NBA: I haven't played a game but I'm full of talent

Entering the first game in March, the Suns' opponent is the Heat who lost to each other in the previous few days.

Last time, the two teams played against each other in Miami, but this time, they came to the home court of the Phoenix Suns.

The fans of the Suns are as enthusiastic as ever in the American West Arena.

At this time, the two resident commentators on the scene, El McCaw Yin and Eddie Johnson, were chatting about the current situation of the team.

"Before the game, the Suns announced that Amare Stoudemire will miss the entire season, which is very bad news for the Suns.

The good news is that Kurt Thomas will officially return in this game, which is very important for the team. "

Al McCoyin said, Johnson immediately answered: "Yes, against the Heat with the Sharks, it is very important to have a good low-post defensive player like Kurt.

The last time the two teams played against each other, Shaquille played too easily inside the Suns. Kurt's return should alleviate this problem to a certain extent.

Another thing worth looking forward to in this game is that Ling will return to the starting lineup.

This is the team's eight-game winning streak two months ago. We are very much looking forward to the team's more help from Kurt and Ling in this game. "

"Yes, both sides and players are ready to enter the field, let's take a look at the specific starting lineups of both sides."

"Miami Heat, center Shaquille O'Neal, power forward Udonis Haslem, small forward James Posey, shooting guard Dwyane Wade, point guard Jason Williams."

"Home team Phoenix Suns, center Kurt Thomas, power forward Sean Marion, small forward Ling Yang, shooting guard Raja Bell, point guard Steve Nash..."

Shortly after the two introduced the starters, the referee blew the whistle to start the game.

Kurt Thomas and O'Neal jumped the ball, but it was Thomas who helped the Suns get the ball first.

Nash took the ball to the outside of the three-point line, and Thomas, who had just completed the jump ball, immediately mentioned the high post for Nash's pick-and-roll.

Although O'Neal is no longer young, his lethality and deterrence at the basket still exist, so the first idea of ​​the Suns to launch an offense is to bring O'Neal out of the three-second zone.

It just so happens that Kurt Thomas has a good mid-range shot, which is just right for Nash's pick-and-roll.

However, O'Neill did not fully follow the ball.

He still stayed near the three-second zone. In this way, although Jason Williams squeezed past Kurt Thomas to keep up with Nash, he completely emptied Kurt Thomas.

Nash hit the ground and passed the ball to Thomas on the left side of the free throw line.

After receiving the ball, Thomas directly dialed it up and made a decisive shot!

This is also the tactic that D'Antoni arranged before the game. Thomas must make a decisive shot as long as he has a chance in the middle distance.

Let the Heat's defense pay the price.

With this shot, Thomas shot very resolutely, and scored the ball very simply, making a steady hit with a hollow basket.

After his comeback, Thomas showed a very good state.

Coming to the other end of the Heat, it is also the point of playing center. O'Neal fell to the low post and asked for the ball to single Kurt Thomas.

In the first round, the Suns did not double-team, and Kurt Thomas actually defended very well, but O'Neal still relied on his own strength and tonnage to squeeze Thomas into the three-second zone and attack the basket successfully.

The first round of the game between the two sides was more like a trial move.

When the Suns launched an offense and came to the other side, they immediately discovered the changes in the Heat's defense.

It was still Nash and Thomas' pick-and-roll, and O'Neal still shrunk to the basket, but when Nash passed the ball to Thomas, and Thomas shot, he was interfered by someone.

James Posey.

James Posey, who was defending Lingyang, abandoned Lingyang and rushed forward to interfere with Thomas' shot.

Interferenced, Thomas failed to hit the ball, and the ball bounced out of the basket.

Although Ling Yang rushed into the inside line, he was a little slower and was blocked by O'Neill, and the ball fell into the hands of the big shark.

The Heat are changing, and the Suns' defense is also changing. When O'Neal once again received a pass in the low post to single Kurt Thomas, the Heat's help defense arrived.

Marion left Haslem and flanked O'Neal.

If it is O'Neal at his peak, even if two people attack, he will still attack when it is time to attack.

