() In the second minute of the second quarter, the Suns replaced Stoudemire, who had returned from injury, as the forward, and veteran Kent Thomas was replaced. Stoudemire's appearance welcomed Staples fans.
There were bursts of boos. As if in response, Stoudemire kicked off his comeback with a powerful dunk as soon as he came on the court.
Steve Nash lobbed the basketball high to Stoudemire. He stood on tiptoes to receive the high and floating pass, as if there were springs under his feet. Stoudemire almost landed on the soles of his feet.
He jumped up without stopping and slammed the basketball toward the basket through Kwame Brown.
Probably because he didn't expect Stoudemire's movements to be so fast, Kwame Brown didn't react, and by the time he did, he had no time to make a move.
"This guy is in good condition after just recovering from injury. He doesn't seem to be worried about his knee at all. The Suns' team doctor is really..." Adrian frowned and yelled at Kwame Brown: "Kwame, here it is.
I'll keep an eye on him!"
When Amar'e Stoudemire came up and opened the situation with a wonderful dunk, he was excited and happy, but Kwame Brown inevitably felt the humiliation of being disrespected. At this moment, he heard
Adrian roared, his face turned red even more, and he nodded fiercely, with a ferocious look on his face.
Stoudemire is in quite good condition. Although he is back from injury, there is no sign of his recent return from injury. The Suns achieved their goal. When Stoudemire inserted himself into the Lakers' inside line,
The Suns did open up a certain situation in the Lakers' interior, putting greater pressure on the Lakers' defense. However, at this time, the Suns' surprisingly high three-point shooting percentage finally dropped. Boyce Diaw
Two open three-pointers in a row meant that the Suns' outside three-point shooting finally began to decline.
No matter how the Suns change their offense, the Lakers still stick to their offensive model.
Adrian is still holding the ball and wandering around the three-point line, the basketball bouncing back and forth between his hands. Like a beating elf. Boyce-Diaw has now closed his mouth and does not go any further.
Provoke Adrian. On the one hand, D'Antoni indicated that he does not need to provoke Adrian anymore because these provocations have not produced any harmonious effects so far. Although Adrian is young, he is definitely not a man of temper after being teased.
The second point is that Boyce-Dior really doesn’t have the extra energy to do this kind of thing now.
After playing several fancy dribbles on the outside, Odom pulled directly from the inside and tried to pick and roll for Adrian. Shawn Marion immediately followed, and he was now guarding Odom every step of the way.
Because in the first quarter, Odom played really well. When he pulled out to pick and roll for Adrian, his range was all within the three-point line. Between Boyce Diaw and Odom,
The height difference between them is too big. Even if the defense is switched, his defensive effect against Odom is not as good as that against Adrian, and it is difficult to even interfere with Odom's shooting.
But this time, Adrian did not cooperate with Odom in the pick-and-roll. Instead, he feinted a shot and suddenly threw the basketball to the left, where Sasha Vujacic relied on the pick-and-roll with Trevor Ariza.
The counter-running combination successfully got rid of Steve Nash's defense. Because Steve Nash and James Jones focused most of their attention on the pick-and-roll combination of Adrian and Odom.
Steve Nash was careless and was successfully thrown away by Sasha Vujacic. Adrian's ball reached Vujacic's hand almost immediately.
Sasha Vujacic caught the ball, jumped up, and shot. His movements were coherent and his posture was graceful. Unfortunately, he had some problems with his accuracy. The basketball hit the left side of the basket and bounced out.
"Mine." The little bully Stoudemire jumped high and was about to take this backcourt rebound into his hands with full satisfaction, but another pair of big hands, another pair of thick, black muscles and tangled hands, grabbed it abruptly.
Tadmire grabbed the rebound before and dunked fiercely and directly!
"ah!!!"
After landing, Kwame Brown roared loudly, staring at Stoudemire with a pair of fierce eyes! This ferocious dunk was a reply to the dunk just now. Stoudemire's face changed.
, who is he? A well-known All-Star player throughout the league, and what about Kwame Brown? Just a parallel import number one pick!
Such a parallel import number one pick actually dared to yell at an All-Star player like himself. And he even dunked one on his head!
Adrian smiled softly and high-fived Kwame Brown, who had already retreated. Kwame Brown was also the No. 1 pick after all. Mr. Joe was wrong at first, but more importantly, he overestimated Kwame Brown.
Brown, the top pick in high school, has the mental endurance and potential, but before his potential can be realized, his confidence has completely disappeared under Mr. Joe's angry scolding.
