Chapter 636 The Enraged MVP
On the Suns side, Bloodcloth forced a layup, causing a foul by Valanciunas.

Because the space is wide open, it is much more difficult for the Raptors to help defend against the opponent's breakthrough from the outside.Not only is the opponent's outside shooter threatening, but the distance of the defense has also become longer, which objectively makes it difficult to defend.

Blood cloth walked to the free throw line and made two free throws steadily!Both sides draw!
"Eric still plays with so much passion!" Kevin Harlan said with a smile.

"As far as I know, Eric has such a personality. If you let him play slowly, he won't be like him, and he himself is not comfortable." Drexler said.

Jeremy Lin dribbled the ball, and after the pick-and-roll, it was distributed to Valanciunas inside.

Valanciunas attacked inside and was double-teamed by the opponent. He quickly pointed out DeRozan on the outside.

The Raptors made a pass outside and the ball went to Ying Xiong in the bottom corner.

Ying Xiong didn't get an absolute vacancy, but he had a chance to make a move.I saw him pull up directly and shoot a 3-point jumper...

The ball spins backwards in the air, and the trajectory is extremely straight towards the basket.

"Shua—" This 3-pointer was hit steadily!

"Nice shot!" Kevin Harlan explained.

Ying Xiong smiled, he felt very good today, and hit his first 3-point shot.

In the first half of the first quarter, the Suns, known for their offense, missed 3 points from outside, so their offense was sluggish.Their offense cannot be opened, and that is a defense that is riddled with holes. Naturally, it cannot stop the powerful offensive firepower of the defending champion.

Ying Xiong felt very good in the first quarter. He played off the ball and easily made 8 of 6 shots and scored 17 points.Tucker is very strong, but when he meets a player with Ying Xiong's talent, he has nothing to do.He is very powerful, but his speed and jumping are average, so once the opponent does not fight against him, it is difficult for him to use his strengths to limit him.

Both Ying Xiong and DeRozan played very well, so the Raptors established a double-digit lead early on.The Raptors fans at the scene didn't feel the tension of the game at all. They seemed to see that the Suns team, which was at the bottom of the Western Conference last season, was useless except for their offense.

—but they were wrong...

The two sides entered the contest of rotation lineup. On the Suns side, the two brothers Markieff Morris and Marcus Morris, Alex Lynn, Ismail Smith and Gerald Green were deployed.

As soon as the rotation lineup of the Suns came up, they played a wave of 8:0 spurts, quickly narrowing the point difference to only 4 points.At the end of the first quarter, they narrowed the point difference to only 2 points.

This made the Raptors fans start to worry, "What's the situation?" Some fans left their seats 3 minutes before the end of the first quarter and went to the bathroom. The success is only 2 points... This feeling is too unbelievable.Is this still the worst team in the league, the Suns?Why does it feel like the killer of a strong team?
"Clyde, why is Phoenix's second team so fierce?" Kevin Harlan asked.

"Phoenix's second team's original staffing is that the offense is crazy and unstoppable, but it is very good. When the state is good, the touch comes, which is pretty crazy. And if Toronto's second team has no shooters. , the defense will be a problem. Now one trades up and the other trades off, which is the current situation." Drexler explained.

Section 2 started soon.In the second half of the first quarter, the magic of the Suns' terrifying second lineup continued. No matter how they played, their offensive efficiency could be described as terrifying.Even though the second team of the Raptors played a very good offense under the leadership of Jeremy Lin, it still couldn't stop the opponent from overtaking the score.

Coach Casey could only call another timeout, trying to cut off the opponent's magical touch and high momentum in this way.Of course, he also wants to take the opportunity of the timeout to make personnel adjustments.Obviously, Ying Xiong is going to play early.

"Clyde, what do you think Devin needs to do to solve the current predicament?" Kevin Harlan asked.

"I think Toronto needs to adjust its mentality. It was a little impatient on offense just now and made more mistakes. In addition, it should be played as needed. If he is there, the team has a backbone on the field, even if the opponent is really hot. , There is also a BUG to confront the opponent!" Drexler said.

Ying Xiong and Lowry played together, replacing Novak and Jeremy Lin.

Lowry dribbled over, and the score was 32:36, with the Suns leading by 4 points.

With the help of a screen at the top of the arc, Lowry broke through with the ball forcibly, and after encountering obstacles, he scored Ying Xiong from the outside.

Ying Xiong catches the ball and makes a 3-pointer—no!
Markieff Morris got the rebound and gave Ish Smith the drive.

Ismail Smith dribbled to the frontcourt, and with the help of his teammates, he divided Gerald Green on the right wing.

Facing the defense of the corresponding hero, Gerald Green directly faced the opponent and made a 3-pointer-returned!This is already his third 3-pointer in the game. In less than 3 minutes of playing time, he has scored 5 points on 5 of 4 shots!

"Gerrard's ball is too tough!" Kevin Harlan said excitedly.

Gerald Green was also very excited. He gestured a "3" to Ying Xiong, walked past Ying Xiong when returning to defense, and sprayed a few trash words in a voice that the referee could not hear!

Ying Xiong's reaction was - a slight smile!But those who knew him well knew that he was somewhat irritated.

"The game was good, Gerrard responded to Biao, what an unexpected matchup!" Kevin Harlan said meaningfully.

"I guess it's time to respond!" Drexler smiled mysteriously.

Lowry dribbles over and finds someone at the top of the key.

Ying Xiong came out to catch the ball, and it was Gerald Green who defended him.

Ying Xiong grabbed the ball with one hand and signaled his teammates to pull away.

The fans at the scene immediately became excited and cheered continuously. They liked seeing Ying Xiong do this the most.Not many people would dislike this kind of passionate scene.

Gerald Green said provocatively: "Come on one-on-one! Let me see your MVP strength!"

Ying Xiong didn't speak, but smiled again, but his eyes had become very deep and stern.

Ying Xiong's left wing held the ball with one hand, suddenly lowered his waist, lowered his center of gravity, and then started, rushing to the left.His movements are not fancy at all, but whether it is the speed of starting, the suddenness, the range and stability of the steps, they are all staggering.

Gerald Green didn't expect the speed of the opponent to be so fast. When he realized it, it was too late, so he could only reach out and grab it like a dead sheep.
