After a few minutes of the game, even the blind man could see that when Durant took the ball from the wing to attack, Grant Hill chose a very good defensive position, but firstly, he was not tall enough, and secondly, he suffered a loss by moving sideways, and the overall defense effect was very poor.

The Suns tried to help shrink and block the ball in the inside, but Durant was able to pass the ball based on his height advantage, and the Suns also tried to help double-team the outside. Unfortunately, Westbrook cut the basket too fast, and he could clear the ball even if the three-point shooting rate was low.

"According to normal circumstances, after the suspension, they should start defending the joint defense, we need..."

Taking advantage of the timeout, Su Yang explained the key points of the tactics that had been training in the previous few days, emphasizing fast passes, more 45-degree area covers, more free throw line support, more cuts down, and finally emphasizing patience.

Westbrook and others nodded frequently to respond, and Su Yang praised Durant for his outstanding performance and encouraged him to keep up.

The whistle sounded at the end of the pause and the game continued.

The Suns did not make personnel adjustments, and Nash received the ball from the bottom line in the backcourt and advanced, and the audience shouted in unison to defend.

The Suns' overall tactical literacy was too good. Nash did not make any gestures or shout any code names. Richardson took the initiative to use Sir's cover to start from the left wing position, cut across the free throw line, and move to the right in a large range.

The left half was cleared in an instant, and Nash dribbled the ball to 45 degrees and directly cooperated with Si.

Because Matthews was taken away by Richardson before, the Thunder could not defend the third and second in part, and Ibaka and Westbrook decisively attacked each other.

The attack was fast and fierce, but Nash was Nash, who could easily pass the ball out from between the gaps between the two people.

Xiao Si, who had disassembled the inward cut, easily received the ball, took two big steps in a row, and jumped up against Chandler who was making up for defense.

In an instant, Chandler avoided sideways, and Xiao Si still entered the realm of no one, and once again slashed Mount Hua.

The basketball slammed into the net, and Xiao Si was not excited at all. He quickly turned around and returned to defense when he landed. The rest of the Sun were the same.

In just a few seconds, the Suns team formed a three-and-two joint defense formation in the frontcourt, and Richardson coordinated the top of the arc.

"What a pity to the sun..."

Seeing the Suns' team standing like that, Su Yang sighed a little. The Suns had Marion and others back then, but their overall defensive strategy did not keep up. Now the overall defensive strategy is still okay, but it is not as good as the defensive configuration as before. A typical tears in the era.

While feeling, Su Yang signaled to implement the bottom line cross-cover tactic, focusing on attacking the weak bottom corner area with three or two joint defense.

Westbrook immediately raised his hand and threw the ball to Matthews on the right, rushed to the right waist position, and bypassed from behind Sir Si. At the same time, Matthews passed the ball to Durant who ran to the 45-degree three-point line on the left, and Sir Si subconsciously turned around and looked over.

Westbrook continued to run left across the paint area, and no matter how he looked, he seemed to be going to the bottom corner of the left to catch the ball.

All the Suns' defense was taken away, but Chandler suddenly kicked the ground and started. With Westbrook's cross cover, he quickly ran to Si's back to build a wall, while Westbrook stopped and stood at the edge of the reasonable collision zone, setting up a wall to block Lopez.

The basket was suddenly empty, and Ibaka in the right corner rushed to the basket simultaneously, jumped high to catch Durant's pass, and dunked with a clang.

"yeah!" Cheers rang out from the Ford Center.

Su Yang clapped and patted Westbrook's chest lightly to show praise. The player who broke the joint defense this time was Westbrook. The small body and wall blocked Lopez and wanted to commit a foul was really not easy.

The Suns made a quick attack, and Nash dribbled the ball to the right wing of the frontcourt, and took advantage of the situation to break through on the sideline with the help of Sir.

Ibaka changed to prevent interception and deliberately took a step forward, as if he was planning to prevent breakthroughs based on his height and speed.

Then he thought that Nash had changed hands continuously and shook his hands under his crotch, suddenly he rose up and shot with a difficult time.

Ibaka jumped with all his strength to interfere, but unfortunately he was useless. The basketball went into the net with a hollow sound.

"Pay attention to controlling the distance!" Su Yang spoke out to remind him, knowing that Ibaka overestimated his blocking ability, and some underestimated Nash's ability to fight alone. Like many people, Nash could only steal some easy scores, and the stereotyped image was too deep.

The Thunder attack changed the border, and the Suns once again set up a joint defense formation, but they were in the second and third joint defense, intending to defend the bottom line.

