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

The tiebreaker, where the winner advances and the loser is eliminated, has always been the most popular game in every series in the NBA.

The Suns and the Mavericks, both teams have their own advantages in such a game.

The sun's advantage is undoubtedly the home court!

Ling Yang's lore in the last game of the regular season helped the Suns defeat the Mavericks, coming from behind and reversing the Mavericks to rank second in the Western Conference.

This incident, before Game [-] of the Western Conference Finals, was once again dug up by the media.

As for the Mavericks, their richer experience is their advantage.

The Suns only started to rise last season, and the Mavericks have been a strong contender for the Western Conference playoffs in recent years, at least the core players and system are like this.

At the same time, the Mavericks also defeated the Spurs in the tiebreaker in the last round, and they are undoubtedly richer in experience.

In the playoffs, no one will ever ignore the importance of experience, because it means stronger psychology and ability to withstand pressure.

And this kind of ability, the more important it is in key games.

For a while, the outside world had different opinions on who could advance, and it was divided [-]-[-].

Phoenix local time on June 6th, at 5:7 pm, the much-anticipated Western Conference tiebreaker is about to start. At this moment, there is a lot of noise inside and outside the West West Arena.

The number of Suns fans gathered outside the American West Arena is also the most in recent years.

In the American West Arena, although the game has not yet started, all kinds of shouts and clamor filled the entire arena.

Even D'Antoni's tactical emphasis before the game had to be heard by everyone in Lingyang.

In the commentary booth, the duo of TNT and El-McCoin, who had won the right to broadcast the tiebreaker, also had to raise their volume.

"The starting players of both sides are on the field, and the game is about to start!"

Charles Barkley's voice is a little high at the moment, and I don't know if he recalls the exciting moment of leading the team to the finals in this arena.

The starters of the two teams played, nothing new.

The Suns are Stoudemire, Marion, Ling Yang, Bell, and Nash, and the Mavericks are Diop, Nowitzki, Howard, Terry, and Harris.

Both teams have deployed the most commonly used starting lineups in this round of the series. After all, the series is now the seventh game. Both teams have seen the various changes of the two teams. What do you want to play at this time? Surprise is unlikely.

That being the case, the two sides will come up with the most confident lineup, which is to fight hard and play hard.

"Suns! Suns!"

Ever since the Suns players came out of the locker room, the cheering on the scene has not stopped at all. At this moment, when the starting players came to the field, the cheering and cheering became louder and louder.

Listening to the louder shouts than the previous games, Ling Yang also felt his blood surging.

After bouncing lightly, Ling Yang could feel the power about to surge out from his body.

In the past two games, he still played well on the defensive end, but his offensive performance can only be said to be average.

...So I was holding back a lot of energy in my heart, waiting to be released.

Even though the tiebreaker hadn't started yet, his game was already upsurge enough.

"drop!

"

At the referee's whistle, Stoudemire and Diop jumped the ball to help the Suns win the first offense.

Nash controlled the ball to the halfcourt, and there were not too many teammates in position. He pointed to Stoudemire for a pick-and-roll, and then, Nash dribbled directly into the three-point line.

Since Nash broke out in Game [-], the Mavericks have obviously paid more attention to the defense of Nash's scoring.

Immediately, Diop quickly flashed out from behind to help defend, creating time for Harris to keep up with the defense.

At this time, Nash did not wait for Stoudemire to move to find an opportunity. Facing Diop's defense change, Nash dribbled the ball slightly and made a fake change of direction. Sudden acceleration.

The flexibility of playing small and big is fully displayed in Nash at this moment.

When Diop reacted, Nash had already rushed past Diop and went straight to the basket!

At this moment, whether it is Diop or Harris, they can only chase after Nash.

The other players on the Mavericks' side obviously didn't expect Nash to break through so resolutely after the opening, and they didn't have time to help defend.

With a light pick, Nash played a time difference in Diop's defense and helped the team score 2 points steadily.

Nash completed the first round of the Suns' offense and came to the other side. The Mavericks' first offense was also handed over to Nowitzki.

In the past few games, Nowitzki's offensive state has been very good, with 30+ in one game and 40+ in one game, which is undoubtedly the most critical part of the Mavericks' offense.

So the Mavericks also hope to help Nowitzki find a good state early.

