Chapter 293
There was a bang on the basket, and Stoudemire hung on the basket, hitting the basketball hard with both hands.

Only one wave of offense, only 6 seconds away from the Grizzlies' score, the extremely fast offense is very jaw-dropping.

It turned out that Gasol had just made a tip-up and scored, and Stoudemire immediately turned around and attacked. Marion also had a tacit understanding, catching the ball from the baseline and sending it quickly. With a long pass, the basketball, like a missile, accurately found Joe Johnson on the right flank.

In the face of Mike Miller's stoppage time defense, Joe Johnson did not show off his personal singles skills, but directly passed the basketball to the inside.

Stoudemire rushed over, easily caught the ball, dribbled a step, and there was only one basket in front of him.

So, Stoudemire was not polite, and scored two points with a goal that abused the basket.

7 to 4! !
Stoudemire's speed is like a small guard, and his height may not have any advantage in the interior, but when he runs, his impact is unstoppable.

Jason Williams dribbles upfield, Gasol pulls high and plays a pick-and-roll with Jason Williams.

In the Suns misplaced defense, Jason Williams faced the fast Stoudemire, and the misplacement advantage did not account for an absolute advantage.

Immediately gave the ball to Gasol, facing Nash's defense, directly ignored it, caught the ball and shot a jumper, and hit the bull's-eye steadily.

9 to 4! !
Gasol's shooting touch is very soft. Gasol, who is thin inside and has no strength to resist, has a superb mid-range shot. He can empty the inside, blossom outside, and score the basketball calmly.

Next, the Grizzlies strengthened the confrontation of defensive strength and physical strength, which severely reduced the Suns' offensive firepower and efficiency.

Mike Miller, Shane Battier, and Posey all have strong individual defense capabilities.

Suppressed the Suns' outside offensive firepower.

Richardson missed consecutive three-pointers, and felt extremely cold. Battier didn't even make it easy for Richardson to make two-pointers, and kept covering Richardson's face with his big hand all the time. superior.

Battier's blindfolding method is used with great proficiency, preventing Richardson from losing his temper.

Joe Johnson's personal singles ability is very strong, but Mike Miller uses his body to shoot and feel to interfere with Joe Johnson. Although the two-point attack cannot limit Joe Johnson's scoring, but the restriction on three-pointers is very good. Effective.

Even if Joe Johnson can score, his efficiency is not high.

Posey was even more straightforward. He used close defense to confront Marion, which caused Marion a headache and didn't get many offensive opportunities.

Nash and Stoudemire can score points calmly against Gasol and Jason Williams, but the Grizzlies' wing players help defend from time to time, making it difficult for the Suns to play inside.

The Grizzlies spent their energy on defense, and their offensive rhythm was also affected a lot.

However, with Gasol's stable performance and other players' offense and defense are not too biased.

After the first quarter, the Memphis Grizzlies turned away and led the Phoenix Suns by 24 points with a score of 22 to 2.

The two points were evenly matched, entering the anxious price segment.

In the second quarter, D'Antoni didn't want to lose again, and kept the three main players on the court, replacing Richardson and Marion who were not in good condition.

Lin Bai and Kaba Kappa came on stage.

The Grizzlies kept Gasol and Battier, and then replaced Bunch Wells, Earl Watson and Stromile Swift.

The second quarter started, and the Grizzlies had the ball first. Earl Watson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly to Bunchwells who wanted the ball on the left.

Lin Bai's scalp was a little numb, he gritted his teeth and could only force himself on.

Bang! !

In just one round, Lin Bai was defeated and staggered directly.

After successfully cutting a way, Bunch Wells immediately dribbled the ball into the inside line, facing Stoudemire's supplementary defense, shot directly from close range, and scored the basketball strongly.

26 to 22! !
Bunchwells has the height of a shooting guard at 196cm, but his muscles have the strength of a power forward.

He is obviously an outside player, but he plays with an inside offensive style. His skills are relatively average, but he can use his physical strength to bully others.

Nicknamed "Bangzi", his pure physical style of play, not to mention Lin Bai, even Chris Bowen, who will be selected to the best team in the next few years, can't do anything about him.

Technology, consciousness, experience, etc., under the pressure of his physical strength, nothing is worth mentioning. Facing such a "stick", Lin Bai only has headaches in his mind.

Fortunately, Lin Bai fought back offensively, using a back run, received a back pass from the left outside line, and easily hit a three-pointer, proving his value on the court.

26 to 25! !
However, the Grizzlies seemed to have found a way to restrain the Suns, and they still gave the ball to Bunch Wells to single out Lin Bai.

Bunch Wells chiseled twice with his back, deflecting Lin Bai's defensive center of gravity, turning the ball around directly, crushing Lin Bai, and heading to the inside again.

This time the offense not only succeeded in the offense at the basket, but also caused Stoudemire's thug foul, which became a 2+1.

On the free throw line, Bunchwells did not hesitate and made the free throw steadily.

29 to 25! !
Next, Bunch Wells still broke through from Lin Bai's defense zone and went inside to score points.

If the Suns flank, Bunch Wells will immediately split the ball, making the Suns very passive.

If the Suns' offensive rhythm is not suppressed and they can speed up and run, D'Antoni will not be interested in Bunch Wells' offense at all. Even if he continues to score points, he will not fluctuate.

However, now that the Suns are forced to play position, the offense of the Grizzlies is very embarrassing.

As Lin Bai's three-point shot bounced out of the frame, D'Antoni waved his hand and replaced Lin Bai after playing less than 3 minutes, replacing him with Richardson.

Richardson's physical strength is not bad, and he strongly disrupted Bunch Wells' offensive rhythm and did not allow him to easily score the basketball.

Although Richardson's three-pointer is still not open, at least he can defend the Grizzlies' offense.

However, the Suns have not yet reached the happy time, because the Grizzlies directly sacrificed the pick-and-roll battle.

It's not a pick-and-roll between the inside and the point guard, but a two-point outside pick-and-roll.

Nash was a little dumbfounded, Bunch Wells actually singled him with the ball behind him in the middle!
Nash gritted his teeth and pushed forward desperately, trying to block the opponent's attack with his body.

However, it didn't have the slightest effect. Nash was knocked away directly, and after Bunch Wells cut a way, he rushed to the inside again.

A loud bang!
Bunchwells rushed to the basket, took off with the ball, and hit the basketball into the basket with a powerful dunk.

Subsequently, the Suns could only shrink the inside line, flank the Grizzlies' inside offense, or even encircle them, allowing the Grizzlies to shoot from the outside.

Sure enough, the Grizzlies' inside offense was blocked, and their outside offense was also appalling, with consecutive misses.

Although the Grizzlies' offensive firepower is mediocre, the Suns' offensive firepower was directly misfired by virtue of their strong defense.

Richardson and Joe Johnson's two long shots failed to make any shots, and they couldn't rain three-pointers to provide support for the Suns' inside offense.

The Suns' inside offense is also very tough.

At the end of the second quarter, the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Phoenix Suns with a score of 21 to 19. At the end of the first half, the lead was extended to 5 points and they entered the locker room to rest.

47 to 42! !
