"Shh!"
With an additional penalty hit, the Suns lead 3-0.
Mavericks attack.
Nowitzki mentioned that the left three-pointer received the ball at a 45-degree angle, and Artest cut in without the ball. After receiving the pass, Artest took two hard steps, trying to rely on his body to eat Hill.
Hill was carried away in the air, Artest also confiscated the core and missed the layup.
The home fans cheered again. For the Mavericks players, every cheer seemed to put pressure on them.
Hill took the defensive rebound and handed it to Nash. Artest didn't make a goal, but he was very active in defense. He took the initiative to lead Nash to prevent him from speeding up.
After halftime, the Mavericks switched defenses and returned, allowing Kidd to defend Nash again.
Nash changed direction at the top of the arc and did not shake Kidd away.
Stoudemire came up to cover, Nowitzki delayed Nash's breakthrough time, and Kidd took the opportunity to switch back.
There were 14 seconds left in the attacking time of the round, and Nash didn't hesitate anymore. As an excellent court commander, he would never waste time until the last few seconds to handle the ball.
That would be too passive.
Nash accelerated on the right and forced Kidd. Due to the limited space, Nash did not increase his speed. Kidd followed Nash tightly. When Nash took the second step, Kidd secretly pushed Nash.
Kidd is very experienced, and the action of exerting force is very subtle, and referees generally don't blow it.
Nash and Kidd are very different in strength, and there is no room for a layup after losing balance in the air.
Fortunately, Nash's vision is invincible. He grabbed the ball with both hands and put it behind his head. When he was about to pass the line, he flicked the ball vigorously and moved it out of the three-point line.
After receiving the ball, Grant Hill was not in a hurry to make a shot. He aimed at the frame and opened Ray Allen, then killed the inside and glided for a layup, which was very steady.
5:0.
Kidd continued to take his time with the ball across half court.
Rick Carlisle let the players play at a steady pace, don't worry, he is not worried about the Mavericks' offensive misfiring, they have a lot of firepower.
Kidd and Nowitzki played hand-to-hand, and Nowitzki held the ball in a high-position three-threat.
Artest continued to cut inside. In the Mavericks lineup, he didn't have many opportunities to attack with the ball. Nowitzki and Ray Allen were ahead of them.
Artest himself is willing to do the dirty work, let him play with the ball, and let him be a defensive blue-collar, he can accept it. As early as the beginning of the season when he first joined the Mavericks, he knew his team position.
The sun's defense appeared to be loose, Hill and Diaw's attention was on Nowitzki, and Artest was missed.
Stoudemire in the penalty area had to fill in the holes of his teammates, otherwise Artest under the basket would be completely empty.
At this time, Antoine White in the bottom corner on the other side had an open opportunity, and Nash withdrew back to block Antoine White.
Nash's poor defense is mainly due to physical fitness, his attitude and awareness are still online.
At this time, a magical scene appeared. All the defensive players of the Suns were huddled within the free throw line, and Kidd had a five-meter gap on the outside.
Kidd flicked his wrist slightly after receiving Antoine White's point, and shot calmly.
Chinese fans gave Kidd a nickname of "Basic not attacking", but it does not mean that Kidd has no offensive ability at all.
Although the outside shooting rate is really bad, Kidd is also an NBA star-level point guard after all, and this kind of shooting opportunity that is larger than the training space is still reasonable.
5:3.
"The Suns' defense was compressed too much, which gave the Mavericks a chance to shoot from the outside," Kenny Smith said.
"The opponents in the last round, the Jazz, they can defend like this, but they can't play against the Mavericks. This team has many three-point shooters. Dirk Nowitzki, Ray Allen, Artest, including Kidd just now, all have certain shooting ability. ’” Barkley said.
After Kidd hit a three-pointer, the Suns quickly sent the bottom line.
"Retreat! Retreat!" Rick Carlisle shouted from the sidelines.
The Mavericks sent a small lineup to prevent the Suns from going down quickly. If they can't prevent it, it's meaningless to use such a lineup. It's better to let Dampier play and grab a few more rebounds.
The sun continued to set.
The Mavericks' positional offense is very cumbersome, but the Suns are much simpler.
Chen Yan walked around the baseline. On the way, Dior helped Chen Yan hang up the defender. Nowitzki immediately switched to make up for it, and then Chen Yan moved to the right corner to catch the ball.
This is a single challenge technique designed by D'Antoni for Chen Yan, which not only allows Chen Yan to easily get 1v1 opportunities, but also has a high probability of misplacement.
Chen Yan took a step out with his right foot and then paused, then immediately kicked off the ball and started!
The moment it started, Kidd came over from the upper line.
The Mavericks have a thorough study of the Suns' tactics, so they won't let Chen Yan easily single out.
The Suns got some chances to play more and less. After Chen Yan quickly received the ball, he flicked his hands inside, and Stoudemire caught the ball and attacked the frame!
Antoine - White was forced to foul, Stoudemire stood at the free throw line and made two free throws.
Chen Yan and Stoudemire retreated to the defensive half after high-fiving. Stoudemire's touch seemed to be warming up tonight.
The Mavericks attack, Nuo Tianwang catches the ball from the outside, and Dior is directly close to the body, leaving no room for shooting.
Nowitzki's first step is not fast. Diaw doesn't have to worry about being passed by. Even if he is passed by other players, he can make up for it. The bigger threat than breaking through Nowitzki lies in his shooting.
Nuo Tianwang raised the ball over his head, swung the ball in a semicircle and then went to the right.
Grant Hill clipped directly.
The sun is very decisive for the interference of Nowitzki's pinch and the line of the ball!
Nuo Tianwang is the absolute core of the Mavericks' offense, and compared to scoring, Nuo Tianwang's vision and passing are very average. In each game, he can only send about 2 assists in the case of a large number of double-teams, which is enough to prove this point.
Nowitzki doesn't need to pass and penetrate the ball, and wide-range transfer is not his strong point. It is difficult for him to deliver shells for his teammates. From a certain perspective, double-teaming Nowitzki is much more cost-effective than double-teaming Chen Yan.
Nowitzki suddenly received the ball after taking a dribble, and leaned back against the defense of the two!
Nowitzki has a good strong shooting ability, but it doesn't mean that his shooting percentage is free from defensive interference.
"Bang!"
The basketball pops out of the box!
The rebound was accepted by Stoudemire, and the Suns continued to fight positionally. They played the same tactics as in the previous round.
Just as Chen Yan went around the bottom corner to catch the ball, the Mavericks' double-team came up again.
Chen Yan immediately turned sideways to receive the ball, and made a move to pass the ball.
Kidd didn't dare to pack his pockets too tightly this time, he was afraid of Chen Yan's pass.
The next second, Chen Yan suddenly retracted the ball to his chest again, then turned over and shot a jumper!
"Shh!"
After deceiving two defensive players with a fake move, he made a smart hit!
7:3.
Through these two rounds, Chen Yan understood that the Mavericks planned to carry out the double-teaming tactic to the end, and that he had to withdraw to a further position if he wanted to catch the ball comfortably.
With an additional penalty hit, the Suns lead 3-0.
