Chapter 389 Victory over the Sun

The Grizzlies attacked, and Damon Stoudemire's speed increased very quickly. He was not afraid, and he started against the Suns. The defense, without pause, directly accelerated to break through the three-point line, and suddenly passed the ball from behind to the right.

Mike Miller, who cut into the inside line, comfortably received the basketball, dribbled a step, and after throwing away Lagabel, he immediately pulled the ball up, raised his hand for a two-pointer and made an emergency stop jump shot.

Thomas wanted to make up the defense, but it was too late.

Swish!
Mike Miller's touch is very good, he hit the basket accurately, scored the basketball steadily, and scored two points.

Mike Miller plays the position of shooting guard, but his reputation is not obvious. His style of play is not gorgeous, his scoring ability is not violent, and he is not even as famous as those convulsive scorers.

However, underestimating his scoring ability will be hit hard. His calm style of play and solid basic shooting skills make him the team's most reliable scorer and the most reassuring part of the head coach.

The Grizzlies' offensive offense is good, playing a blooming situation inside and outside.

Damon Stoudemire, Gasol and Mike Miller can frequently grab the inside, and then the offensive firepower on the outside is also very competitive.

First, Gasol singled Thomas and was pinched by the Suns. Battier received the ball from Gasol and received the ball from the left corner of the three-pointer. Jump shot.

Battier's shooting posture is very standard, the touch is very soft, the three-pointer is shot, the hand goes up and down, without missing, and the three-pointer hits the basket accurately, and the three-pointer goes through the heart.

In fact, Battier's three-point shooting skills have not been polished yet, but his mental quality is very good, he dares to shoot when he has the opportunity, and his style of play is very tough.

Subsequently, Eddie Jones did not make Battier unique, and also scored a wonderful three-pointer from the side.

The Grizzlies played an all-out offensive offensive.

The full play of the role players made the Grizzlies' offense irresistible. As the head star of the Grizzlies, Gasol is also up to the challenge. Whether he is single-playing Marion behind the low post or facing Marion's defense, he can score two points in the middle distance. Shots, even supporting the organization to pass and cover, Gasol played well, leading the Grizzlies to score 28 points in a single quarter.

After all, the Grizzlies are a defensive team. With such a score, it is already an extraordinary performance.

However, the offense of the Suns was even more violent. They fought against the Suns, and even speeded up to run and bomb. Obviously, they found the wrong opponent.

The Suns ran and blasted in 7 seconds, and their offensive efficiency was quite good. They scored 34 points, temporarily leading the Grizzlies by 6 points, and entered the second quarter of the game.

The game started in the second quarter, and the thickness of the Grizzlies' bench finally achieved obvious results. The Grizzlies team, led by Bobby Jackson, the best sixth man in the past, was obviously stronger than the Suns' combat power.

Bobby Jackson used his powerful personal scoring ability in chaotic battles to frequently score in singles forcibly.

The Suns' Dior has comprehensive skills, but none of them are top-notch. When he doesn't have the ball, he can only run back and forth.

Plus his style of play is a bit unselfish and likes to pass the ball.

It's just that his pass was a little too hasty, and there was a taste of throwing the blame.

James Jones obviously has a feeling of disobedience. From the start, being knocked down to coming off the bench, he has a feeling that he is powerful and useless. After all, he is strong in defense, but his offensive method is to hit the basket.

However, the Suns are a team that is good at offense. They like players with good offense or offensive ability.

Obviously he is desperately defending on the defensive end, but the Suns are always losing points. Sometimes, when he wants to help defend, he loses his defensive position.

If he doesn't assist in defending and defending, he doesn't have a sense of presence on the court. On defense, he looks a little out of place and very uncomfortable.

Offensively, he has no mid-range shooting ability, especially without the three-point range. His impact style of play is not only inefficient, but will become an undercover existence.

After all, the Suns' ability to contain the inside line is too poor. When Jones hits the basket, he has to face the opponent's entire inside defense alone. How can his impact be cheap?

The strength of the substitute players is not good, and Nash is not on the court to organize the offense, and the Suns' offensive firepower is directly misfired.

