Chapter 108: [Pacers' Road Trip]
The false prosperity of the Rockets was debunked.
They don't have the qualifications to compete with the Pacers, who lost to the Spurs because Sushi found the joy of 'striking iron'. The Rockets can't provide it, their defensive players are just a soak, and Suhey has no interest in scoring points on them.
Let's play tactical.
As soon as the tactics are played, the rocket is finished.
They scored 21 points in the first quarter and the Pacers scored 33.
They scored 23 points in the second quarter, and the Pacers scored a whopping 68 points in the half.
At halftime, the margin was 24 points.
I'm still playing with a ball.
Tracy Maddy was pretty upset by Artest and Stephen Jackson tonight. In the first half, the Rockets relied purely on Maddy's output.
After the start of the second half of the game, Yao Ming's physical fitness also declined and his condition was reduced under the repeated consumption of big men such as Foster, Barty, Spola, and Harrison.
Maddie was on the rise for a few minutes, but soon languished again.
Not long after the fourth quarter, Jeff Van Gundy voluntarily applied for a timeout to declare garbage time.
Can't fight.
Not a level at all.
Although the Rockets have Yao Ming and Maddie, they have no one except Yao Ming and Maddie. A guy from Bob Sula also provoked Suhi vigorously, and was interrupted by Suxi for two consecutive rounds, and was directly shaken down by Suxi once and knocked over once during the march.
From start to finish, the walker is in a crushing position.
The Rockets fans watching this Chinese derby were cold, and they couldn't find any reason to comfort themselves.
Yao Ming had 19 points and 11 rebounds, and Maddy had 20 points, four assists and three rebounds.
That's it?
Su Xi took three pairs. 18 points, 12 assists, 11 rebounds, 5 steals and 2 blocks. He also led the team to win the game.
Who would dare to say that Maddie is a superstar and Suhee is not?
"I can understand the rush of the rockets to get stronger, but Rome was not built in a day. Tracy Maddy lacks some hard-hitting experience, and he doesn't show as much quality against high-intensity defences as Yao. ”
Suhi did not shy away from speaking after the game.
He just wanted to raise Yao Ming's hand.
Just like when he saw Yao Ming on the court asking for the ball at Su Yan, Su La didn't give it.
Susie ran straight up, made a steal with a strong defense, and Sula, who was playing, was replaced off the court early.
Su Xi was teaching Yao Ming how to do things.
Waiting for the tactical position to fall from the sky is not possible in the NBA. Even if Jeff Van Gundy values the center, if you don't be a little stronger, you won't be able to catch it.
Tianyu does not take it, but suffers the blame.
"Of course, we have to admit it. When Maddie came to Houston from the East to assist Yao Ming, it did bring positive changes to them. Looking forward to the next meeting, Maddie can be more integrated into Yao Ming's embodiment. It's like when I was in the Chinese team and integrated into the Yao Ming system. ”
Su Xi gave Yao Ming the biggest face.
His words are sure to make headlines.
He lifted Yao Ming up.
When you go out, the Chinese don't help the Chinese, are they still people?
Su Xi carried Yao Ming here.
Stephen Jackson and Artest over there are stepping on Maddie.
"I don't think he's great, he's talented, he's technical. He just softened a little, he didn't dare to confront us, he didn't have the courage to kill us. We've seen a lot of scorers like him. ”
Stephen Jackson said with a look of disdain after the game.
Ron Artest, who was standing next to him, kept nodding his head, and they looked like a perfect match.
They mocked Tracy Maddie mercilessly. Although they don't have a deep hatred with Maddie, but Maddie, you don't respect Suhee the sheep, are you still a person?
This is a blatant provocation to our entire Indiana, and in that case, we will talk to him about the morality of the rivers and lakes and go together.
"I think it's hard for him to win in the playoffs, he doesn't have that kind of temperament, you know?" Atay also mends the gun.
After the two of them talked about it, all the artillery fire was thrown on Maddie.
Maddie herself didn't expect a good Chinese derby, and she didn't pretend to be anything. As a result, after taking a look, it was directly set on fire.
This made his face pale, and he dropped a sentence: See you next time.
Then, Houston's reporters reported that Maddie was pressuring management after the game, hoping to get more help, and named a defensive giant.
The Pacers headed to their next stop, Phoenix, with the victory.
