Chapter 376
As soon as he played in the second quarter, Lin Bai used a three-pointer to hit the Mavericks' shrinking tactics with a welcome head.

The offensive and defensive transition, the Mavericks attacked, Harris dribbled the ball to the front court, without a half-point pause, the top of the three-point line arced, and a direct cross step changed direction and accelerated to break through to the inside.

As for Harris' pure speed, Nash didn't give in. He moved laterally to keep up, and used his body to block Harris's forward direction.

Harris broke into the three-point line, and while he was on the move, he stepped down and dribbled the basketball from the right to the left, and took a big step to the left.

Nash quickly turned back to chase, but Harris directly pulled the ball up, made a three-step layup, and faced Grant's supplementary defense.

Jumped up from the basket, stretched and stretched in the air, dodged Grant's block and hooked his right hand, the basketball flew to the basket, wiped the backboard, and got into the basket as if it had eyes, scoring a two-pointer If you get it, pay back the color.

36 to 26! !
Looking back, Nash dribbled the ball to the front court, also did not reduce the belt, and also changed direction with a feint, and immediately rushed into the three-point line, one step from the free throw line, pulled the ball up, and made a small throw of horseback archery.

Diop is a heavy center forward, his movement speed is not slow, and his supplementary defense is not timely. After Nash has already made a shot, he rushes to Nash. The basketball calmly flies over his head and draws a line High arc.

The basketball hit the center of the backboard accurately, bounced into the frame, and scored two points.

36 to 28! !
Nash's housekeeping skills are still very powerful, and he can score points easily.

Facing his old club, Nash has a strong desire to attack, but his shooting efficiency is quite high.

Harris dribbled the ball to the front court and divided the basketball to the right three-point line. Stackhouse singled Lin Bai behind the ball, making it clear that he wanted to bully his opponent with a strong physique.

Lin Bai put his left hand against his waist, still unable to stop Stackhouse's strength from resisting the crush.

Lin Bai retreated to the frontier defense, trying to trap his opponent into the encirclement of the Suns. However, when Marion pounced over to attack, Stackhouse pulled the ball directly at the horns and turned around, forcing two points. Jump shot.

Swish!
The basketball is also firmly in the bag.

38 to 28! !
Although Stackhouse's mid-range shooting rate is unstable, his offensive firepower is indeed strong, and it is not difficult to fight against Lin Bai in singles.

The Suns attacked, Nash dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Lin Bai ran back to meet Nash.

Nash understood it, and immediately accelerated his breakthrough, reached the three-point line, passed the ball behind him with a back shot, and then retreated and used his body as a cover to prevent Stackhouse from chasing and defending.

Lin Bairen arrived at the ball, the top line of the three-point line, directly extended the ball, and his body bloomed in the air.

A series of numbers appeared in the eyes.

57…72…43…63…55……

Lin Bai shot very simply and neatly. When the number 72 jumped out, he immediately shook his right wrist.

Swish!
Lin Bai's three-pointer shot did not fail, luckily, he fell steadily into the basket, and hit the three-pointer again.

38 to 31! !The Mavericks attacked, Harris dribbled to the frontcourt, Van Horn pulled up to the high post, and played a pick-and-roll with Harris.

Harris is too fast to attack Nash and Marion. If Marion does not attack Harris together with Nash, Harris can use his speed to make a sudden attack after getting rid of Nash's defense. , and went to the basket.

Facing the pincer attack from Nash and Marion, Harris didn't panic. He directly got up with the ball, jumped up and distributed the basketball to Van Horn with both hands.

Nicknamed "Little Bird", Van Horn is talented offensively. He catches the ball without any extra movements.

In fact, Van Horn's style of play is a bit soft. He likes to float outside and shoot. He is an empty power forward. His current strength has declined seriously.

However, just relying on that precise mid-range shot, he can make Cuban, the owner of the Mavericks, spend tens of millions of dollars in annual salary to bring him to Dallas, just as a substitute for Nowitzki.

It has to be said that his mid-range shooting is very strong, and his physical fitness has declined, but his mid-range shooting skills have become more and more sophisticated.

Swish! !

Van Horn's mid-range shot feels good, hitting the pain accurately and scoring two points.

40 to 31! !
Subsequently, Nash and Marion also played pick and roll.

After Marion screened the pick-and-roll, he immediately made an air cut, and Nash had to send it to the inside.

Marion jumped up from the basket, made an alley-oop, turned 90 degrees, and dunked the basketball into the basket behind his back.

40 to 33! !
Van Horn is a good player on offense, but he is a stream-of-consciousness defensive style player on defense.There is no physical confrontation, no movement speed, no defensive skills, and no defensive enthusiasm. Defense depends on awareness, efficiency is obsessed, and it is common to be blown up.

As the Suns' outside three-point firepower opened up the situation, the Mavericks' defense was a bit hesitant.

Shrinking the defense will hit the Suns' three-pointers hard. If they don't shrink the defense, Nash and Marion can play pick-and-roll cooperation and start to exert force in the interior offense.

Next, the Mavericks' offense can only be supported by the star's individual singles ability. The offense is a bit messy and the efficiency is not high.

After all, Harris' organizational support ability is still limited, and he relies too much on his body speed to score points. Moreover, he is still a player who uses offensive firepower to drive the team forward. Now, scoring is basically the first choice, and organization is the second. choose.

If Nowitzki is still on the court, although the Mavericks' organizational skills are a bit poor, they can still be compensated by Nowitzki's organization forward style of play, and the Mavericks' offensive organization problems will not be too big.

After all, Nowitzki's style of play is not unique, he plays very team, and sometimes he will let his teammates turn on the offensive firepower first, and will take over the team's offensive firepower when the teammates need him to stand up.

Now, with Van Horn replacing Nowitzki, the problem of organizational offense has arisen.

Van Horn has also played as a point forward and has the ability to attack with the ball. However, that was when he was young. Now that his physical fitness has declined, his offensive ability with the ball has disappeared, and his ability to organize and pass the ball is also very weak.

The Mavericks have a group of good offensive players, and they can't play a full-blown offensive firepower.

Under Nash's go-between, the Suns delivered ammunition for their teammates and sorted out the Suns' offense in an orderly manner.

Lin Bai was outside the three-point line, and it rained three-pointers. He used violent three-pointer offensive firepower and made 6 of 5 shots.

With the offensive firepower on the perimeter, Marion and Nash can keep hitting the Mavericks' basket, and Van Horn can't stand Marion's impact at all.

Diaw didn't have any outstanding performance as a small forward, but he didn't fight indiscriminately. With all-round skills, he can also organize passes and connect the Suns' offensive line, playing the Mavericks at the expense of others.

After the second quarter of the game, the Phoenix Suns played a violent offensive firepower and hit the Dallas Mavericks with a shock wave of 36 to 21, leading the score back in one fell swoop.

55 to 59! !
In the second quarter, the Suns, relying on Lin Bai's superb performance with a three-pointer from the outside, allowed the Suns to lead the Mavericks by 4 points in the score and entered the locker room to rest.
