Chapter 325 Winning is [-]/[-]
On February 2005, 2, the Phoenix Suns went to Golden State to challenge the Golden State Warriors away.

The Golden State Warriors are currently in the second-to-last position in the Western Conference with a record of 14 wins and 36 losses.

Recently suffered a 4-game losing streak, the state is very bad, and morale has dropped to a freezing point. Their current goal is to focus on smashing and sprinting for the No. [-] lottery.

Before the game, no one was optimistic that the All-State Warriors would win, even if they played at home, but facing the Suns, they could only seek less losses and more wins.

The Phoenix Suns, who just lost the key game at the top of the list, have high morale and want to spread all the bad luck on the Golden State Warriors.

Sure enough, when the first quarter started, the Suns didn't hold back. They played a multi-point offensive and played a wave of offense, which made the Warriors completely unable to lift their heads.

In particular, Richardson is in a hot state, no matter how he shoots, he made 7 of 6 shots in a single quarter, scored 15 points and 2 rebounds, and performed like a god.

At the end of the first quarter, the Phoenix Suns led the Golden State Warriors by 41 points with a score of 22 to 19.

To some extent, the Suns have laid the foundation for victory after only one quarter of the game.

The starting five of the Golden State Warriors, Mike Dunville and Derek Fisher performed well, and the two combined to score 16 points.

Deng Weili floated on the outside, used precise mid-range shots, made consecutive mid-range shots, and scored the most points.

However, he was directly blasted by Richardson on the defensive end. In the confrontation between the two, Richardson taught his opponent to be a man with stronger offensive firepower.

Fisher is nicknamed "Old Fish". As a heavy point guard, he has an advantage playing Nash. Just looking at the statistics, Fisher has the upper hand.

However, Nash used another way of playing to prove that the two are not at the same level at all.

Jason Richardson, the titular star of the All-State Warriors, was disappointing, shooting just 5 of 1 from the field and scoring two points.

As for Adonal Foyer and Speedy Clexton, they just made up the numbers, they couldn't attack, and their defense was terrible.

At the start of the second quarter, D'Antoni rarely performed a large rotation. It seemed that the Suns' bench was too weak and needed to develop immediate combat power.

The Golden State Warriors are also working hard to cultivate rookies and the core of the team.

The second quarter started, and the Suns did not have Nash to control the team's offensive rhythm. Under the organization of Barbosa's rushing and beating, the Suns were actually suppressed by the offensive firepower of the Golden State Warriors.

Under the leadership of Fisher and Calbert Cheney, although the Warriors also fought chaotically, they played well. They beat the Suns 28 to 23, and the Warriors took advantage of the chaos to recover 5 points. !
At the end of the first half, the Phoenix Suns led the Golden State Warriors by 64 points 50 to 14 and entered the locker room to rest.

After the second half of the game, the two sides changed sides to fight again, leading only by 14 points. Although D'Antoni knew that the score was not safe, he still only kept the three starting players on the field, and then began to rotate slightly.

The Warriors didn't have any reservations, and they played with all their might.

The third quarter started, the Suns attacked, Nash dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and played a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire.

After Nash was flanked, he dribbled the ball away and threw the basketball to the inside. After Stoudemire covered, he made an air cut to the basket, easily caught the ball and jumped up, and succeeded in a Tomahawk dunk.

Looking back, the Warriors began to target the weak link of the Suns' perimeter defense and carry out special strikes.

Mike Dunleavy's 02 No. [-] Show, played an all-around style of play, took advantage of the swingman's dislocation, pulled to a high position and played a pick-and-roll with Fisher.

Nash was directly overwhelmed by Dunleavy's dislocation.

Fisher and Dunleavy still chose a simple tactical play and began to rotate singles against Nash, playing Nash completely unable to hold his head up.

The Suns beat the Warriors in the first quarter, and their desire to attack was a bit low. The offensive options were not only simple, but their shots were random, even a bit bad. Therefore, the Suns started the iron playing music.

Stoudemire seemed to feel that cutting dunks would not be able to show his strength, so he began to shoot mid-range shots frequently, but tonight his touch was not on the line, he hit the iron one after another, and bounced out of the basket.

Marion didn't let Stoudemire take the limelight. He also used his awkward jump shot, but still couldn't find the aim, and the sound of iron hammering hit his ears.

Nash, Richardson, Lin Bai, Jacobson, etc., except for Joe Johnson's stable performance, the Suns' offensive firepower was very inefficient and only scored 17 points.

The Warriors' offense is actually not a threat, it's almost a single player, with a pick-and-roll at most.

Fisher, Dunleavy, and Jason Richardson's low-end Trident teamed up to score 25 of the 23 points in the third quarter, playing very efficiently.

With one shot and one shot, the point difference was slowly regained. The 19-point lead was squandered by the Suns, leaving only 6 points.

When the fourth quarter started, the Suns generals looked relaxed and freehand. They didn't think they would lose at all.

The Suns started a magical blacksmithing show.

Barbosa dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, but he didn't come by himself. He passed the ball to Lin Bai on the right side.

Bang! !

The basketball struggled a bit on the rim and still rolled out, missing the shot.

Subsequently, Barbosa dribbled the ball to the top arc of the three-pointer. Facing Fisher's defense, he still did not choose to break through and shot himself!
With a clear snap, the basketball was passed to Richardson on the left.