Phoenix Phoenix has taken off this season, and Mike De Antoni has given this team a new lease of life, and it is a surging vitality that is different from the mainstream rhythm of the league.
Stephen Nash is the executor, and under his leadership, the Suns have improved by leaps and bounds, and their record this season is second only to the Spurs.
Ranked second in the West.
They have a very fast style, although the international men's basketball team has been popular in the past, and the NBA has also been on the Lakers show-time. But it's the first time in the NBA that they've been so fast.
The Pacers are a team that is based on a defensive position, and their defensive counterattack, although quickly pushed by Suhey, is normally a tight defensive positional type.
As soon as the game started, Stephen Nash gave Sushi a dismissal.
He rushed to the front like a whirlwind and beckoned Stoudemire to go up and block it. Suhee watched their game highlights until the two of them had a lot of power in their pick-and-rolls.
Therefore, he subconsciously retreated half a step.
Who knew that Nash jumped up and shot directly, without the slightest hesitation, his shot was very fast, which did not conform to normal basketball logic at all.
Suhi was a beat slower despite being quick to make up the defense.
Swish!
Three-point shot.
Nash smiled.
The Suns' starting lineup is: Stephen Nash, Quentin Richardson, Joe Johnson, Sean Marion, Stoudemire.
It's a small lineup with a lot of mobility.
When you fall into position, you are a little passive.
Suhey crushed Nash's defense, and he went to the basket. Stoudemire, who had a holiday with him, tried to defend, but worked hard in vain... He's not the defensive one. Su Xi's shoulders shook, and before his eyes flew, he flew first, Su Xi flashed under the basket and dunked it.
The game continues.
The Pacers are not comfortable with the Suns' offensive rhythm.
Stoudemier's is too out, and Foster's defense can't cover it.
Let Stoudemire shoot in the high post.
Back on the defensive end, they automatically lay flat.
O'Neal Jr. singled Sean Marion, Marion just took out the ball when O'Neal Jr. turned his back, but didn't take it off, so he forgot it, and put O'Neal Jr. into the basket to complete the dunk.
Serve quickly.
A subversive style of play.
The Phoenix people call it a run-and-gun.
Sushi was very interested in this.
He follows Nash, who is very strong, he has a lot of speed on the ball, he has a wide field of vision and a very subtle way of passing.
In terms of passing and assist ability, Suhee is still a notch behind Nash even if he gets Magic Johnson's spatial talent.
Suhey's passing ability is called adequate, and it is above average.
Nash's pass could go to the Hall of Fame.
And his penetrating ability is very strong, whether it is a shooting between the march or outside the three-point line, he is very threatening.
This makes Suhi sigh at the wonder of basketball, basketball is a group game, it doesn't require you to be perfect in every aspect. But as long as you're strong in something and have a set of tactics that perfectly suits your push, you're going to be able to make a legend.
It's like Nash.
In the first half of the game, the two sides played back and forth, and they were very passionate. In the second half, the Suns suddenly came full of fire in the third quarter, shooting a total of 11 shots from beyond the three-point line, hitting 7, and this quarter of the game allowed them to open up a 15-point difference.
But, back to the fourth verse.
Under Suhi's leadership, every player is 100 per cent in shape, starting from the defense: after two weeks of game adjustment, the players are gradually getting into shape. And Suhi has evolved again, as well as Stephen Jackson's seamless integration, plus a ready-made system.
The Suns quickly understood what Finals-level defense was.
The Pacers were on their toes, tying 15 points in just nine minutes.
Then for three minutes, the flesh was cut with a blunt knife, and the sun was slowly and slowly crushed.
The sun simply does not have the energy to resist.
However, this match left Sushi in awe. He knows the Suns are still in their early stages, and in time they will become an even more formidable offensive weapon.
Offensive weapons born purely for offense and for killing.
After the game, Suhi consulted Carlisle: "We have to keep up with the times, we have to study their style of play. Now the league has a tighter grip on defense, which clearly encourages offense. ”
Carlisle seriously agreed.
Carlisle is not a pure defensive coach, he has no style, no baggage, no stereotypes, and can change his coaching course at any time.
After beating the Suns, the Indiana Pacers embarked on another long flight to Denver, then Portland, and then... They flew across the United States to New York.
This is a normal operation for a long season.
In Denver, the Pacers won an unremarkable game. Suhi's college buddy Cameron Anthony played well, he was a veteran defender against Stephen Jackson and Ron Artest, a classical forward with plenty of scoring tools and a strong body that wasn't afraid to fight.
