142: Sun at Pepsi Center...... Really won't attack anymore!?
With the aura of MVP, Ryan opened the second round of the series.
As soon as the second round arrives, the gap between the East and West ratings becomes very large.
After all, whether it's Nuggets vs. Suns, or Mavericks vs. Warriors.
The level of the opponents is higher than that of the eastern side.
A group of teams with more than 40 wins and 50 wins in the east are fighting each other, and there are few stars in total, so what can there be to see?
This side of the west is different, from the second round, it is a real peak showdown!
The 59 wins over the Suns are already the fewest wins of any team in the Western Conference semifinals!
On one side of the garbage dump and on the other side of the high-end field, everyone knows how to choose.
When Ryan walked onto the court and began to warm up on the sidelines, he was surprised to find that Taylor. Swift actually sat in the front row wearing his number 0 jersey.
She wore a long ponytail today, and her makeup was fresh and elegant, only the bright red lips were particularly eye-catching.
When Taylor saw Ryan, her eyes immediately bent into a crescent moon, and those sky-blue eyes that sparkled like jewels were full of the little girl's admiration for her handsome big brother.
Ryan took the initiative to walk in front of Swift, after all, a singer wearing his own jersey came to the scene, and it seemed a little rude to ignore people's words.
Seeing Ryan approaching, Mildew also stood up.
Her face immediately turned red, like a ripe apple. At the same time, his hands were tightly clutching the corners of his clothes, and his shoulders trembled slightly, as if he was very nervous.
Can you not be nervous about peeking at someone else being found and someone else coming towards you?
As Ryan approached, Mildew felt like her mind was in turmoil. She tried to be natural, but the shyness and nervousness inside made her feel like she was about to suffocate.
How do I say hello when it's over?
Hi?
Hello?
Say hello in Chinese?
My makeup isn't off, is it? No card powder, right?
Before Mildew could speak, Ryan had already spoken in advance.
"Hey, I'm so surprised to see you at PepsiCenter.
If you say you want to come, I can give you a ticket, and I can give you a few jerseys. ”
Mildew complained in his heart: "I want to contact you, but I don't have any contact information!" Last time you cut the cake and left, you didn't even talk to me much! ”
Ryan also seems to remember this stubble:
"Oh yes, I was so excited after the last game that I forgot to leave my contact information.
Stay one later, take me with you at the concert in the future, I haven't been on stage at a concert yet, after all, you are the first singer I know.
I'm not very good at singing, but I can dance with you in bib pants or something. ”
Swift was amused and smiled, feeling less nervous for a moment: "I can't afford to hire a backup dancer like you, unless you're willing to help me for free." ”
"That's not going to work, at least I'll have to make a meal for me."
"I'll only bake cakes, okay?"
"Hahahaha, why are you so serious, teasing you."
Kirilenko on the side was full of disdain.
Ryan: You're hiring new free agents again, aren't you?
17 years old is not even at the age of the draft, bastard!
Dare to make fans laugh today, and dare to fry fans tomorrow! You kid is just lawless!
After joking, Ryan asked seriously, "I remember that Denver hasn't been performing recently, right?" How did you come here to watch the game? Don't tell me Kroenke asked you to sing at the opening again. ”
Faced with this question, Swift became stumbling, his eyes flickering:
"Oh, I'm here...... Shoot the MV! That's right, it's the MV for a new song! I'm free tonight, so I just happened to come and watch the game. ”
At this time, the conversation between the two was interrupted by a burst of boos from the scene.
Ryan turned his head to look, and sure enough, it was the Phoenix Suns players who had entered!
Swift saw Ryan, who was still joking just now, and his eyes suddenly became sharp and cold. His gentle smile vanished, replaced by a serious, focused expression.
One second Ryan was still a good big brother next door who loved to joke, and the next second he became a murderous fighter.
"Taylor, it's a pleasure to chat with you. Let's talk about dancing in suspenders again, and then enjoy the game. ”
With that, Ryan walked back to the court and began to warm up.
"Well, come on, you're going to win!"
