The strongest basket king

Chapter 252 Break the record
When the Suns shot the most fierce three-pointers, the Nuggets chose to play inside instead of following the opponent.

The score gap between the two sides was narrowing, and they had to be overtaken several times, but they still did not panic.

Now everyone in the team believes in Xiang Chu and obeys him. They firmly believe that Xiang Chu can solve the problem.

In fact, Xiang Chu can always find opportunities to score points, and the sun's crazy pursuit has no immediate effect.

When the Suns had to double-team Xiang Chu, the opportunity for the Nuggets came.

This time, it was Belinelli who stood out from the outside line. Belinelli hit consecutive three-pointers, temporarily putting a stop to the Suns' pursuit.

The Suns played very tenaciously in this game. When Xiang Chu went to rest, they launched a second wave of chasing frenzy. Dragic did not rest. He took the Morris Brothers and Gerald Green again on the court. Three points of rain.

Compared with the bombardment, the Nuggets are no match for the Suns, and their three-pointers depend on the shooting opportunities created by Xiang Chu.

The 10-point gap was fleeting under the pursuit of the three-pointer. George Karl's face was a little dark. Xiang Chu was good, but it was also uncomfortable to be beaten violently without Xiang Chu on the field.

Originally thinking that this match could be won easily, he looked at Xiang Chu.

It's not just players who have thoughts about records, and George Karl is not exempt. He still values ​​similar things. You must know that the record did not appear in his hands at the beginning.

Xiang Chu nodded slightly, he was willing to fight ahead of time.

In fact, the game against the Suns was not that tiring, and the opponent had very little hand-to-hand combat inside.

The situation was different after Xiang Chu came on the court. In fact, it was a matter of rhythm.

Mozgov has no deterrent power on both ends of the offense and defense, so the rhythm cannot be suppressed. Instead, he appears slow on the court, which is a drag on the team.

But Xiang Chu has enough strength, and his rhythm can easily become the dominant player on the court.

In fact, it is also simple to limit the Sun's fast-playing storm, score the ball and prevent the opponent from switching.

Xiang Chu can help the team score in more than one way. The Suns play a small lineup, which means that they not only give up the inside defense, but also have the advantage of rebounding.

Xiang Chu was on the court, the sun didn't make any arrangements, and the rebounds just fell.

In the last few minutes, the Suns would rather make strong shots from outside the three-point line than go in and play. Xiang Chu's deterrence to them was too great, and the players on the Suns court could not help avoiding him.

It's just that the Sun's three-pointer feature is not the kind of strong shot.

After the situation changed, the Suns' offense became more and more hesitant. Marcus Morris missed a three-pointer and Gerald Green missed a three-pointer.

On the contrary, the Nuggets took their time and expanded their lead again.

The Sun has no more ways to restrict Xiang Chu. The Morris brothers, Markieff Morris fouled five times, and Marcus Morris fouled four times.

The point is that the time has entered the last minute, but the Nuggets' lead has come to 1 points.

Bledsoe made a defensive foul on Knight, but he only made two free throws when he went to the free throw line. When the Nuggets came back to control the time, Knight missed a shot at the last moment, but Xiang Chu got another offensive rebound.

The Suns chose to foul, Xiang Chu made two free throws, and the game lost its suspense.

Sixteen consecutive victories, since then the winning streak in the history of the Nuggets has changed the protagonist.

George Karl laughed heartily, "I don't care about the winning streak, do you think I should say such hypocritical things, hehe, this is great, we have a group of very special young people."

"They're different, they're always looking to win. Any manager would want to coach a team like that. This season, we're fully prepared."

"I like the winning streak, but the winning streak is not our goal. Our ambition is in the playoffs. Now we must calm down and prevent injuries. We were disturbed by injuries last season, otherwise who knows what will happen What."

Xiang Chu is also in a very good mood. He said: "There is no doubt that the team still has some weak links, but we are getting stronger and stronger. I like it here."

"We don't care how many games we win in a row, we want to win every game. We try to find a way to win, I think the team has done it this season, especially with injuries and everything, we have done it. "

This is their team's own winning streak, but other media dare not ignore their state.

ESPN also commented, "These young people are shocking."

Xiang Chu is very young as the core of the team, and some important players in the Nuggets are also very young. Young people may not have enough experience, but they are fearless.

Olivia is helping to campaign for votes, but Xiang Chu himself has no time to pay attention to the outside world.

He flew to Los Angeles with the team to play back-to-back games against the Clippers.

To be honest, the Clippers did a good job in the summer. They traded to Redick and cheaply acquired Darren Collison, who could disrupt the rotation. Look for opportunities to reinforce.

But their results are not very surprising. Of course, it is also related to injuries. Redick will not be able to play this time. They directly turned the sixth man Crawford into the starter.

The Clippers lineup is very good on the offensive end even without Redick, and it also has Jordan on the defensive end. Jordan has continued to attack in recent years, and his performance this season is particularly good.

Griffin has also grown further, but they still feel like something is missing, not as threatening as they were when they first brought Paul over.

However, at the beginning of this game, the back-to-back Nuggets were suppressed by the opponent.

It's okay to say Paul, Knight's personal defense is not bad, the key is Crawford and Griffin, the Nuggets can't defend at all.

And Paul's organizational methods made George Karl very scrupulous, and they couldn't easily pinch.

Faried couldn't guard Griffin, so the Nuggets switched to a lineup of one big and four small.

It's just that in the back-to-back situation, the Nuggets themselves have some problems, either they are not at all, or the offensive end is not as sharp as the opponent.

In this case, the Clippers are confident in flanking Xiang Chu, and sometimes they flank without the ball. They are also betting that the Nuggets will not be able to explode from the outside.

Of course, if the Nuggets break out from the outside, they can also adjust their defense.

As a strong team with both inside and outside, the Clippers are different from those teams that can only be forced to adjust their lineups. Even if they have not entered the top four in the Western Conference, they are still teams that can compete in the Western Conference.

When Crawford hit a three-pointer in singles again, the Clippers' lead had reached double digits.

This is the current defensive weakness of the Nuggets. If there are players who can hit against the defense, they don't have many options for the time being.