During this period of time, Kwame Brown, who has found his position, understood his strengths and weaknesses, and has been repeatedly used in the starting lineup, seems to want to regain the confidence that he has lost. He dares to rush forward.
Stoudemire roaring is a kind of proof that this thick, black and silly big man is not afraid to show his toughness in front of the All-Stars.
During the transition between offense and defense, it was the Suns' turn to attack. Stoudemire directly inserted into the paint, resisted Kwame Brown, and then opened his hand to ask Steve Nash for the ball.
He wants to get his place back!
Faced with Stoudemire's willful request for the ball regardless of tactics, Steve Nash hesitated and chose to pass the basketball to Stoudemire. For Stoudemire's small task
Of course, Steve Nash, who is experienced and well-versed in people, would not choose to refuse.
"Parallel import, do you think you can compare with me?" Stoudemire glared at Kwame Brown fiercely, while turning around with a tentative step, assuming a triple threat posture, staring at Kwame Brown.
He threatened: "Do you think you, a parallel importer, can compare to me, an All-Star?"
"Stop talking nonsense, come here if you have the guts!" Kwame Brown failed to stop Stoudemire from turning around, but as soon as Stoudemire turned around, he got close to him and waved his arms up and down.
He said viciously: "I will beat you to pieces with one fist, you glass man!"
Both of them are seven-foot-tall burly men, and their appearance is not similar to that of Chunliang. This gnashing of teeth and insults at each other really has a natural intimidation, as if two wild beasts are glaring at each other, and they are about to pounce and fight at the next moment.
.
Stoudemire screamed fiercely, but he actually didn't have much ability to attack the basket. He relied more on sudden dunks and quick breakthrough dunks to get to the basket. With his terrifying explosive power, he could
It is said that he is always invincible. However, since his knee surgery in 2005, Stoudemire has studied hard and practiced hard, and he has another weapon, shooting!
After nearly two years of continuous hard training, Stoudemire's shooting has become quite good. In some of the games he played this season, shooting accounted for 29% of his points, which is an unknown improvement compared to before.
In order to guard against Stoudemire's sudden shot, Kwame Brown stayed very close, which allowed Stoudemire to see the opportunity to break through. He took a long step, Stoudemire took one step and cut abruptly.
He passed Kwame Brown's defense and rushed to the inside. He was still two steps away from the basket. Stoudemire stomped his feet on the floor, and his whole body was already rising into the sky. It seemed as if he was lifting into the sky.
Like a rocket, he hit the basketball hard against the basket.
Seeing another shocking dunk, a figure suddenly shot out from behind, arriving first and jumping high in front of Stoudemire, waving his big hand towards Stoudemire.
Meyer slapped it hard, and two equally majestic bodies collided violently in the air. Stoudemire suddenly couldn't control the basketball, and the basketball flew out of his hand. The man directly knocked the basketball out of Stoudemire's hand.
Hit the backboard hard!
The referee blew the whistle and pointed his finger at Adrian.
Adrian, defensive foul!
"Hey, don't be too self-righteous." Adrian squinted at Stoudemire: "It's not that easy to score!"
"Hmph!" Stoudemire did not fall down. He had adjusted his center of gravity in the air and landed steadily. Adrian's provocative words made Stoudemire's face darken, and he passed with his right hand.
The burning pain made Stoudemire even more angry.
But he didn't say anything in the end. After staring at Adrian for a while, he shook his head and turned around to prepare for a free throw.
"Ed!" Kwame's face was apologetic, obviously he was worried about the fact that he was easily broken through by Stoudemire just now.
"Don't worry." Adrian patted Kwame Brown's butt, but looked straight ahead: "Teach him a lesson, tell him that the sky is high and the sky is high, and this is not a place where he can show off casually."
Stoudemire's free throw percentage has always been very good, especially this year, which has made great progress. But he was slapped hard on the hand by Adrian just now, which obviously affected Stoudemire.
Demier's touch. All two free throws bounced out of the frame and both were missed. The rebounded basketball was grabbed by Kwame Brown and then handed to Adrian.
Adrian focused on pick-and-roll cooperation and team organization, and the game entered a tug-of-war period.
Whether it is the Suns or the Lakers, it is difficult for both sides to create a shock wave that can widen the score gap in a short period of time.
The score keeps rising alternately. (To be continued. Welcome to the starting point (qidian.) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m.qidian. to read.)
