Chapter 125 Grab five!(1/4)
At Phoenix's G3, the Suns' changes were on the surface as soon as the game began.
First of all, they replaced the experienced Green.
Secondly, after Lin Xing won the jump ball, he found that the Suns had switched defense in the first attack at the beginning.
Cedric Cebaros pushed him and spread his long arms.
Lin Xing doesn't know much about Cebaros, he only knows that this man has also won the dunk king.
There is also a famous nickname called Iceman.
This ice man is not the ice man, and the gap between Cebaros and George Gervin is still a bit big.
Like Barkley, Paul Westfal does not expect Cebaros to lock Lin Xing against him.
He only has one request: follow Lin Xing and don’t give Lin Xing an easy ball shot outside.
The Suns' changes in both hands looked ordinary and did not attract the attention of Old Nelson and Lin Xing on the court.
In the first attack at the beginning, Lin Xing still played one by himself.
The main reason is that Lin Xing is not convinced. He feels that no matter how unbearable his 81 CET-shot, he will not be able to find the feel in three consecutive games, right?
With this idea in mind, he had a protruding face at the beginning.
In the middle distance, against Cebaros and Green's clamping defense, one stops, followed by another step, and then raised his hand and threw.
Bang!
"It's only a little bit..."
Lin Xing stared at the eyes and the ball was only a little short of it.
"I have a chance!"
He shook his hands and made his hands warm as much as possible.
Feeling the heat of his palm, Lin Xing seemed to see the scene of him hitting the ball in a long distance.
Turning around to defend, he found Barkley directly as in the previous two games.
Immediately afterwards, the Sun's attack.
Barkley received the ball and asked for a pick-and-roll directly.
Experienced. Green's pick-and-roll is of extremely high quality.
After blocking and disassembling, Barkley accelerated and rushed straight to the basket.
That momentum really makes me want a pig to fly.
With a clang!
As soon as Lin Xing walked around the cover, the Fliggy hung on the basket.
Lin Xing was stunned by this ball.
"No, right, this is not right!"
Just this ball, Barkley never played it in the first two games.
One of them started the game, and it was more than just something was wrong.
The sun simply stopped pretending and showed up—
In this game, they want to completely liberate Barkley.
On the defensive end, Barkley no longer had to face Lin Xing. On the offensive end, he also avoided Lin Xing's defense through pick-and-roll.
Especially this time with the pick-and-roll, after disassembling, Barkley faced Tyrone Hill's defense.
Although Hill is a short center, his speed is not fast due to his huge tonnage.
Although the tonnage is relatively large, he is not Barkley's opponent in terms of strength.
So after blocking the set of matches after the disassembly was disassembled, Tyrone Hill was no match for Barkley at all.
"This is... a pick-and-roll call tactic? No way?"
Lin Xing thought of the one-on-one-one-one-dish approach to pick-and-roll that is popular in the future NBA. It is very cancerous and effective.
Although he was the first goal, if Barkley really found his feelings, the game would be difficult.
"No, I have to find a way to cover it."
Lin Xing realized the seriousness of the problem, but just realizing it, the old bachelor sighed - it was useless.
Why did the Suns change? Green came up to start? It's not Oliver Miller's pick-and-roll quality, it's so eye-catching.
.Green is different. He is an old player with solid basic skills and high quality pick-and-roll.
The extremely high-quality pick-and-roll only needs to block Lin Xing for one or two seconds, which is enough for Barkley to completely open the distance between the two.
In the next game, Barkley took advantage of Green's pick-and-roll, bypassing Lin Xing's counterattack, crushing Tyrone Hill's switch, and scoring various points.
In the half quarter, Barkley scored 7 points alone, plus 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
While his efficiency is extremely high, he also played the role he deserves, driving the offense of the entire Suns team.
In the words of commentary Shimatt Gudica—
"Back to home, Charles Barkley is alive!"
Barkley is alive, but Lin Xing is still alive.
In half a quarter, he scored 2 of 4.
The two lost were both mid-range shots; the two entered were all stealing chickens at the basket.
Therefore, it turns out that hand swing cannot make your hands hot.
With 4 points in the half quarter and 2 assists, Lin Xing's performance is not as good as Barkley.
Because Barkley didn't hold this point down, the Warriors fell behind in the half-quarter game.
Although the score of 15 to 18 is only 3 points behind, the score is much worse than the score.
Seeing that Buckley returned to normal, Old Nelson was also anxious.
But it was also a widow who sighed when she was anxious - it didn't work!
Simply put, Barkley beats himself alive, because he depends on his teammates and pick-and-roll.
After the blocking is removed, isn’t it still one-on-one?
If you can't defend one on one, you can only help with defense.
As soon as the assisted defense was on, Kevin Johnson's chance came.
Lin Xing's mid-range shot was not opened, and the Warriors were not like Green, who could play fast attacks and positional battles and contribute to high-quality pick-and-roll inside.
He couldn't use pick-and-roll to avoid clamp defense like Barkley did.
So on the offensive end, all Lin Xing could do was to pass all kinds of passes and occasionally steal chickens.
Without Lin Xing's fight against Barkley, the Suns quickly gained an advantage.
In the fourth quarter, they once widened their lead to double digits.
In the end, in the first away game, the Warriors lost to the Suns and lost a game.
At the end of the game, Old Nelson had a cold face.
Losing is very uncomfortable, especially in this game, where the Suns shouldn't burst, this game broke out.
"20 shots, 12 goals were hit. In this game, Charles Barkley scored 32 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. The Fliggy Jazz are back!"
"Relying on the outbreak of the Fliggy Jazz, the Phoenix Suns who played at home won a game back..."
Cooperating with the cheers from the West American Arena, NBC's commentator also praised Barkley for a few words at the right time.
In this game, Barkley did perform well and played the style that the defending MVP should have.
Paul Westfal on the sidelines was happy and regretful.
"I listened to Charles early, wouldn't I win this game?"
Unfortunately, there is no if.
For the Warriors, only looking at the data, Lin Xing's performance is not bad either.
17 shots, 9 hits, and the hit rate exceeded 50%.
22 points were recorded, plus 10 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Efficiency is still very high.
But the same thing is true, data is often deceptive.
In this game, most of the 9 goals Lin Xing scored were obtained by stealing chickens and picking up bargains.
This kind of goal that steals chickens and picks up bargains, and the tactical contribution is basically equal to zero.
That is, these 22 points are a bit indispensable to the Warriors.
