Osborne also saw the Suns' routine clearly, Steve Nash is the heart of the whole team, the engine, as long as he cuts off the connection with the rest of the team, the Suns' run-and-gun tactics will not be completed, and the other players will fall into their own singles.

However, Steve Nash is not a player to mess with, and there are many people who want to guard him, but few can do it, after all, there is always a gap between ideals and reality.

Of course, the Pistons have such conditions, first of all, Chauncey Billups's individual ability is not inferior to any point guard, at least not inferior in confrontation.

And the Pistons' defensive system just restrains an offensive powerhouse like the Suns, although it may not be able to withstand it at first, but the Pistons are still very dominant in the next confrontation.

Therefore, Osborne thinks that the Suns' points should be gradually decreasing, so that the Pistons' hopes of winning will greatly increase.

Just do it, he told Larry Brown about this idea, in fact, Larry Brown had such an idea for a long time, but since Osborne proposed it, he simply agreed to it as a favor.

He also added: "Actually, everyone can see that the heart of the Suns is Steve Nash, he is the engine of the Suns' offense, as long as he has a problem, the rest of the Suns players will also fall into chaos, so next Chauncey your task is heavy, you have to keep an eye on Steve Nash would rather him score on his own than let him pass the ball comfortably, of course, you have to score." ”

Then he said to Richard Hamilton and Tysa Amplins, "In the third and fourth quarters, you two have to use your defense to help Steve Nash." ”

Richard Hamilton and Tysa Ann Prince also knew that their mission was also important, after all, Chauncey Billups alone would not necessarily be able to guard against Steve Nash, so Larry Brown added two double insurances.

After Larry Brown made this arrangement, he stopped talking nonsense and directly signaled the players to prepare for their own preparations.

At half-time, the second half changed sides and Osborne restarted.

The Suns' possession, Chauncey Billups is now focused on following Steve Nash without distractions, Steve Nash feels that Chauncey Billups is obviously different from just now, and his defensive moves are quite big, but not to the point where Steve Nash is disgusted.

Steve Nash also got the ball with great difficulty, and Osborne couldn't help but laugh when he saw Steve Nash's embarrassed appearance.

Chauncee Billups and the rest of the players were ready to watch out for the Suns' offense, so Steve Nash clearly saw that he was cut off from the rest of the Suns, and although there seemed to be little defense in some positions, he was sure that as long as he wanted to pass the basketball, someone would come over and steal violently.

Steve Nash didn't shoot recklessly, and chose to attack by himself, after all, he was sure to score this offense, Steve Nash first had his body to lean on Chauncey Billups, and then shook left and right for two consecutive times, regardless of Chauncey Billups' actions, directly crossed Chaunsibilups' flank to make a simple and brisk pick-up action, and scored the basketball, Chauncey Billups didn't care about this, and turned directly to prepare for the Pistons to attack.

The Pistons players counterattacked very quickly, and Osborne also made a three-pointer regardless of Quentin Richardson's defense, and then the rest of the Pistons quickly returned to the defense and continued to limit the movement of other players.

Steve Nash will quickly understand that the Pistons are trying to cut him off from the rest of the Suns and put him in a personal singles situation, and his individual offensive power is no better than Osborne's, because his physical strength can't keep up, and Osbourne is a hanging force with no physical hindrance.

So Steve Nash is no longer just attacking by himself, but also looking for some opportunities to cooperate with his teammates, he tried to break through Chauncey Billups regardless of physical strength, Chaunsi Billups is also trying his best not to let Steve Nash break through, Steve Nash has broken through many times without success, but Amarestadmeier's position is behind Ben Wallace, and this time Steve Nash found an opportunity.

Steve Nash pretended to break through from the left side again, and Chauncey Billups also hurried to the left, but Steve Nash quickly dribbled to the right and broke through, and Chauncey Billups couldn't react, but fortunately, Richard Hamilton came in time to block his way.

Nash didn't care about other direct small throws, directly past Richard Hamilton and Chauncey Billups, Ben Wallace, and Stoudemire were also familiar with Steve Nash's passing style, often unexpected, so he has adapted, at the beginning, Stoudemire always couldn't catch Steve Nash's pass, causing Steve Nash's mistakes, but after a period of adaptation, they are now familiar with each other.

Stoudemire pushed through Ben Wallace's confinement, jumped straight to his feet, received Nash's pass and came back with a big dunk.

Larry Brown admires the cooperation between the two of them, but he is not worried at all, because even if the Suns score this so-called cooperation, the offensive time is almost used up every time, which also shows that the Suns' so-called seven-second offense no longer exists, and now it is the offensive rhythm of the Pistons.

The Pistons' offense has never relied on fast offense, but rather on high offensive shooting percentage.

The Suns' offense is slowing down, Joe Johnson and Sean Marion need a lot of preparation to complete the offense, and the Pistons' pace is slowly picking up, because Chauncey Billups and Osborne both want the Pistons to increase their speed, as long as they can complete an empty catch.

The two teams are so anxious, no one will let anyone, and then it will be up to who can break the deadlock.

In fact, at this time, of course, the core of the team stepped up, Osborne's scoring efficiency is very high, and Steve Nash, who was cut off from other players, is not good, his assist statistics have decreased sharply, his scoring efficiency is not as good as before, and the offense of other players of the Suns team has also gone through a lot of hard work to score, and they are not very easy to score.

So the Suns' score in the third quarter was even lower than in the second quarter, only 21 points, and their score really showed a gradual decreasing trend, while the Pistons were different, their scores were still relatively stable, 33 points in the first quarter, 25 points in the second quarter, and 29 points in the third quarter, while the Suns trailed the Pistons 82:87.

Mike De Anthony saw the Suns' situation, and felt a little bad, and it was very likely that he would still fall behind the Pistons in the fourth quarter, because the physical strength of the Suns' main team could no longer support them to continue playing, and there were still two players on the Pistons' side who were full of energy, one was Osborne and the other was Tysha Amplins.
