NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 67

"Miller hit the ground and passed the ball, and Martin made a dunk after receiving the ball! Wonderful, this is a pick-and-roll cooperation from the Nuggets."

"Oh my god, sharp response! It's a beautiful tomahawk from Russell and Stoudemire's exact combination, and the game exploded unexpectedly."

In the third quarter, both the Suns and the Nuggets played well with the pick-and-roll, and basically neither could guard the other.

But the sun's rhythm is slightly better, because they still have three points.

The Nuggets quickly adjusted and replaced Russell with a good handle.

Russell has been used to the weak side or the bottom line throughout his career, and the Nuggets immediately have a three-point threat.

Although Miller's pass is not as amazing as Russell's, it is very stable.

He sometimes attacks by himself and hits under Russell's defense. This is a skill that Russell does not have for the time being.

After the Nuggets made adjustments, they really bit the score.

Martin's performance in the final quarter was not worse than Stoudemire. They also shamelessly fouled Stoudemire and asked him to stand at the free throw line.

Stoudemire's free throws are really not bad, but now some teams find that this can interrupt the rhythm of the Suns.

Of course, if Stoudemire's free throw percentage is 80%, the opponent must not dare to do so.

And now Stoudemire's free throw percentage obviously hasn't reached this level, so he's being dragged by people.

He himself was rather depressed, and now he has increased shooting practice without Russell's reminder.

This is the motivating effect of a good record on the players. If the Suns are still the worst, even if the free throws are not so good, Stoudemire will not care.

Now it is different, the Suns have a higher degree of attention, he wants to become an All-Star, he cannot have obvious weaknesses, so he will actively become stronger.

The point difference between the two sides is not big, and as time goes by, the Nuggets want Miller to play Russell again.

However, this trick was not so effective at the end of the quarter, and Miller himself wasted a lot.

Russell's defense is not strong, but Miller does not have such a big face to frequently hit shots under defense.

He's just a decent starter, not an All-Star.

What the Nuggets can take out now is Martin. Martin is not as scary as Stoudemire when he rushes up, but it is also difficult to stop.

The Suns didn't foul him at first, but in the middle of the last quarter, they also started.

In fact, Martin's free throw percentage is a little worse than Stoudemire's, but they don't play fast and fouls don't make that much sense, but it's different at the last moment. The Suns don't mind comparing free throws with each other.

Because at this time, the Nuggets don't dare to play other points.

On defense, they also have a choice, and some players can let it go.

The Nuggets' three-pointers are still not as strong as the Suns, and they dare not withdraw an insider.

With only 5 minutes left, the Suns led by three points.

Miller began to use the pick-and-roll to play around. He accelerated and wiped Russell, and he seemed to throw and pass at the start.

But a pair of long arms appeared in front of him, and Marion directly covered the space for his shooting and half passing.

There is really no way around this. The Nuggets couldn't fully mobilize the Suns' defense, and Marion came over to help defend immediately.

Miller was also a little depressed. If he was singled out, he would have knocked Russell out, but the Suns' defense is really hard to play.

He could only lean sideways, and came up with a difficult pick.

Under the threat of Marion's long arm, he missed the basket. Fortunately, the referee gave a foul.

It's just that this is not the first time, and it takes a few times to get a foul, which is not worthwhile.

Miller's free throw percentage is not very good, he just had a confrontation, two free throws hit only one.

However, the Suns came back and Russell made a wonderful pass to Marion on the baseline, who hit a [-]-pointer.

After a crash, the Nuggets players felt a little uncomfortable.

It's so difficult, obviously it's their home court, shouldn't the players who are too strong should be tired at the end of the quarter, why do they feel that they are still a little bit tired.

Miller again tried to single Russell, but again missed.

They also fouled on the rebound, sending Russell to the free throw line.

Russell was very happy. It was not easy to find a shooting opportunity in the last quarter. Unexpectedly, Miller smashed the basket and bounced the ball in front of him.

As the team's free throw master tied with Marion, Russell made free throws steadily.

He cherishes unguarded shots, free throws count.

Miller didn't dare to play singles anymore. Fortunately, Russell hit a three-pointer to help the Nuggets retain hope.

Then came the performances of Stoudemire and Martin. The difference was that the Nuggets fouled harder, and Stoudemire once again completed the attack at the free throw line.

They already have to pay attention to the number of fouls inside, but Russell can foul, and he is ready to help now.

The Nuggets now have a looser defense against Iguodala, but the team is leading, and Iguodala has not rushed to shoot. The Suns are playing more patiently now, and they are slowly grinding their positions without fast break opportunities. They can also play like this .

Time is running out, and the Nuggets are a little anxious.

Russell made another shot from beyond the arc, but this time it was rushed.

He felt that he could take a gamble, but his previous goals not only had touch, but also had more space.

The Suns also gave the role players some space to limit Martin before. At the last moment, their defense will definitely be harder, and the players will move faster. Russell missed a hit.

The Suns attacked, and Russell didn't find a chance for a fast break, so he simply started pressing time.

He waited until the last few seconds before passing to Stoudemire.

Stoudemire made a mid-range shot this time, maybe it was because of the feeling of a free throw before, and the mid-range shot from the free throw line made a steady hit.

Seeing that the Suns gained another 2-point lead, the Nuggets became even more anxious.

Miller also tried a three-pointer. He is not Reggie Miller, he is Andre Miller. Three-pointers are not his good shots at all, so he made sure to hit the iron.

But at the critical moment, Xiaobawang showed his might again and directly blocked Nene's shot.

The Nuggets lost their temper completely. Although Martin also hit after that, it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

The Nuggets didn't even foul in the last few seconds and watched the Suns run out of time and take the win on their home court.

After the game, the Nuggets could only weakly express that they were short of major generals and had no choice.

The Suns have won nine consecutive victories again, and the players and coaches are very happy.

After the last nine consecutive victories, they stopped. Whether they can continue the winning streak is also the focus of the outside world.

With the previous winning streak, the mentality of the Suns' players is much better. They will return to the home court next, and there are still two days to adjust, so they will not worry about anything at all.

Russell is even more happy because his girlfriend is back.

Christmas is coming soon, and he can have a beautiful date in the next few days.

As for the game, if you can win, you can win by the way. Life is more than basketball.
