Chapter 185: % hit rate, what do you mean by that!
"Quickly serving from the baseline, Nash dribbled the ball into the frontcourt like a whirlwind and passed the ball to Su Bei. Stoudemire rushed in from the middle, received the pass from Su Bei, took three steps, jumped up from the penalty area, and with a bang, it was a goal
"The legendary 7-second run-and-gun. With the Mavericks' familiarity with the run-and-gun tactic, it would not be easy for the Suns to pull it off. However, Stoudemire has the same speed talent as a guard, but he can throw Dampier out of sight.
Tail.
With the Suns playing more and less and the Mavericks' twin-tower lineup, it's almost an impossible task to defend against them."
7 to 7!
Under this fast pace, the Suns play very comfortably, and their run-and-gun offense is unstoppable.
However, looking back, the Suns' defense and Mavericks' offense were useless.
"Harris used his speed to break through Nash, just like Barbosa's speed to break through Nash. He was too fast and shot after entering. Nash quickly lost it.
The assisting defense on the wings has not started yet, but has already been completed. With Nash’s scoring question, it is impossible for the Suns to defend if they want to defend, so they can only attack..."
9 to 7!
Still pushing for speed, Harris blocked it and Nash passed the ball to Marion, who quickly passed the ball to Su Bei.
Lifting the ball and shaking Terry back from defense, Su Bei collected the ball, dribbled into the penalty area, and sent the basketball to the basket with a lob.
9 to 9!
On the court, Terry took the ball to the frontcourt, and Lagabell's defense in front of him started, accelerated, and stopped abruptly. Lagabell's block shot hit his face, but he still couldn't stop Terry's shot.
Swish——!
11 to 9!
"Nash couldn't push the run-and-gun tactic, so he settled into position and used the diamond tactic.
Marion and Stoudemire moved to the corner areas on both sides, while Su Bei and Laga Bell sank to the bottom corner.
Nash walked to the right and played a pick-and-roll with Stoudemire. Stoudemire caught the ball and made a jump shot in front of Harris, scoring two points..."
Swish——!
In the first quarter of the game, both sides faced off offensively, but in the end no one could do anything to their opponent.
Playing against the Suns is simply asking for death. When it comes to speed, the Mavericks can't even put up any effective defense.
The Mavericks' offense is not bad, they are dominant in the paint, they can rebound if they can't make a shot, and with Nash's scoring problem, their offense is also unambiguous.
Now, both sides' offensive guns are very powerful, it just depends on whose attack is more durable.
The game was very lively, with a fast offensive rhythm and high scores, which made the fans outside the field very happy.
However, the two sides operated fiercely, and the score was 250. It was just.
The Suns only lead by 1 point. This lead is not even enough to feed the cat.
In the second quarter, both Lagabel and Su Bei took a break.
D'Antoni lined up a lineup with Stoudemire, Marion, Audi, Barbosa and Nash.
One look at Avery Johnson and he knew the Suns were not going to give up their fight for the No. 1 spot in the league.
He also kept Nowitzki, Terry and Josh Howard in the game, replacing Diop and Stackhouse.
"All the core players of the Mavericks have not been replaced.
They were close to winning the championship in 2006, and it is impossible for Mavericks owner Cuban to go crazy and dismantle the team's core lineup for three consecutive years.
It’s really better to fight the main force. If there is a 7-man rotation, with the Mavericks’ background, they are really not afraid to compete with the Suns to see who is more durable..."
The second quarter of the game begins.
Nash controlled the ball to the frontcourt and used a pick-and-roll tactic.
"Diop gained his worth by beating Shaquille O'Neal, but he can only show off his power in the penalty area. His weight and his style of play, like O'Neal, are not suitable for guarding pick-and-roll tactics.
Nash used Stoudemire's screen to get rid of Terry, went to the inside, and used a small floater to send the basketball into the basket..."
Swish——!
The gap between the two sides came to 3 points.
If you are 3 points away, then try a three-point shot. Nowitzki receives the ball from outside the three-point line, lifts the ball, does not jump, and shoots a three-point shot from behind.
Marion is 2.01 meters tall. It’s too difficult to guard Nowitzki who is 2.13 meters tall. He still has the range to shoot and play away from him. This question is even more difficult because he can’t do it!
Swish——!
The two sides returned to the same starting line again.
"D'Antoni is simply a talent. If Marion plays power forward, the defense can almost give up treatment.
But having said that, the Suns' offense is really tough. Although it is partial to subjects, it can still be successful if you do the subjects you are good at to the best..."
Swish——!
Marion turned around and hit Nowitzki with a three-pointer from the corner.
His shooting is unstable, but he has range and is very lethal when accurate.
Marion's three-point hit seemed to activate the Suns' three-point bloodline.
Barbosa could only use his speed to hit the players, but he also scored a three-pointer.
Three points were scored, and two points were even more accurate.
The Suns are on full offensive firepower.
