Chapter 131 131. Nash Shows His Power!

Although Nash is old, shooting is still scary, especially for Dragic, who is a substitute for Nash. Seeing that Nash used Liu Ren to break through, Dragic quickly shrinks and prepares to double-team with PJ-Tucker nash.

But Nash suddenly took a step back and returned to the three-point line to shoot!
hit!

Nash scored 5 points in a row!
The fans at the scene once again cheered for Nash. In this game, the Sun fans would rather their home team lose, but also want to see Nash's wonderful performance.

Originally, after the 2010 playoffs, Suns fans hated the Lakers, after all, that time the Lakers ruined their way to the Finals.

But when the Lakers traded Nash and wanted to help Nash fulfill his championship dream, the Suns became a lot more friendly to the Lakers, especially now that the Lakers are so high ranked, the Suns are at most a playoff contender. Winning or losing the game is not important at all, and more attention is paid to Nash's performance.

Liu Ren subconsciously paid attention to the beauty on the long side, and found that the beauty was unmoved by Nash's goal.

"Damn it! Has the cabbage been bullied by pigs? Is such a beautiful woman really the concubine of those two brothers who look the same? What kind of vision is this!" Liu Ren violated the possessive desire that a normal man should have, whether it is All beauties who are not related to him will slander her.

But then Liu Ren felt as if he wanted to go wrong.

The Suns attacked, and Dragic fully learned the lesson of being defended by Liu Ren as a blacksmith in the previous game. After halftime, he asked Morris to pick and roll, and it was a double pick and roll.

It's just that this time Gasol made up the defense in time and blocked the first pick-and-roll Morris. In fact, Gasol also had to pay part of the responsibility for the Suns' successful offense last time. Originally, he was the one who defended Morris, but he Did not make up the defense, giving the opponent a chance to rush directly to the basket.

This time Gasol blocked a Morris, and Liu Ren immediately circled behind the second Morris after being blocked by the second Morris. Dragic was forced to stop the ball on the edge of the three-second zone!
The two centers of the Lakers Thackeray and Whiteside both have a good habit of not taking off easily when defending the outside line under the basket.

Whiteside's judgment on the opponent's shots is very accurate, so there are many blocks.

Thackeray is worse than Whiteside, but he would rather not block the shot than be shaken by the opponent and not give the opponent a chance to foul!

Not to mention that Thackeray's big man is really so bluffing, it puts huge pressure on Dragic, and Dragic just stops there with the ball in both hands and looks around, looking for opportunities to pass the ball.

Gerald Green was clung to by McCollum, and the pass was almost always intercepted.

I have to say that this group of young Lakers players are really hardworking. Even if D'Antoni doesn't deploy defensive tactics, they slowly figured out some ways by themselves.

There is no way, what else can I do if I don’t explore it myself?
Still, the Lakers have a defensive black hole, bigger than Gasol's.

He is Nash who just scored 5 points in a row!

Tucker ran around the baseline to the corner behind Dragic, and Dragic passed the ball as if grabbing a life-saving straw.

Tucker hit an open three-pointer.

Nash really can't keep up with this ball. If it's a team with a certain defensive system, they know that Nash and Liu Ren should switch defenses at this time. Nash will block the player Liu Ren blocked, and Liu Ren will catch up with Tucker. It's D'Antoni's team, and they can only watch Tucker make an open shot.

At this time, Liu Ren heard the pleasant cheers again.

Liu Ren glanced at the beauty strangely: "Does this beauty cheer whenever the Suns score? Then why doesn't he cheer for Nash?"

Men's psychology is very strange. When they find that the woman they noticed before is not interested in the man they don't like, their interest in that woman drops by half.

Liu Ren is also like this, now he just thinks that beauty is very beautiful, and his curiosity is much less.

It's the Lakers offense again.

Still Nash!

Nash's defense has never been good, but his judgment of the opponent's defense is one of the best in the entire league. Once again, he seized the opponent's defensive loophole and hit a three-pointer!
8 points in a row!
Immediately afterwards, Gerald Green of the Suns hit the iron with a three-pointer while the beautiful woman on the long side sighed in despair. Liu Ren protected the rebound, and Nash chased and hit a three-pointer during the counterattack!

Suns coach Hornacek called a timeout.

Nash scored 11 points in a row!
Relying on Nash's outstanding performance, the Lakers made an 11-7 start!

Although the team fell behind, the Suns fans still cheered. Of course, this cheer was for Nash!
Shooting is not difficult for Nash, especially this kind of shooting without confrontation. Nash is as easy as training. At this age, what he fears most is physical contact.

The Suns paid more attention to Nash's passing, so they didn't stick to Nash's defense so tightly, otherwise Nash would not score so easily.

Hornacek is very familiar with Nash's current situation, because he was also a player with very average physical fitness and played with his mind and touch.

Although Hornacek is not a celebrity, he is still a good player, otherwise he would not be the main bargaining chip in the Barkley trade, and the owner of the 76ers is not stupid.

Hornacek is also a rare evergreen who played 90 seasons before retiring in the 16s. You must know that he was 23 years old when he entered the league. He was a standard rookie in the 90s. In other words, he retired at about the same age as Nash is now.

The same type, the same age, Hornacek knows how Nash is most comfortable playing now.

Therefore, Hornacek immediately made arrangements to destroy Nash's current comfortable style of play.

On the Lakers side, Nash and D'Antoni are also making arrangements.

This time the arrangement was mainly made by Nash!

Originally, Nash would not interfere with the head coach's tactics, but this time the situation was a bit special. Back in Phoenix, Nash wanted to play the best performance since joining the Lakers, so he directly grabbed the right to set tactics.

"They will definitely strengthen my defense in the future. Paul, you continue to run with CJ. Robert pays attention to the opportunity to catch the ball. Liu, you and I continue to pick and roll, and then look for opportunities to make calls. You can ask me for the ball and be ready at any time. Good catch!"

Nash is Nash, and he immediately saw Hornacek's defensive intentions and made targeted arrangements.

In fact, Nash has played with D'Antoni for so many years, and he has already learned D'Antoni's skills almost.