Watching Ryan leave, Swift sighed deliberately.
Wait, what if you leave the contact information?
Good big brothers of the Suns, you have to come out at this time, right?
Sick of it!
The Phoenix Suns' players also had the same look of expression that someone else owed them 5 million.
After all, Ryan's previous sentence "They won't attack at all at Pepsi Center" made all Suns players angry.
As the league's most offensive team, the Suns are often said to be bad defensively and often not tough enough.
But offense? Ryan was the first person to dare to complain about the Suns' offense!
Although you are indeed a two-year-old MVP, don't be so rampant, right?
The Suns players seem to have forgotten that it is obviously the media of Phoenix and Raja. Bell touches Porcelain Lane first.
However, fans are also eager to see how the Nuggets can keep the Suns from attacking at PepsiCenter.
In an interview before the game, Xiaobawang was naturally not to be outdone: "Does Ryan still think he is DPOY?" Whether we will attack or not, he said that it doesn't count! ”
It's no secret that the little overlord doesn't like Ryan.
After all, he, like the little emperor, was the background board where Ryan could make a name for himself all over the country.
Xiao Si has not forgotten how Ryan humiliated himself at ABCD training camp back then.
Now when Xiao Si is mentioned, people's first reaction is not how strong he is, but the incident when he was violently beaten by Ryan.
It's like when it comes to Malone, people won't talk about his MVP, they won't talk about his super strength.
When it comes to him, his entire career is condensed into one sentence: "It's just a background board pressed by Jordan." ”
Xiao Si didn't want that, he didn't want to live in the shadow of Ryan for the rest of his life.
And beating Ryan in the playoffs is the best way to break the shadows!
From today onwards, my little overlord will be on the verge of support!
The two starters were quickly positioned, and unsurprisingly, Bird did change formations in the second round.
And this lineup is not the first time it has appeared.
The Nuggets' starting five today are Miller, Ellis, Ryan, Kirilenko and Nene in the starting five.
In the regular season, this lineup allowed Ryan to do a 5X5 stat.
D'Antoni smiled, and Bird's change of formation was expected by him.
Also, if a man has the ability to deal with three or four at a time, why should he be hanged from a tree? It's anti-human!
But Bird wants to rely on Ryan's help to contain the Suns' offense? I can't help but think too ideally!
D'Antoni admits that Ryan is a very good defensive player. In the regular season, one person curbed the operation of the GDP three, which is simply a miracle soldier.
But when has my Greater Phoenix been guarded? The Spurs' offense can't be compared to ours!
However, Bird put out this lineup today, in fact, he didn't expect Ryan to do another 5X5 stats.
Today, his main task for Ryan is not to help defend either.
Ryan's defense, there are too many possibilities, and there is more than one way to use it.
Today's method will definitely cut the sun off the horse!
The competition is about to kick off. Bell's gaze was firmly locked on Ryan, with a fierce intensity.
Xiao Si is also eager to try, although he can't become the MVP, he has the determination to disgrace the MVP!
Phoenix fans can't contain their excitement either, and they're all looking forward to proving that they are a strong team that can compete for the title!
The referee kicks off, and the Suns fight for the first offense.
Nash dribbled the ball with his wet pregame licked hands close to the Nuggets halfcourt.
But just after half-time, D'Antoni panicked.
Because today it was Ryan who went directly to the opposite Nash!
Most teams won't be so defensive against the Suns, after all, Nash's offense is strong, not in scoring, but in the passing that can benefit the whole team.
Throughout his life, Nash has never averaged 20 points per game.
In the regular season, Nash only went 40+ twice, and once in the playoffs, he was 40+.
This guy is one of the best offensive players of all time, but by no means a super scorer.
Using the team's number one defensive expert to defend Nash alone is just a waste of energy, so most teams don't do that.
But today, the Nuggets uncharacteristically used Ryan to directly target Nash.
D'Antoni thought that Bird's change of formation was to let Ryan help defend quickly, but it turned out that he simply and rudely used Ryan against Nash?
Oh, you're so guarded, we're going to blow up the scoresheet today!
