The Whip of the God of Basketball - Chapter 390
Chapter 393 The Sun’s Weakness
(The new book has been released, please support-the title of the book “22nd Subject”)
The opening timeout is just to adjust the player’s state. The Suns are 7:0. The Cavaliers need to control the rhythm. They need to score.
After the timeout, he returned to the court. James still got the ball. The Cavaliers are a team that doesn’t need a point guard. Because of James’ versatility, he only needs a guard who can shoot.
The Suns’ players know this. Bell and Marion are trying to block the connection between James and his teammates, but James still finds an opportunity. He holds the ball and uses his speed and impact to accelerate from the right to the basket. .
Once James speeds up, no one can stop him, the Suns’ defense is immediately penetrated, and James directly buckles with one arm.
Barkley made a fuss, as if it was his first time watching James dunk: “LeBron! He is like a cannonball, and Phoenix’s defense is like a piece of butter.”
Kenny Smith also spoke to the side, teasing the sun’s defense.
Leon didn’t care very much. He knew that if James wanted to force a breakthrough, especially at the beginning of the game, no one could stop him.
He doesn’t mind being surprised by James one or two. The Suns can continue to fire on the offensive end.
Nash returned to the offensive end as expected. With the help of Stoudemire and Marion’s high double-screening, Nash found a chance to shoot an arrow on a horse in the right horn and hit two points.
9:2, anyone with a discerning eye can see that in these few games, Nash’s offensive desire is much stronger than in the past, as long as he has a chance, he will definitely shoot.
In turn, James continued to score points for the Cavaliers, he used his own speed to play offensive and defensive convergence, a quick surprise in the backcourt, and a direct hit to the basket and layup.
9:4. In 2007, the 23-year-old James was like an iron horse with unlimited physical strength, and he was very smart. He didn’t want to fall into the defensive trap set by Leon after he fell into position. In the past, he faced the Celtics. Suffered enough.
With a five-point gap, the two sides began to enter a period of flat offense and defense. The offensive efficiency of the solar position warfare declined slightly, and the Cavaliers insisted on playing fast and converging offense and defense. After a few rounds, the difference was close to 2 points.
At 15:13, on the bench, D’Antoni looked at Leon. Leon didn’t seem to call a timeout.
Barkley was a little anxious: “Why don’t the Suns call a timeout? Fox-Leon guy, are you in no rush? Where did the Suns’ gorgeous offense go? Where did Nash’s pass go? Could it be singles, pick-and-rolls, three throws? Split the ball? Is this his level?”
The game scene looked a little flat, so the fat guy started talking nonsense, but there was one thing he was right. The Suns’ offense was indeed far less gorgeous than before.
Nash held the ball and handed the ball to Stoudemire in the low post. Sigma Sigma stepped to face Gooden. At this time, the Cavaliers began to double-team Stoudemire. Stoudemire gave the ball to Dior who was inside. Dior avoided Iraq. Ergoskas’s long arm succeeded in the basket on his right hand.
“The Suns’ offense now plays more like the Spurs. Is it because they can’t beat the opponent and will become the opponent?” Kenny Smith commented on the Suns’ attack.
And Barkley squinted at Smith and didn’t speak, amused Smith: “I didn’t specifically refer to you. If you can’t hit the other party, you will kiss the other party’s ass.”
Two people joked in the studio, and on the court, James launched another attack.
But this time, his quick assault was not effective. After he rushed in from the center, he finally found that the sun began to shrink and immediately gave the ball to Marshall in the corner. As a result, Larry Hughes missed a three-pointer.
Dior controlled the backboard. Instead of passing the ball to Nash, he dribbled the ball and pushed it up and attacked.
Dior had long legs and rushed through the half in a few steps. He had a wide field of vision and passed a high profile to Marion, who was going to the basket. Marion made a layup easily after receiving the ball.
This was the drama Marion was best at in 2006. He couldn’t fight position and he was a good player to fight back.
The Sun changed the score to 19:13 again, and moved a little away from the Cavaliers.
This distance is often the difference between the strength of the two teams. Apart from James, the Cavaliers played in average today, especially Larry Hughes, who played very averagely and couldn’t make outside shots. Both offensive and defensive tasks are placed on the insiders of Gooden and Ilgauskas. Both of them rely on their height and size advantages and cooperate with James to reach the basket to score points, helping the team to bite the score.
