NBA's strongest prince

Chapter 70 Adjustment Recovery
"It was Stoudemire again, he was unstoppable today."

"There is no doubt that he is already a true All-Star. During this time, the Suns are calling on fans to give players more All-Star votes. Stoudemire is definitely worth it."

"The Grizzlies star Gasol can't stop him at all. Stoudemire still has steals and blocks today. His defense is also improving. It's time for the league to enter the era of the sun."

The current commentary is very exciting. On the other hand, Barkley is also talking about Stoudemire's performance. He is rarely serious.

"There is no need to doubt that he is a very talented player. The appearance of Russell this season has helped him fully release his talent."

"But the Suns can't be obsessed with the current results and style of play. They must improve the details so that they can go further in the playoffs."

In the final quarter, the game was still fierce.

Russell played relatively little time as the main force, and he didn't rest for a few minutes in this game.

If it weren't for the home court, it would have been a little bit unbearable after two days of adjustments ahead.

I don't know if I don't enter the league. The intensity of the NBA game is really high. Many athletes with animal bodies can't stand it, let alone Russell's relatively ordinary physical fitness.

Of course, the relatively ordinary physical fitness in the beast herd is also much stronger than ordinary people.

It's a little troublesome that White Chocolate took a few minutes more rest than him, and he was in good spirits in the fourth quarter and was in a hot state.

Fortunately, Bai Miller withered directly, and the Grizzlies still had to rely on Williams and Gasol's pick-and-roll.

And Shane Battier, who wants to go inside, also consumes a lot, and his shooting is no longer a threat. The Suns' current advantages are Stoudemire and Marion, but they are full of energy.

This is the advantage of home games, the players are in much better physical condition.

The league's insiders are in decline, and there are some signs now that the sun's small and fast insiders can often bully some teams.

It is conceivable that the pure meat shield center will not be so popular soon.

The fourth quarter of the Suns was a little different from the Suns. After the pick-and-roll was launched, Russell gave the ball to the inside, and Stoudemire and Marion started after receiving the ball, hitting the basket in turn.

Gasol is very weak inside, like a little daughter-in-law who is being bullied.

It's not that he doesn't have frame protection, but his explosive power can't keep up, and his weight can't completely resist people.

So Gasol can do everything in the paint, but he will be blown up a lot of the time.

It should be much easier for him to play four, but the Grizzlies don't have the depth of the lineup.

This caused the Grizzlies to play further and further outside, and Gasol was pulled near the three-point line.

Fans who are not familiar with it may be mistaken. The Grizzlies can't tell that they are a strong defensive team on the offensive end. They feel that they are an outside shooting team.

On the contrary, the Suns, who like three-pointers in fast breaks, do not shoot three-pointers. They score the ball steadily in the interior, and the score advantage is always in the area of ​​5 to 10 points, which is extremely stable.

The Grizzlies could still bite the score in the third quarter, but they really can't hold it now.

The sun doesn't talk about martial arts, and the strong team with the first record in the league is still the main force in the home game, which makes it difficult for people to play.

Halfway through the final quarter, the Grizzlies had to use some small tricks, such as various fouls on Stoudemire.

However, Stoudemire's free throws were very accurate at this time, which made the Grizzlies very helpless.

They can only keep scoring three-pointers and resign themselves to fate.

Miller finally hit the first three-pointer of the second half, but it was the only one.

At the critical moment, Battier and Posey's three-pointers both hit iron, and the inside core Gasol became a decoration, and the Grizzlies could only watch the passage of time.

They did not give up, because the Suns did not lead to double digits.

Russell likes their fighting spirit very much, because they fouled Russell's tactics.

With four free throws, Russell finally scored in double figures, feeling that he still needs the cooperation of the opponent to get a double-double.

The Suns won the game without any risk. Russell had 11 points and 17 assists.

And Stoudemire dominated the court again with 30+11, and it was really cool to get the free throws right.

This immediate effect also inspired his enthusiasm for shooting. The team can renew the contract with Joe Johnson in advance. Stoudemire also has ideas. Maybe he can renew the contract with the team in advance after the end of this season.

His performance is getting better and better, and he will get the maximum salary. Stoudemire will be very happy if he thinks about it for a while.

After taking down the Grizzlies, the Suns have also won ten consecutive victories, and the last nine consecutive victories were refreshed so easily.

If it was placed last season, it would be unimaginable, but now they feel that they can win the next home game.

But before that, the whole team had a holiday to celebrate Christmas.

They don't have a Christmas game. For the players, the Christmas game is an honor but also annoying.

Everyone has to work when they are resting and gathering, which is more or less uncomfortable.

So the players who participated in the Christmas game were all suffering and happy. Russell didn't need to worry about it this season. The house was already set up, so he put on his formal clothes and went straight home.

Old Russell was at home early, and Michelia was a little later. She also participated in an event at the company.

When she came back, the Nora family had come.

Michelia and the two adults had a lot of business topics, and it was nice for Russell to hang out with Nora.

"I asked them to prepare the snacks you like."

"That's really great, but... I seem to have gained a little weight recently. I heard that women tend to gain weight when they reach their age. Am I going to get old?"

Russell couldn't help but tapped Nora's little head, "If we're getting old, let my sister and my dad live. I think you worry too much, you are studying and the company, you should relax. Better exercise more. Believe me, it doesn’t hurt to eat as much food as long as it burns off.”

"As a professional athlete, I recommend a high-energy dual sport, which is very suitable for us..."

Private events at parties are very exciting things, and Russell has gained a lot.

Back at team training the next day, he felt even more refreshed.

There are two days of adjustment time on Christmas. The players went to have fun and recovered mentally.

Long-term intensive games consume not only the physical strength of the players, but also their energy, so most players need some opportunities to relax during the season. Compared with nightclubs, Christmas gatherings with family members are obviously healthier and more effective.

Russell also gave his teammates Christmas presents, which were well received.

Rich people are like this, they can be very generous with a rookie salary, and handling interpersonal relationships is easy and pleasant.

With the help of the coaching staff, the Suns players re-entered the game state.

They sit at home and wait for the next team to challenge.

What they were waiting for was the Raptors who came from afar. Facing the weak Eastern team, which was exhausted by a long journey, the Suns were full of confidence and couldn't wait to expand their winning streak.
