Chapter 239: Violent Confrontation
At the beginning of the game, neither side made any fuss on the defensive end, but desperately attacked in an attempt to destroy the opponent with more powerful offensive firepower.
The scene was very lively, and the offensive rhythm was opened and closed, contributing a visual feast of scoring goals to the fans and audience.
The Suns' offensive firepower is still strong, and the smooth running and bombing made the Blazers completely unable to lift their heads.
Although Nash was forced by the speedist Damon Stoudemire, he could still use his extraordinary skills and superb passing to deliver ammunition for the Suns.
Richardson's performance was very eye-catching. He made several three-point shots and hit the bull's-eye with precision, which gave Randolph a headache and the Blazers' defense was torn to pieces.
Along with, Richardson's three-point turret fire support.
In the middle, the offense of Nash and Stoudemire also opened up.
Nash and Stoudemire set a pick and roll, Nash scored a goal, Stoudemire hit the 178cm tall "Little Flying Squirrel" Damon Stoudemire is an opportunity, the height mismatch is too obvious, Stoudemire can calmly CIC shot.
If the Blazers did not choose to dislocate the defense, but chose to double-team Nash, Nash would send the basketball into the sky.
Stoudemire screened an air cut to the basket, jumped up, and the catch was an alley-oop, directly blasting the basketball into the basket.
Let the Blazers' already poor defense become overwhelmed and hard to defend.
The Suns' offensive firepower is not a big problem, but the Blazers have accumulated too many forwards, and neither Joe Johnson nor Marion can play.
Anderson is a player with both offense and defense. Facing Joe Johnson, he can actually make his opponent ineffective. Joe Johnson's singles did not perform to his usual level.
Raheem's playing style is soft, and his defensive ability is actually very ordinary.However, Marion couldn't impress Raheem.
Marion has a good mid-range shooting ability, but Raheem is an expert in mid-range shooting. His defensive skills are average, but he knows how to plan Marion's shots. After a lot of hard work, I will apply what I have learned.
Moreover, Raheem's footwork is good, and it is not easy for Marion to get rid of Raheem without the ball.
Marion has no weakness in offensive ability with the ball. Under Rahim's main defense, he showed it vividly, penetrating three-pointers.
Although the Suns' offensive firepower can't play much, Marion and Joe Johnson are limited.However, relying on Richardson's sharp three-pointer, Nash and Stoudemire's unsolvable pick-and-roll cooperation, in the first quarter, the Suns still scored 29 points in a single quarter, which can't be called good, nor can it be called Oops.
However, the Blazers' offensive firepower was more violent, and they actually had the upper hand in the competition with the Suns.
It was Randolph who stole the limelight. Although he was shot through by Richardson with a three-pointer on the defense, he responded aggressively on the offensive end, showing a state of heroic bravery.
Regardless of whether it was a low-post singles or a mid-range shot, Randolph was like a godsend. He scored successively and succeeded, almost making Richardson lose his temper at all.
Moreover, Randolph's impact is full and his lethality at the basket is terrifying, which makes Richardson very helpless. He can only watch Randolph score like chopping melons and vegetables.
Of course, Randolph got a lot of good offensive space. In addition to his own physical attributes and technical characteristics, there is another point that must be mentioned.
That is, Randolph and Raheem are compatible on the court, and they are not exclusive.
The reason why the relationship between the two is emphasized is because both of them are 206cm tall.
Such a height can't be relied on for both small forwards and power forwards, and it is easy to end up in a situation of nonsense.
In other words, the legendary No. 3 position is too slow to keep up with the opponent's speed.
If you play the 4th position, you will be at a disadvantage in height and strength, and you will be easily overwhelmed.
Players under such circumstances can easily fail to achieve results and become parallel importers.
Originally, there was such a player in the starting lineup, and the defensive balance could survive. However, the Blazers followed the style of play of their forward group and actually put two dubious players on it.
You must know that there is also a 178cm Damon Stoudemire in the Trail Blazers lineup. Such a lineup arrangement is simply uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Randolph doesn't like to shoot from the outside, he likes to play in the low post and attack the inside.
On the other hand, Raheem is just the opposite. He likes to pull to the outside to make shots. His style of play is not strong enough, and he likes to float on the outside.
Under such circumstances, with Raheem evacuating the inside line and setting up fort support on the outside, the inside defense that Randolph faced was greatly reduced. Hence, there was the scene where Randolph attacked like a god.
Not to mention, Raheem's touch is also hot, and he can play against Marion's defense with ease.
Although it is a bit risky to force Marion to play singles, the Blazers can play pick and roll.
Damon Stoudemire took the ball to the frontcourt, and a pick-and-roll with Raheem was an offensive threat.
Raheem is still a player with mid-range shooting skills in his hands. He catches the ball after a screen, and facing the misplaced Nash, he hits the mid-range shot with a hundred steps, and starts to shoot frequently.
With the cooperation of Raheem, an empty power forward, Damon Stoudemire's impact is highlighted.
After the pick-and-roll, he rushed to the inside at lightning speed. Both Marion and Stoudemire could only parry, and "Little Flying Squirrel" also had the ability to shoot mid-range, even though the Suns' mobility was very strong. , was also defeated steadily.
The most terrifying thing is that this Trail Blazers team is good at playing downwind. Once it is opened, the players are as if they have been injected with chicken blood, which is very crazy.
Especially with the cheering and cheering of the home fans, the Blazers' offensive firepower is even more unstoppable.
This is an emotional team. Although the reputation is not very good, but the stormy offensive frenzy is set off, and even the Suns, who are equally violent in offensive firepower, cannot resist it.
Led by Landolan, Raheem and Damon Stoudemire's violent offensive firepower, Anderson and Ratliff, although only providing sporadic offensive firepower, still scored 36 points in the first quarter. point.
After the first quarter, the Portland Trail Blazers played a frenzied attack, temporarily leading the Phoenix Suns by 36 points 29 to 7, taking the lead.
The game started in the second quarter, and both sides had a certain rotation.
On the premise of maintaining the three main starting players, D'Antoni replaced Marion with Kaba Kappa, and replaced Joe Johnson with Lin Bai, who performed mediocrely. The tactics remained the same.
The Blazers made a bigger adjustment, leaving two starters and replacing them with sixth man Ruben Patterson, Darius Myers, who has been in good form recently, and Nick Van Exel.
As soon as the second quarter started, when the Blazers thought they could beat the Suns and crush their opponents, the Suns used more violent offensive firepower to give the Blazers a tough counterattack.
The 7-second running and bombing and diamond tactical play, playing a flowing offensive frenzy, let the Blazers appreciate for a while, what is the moving charm of the orange storm...