In the past two years, O'Neal has played more restrained.

Facing the pincer attack, O'Neal handed the ball to Haslem, who made a mid-range shot before Ling Yang's defense was in place.

Haslem also has a good mid-range shot, which is an important reason why he can have a stable scoring performance in the game.

The change of the two rounds also means that the two teams' attempts on the defensive end are over.

So when it came to the other half, Nash no longer chose to pick and roll with Kurt Thomas, but chose to pick and roll with Marion.

Haslem is different from O'Neal shrinking inside, but defends very outside. After Marion picks and rolls, he even directly delays the top.

And Nash, after attracting the attention of White Chocolate Jason Williams and Haslem with the pick-and-roll, passed the ball to Marion on the roll.

Marion, who received the pass from Nash, dribbled the ball directly through the opponent's defense before Haslem returned to the defense.

And at the basket, O'Neal has been waiting there early.

Marion didn't try to challenge O'Neal who was standing under the basket. With a smooth push, the ball came to Kurt Thomas again.

At this point, Kurt Thomas has moved to the middle distance to the right of the free throw line.

And James Posey, who was defending Ling Yang at the bottom corner, abandoned Ling Yang again and rushed towards Thomas.

In the previous round, Thomas was disturbed by Posey when he was shooting, so this round, he paid special attention to the movement of the other party.

After seeing Percy coming again, Thomas subconsciously looked for Ling Yang.

Then, he saw that Ling Yang was cutting towards the basket along the baseline, and without hesitation, he quickly transferred the ball and sent it to Ling Yang.

Ling Yang did cut towards the basket immediately after James Posey left, and when he received the pass, he happened to be about one meter away from the three-second zone.

As for the inside line, because O'Neill didn't pull out to the outside, at this time, he just turned around and blocked the three-second zone on this side.

"Ling cuts in and receives a pass from Kurt, but he is facing Shaquille. The Heat's defensive rotation is very beautiful today. Is Ling going to challenge the Shaquille?"

McCaw Yin's voice began to increase in volume, and the next moment, he exclaimed!

"Ling...he made a shot!"

McCaw Yin's voice at the moment was even more shocking than Ling Yang's strong dunk against O'Neal's defense.

Yes, Ling Yang made a shot!

About one meter away from the three-second zone, Ling Yang, who was still cutting in, stopped and took off to shoot!

This time, not only McCaw Yin was shocked, but the fans at the scene, and even all the players and coaching staff of the Suns were surprised.

Ling Yang, this...is not a conventional attack!

Ling Yang, who was shooting at the moment, ignored the shock of the people on the scene. Probably no one in the Heat team thought that Ling Yang would shoot, so not only O'Neal failed to defend, but also the rest of the players did not step forward to defend, which made Ling Yang completely disappointed. It belongs to the state of open shooting.

Although Ling Yang's shooting has not been very good all the time, his shooting movements are surprisingly standard, coupled with his slender figure and high jump, this ordinary shooting looks very picturesque.

Of course, what shocked everyone at the scene the most was not how handsome Ling Yang's posture was at this time, but...

"Shh!"

With the sound of clearing the net, the ball scored!

Ling Yang made a two-pointer!

"Ling... made a shot!"

After a second or two, McCaw Yin spoke out, his tone full of surprise.

He even asked Johnson uncertainly: "Hey, Eddie, did you see that? Ling made a two-pointer. I'm not dazzled, am I?"

Johnson was also surprised at the moment, "Man, although I also have some doubts, but if you see the same scene, I think it is real."

At this moment, McCaw Yin burst out laughing, and shouted happily: "It turns out that we were not mistaken, Ling did make a shot!

God, he's really daring to shoot, if I remember correctly, this is the first time Ling has shot in a sports game. "

Not only the two commentators were surprised, but everyone on the scene was surprised.

The fans at the scene were all in an uproar at the moment, laughing and talking one after another.

"OMG, Ling actually made a shot, which is more surprising than him jumping and dunking from the free throw line."

"Maybe Ling was scared by Shaquille just now, so he tried to shoot a basket and then went in."

