NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 197
In the last 3 minutes, the Suns' defense against James became tighter, and they caught the ball and attacked.

The Suns' defensive players, one sticks to it, and the other takes care of the perimeter. There are still people inside who are ready at any time. If James can still rush in, someone will block him.

In this case, James also passed a few balls, but unfortunately the Cavaliers outside players still missed a three-pointer.

After James made a strong three-pointer, he also tried to make a shot under double-teaming, but he missed.

Russell also breathed a sigh of relief. If James returns a three-pointer like this, then there is a better cheat than him.

In the last 2 minutes, the Suns led by 3 points.

But at 1 minute and 12 seconds, James scored two points again under strict defense, and the gap between the two teams was only 1 point.

The sun is not panicking at all, the defending champion has temperament.

Then Russell missed a shot, but the Cavaliers did not get a good chance in the offense and made a mistake. Marion made a successful steal and scored directly.

With time running out, James had no chance to force his way to the basket on the perimeter, drawing a foul from Marion.

James still has more whistles at this stage, and he only got fewer whistles after the Heat.

At the critical moment, James made two free throws, and the suspense of the game returned.

Russell missed a hit in front of him, but he was still not in a hurry and controlled the time steadily.

Everyone expected him to try to run out the shot clock, so the Cavs would only have one shot left.

Unexpectedly, Russell was dribbling the ball outside the three-point line, and without warning, he took a big step in and pulled it up.

With a swipe, a three-pointer hit the net, and the Cavaliers were stunned.

Are you so willful? You dare not play cards according to common sense even though you didn't make a hit before.

Russell returned to the defense with a smile. He has this power in the Suns. He feels that he can shoot at any time if he has a chance.

After he gained an extra skill this season, his confidence is beyond description, he just dares to shoot.

Taking a step back, even if he missed the shot and caused the Suns to lose, no one would blame him.

Who made the Suns have a good record? A strong team is so self-willed, and it's useless for others to envy them.

The Suns led by 4 points, and now the Cavaliers must shoot a three-pointer.

The Suns defense was staring at the three-point line, James could only go in again for a layup, and then use foul tactics.

Russell personally made the baseline kick, and the opponent should not try to steal it at all.

After receiving the ball, Marion was fouled and stood on the free throw line, and then made two free throws to make the Cavaliers desperate again.

The Cavaliers could only grab a three-pointer this time, and the game ended after a miss.

Just a little bit again, the Cavaliers lost to the Suns again.

Russell didn't score in double figures for this assist, but the subsequent soaring points allowed him to score 40+ like James.

Ranking first in scoring and assists, this is the horror of Russell this season.

After the game, Russell also praised James' talent and deliberately provoked troubles. He regretted that the Cavaliers' lineup is not good enough, otherwise the result of the game would be hard to say.

James was definitely unable to leave when he was still a rookie, but teasing and teasing is not against the law.

The regular season is so long and the away games are so exciting, Russell always wants to have some fun.

The last game of the Suns in January was an away game against the 1ers, and then the first game in February was a back-to-back away game against the Celtics.

The 76ers' game is very simple. Iverson is absent, and the 76ers, whose strength has declined, are completely weak.

Russell clocked out of get off work in three quarters, giving the team's players who usually don't play many games a chance to play.

The team is like this, some players play a lot of games and are tired, while some players don't have many opportunities and are very idle.

However, the basic salary of the players in the league is also high in the outside world, so even if they are idle, everyone will not complain.

With the arrival of February, the sun's lengthy road trip will also come to an end.

The Celtics in the last battle are not a strong enemy.

As a giant, the Celtics are not satisfied with just marginal players in the playoffs. They also made some deals in the summer, all for the future.

Originally this season they were planning to train new players while seeking a more suitable lineup, but the results were worse than expected.

The Celtics were decisive and immediately traded the unstable factor Ricky Davis, as well as veterans at the same position who affected the growth of young players, and let Pierce play with a group of young players.

Russell found that teams like the Celtics and Lakers really have courage, and they traded when they felt that the team was not good enough, without any delay.

Not to mention players who perform poorly, even the heroes of the team will have to be traded once their strength declines.

So the Lakers dared to trade O'Neal, and the Celtics also traded Pierce later.

This is a business alliance, and there is not much human touch to talk about.

They are undoubtedly successful, and it is easier to achieve results than teams that dare not make any moves.

Russell learned from it that when the trading market should make a move, it must make a move.

Of course, he doesn't need to be so cold-blooded, there are many possibilities for the business alliance to win.

He can pick a steady stream of good rookies, so it is not difficult to make a deal that players can accept.

The current Celtics actually have a few players with decent potential, but they are still in the growth stage.

In the face of the powerful Suns, young players generally did not play well.

In the second half, Pierce could only play solo. The Suns did not pinch him, which allowed him to score high.

Of course, the Suns won the game easily, and the Celtics are not good at all this season.

At this point, the six consecutive flights are over, and Russell feels extremely happy to fly back,'

In fact, the opponents on this road trip are not particularly strong, but they are exhausted.Now that we are back at home, there will be another two days before the game will be played, and the All-Star Weekend will be ushered in a few days later. It is very refreshing to think about it.

Russell is not out of business. After the All-Star Weekend, the team will be fully preparing for the playoffs, and this season he has not forgotten to promote. After returning to Phoenix, Russell accepted a long interview with Evelyn and plans to make a long video Promote the team and mobilize the enthusiasm of fans.

Because of the rising sun, Evelyn is now also being reused.

She looked beautiful and capable in a professional attire. When she saw Russell, she congratulated him for making another All-Star start.

"Russell, you got more All-Star votes this season, and the team's record is better than last season. These are things that fans are very interested in."

Evelyn was very professional, and Russell felt at ease dealing with her, and chatted with her immediately.

In addition, other members of the team will also shoot some material, including Stoudemire, who has been gradually training with the team. This buddy is very eager to come back.

Russell did not expect the Suns to have such a good record this season, so he will set the tone this time, they just want to defend the title.

As for the regular season record, he won't care, and in the second half of the season, they can't win all the time.

However, they will not give up the first position in the West.
