Chapter 202 Run and Blast
At 11:3 p.m. on November 9rd, at the American West Arena, the home team of the Phoenix Suns will face the Atlanta Hawks, and the official start will begin.

The Hawks started with the Five Tigers, followed by point guard Kenny Anderson, shooting guard Antoine Walker, small forward Al Harrington, power forward Boris Diaw, and center Jason Koller.

As soon as this starting lineup comes out, it is not at the same level as the Suns. The Eagles can only hope to win an upset. They only hope to lose less and win more.

You must know that the 03-04 season is not over yet, the Atlanta Hawks sent away the team's head star Sherif Rahim, and began to enter the pace of reconstruction.

When the season was over, they started to sell Jason Terry and Stephen Jackson everywhere again. The "Trident" was completely gone, and the starting five were completely new. .

In the jump ball, Stoudemire had no suspense, easily defeated Jason Koller, and the Suns got the first attack.

With long feet, Nash catches the ball and advances quickly. He quickly comes to the frontcourt without any hesitation. In general, he squeezed away the two insiders Dior and Koller, his body blossomed in the air, caught the ball in the air, and slammed the basketball into the basket, as violent as he wanted.

Stoudemire's physical fitness is too strong, full of strength, excellent jumping, and Nash's just-right pass. This wonderful and domineering alley-oop was born.

2 to 0! !
The Phoenix Suns connected internally and externally, and took the lead in blasting a wonderful alley-oop, which was a head start.

The Eagles attacked, and Kenny Anderson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Now the Eagles lineup, with some well-known players, only Walker and Harrington are left. Without much hesitation, they directly pass the ball to Walker on the right.

After catching the ball, facing Joe Johnson's defense, Walker feinted in the air, raised his hand and made a three-point pull-back jumper.

Joe Johnson hardly reacted, the basketball flew towards the basket, there was a crisp sound of wiping the net, and the three-pointer went into the net hollowly, causing a burst of water splash.

2 to 3! !
Walker, who loves to shoot three-pointers, raised his knife and dropped his hands, twisting his ugly dance to celebrate, celebrating the first goal of the Eagles' debut.

Scoring goals and celebrating are things that are taken for granted, but this is an away game, the home of the Suns. The fans and spectators are not afraid of big things, booing and attacking indiscriminately.

Immediately, the eyes of the Suns players changed, becoming murderous.

The bottom line is fast, Nash dribbles quickly across the half court, the lineup is drawn quickly, and he plays run and gun. Nash sends a pass while running.

Richardson from the left wing's three-point line arrived at the ball. He didn't make any adjustments to catch the ball. Falling into the net nest, the pure white net flowers overflowed.

5 to 3! !
Next, both sides were desperately attacking, the scene was wide open, the rhythm was flying, and you were playing back and forth. It was so lively, and the fans enjoyed a wonderful feast of goals.

In the fast offense, the Suns shot when they had the opportunity, without any hesitation, and completed a wave of offense in almost seven seconds.

In the positional battle, Nash held the ball in the middle, Marion and Stoudemire pulled to the corner, Richardson was outside the three-point line on the left wing, and Joe Johnson was on the right three-point line. The famous diamond tactic.

Nash held the ball in the middle and made a pick-and-roll cooperation with Stoudemire, passing the basketball in the middle.

Stoudemire, who covered the air cut and went down, received the ball, and his dribble was a tomahawk-style dunk.

Stoudemire's speed is very fast, and the Eagles' defense has not been changed yet, as if they have been staked, and the offense is easy to succeed.

The Eagles are also the way to play offensively and win. If they have a chance in the fast break, they will shoot directly.

In a positional battle, the ball is handed over to the star to solve it. It is almost Walker and Harrington who attack one and replace me with another attack, taking shots in rotation, regardless of the offensive efficiency.

After the first quarter, although the Suns have strong offensive firepower, they are still in the process of adapting. The players can't let go at all, and the shooting percentage is not very high. They can still score 28 to 23 in a single quarter, leading the Eagles 5 points.

At the start of the second quarter, D'Antoni had no intention of substituting at all. His idea was to adapt the starting lineup as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, the next situation was completely one-sided. The Eagles replaced the substitute players and were beaten to the ground without a chance to parry.

It's all about the running and bombing performance of the Suns, the violent offensive firepower, desperately shooting three-pointers, dunks directly attacking the frame, and the dazzling and gorgeous offense, which directly stunned the Eagles.

Under the support of Nash's go-between organization, the Suns played a smooth and multi-point offensive wave. In the second quarter, they played a 36-12 attack wave, almost blowing up the opponent in one quarter, and the score entered garbage time.

At the end of the halftime game, the Suns were in great momentum at home, leading the Eagles by almost 64 points 35 to 30, and entered the locker room to rest.

Back in the second half, the two sides switched sides to fight, and when the Eagles players came on the court, they were dumbfounded again. The Suns' starting five didn't change, and many of them came to the court. How could they bully people like this?
Coach D'Antoni has this personality, and the later seven-man rotation tactics simply became his label, stuck on his forehead, and he couldn't tear it off no matter how hard he tried!

Facing the Suns' all-out attack, the Eagles had almost no chance of a comeback. After more than 6 minutes of play, the Suns completely widened the gap between the two sides to 36 points, and D'Antoni remembered to change. One after another, the starting lineup will be replaced one after another, and the substitute lineup will play.

Lin Bai finally made his Phoenix Suns debut with more than 4 minutes left in the third quarter.

Under Barbosa's dribbling organization, Lin Bai didn't get many opportunities.

In the last 2 minutes of the third quarter, Lin Bai received a pass from Barbosa outside the three-point line on the right.

Lin Bai didn't miss the opportunity, and hit a three-pointer with his open hand, opening his personal scoring account with the Suns.

In the 8th minute of the fourth quarter, Lin Bai caught the ball and jumped twice under the basket in a counterattack, adding two more points without a dunk.

Afterwards, he robbed and shot himself, and missed all catches and shots.

In the end, in the last 3 minutes of the fourth quarter, he used a counter-running from east to west, ran outside the three-point line, and then received Barbosa's ball, getting a big open three-point shot.

Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right, Lin Bai received the ball, bent his knees slightly, and jumped up lightly. His body bloomed in the air. Lin Bai shot very stretched, and his shooting movements were very standard. A beautiful arc.

There was a crisp sound of cleaning the net, the white net splashed, and the three-pointer raised his knife and fell steadily to the basket.

Lin Bai played 16 minutes, made 5 of 3 shots, 2 of 2 three-pointers, scored 8 points and 2 rebounds. His performance was neither good nor bad.

At the end of the full game, the Suns used their run-and-bomb tactics to shine in the home opener. With a score of 112 to 82, they beat the visiting Atlanta Hawks by 30 points and got a good start to the new season.