Nash wasn't afraid of the two-time MVP in front of him, he waved his hand and called for Xiao Si to step forward and cover.
Positional offense, the Suns' V-block no team in the league can deal with.
The V-block is not complicated, it is not an advanced tactic, and it is not even as mysterious as the triangle attack.
Many people may not believe it, Li Nan, who was ridiculed tactically for only "diamond horns" in the 19 World Cup, actually used a lot of V-shaped blocking.
But the same tactics, instigated by different players, will get completely different results.
Nash is the initiator of the offense, and his ability to shoot the ball and his vision are too high.
As a blocking point, Xiao Si's ability to finish down is too high-quality.
On top of that, the Suns' perimeter shooters are also extremely powerful, creating room for the V-block to perform.
So the efficiency of the Suns' V-block is not the same as that of other teams.
In the case of players who are extremely suitable for tactics, even a simple basic tactic can be quite murderous!
Nash broke through immediately after taking cover, and Xiao Si quickly went down.
At this time, if Ryan and Nene switch defenses, Nash can pass the ball to Xiao Si in the blink of an eye, and Xiao Si can use his terrifying scoring ability to finish the offense.
If the wing comes over to fill in the position, Nash can quickly find a teammate in the open space, and his teammates will definitely not be relentless in shooting three-pointers.
Insist on single defense? Nash's individual offense was also incredibly efficient.
The Suns' offense is here, and no team can find the perfect solution!
It's as if your goddess took you into the boudoir and locked the door and confiscated your phone, and then took out a small leather whip and small handcuffs. The only choice you have at this point is how you will be tortured, but the end result is torture.
Drop open threes, let Smalls go down the frame, let Nash shoot, you can only choose which way to lose points.
And the Nuggets chose to resolutely defend one!
After the blocking, the Nuggets did not change their defense, nor did they flank them, but continued to let Ryan defend Nash alone!
Nash used the cover to shake off Ryan for a distance, although Ryan's speed attribute has reached the full level, Nash is not slow, and still relies on the pick-and-roll to get fleeting shooting opportunities.
Nash didn't hesitate, and hit a shot from mid-range!
Ryan, who was invincible defensively, couldn't completely hold Nash down!
As soon as the game opened, the Suns scored smoothly!
This is not what Nuggets fans expected, and it seems that the team's lineup and strategy today still can't hold the Suns down.
D'Antoni laughed, Ryan claimed that the Suns would not attack at Pepsi Center, and that was the result?
Defending against Nash alone and blocking others is a good strategy.
Popovich from the last round also thought of it.
In the last round, after watching Nash deliver 43 assists in the first three games, the Spurs decided to block the rest of the Suns in Game 4.
As a result, in the fourth game, Nash scored 48 points.
Again, it's useless to defend against Nash alone!
Nash Liu beeps and is more lethal with the ball than many great passers.
The future Spanish golden boy Rubio may be no worse than Nash in terms of passing skills, but why has he been tepid in the NBA all his life?
It's because his own offensive threat is really too lazy, and it's useless to just pass the ball.
Nash is different, and his individual offensive threat is precisely the key to his ability to create opportunities for his teammates.
D'Antoni is sure that in a few more rounds, the Nuggets will have to defend Nash.
When the time comes, Nash will be able to show his exquisite passing skills again. Over time, this single defense strategy will be completely useless!
Nash scored safely, but Ryan wasn't frustrated by a defensive deficit in the opening game.
He quickly countered and easily hung through Marion through the pick-and-roll, and when Junior came up, Ryan threw the ball into the air and assisted the inside to score with a dunk.
The Suns' defense was really still vulnerable, and Xiao Sixie's defense was too impatient, completely leaving the Nene behind him behind.
If Webb plays the starting five, Xiao Si can indeed save recklessly to defend.
But today's starting center forward is Nene who is also very mobile, and Xiao Si pounced too hard, but he couldn't protect the frame.
And the Sun's No. 4 Dior is also lacking in skills because he wants to keep an eye on Kirilenko, and he can't help Xiao Si wipe his ass.
