Chapter 147: Chapter 149

149: Be worthy of the name

The 2004 spectators completely filled the center of the air corridor. For the Phoenix Suns, there can only be one result of this game, and that is victory.In addition to victory, the Phoenix people absolutely do not allow failure, because failure represents the complete end of the 2005-[-] season of the Phoenix Suns.

Among the 30 teams in the league, there is only one team that can end a season with a victory, and that is the championship.Fans of the Suns don't necessarily want the team to win the championship, but they don't want to be eliminated by a team that was not optimistic about the whole league before the season in the second round of the damn playoffs.Before the start of this season, everyone gloated over the disintegration of the former three-peat Zijin dynasty.But an opponent who was ridiculed by him is about to eliminate him. Such a contrast is unacceptable to all Phoenix fans.

From the first second of the game, the boos on the scene never stopped.As soon as a Lakers player touches the ball, there will be boos immediately.Qin Tao has long been used to this level of booing, and the Lakers players are also used to it.But it can be seen from the boos and cheers switching back and forth on the scene that today's game was not easy.

After the game started, Stoudemire won the jump ball, and Nash first played the fastest rhythm after holding the ball.Brown-Shaw was puzzled, but he didn't talk much.Facts have proved that Qin Tao's guess is completely correct.The Suns played a fast break with a fast pace, and then in every attack they had, as long as the fast break opportunity was not particularly good, they usually handed the ball to Stoudemire after the battle.

Don Anthony's brows were tightly frowned. Before the game, he thought he would hit his opponent with a rubbish.What he wants is to make opponents completely unexpected. Who would have thought that the Phoenix people, who are famous all over the world for their small ball offense, would abandon their best and turn to the inside?The imaginary scene of the Lakers in a hurry did not appear. What appeared in Don Anthony's sight was the well-organized interior defense of the Los Angeles Lakers.Kwame Brown's follow-up defense and Chris Webber's timely double-team, no one thought that the two teams would first start a fierce competition in the interior.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

It was the sound of muscle pounding, as Stoudemire shoulder-bumped Kwame Brown against him.Brown's defense makes Stoudemire uncomfortable, but Stoudemire's explosive power is definitely at the top of the league's inside line, which is higher than Kwame Brown.Turned around suddenly again, using explosive power to forcibly wipe into the wiper board under the basket.

13 to 19, the Suns temporarily lead by 6 points.Among the first 19 points of the Phoenix people, Stoudemire scored 9 points alone, and almost every score of the Suns was related to him.Obviously, Stoudemire is the core of the Suns today.

"It never occurred to me that the Suns would choose Stoudemire as the core today."

"Perhaps this is because Don Anthony wants to catch him by surprise!"

"But do you think Los Angeles looks unprepared? They obviously had similar training and tactical arrangements before the game."

"This is very weird. Did Los Angeles know that Phoenix would use Lamarre as the core to play inside before the start of the game? This is too fake! Could it be that after the ancient Chinese tactics, there are also stadium spies?"

"Could it be that the Chinese boy in Los Angeles really has the ability of a prophet?"

"..."

The two commentators talked in the studio about the strange event that the Lakers were fully prepared for the change of the Suns. The audience on the scene did not hesitate to cheer and boo, middle finger, and slobber to the visiting team.As for the old man sitting on the coach's bench of the home team, he kept frowning tightly. 'How did he know that I had Lamarre in the lead?This is obviously prepared! 'Don Anthony couldn't understand why the Lakers would make arrangements in advance.He cast doubtful eyes on the assistant beside him, and then he shook his head firmly.In the NBA, there may be referees manipulating the game, but there is absolutely no coach who tells the opponent his team's tactics.That is match-fixing. The league is very, very disgusted with such things as match-fixing. It is completely unimaginable what the consequences will be if this kind of thing is exposed.

And what about Qin Tao?He sat on the visiting team coach's bench with his legs crossed, watching the game very leisurely.Now this situation is what he wants most. The person with the most beautiful statistics on the court is Lamarre Stoudemire, known as the bully, with 11 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.The first quarter of the game only played 7 minutes, such statistics are perfect, but Qin Tao is not worried at all that the Lakers can't restrict him inside.Because the busiest person on the field is also the Suns center with very good statistics.Stoudemire has always been under great pressure inside, and today he is playing the core of the team, so his physical exertion will be immeasurable.Qin Tao believed that with his physical fitness, he would not be able to play the whole game. Anyway, at most the second half, Don Anthony would have to change back.If the Suns really dare to keep playing like this, Qin Tao will be very happy, because he has already started to prepare the defensive tactics inside.All teams playing against the Spurs must limit their core -- Tim Duncan, and it's okay to practice with Stoudemire now.