In the battle against the bench lineup, the Suns were at a disadvantage and were given a wave of offensives. With the return of the main players, the Suns gradually stabilized the situation on the field.

However, the Suns still trailed the Grizzlies in the second quarter.

At the end of the first half, both teams played a good quarter. With the help of the Grizzlies, they beat the Suns with a score of 32 to 22 in the second quarter. The team scored 60 points and entered the locker room to rest.

Back in the second half of the game, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

The main players on both sides returned to the field and fought with all their might.

As soon as the game started, the Suns played very aggressively. Nash first dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and used a bow-like fake to deceive Damon's defensive position. One step, immediately, draw the bow and set the arrow, open the hand for a two-pointer, make an emergency stop jump shot and then lean back.

Swish! !

Nash's housekeeping skills are like piercing Yang with a hundred steps, and he hit two points with precision.

Then, Nash dribbled the ball to the front court, changed direction with a cross step, and immediately rushed into the three-point line. The free throw line swayed the ball, shook Gasol's defense, made a three-point layup, and then sent the basketball to the basket. Sky.

Marion, who was keeping up with him, rushed into the basket, jumped up, caught the ball in the air, turned 90 degrees, dunked behind his back, and sent the basketball into the basket with ease, scoring a two-point back dunk.

From the very beginning, the Suns began to exert their strength, hitting an 8-2 spurt to the Grizzlies, and directly stopped the Grizzlies.

However, when the timeout came back, the situation on the field changed suddenly.

The Grizzlies attack, Damon Stoudemire dribbles upfield and runs a pick-and-roll with Gasol pulled high.

Damon then threw the basketball into Gasol's hands. Faced with Nash's misplaced defense, Gasol didn't give up halfway.

Subsequently, the Grizzlies still play pick and roll, this time Gasol received the ball but was pinched by the Suns double.

Gasol didn't mess around, and directly assigned the basketball to the inside. Damon easily caught the ball, jumped up from the basket, stretched and stretched in the air, and after dodging Thomas' block, he hooked his right hand. The basketball rubbed against the backboard and went into the In the basket, two points were scored.

At the critical moment, Gasol didn't let up, and played his own style, whether it was a mid-range shot or a layup or a pass or a screen. He played very comprehensively and connected the overall offensive firepower of the Grizzlies.

Under the leadership of Gasol, the Grizzlies continued their offensive firepower in the first half, and the Suns' defense was defeated steadily, with no power to parry.

Offensively, the Grizzlies played very hard, constantly grabbing points. On defense, the Grizzlies did not lag behind, and strengthened their physical confrontation and defensive strength.

The Grizzlies played both offensive and defensive situations, but the Suns' performance suddenly declined severely in the game against the Grizzlies.

Faced with the Grizzlies' strengthened defense and shrinking defense, the Suns' outside players were very disappointing. Nash missed a three-pointer, Barbosa missed a long-range two-pointer, and Lagabel's three-pointer hit the iron.

The Suns' outside firepower was directly misfired, and the Suns could only attack inside. However, the Suns' inside offense was not much better.

Thomas has no shooting space, nor behind-the-back singles. His ability to evacuate is limited, and he plays hard inside, but it is inefficient.

Marion's cut layup was locked, and he could only attack with an awkward mid-range shot. However, his scoring was a drop in the bucket and could not support the Suns' offensive firepower at all.

After the third quarter, the Grizzlies had a sharp offense and a solid defense. They played a wonderful offense and defense. They beat the Suns to a 28-16 attack wave, and they pulled the score to 16 points strongly, taking away the victory of the game. Wind direction of victory.

The game started in the fourth quarter, and the Suns, who fell to 16 points, also played very hard, and the touch of three-pointers and mid-range shots will come back. They played a violent offensive and scored 33 points in a single quarter.

It's just that the Suns didn't do a good job defensively. They couldn't prevent the Grizzlies from scoring points at all, allowing them to easily score 29 points and laugh at the end of the game.

At the end of the game, the Memphis Grizzlies played a full-blown offense, 117 to 105, leading the Phoenix Suns by 12 points, defeated the Suns, and won three consecutive victories.