With this ball, Nowitzki wanted a very deep position. After receiving the pass from Harris, Nowitzki continued to attack inside, squeezing Marion directly into the penalty area, and then turned around. , Using his height to force Marion to hit the board and hit two points.

Because Nowitzki asked for a position very deeply, Marion's hand movements were not small. The referee took a look, but he didn't blow his whistle.

The ball was handed over to the Suns to continue the offense. Nash played a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire again. This time, Nash did not choose to attack by himself, but gave the ball to Stoudemire after the split.

It's just that Stoudemire's mid-range jumper faced Diop's defense, but it bounced out of the basket.

Then the next moment, near the three-second zone, a figure suddenly burst out, jumped high and took off the rebound, and cheers erupted suddenly from the scene.

"Amale missed a shot, Ling Chong grabbed an offensive rebound..."

It was Ling Yang who grabbed the offensive rebound.

In the last two games, Ling Yang was given the most attention on the offensive end, and it was a bit uncomfortable to be defended. The same is true in this game. In the two rounds just now, Howard stuck to the defense tightly and did not allow Ling Yang to catch up easily. ball chance.

Since you don't give me a chance, then I will create my own chance!

Just now, Josh Howard was just a little inattentive, and Ling Yang found the space directly and started rushing.

... And at this moment, the offensive rebound was indeed in his hands.

After getting the ball in half a step outside the three-second zone, Ling Yang turned around after landing and faced the basket.

The next moment, without waiting for the Mavericks players to post it, they will directly pull it up on the spot!

Shoot!

Attacking Ling Yang who is full of desire, this series of actions is not sloppy at all!

Diop and Josh Howard beside Ling Yang didn't expect Ling Yang to attack so simply. When they realized that they wanted to defend, they were already a step behind.

The basketball was drawn from Ling Yang's fingertips, passed over the palms that Diop and Howard were trying to block, and fell steadily into the basket.

"The offense really needs to be more diverse!" Ling Yang sighed inwardly as he stepped back.

It is undeniable that his impact is indeed excellent, but because the means of finishing are mainly layups or dunks in the three-second zone, it is still too easy to be targeted.

Although the ability to handle the ball in the breakthrough still needs to be improved, the breakthrough and close-range shots need to be better combined, which can make it more difficult for defensive players to defend.

Thinking in this way, the speed of Ling Yang's retreat was not affected in the slightest. He came to halftime early, and after Josh Howard arrived, Ling Yang was the first to stick to the defense.

Howard felt Ling Yang's defense, and his teeth itch with hatred.

Throughout the 7 games in the series, Ling Yang adopted this defensive strategy. As a result, Howard's chances of holding the ball dropped extremely significantly in this series.

After all, Howard is not the first choice for the Mavericks to attack. Under such circumstances, whether it is Harris or Terry, they will hesitate to choose to give the ball to a person who is entangled by the best defensive player of the year.

In addition, Howard's running without the ball is not outstanding, and more of his chances to catch the ball actually come from Lingyang's defense.

Harris still chose to hand the ball to Terry. With the help of the pick-and-roll with Nowitzki, Terry dribbled the ball into the three-point line, gaining space from Bell's defense, and Terry immediately made a mid-range emergency stop jump shot. shot.

This is exactly what Terry is best at scoring.

Just for this goal, Bell's defense was also good enough. Although he was slightly disturbed by Nowitzki, he still followed up quickly.

At the same time as Terry was shooting, Bell swooped in from the side and rear, which caused a lot of interference to Terry.

"Bang!" Terry's shot bounced out of the basket.

At this time, Marion was pulled near the three-point line by Nowitzki. Naturally, Ling Yang would not let Stoudemire stay inside alone to grab rebounds, and quickly rushed into the three-second zone.

It's just that Terry's shot rebounded extremely fast. Even Ling Yang didn't react for a while, and stretched out his hand, but still couldn't catch the ball.

The basketball passed by Ling Yang, and happened to fall into the hands of Josh Howard, who followed closely.

Howard was overjoyed when he got the ball. He got an offensive rebound and was closer to the three-second zone. This is an opportunity!

Thinking of Ling Yang's surprise just after grabbing the front board, Howard almost thought about it, holding the ball and jumping directly, he wanted to copy Ling Yang's second attack just now.

