The Way of the Center

With a huge advantage, the Thunder didn't start the onslaught at the beginning of the fourth quarter. Jeff Van Gundy sent his second team. He hopes that the second team can use excellent offense to stabilize the score and wait until the time is right. Send in the main force to take over the game.

　　 Van Gundy can rest assured that the main force rests, and the Suns have to give it a go when facing a 12-point difference. In order to make a comeback, the cost of physical exhaustion is nothing at all.

In the fourth quarter, the core of the Suns Nash and Stoudemire remained on the court, but Stoudemire reached the position of center forward, and the person who replaced the power forward position became a bigger offensive player. Reese Dior, the shooting guard was replaced by the more aggressive "Brazilian Lightning" Leondro Barbosa than Raja Bale.

　　 is such a small lineup, it also officially announced that the Suns will attack in the final quarter. The defense that Van Gundy arranged for the Thunder is truly a challenge!

　　 The aggressive Suns started the game again. Without Robin Lopez, the Suns' offensive speed has increased by another notch. Barbo Satondio's ball-free pick and roll immediately found a gap, as long as he finds a gap, Nash's ball will definitely be passed.

as predicted! Nash's insight did not disappoint Barbosa. As soon as Barbosa stood, Nash's pass came!

　　 The Brazilian made a three-pointer, and Mason, who was delayed by Dior, was completely unable to interfere with this shot. As long as the goal is scored, the Suns' trailing point difference will return to single digits.

　　 Everyone is paying attention to the basketball, but it is a pity that maybe because the Brazilian has just played on the court, his hand feels a bit cold, Barbosa did not grasp this open shot opportunity, and the basketball slammed out of the box.

"What a great opportunity! The Suns can't even convert open opportunities into scoring now!" Mike Brin's commentary is very neutral. He will not regret for the Suns' shots, and also for the thunder's wonderful entry. Cheers for the ball.

　　 Nash shook his head helplessly. His passing is indeed very subtle. He is really a point guard who can turn passing into an art. But what's the point of his passing the ball that won't allow teammates to score?

　　 The fans of the Phoenix Suns are still comforting themselves. The Brazilian must have not grasped the opportunity just because the feel is not hot yet, and the next few goals will recover.

　　 But the Brazilian has clearly become the epitome of the Suns’ offensive weakness today. He ran out of the open again, received a second pass again, and took another three-pointer, but the result was the same, and he knocked out again.

　　 "Damn it." Barbosa waved his hand to Nash embarrassedly, and he failed to find the right shot for the two open shots.

　　 After the offense, Nash is still looking for an assist opportunity, but obviously he no longer trusts Barbosa. He decided to find a new scoring point. After all, there is only one game left, and the Suns can't waste their chances.

　　 Although the first two goals were not scored, the Suns' counterattack momentum did not die out. On the contrary, the Suns have become more and more courageous, especially Nash, who made a left-hand pass and completely revitalized the Suns' offense.

　　 Terry Porter's defensive concept makes Nash struggle in this system, but at least on the offensive end, he can still contribute his own strength.

　　 A three-pointer, one shot and two assists, Nash's sudden explosion made the Thunder's lead only three points left in a blink of an eye. Let the Thunder's second team and the Suns face off, and the current situation is a good show of the gap in offensive ability between the two groups.

　　Thunder fans looked so anxious in the audience, but Jeff Van Gundy was still watching the stadium quietly like an okay person. Van Gundy is not a god, his poor on-the-spot command and rigid tactics are the shortcomings that have been criticized by people. But today, he must not tolerate Nash taking away the victory of the Thunder on his own.

　　 Jeff Van Gundy called a timeout. Although there are still eight minutes before the end of the game, he knows that these three young men can beat the rest of the game!

"Ann! You continue to hold the ball in the high post! Only if you pull Stoudemire out, Russell and Kevin can get a chance!" The three young men looked at each other, and they must be the protagonists at the last moment. Up.

"And if you two find that you still can't get a chance after the breakthrough, don't hesitate to divide the ball directly into Anjie's hands, Ann, after you get the ball again, you will either organize again, or you will attack me directly when you see the opportunity! "Van Gundy explained all the offensive tactics in a simple arrangement. Next, he will focus on defense.

　　 After returning from a timeout, the Chesapeake Energy Arena once again won a small climax. The Oklahoma City fans burst into cheers when they saw the Thunder's third minor re-launch.

　　 And Van Gundy sent to assist the three young players. Damien Wilkins is still the defensive and experienced player. As for the power forward, Van Gundy chose Chris Wilcox, who had been the starter before. This arrangement allows the other two people not only to share the defensive pressure for the three minors, but also to carry some offensive burdens for them.

　　 The lineup of the Suns has not changed. It is still the small lineup just now. Even though Barbosa feels bad, he is still left on the court by Porter. Looking at this posture, this lineup of the Suns is ready to play the full fourth quarter!

　　The war between the two sides was about to start, and Anjie faithfully implemented Van Gundy's arrangement and took the ball in the high post. It's not that Stoudemire didn't know how accurate Anjie's CIC was, so he had to pull it out.

　　 "It's now!" Durant and Westbrook started at the same time, and both cut into the penalty area after a crossover!

　　 Morris Dior was embarrassed by this position. Is it to defend Durant or Westbrook? He was a little hesitant.

neither! After being attracted by Durant and Westbrook's internal cut, Dior's own matchup Wilcox was ignored.

　　 An Jie's pass without hesitation gave Wilcox a chance to make a mid-range shot.

　　 Defensive is not good, so rely on offense to make up for it. Wilcox raised his knife and dropped the basketball hollow into the net!

