Chapter 318 All People Are Soldiers
In the second quarter of the game, D'Antoni did not have a big rotation, replacing Richardson and Joe Johnson who felt bad, and Lin Bai and Jacob Lin went into battle.

The Kings' bench bandits were absent, and Adelman replaced Eddie House, Kevin Martin, Darius Sangueira, and Stojakovic and Brad Miller led the team's offense.

The second quarter started. The Suns had the ball first. Nash dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Facing Eddie House's defense, Nash didn't stop for half a point. The center of gravity of the footsteps, the fake shot is really sudden, the feet are exerted, the body is short, and it is easy to reach the three-point line.

One step from the free throw line, without going down, he immediately drew his bow and set up an arrow, and opened his hand to make a small throw in the style of horseback archery.

The basketball drew a very high arc in the air, as if it was equipped with a navigator, it precisely hit the center of the backboard, and then got into the basket obediently, scoring a two-pointer.

26 to 33! !
Offensive and defensive transition, Eddie House dribbled to the frontcourt, chose to hand the basketball to Brad Miller who was pulled to the high position, still cut to the basket, and pulled the bottom line to the bottom corner, pulling the offensive space at the same time , ready to screen, run, cut, and hit the back door of the Suns.

Lin Bai on the left uses his speed to tightly lock Kevin Martin's air-cut counterrun, without giving him any hope of catching the ball.

Fortunately, Kevin Martin, who has just entered the NBA league, is not the monster who will score as easily as drinking water in the future. Lin Bai spent a lot of effort to keep an eye on Kevin Martin.

Jacques Brin on the right is not so leisurely. He is facing an All-Star scorer.

Stojakovic first ran to the side with the ball, and suddenly made a superb counter-run, throwing off Jacobson's marking, and went to the inside.

There was a clear snap, and Brad Miller, who was at the top of the three-point line, understood it and slammed it to the ground.

When the ball arrives, Stojakovic easily catches the ball, takes advantage of the trend to get up in three steps, hits the basket, jumps up, and with a pick with his right hand, the basketball is stably picked into the basket, and two points are easily scored.

26 to 35! !
The Suns attacked, Nash dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and in the positional battle, Nash broke through Eddie House with the ball in the middle, dribbled the ball continuously, and used rhythm and change of direction to reach the three-point line. Played a pick-and-roll fit.

In the first quarter, the Suns couldn't shoot three-pointers on both sides of the flanks. Therefore, the Kings continued the defensive strategy in the first quarter, emptying the Suns' outside offense and focusing on encircling the Suns' inside offensive firepower.

Kevin Martin let go of Lin Bai's defense, rushed to Nash and Eddie House together, and made a double attack on Nash.

Nash has long been used to this kind of flank attack, and he dealt with it very calmly.

He took a big step back with a dribble, opened the distance with the defender, immediately pulled the ball and jumped up, smashing the basketball towards Lin Bai with both hands.

Outside the 65-degree three-point line on the right, Lin Bai caught the ball and jumped up without any extra movements. His body bloomed in the air, very elegant.

With a flick of his right wrist, the basketball flew away, drawing an arc of a full moon in the air.

There was a clear and clear sound of wiping the net, and Lin Bai raised the knife and dropped it, and accurately hit the basketball into the basket. The three-pointer went into the net hollowly, and a burst of white net flowers appeared.

29 to 35! !
The Suns' three-point firepower finally ignited the flames and taught the Kings a lesson.

The Kings' offense did not make the Suns unique. It was still Eddie House who handed the ball to Brad Miller in the high position, and then opened up the space.

Facing Stoudemire's marking, Brad Miller feinted a shot and made a false pass to Stojakovic who was in an empty cut. He suddenly pulled up a jumper and made a three-pointer, which caught Stoudemire by surprise. .

Swish!
Brad Miller has a soft touch, the basketball falls steadily into the basket, the three-pointer hits the bull's-eye accurately, and the white net flowers are overflowing.