At the end of the first quarter, the score between the two sides was 25:20, and the Suns led by 5 points. It seems that the Suns’ offense is not so hot, and the Cavaliers’ state is even worse.
Leon sat on the bench for the entire quarter, did not move much, did not call a timeout, and even D’Antoni helped him complete the substitution.
The savvy and powerful iron fist coach in the past now makes people feel lazy to a certain level.
Even Barkley complained: “I think at the end of this season, Fox Leon can compete with me in weight.”
Kenny Smith retorted: “Unless he can eat an elephant, it will be hard not to let me see the next century.”
By the second quarter, the Suns were still on the right track, but the Cavaliers made quiet adjustments between the first and second quarters. James sat off the court and rested for two minutes. Mike Brown and James discussed it. , When the score came to 30:22 and the Suns opened the difference to 8 points, the Cavaliers called a short timeout, Brown replaced James, and then replaced Hughes with Damon Jones, which seemed to want to strengthen One-third of the outside firepower. Hughes doesn’t work well, so let’s try Jones.
It was still James who held the ball and Marion led the defense. The Cavaliers’ most effective offense in the first quarter was to let James and Gooden and Ilgauskas cooperate, and the two tallers went down the inside. They were very powerful, but they played The undead sun.
This time it was different, but Damon Jones came up to cover James.
The main defense against Jones is Nash. Jones will cover James. He must change defense, or squeeze and bypass. Of course, Marion chooses to bypass and does not give James a chance to break through.
But regardless of squeezing or bypassing, as long as the pick-and-roll does not change defenses, there will inevitably be a gap in defense. James uses this gap to directly pull out of the three-point line and shoot!
“Huh!”
Three-pointer!
This is the first time James has attempted a three-pointer in this game. Although Leon told the players before the game to guard James to take a step, it does not mean that James can really be released completely.
Once he has a feel on the outside and enters the state, James’ outside jumper is equally unstoppable.
Watching James hit a three-pointer, Leon couldn’t sit still a little bit. Don’t look at him doing nothing and nothing in the first quarter. In fact, he is paying close attention to the situation on the court, and he has a bad feeling.
Looking back on the offensive end, Nash and Stoudemire made a pick-and-roll. Stoudemire went down to the basket and wanted to force a dunk. As a result, he was blocked by James, who was defending, and James then countered with the ball.
The Suns advanced fast and retreated as fast as they did. They didn’t give the Cavaliers a chance to continue the offensive and defensive transition and fell into position.
It was still James and Jones playing the pick-and-roll, Marion still switched defenses, and then James passed the ball to Jones, and in turn, screened each other with Jones. This time Nash and Marion didn’t work well together. The two switched defenses, and Jones passed back. James, then ran to the wing and waited for a three-pointer. As a result, Marion could only follow Jones and completely exposed Nash to James.
Sheep into the tiger’s mouth.
Nash was completely unable to defend against James’ powerful breakthrough, and could only foul and send James to the free throw line.
The Suns still have a five-point advantage, James made two free throws from the free throw line, reducing the point difference to four points.
At this time, Leon, whose **** seemed to be nailed to the bench for 20 minutes, finally stood up. He walked near the technical table and made a time-out gesture toward the referee.
Leon finally took the initiative to call a timeout, which surprised Barkley and Kenny Smith~www.mtlnovel.com~ This guy finally moved!
Although the situation looks very good for the Suns, as a head coach, he is different from the audience and the commentator. He has seen the team’s problems, and this problem has been plagued by the Suns, and was given by the Cavaliers in the second quarter. Caught.
That is Nash’s defense. When the opponent wants to make a dislocation, Nash’s point is likely to explode, which will cause the entire sun to explode.
This is also the biggest weakness of the Phoenix Suns.
Leon threatened to use more crazy offense to solve defensive problems, but the big defensive problems really need to be solved, because offense and defense are always one.
“I’m going to rearrange the defense. Everyone listens well. You may not do too well today, but I will keep reminding you until you do it well.”
Leon took out his tactical board and said to the players.