……

The whole arena, after Ling Yang's shot, suddenly became joyful.

Even the Suns' coaching staff, D'Antoni, Gentry and others, had smiles on their faces at the moment.

In the field, Marion, who was retreating to the other side, even ran to Ling Yang's side deliberately, patted Ling Yang's firm butt, and winked:

"Ling, you actually made a shot? And you made it?"

"It's just a shot." Ling Yang had an expression on his face, and then ran two steps quickly, and said to Nash:

"Steve, I feel hot today. If I have the opportunity, I can make a few more passes."

After hearing this, Nash immediately smiled. He nodded, but he didn't take it seriously.

Although Ling Yang made a shot, it was rare, but it was just a shot. Nash didn't take what Ling Yang said about the hot feeling in his heart, and thought that Ling Yang was joking.

At this time, the fans at the scene returned to calm after the uproar.

Although it looked strange, Ling Yang was just a shot after all, so after enjoying it, everyone didn't take it seriously.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Ling Yang also twitched his lips.

It seems that everyone thinks it was an accident, isn't it just a shot?Who do you look down on?I'll bring you some later.

Thinking of this, Ling Yang ran away from Nash, and quickly followed Posey.

The Heat's offense has also undergone some changes. Williams did not directly hand over the ball to O'Neal. The ball came into the hands of star star Wade.

After catching the ball, Wade took advantage of the trend and used his speed to directly break through Bell's defense, and then shot a jumper with an emergency stop at a mid-range distance one step outside the three-second zone.

Although Bell was a little out of position before, the interference he gave at this time was enough, and it successfully affected Wade's shooting.

The ball bounced out of the basket, and Ling Yang quickly rushed to the basket to protect the rebound.

The Heat are the team with the most rebounds in the league. Before the game, D'Antoni specifically confessed that he must pay special attention to rebounding, and Ling Yang must fight for every ball!

After grabbing the rebound, Ling Yang's first thought was to ask Nash to push a fast break, but at this time, the Heat's defense retreated quickly, and the Suns were forced to fall into a positional battle again.

Nash hopes to increase the diversity of tactics, so this round, he did not choose to pick and roll again, but let Bell and Marion run.

It's just that the Heat's defense is also very good, especially Wade and Bell follow very closely, and they don't give the latter a chance to catch and shoot.

On Marion's side, although Haslem's agility was excellent, when Marion rushed past Ling Yang, Posey decisively chose to switch defenses to keep up.

Seeing that his teammates had no way to directly run out of good offensive opportunities, Nash once again played a pick-and-roll with Thomas.

At this time, the Heat continued to implement the previous defensive strategy, and O'Neal fell near the three-second zone.

But this time, Thomas didn't get the chance to catch the ball. When Thomas moved towards the free throw line, Haslem, who was defending Lingyang outside the three-second zone on the right, rushed over directly, obviously guarding against Nash. pass the ball.

In this way, Ling Yang will be free!

Subconsciously, Nash passed the ball to Ling Yang.

O'Neal turned around quickly, looked at Ling Yang, moved his footsteps a little, and then withdrew again.

First, he didn't want the basket to be emptied after he left. Second, O'Neal didn't think that Ling Yang, whose shooting was not much better than his own, could really shoot again.

In O'Neill's view, Sunny Eighty-Nine will choose to hit the basket directly.

Then, Ling Yang once again made everyone on the scene open their mouths in shock.

Take off, shoot!

Ling Yang's actions were extremely decisive!

Ling Yang's shooting is extremely stretched!

The crisp sound is extremely pleasant!

"Shh!"

Shoot and hit again!

This time, McCaw Yin did not question any more, but directly shouted in surprise:

"Ling made two shots in a row, which is unbelievable, so Ling has developed shooting?"

"A Ling Yang who can shoot, wow, the slam dunk king has been upgraded!

"

"Clap clap clap!"

McCaw Yin was shouting, and the fans on the sidelines were applauding.

He made two shots in a row, and Ling Yang's shots were so decisive, even the fans could tell that Ling Yang was not lucky, but really had a certain shooting grasp!

