NBA Absolute Flood Dam

Chapter 396 Once the League's No. [-] Power Forward

The Suns, who have won five consecutive victories, are currently ranked first in the Western Conference, and also first in the league, with great momentum.

On the other hand, the Kings lost to the Mavericks, Spurs, and Mosaics in the beginning, and then won the Raptors, but lost to the Supersonics in the game. This time they met the Suns, and they definitely did not want to lose again.

"Mr. Zhang, the Kings were very strong last season and ranked third in the Western Conference. Who do you think is stronger this season, the Suns or the Kings?" Yu Jia asked during the live broadcast on CCTV.

"The king is a typical Prince tactics. He pays attention to people's movement and ball movement. He uses the big to fight the small, the strong to fight the weak, and the smart to fight the strong. The offense is extremely gorgeous and the offensive power is very strong. In the 99-00 season, he ranked first in the league in scoring. Although the level of the team has declined in the past two years, its book strength is still very strong this season. To defend such a Kings team, you must rely on zone defense. They run too many positions, pass and cut, and run back. Man-to-man is not good at all .”

Zhang Reasonable said.

Suns starters: Li Ba, Marion, Battier, Joe Johnson, Marbury.

Kings starters: Brad Miller, Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic, Doug Christie, Mike Bibby.

Battier started this game because Posey suffered a minor injury during training and temporarily went to the bench.

"Prince's tactics pay attention to five players who can pass and shoot, but the basis is inside passing, which is the so-called point center. Webber, he is the offensive axis of Rick Adelman's Kings team." Yu Jiajie Said.

"The Suns are in the same district as the Kings. Last season, the Suns did not have a good record against the Kings. Three losses and one win. This game is very important. The Suns have just established a defensive system. A team with strong offensive power like the Kings can just test it." Zhang Zhang reasonable way.

"Hey Chris."

"Hey, Hammer."

At the entrance of the passage, Li Ba greeted Weber.

Webber, Michigan Fab Five, No. 93 pick in 03, king soul player, he was the best power forward before the injury operation in 12, with comprehensive power forward skills, a real superstar, it is now his 32th season, although he is [-] years old Yes, there are also injuries (center killer, knee injury), but it is still a superstar performance.It's a pity that his peak period has passed, and due to injuries, his achievements have not reached the height he should have been.

He made a fatal choice mistake, that is, in the competition with O'Neal, he gave up his own style and chose to gain weight, which eventually caused a knee injury.

"Chris, I heard you're leaving the king?"

Li Ba pulled Wei Bo aside and asked in a low voice.

He learned some news from the management. In fact, Weber is also one of Colangelo's targets, but the King rejected the deal proposed by the Suns during the offseason.

"Hammer, who did you listen to?" Weber asked anxiously, his expression fixed.

"Heh, the Suns want to trade you, but your general manager said he would not keep you in the West, do you understand what that means?" Li Ba said.

"Shet!"

Cursing secretly, Weber looked back at Peja, feeling very upset.

Now his status in the team is declining, and Peja is obviously rising, so Peja can only replace him.

In fact, he has been very embarrassing in the past two seasons. When he was injured, Peja led the team with a better record. When he came back, the team's record dropped sharply.

"If you want to win the championship, come to the sun by yourself." Patting Weber on the shoulder, Li Ba laughed.

"Are you so confident?" Weber said angrily.

"Of course." Li Ba smiled triumphantly.

"I can still fight." Shaking his head, Weber said.

Li Ba shook his head and said, "If you can fight, how long can you fight?" After speaking, he left.

Weber opened his mouth, but shook his head unwillingly.

If he just hugs his thighs like this, even if he wins the championship, his career evaluation will only drop because of a ring, and there will be no improvement. And if he wants to enter the Hall of Fame, his achievements are not enough. By one's own ability.

Before the start of the game, in front of the Suns bench, Frank finally said to Li Ba: "Hammer, you need to attack more this time, don't forget."

Li Ba nodded.

Playing against the Kings, he had 3 losses and 1 win last season. Frank's tactical thinking in this game is to use his advantage at the basket to attract the Kings' double-teams on the offensive end, and then let the outside line get open opportunities.

Of course, this does not mean that his role on the defensive end will be weakened, that is still the most important job.

At the beginning of the game, Li Ba beat Brad Miller with a jump ball, and the Suns attacked.

Li Ba landed and quickly ran to the basket.

Miller, who turned around, gave a pull, and then Webber, with his rich experience, took a step laterally to block it, which made Li Ba's quick attack to the basket fail.

At the basket, Li Ba went directly to this position, and Brad Miller faced him.

Miller, this is an insider who started with strong defense in the early days.

In the 0102 season, O'Neill punched Miller on the court, but this time he took the initiative to make a move, and he failed to win. Instead, Miller got the title of villain.

However, Miller is limited by his inferior quality, lacks enough jumping and explosive power, and moves slowly.

Now it is the king, who is close to 30 years old, and his defensive state has declined, and his deterrence against powerful insiders is slightly equal to zero.

Li Ba first took two steps below the basket, then suddenly leaned on Miller, wrapped his arms around him, and stuck him firmly behind him.

Seeing that Miller was stuck, Webb, who was in the low post on the right, immediately came over to help defend.

At this time Marbury's pass came.

Li Ba leaned hard against Miller behind him, then leaped half a step forward to catch the ball, turned around immediately when he landed, jumped up again, held the ball in both hands, and smashed the basket hard.

Miller was leaned on, his movement was slow, and he failed to defend.

Webber jumped off the side to block the block just in time.

"Snapped!"

He slapped Li Ba on the right wrist.

"boom!"

The next moment, the basket trembled violently, and the basket sank steeply.

"Di!"

The whistle sounded.

"what!!!!!"

Huge cheers erupted in the American West Arena.

This is the second home game of the season, five consecutive victories, and all of them are big-score victories, which makes the Suns fans full of expectations for this season, and the applause and cheers are particularly intense.

"Oh, a super heavy dunk of two plus one, the hammer smashed into the basket..." The roar of the Suns' on-site commentator quickly sounded.

At this time, the referee came over to signal that Weber had fouled the thug, and Li Ba made an extra free throw.

"boom!"

He hit the basket with a free throw.

0:3, the Suns lead.

The king attacks.

Weber is in the low position on the left wing, Peja is at 45 degrees on the left wing, and Bibby is at the top of the arc, which is the strong side.

On the right wing on the weak side, center Miller has mentioned two steps inside the right-wing three-point line, and shooting guard Doug Christie is around forty degrees from the three-point line.

Of course Li Ba would not defend Miller. He and Marion switched defenses to face Webber.

"The former No. [-] power forward in the league, ask for the ball, and I'll let you single out me!" Li Ba challenged behind Weber.

"Damn 'once'." Weber said angrily in his heart.
