NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 341
"Russell! Russell hit a three-pointer again. The Cavaliers need someone to stand up."

"The Cavaliers put on a small lineup. They hope that the shooter can help the team. It's just this obvious strategy. The Suns' defense will not relax."

"Gibson didn't hit...Damon Jones didn't hit either..."

"At the critical moment, James has to make the shot himself. If he can't make the shot, he will never be as threatening with the ball as Russell. Russell will not be soft at critical moments."

"Unfortunately, James missed a hit. It seems that the Cavaliers will have to confess in this game."

"James chose to go in for a layup at this time. No one in the Suns cares about him, because the Cavaliers have no time. I don't know what James thinks about it. Is it just for the data to look better?"

"The game is over. The Cavaliers once again wasted a good start and lost to the Suns."

For the Suns, this was just one of many regular-season victories.

But for the Cavaliers, they once again had doubts about their own strength.

It is very painful for a team with ambitions but not enough strength. They will look forward to and look forward to it in the summer, but in the regular season, they will feel the cruelty of reality.

When it comes to the playoffs, they are generally desperate, because they really can't win.

Such a team may make some hasty decisions in the middle of the season.

It wasn't that I decided that it was suitable, and if it was suitable, I would act in the summer, but I felt that there was no other way, and if I didn't change the team, I couldn't survive.

For the Suns, except for the first season, they don't need to struggle in the middle of the season.

They just need to run the lineup step by step and make the young players stronger, so that they can use a better attitude to meet the playoffs.

The Sun's Eastern Conference game continues, but the next Bulls will have no difficulty.

The Bulls are not strong this season, and Ben Gordon and Luol Deng are both injured and sidelined. The current Bulls have no offensive power.

So they can only try their best to defend, but when they encounter a top offensive team like the Suns, it is impossible for them to solve the problem just by defending, so it is easier for the Suns to win.

Tired playing but easy to win is the portrayal of this game. It's not that the Bulls didn't work hard, but they really couldn't score, resulting in no possibility of winning.

The way the Bulls are now, there is no need to keep Wallace, whether he declines or not.

Of course, Daben's strength has declined, and they have better choices. The young Noah is much more comprehensive than Daben and is worth cultivating.

The Suns returned to home two days later and beat the visiting Eagles to the ground.

Nash's state was very average this time, and he did not lead the team and the Suns to soar.

The Eagles have also reached the bottleneck now, and their record is neither good nor bad.

After all, they can't do both offense and defense like the Suns, and Nash's weak links have also been exposed.

They won't have a problem in the playoffs now.It's just hard to go any further.

I don't know what the Eagles management will think now, whether they will choose to trade and rebuild while Nash's contract is still more valuable.

Of course, even so, they won't do anything this season, so they are destined to be supporting roles.

A relatively pure point guard can improve the lower limit of a team, but to go further requires the cooperation of other All-Star players. The Eagles can now get some stronger forwards or inside players, and the situation may be much better.

But as Nash ages, it's too late for them to do nothing.

At the end of the month, the Suns played against the Spurs again at home.

Their duel still attracted a lot of attention, but it has nothing to do with the Western Conference rankings.

Because of Parker's absence, the Spurs have dropped out of the top four in the West.

A lot of teams didn't have a good start record, but they are still so stable until now, and only a few teams can do it. The Spurs originally only had GDP, and if there is one less, they will certainly fall behind.

Now they have to let Ginobili start first. Without this level of player partner, it will be difficult for Duncan to play his full strength.

However, Parker's absence will not delay the Spurs' defense, and the Suns still have to face the league's top defense.

The Spurs, Celtics, and Pistons still rely on defense this season. The difference is that the Celtics are stronger offensively, so their records are also different.

After the start of the game, the Spurs did not play well, and Manu Ginobili, who started the game, felt a bit pitted.

Ginobili is always swinging between the pit and the super god, and he feels very little when he is ordinary.

When he doesn't play, the Suns only need to pinch Duncan, and the defense is easy to solve.

The Spurs can also defend, Ray Allen and Stoudemire are restricted, but in this rhythm system, Russell and Durant are a bit puzzled.

Their shooting percentage is not very high, but they can score, making the Suns suddenly the dominant side.

It's just that defense is useless, and this principle can also be applied to the Spurs.

When it came to the rotation period, the Suns also attacked better. Duncan was a bit strong in the second quarter and couldn't change the situation.

The good news is that they're not far behind, it's just that the good news doesn't cheer them up.

Facing such a Spurs, there is actually nothing to say, just flank Duncan.

Although Parker didn't feel very useful playing the Suns before, the Spurs were greatly affected without him.

But with the X factor of Ginobili, I don't know how the game will go.

In the third quarter, Ginobili started hitting some pixie shots again.

Anyway, when the Spurs are about to threaten the Suns, he will strike iron, and when the Suns are about to completely kill the Spurs, he will be magical again.

On the sidelines, the Spurs coach Popovich had a toothache and didn't know whether to scold or encourage.

Only Duncan has been very stable, seized a few shots, and protected rebounds very well.

Very good player, but the offense is still a bit weak, although it is enough in this era.

To be honest, if the Spurs hadn't been in GDP for so many years, but instead found a stronger All-Star player to partner with Duncan, they might also be able to win three consecutive championships. The shortcomings of Parker and Ginobili are still too obvious.

The Spurs were stable but not aggressive enough, and Gino Belgium was good and bad, so the Suns have maintained a 5-10 point lead under the leadership of Russell.

In the last 5 minutes, Ginobili and Finley started to bet on three-pointers. Unfortunately, the accuracy of the two was still a bit poor. However, Finley's last-minute three-pointer still helped the Spurs win a chance. They closed the gap for the first time. It's within 5 minutes.

But soon after Russell's three-pointer completely ended the game, the Spurs tried to use foul tactics, but fouling Russell was similar to sending points. They chose to give up after trying.

In the last game in January, the Suns won steadily.