Looking at Qin Tao's dangling Erlang legs, Tang Antoni felt a pang of anger in his heart. 'That Chinese actually underestimated me? 'If it wasn't for the issue of identity, Don Anthony really wanted to go up and slap that Chinese.In fact, every time he saw the Chinese sitting on the sidelines with his legs crossed in a leisurely way through the video, Tang Antoni had an urge to rush up and beat him.

Don Anthony gritted his teeth at Qin Tao, but the situation on the court suddenly changed.After playing at high intensity for 8 minutes in a row, even Stoudemire, who is known as the bully, felt a little lack of stamina.Kwame Brown, who was eaten several times in a row, took the opportunity to pretend to be swayed by him, and gave him a strong big hat behind him.

"Kwame Brown, who was eaten again and again, finally found his place again, and he gave Stoudemire a big hat." The commentator doubled his voice excitedly.I am afraid that many people know what kind of team the Lakers are. As long as they are given a chance to counterattack, they will be able to hit a wave of climax. What will happen this time?
The basketball nailed to the backboard by Kwame Brown was accepted by him. The moment he completed the block, the other four Lakers players had all started running to the frontcourt.This is the perfect opportunity to fight back!

Brown turns and throws the ball, and Caron Butler catches it easily.Shaking from side to side, he passed the basketball to Bryant, who slid past him.Peter Pan slapped the basketball and forcibly jumped, and his strong ability to stay in the air made him draw a straight line in the air. "Bang!" The basket was buckled by him and bent down, and the rack swinging back and forth told the pain he had suffered.The fans at the scene also thought of the sparse applause because of this dunk. Although it was quickly covered up by boos, it showed the excitement of this dunk.

The momentum of the Los Angeles Lakers was completely inspired by this dunk, and Derek Fisher finally opened first on the outside.Then came Butler, who originally had no data other than 4 assists and 1 turnover after the opening game. This time, he also hit a jumper after the Suns double-teamed Kwame Brown.And what about Kobe?His performance was the same as any time before, and his strength made all opponents desperate.He scored 4 points in a row on the offensive end, and the Lakers played a wave of 9-3 attacks, reversing the situation in one fell swoop.

Don Anthony had no choice but to call a timeout. Before the game, he always thought that the main insider would definitely beat the Lakers at the beginning of the game. How could he know that the opponent was already prepared.He has always dismissed Qin Tao's titles of "God's Left Hand" and "Prophet". He always thought that these things were just boasted by the media, but at this moment he seemed to have seen the horror of "Prophet".Through this timeout, he replaced Stoudemire who was very active in the first quarter.Nash didn't run much in the first quarter, and his physical exertion was very little. He could continue to play, and Don Anthony didn't plan to replace both core players to rest at the same time in this game.

After Stoudemire's rest, Qin Tao also directly tore down the two insiders. He replaced Wharton and Odom to play real running and bombing.You have Steve and I have Kobe.The Canadian dominated the game with assists and rhythm control, while Peter Pan controlled everything through his scoring.Which is the stronger way to dominate the game?This can only speak with facts.

Stoudemire hasn't played since he was replaced in the first quarter until Nash was replaced, and Nash was not replaced until the 8th minute of the second quarter.In other words, today's Suns play single-core most of the time, relying entirely on a "run" to play the game.And what about the Lakers?They also run with the sun, and while the Lakers don't have the same tempo-controlling metronome as the Canadiens, they have a sword that can kill any opponent on its own.

Since Stoudemire was replaced and the two teams began to attack desperately, the excitement of the game has increased geometrically. The halftime score of 66 to 68 can explain everything, and the never-ending exclamations of the audience and the excited shouts of the commentators can also reflect the excitement of the game.

The beeping of the timer reminded everyone that the first half of the game is over, and the fans can go to the bathroom or have a drink to relieve the fatigue of the first half cheering.As for the players on both sides of the war, they can go back to the locker room to take a rest, but this period of intermission is the time for the coaches of the two teams to battle wits.Of course, Tang Antoni was the only one racking his brains, Qin Tao didn't need it at all.

'In the second half, I want to see if your name of prophet is worthy of the name. Tang Antoni looked at Qin Tao with a relaxed face and felt ruthless in his heart.