This made the fans at the scene burst into applause.

Everyone knows that Ling Yang's shooting is not good, but now, Ling Yang can shoot, how can this not surprise the fans.

Of course, the most surprising thing is the Suns' players and coaching staff.

D'Antoni turned his head and asked Gentry directly: "Alvin, what happened to Ling's shooting?"

He also knows that Gentry usually spends a lot of time in contact with Ling Yang for training.

Gentry smiled and shook his head, "Although Ling has been training with a trainer recently, he trains more on layups. As for shooting... maybe he trains himself."

D'Antoni nodded when he heard it. He had also seen Ling Yang practicing close-range shooting. He even thought that in yesterday's training match, Ling Yang made a shot.

Obviously, Ling Yang has indeed mastered it.

So a smile appeared on his face immediately, "This is really a surprise for us."

Originally Lingyang's impact on the basket was very important to D'Antoni, and it was also an important reason why Lingyang was able to sit firmly in the starting lineup.

And now, Ling Yang actually still has one hand to shoot.

Although the distance of these two shots is not far, about one meter outside the three-second zone, combined with Ling Yang's usual shooting training, he can guess that Ling Yang should not shoot too far.

But even that is fine.

Ling Yang's offensive threat on the field will be greater, his ability to tear up the defensive space will be stronger, and the team's tactics will be more changeable.

D'Antoni was pleasantly surprised on the sidelines, and so were most of the Suns players on the field. Nash, who received an assist, looked at Ling Yang unexpectedly, with a pleasant smile on his face.

"So Ling said just now that his hand feels hot, isn't it fake?"

After understanding the meaning of Nash's eyes, Ling Yang immediately raised his head.

Isn't it just shooting?Who do you look down on!

Ling Yang ran to the backcourt with cheerful steps to retreat.

Only the Heat players who were a little messy in the wind were left behind. O'Neal showed a question mark face at this time, and while taking the ball out of the baseline for free throws, he spread his hands and looked at his teammates.

"This guy can still shoot?"

Several Heat players looked at each other, but no one was able to answer.

They don't know what's going on.

Yes, why did Ling Yang suddenly know how to shoot?This is different from what Pat Laili's coaching staff analyzed before the game!

Heat coach Pat Laili, who was a magician on the sidelines, was also a little surprised at this time. He did the calculations, but he really didn't count how many consecutive shots Lingyang would make after the opening.

In this way, it disrupted the Heat's opening defensive arrangement.

However, Laili can still bear his temper, so at this time, he still sits firmly on the Diaoyutai.

The Heat's attack again still chose to launch from O'Neal. The Suns flanked very quickly, and Marion once again stepped up to assist the defense, forcing O'Neal to hand the ball to Haslem.

Marion's return to the defense was also quick, and Haslem had no choice but to return the ball to Wade on the outside.

Bell's defense is actually very good, but at this time Wade's physical condition is at its peak, he started and added a change of direction, using his excellent speed, the Flash still found a breakthrough space from Bell's side, and then killed basket.

Taking advantage of Kurt Thomas' help to defend the pass, Wade stuffed the ball to O'Neal under the basket.

The big shark ravaged a basket again.

The Suns re-launched the attack. This ball, Kurt Thomas sent the ball very quickly, and Nash's advancement speed was also very fast.

After halftime, when the Heat's defensive formation was not completely settled, Nash passed the ball to Bell who was outside the three-point line.

When Bell received the ball, he also directly shot a three-pointer.

It's a pity that Bell's first shot today didn't feel good, and it ended in a strike.

At this time, O'Neal on the Sun's side had just retreated, and the Heat's rebounds were not in place, which undoubtedly gave Ling Yang a chance.

He jumped high outside the three-second zone when he was cutting in, and successfully took off the offensive rebound.

Haslem who just rushed over watched Ling Yang grab the offensive rebound, and the next moment, he rushed to it, because at this moment, he saw Ling Yang raised his hand to shoot.

And seeing Haslem rushing up, Ling Yang showed a smile at the corner of his eyes at the moment.
