NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 198 Sun All-Star Lineup

After returning home, Russell felt much less tired.

The weather in Phoenix was also warmer, and Russell also worked out indoors.

The regular season is still going on, and the Suns also ushered in the challenge of the Bulls.

The Bulls' record this season is not ideal, and they are still working hard for the top eight in the Eastern Conference.

Their operations in the summer are not bad, and it is wise to let Curry go and keep Chandler, but they don't have a star who can support them now, which hurts.

The Bulls actually want to improve their offensive ability this season, but the offense has not improved much, and the defense has failed.

It is also the price of training young players. Young teams are often unstable.

The Bulls are now letting Ben Gordon start. This sixth-man style player has almost no team awareness and no defensive awareness. The Bulls also have no talent to start him.

In fact, there is still a little expectation, after all, he is the attacker who won the third pick last year.

Ben Gordon felt good this time, and directly turned the game into a heads-up.

If he defends better, he will definitely be reused by the team. Unfortunately, he will be sent out on the defensive end as much as he scores.

In the first half, relying on Ben Gordon's fiery touch, the Bulls could still bite the score.

But in the third quarter, the Suns increased their intensity, and the Bulls collapsed.

Russell clocked out of get off work again in three quarters. As the team played more and more confidently, he finally had some easy days.

Two days later, they ushered in the Timberwolves challenge at home.

After the trade with the Celtics, Garnett realized the arrogance of Ricky Davis. After all, James always assisted him in his heart, and the Wolf King must be fine.

The highest number of shots taken by the Timberwolves has changed from Garnett to Ricky Davis. The key is that this buddy takes more shots but scores fewer points. The efficiency is pitifully low. It's really hard for Davis to be unclear.

The Jagged Wolf King also bullies and bullies honest people. When he meets Ricky Davis, he really has the idea of ​​leaving.

The Timberwolves and the Celtics are really good friends. They took over Ricky Davis and later gave Garnett to the Celtics.

Garnett is really good, defensive gate, but his salary is too high, Russell has no idea.

Famous star, unless it is Duncan, Russell is not interested in others.

In this game, Ricky Davis took crazy shots again, and his shooting percentage was the lowest among all Timberwolves players, which is completely a bad weapon.

The Suns are also willing to help this buddy, deliberately let him attack on defense, and send the Timberwolves to a sure defeat.

With Garnett's lead defense, the game did not end early.

Russell scored another 50 points when the team's substitutes were not so strong, which was cool.

Since he was able to explode from the perimeter, defensive gates like Duncan and Garnett have not threatened him so much. He has the ability to defend against the three-point line.

The time is getting closer and closer to the All-Star weekend, because the All-Star coach cannot be re-elected, so this time the head coach of the Western Conference is Popovich, the second in the Western Conference.

Russell, Kobe, McGrady, Duncan and Yao Ming are the starters in the Western Conference. Historically, the Houston All-Star Western Conference stars have given face to cooperate with McGrady, wanting him to win the All-Star MVP.

But McGrady himself was too bad, and he lost the game in the West.

Russell doesn't want to lose, but he also doesn't want to help some white horse and silver guns who like to brag.

So he contacted Yao Ming early, why didn't he give Yao Ming face in Houston.

Although the head coach is Popovich, it is not so easy to deal with, but the Suns also have three All-Stars.

Joe Johnson finally entered the All-Star as he wished, and Marion and him are both Western Conference substitutes.

It's a pity that Stoudemire has a truce, otherwise the Suns should be four All-Stars this season.

Without Stoudemire, the rest of the Suns are still a little bit worse, and their qualifications are not very good.

Originally, the Pistons had four All-Stars this season in history, but the Suns had a better record than them and did not have four, so the Pistons only scored three.

The Suns must have more than three players participating in the All-Star Weekend. Iguodala also participated in the dunk, but unfortunately he is destined to be a supporting role. This year, there is a guy who relies on his physical condition to add points, and that is the short dunk king Nate.

Because of the gimmick of height, other opponents are at a disadvantage.

Russell himself has to participate in the technical contest and the three-point contest due to the defending champion.

The Suns, as the big three-pointer, Joe Johnson also participated in the three-point contest, and Marion, as the defending champion, will participate in the mixed shooting contest.

Of course, they have the same number of participants as the main game and the rookie game. Russell, Iguodala and Martin will all participate in the second-year game.

Russell, the MVP of the rookie game, has no interest and decided to give it to his teammates.

This is not difficult for him. The strength of the freshmen this year is really average, and they are not competitive at all.

After all, there are still some days left for the All-Stars, and the Suns are still focusing on the regular season. What happened on the All-Star Weekend is just for everyone to talk about after training.

On February 2, the Suns played at home again, and it was cool at home.

Now the Suns home court has been renamed as the US Airways Center, which sounds more domineering.

This time it was the Grizzlies who came to challenge them. It is not easy for the Grizzlies to still be in the top eight in the Western Conference.

The management always likes to weaken their own deals, relying on Gasol to hold on, and as a result, the aging Damon Stoudemire was injured and reimbursed.

It was also curious that Chucky Atkins was waived so that the Grizzlies could sign it for emergency.

Now the Grizzlies really can only rely entirely on defense and Gasol. They played at a super slow pace in this game. Obviously, Gasol is the only flexible type inside, and they still like to play hard.

The Suns don't care, they can even be more ruthless. The Grizzlies only have one Gasol, so the pincers will kill them.

In fact, the Grizzlies shot four stars this season, but it is a pity that Gasol is not Howard. Their one star shot did not leave any impression on the league.

On the defensive end, the Suns aimed at the Grizzlies' three-pointers and the core player Gasol. The offensive end tried to counterattack as much as possible, almost walking the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies relied on their strong defensive ability to show that they were not far behind, that is, 10 points Left and right, but with their weak offense, the game actually has no suspense ahead of time.

Once the Suns' bench broke out again, the Grizzlies would die.

Last season, the Grizzlies' bench lineup was still an advantage. This season, the Grizzlies have no substitutes. The management likes to make the lineup weaker and weaker. Russell feels that the Grizzlies' current results are not easy.

Just looking at their words, he would think that it is not difficult to enter the playoffs in the league. I don't know why some teams fail to make it after many seasons. Maybe many teams in the commercial league are not so persistent in their records.
