NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 166 Meeting a Spur
With 38 points and 11 assists, Russell had another large double-double.

In addition to scoring less than Kobe against the Lakers, Russell's previous games were the highest scoring players of the two teams. This posture is stronger than Stoudemire's last season.

The point is, the Suns have kept winning and made the fans excited.

"Actually, we know the Pistons very well. We studied them for a long time in the finals last season. But they may not know enough about the Suns this season, so we can win."

"I said before that this is just an ordinary regular season, not a smoke bomb. You can see from the playing time of our players that we don't care about winning a certain regular season. As the defending champion, our goal is only It is to go further in the playoffs, and we will let more players participate in the regular season."

"My teammates were also very good, so I'm not surprised we won."

D'Antoni also said: "The outside world always thinks that we will be in trouble if we lack an All-Star player, but we have never thought so ourselves, and the results at the beginning also show this. Stoudemire underwent surgery He knows the team a long time ago, and we are also prepared for him not to be on the team early in the season."

"I can only say that with Russell's leadership, we will still remain competitive in the West."

After killing the Pistons, the only strong teams that the Suns have not touched are the Spurs and the Heat. From being unfavorable before the start of the season, they have once again become the public enemy of the league.

With Russell here, they won't be as useless as the defending champions like the Pistons. Everyone will remember them.

Russell has more and more fans, especially China.

Because Huaxia broadcast the Suns game live, Russell was omnipotent in scoring and assisting on the field, and the fans were soaring, and he officially became one of the most popular kings in the league.

On November 11, the Suns played against the Warriors at home and won easily.

After Russell's scoring ability becomes stronger, he is no longer afraid of Davis. This game can be said to be a slap in the face.

In fact, the Warriors have a good start record, but unfortunately the team's offense is still not stable enough.

When Davis doesn't feel good, he's just mediocre, and he has some wild shots.

But this time the Suns only started with six consecutive victories, and were beaten by the opponent when they played against the Grizzlies at home.

The Grizzlies are not bad this season. They participated in the five-team 13-man trade in the summer, sending away White Chocolate to assist the Heat, and the team did not suffer a loss when they got Eddie Jones.

The main thing is Gasol's growth. Gasol has grasped offense, organization, and rebounding this season. He has truly become an All-Star team and led the Grizzlies to the playoffs again. Unfortunately, the playoffs are still hard to find.

The Grizzlies have really changed a lot this season. Posey was also sent to the Heat, Swift was not kept, Wells was sent away, and the veteran flying mouse Stoudemire was signed at the No. [-] position.

On the whole, they worked very hard in the summer, but no matter how they looked at it, they suffered a disadvantage.

If Gasol hadn't gotten stronger, they wouldn't have had a playoff chance.

Having said that, this Grizzlies explosion really broke the Suns' winning streak.

Russell was also relatively calm after the game. The team will definitely lose in the regular season. If they lose to the Grizzlies, they will lose to the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies are lucky every time they play them, but the Grizzlies will definitely not be a threat in the playoffs, so they don't care.

Next, the Suns will play back to back, and the second game will go away.

The outside world is more concerned, not because they play back-to-back, but because they have to face the Spurs in the second game.

Before playing the Spurs, they have to play against the Jazz.

Jazz's Deron has already been put on the starting lineup, but unfortunately the team is unlucky, Boozer and Kirilenko are both injured, now they can rest assured to train new players.

Deron played well this time, but the team was still beaten by the Suns. Without two main players, the Jazz were weak.

Russell scored a double-double with ease, but it was Martin who stood out the most in this game. He scored 30+ points off the bench and established the position of the Suns as the number one scorer off the bench.

Now the team is not so good in rebounding, and it feels like there are no weaknesses in other aspects.

However, back-to-back away games against the Spurs must still be difficult, and the Suns are all ready.

As a strong team, if you want to meet another strong team, the attention of Western competitors will definitely be different.

Therefore, super strong teams generally lose to ordinary teams inadvertently, but they rarely lose when they meet real opponents.

The Suns are not yet a super team this season, but the Spurs must be more careful in doing it.

The Spurs didn't make any big moves in the summer, and the main task was to renew Parker, but they also had other gains.

For example, some veterans who want to hug their thighs, the Suns have no interest, so they are accepted by strong teams such as the Spurs.

Especially Finley, who was forced to buy out by the Mavericks, as long as he joins a strong team to wash away his shame.

As the second head of the Mavericks, he is completely unqualified, but if he joins a strong team as a supplement as a veteran, he must be very qualified. The Spurs' bench lineup this season has finally been upgraded.

It's a pity that in the original history, Finley followed the Spurs and was still fucked by the Mavericks, and he was unable to express his anger.

This also proves that Finley is indeed a negative effect in the Mavericks, which is really sad.

However, the Spurs lack offensive power, and he is more suitable for the Spurs.

The Spurs' starting lineup is the same as last year's regular season, and the fifth position was changed relative to the playoffs.

The Suns started with Varejao, and the Spurs used the taller Rasu.

But no matter who starts, Rasu and Muhammad are just tool people. At the critical moment, the Spurs Duncan goes to the fifth position to be the strongest Spurs.

There is still an offense at the critical moment, and it is impossible to put two non-attacking tool men on the field.

Both sides attach great importance to the game, and the Spurs played very tough at the beginning.

The sun is back to back, and they have come to their territory. If you don't do it, you can't explain it to the sun.

It's just that the Spurs seem to have a lot of routines, and the game is dominated by GDP. It's either Parker and Duncan playing duo, or Ginobili holding the ball. The Suns are already familiar with it.

The strongest defense of the Spurs is Duncan's defense. Marion can't get into it at all, and the offensive end is half weak.

But if Parker comes to fight Russell again, Russell will teach him to be a good man.

Russell wasn't afraid of Parker, a guy who didn't dare to pull out from outside the three-point line.

Now that he can teach the other party a lesson in turn, the advantage in his heart is even greater.

The Spurs pitched better and took the lead in attacking. Parker was about to hit Russell, but Russell blocked him.

Does it prevent breakthroughs and then interfere with the opponent's small mid-range shot, Russell Menclear.

But in turn, Russell pulled out directly when he was under cover, and Parker could only be anxious.

With Parker's small wingspan, there is not much to do against Russell's strong style of play. Of the three GDP players, the French sports car is the most mediocre, and the defensive end is also the master of being bullied.

Russell couldn't bully him last season, and this season is going to fuck him.

The Suns started stronger than them, and the Spurs' hearts sank.