Westbrook hurriedly threw the ball to the left wing, but the Sun tilted to the left overall simultaneously, and the two-three joint defense became three-two joint defense.

Durant is strong, but he is still a little scared when facing both sides and blocking from the front at one time, so he has to pass the ball back.

Westbrook received the ball again at the top of the arc, and the Suns also moved as a whole, and the three-and-two joint defense turned back to two-and-three joint defense.

After changing, the Suns' overall defensive literacy is very strong, Westbrook is a little confused and subconsciously pulls the ball back and observes.

Seeing this, Su Yang chuckled, raised his right hand and raised his thumb to remind him: Just cut off the rotation of the sun at a high level.

Chandler quickly mentioned the free throw line, and Ibaka also mentioned the 45-degree free throw line on the left, blocking the rotation of the Sun's high position.

The Thunder formation became one, inside, four out, Westbrook passed the ball to Chandler, and then accelerated to 45 degrees on the right, pulling the high space. Lopez was forced to defend Chandler closely, but Chandler passed the ball to Ibaka, trying to create a misalignment for Durant.

Then I thought that Xiao Si was standing on the left waist without moving, staring at Durant as if he had a grudge.

The situation suddenly turned into Richardson's single defense against Ibaka, which felt like he was forcing Ibaka to take a two-pointer.

Perhaps because he felt that Ibaka's long-range shooting rate was not stable enough, Durant bowed and started running and rushed towards the basket without hesitation, while Chandler tacitly moved the wall to cover the space for retreating defense. He ran and blocked the Suns' defensive attention.

Lopez quickly contracted under the basket, but Durant suddenly stopped suddenly, and Ibaka threw the ball to the right at the same time.

The basketball flew straight to the right waist position, Westbrook, who was sprinting at full speed, jumped in his hand, and scored with a strong dunk.

Cheers burst out in the Ford Center, and the central screen gave a video replay: When Westbrook started to rush to the basket, Nash reacted almost at the same time. Unfortunately, no one in the interior was delayed, so Nash could not catch up at all. He was completely thrown away after he could only chase two steps.

Su Yang Xing whistled at the Thunder generals. He just broke the joint defense and played very well. The whole team was very proactive, with a tactical running position completely correct, and he was patient. In fact, Ibaka could make a long shot if he was misaligned, but Westbrook was still the most perfect ending of the dunk.

The offense and defense were changed on the field, the Sun's horn formation landed, Nash played for a moment, pulled the ball to move to the right, and the speed was extremely fast.

Xiao Si simultaneously went up to the lifting wall to cover it, and Ibaka changed the defense and delayed it as usual, but was lost.

Nash cut into the inside like lightning and got a huge open space. Durant gritted his teeth and contracted from the bottom corner to intercept it.

Unfortunately, Durant had just stood firm and Nash passed the ball to the unguarded Hill, who raised his hand and scored a three-pointer.

Swish! The basketball is hollow into the net, 25 to 17.

The Suns were close to the score, and Gentry also shouted to return to defense, and the team's momentum was more vigorous than the opening.

The DJ on the scene noticed that the atmosphere had changed and quickly took the lead in shouting OKC, and the audience shouted in unison.

The Suns still started with the second and third-tier defense formation, and Westbrook dribbled the ball across the center line. Seeing that Matthews was closest to Nash, he immediately raised his hand and threw the ball towards the 45-degree three-point line on the left. However, as soon as Matthews received the ball, the rest of the Suns moved to the left.

Nash also approached the defense shooting close to him. Matthews had no good idea for a moment, so he threw the ball to the top of the arc.

Ibaka, who followed up, took the ball high, observed for a moment and moved forward two steps, turned around and passed the 45-degree three-point line on the right.

Durant took the ball and stepped cross-legged, and with the help of Ibaka's horizontal screen, he quickly got rid of Hill and moved to the top of the arc.

Sir did not hesitate to switch to prevent interception and double-teamed with the chasing Hill. Durant decisively stopped and passed the ball.

Ibaka received the ball and scored two points, and made a slam.

Lopez jumped high and grabbed the rebound, and the Suns took the opportunity to launch a fast break. Nash received the ball in the middle and rushed violently. He cooperated with Hill on the left side of the frontcourt to play a gun tactic. Under Durant's pressure of switching to prevent interference, he made a quick stop and drifted in the mid-range shot, and only 6 points away from chasing.

The booing stopped abruptly, and the sun bench cheered and Gent nodded with a little smile inside.
Chapter completed!