The Nuggets' offense was as fast and as fluid as the Suns.
The mobility of this lineup ensures that the Nuggets can run with the Suns without falling behind!
It's not just the offensive end that can run, but the defensive end also ensures the speed of the defense.
But the Suns didn't go seven seconds away from the offense and won't score, and after a round, the Suns played a V-block again.
This time, Nash scored again with a pull-up layup under Ryan's pursuit!
The Suns' offense still didn't make any mistakes!
Although just 10 seconds later, Ryan leveled the score again with a dragon slam dunk that swept the whole game.
However, it seems that the Nuggets are still playing against the Suns today and have not played well on the defensive end.
Suns fans are gearing up, if you attack, who have I been afraid of in Big Phoenix!?
In the following games, the rhythm of the attack between the two sides remained unchanged.
The Nuggets have been using a single-guard Nash strategy throughout, but the results have been very, very mediocre.
First of all, even if the Nuggets are determined to defend one, it doesn't mean that Nash doesn't have any passing opportunities.
The other Suns players are not stakes, they can also cut in and run.
For example, Xiao Si's sudden cut after doing an off-ball screen can throw off a little space to catch the ball, and Nash still has the ability to feed the ball in this case.
Although the resolute one-on-one defense did make Nash's assists not so easy and curb the scoring of the rest of the Suns, there was still a score in the end.
The second point that leads to the average single defense effect is that Nash's personal offense is really powerful!
Today, Nash took a lot of scoring opportunities under Ryan's one-on-one defense.
Nash has always been a highly autonomous player on offense, with his two-point assist rate below 10% during his years with the Suns.
The first is that his shooting ability is too solid, and he can shoot as long as he gives a little space.
Of course, Nash's finishing ability to make layups is not ordinary.
But most crucially, Nash has a historic ability to "handle the ball after being unbalanced".
For example, in the eighth minute of the second quarter, Nash burst into the interior and was entangled by Ryan and chose to force a layup.
But in such a situation, Nash still scored a layup!
Not only the layup, but also the ability to shoot and pass after Nash's imbalance is also a must, this is a guy who can make all kinds of unbelievable moves when his body is out of balance!
With Nash's superb offensive skills, the Suns ended the game with a three-point lead in the first half.
Nash scored 16 points in the first half and Ryan had 17 in the half.
While Ryan scored more, Nash proved to be not afraid of Ryan's one-man defense at all.
It can even be said that Ryan is helpless with Nash, after all, Nash has only averaged 18 points per game this season, but Ryan's defense has 16 points in the second half!
He completed the task of the whole game in half the game today!
Although the Nuggets did curb the Suns' three-point and fast break in the first half, in terms of positional battles, the Suns' offensive efficiency is still very high!
At the end of the half, Xiao Si Yaowu yelled at Ryan: "That's why you can't get DPOY!" You can't stop Steve! ”
Ryan was not angry, but responded to Xiao Si with a smile: "My defense is really not very good, so the person who was once defended by me and couldn't score 10 points in a single game is even worse." ”
Ajan: Ryan, you've got too much range to attack! You change a trash talk!
Xiao Si was so angry that the more he insulted Ryan's defense, the more he felt like he was insulting himself.
Just when Xiao Si's blood pressure soared and he wanted to put out the fire extinguisher with his bare hands, Nash patted him on the back:
"It doesn't matter, we just need to win in the end."
Xiao Si glanced at Nash and felt very relieved.
As long as there is this number 13, the team will be invincible!
At half-time, both of TNT's commentators were also talking about the situation in the first half.
Kevin. Harlan said: "Ryan did overdo it this time, and of course maybe he was just trying to confuse the Suns. He said before the game that the Suns would not attack in Phoenix, but we only saw fierce attacks in the first half, and the Suns' offense was not limited at all. ”
Marvin. Albert shook his head: "Don't jump to conclusions so early, it's just half a game." ”
Marvin. Albert is well aware of Ryan's personality, and although he speaks arrogantly, he can basically do what he says!
