NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 44

The game started with the Bucks going first, but Reed missed.

Back to the sun, Russell and Stoudemire pick and roll. Everyone knows that they will start the offense like this, but they just can't prevent it. Stoudemire went in to catch the ball and caused a foul by Dan Gadzuric.

This is a second-round pick selected by the Bucks themselves. He is already in the third grade. His personal defense is okay, but he can't attack.

In fact, the Bucks' selection is not bad, and they have picked up a lot of second-round picks.

Not to mention Dan Gadzuric, their team boss Michael Reid is also a second-round pick.

With the addition of Xiao Mo, there are only three second-round picks in the starting lineup.

But in this kind of small ball market, picking out a few second-round picks is nothing. If you don't pick a real big shot, you won't be able to turn around.

In the future, they will also rely on the draft to turn around, but not yet.

To be honest, the Bucks started their defense very aggressively, otherwise they wouldn't have fouled directly.

It's just that the team's defense is too poor, which means there is no good defensive coach.

Coming back, Reid made another outside shot, this time hitting a three-pointer.

It must be admitted that Reid's three-pointer is indeed distinctive, he shoots quickly, and is a very good shooter.

It's a pity that a good pitcher is not equal to a good boss, and he is still a bit worse to support a team.

The Bucks may not want to be bad at this stage, and the players have a lot of ideas about sniping the Suns.

It's a pity that his ability was a bit weak. The Suns attacked Gadzuric and fouled Stoudemire, so he was replaced early.

However, the replaced 95-year-old No. [-] pick Joe Smith has rich experience against players like Stoudemire. Stoudemire suddenly fell behind and his performance was a little worse.

Joe Smith is also a legend. He was in the Timberwolves back then. In order to avoid luxury tax sanctions, the team reached a black box agreement with Smith’s agent. Since then, he has become a ronin of the alliance.

He would have had a better future if he hadn't messed up things.

But maybe, because this buddy is also a typical example of bad brains. He has earned over 6000 million dollars by playing everywhere in his career, and he went bankrupt and owed debts within a few years after retiring.

This not too old veteran made Stoudemire quite irritable, and he could still score, but he was not so comfortable.

However, the rest of the Suns played more comfortably, especially Russell.

Now Xiao Mo is too young, because he is afraid of being given up by the team again, he is a little timid in playing, and he is not as confident in his shots in the future.

This defense also belongs to the type that can't jump up to block shots at all. When Stoudemire was uncomfortable, Russell used the cover to shoot a few shots.

He still couldn't help spouting trash talk, "Dude, you vote too, why spread the word when you ship it, come on, I won't guard against you."

But the opponent still passes the ball honestly, and can be a tool man with peace of mind.

This kind of situation is rare. Maurice Williams will soon show confidence in the Bucks. Of course, the defense will not improve much. The next time we meet, everyone will explode at most.

And this time Stoudemire's general weakness of assisting defense was also seized by the Bucks. Desmond Mason went in several times and hit the basket successfully.

This guy has also won the slam dunk championship, and he is very physically fit.

The Bucks' defense on the inside in the first quarter was okay, but they often made mistakes when defending a pick-and-roll from the outside. Iguodala came to the touch again this time, hitting two three-pointers, which made the Bucks helpless.

The main players of the two sides have offense and defense against each other. When the substitutes came up, it was the Bucks who showed their power first.

The Bucks' two backup guards, Strickland and Mike James, both felt good and scored when they came up.

The Bucks fell behind once, but after entering the rotation period, they even caught up with the score.

But the good times didn't last long. The Bucks' two backup guards were more unique than Xiao Mo, and they hardly passed the ball.

It is really powerful when it can hit, but it is easy to be pushed by the Suns for a fast break if it fails.

When Russell was resting below, he saw Barbosa's fast break push and fly.

Although he is not as accurate as Russell's long pass, he is extremely fast and has completed a few times a dragon, blowing out the Bucks' back line.

The head coach of the Bucks is also a little depressed, but as long as the team is a bit reliable organizer, they don't need to dig out second-round picks that others don't want.

"Gentlemen, we need to play more reasonably." Coach Terry Porter shouted helplessly from the sidelines.

Then the main force came on the field, and Reed shot extremely fast, hitting the iron with a crack.

Russell quietly sent a football-style long pass, and Marion dunked twice.

The home fans are in great spirits, they like to watch the Suns go and dunk, it's really cool.

The Bucks, who have no offensive ability inside, are thrown by outside players, and the Suns gradually gain the advantage.

At halftime, Stoudemire vomited again.

"I should get more free throws. Those few turnovers were obviously fouls by them."

In fact, his statistics in the first half were not bad, but he just played uncomfortable, and the Bucks behind him began to pinch him.

Others were grinning because the team took the lead.

Russell gave Stoudemire a punch in the arm, "Stop complaining, you are enjoying star treatment."

"Seriously, Amare, you have attracted the opponent's defensive attention, we can score more easily and win the victory, you should be happy, you are of great importance to the team."

"I just can perform better." Stoudemire said proudly.

The Bucks' locker room is also seriously summarizing the situation in the first half.

Reid is the leader of the team, and it is normal for him to take more shots. If the two on the bench still shoot that much in the second half, then they will definitely not have so much playing time.

As for sitting on the bench completely, that's not enough, they still need someone to score.

Terry Porter regrets that there is no guard like him on the team. He played well back then and passed the ball very well. He also wanted to be like D'Antoni and find a backcourt leader similar to himself. It's a pity that everyone's fate is different.

In the third quarter, the Bucks played a lot more reasonably, and Reed didn't have such a wild shot.

It is still useful for the boss to lead by example, and Van Horn also pulled out and hit a three-pointer, keeping Marion from going inside to help defend.

It's a pity that their defense really can't be strong, they can only do it personally, the effect is not good and they are prone to fouls.

The Suns used Stoudemire as a tactical tool man to feint, and then Marion suddenly hit Van Horn, which worked well.

Russell continued to send out assists, and Iguodala also made another hit from the outside.

Needless to say, Joe Johnson, opponents dare not let go of this point.

When the Bucks couldn't take care of the defense, Russell also took the opportunity to make a shot, scoring and assisting in double figures in the third quarter.

With the data, the team also opened up the score, and the lead came to double digits. Russell felt very good.

The Bucks still haven't given up, and their bench firepower is still stronger than the Suns.

So Russell went up to improve his stats in the final quarter, scoring 16 points and 16 assists, which felt very slippery.
