NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 159 New High Score
"Nowitzki hit a three-pointer again. At the end of the quarter, Nowitzki abruptly used his shots to find a chance for the Mavericks."

"Russell also made a hit. This time it was a two-pointer in a drift. It was really difficult."

"The two sides began to score points, but it's a pity that Nowitzki broke out a little later."

"Russell has already scored 40 points. Can he score 50 points in this game? It's really exciting."

"My God, Nowitzki made another three-pointer against the defense. His three-pointer came from behind and has hit the same number as Russell."

"It's unbelievable. Russell lost his balance and made a one-handed shot. It was a wonderful game."

Nowitzki is really good. He scored unreasonably in the last quarter, helping the Mavericks narrow the score gap to single digits.

It's just that Russell was always able to score next, and the time gradually passed as the two soared.

If Nowitzki had been so accurate from the beginning, the Mavericks could still compete with the Suns, but now it is difficult for Nowitzki to continue to narrow the gap between the two teams.

Russell looked at the scores and time of the two teams, and felt that he could be a little more crazy.

Since it has to be done, it must be done absolutely, so that other teams will have scruples when facing the Suns.

He signaled his teammates to give him a double screen, and then came up to block after halftime.

Russell, regardless of whether it is two or three steps away from the three-point line, directly shoots.

Nowitzki was also in an open posture at the end of the quarter, but if he was tied by the opponent with three points in this way, there may be problems with the topic of the game.

"This... the Suns are leading. Russell actually didn't need to play like this, but this is the Suns, and the offense is unparalleled."

"If other people make such a shot, it is likely to ruin the team's victory, but the son of Phoenix who led the Suns to win the first championship will definitely not. This must be the team's tactics. Coach D'Antoni looks very calm on the sidelines."

Russell wants to fight like this, D'Antoni has no choice, of course he can only calm down as a famous coach.

The Mavericks felt that Russell was provoking them.

They're angry, but they can't, really can't stop it.

Are they going to pounce on Russell after halftime? Russell promises to pass the ball to the Suns striker to hit the basket immediately.

"Can't let him continue to score." Mavericks coach Johnson roared.

He also felt that Russell disrespected them a bit. In that case, they wouldn't care about winning or losing, and just flanked them.

Hmph, it's not that easy to step on them to perform miracles.

However, it is now the last few minutes of the game, and the Mavericks soon discovered a more embarrassing thing, that is, they narrowed the score gap to single digits when Russell threw it like this. They still have a chance.

Do you want to give it a try by implementing foul tactics? If you can come back, Russell will become a laughing stock.

It's just that the Suns hold the ball for Russell, so if they foul him, don't they get points.

The Mavericks were in a dilemma, and finally tried to make a foul.

Russell made two free throws, and the Mavericks players suddenly felt bad.

They called a timeout, decided to forgo the game, and couldn't let Russell score 50 points.

But Russell now has 48 points, and if he scores another one, it will be a success.

There are dozens of seconds left, and the Mavericks' foul count is already full, so they can only pinch Russell.

But Russell played hard this time, allowing Joe Johnson to transition the ball, and when he received the ball near the three-point line, he went in and killed. He planned to make a difficult shot.

The Mavericks players definitely don't want him to shoot now. Seeing Russell staggering to the start, Terry went straight and hit him.

The referee's whistle sounded, making two free throw gestures.

Terry's face froze immediately. The situation was urgent just now, and he forgot not to foul.

Mavericks coach Johnson couldn't blame the players at this time, so he could only sigh: "It's okay, the opponent feels too good this time, it's not our fault. Besides, he might miss the penalty..."

As long as Russell misses the penalty, the next time the Mavericks attack the Mavericks, they will just delay the matter and see what Russell will do.

However, Russell is now a solid match, and he has not missed a free throw since the shot was missed.

Not to mention 100%, the [-]% hit rate is definitely no problem.

Things with a small probability did not appear. The Suns defeated the Mavericks at home in the opening game of the new season.

Russell scored 50 points or 12 assists, shining at the American West Arena.

After the game, Russell was full of spirits and proudly said: "It is expected to get a new high score. As I said, I have worked hard on offense in the summer... This season I will definitely be more aggressive than last season."

After finishing speaking, I realized that it is better for him to keep a low profile now, so he added: "Of course, it is very difficult to win this game. When Amare is resting, we can only remain competitive if we are more united. Winning is due to everyone. "

Anyway, the media has gone crazy.

Russell's offensive style has changed a lot this time. Although his assists are in double figures, he is completely focused on personal offense, and the Suns' tactics obviously have this tendency.

So Russell's summer really improved very well. The team has already changed tactics for him, but the sun kept setting off smoke bombs, and the outside world didn't notice.

By the time of the regular season, the Mavericks became the first victim, the poor Mavericks.

It must be depressing for the Mavericks to be reduced to the background board, but now that they are sympathized with, they are even more depressed.

The threat of the sun has also been raised to another level. This is an inevitable result, but Russell doesn't care much.

In fact, he still has some tricks that he has not released, but there is no need to show them for the time being. In the playoffs, he can catch opponents by surprise.

In the next game, he will not force to score, but combine organization and scoring to let the team win as many victories as possible.

The Sun's schedule at the beginning of this season is better than last season, but the second game still has to go away.

It is not far to go to Los Angeles to play against the Lakers.

Now Nora has gone abroad to work on a project, and the two separated not long ago, so Russell is purely playing games when he goes to Los Angeles this time.

The Lakers worked hard to supplement the inside line in the summer, and finally got the parallel import champion Kwame Brown.

In the era of lack of interior paint, the top pick in parallel imports is also relatively valuable. The Lakers used two starters last season to get it.

However, the biggest news of the Lakers summer is not the fifth position, but the return of Zen master Mayfair Jackson.

With the return of the famous coach, the Lakers started the triangle offense again, and Kobe didn't grab the offensive organization like last season. His task this season is to score.

After missing the playoffs last season, Bryant didn't want to keep failing.

But his teammates are not that strong. The team's second point last season, Butler and No. [-] Atkins, were exchanged for Brown, who can't attack, so Kobe can only play every game.