The Nuggets' defense today is by no means that simple.
But after the start of the third quarter, the pace of the game still did not change.
The Nuggets are still resolutely man-marking, and Nash's 9 points in the first quarter still helped the Suns lead by 4 points.
Nash scored 25 points in the third quarter of the game today, and Phoenix fans cheered online because of this, believing that this was the biggest humiliation for Ryan!
"That's what DPOY was like last season? Laugh to death, Nash isn't even a scorer! ”
"It turns out that the judges' eyes are bright, and DPOY is just right that he didn't give Ryan this year."
"As I said earlier, the Nuggets are no match for the Suns at all! This time, Ryan's cowhide is blown up! ”
Although the Suns only led by 4 points, according to the script of the first three quarters, it was difficult for the Nuggets to fight back in the fourth quarter.
If Ryan continues to defend alone in the fourth quarter, Nash will definitely be able to score again.
And if the Nuggets change their strategy, then the Suns can attack the whole team.
The Nuggets simply don't have any way to fight it!
On the sidelines, Mildew also looked nervously at the Nuggets bench on the side.
But.
Surprisingly, in this unfavorable situation, the sweaty Ryan looked relaxed.
It's even easier than her audience!
Bird didn't draw too many tactics, just told Ryan: "It's the last quarter, they can't stand it!" ”
Mildew suspects that there is something wrong with his ears, and the basketball game should be won by the team with the highest score, right?
The Nuggets trailed by four points before the fourth-quarter showdown, but the head coach said. The other party can't stand it?
Swift felt like his breath hadn't even calmed down when the electronic beep rang out again.
Sweating profusely, Ryan stood up, his eyes resolute, and stepped into the room with his head held high like a king.
Speaking of which, Mildew feels like Ryan doesn't seem to have much rest in this game.
Originally, she wanted to take advantage of Ryan's rest on the bench to see him more, but Ryan didn't spend much time on the bench tonight.
That's right, Ryan barely rested today.
There was only a two-minute break in the third quarter.
Correspondingly, Nash didn't rest much!
Because of the Nuggets' defensive strategy, once the Suns replace Nash, the offensive power will be greatly reduced.
Xiao Si? If Xiao Si can play Nene alone, of course, it will be a hand-held pinch.
But AK47 won't watch Nene be ravaged by the Overlord.
Xiao Si has no passing vision in his life, and is the only person who has complained about "he doesn't pass the ball at all" in O'Neal except for Kobe.
So if Xiao Si singles, AK47 can flank without worrying about missing Dior. And in the face of AK and Nene's two-man defense, Xiao Si's attack is not so invincible.
At the end of the day, the Suns' offense has to rely on Nash.
As a result, D'Antoni only gave Nash four minutes of rest in the first three quarters today.
Once Nash's offense was replaced, the Suns' offense was paralyzed.
Barbossa? Although he is the sixth man of the year, he can't play Nash like when facing Ryan's defense.
The Suns' offense and Nash's individual scoring are now highly bound.
After the start of the fourth quarter, sure enough, Nash still played, and D'Antoni didn't let him rest.
Bird nodded, almost, it's time to see the effect!
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Suns possessed the ball.
Nash continued to play blocking and dismantling with Smalls, and the Nuggets were still resolute in their man-to-man marking, without changing their defenses.
After Xiao Si went down, Nash saw that Nene was stuck in the passing route and did not give a chance to pass, so he could only make a quick stop jump shot.
In the face of Ryan's timely block, Nash leaned back slightly in the air and raised the arc of the shot.
The basketball succeeded over Ryan's fingertips, but
But it smashed to the front of the basket!
Nash misses singles!
After Kirilenko grabbed the rebound, he immediately made a long pass to find Ryan, who quickly switched from defense to offense.
Ryan easily topped up the Raja. Bale, and then directly under Nash's defense, he made a violent dunk and scored smoothly!
The difference is only 2 points, but the Suns fans are not worried, and the score has been very anxious today.
As long as solar energy stays ahead of the curve.