The victory was unremarkable. There's nothing new about the whole trip to Denver, and the only memorable episode is when Stephen Jackson and Ron Artest are photographed in and out of Denver's famous Bunny Girl Club.
Such exposure does no harm to NBA players at all, but rather leaves a good impression on them in the player community.
The private lives of NBA players are even more exciting than you think.
"I don't know if it's because of the Colorado Plateau, so the girls here in Denver are obviously deeper. They're definitely deeper than Indiana, and it's not just here. Stephen Jackson pointed to his throat, then nodded underneath himself, "And here." ”
"It's because of the geographical location, the earth is very magical, it subtly transforms the human body." Reggie Miller is serious nonsense, he's an old guy on the team, but he never takes the lead. "Next time you come to Denver, you'll definitely take me with you to participate in this human experiment."
Neither Artey nor Jackson refused.
Then, in Portland, they did another body painting experiment.
The Pacers took out the Trail Blazers with great ease, and the Trail Blazers, now known as the Prison Team, hoarded a bunch of people like Ruben Patterson, Stoudemire Jr., Zach Randolph, Darius Myers... and a bunch of problem players, speeding, drinking, fighting, illegal possession of controlled firearms, police officers went to the training camp to take urine tests, and ran to nightclubs to hold aunt memorial services.......
The people here speak very well.
In the game, I almost didn't do it.
However, the Pacers have the upper hand, they are very imposing, and these reckless men are not afraid of the Trail Blazers' medicine jars.
Jackson and Artest took the lead, Barty and O'Neill Jr. flanked each other, and Ruben Patterson was pulled away by Zach Randolph before the flying squirrel Stoudemire could come over.
It's not a notch.
Look at the swear words that Jackson swears, those are authentic gangsta slang.
And if you really want to make a move, most of the pioneers can't bear it.
The game is won, and after winning, of course, be happy.
Known as the City of Roses, Portland is a garden city. Then the media reported the news that the Pacers had formed a group to collect honey.
Suhi was taken to visit the headquarters by Nike, thanks to Suxi's fame. Coupled with the big sales of Suhi's signature shoes, Nike really wanted to re-sign a contract with Suxi, and they even said that half of the contract salary that had been paid before would be given to Suhi for free.
They are offering $150 million for a new contract over 10 years.
Fifteen million dollars a year, that's pretty safe.
However, Suhi is not stupid.
It's a fool to sign this kind of contract with Nike.
Su Xi's reward return in this contract is a million profits, not to mention that after meeting the conditions, Su Xi can also directly distribute dividends.
150 million may seem like a lot, but it's divided into ten years. That's a loss to grandma's house.
That's it, James's side kept protesting, saying that Nike favored one over the other and wanted Suxi to be the top brand.
Nike almost cried and begged Sushi.
He even said that he would build a building for Suhi and name it after Suhi.
Sushi wasn't interested in any of that, so he stared at the rewards.
So, the atmosphere ended in a friendly and awkward atmosphere.
During the long flight to New York, Suhi flipped through the contents of the newspaper. Artay, Jackson, Miller, Barty, O'Neal Jr., Anderson... Visiting the Diamond Club as a group, Miller also brought a female companion back to the hotel for the night.
Miller, you old comrade is really playing flowers.
"Tony, you're not going to learn well." Suhi couldn't help but criticize Tony Barty.
Barty is serious: "I look at it with a critical eye, and my eyes are full of art. They have roses painted on their sleeves there. I like the colorful girls, it's a satire of skin color discrimination. Every time I sprint, I think about the dilemma of black people picking cotton back then..."
Little O'Neal on the side was very experienced, and he said, "No, Tony. I think you think you remember those suffering compatriots just to delay ... It's too tight here in Portland......"
"Yes, it's geographically determined. The tides of the moon have an effect on the continental United States, and the tides of the Pacific Ocean unwittingly transform the bodies of Portland women......" Reggie Miller is serious nonsense.
Sushi was speechless.
But, in their depictions, he's also a little... Imagination.
Maybe when I get to New York, I should do some tricks.
Let Scarlett go cos Catwoman?
Am I going to be the Iron Warrior again?
Young ideas are wild.
Of course, for Susie, the reason why he was so relaxed was because the Knicks really didn't deserve his pre-game preparation.
It sucks.
