Nelson looked at Li Zhi, who was warming up, his eyes burned, and said, "George, what problems do you think we have with our current offense?" ”

"Questions?" Li Zhi hugged the basketball, thought about it, and said with a smile: "It's no problem, we can now average 101 points per game, ranking fifth in the league tied with the Nuggets, which is already very good." ”

Nelson smiled and said: "It's really good, but it's still a little bit worse than I imagined, last season we averaged 108.2 points per game, but we didn't win as much as this season, this season we scored less, but won more, do you think our tactics are in the wrong direction." ”

Li Zhi was rarely silent, and after a season, Nelson had begun to doubt himself. In Nelson's coaching career, there has never been a season when the team record can be so high, and the Warriors with a complete lineup are among the top four teams in the West.

Originally, winning was a good thing, but if the win made Nelson Sr. doubt his own path, it would be more than worth the loss. So Li Zhi said: "Coach, I feel that offense is the general trend of the league. If you attack well, you can also win. The defense decides the winner at the crucial moment, but the offense decides the direction of the score most of the time. ”

Nelson nodded and said, "You have a very good opinion on tactics, and if you retire in the future, you may be able to become a coach." ”

Li Zhi sneered: "That's too far away, I'd better become a superstar first." ”

Speaking of this, Li Zhi changed his tone and said: "Nash is a good fit for our system, D'Antoni is gone, the Suns have become a lottery, maybe we can try to trade Nash in the offseason." ”

Nelson was thoughtful, then smiled bitterly: "George, Nash can't be traded, he's very special in the low position of the Suns, and no one can trade him unless he wants to leave himself." ”

Li Zhi didn't believe it and said, "That's not necessarily, if we show championship level strength, I don't believe Nash will not be interested in us." ”

Unash, who was warming up, seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look at Li Zhi, who nodded in greeting, but felt that this idea was becoming more and more feasible in his heart.

The Warriors are in dire need of a No. 1 spot who can control the tempo right now, and if there's anyone in the league who can handle the bombardment tactics, it's Nash. And if the Warriors can draft Curry next season, Curry will definitely be quick with Nash's help.

Nash is the kind of player who likes to work as a team and always puts the passing first, and someone like him is a good partner for a scoring maniac like Rich. The current Suns, only one Xiao Si can still help him, the other players have degraded, and the Warriors are the opposite, Richie, Crawford, Nick Young, Jordan Jr., Milicic, all in the growth period, and show amazing talent for bombardment, if the right time to throw an olive branch to Nash, Richie believes that Nash will consider the Warriors.

Suns starters: Nash, Richardson, Grant Hill, Stoudemire, Bitrings.

Warriors starters: Crawford, Jackson, Rich, Milicic, O'Neal.

At the beginning of the game, O'Neal jumped the ball to win Bitlins, the Warriors got the ball, Li Zhi ran directly to the front court, and Crawford received the ball and passed directly to Li Zhi.

The Warriors started a fast break in the first round, Grant Hill didn't expect Li Zhi to break fast in the first round, was thrown off two steps, and couldn't catch up anymore, Li Zhi held the ball into the restricted area, and Richardson returned to the defense to arrive.

Since Richardson was traded by the Warriors to the Bobcats, scoring has ushered in a rare explosion, but the good times did not last long, and the Bobcats rebuilt with an iron heart, sending Richardson to the Suns this season. Richardson is the kind of swingman with a lot of physical fitness, otherwise he wouldn't have won the title of dunk king, but his defense is not good, he lacks lateral movement, and his defensive awareness is not good.

Li Zhiqiang beat Richardson, and after getting closer, he directly cast a butterfly through the flower step, passing Richardson to score two points.

Richardson is a long-time friend of Li Zhishen, if it weren't for Richardson, Li Zhi might still be in the Bobcat, so Li Zhi had a good impression of Richardson, and nodded at Richardson after scoring.

Richardson was slightly stunned when he saw Li Zhi's smile, he was really helpless against Li Zhi's attack.

Stoudemire served from the baseline, and Crawford began to interfere with Nash from the back, but Nash still held the ball firmly through the half. With Marion gone, D'Antoni gone, the Suns' seven-second offense was a thing of the past, so Nash didn't launch a fast break either.

Stoudemire pulled up to cover high and Nash bypassed Crawford and broke down the right. Milicic stepped up and Nash immediately passed the ball to Stoudemire in the high post, who adjusted slightly and scored two points on a jumper.

2：2

Crawford can't prevent Nash's elusive passing, and the Suns play a very bad tactic, with point guards and power forwards blocking and dismantling, and the two positions are just the weaknesses of the Warriors. After the blocking, Crawford's defender became Stoudemire, which was even more disadvantaged, even if he defended with all his might, it would be difficult to bring any interference to Xiaosi.

The Warriors attacked, Crawford took the ball to the frontcourt, ran and handed it to Jackson, Jackson held the ball at the top of the arc and feintmed, Li Zhi ran out of the baseline, received Jackson's pass, shook it slightly and did not shake off the experienced Grant Hill, and immediately cast a big change of direction with a butterfly and went straight into the three-point line. Grant Hill's defense was not good enough, coupled with the decline in physical fitness, he was shaken off by Li Zhi.

Grant Hill was also the "successor to Jordan", limited by injuries, has never had a chance to ascend to the throne, and his peak has passed quickly, and the former All-Star ticket king was reduced to a role player after being injured.

Li Zhi broke through to the penalty area, O'Neal tacitly went to the right side of the penalty area and took away Bitlins, Li Zhi was unblocked and played a layup.

4：2

Stoudemire was held back by Milicic, who improved a lot in his ability to get into the position. Richie scored four points in a row, and in addition to O'Neal's containment, Milicic's card position also contributed to it.

In the Suns, the ball is always in Nash's hands, and the others are responsible for pick-and-roll and movement, and this time was no exception.

After the run, Nash passed the ball to Richardson at 45 degrees to the left, who broke straight ahead of old teammate Stephen Jackson.

After being traded to the Suns, Richardson increased the frequency of three-point and breakaways, which had a lot to do with the fact that the Suns were unavailable. When Stoudemire didn't have a chance, Richardson was the Suns' second point of attack.

Jackson realized that he was out of position, and when he saw Li Zhi go to help defend, Jackson immediately went to make up for Grant Hill that Li Zhi missed, which was a tacit understanding between the two for a long time. Facing Richie head-on, Richardson didn't go to the basket, but passed to Bitlins.

After Bitlins joined the Suns, he served as a substitute for a while, but he started in the second half of the game and cooperated well with Stoudemire.

Bitlins is a hard-working blue-collar worker, and he is a good match for the All-Star interior lineman Xiao Si on the inside. In the Suns, Bitlins has a lot more shots than in the Warriors, and many of them are catch-and-go layups.

In this round, Bitlins scored two points, and the scores of the two teams returned to the same running line.
