252. Dior
At the American Airlines Center, home of the Suns, the Hawks really didn't fall behind in the opening period.
The cornerstone of maintaining the balance of power remains the defensive ......
The backcourt combination of Van Exel and Crawford stepped back quickly, and blocked Nash's path one after the other, taking turns to entangle Phoenix's core point guard in the first place, and Thibodeau was clearly limiting the Suns' offense from the source.
However, this alone can't stop the Suns' offense at all, the Suns are used to the wings when they break fast, if the Phoenix people's 7-second fast break is a highlight, you can clearly see the "V" word sketched by D'Antoni, even after falling into the positional battle, the Suns have a very high shooting rate after the high block in the middle and the perimeter space after the opponent shrinks the defense. In fact, from the perspective of Jiang Qi, a layman pseudo-fan, the Suns have three treasures to win, one is Nash, the second is speed, and the third is the overwhelming three-point frenzy.
Thibodeau is now throwing fast interior players on the court, and since there is no reliable interior and point guard to limit the Suns' crazy offense through rhythm, then at least not fall behind in speed.
Of course, the pace can keep up with the pace of D'Antoni's bombardment, and if the offensive efficiency is low, it will not be able to maintain the balance of power. So in addition to using speed and defensive initiative to limit the Suns' offense as much as possible, the feel of the two guns on the outside of Crawford and Van Exel is also key.
Anderson, who is very non-mainstream from head to toe, is more of a role in rushing for rebounds, facing an opponent like Xiao Si who will fall out of gear when defending, Anderson's positivity gives the Hawks more opportunities for secondary offense, and also gives the two players on the outside a little more confidence when projecting.
"That's what I'm worried about......," Jiang Qi leaned back on the sofa, "I don't know much about basketball, but I'm also a head coach, and I can understand the attitude of the players." Now the Eagles rely on talent and hard work to play, often in front of the opponent, or even ahead of the opponent, but the physical state is curved, the concentration of the players on the court is also fluctuating, once these two pillars become weak, the team can rely on the ball to play becomes very pale. ”
"Building a defensive system is not something that can be solved overnight, and more importantly, even if the defensive system can be started now, the offensive chaos will still turn the team into a leg."
Xue Bing was a little puzzled, "There are so many teams in the league, won't every team be able to sort out the offense decently, right?" ”
Jiang Qi nodded, "Yes, players like Nash who can string together a team are scarce, but they also have super scorers, the team has a player who can cut about 30 points a game, it will attract the opponent's bag, and the team with stars can not need too complicated tactics, and the single can attract the bag and then transfer." But it's still that problem, we can't predict the form of the players and the injuries......"
"But this is a contradictory question, just like this Suns team, if there is no Nash, I'm afraid the results will be turned upside down."
"I'm just hoping to find a balance......"
Sure enough, just between the two of them, the situation of the game changed.
The shooting rate of the Hawks' outside two guns began to decline, and the Suns still ran tirelessly, from Smalls to Marion, from Joe Johnson, who would have become the king of the Hawks in the future, to Richardson, whose name is the same as Quentin's director, these four people can cut in the air, can pull out and shoot three-pointers, even if there are one or two poor hands, Nash can find teammates with a feel when adjusting the connection point, not to mention that the Suns' point guard is not only excellent in passing, but also in three-point shots and various shots after the break.
Seeing that the gap in the score was about to widen, Thibodeau quickly called a timeout, but to Jiang Qi's surprise, Uncle Tom did not make personnel adjustments.
Players from both sides returned to the field and the Eagles kicked off at halftime.
Crawford controlled the ball, and then what surprised the Eagles' interior Dior was like a small possession, running out of the paint area to make a high block for Crawford in the middle......
Almost at the same time as Dior came out, Van Exel ran towards the bottom corner and Josh Smith pulled to the outside at a 45-degree angle.
"Is this a tribute to the Suns?" ESPN's on-site commentary is also speculating about what the Eagles' tactical development will look like this time.
With Dior's pick-and-roll, Crawford dove headlong into it. If the Suns still have someone to defend, it must be Marion, the hacker waved a pair of long arms to quickly help defend in place, but he didn't expect Crawford's ball to return to the hands of the Frenchman who blocked the high, Dio's range was good, Johnson hurriedly came over and waved his hand symbolically, and at this time, Smith, who was originally guarding his defense, immediately seized the gap and cut in, and the basketball in Dior's hand also struck along the gap in the lower three lanes, and Anderson blocked the lazy Xiao Si, This allows Smith's speed and power to unleash heartily and dedicate a blast to the home crowd.
The cup of black tea in the rookie director's hand stopped in mid-air, and the word "hey" seemed to be mixed with a little surprise.
Although the starting point of this attack was Crawford, in fact, the core was Boris Dior, who mentioned the high position, and it was his excellent strategy that opened up a brave path for Smith.
The Suns clearly didn't care about the Hawks' changes, and in their opinion, this offensive approach was too complicated.
Xiao Si drove the ball quickly in the backcourt, taking advantage of Van Exel's not returning, Nash had already dribbled through the halfcourt, and as for the basket, there were already hackers sprinting there, and Marion was at the forefront of the forward team than the athletic talent.
1、2、3、4…… If someone counts silently, they will find that in just four seconds, Marion is ready to make a layup.
But he was still careless, just when the basketball just left the palm of his hand, a dark shadow shrouded up from behind, and Josh Smith's pegboard hat caused an uproar in the audience!
The Hawks, who burst out with infinite vitality at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, suddenly became full of momentum, Crawford picked up the rebound and threw it to Van Exel, did not launch a fast break, and the Suns retreated at the same amazing speed.
The old point guard dribbled and waited for his teammates to gather again, Dior pulled out again to block in the high post, this time Nash moved quickly, followed Van Exel and ran into the inside, and the basketball was once again back in Dior's hands, the Frenchman raised his hand to make a breakthrough shake, and suddenly threw the ball horizontally to Crawford at a 45-degree angle.
Richardson was immediately nervous, but he didn't expect Crawford to neither rush nor shoot, and pass the ball back. This time the French did not hesitate, directly wiped Marion's side and killed it, Marion struggled to follow, the inside line suddenly made a mess, and the ball suddenly flew out of the dense crowd in the next second, and Crawford, who was still at a 45-degree angle just now, cut to the bottom corner at some point, and calmly raised his hand to hit three points.
The back-to-back scoring and Smith's big hat allowed the Hawks to bite the opponent again, and D'Antoni gestured on the sidelines, quickly called a timeout, and just as he turned to the tactical board, the corner of his eye was still firmly glancing at the Eagles' power forward......
Boris Dior, the Eagles' sophomore, unexpectedly got the team's offense organized.
