After halftime, the Grizzlies led the Suns 59-56 to 56 and entered the halftime break.

Sun Ce played for 14 minutes in the first half, scoring 4 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block. Nash played the whole first half, scoring 11 points, 9 assists, and almost half a double-double.

Coach Hollins replaced Sun Ce with Conley, Tony Allen, Paul George, Bathirl, Jordan Jr.'s lineup was trying to get the defense, but the Suns didn't replace Nash.

Gentry knew that the team had no chance to enter the playoffs. Of course, the team still shouted "We will definitely enter the playoffs", but look at the current eighth Trail Blazers in the West, with 19 wins and 13 losses in 32 games.

, and the Trail Blazers were once fourth in the West.

The top eight teams are all monsters, and Gentry is very sure they don't have a chance.

So when Nash is in good condition, let Nash play more. Nash plays well, the game will be good. The fans are happy, Nash is happy, and Gentry is happy. Returning to the home court can still attract fans to sell tickets, and the boss is happy, everyone

All are happy.

Because of the coaching transaction between Sloan and Thibodeau, the head coaches of many teams with poor record have begun to be cautious. It is okay if they are not capable, but the most feared is the head coach who has the ability and the team has big problems.

It's okay to be traded to a big city. For example, when you go to New York, the capital of the United States, Gentry is very happy and can continue to play and run happily, but if you go to Minnesota...

Although the probability is not high, Gentry still has to be on guard. After all, he is also a very good coach in the league.

However, Nash played really well tonight. Conley and Tony Allen led the team to consciously suppress the rhythm and play defense, but they still failed to suppress the momentum of the Suns. Fortunately, Moro was Mo in the second half of the second quarter.

Luo Lian made two three-pointers and withstood the Suns' impact.

The rhythm cannot be suppressed, which is directly related to the lack of Gasol Jr. Originally, there was Gasol Jr. inside and Tony Allen outside. The two played together, accompanied by Sun Ce or Conley, Bathil or Paul

-George, plus Randolph, can peel off any team a layer of skin.

But Gasol is not here, and it is difficult to really kill his opponent's slow-paced play.

Just like Randolph's importance on the offensive end, the Double Bears are the foundation of the Grizzlies.

The tactics revolve around Sun Ce. From the beginning, Sun Ce was just a substitute to drive rotation, but now it has gradually become Sun Ce's presence, and both offense and defense revolve around him.

In fact, this style of play has great flaws. For example, if Sun Ce continues, his offense is very single, leaving only Gasol and Conley to cooperate in the organization of the offense and have to go on the two paths of Randolph's singles together.

But the Grizzlies are not afraid of being single in offense, they can score goals and get some points. Their focus is on defense. No matter how bad the offense is, it will not be as bad as the Bobcats.

...

After returning from halftime, the Grizzlies continued to send Conley, Tony Allen, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, Jordan Jr.'s lineup and the opponent's grin.

On the Suns, Nash was also replaced and rested for a while, and replaced Brooks, Carter led the team, Dudley, Hakeem Warrick, and Lopez Jr.

With Nash, the Suns can also have the strength of the Eastern Conference playoff team and have fierce offensive firepower. Without Nash, Brooks will control the ball, and Carter will not be able to touch the ball!

The game began to revolve around rebounding. The double emperor combination was obviously much better than Lopez Jr. and Varick, who was already 29 years old, in terms of rebounding.

Jordan and Yi Jianlian have been playing for a long time, and have developed tacit understanding and some small cooperation.

Relying on the speed of the two, they will play and cooperate if they have the opportunity to cooperate. The one directly below the basket is responsible for the position, and the one who is farther away is responsible for the rush.

If you are playing against the Lakers, Mavericks, and Celtics, teams with a lot of big inside players and these big men have excellent positioning skills, this move is not good and will occasionally be used in reverse, such as playing against the Mavericks.

When.

But for the Suns, who have not been accustomed to being stuck in positions for many years, Yi Jianlian, who is more agile, and Jordan, who is getting more and more powerful in the striker skills, Yi Jianlian scored 6 points and 3 rebounds in the middle of the quarter, all of which were offensive rebounds!

The Grizzlies have rebounding guarantees when they hit the ball, and Brooks hits them just to give Jordan Jr.

With the two teams working together to score 8 rebounds in the half quarter, the Grizzlies scored a 14-6 scoring shock wave.

73 to 62, the Grizzlies led by 11 points.

When the Grizzlies widened the gap to 11 points, Gentry called a timeout.

After the suspension, both sides sent their head point guards.

Sun Ce brought Morrow, Paul George, Sam Yang and Yi Jianlian's lineup to the court.

Nash brought Josh Childries, Dudley, Hill and Fry's lineup.

They are all lineups that run and attack.

As long as Nash is present, they will definitely be equipped with a running and bombing lineup. Without Stoudemire, they will have no pursuit. Just play happily and try hard to win.

Coach Hollins chose to accept his fate.

