Chapter 31: A Team That Doesn't Need to Defend

After playing, Chen Yu began to exert his power.

Under Paul's accurate ammunition supply, Chen Yu hit three three-pointers in succession at the right three-point line, and simply gave the Suns a timeout.

To the cheers of the fans at the scene, both teams returned to the bench.

Paul sat next to Chen Yu, stabbed him and said, "Brother, if you go on like this, the second quarter will be over." ”

Chen Yu spread out his hands, looked at his palms, and said in disbelief: "Is my strength so strong now?" ”

"Hmm." Paul nodded in affirmation, "You're so strong right now. ”

"But it didn't feel so easy in the last game." Chen Yu said puzzled.

"Because the opponents are different." Scott walked over with excitement on his face, patted Chen Yu on the shoulder and said: "The opponent on the court is the Spurs, one of the strongest teams in the league, especially they have two defensive pillars, Bowen on the outside and Duncan on the inside. You're pressed by Bowen in the last game, you can't find much space to shoot, and you're even stuck in the bag. And the Suns are a team with offense as the core, and defense is not their focus, so in the offensive battle between the two teams, no matter how efficient they are, they are not as efficient as your three-point efficiency, so this leads to a result. ”

Paul added: "Teams like the Suns, the Warriors, you're their nemesis. As long as they dare to throw up the defense and focus on the offense, then you can shoot them with a few consecutive three-pointers. ”

"I see." Chen Yu nodded, feeling like laughing.

The ups and downs of life are too exciting.

Originally, he was just a water cooler on the bench, but after a few games, he became a strategic player with three-point ability.

"I think we're going to play defensive tactics now, and if we fight to attack, we'll be killed by that Chinese."

On the Suns bench, Nash said to his teammates and coaches with a solemn face.

"We're not good at defending." Stoudemire shook his head, glanced at Chen Yu on the Hornets bench, and said disdainfully: "And I don't think a rookie can shoot us, his shooting percentage can't be so accurate." ”

"Amare." Nash said seriously to Stoudemire, "Have you forgotten that he hit twelve three-pointers in a row in the last game?" ”

"Steve, you know, that's just a coincidence. There is no player in the world who can consistently hit twelve three-pointers per game in the NBA. Stoudemire argued.

"But that Chinese Chen also has a terrible hit rate in the last few games, and he is an opponent worthy of our attention."

"He's just a rookie and you're too nervous Steve."

"Amare, I think defensive tactics are the only way out for the team now!"

"We are an attacking team! No defense! ”

Nash and Stoudemire began to argue, and the other players looked at each other and did not dare to interject.

Eventually, Suns head coach Mike D'Antoni slapped the tactical board in his hand and said sharply, "Don't be noisy." ”

Nash and Stoudemire shut their mouths.

"It's not time to change tactics!" D'Antoni announced his judgment.

"Coach ......" Nash wanted to say something, but was stopped by the head coach.

"Nash, I know your concerns, but the Suns have always been an offense-focused player, with a round of offensive power, and no team will be our opponent!" D'Antoni picked up a pen and drew a line on the tactical board, then said: "Now, start to increase the tempo of the attack, finish the attack in eight seconds, and increase the number of rounds in the game." ”

Nash's face suddenly darkened.

Originally, this kind of offensive play is at a disadvantage, if you increase the offensive rhythm and increase the number of rounds, then the Chinese of the Hornets are not allowed to fly?

No matter how unwilling Nash is, the manager's orders are still absolute, he is not the kind of team boss who loves to stab, so he still chooses to obey the head coach.

The timeout was over and both teams were back on the pitch.

Sun on offense.

Nash dribbled across half court like a wild dog off the leash, and before he could get his feet, he shot.

"Huh!"

Luckily, Nash hit a three-point shot.

The score was 27-31.

It was the Hornets' turn to attack.

Paul dribbled the ball past half court and passed the ball directly to Chen Yu again.

Chen Yu took the basketball and assumed a three-threat pose.

Originally, he thought that he would be caught by the Suns after he got on the court, but he didn't expect that no one would pay attention to him, and the half-dead appearance of the opposing defensive player Grant Hill obviously wanted to focus on offense.

"The old irons of the sun are exquisite."

Since there is no one to defend and no one to wrap up, Chen Yu unceremoniously directly pulls out the three-point line and shoots.

"Huh!"

There is no doubt about it, hollow into the net.

Chen Yu's goal reopened the score between the two teams.

"Fack!" Nash scolded angrily in a low voice, but he had no choice but to prepare for the attack again.

The two teams are like the cavalry of the ancient confrontation, and the charge and attack of the round test are red, but in comparison, the blood of the Suns is obviously redder......

By the end of the first quarter, the score had reached 36-49, and the Hornets pulled the score to double digits under the double power of Chen Yu and Paul.

In the first quarter, Chen Yu made seven shots and six three-pointers, and scored a team-high 20 points, almost half of the team's total score. And under this terrifying score, Chen Yu only made seven shots, and the hit rate had already broken through the sky.

"Fack! There's still a basketball to play?! Nash returned to the bench and began throwing up the towel.

Hit the shot, is that Chinese player a superman?

What made Nash even more desperate was that the Suns still insisted on playing offensive tactics at this time, which made him wonder if the whole team was undercover except for him.

Obviously, the Chinese hit rate is 100%, and he has to increase the number of rounds and attack, isn't this looking for death?

Nash's towel fell to the attention of Suns head coach D'Antoni, who thought about it carefully and felt that he couldn't not give the team boss face like this, so he coughed and said, "Although we continue to play Suns offensive tactics, we can't let that kind of Chinese shoot so easily." Raga Bell and Grant Hill, you're going to wrap up China Chen and don't let him make easy three-point shots. ”

"Got it, coach." The two nodded.

Nash's face darkened even more when he heard D'Antoni's words.

Nima, Raga Bale is gone, so who will defend Paul's offense? Is he a defensive black hole?

At this moment, Nash suddenly realized that it was not that D'Antoni did not want to play defensive tactics.

It's this team, and there are no defensive tactics at all!
