At half-time, sitting in the visitors' dressing room, Hornacek pondered the past first half of the game with a tactical board.

"Jeff!" Collison, the assistant coach next to him, interrupted him when he saw this.

"Oh, okay, okay." Hornacek hurriedly reflected, this is not the time for him to think, but the time to come up with tactics and solutions.

"Well, I'm sure you can do a good job!" Collison patted Hornacek on the shoulder and said, this season's Hornacek is not without hard work, going out early and returning late every day, and even after returning home, I heard Hornacek's wife complain that Lao Huo would watch videos at home every night and see late at night, which seriously affected the harmonious life between their husband and wife.

"It's the first time I've played in the playoffs after all!" This Suns team is a newcomer both in the core and the coach, and it is false to say that it is not nervous.

"Humph!" Hornacek straightened his sleeves and stepped into the locker room.

There is no doubt that in the first half of this game, Li Mojie's performance until now is very good, whether it is against Mate Barnes or Griffin, he perfectly executed Hornacek's tactical arrangement, attracted the attention of the defense and then divided the ball, and did a very decisive job when hitting the inside, helping the team to score points in a row, but he is still a rookie after all, he has not been replaced in the first half to rest, and the efficiency of the next few offenses has obviously decreased.

"In the third quarter, Li Mojie must take a break." Hornacek frowned and thought, but after Li Mojie left the court, the Suns didn't have a strong point!

"Next, in the third quarter, Sessions, Green, PJ, Marcus, Markieff, you five go up, Mojab you take a break, you five go up and you have to pay attention to speed, counterattack and defense, you know?"

"Got it, Coach!" Li Mojie gasped and replied that Li Mojie was in full attendance for 82 games in the regular season this season, and the average playing time was as high as 35.4 minutes per game, especially in the latter games in April, in order to strive for a good ranking, Li Mojie played more than 38 minutes in several games, exceeding the "red line" set by the Suns uniform team before the season! So he's really feeling tired right now.

On the other side, Rivers was even more dissatisfied, and actually tied with the Suns 52:52 in the first half? You must know that the goal of the Clippers this season is to win the championship! If the Clippers, who have gathered Paul, Griffin, and Jordan, fall in the first round again, then the pressure on him as a coach can be imagined.

"Let's take a look, the Clippers also made huge changes to the lineup at the beginning of the second half, Darren Collisson, Jamal Crawford, Danny Granger, Glen Davis, DeAndre Jordan, only one Jordan Jr. was left in the starter, and the coaches on both sides tacitly chose to continue to let the team's core players rest for a while." On the other end, ESPN's commentator Mike Brin said.

"It's a bench duel between the two sides, Steve, who do you think will be better?" Van Gundy asked Nash.

"Suns!" Nash said without hesitation.

"Oh? Why? Steve, you know, almost all the media before the game thought that the Clippers' roster was far better than the Suns. Van Gundy asked curiously, and Nash's answer also piqued the interest of the audience.

"Yes, that's true in terms of the starting lineup, but I now think the Suns have a better chance of winning this game than the Clippers." Nash said, shaking his head.

"Why is that?" Brin would also love to hear what the point guard who will enter the Hall of Fame after retiring from the game has to say.

"I just said that the Clippers' starting lineup is stronger than the Suns, but the score was tied at 52:52 in the first half, although the Suns' bench is not famous, but I have seen their strength in the regular season, I think whether it is the Morris brothers who can be inside and out, or Gerald Green, PJ Tucker, Ramon Sessions can firmly occupy the starting position in other teams on the fringes of the playoffs, and the Clippers' bench, Jordan Jr.'s bench is only Ryan Hollins, who scored 2.3 points in the regular season, which also caused Rivers to not dare to replace Jordan Jr. at all, and another point, Crawford, yes, he used to be the best sixth man, but he now only shoots 41.6% in the regular season, and the defensive end has never been what he is good at, so I think the Suns will firmly dominate the game next! Nash was not shocked to die, and actually made such a conclusion directly before the second half of the game began.

Brin, while listening to Nash's opinion in his ear, and listening to the director's words about the rising ratings, not only showed a bright smile on his face: "Okay, it looks like Nash still misses the Suns, so now let's see if the Suns can beat the Clippers at home?" ”

Time passed by a little bit in the discussion, with the Clippers taking the lead on offense, Darren Collison possessing the ball and attacking, and Sessions defending.

Darren Collison you don't know? He's the guy who asked Westbrook to play as a substitute for him in college! Darren Collison is a fast, short point guard with accurate shots; Good at advancing rhythm, average organizational skills, shooting first; He moves well and can put pressure on the ball, but he suffers from the 183cm, who is only 175 pounds (79 kg), which makes Sessions constantly look for opponents against him.

At the beginning of the attack, Crawford did not deliberately ask for the ball, but the ball was in his hands after a circle.

"Old fellow, don't try to score from me!" It was Gerard Green who defended Crawford, and both were strong offensive and weak defenders, but Hornacek chose to play him as a shooting guard considering that Gerald Green's agile lateral speed was just right to defend Crawford.

"Hehe, young man, don't you know if your uncle is still your uncle?" Crawford laughed, then shook Green with a cross-step dribble, then rushed forward into a change of direction, did not break down the right side, gave the ball to his left hand, and after two steps he changed direction and rushed to the left, and then Green threw him away.

"This guy!" Green watched as Crawford ended the round with a coquettish throw.

Crawford is definitely the most gorgeous player in the NBA, coquettish dribbling, and dribbling behind the back in one go to feast the eyes of the fans on the court.

"Green, watch your defense!" Hornacek on the sidelines shouted loudly, this Green is obviously physically strong, but he is always wandering in the league, just because of poor defense and low ball quotient!

But then, Green was ashamed and brave, receiving a pass from Sessions on the run, Green realized that he had a very good chance to get rid of the 6, and after receiving the ball, he made a sharp stop and changed direction to the right, and he dribbled through and rushed into the three-point line.

The change of direction after running and catching the ball, combined with Green's excellent lateral speed, often threw Crawford away in an instant.

Crawford's defense is actually related to Green's eldest brother, not to mention the second brother.

At this time, Crawford was obviously unable to stop Green's onslaught, so he was busy chasing after him, and in front, Jordan Jr. had also moved his feet to prepare for the defense.

But who is Green? That's the nine-finger dunk king, he jumped up in a few steps, and dunked it without caring about anything, leaving a depressed little Jordan.

Sometimes, it's hard to deal with stunned youth, if you are like some players, you see Jordan Jr. defending under the basket, worrying about being blocked or something, and thinking about it, you will often be blocked, and people like Gerard Green, who don't care about the speed at all, where can Little Jordan have time!

"Good shot! Gerard Green's flying buckle! And the Suns immediately returned to defense after Green's dunk and didn't give the Clippers any chance to counterattack. ”

Well, that's right, the tallest person on the Suns court at this time is Markieff Morris, 208cm, and they are all young men in their 20s, and the speed is not in the same class as the Clippers! ”

Next, the ball was converted, Collison dribbled the ball and wanted to play the pick-and-roll, after all, the block-and-roll was the most suitable tactic for him, but the Suns changed their defense much faster than the Clippers, and there was no obvious dislocation after changing a few times, although Crawford finally passed the ball out, but at this time there was little offensive time left, and Granger could only force a shot against PJ Tucker's defense, and then ended up playing iron.

The old brother Markiff went around in time to firmly stuck Jordan Jr. behind him, and his younger brother Marcus grabbed the rebound that rebounded in this direction and passed it to Green, and then he rushed towards the front court quickly, and at this time, the Clippers' return speed was obviously a little unable to keep up!
