Zhou Xuan got 34 points and 10 assists, the data can be compared with the last game, and his shooting rate is also significantly improved compared to last season, whether it is two points or three points.

Zhou Xuan's ball quotient is high, he can better control his body, and he knows how to make the most of his advantages.

Gentry is under a lot of pressure, the Suns have a problem now, they are all attacking players, and the one who is good at defense may be one Hill, and he can't let Camby on the inside, the speed is too slow to prevent the guard from breaking through. As for Thomas, he can only come off the bench for a while. Now a lot of people want to leave the Suns through trades, they are all contract years, and it will be difficult to earn a big contract next season if they can't play.

Gentry said loudly: "Guard against Zhou Xuan, don't give him room to make a move." Stop treating him like a playmaker and treat him like a Kobe-caliber scorer. ”

He made a few strokes on the tactical board, emphasizing the movement in the positional offense, the Warriors ran faster than them, and the Suns didn't dare to switch to Barbossa, so the positional offense was more advantageous. The Suns don't want to compete with the Warriors for speed, and there is a lack of people who are good at low-post offense on the inside, and Stoudeyer can also have his back, but he is always more powerful in the face frame.

The Suns' offensive tactics have not changed much, that is, to stabilize the situation, create opportunities for Nash Hill to play the Warriors' interior line in a misplaced position, and use Randolph as a breakthrough.

Warriors coach Smart continued to ask for Zhou Xuan as the core, so that he could control the ball and attack or pass it by himself. What kind of data a player can get has a lot to do with tactics. Margeti can cut 20+ in the Clippers, and when the Warriors have fewer ball-handling opportunities, it will be at the level of 15+.

Randolph has no intention of fighting for the ball, as long as the opportunity is good, Zhou Xuan will pass it to him.

Upset is Jackson, who prefers the playmaker style of play he had the previous season and feels great with the ball. But he didn't feel that he could do better than Zhou Xuan, in order to win, let Zhou Xuan have a bigger grasp at this time.

The game resumes.

Sun Sphere Rights. Zhou Xuan followed Nash, maintaining a pressing defense, and as soon as half court passed, Frye blocked Zhou Xuan, and Nash faced Jackson.

The ball was passed to Richardson, who in turn gave it to Hill. Hill and Stoudamire were misplaced after covering, and when they got to the right side of the low post to attack, Randolph had to bite the bullet. Hill took the ball and retreated, and Nash stood on his side, attracting Zhou Xuan to make up for the defense, so he could only watch Randolph.

Randolph kept a step away and focused, and he didn't want to lose because of himself. Hill dribbled under the crotch and Randolph followed. Hill then turned to the middle, and the movement was very fluid, Randolph had already blocked with all his might, but he was still dodged by him, and the small step-back jumper hit. 105 to 112.

Smith lamented: "If Hill hadn't experienced a serious injury, I think he would have been a member of the Hall of Fame. He's still strong at 38 years old, and he's also developing a three-point shot with the Suns, which is incredible. ”

Barkley smiled: "But the Warriors have a more demonic person than him, and I think Zhou Xuan has surpassed Nash this season." ”

The Sun didn't dare to let Nash defend Zhou Xuan anymore, because they would definitely not be able to prevent it. Hill went up again, vowing not to let him get through this time.

Zhou Xuan dribbled the ball under his crotch in the middle continuously, handed over his right hand to the left and shook it lightly, Hill moved a small step to the left, wanting to block Zhou Xuan's change of direction, but Zhou Xuan gently flicked the ball to the right side with his right hand, and shook the distance with one step laterally. Hill forcibly changed direction, and Zhou Xuan then changed direction and went to the middle with a back dribble.

At this point, Hill couldn't change his center of gravity, and his feet slipped and he sat on the ground.

“mandown！” Barkley shouted. If someone is shaken down on the street court, fans will often shout like this.

Zhou Xuan took the ball and accelerated, burst into the basket from the middle, Stadamire made up for the defense, and Zhou Xuan gently passed the ball to Randolph with his left hand in the run, who jumped up and hit the basket with one hand. 107 to 112.

Suns fans chanted Nash's name, hoping he would step up and score. Last season, Nash's scoring and assist rate was 11%, second only to Paul among point guards in the league, and he basically scored by himself.

Nash couldn't single out Zhou Xuan at this time, he had no confidence. Last season, he struggled to break through to last season, and this season the pressure is even greater, and he passes to Richardson, who goes to Hill and then to Stadamire. Smalls singled out Randolph, turned and hooked, and the rebound was picked up by Margeti.

The Suns also began to wrap up Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan passed, the Sun compressed the defense, and Ellis hit a three-point shot on the right side. 110 to 112.

The goal brought both sides almost back to the same running line, and then several attacks followed, with both sides hitting two goals each. Jackson and Ellis stepped up, and the Suns scored with Stadamire and Richardson. 114 to 116.

With just one minute left, and while the Suns were still ahead, the home fans were disappointed because the home team had a 23-point advantage at most, and they only scored 18 points in the fourth quarter, which was too little for an offensive powerhouse.