... However, when Howard jumped up holding the ball, his face changed slightly, because at this moment, Ling Yang had turned around and jumped up in front of him, and the long arm reached the top of his head .

A huge pressure hit his face, Howard couldn't help but stabilize his mind at the moment, and at the same time stabilized his hands holding the ball, trying hard to resist the interference caused by Ling Yang's defense, and then moved his five fingers to throw the ball.

Howard did all this, thinking in his heart that he had a chance to make a shot, just wanting to reduce Ling Yang's defensive interference.

However, what he didn't see was that Ling Yang, who was standing in front of him at the moment, had sparkles in his eyes.

"Still want to shoot?"

While roaring like this in his heart, Ling Yang's big hand swung forward quickly!

"Snapped!"

At the moment Howard was about to shoot, Ling Yang's big hand covered the front of the basketball!

Ling's spicy hot pot, reappearing in the American West Arena!

Immediately, the entire American West Arena was stirred like a hot pot!

"Oh, beautiful cover!

! ”

"Ling knocked down Josh Howard's shot! Basketball...

Steve got it, the sun's chance!

"

Howard only felt a strong force coming from the ball, but when he tried to throw the ball again, he couldn't do it. The next moment, the basketball was directly dialed down by this force.

Even Howard, because he had no point of strength in the air when he took off, was forced to land by Ling Yang's blocking power and staggered a little after landing.

However, at this time, no one took care of him.

Because the dropped basketball was picked up by Nash, who rushed over quickly, the next moment, the Suns players rushed forward like crazy.

Even though the Mavericks' players retreated quickly, facing the sun's collective running and bombing at this moment, they couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

And this also led to the inevitable loopholes in the Mavericks' defense.

Such a loophole will naturally not be ignored by the Suns. For the Suns players who are good at finding fast break opportunities, they are all looking for opportunities at this moment.

Naturally, the same is true for Ling Yang. Needless to say, his speed is extremely fast, but at this moment he has not chosen to fully display his speed.

He faintly took a step against Howard behind him, but he didn't choose to rush to the front.

Entering the half court, coming beyond the three-point line, seeing Nash, Bell, Marion, and Stoudemire all attracting their respective opponents, at this moment, Ling Yang's eyes suddenly appeared A channel that cuts directly under the basket.

Ling Yang continued to run forward, and Howard continued to follow one step behind.

On Mavericks' side, when they saw Howard, everyone followed Ling Yang's side and took a step behind, so they didn't want to block Ling Yang's running.

And just after crossing the free throw line, Ling Yang suddenly took a step to the side, rushed past Stoudemire and Diop, then suddenly accelerated and went straight to the basket!

Howard Lingyang's sudden acceleration was directly thrown away, and it was too late for Diop to shrink directly to the basket at this moment.

Ling Yang is watching many Mavericks players around him at the moment, but no one can stop him from approaching the basketball.

And at the same time that Ling Yang was accelerating forward, Nash was also keenly aware of Ling Yang's opportunity. With a push of his wrist, the ball flew directly into the air of the penalty area from outside the three-point line.

"Good come!"

Ling Yang, who was rushing, glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw that the ball in Nash's hand had been delivered, and immediately felt a burst of admiration in his heart!

Thanks to being one of the best passing point guards in the league, Nash's ball, whether it is the timing or the position of the ball, is perfect.

If there is only a slight flaw, it may be that Nash is worried that the Mavericks will cut the ball halfway and pass the ball a little higher.

However, height has never been a problem for Ling Yang!

The soles of Ling's feet in the rush stomped heavily on the floor, and rose into the air!

"coax!

"

Seeing this scene, the scene suddenly boiled!

And in the commentary booth, El-McCoyin also began to shout excitedly:

"Ling cuts to the basket from the middle, Steve's pass, Ling, he's coming!"

Amidst the cheers at the scene and the shouts of El McCaw Yin, Ling Yang leaped high and grabbed the basketball in the air with both hands. Grab the ball!

"Bang! Great goal! City of lobs, Phoenix!"

"Ling blocked the block and counterattacked to complete the alley-oop! This is the best defensive player of the year, the best rookie! Even in the seventh game of the Western Conference Finals, he is still full of vitality!
