanted All you do is catch the ball and put it in the hoop.

There is nothing easier than this. For Stoudemire, his daily work is so simple. Although he has undergone surgery on both knees separately, he does not have the explosive power of the storm in the past, but the dunk For him, it was still as simple as eating and drinking.

Stephen jumped up, but Nash's pass was too elusive. By the time Stephen reacted, it was already a bit late. Although his body's natural reaction made him jump into the air, he didn't rush to reach out because the opponent had already started , all you have to do is reach out and it's a foul.

After Stoudemire dunked, he waved his arms and roared, which is the origin of his nickname, although after he returned from injury, such a performance disappeared in the American Airlines Center arena. But as he got more and more used to his current body and got rid of the shadow of injury in his heart, he gradually regained his former overlord's true colors.

Although the Spurs' offensive rhythm is fast, it is not messy. The ball starts from Udic's hands, passes through Ginobili's cross, and arrives in the hands of Robert Horry. Ready to beat Dior, no one believed he could succeed, but he attracted everyone's attention.

At this moment, the ball was suddenly released from his hand and flew beyond the three-point line. At some point, Stephen was already standing there, quietly waiting to catch the ball. The ball flew into Stephen's hand, as if it had only touched It flew out again and flew into the basket.

It was still the pick-and-roll between Nash and Stoudemire. After the pick-and-roll, Nash used the gap between the square inches to jump in the air with his legs spread apart, and the ball flew into the basket with a shake of his hands. The Spurs replaced it this time. Stephen hit hard, and after hitting the basket, the ball suddenly flew out from under Stephen's flanks and flew into the hands of Robert Horry, who was almost standing in the same shot position as Stephen just now, and Robert Horry also made a three-pointer.

With an advantage of [-] points, as Lagabel missed a three-pointer, the Suns' scoring rhythm seemed to be interrupted. Although the Spurs also made mistakes in their offense, Stephen was in the middle of the Spurs. Lyon completed the counter-grab in his hands and assisted Ginobili to score a layup.

D'Antoni couldn't sit still for the Suns. He stood up and called a 20-second timeout. The score gap widened to thirteen points, which was unbearable.

But after coming back, the Suns' offense still missed, although the Spurs also missed. Seeing that his teammates couldn't score, Nash had no choice but to stand up again and hit a three-pointer, chasing the score to [-] points, but after returning Ginobili scored two points for a layup after a breakthrough.

The [-]-point gap is like an insurmountable natural barrier, which has always prevented the Suns from crossing. No matter how hard the Suns try, no matter how close they are to the score, the Spurs' offense will always guarantee scoring at critical moments, making it impossible for them to cross. .

In this section, Stephen made three three-pointers, Ginobili made one, and Robert Horry made two. With three-pointers alone, the Spurs scored 32 points. The scoring advantage of 26 to [-] in the quarter also made everyone unexpected.

It is understandable to say that the Suns lost to the Spurs' main lineup by a few points, but this side is basically all the main lineup, and the other side is the opponent's substitute lineup. The Suns still lost by a few points, which is incomprehensible , Is this still the Suns team with the second record in the league?

But looking at the exhaustion of Nash, Stoudemire, Marion and others, D'Antoni can't say much. The players have tried their best, but the opponent feels better. They have done what they can. Yes, but who told the other party to have a Stephen.

In this section of the game, Stephen scored 25 points alone. In halftime, Stephen had already scored [-] points. For many players, this is the score they can only get after a game and try their best. , but for Stephen, it was just a simple and easy way to get it.

In the second half, none of Nash, Marion, and Stoudemire appeared on the court. With Barbosa, James Jones, Kurt Thomas and others alone, how could they be the opponents of the Spurs? Sa's personality broke out and made three three-pointers. The Suns were almost widened by the Spurs to more than [-] points.

In the second half of the third quarter, the Suns switched their main players to the field, but Lagabel was replaced by Barbosa, and then the Suns launched a fierce attack when all the main players of the Spurs were not on the court. The defense line is precarious, and it looks like it may collapse at any time.

But Ginobili led Elson, Robert Horry, Bruce Bowen and others just persisted. Although the score was approached by the Suns to [-] points, the third quarter also ended, allowing the Spurs to take the lead. Leading into the fourth quarter is a disaster for any team.

The Spurs are the best team in the league to play the fourth quarter, and they are also the team best at leading the ball. Unless they encounter a performance like McGrady's 35 seconds and [-] points, otherwise, the [-]-point advantage , In one quarter, few teams can take it from the Spurs.

And the ending is the same. No matter how fierce the Suns' offensive is, they just can't penetrate the Spurs' defense. At the same time, he didn't give up on his own offense. Stephen only scored nine points in this quarter, which was already the highest score in the game.

Nash also scored 28 points in this quarter, increasing his own score to 110 points, and also sent out [-] assists, but he still couldn't let the team win. Duncan also scored in this quarter. Twelve points, [-] points, [-] rebounds and [-] assists in this game. In the end, the Suns lost their first home game [-]-[-].
