(Please recommend! Please collect!)
The Phoenix Suns' substitutes did not rest for 2 minutes, and they were all replaced.

On the side of the Hornets, Byron Scott is relatively bolder.He was not in a hurry to replace all the main players, but only brought up the main center Hilton.The rest of the bench lineup is unchanged.Byron wants to respond to all changes with the same.

If you want to make an evaluation of Byron Scott, the head coach of the Hornets at this time-to paraphrase a sentence from Master Xing's "The Secret Detective 00": It's so elusive! ! !As for the question of basketball IQ, everyone has already had a consensus.

Practice has also proved Byron Scott correct.Even if the Hornets are all on the bench.However, they did not experience the rout that people imagined.On the contrary, the Hornets' bench was very tenacious withstood the fierce offensive of the Phoenix Suns in the first half of the second quarter.In the opening 4 minutes of the second quarter, the Hornets relied on the bench to overtake the score by 5 points.

However, the cost-effectiveness of the money spent is definitely not the same.Inferior products may burst out with destructive energy instantly due to short circuit, but, after all, it cannot last.

The Phoenix Suns really can't stand their majestic third in the West, and they will be bullied by you as a big substitute.Nash immediately led the team to counterattack with a wave of 12 to 3.

After Byron Scott saw that the energy of the Hornets' bench was exhausted, he decisively called a timeout.With a wave of his hand, the main force of the Hornets came on the field, but Jack was still on the field.

Fans who are familiar with the Hornets team, now you will find that Byron has a rule of employing people: since Jack broke out, Jack has been reused. Generally, Jack’s playing time is two quarters, and sometimes more. .Moreover, they usually play in the second quarter, leading the Hornets' bench to play.And in the fourth quarter Byron usually keeps Jack on the court.

After the main players of the Hornets came up, the Phoenix Suns obviously did not have the madness just now. This mainly depends on the protection of the Hornets under the basket and the timely retreat of the defense.In the second half of the second quarter, the two sides had a big battle of points. You come and go, you one ball and one ball, neither side will let the other.Until the end of halftime, the scores of the two sides still could not be opened.

However, the scores of the two sides were surprisingly high, and their scores came to 60 to 62 after halftime.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the two sides are still fighting for points.However, what is different this time is that the Hornets' points were pulled away step by step.The Hornets have been pulled into their rhythm by the Suns, and when it comes to offense, which team in the league can pat itself on the chest this year and guarantee that they can match the Phoenix Suns.

The Hornets stopped their offense for a short period of time, and the Phoenix Suns seized the opportunity to break fast and convert the Hornets' mistakes into points.

Byron realized something was wrong, and quickly called a time-out adjustment.Byron's vision was very vicious, and he immediately changed into a defensive lineup. He realized that if he competed with the Phoenix Suns to get more points, it would be tantamount to seeking his own death.

In this way, after the second quarter, Jack got another chance to play.

Byron Scott's on-the-spot scheduling ability is very good. After this adjustment, the Hornets strengthened the link of rebound protection.Speeding up the speed of retreating, if the Phoenix Suns' fast break is not successful, then their configuration of one big and four small will become their shortcoming on the contrary.

Defense and rebounding are Jack's strengths, based on the capital of the league.Of course Jack can do very well. So far, Jack has scored 10 rebounds, including 3 offensive rebounds.Also gave the Phoenix Suns level 2 hot pot.At the same time, he also scored 6 points, all of which came from the constant bombardment of the Hornets' basket.

Nash, the coach on the field, is really not a cover. Realizing that the fast break is not going to work, he immediately changed his tactics.Use your own breakthroughs to revitalize the team and create shooting opportunities for golfers.The players of the Phoenix Suns were also very competitive, and they made all the shots that should be made.

Paul's ability to organize offense is also AA-level. Under Paul's organization, the Hornets' offense is also very smooth.

The game this one morphed into a showdown between two point guards, one assist, and I'll pay back right away.The Phoenix Suns and New Orleans Hornets are playing around the two shooting guards.

However, Jack is tragic.Although Jack got enough playing time, in the first three quarters of this game, he completely became a blue-collar insider, stuck in position and grabbed rebounds.There is no chance of taking the initiative to attack with the ball, and Jack's depression can be imagined.

This situation of Jack is mainly related to the defensive strategy of the Phoenix Suns.Their main strategy is to squeeze Jack out of the paint and keep Jack out of the basket.If Jack stays away from the basket, his unique skill of "plucking onions on dry land" is of no use at all.

It seems that the Phoenix Suns had a good study on Jack before the game, otherwise it would be impossible to have such an understanding of Jack's characteristics.

However, even if it is like this, Jack still can't hide Jack's contribution in defense, with 15 rebounds and 3 blocks.That's why Byron Scott kept him on the court.

The game went on until the end with 50 seconds left, the two sides battled to 100 to 99, and the Hornets led by one point.Moreover, the Phoenix Suns Suns also have the ball.The situation is very unfavorable for the Hornets.

Nash dribbles around the perimeter looking for opportunities to attack.This time Nash was not in a hurry to attack, because the time still had 50 seconds, Nash was not in a hurry, he had enough time as long as he scored this ball.

The Hornets' defense was very strong. Seeing that there was no chance, Nash called Stoudemire in the paint to come out for a pick-and-roll.Relying on Stoudemire's high-quality pick-and-roll, Nash got rid of Paul's entanglement, dribbled the ball with his left hand and only killed the basket.

When Nash broke through the Hornets' defenders, they didn't dare to go up to help defend, because Nash's pass was more lethal than his breakthrough.After seeing the situation clearly, Nash still hit the Hornets' basket without hesitation.

Jack, who was at the basket, immediately came over to defend, and Jack misplaced to defend Nash.Even though Jack had an 80-point defense, Nash still didn't dare to slack off in his defense. He almost tensed up every nerve in his body, and his eyes were fixed on the basketball in Nash's hands.I was afraid that I would accidentally be shot by Nash.Or he passed the ball successfully.

Nash is the top guard in the league, and passing is still Nash's forte.Known as a passing master, Jack didn't dare to be careless.