In the first quarter of the game, Richardson played super god-like state, and Barbosa trusted Richardson's offense very much.

In the second and third quarters, Richardson's playing time was a bit intermittent. He thought that the opponent would be eliminated in the first quarter, so his appearance was a bit redundant. Why not let the rotation players play more.

As a result, the bench players were unreliable, and their offenses were inaccurate one after another. The starting five tigers also suffered from this problem, and their offenses were also misfired.

Richardson's playing time increased, and Richardson played very calmly after receiving the ball.

Instead of making a three-point shot, he raised the ball and swayed a shot. After deceiving Dunleavy's defensive center of gravity, he immediately dribbled the ball into the three-point line. Without half a minute's hesitation, he immediately bent his knees and jumped up. Point jumper shot.

The result directly made people dumbfounded. Richardson didn't shoot a three-pointer, dribbled in and shot a two-pointer, and finally shot a three-pointer!

Amidst the boos of the fans and audience, Richardson also had a smirk on his face, and he couldn't figure out what was going on?

The shooting feels like the tide is ebbing, it comes suddenly, but it is also crisp.

Next, Barbosa, Marion, Stoudemire, Nash and Joe Johnson, who were replaced again, missed shots.

God does not seem to be on the side of the Suns. They played a full 5 minutes in the fourth quarter. The Suns, which claim to be the most offensive firepower in the league, faced the Golden State Warriors who were concentrating on doing badly. Life.

Is this still winning the Suns with offense? !
Amidst the boos, the Warriors took the opportunity to play an 8-0 offensive and achieved a go-ahead against the Suns.

Could it be that the Golden State Warriors will turn an ordinary game with disparity in strength into a soul-stirring counterattack?
At 6 minutes and 45 seconds into the fourth quarter, the Suns opened the Suns' scoring account by Nash's two-pointer with a horse-riding archery throw.

Next, breaking the Suns, who had a poor offense, did not take advantage of the situation to beat the Warriors. Instead, they played inextricably with the Warriors and entered an anxious situation.

A must-win game turned into a [-]-[-] game, and the Suns are too talented.

In the last 39 seconds of the game, with Marion's defensive steal, he played a quick counterattack and successfully dunked at the basket, bringing the score back to the same starting line.

94 to 94! !
In the last two rounds of offense, the two sides were tied, and both had a chance for an offensive lore.

The Warriors came first, and Fisher dribbled upcourt, distributing the ball to Jason Richardson.

As the team's leading star and leading scorer, Jason Richardson has the right to execute the most one-hit lore.

Facing Joe Johnson's marking, Jason Richardson put on three offensive threats, raised the ball and swayed a shot in the air, bent his knees and jumped up, pulled the ball up, and opened his hands to make a three-point jumper.

Bang! !

Jason Richardson's three-pointer missed, and the basketball bounced out.

However, the rebound was still taken by the Warriors, there was no offensive space under the basket, and the ball was given to Fisher to reorganize.

Fisher caught the ball and faced Nash's defense. He didn't press time, but directly lifted the ball over the top, bent his knees and raised his body, making a three-point jump shot.

Fisher has the feat of killing the Spurs in 0.4 seconds, has a big heart, and also has the three-pointer ability to kill the Suns.

Nash didn't dare to bet that Fisher's touch was not right, so he rushed forward, jumped up and reached out to block Fisher's shot.

Unexpectedly, Fisher didn't take a shot, but pulled the ball down, jumped up again, and touched Nash's body.

This is a thug foul to commit Nash!

Bang!
Fisher bumped into Nash's body and wanted to avoid it, but couldn't avoid it.

He casually pushed the basketball into the sky.

This three-pointer made a three-pointer!

After Fisher landed, he didn't even look at the basketball, but turned his attention to the referee.

Shaking his head, the referee refused to whistle Nash's thug foul, but called the bottom line to qualify.

The Suns get the offensive ball!
This is the home court of the Suns, and Nash is a superstar with a star whistle and a home whistle!
The key point is that this is the final shot. The referee wants to leave the game to the players to attack, not to decide the outcome with free throws.

Fisher was clever but was mistaken by his cleverness. He is not in the Lakers, but in the Warriors, a bad team. Naturally, he will not be taken care of by the referee.

The Suns narrowly escaped disaster.

With 22 seconds left, the Suns have the final chance to kill.

Nash dribbled to the frontcourt, did not pass the ball, and did not rush to attack, but dribbled to consume time.

Facing Fisher's defense, Nash pressed the time to the last 5 seconds before starting.

Accelerate directly to break through Fisher, get inside the three-point line, step down and dribble while walking, step back and step back outside the three-point line, immediately pull the ball up, pull out the three-pointer, and press the game At the end of the whistle, the basketball was thrown out of the sky.

Bang! !

Nash's three-pointer was shot dry, just like the portrayal of the Suns tonight, the front was gorgeous and wonderful, but the back was so hot that it flew up.

Amidst the fans and regrets in the audience, Nash's lore missed a three-pointer.

The game was tied in regular time and the game entered overtime.

In the overtime game, the Suns did not give the Warriors another chance. They used more points to bloom, and a wave of shock waves directly hit the Warriors with a 15-6 crushing offensive, regaining the victory.

At the end of the game, the Phoenix Suns beat the Golden State Warriors 109-100 in overtime.