The Suns possessed the ball, handed to Hill after a few passes to single Randolph, the Warriors did not have a bag, and everyone on the Suns court could shoot. This time Randolph followed very closely, Hill broke through the baseline, turned around and missed a jumper, and the rebound was obtained by Jackson. The Warriors counterattacked, Ellis passed to Margetty, who missed a three-point jumper, missed a good opportunity, and the rebound was won by Richardson.

In 42 seconds, Nash relied on the cover to get rid of Zhou Xuan, dribbled under the crotch to avoid Jackson, rushed into the low post and passed to Richardson on the right side. Margeti couldn't switch and Richardson scored on a layup. 114 to 118.

It's a valuable assist, and Nash has reached 20 assists since this offense. At the age of 36, he is still in good form.

The pressure was on the side of the Warriors, Zhou Xuan controlled the ball to the frontcourt and let his teammates pull away, the interior players covered without the ball on both wings, Ellis dodged Nash by covering and then Dodge Stoudamire with Jackson's cover.

The two screens stunned the Suns, and Zhou Xuan passed the ball horizontally to Ellis, who received the ball and turned and jumped to score. 116 to 118.

It's a critical moment again. At 29 seconds, the Suns attacked, Nash was on the perimeter to protect the ball, and the players pulled away.

Zhou Xuan took a step away and did not lower his center of gravity, he was also afraid that Nash would pull out after the worst, if he was allowed to choose, he would not use up 24 seconds, but would suddenly shoot from the periphery, in case of scoring a goal, the Warriors would be finished. And it is not easy to defend against sudden cold arrows.

Nash really wanted to shoot, but Zhou Xuan's position was very delicate, and the jump shot would definitely be interfered with, and the breakthrough would be followed. At this time, he also had some understanding, that is, the sense of distance in defense, which Zhou Xuan was much stronger than him. He opted for a more secure approach to attack, and with five seconds to go, Stadamire came out to cover.

Zhou Xuan was blocked, and instead of going around in front of Stadameyer, he ran to the side, Margeti changed defenses, and Nash took to the right. Stoudamire cut inside and Randolph let go of Frye on the left to block Smalls.

Nash observed the situation, Frye was followed by Jackson when he reached the bottom line, but Richardson was not available, Zhou Xuan changed positions, and Zhou Xuan and Jackson both made the most correct choice.

Nash took the ball and retreated, and time didn't allow him to find another man, even if Hill had an advantage over Ellis.

Nash made a hasty shot, the ball bounced out of the frame, Randolphka was in position, and Ellis grabbed the key rebound and threw it to the frontcourt.

Zhou Xuan received the ball and singled out Richardson, and was about to make a move, when the referee's whistle blew, and Smart asked for a timeout. Zhou Xuan and Ellis, who were disgusting during this pause, were not light, the ball was passed very well, and Zhou Xuan in the front court was also confident to pass the opponent and fight again in overtime. But once the opportunity to break fast is gone, the opponent can arrange a defensive tactic.

Smart was also a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Ellis to grab the rebound and make a quick pass, worried that Randolph would get the ball and be entangled by Xiaosi. Now that the timeout was called, he decided to arrange a tactical three-point shot and try to use the last 5. 2 seconds to end the battle with a lore. If you score two points, it will seem that you are weak, and it will be difficult to find the opportunity you just had just now.

The players didn't say anything, so you can't sarcastically say a word to the manager, right? So they sat in a circle and listened to the tactics.

Zhou was in charge of the serve, Zakra went to the perimeter to give Stephen cover, Monta on the left and Gerrard [Green] in the bottom right corner. If there was no chance to shoot a three-pointer, Gerrard cut to the basket. Monta can burst fouls or shoot basketballs on his own, and Monta pays attention to grabbing rebounds and air cuts, and if Zhou gets away from defense, pass to him. ”

The first shot choice for this tactic is not Zhou Xuan, of course, his first pass is very important, but the arrangement is also very strange if the person who scores the most points today is not allowed to shoot.

Smart's idea is that the opponent will definitely guard against Zhou Xuan, and it will be easier for others to get opportunities. If he didn't have a chance to give Zhou Xuan, he must know how to run, and he had already shot 5 three-pointers.

Su Qun said depressedly: "Why did you let Zhou Xuan serve on the periphery, I think he was the most sure to give him the last attack, he scored 18 points in the fourth quarter and shot five three-pointers, if others can't shoot, the fans will be disappointed." ”

"This should be Smart's arrangement, Zhou Xuan is too short, and if he forcibly shoots, it is easy to be blocked, and other people's shots can ensure that the ball is thrown out, so there is nothing wrong with thinking so." Yang Jian said.

At the end of the timeout, the players from both sides returned to the court, and Nash was replaced with Barbossa, which was to strengthen the defense, although he was also terrible defensively, but he was faster than Nash, and the team no longer needed to organize the attack. Inside Amondson replaces Fry.

The Suns' idea is simple, resolutely defend the outside, and leave Stadameyer on the inside, even if it is a two-point shot, it is only in overtime, and they can even get a second to counterattack. Armondsson's interference shooting ability and movement ability are stronger than Fry's, and he can better defend the perimeter and have strong physical confrontation ability.

Zhou Xuan stood on the sidelines and analyzed, he had already calculated what might happen, as soon as the ball was released, he would start timing in his heart, hoping that his teammates would not let him down.