"Hey, the running of the Thunder players is amazing. As far as I know, Jeff has only a few offensive routines, and the scene just now is obviously not his style. Could it be that he was outstanding in that vacuum period? My husband still learned how to arrange an offense?" Mike Brin opened up Van Gundy again, not knowing whether this sentence was a favor or a loss.

　　 "Talent." Van Gundy smiled and shook his head. This crossover was not arranged by him. He didn't expect the three young people to be able to make icing on the cake on the basis of his own arrangement.

　　Although the Thunder's offense is completed this time, Nash of the Suns will not agree to these three brats. In terms of offense, his Nash-leading Suns have not lost anyone yet!

　　 After passing a pick-and-roll, Nash stepped aside and shot a three-pointer! Westbrook has been guarding against Nash's pass, but he didn't expect Nash to pick up and shoot after the pick and roll.

　　 What is even more unexpected is that Nash actually scored this opportunity because it was not a very good shot!

　　 "Steve Nash! The second three-pointer in the fourth quarter! Nash doesn't allow the Suns to stumble in such a game!"

　　 Is the defensive position good? Nash won't let the Suns honestly go to attack.

　　 Nash scored here, but Westbrook failed to respond. His performance in the first three quarters was very good, but in the fourth quarter, Westbrook's old problem of unstable shooting percentage was committed again.

　　 This problem didn't just arise in the NBA. When playing at UCLA, Westbrook exposed his shortcomings. There is no reason why Westbrook will be ranked behind Rose and others in the draft.

　　 The game played for a few minutes, and the only people who didn't score in the fourth quarter were only two people. One is Barbosa, who has made 0 of 4 shots, and the other is Westbrook, who has made 0 of 3 shots.

　　Nash’s offense is still unstoppable. Once this type of point guard starts scoring, it will be very scary. This is true for Chris Paul, and so is Steve Nash.

　　 Nash hit the penalty area, and An Jie was sweating profusely by this small point guard. After Nash broke in, he immediately turned his head to Dior outside the three-point line. He was going to pass the ball!

Unexpectedly, Nash made a pass and immediately raised his hand to the basket. Not to mention An Jie, even Dior was fooled by Nash's fake pass. He was in a good position to catch the ball. Unexpectedly, Nash suddenly attacked. The box scores the ball.

After 　　, An Jie did not dare to relax with Nash anymore. When Nash broke through again, An Jie hurriedly jumped and blocked. But Nash is a model for people who play with their brains. His agile flash caused An Jie to commit a defensive foul.

　　 Nash’s iconic free throw preparation still attracted people’s attention. He wiped his sweaty hair first, then touched the sole of his shoe, and finally, Nash stretched out his tongue and licked his hands. After this set of actions, An Jie felt his stomach churning.

　　 The preparatory action is wonderful, but Nash's free throw is still very accurate. Two free throws, Nash hit 4 of 4 shots in the fourth quarter and has scored 10 points!

　　 Fortunately, the Thunder were not beaten by the outburst of Nash. Although Westbrook's shooting percentage declined, Anjie and Durant still held the situation very well. Even Damien Wilkins, who has never been good at offense, made a rare three-pointer.

　　 But the Suns were significantly more efficient under Nash's leadership. With Matt Barnes's three-pointer and Nash's mid-range shot, the Suns just caught up to the point difference before the final minute of the game!

　　 Everyone on the Thunder still remembers the scene when they were killed by Paul in the last game. They swear that such a tragedy will never allow Nash to repeat itself!

　　 Westbrook posted Nash very tightly. Whether it is speed or body, Westbrook has the advantage. As long as he stays calm and doesn't make mistakes, Nash will never get a chance.

　　 "Amare!" Nash yelled out Xiao Bawang's name, and Ba Wang could only obediently go out and give Nash a pick-and-roll. But when Westbrook's stubbornness to admit defeat came up, how could it be blocked by a pick-and-roll.

　　 Just after Nash passed the pick-and-roll, he was ready to take a three-pointer, and he found that Westbrook quickly squeezed through the wall, and once again stuck with Nash.

　　Nash can't carry the ball anymore because he already holds the ball with both hands. Under Westbrook's pressure, Nash struggled to protect the basketball.

　　 There was no way, Nash had to pass the golfer to Stoudemire.

　　 Stoudemire got the ball and immediately went down into the penalty area. There was only one point difference, even if he made Anjie a foul!

　　 The dribble in a breakthrough is the best steal, and everyone who plays basketball knows this truth. Stoudemire just halfway through the dribble, Wilkins killed it halfway!

　　 With all his precision, he took away the basketball in Stoudemire's hands. Before everyone reacted, Durant took the lead in picking up the basketball ~www.NovelMTL.com~ At the same time, the white lightning ran across the court again.

"Dulan throws a long shot! Westbrook faces the empty basket! Oh! Tomahawk-style slam dunk! The perfect combination of height and strength! Is this really a dunk that a point guard can make!?" Mike Brin's mood was also adjusted to the highest point by the defensive counterattack at the last moment.

　　 After landing, Westbrook showed off his muscles in the audience, and his response was the endless cheers of the fans. His deduction almost deducted the Suns' hope of a comeback.

　　 Sure enough, in the case of a severe blow to morale, Nash once again fell into the defensive quagmire of Westbrook, and Matt Barnes's final blow also lost his head. When Anjie just grabbed the rebound, the red light on the rebound was also lit. The whole game is over!

"A wonderful fourth quarter! Nash and the three guys from the Thunder gave us a visual feast! 102-98, the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Phoenix Suns, the western powerhouse, at home, ending their shameful 10 consecutive defeats! Jeff Van Gundy, this guy who would have become an ESPN commentator led the players to do it all! Welcome to ESPN, I’m Mike Brin, see you in the next game!" Take off the headset, Mike . Brin laughed with satisfaction. The best working state is undoubtedly enjoying work, and today’s game really made Brin intoxicated.