This time, Nash lost the magic of 11+9 in the first half. He didn't have a minute to rest in the first half. It was a bit tired for Nash. After all, he was 37 years old for more than a month. He played 30-33 minutes each game.

His limit was that he had played the game in half this time, and after a long delay, he could not recover to his best condition.

Of course, veterans will occasionally experience situations when their physical strength declines, but it is impossible to happen every day, at least not in this game.

The Suns did not narrow the gap, and Carter returned to the court to play singles without any effect, and Hill was unable to support him.

Carter + Nash + Hill, this trio that could be regarded as a dream combination if it was not hurt at the beginning of the century, can only watch the opponent sweat freely.

In the 11th minute of the third quarter, Sun Ceyi Jianlian broke through the pick-and-roll to the middle distance on the right. When Hill changed defense, he grabbed the ball with his right hand but did not touch the ball. Instead, he slapped the ball with his left hand to the right, and Hill

It's gone!

Tim Hardaway occasionally played one-on-one fights with Sun Ce after training. Sun Ce intentionally learned this small move and suddenly used it in the changing position of the highway!

Sun Ce jumped to the right, and the beautiful frame single-handed move and jumped!

At this time, Carter rushed over and scored 20 points.

Sun Ce took off in this way, but he didn't notice where his teammate was. The jumping height was not enough and he could not pass the ball in the air. He could only do his best to lean back and avoid Carter's block...

When Sun Ce lies over 60 degrees, the system prompts it!

Sun Ce pushed the ball out in a nearly lying position, but he tried to exert force perfectly!

He shot the ball away from such a large number of old-age Carter, and made a mid-range jump shot from one step away from the free throw line!

When the ball was thrown out, the fans at the scene were exclaiming, with fear in their exclamation, afraid that Sun Ce would be injured.

But unexpectedly, Sun Ce actually threw the ball in!

And the balance is well maintained and it is landed steadily!

Watching Sun Ce throw the ball into the ground, then quickly get up and pat his butt and run back, Gentry on the sidelines called a timeout.

Isn't this Nash's post-lying jump shot?

Such a big body, a huge figure that is 1 cm taller than Nash, can actually play this trick!

This flexibility, this balance...

Gentry has always been paying attention to Sun Ce and admires Sun Ce's attitude of maintaining hard training. Yes, as the head coach, Gentry must use admiration to describe such a player.

But I didn't expect that this guy would practice these strange tricks in a good manner!

Even Nash, who was watching the show next to him, couldn't help laughing.

He felt that one day everything he would be learned by this kid!

Sun Ce was so excited that he would definitely wail and try to see if he could trick the referee. He would definitely not throw in and get up and run away.

90-69, the Grizzlies scored so high. Sun Ce walked back to the bench and knew he would be replaced.

I looked at a rare prompt in the system prompt just now.

"Steve Nash's shooting skills were triggered at level 2 after lying down. The host's fallback jump shot ignored the loss of balance caused by excessive fallback."

Ignoring the impact of the jump shot on the jump shot on the jump, ignoring the loss of balance of excessive backwardness... A skill obtained by Nowitzki and a skill obtained by Nash, unexpectedly combined it into one piece!

The two of them really practiced skills together!

Just to combine these two moves together... Sun Ce himself didn't know how he just hit the ball, so he felt that he was on the blood and fucked the ball.

He really can't do it if he asks him to do it again.

...

Sure enough, both teams replaced the main players. Because Brooks was sent to the opponent's garbage time, Conley also replaced the Grizzlies, and they were with Morrow and Bathir, and Sam Young and Haddadi inside.

.

Jason Williams also wanted to show a pass to Sun Ce, so he had to wait for the next chance.

He wants to let the team see that he can now switch perfectly in both normal passes and normal passes.

Jason Williams feels his life is so miserable!

During the peak period of athletic ability, these two events were not combined. Only when a game was played well at most seven or eight minutes, did you have such awareness, ability and experience.

This is the difference between ordinary stars and real superstars.

In the end, the Grizzlies defeated the Suns 119-101 and won the third victory in 4 games in 5 days.

4 games in 5 days, 3 wins and 1 loss, and this result is very excellent.

Sun Ce scored 19 points in the third quarter today, scoring 11 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, which is not as good as Nash's 14 points and 11 assists, but it is not bad either. Sun Ce has much less playing time.

In fact, Nash currently has A+ level abilities, but it’s a pity that he lacks one superstar insider.

...

The Grizzlies played a beautiful finish this year, with 25 wins and 7 losses, second in the West! Second in the league!

After playing against the Suns, the Grizzlies got three days off. Although No. 4 and No. 5 are back-to-back, there are only 13 games in January, and the overall situation is very relaxing. No. 4 and No. 5 are back-to-back this time.

But after practicing Nash training, he returned home and took a shower and hugged his little sister to sleep. Sun Ce looked at the team manual issued after the game tonight, and saw the two opponents, No. 4 and No. 5...

Magic, Mavericks!

Play back to back at home!