But after that, the Suns' offense made Phoenix fans swallow their saliva.
Nash's breakthrough layup was caught directly behind Ryan's back!
This ball, Nash made a low-handed layup after breaking through through the cover, and before he could wipe the board, he was directly grabbed by Ryan with one hand!
Even Nash himself was a little surprised, why did Ryan get faster in the fourth quarter?
Ryan didn't get any faster, but Nash slowed down a little bit in the fourth quarter.
Originally, Nash singled Ryan to dance on a tightrope.
A lot of his balls will be covered by Ryan by the slightest fraction.
So now, albeit only slightly slower, Nash can't escape Ryan anymore!
Nash is very tired right now, and he didn't just play a lot of minutes today, he also took a lot of shots.
Nash rarely feels tired on the court, as he can help his team score with an easy pass on the offensive end, or a long pass in the quarter.
But today, under the Nuggets' man-to-man strategy, Nash has to do every ball himself, and he has to shoot like crazy.
Either pull up a jump shot or go inside hand-to-hand combat.
So his physical exertion is several times higher than usual!
And Nash's offense is very hand-to-hand.
After all, he is not like Ryan, who can rely on his strong physique to push through the defense.
But if the physical fitness deteriorates, it will affect the feel, which has a great impact on Nash's offense!
Bird's strategy today is to force Nash to play alone. Nash can score a lot of points, but the Suns can't explode as a team.
Besides, in the face of Ryan's single defense, Nash's score can't kill the game at all!
Well, isn't this starting to work?
The Suns are going to be on offense soon!
Ryan's scratch made Mildew cover his mouth.
Although I have seen this kind of block countless times when I watched Ryan's game highlights on the Internet before.
However, watching it live and watching it through the video are completely different things!
The chase just now made Mildew deeply understand what it means to be oppressive.
After successfully catching Nash, Ryan turned and pushed back.
The Suns' retreat is fast, but the choice of defensive positions is too thin.
D'Antoni probably never trained in this area.
While Ellis was already cutting in from the right, Smalls was still stupidly standing on the left staring at AK and Nene on the left.
This ball of the sun retreated lonely, completely full of loopholes.
Ryan hit the ground and passed the ball to Ellis, and he received the ball and burst straight into the air and scored with a one-handed dunk.
Nuggets tie the score!
Nash gritted his teeth, knowing full well that the team's defense was the level of the bus. The 29 teams in the league, regardless of strength or weakness, can have a good shot on the Suns.
The next round must be played offensively, which is the only countermeasure for the Suns.
You can't count on defense!
After two consecutive individual attacks were blocked, Nash knew he needed to slow down now.
He wanted to use the ball to instigate the attack, but at the moment there was no chance to feed the ball!
Because the Nuggets are resolute in defending one, Nash can't attract pinch shots and help defend today, and he can't change the opponent's defensive formation.
Naturally, there are no good feeding opportunities.
Relying on the teammates' own in-cut, after all, the opportunities are limited.
No, this round, the Suns didn't have any decent chances.
Nash couldn't get out of the ball and didn't want to take it lightly.
Time
The Suns' offense has actually stalled!
"This is the first time I've seen the Suns helpless on the offensive end! Nash had been dribbling for almost 15 seconds, but there was no progress on the offense! ”
Nash kept dribbling the ball back and forth, hoping to disrupt the Nuggets' defense.
He often does this, bursting in and then coming out in a circle, and then taking advantage of the opponent's defensive chaos to assist his teammates to score with a pass.
But the Nuggets' tactical execution ability is extremely strong, friends and wives can't be bullied, Ryan's people, and other Nuggets players are resolutely not crooked!
Throughout the defense, the Nuggets were stunned that no player left their position, and no one was attracted to Nash!
No matter how good Nash's passing ability is, it is impossible for the basketball to penetrate the opponent's body, right?
There was no way, and when there was no time to attack, Nash could only shoot backwards and jumpers.
But because the gap in athleticism and size between him and Ryan is too big, coupled with the decline in physical fitness now, even the step-back jumper is still used by Ryan.
