The Suns won back-to-back games, which sparked a buzz around the league.

There's no way this won't arouse heated debate.

Because the way the Suns won this game was not the more familiar offensive ability, the reason why they were able to win this game relied more on their defense...

If it were other teams that relied on defense to win, fans wouldn't find it surprising, but now, this has happened to the Suns.

This is worthy of everyone's "fuss".

There is nothing we can do about it, let alone other teams, but the Suns have no defense but only offense. This is something that the entire league knows, and it is a view that has existed in the minds of most fans in the league for a long time.

This year the Suns emerged like a dark horse, which was beyond everyone's expectations, but in fact, there are also things that are not unexpected, that is, the style of this team is still the style they are familiar with, it is still the "fast whirlwind"

"!

Speaking of which, this is also the reason why the Suns were not considered the "favorite" until they defeated the Cavaliers. In fact, the luxurious "Quick Tornado" in previous years has proved that it can only rely on offense to win the championship.

If you play defense, you will definitely not be able to win the championship, so this year the Suns are much more powerful than in previous years, but in the eyes of many experts, they still have no hope of winning the championship.

It wasn't until after defeating the Cavaliers that experts discovered that the Suns might have the possibility of winning the championship by relying on their offense. After all, they had an offensive attack that even the league's number one Cavaliers couldn't stop!

But it was only now, after the game, that these people were truly surprised. The reason for surprise was also very simple: the Suns actually showed the unique characteristics of a championship team in this "back-to-back" game.

Their winning temperament, their perseverance was undoubtedly revealed in this game, and more importantly, they actually relied on defense to recover the score bit by bit.

Rely on...defense!

So the question is, a team that has both super offensive ability, very good defensive ability, and very good perseverance... apart from saying it is a championship team, what else can you say?

About four or five days before the start of the All-Star Weekend, the Suns officially revealed all the qualities they have as a championship team!

How can this not be surprising.

"This is a great victory. At least in my opinion, this victory is very precious. Watching them work so hard on the court, for me, this is the luckiest aspect of being a head coach. I am proud to have such a team.

The satisfaction of helping the players, honestly, these guys are great!"

Gentry's confidence in the post-game interview can also show that he is satisfied with the current situation of the Suns!

However, satisfaction is satisfaction. Gentry's use of the Suns in these games is undoubtedly a bit "exceeding the standard". After all, after playing the game against the Cavaliers, he encountered "back-to-back" again.

They won the game, and the second game of the "back-to-back" game was still won by the willpower of the whole team. This was somewhat overdrafted for the physical fitness of all members of the Suns team.

This caused the Suns, who had played back-to-back games, to lose in the next game, which ended their winning streak.

However, despite losing this game, it can be seen from the expressions of everyone in the Suns team after the game that they did not take it too seriously, and it may be because the All-Star Weekend is coming, and the focus of their discussions is the same as that of the whole team.

Celebrity weekend related.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Suns lost to the Philadelphia 76ers tonight - this team is currently ranked sixth in the Eastern Conference, and judging from their overall performance in the Eastern Conference, this year's

Breaking out of the siege in the Eastern Conference is not an easy task. In short, it can be said that this is a team that we should not encounter again this season!

If you lose, you lose.

Losing to them doesn't prove the Suns' shortcomings anyway...

In fact, this is also true, because in the next regular season, the Suns easily defeated the latter, avoiding two consecutive losses, and also let the entire league see what happens when the Suns' physical fitness is fully restored.

time, how powerful they are!

Moreover, the effect of Gentry's "special training" can also be seen from this victory.

Not to mention that the rhythm of this team on both ends of the offense and defense is obviously better than before. Even their cooperation, which was already very good, can now be described as flowing like clouds and flowing water...

"OK, there's no need to discuss anything more now, let's enjoy this holiday!"

However, just like the last game they lost, the reaction of everyone in the Suns team did not change much in this game. Instead, the voices discussing how to spend the All-Star Weekend became louder.

Although it is only the 12th, the Suns will not have a game tomorrow, which means that after this game, all members of the Suns can already enter the All-Star Weekend vacation.

Then what kind of game is there?

Wouldn’t it be nice to take the time to play?

Others didn't know, but Lin Ri didn't answer any of the questions about the game. Instead, he briefly said a few words related to the All-Star Weekend. However, because that day had not officially arrived yet, he didn't say much.

Now Lin Ri's thoughts are similar to those of the Suns. What he is thinking about now is to take a rest first. After all, this is his first season in the league. He has never played a game with this kind of schedule in the past. It is not easy to have such a schedule.

Of course he couldn't let this opportunity pass him by!

