Chapter 201

With Paul and Jiangbei both breaking out, the game entered the most intense moment.

Originally, in Thibodeau's view, there was no hope of winning this game, and it was not yet one or two games before the playoffs were determined, so there was no need to waste energy on this game, just prepare for the next game. After all, it is not easy to meet such a strong opponent as the Suns.

But this is just Thibodeau's idea, and Derrick Rose doesn't think so. He hasn't taken a game so seriously for a long time. He wants to give it a go and prove himself again in front of old friends and opponents.

Rose found Paul directly after receiving the serve, and his eyes were fixed on Paul. Paul saw a strong desire to fight from his eyes, which also excited Paul.

Paul lowered his center of gravity and approached a step earlier, creating a certain defensive pressure on Rose. At the same time, he clapped his hands and signaled Rose to let his horse come over.

Seeing this, Ross also knew that Paul understood what he meant, so he didn't hesitate anymore, and suddenly started to accelerate. Although Paul had prepared for a long time, he was still pulled away by Ross. This is Ross's strength now.

Paul didn't completely lose his position, but just followed Rose. If he didn't pay attention, he could easily be sent a fatal blow by Paul. Of course, it was impossible to defend Rose so easily.

I saw Rose changing direction continuously, completely throwing away Paul, and at the same time cheating Ayton's defense, and scored a layup.

Jiang Bei looked at Ross in surprise, how could it be possible, how dare he do such a physical breakthrough, is he joking about his career?After so many years, he has just ushered in a turning point, is he going to give up like this?

Rose reproduced the classic breakthrough moves of the past, which surprised not only Jiangbei, but also everyone. At the same time, Rose's fans were also worried about his physical condition.

But soon Jiangbei noticed something was wrong. Ross was not such an irrational person, so it wasn't that Ross didn't care about physical harm, but that he avoided it for other reasons.

At this time, everyone was sensational because of Rose's breakthrough, even the fans of the Suns felt incredible, admiring and worried about Rose.

At the same time, the big screen above the stadium began to show the scene of Ross's breakthrough just now. Jiang Bei looked at it carefully, and sure enough, he verified Jiang Bei's statement. Ross didn't know whether he thought about it or someone gave him guidance.

Although there are still some adaptable factors now, the general route Rose has planned long ago, and he just proceeds according to the established route instead of abruptly changing direction, which will cause almost no damage to the body.

Although it lacks the previous sharpness, in the eyes of the fans, Rose's breakthrough is still strong. Just look at the current performance on the spot, it is indeed very enthusiastic.

Although Paul was also surprised by Rose's breakthrough, after all, Paul was directly facing Rose's defender, so although he was not as careful as Jiang Bei's observation, this kind of momentum could not deceive people. There was a difference between a planned advance and an indomitable breakthrough.

Paul didn't know what the problem was, but Rose's breakthrough did not scare Paul, but made Paul even more motivated.

Paul dribbled the ball steadily across the half court, facing Rose without the slightest hesitation, and without unnecessary nonsense, he just got short and slashed towards the inside. Although Paul's stature is considered short in the NBA, his confrontation strength is not bad.

This time Paul was very direct. When Rose detected the direction of Paul's breakthrough in time and blocked Paul's advance route, Paul did not stop, and directly collided with Rose, looking for a physical confrontation.

The physical confrontation between Rose and Paul was basically equal and could not determine the final result. At this time, Paul pushed Rose with his shoulder again, and he turned around with the help of Rose's counter-push and shot a jumper!
Hit!Paul glanced at the basket calmly, as if everything was in his mind, not as he expected.

In the transition between offense and defense, Rose did not choose to break through again. After all, no matter how much his breakthrough moves are improved, his physical fitness cannot be the same as when he was young, supporting him to play the entire game, or even three quarters.

With the help of his teammates' pick-and-roll cooperation, Rose ran out of the open space and hit a three-pointer at a 45-degree angle to help the Knicks narrow the score again.

But this joy did not last long, and soon Paul responded with a three-pointer and hit a three-pointer.

In this way, in the duel between Paul and Rose, the score kept changing, but the point difference basically remained the same. Rose still failed to change the fate of the Knicks.

The Suns clocked in three quarters and defended their home victory.

这一场比赛保罗拿下了本场的MVP，全场保罗20中14三分7中4以70%的超高命中率砍下34分9板9助攻的准三双！得分和助攻都是队内最高。

In this game, Jiangbei and Ayton just became Paul's helpers. Jiangbei scored 12 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists. This may be the lowest scoring data in Jiangbei's career.

Jiangbei also wanted to see how Paul's real strength was at the critical moment, and he was very satisfied with the result, which made Jiangbei feel more at ease. Sure enough, it felt easy for the veteran to take care of him, and he didn't have to bear so much pressure.

Again, don’t underestimate anyone in the NBA. You never know how much strength he hides. Paul’s reputation as the god of point guards is not an exaggeration. His performance, like James, has been stable and outstanding for more than ten years.

Such players are the treasure of every team. There is an old saying in Huaxia: "If there is an old family, there is a treasure!" Sure enough, these older players may not be so explosive in every game, but when it comes to critical moments, they can pull out and win.