Grab it directly!
Kevin. Harlan almost wetted his pants:
"Scratch and lean back!
I rub!?
The step-back jumper originally existed to avoid blocking, and it was not easy to cover the step-back jumper.
But Ryan grabbed the ball directly!
Ryan's defense is like a dark shadow, leaving the opponent with nowhere to run and nowhere to hide!
Steve. Nash got into a tough battle after the start of the fourth quarter! ”
Mildew didn't urinate, but he had goosebumps all over his body.
Good. It's scary.
The contrast between Ryan on the field and Ryan off the field is too great!
At this time, the mildew and mildew, and even a little heartache, the 13th who seemed to have mediocre physical fitness.
In the first three quarters, Nash still had the stamina to score in an unbalanced state.
But those goals, like I said before, most of them were also goals that grazed Ryan's fingertips.
But now, when Nash is not so outrageous in his recline height and angle due to physical reasons, not to mention basketball, he can't pass Ryan's five fingers at all!
As for Ryan, his fitness to 99 just added before he entered the playoffs was not for nothing.
The power of 99 physical fitness, Daddario has already tried it for Nash in advance.
Let's put it this way, D'Addario just gave a little excitement and Ryan could get it from the kitchen to the bedroom!
Daddario's big physique Ryan can fight to the end, so why is it difficult for Nash?
D'Antoni was suddenly a little chaotic, the Suns' attack just now was actually prevented to death, and Nash was forced to force his shot!
This has not been seen in the sun once in the past few years!
At this moment, the faces of Phoenix fans suddenly hurt a little.
Just now they were taunting Ryan on the Internet about losing DPOY, but Ryan immediately locked Nash in a row, and immediately grabbed Nash twice in a row!
After successfully catching Nash, Ryan took the ball himself to advance. When he ran outside the three-point line, the Suns were on high alert, and everyone looked at the six-way line, doing their best to prevent any player from slipping the ball.
However, there is the unexpected
Ryan was decisively chased after him outside the three-point line!
This move gave the Nuggets a direct 3-point lead!
After the goal, Ryan faced the audience and showed his confidence and majesty in a gesture of collecting his gun.
His eyes showed sincerity and perseverance, as if to convey to the audience: "Don't panic, we can win!" ”
D'Antoni cursed secretly, then stood up and yelled: "Run more aggressively without the ball!" ”
Nash can't create opportunities now, so everyone else has to create opportunities for themselves.
This time, Raja. Bale finally seized a gap and managed to get on Nash's pass after a backrun and immediately tried a jumper.
However, Monta. Ellis followed. Although he let Bell receive the basketball, he was not completely out of position.
Ellis interfered in time to block Raga Bale's shot!
Although the basketball was successful, it unfortunately didn't make it to the basket!
Marvin. Albert couldn't believe his eyes:
"Another failed score! The Suns' offense is a mess right now!
God, I've never seen the Suns struggle so much on the offensive end!
They've been scoreless for several rounds in a row, will the difference continue to be widened!? ”
D'Antoni is well aware that the Nuggets' strategy makes the Suns' offense highly tied to Nash's individual scoring.
Once Nash can't score, the Suns' offense will be bogged down and at a loss.
Indeed, in the last game, the Spurs used similar tactics to limit Nash, but Nash scored a new personal high with 48 points alone.
But that's because. The Spurs don't have the youngest DPOY in history.
Ryan's single-defense ability is something the Spurs don't have. Nash can score 48 points on the Spurs' head, but not necessarily on the Nuggets' head!
Previously, all Suns fans taunted Ryan for losing DPOY. But today's game just proves that Ryan is fully qualified to win DPOY!
With Nene protecting the defensive rebound, the Nuggets had another chance to extend their advantage.
The Suns are all on full display, and they all know very well that there is absolutely no more points to be dropped in this round!
Marion confronted Ryan directly from beyond the three-point line to prevent Ryan from pulling out.
At the same time, Laga . Bale, Dior and Smalls are also on the lookout. As soon as Ryan breaks through, they will be encircled!
