In the second half of the first quarter, the Kings strengthened their defense of the restricted area, and kept their feet close to the Suns' two rookies inside, making them difficult to receive the ball in the frame and accelerate.

The effect of this move is remarkable, just because Xiao Si and Nene lack the ability to carry their backs, they will make a simple turn, and former Suns coach Frank Johnson can't look down on them. Frank has been hoping that they will step up their back-to-back offense and try to become a stumbling post like Chakalidis sooner rather than later.

Now the two of them just play the strength of the face frame, rush up to play, and it doesn't matter if they are close to the body, they attract the defense and can help Guo Xu create singles opportunities on the periphery.

Joe Johnson and Marion both have shooting ability, Christie, who is good at helping defense, didn't dare to wrap up anymore, and Guo Xu singled out Jackson to take over the game.

Jackson is far away Guo Xu retreats to shoot three points, the distance is close, Guo Xu's feints are simple and effective, gently shake the ball to change direction, turn around and change direction by holding the ball, relying on rhythm changes and speed advantages, he can always create hand space.

He shot in a row, 4 of 6 shots, and had a variety of offensive methods, one mid-range shot, one toss, two three-pointers, and a misplaced breakthrough on the counterattack that caused Webb to foul and hit both free throws.

Adelman made another adjustment, replaced the swingman Jim Jackson against Joe Johnson, and sent Christie to play a cameo role as the point guard to defend Guo Xu, but Guo Xu began to pass the ball again, and after playing the block, he attracted the defense to his teammates to play.

Smalls threw in a high mid-range shot, and ESPN commentator Woodson couldn't stop laughing. "What did the experts do before analyze the players? Amare's draft template was Ben Wallace, but he could shoot and score often. ”

Horvath sighed: "Amare was only selected with the ninth pick, the Suns picked up a big bargain, he is about the same as Nene in terms of body, and he has the range to win on the offensive end." ”

In his rookie season, Xiao Si's mid-range shooting is not a conventional weapon, and the proportion of shots is not high, but he has done a good job.

In the second half, the Kings attacked well, seizing the Suns' defensive holes again and again, but the Suns were more fierce, leading 40-28 in the first quarter.

Guo Xu had 14 points and 9 assists in a single quarter, almost cutting a double-double, Suns Xiaosi 10 points, Nene 6 points, Joe Johnson 8 points, the worst performance was Marion, only 2 points on 1 of 2 shots, and he didn't receive many passes.

In the second quarter, the Suns began to rotate, Guo Xu went to rest, Joe Johnson and Marion continued to play with the bench, and the other three were Alston, Jacobson, and Haslem.

There are no players taller than 205cm on the Suns' court, D'Antoni doesn't like slow players, and under his system, Chacalidis and Gugliotta can only be marginal people.

Gugliotta can be a center forward even if he wants to play, he is very open to this, he gets an annual salary of tens of millions, and the money he earns in this life has long been inexhaustible, and he has been injured for many years, and he has accepted his fate, knowing that he can no longer prove himself on the court.

Previously, Frank asked Gugliotta to start, and he took it hard.

Frank asks if he has confidence in himself, can he make the first release? This is simply sick, you can't say that you can't do it if you're a gentleman, right? With an annual salary of tens of millions, will he say things like "I can't do it, so I can only play as a substitute"?

The Suns' second team is still very fast in the transition between offense and defense, and the players can shoot when they have the chance.

Alston didn't bounce well and couldn't dunk at 188cm, but he was able to do the job of moving quickly with the ball, and his dribbling skills were so good that the ball seemed to stick to his hands. He was able to do this when he was in the sixth grade, and he became famous in New York.

Cutting off a basketball from Alstom's hands is almost impossible. As a playmaker, Alston has the ability to control the basketball at full throttle.

They have a good offense, all five can shoot, Marion is a cameo power forward, can grab the board on the defensive end, and can play a fast break on the offensive end.

Haslem is slow but also necessary to play, he is in charge of defending Divac, he is not tall but has the weight to defend him from outside the box. On the offensive end, he played a bigger role than veteran Scott Williams, as he was able to shoot from the ground after covering.

After this period of hard work, Haslem has lost 125 kilograms, which is still overweight, but his athleticism has improved a lot, he has lost an average of 10 pounds per month, and the coaching staff is very satisfied with his progress.

Clark is very thin, he only has a height advantage in the face of Marion, the offensive efficiency is still not high, and he can't outrun the 201CM "hacker" when counterattacking, not to mention a big man like him, many defenders can't run.

Damon Jones is a 191CM tall two-way guard, known as a two-year, mainly a point guard, poor ball handling, and his specialty is shooting. He was also sloppy defensively and couldn't stop Alston from advancing and penetrating.

In the second half, Guo Xu, Xiao Si, and Nene returned, Jacobson continued to play, and the No. 2 position sent fringe man Maurice Evans to top for a while, allowing Marion and Joe Johnson to rest together. It's a rotational approach negotiated by the coaching staff to ensure three-point shooting and offensive firepower.

Evans is 196M tall and weighs 100 kilograms, and he doesn't suffer on the defensive end, he can pull away and shoot three-pointers on the offensive end, and the team doesn't need him to do much.

Jacobson's task is also so simple, fighting chaotically during counterattacks, opening up positional battles to see Guo Xu and his teammates block and dismantle, and Nene can occasionally give him a simple off-ball cover on the side.

D'Antoni's tactical system is to simplify the complex, not so many routines, to put it bluntly, similar to the "Zen Master" Jackson, he is also a blind chicken BD-based. This requires finding the right people to execute the tactics and maximize the individual abilities of the point guards, as well as the athleticism of the frontcourt players.

De Fat is actually a construction coach, if you want to achieve results, you must build the team according to his philosophy, if his players can't run, no three points, then his coaching level will look very bad.

When discussing tactics, D'Antoni involved Guo Xu, and he listened to Guo Xu's advice in the rotation method. One of the key proposals is to have Joe Johnson take the bench in the second quarter, and the all-round skills of "single Joe" can work for a certain period of time, and he is no longer just a pitcher.

The Suns led again in the quarter, 27-20 and 67-48 at halftime.

Guo Xu had 23 points and 12 assists in the half, and his performance exceeded his usual statistics for the whole game.

Xiao Si became the team's second scoring point under the leadership of Guo Xu, with 16 points and 4 rebounds in the half, and the bench swingman Jacobson scored 8 points in a single quarter, performing well.

At halftime, many reporters were rushing to Phoenix, giving up interviews with other Western Conference teams, and they all felt that there would be big news today. The Suns, who have just changed their coach, have increased their offensive power to an astonishing level, and there is no suspense in scoring 110 points.

In the second half, the Suns continued to run and bomb the strategy, and the starting five went up together, but the Kings still couldn't prevent it.

Guo Xu will vacate Xiao Si, if he doesn't wrap him, he will score heads-up, the king can't defend if he wants to, the Suns counterattack is too fast, Divac and Peja often haven't been in place, and the Suns players have shots.

Guo Xu played very well, even if he fouled too much and went off the court, his combination with Xiao Si, Marion, and Joe Johnson was also very powerful.

Adelman had to play the main team, and he didn't dare to let Divac and key backup defender Damon Jones play. As soon as Jones came on, he was beaten into a sieve on the defensive end in 4 minutes, and the No. 2 position was not tall and weighty, and it was impossible to defend against Joe Johnson.

At the end of the third quarter, the Suns led 97-75, and the style of play played the king, who is known for his "gorgeous style of play". (https:)