Lin Ri's plan is to have a good sleep and go out for a walk. He has made a lot of money in the past six months, but so far he has only had few opportunities to use money. Tomorrow is the time to let him know that he is a rich man.

!

He is going to see a villa...

The reason is also very simple. There is no gym at home now. If he wants to exercise, he has to go to the gym or an outside gym. There are certain disadvantages, especially in the off-season. No matter which gym he goes to, he will probably be surrounded by a bunch of people.

, it’s time to have a gym of your own!

However, this was his original plan. That night when he checked the properties of his panel as usual, he found that... the system had a new task.

And there are three tasks at once!

"New mission: Get the MVP of the Rookie Challenge in the Rookie Challenge!"

"Completion reward: The luck of an ability of your choice is improved, and the effect lasts for one month."

"New mission: win the slam dunk contest championship!"

"Completion reward: The luck of an ability of your choice is improved, and the effect lasts for one month."

"New mission: get the All-Star MVP in the All-Star Game!"

"Completion reward: The luck of an ability of your choice is improved, and the effect lasts for one month."

These three tasks respectively correspond to the three games Lin Ri will play during this year's All-Star Weekend: the Rookie Challenge, the Slam Dunk Contest and the All-Star Game.

Originally, apart from the dunk contest, Lin Ri didn't pay much attention to the other two games.

But now, the system has given out so many tasks that he can't even think about taking them seriously...

Of course, there is a saying. The Rookie Challenge and the All-Star Game are two games that he cannot influence the final result even if he wants to take them seriously. Otherwise, he would not fail to take these two games seriously.

He keeps every game in mind. Now is the time for him to accumulate qualifications. How could he not want honors? Not to mention the MVP of the Rookie Challenge, even an award like Rookie of the Month, he doesn't want to give away!

It's just that the Rookie Challenge is the 2009 class versus the 2008 class. Although they have a phenomenal rookie like him this time, their opponents have already played in this league for a year and have entered the second year of the 2008 class, with average strength.

There is definitely a gap, and one thing you must know... In the eyes of some experts, the 2008 draft was a big year for the draft, while last summer's draft was recognized as a bad year for the draft.

This is enough to illustrate the quality of the players in the two generations. Although the faces of the experts were sore when the 2009 class entered the league, there is one thing that must be admitted. The 2008 class did let everyone know

Well, why are they called the "draft year"!

After everyone in the 2008 class finished their rookie seasons, they were nicknamed the "Ocean's Twelve" because there were twelve rookies in this class who averaged double-digit points per game.

This fully shows the quality of this draft.

And now, this group of very good rookies has gone through one more year of experience than the 2009 rookies, so it is certain that their overall strength will be stronger.

It is also for this reason that Lin Ri is not sure that he can lead the 2009 class to overthrow them.

The necessary prerequisite for winning the Rookie Challenge MVP is to win the game.

You may not win even if you fight with real swords and guns, let alone this is still an entertainment-filled competition - it is useless for him to be serious alone, others must be serious together!

This is a difficult point in the Rookie Challenge.

As for the MVP of the All-Star Game...it's not easy!

First of all, he is too junior. Who knows if those guys will pass the ball to him. As an insider, if there is no guarantee of the ball, it is basically impossible to get the highest score in the team!

So at the beginning of these two games, Lin Ri's idea was to try his best to win if he could. If he couldn't win, then wait until next year.

But now the system mission has come, and the rewards are in front of him. He already has one reward. If he can get these three rewards, I am afraid that his strength will be greatly improved this off-season.

For him, it is definitely the temptation among temptations!

Therefore, he must think of a way to win these two awards.

"Hey, Stephen, let's have a big fight, I mean the Rookie Challenge, I want to win!"

"James... I want to make this Rookie Challenge a little more interesting. I need your help, man!"

He first called the two guys he could win over.

Stephen Curry and James Harden are both players on this year's 2009 Rookie Challenge roster.

After getting the consent of these two people, he immediately relaxed a lot.

Because these two guys are both defenders, as long as they are willing to cooperate with him to win, then he can receive the ball. As long as he performs, this game will not be won 100%, but the hope will definitely be much greater.

.

As for why he is so confident.

Well, when you dominate the major lists as soon as you enter the league, and it's not just a month and a half, but you are still dominating the charts until now, you will be so confident!

After all, it's just a rookie challenge. Besides, look at these guys from the 2008 class. It's true that they are capable, but aren't they all defeated by Lin Ri's men?

In short, as long as he is not fighting alone, Lin Ri will not lose confidence in the Rookie Challenge!

However, the Rookie Challenge may increase the hope of winning in this way, but what about the All-Star Game? Lin Ri thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a way. In the end, his approach was to let nature take its course... There was no way