After reading the Suns' defense, Ryan gave up the hard play and handed the ball to the two-knife turkey.
Then look for your chances by running off the ball!
Ryan raced around the entire half, and Marion could only grit his teeth to keep up.
Finally, after borrowing two screens, Ryan ran to the bottom corner.
The twin knife turkey passes the ball in time, and Ryan launches it immediately after receiving the ball!
But!
After all, Marion is the man who won the "almost covered Jordan Backwards Award", and his defensive range is very perverted.
When he straightens his long arms and jumps up with all his strength to block Ryan, Ryan feels as if he is really going to be offended!
I have to say that Marion is really open to defense this time, which is probably the most serious goal he has defended since joining the Suns.
At this time, the shot will be risked, and it is possible to make a mistake when changing the shot to a pass.
In desperation, Ryan retracted the basketball in the air, ready to smash it on Marion and smash it out of bounds. In this way, at least the ball is still the Nuggets'.
As a result, when Ryan hit Marion with the ball, Marion thought that Ryan was going to turn his shot into a pass in the air, so he immediately turned his head to see where the basketball was going.
But as soon as he turned his head, he felt the basketball hit his back.
And after the basketball hit Marion, it didn't go out of bounds, but bounced back into Ryan's hand, who just landed.
Looking at Marion, who temporarily turned his back to him, Ryan had a bold idea and shot directly!
By the time Marion turned back to look at Ryan, Ryan had already made a successful move.
And so people saw this magical scene: Ryan smashed Marion on the back with a ball in the air, played a hack, and then received a three-point shot from the basketball that bounced back!
This juggling three-point shot dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Suns!
Marion in particular, everyone else is stupid.
It's not that I'm defending so seriously, Ryan still has the heart to play with me!?
Is my defense so vulnerable!?
Of course, Ryan won't say that this ball is just unintentionally inserted into the willows and willows and forced to the door, why not pretend?
So Ryan turned to D'Antoni: "Mike, can you at least send someone who knows where the ball is to defend me?" ”
D'Antoni's head was throbbing, damn this Ryan was just too much of a bully!
At this point, the Nuggets have a six-point lead, and the Suns have not scored for several consecutive rounds.
The team has entered a critical moment!
This time, when Nash controlled the ball again, the Suns fans were even very bottomless in their hearts!
It's the first time they've been so worried about attacking!
As soon as Nash passed halftime, he saw Ryan as if he had a wall in front of him.
Others' running is also restricted.
The entire Sun's offense is helpless!
At this time, Marven. Albert shook his head and sighed:
"Ryan does what he says!
At the Pepsi Center. The Suns don't know how to attack! ”
In the end, Nash could only take out the Nuggets' defense in this simple and brutal way by taking out the mid-range shots after covering.
It's a pity that his shot popped up again under Ryan's interference and physical drag.
The Suns still haven't scored!
Nash's offense is a ceiling for passers, but he's not a serious top scorer after all.
Trying to get hold of Ryan after getting physical is too difficult for Nash.
Xiao Si struggled to grab the offensive rebound, but in the battle with Nenei, Xiao Si poked the basketball out of bounds with his fingertips.
Nuggets get the ball!
Once again, the Suns' offense has failed completely!
At this moment, Phoenix fans and Suns players are silent.
Their best offense is actually fighting so hard at the Pepsi Center!
Ryan, who successfully completed the defense, raised his arms at the camera and yelled:
"Now you know what the best defensive player is!
Whether I take the DPOY or not, I can still prevent you from killing! ”
Ryan's slap hit all Phoenix fans and media in the face!
Taunt me for losing DPOY? You don't have the qualifications!
Even if it is the team with the first offense in the league, Lao Tzu can hold it down!
The Suns' offense has been completely disorganized, and this is the first time that this team that is invincible in attack has been contained in the true sense of the word.
And the sun that has lost its attack is like a person who has lost his soul and is doomed to die.
So next
Ryan will let Phoenix fans know that there are not so many ifs in this world!
If there are many champions, but the real champion, there is only one!