29 to 38! !
Subsequently, the inside of the Suns began to play, and Nash and Stoudemire continued to play pick-and-roll cooperation.

After being flanked, Nash calmly assigned the basketball to Stoudemire.

Stoudemire didn't hold back either, directly making a two-point jumper from mid-range, steadily scoring points.

Immediately afterwards, Stojakovic missed a three-pointer from Brad Miller. Marion overpowered Sangueira, grabbed the rebound, and immediately distributed the ball to Nash for a quick counterattack.

Jacobsen and Lin Bai, one on the left and one on the right, pierced the Kings' sides like two sharp knives out of their sheaths.

Nash received the ball and turned around, dodging Eddie House who was counter-robbing on the spot, and took a step. Nash didn't pause for half a minute during the run, and directly pushed a long pass without looking at people with both hands.

The basketball fell into Lin Bai's hands precisely like a missile in the air.

Lin Bai took a step, adjusted his pace, and directly faced Kevin Martin with a chasing three-pointer.

Swish! !

Lin Bai's shooting rhythm is very good, without any false shots, and he steadily hits another three-pointer.

32 to 38! !
Next, the Suns played their favorite offensive rhythm, and the 7-second running and bombing began to shine.

Nash raised the offensive tempo to a flying height, and the Suns rushed to full offensive firepower, playing a multi-point offensive.

Marion made an air cut layup, or made a jump shot after catching the ball, almost hitting one shot accurately, making Sangueira unable to lift his head at all.

Stoudemire is also unstoppable when he rushes up. His physical talent is too abnormal, and Brad Miller is completely overwhelmed.

Jacobson also has a good three-pointer, and there will be dazzling performances from time to time. Although Stojakovic's offense is very good, but the defense is still a bit weak, unable to freeze Jacobson's attack.

Lin Bai's three-pointer was very eye-catching, and Kevin Martin had no temper at all, and the hot touch made the Kings' shrinking defensive line tactics fail.

In fact, the Princeton tactical system of the Kings is also very impressive.

Stojakovic felt so hot, whether it was an air cut two-pointer or a three-pointer to catch and shoot, he played well. Jacobsen was directly blown up, and the Suns were forced to replace him. Richardson was not beaten so defenselessly.

In addition to Stojasvic's outstanding performance, Brad Miller also showed a general style, supporting the organization to sort out the Kings' offense in an orderly manner, and occasionally scored brilliantly. The overall performance is very good.

In contrast, the Kings' substitute players played a bit disappointed, no longer the courage of the bench gangsters.

Eddie House is 185cm tall and is very active offensively. However, his shot selection is very poor, his style of play is somewhat independent, his offensive efficiency is average, and he has no organizational support ability.

The only thing he can do is to dribble the ball in half court, pass the ball to Brad Miller or use speed to make a strong breakthrough. After all, Nash's defensive strength is very poor, so he only has a few chances to force and score.

Darius Sangueira has almost no sense of presence. As Webber's substitute, he was directly overwhelmed by Marion on both offense and defense.

Kevin Martin has not yet adapted to the rhythm of the game. His body is too thin, and he can only use his speed to entangle him defensively. On offense, the league has not yet issued a fur whistle, and his touch style of play is simply impossible.

Not to mention, although the Princeton system tactical play is very advantageous in terms of offense, but with the end of the golden generation, this play can no longer evoke brilliance. It can be seen that this play is not easy to play, not for ordinary players. typed out.

Seeing that the lead of the Kings was gradually narrowed by the Suns, Adelman could only wave his hand and replace with other starting players to barely withstand the offensive of the Suns.

Weber stood up, played singles with the ball in the middle, scored consecutive points, and stabilized the situation on the court.

At the end of the second quarter, the Phoenix Suns played an all-out offensive, 36 to 31, reducing the score of the two teams to 4 points.

At the end of the first half, the Phoenix Suns temporarily fell behind the Sacramento Kings 60 to 64 and entered the locker room to rest.