The Mavericks didn't seem to care, and they tried their best to defeat the Suns with a strong offense. However, their two-pointers were okay, but their three-point shooting pistols had no bullets. They still wanted to gamble on three-pointers, so,
The blacksmithing show started.
With the return of Su Bei and Laga Bell, they continued to have three-point shooting firepower in the game. The Mavericks could not withstand it anymore. Finally, they were able to steal the basket and the score would not be ugly.
At the end of the second quarter, the Suns gave the Mavericks a shock wave and entered the locker room with a 7-point lead.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Suns lineup came out.
The Mavericks only moved Harris, with Stackhouse on top.
The Suns have the offensive ball, and Nash controls the ball to the frontcourt, still using pick-and-roll tactics.
"Nash used Stoudemire's cover to get rid of Terry.
Dribbling the ball into the penalty area, Dampier couldn't resist, Josh Howard came to help defend, but Nash passed the ball behind Josh Howard. Su Bei cut into the penalty area, he flew up and caught the basketball..."
Bang-dang——!
In the alley-oop, the entire body hangs on the basket.
Jiangsu North was very stable in eating the cake and did not vomit after eating, widening the point difference to 9 points.
Nowitzki tried to use three-point shots to chase points. Marion's defense was useless, but if he tried, he would die.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Bang Dang——!
Nowitzki missed a three-pointer.
"The rebound was grabbed by Marion. He took the ball to counterattack and passed the ball to Nash. He rushed up. Stoudemire, Su Bei, and Laga Bell also rushed up, forming a 5-on-4 frontcourt.
Terry wanted to press fiercely and take away the Suns' advantage. Nash anticipated Terry's movements and quickly passed the basketball to Laga Bell. He caught the ball, jumped up, raised his hand and shot a three-point jumper...
…”
Bang-dang——!
Lagaabel struck the iron.
Stoudemire grabbed the offensive rebound, raised the ball and missed it. He seemed to have thought of something, and then passed the basketball to Marion. Nowitzki rushed to Marion, who pushed with both hands and waited for Nowitzki to look.
Looking towards the direction of the basketball, Su Bei was seen jumping high. With a flick of his wrist, the basketball drew an arc in the air.
Swish——!
A three-pointer went into the net.
At 12 points, Subei's three-pointer expanded the point difference between the two sides to double digits.
The Suns' offense is still full of firepower. However, the Mavericks still haven't improved their defensive intensity. Instead, they want to attack the Suns.
Of course the Suns would not tolerate him, they would just use a more violent attack to push back the Mavericks.
Nowitzki lost his shooting touch in the third quarter. Fortunately, Nash's shooting touch was also gone. They are really a pair of good friends. If you don't attack, he won't attack either. They both want to suffer?
After all, Nash is a point guard. He doesn't score, so he doesn't have much impact. But Nowitzki is the Mavericks' leading scorer. He doesn't score, his defense is weak, he can't score, and he can't defend. Isn't that right?
Nothing?
Fortunately, the Mavericks' offense does not rely too much on Nowitzki. There are many players who can score, and they have the advantage of inside rebounding. The points difference behind is not widened too much.
According to the score, the Suns continued to expand by 3 points, turning the lead into 10 points.
Trailing by 10 points, the game started in the fourth quarter.
The Mavericks' offense became simpler, starting to shoot three-pointers from the outside and continuing to bet on whether there were bullets in their three-point guns.
Bang-dang——!
…
Bang-dang——!
…
After Terry finished hammering, it was Stackhouse's turn to hammer.
Then after the break, Nowitzki's three-point shot also hit the mark.
In the fourth quarter, he made 0 of 5 three-point shots.
"What a ghost!
It doesn't matter if the Mavericks missed a three-point shot, what's wrong with the Suns?
The offensive firepower can be improved, and the shooting is too accurate, right?"
They made 4 of 4 three-point shots, only missed one two-point shot, and missed one free throw. The shooting rate was as high as 95%. What can the Mavericks do to overcome this?
You can't stand it.
Buzz——!
As the buzzer sounds, the red light lights up, and the game time is over.
According to the score, the Suns defeated the Mavericks by 23 points, ending the Mavericks' 9-game winning streak and extending their winning streak to 6 games per game.
In addition, with this victory, the Suns reduced the number of wins between the two sides to three games, which is a reversible range.
Nash had an assist, Stoudemire had a rebound, Su Bei scored 26 points and 4 rebounds, Marion also scored 20 points and 6 rebounds, and 4 people scored more than 20 points.
In addition to Barbosa's 16 points and Diaw's 10 points, 6 people scored in double figures, which can be said to be a double-point success.
The Mavericks' Josh Howard scored 28 points, Nowitzki scored 27 points, Terry scored 21 points, and Stackhouse scored 25 points. Four of them scored over 20 points. It's a pity that none of the other role players scored in double figures.
He only contributed more than 10 points, which was a drop in the bucket, and the loss was not unfair.
