On April 17, the first battle of the sun vs rocket will be held in Phoenix.
The Suns have finalized the final playoffs 13 people's list, veteran Tom - gugliota is excluded, the inside line player is too many, does not need him. The coaching team has brought James Jones, who has been on the sidelines all season, ready to let him play in the garbage time for a while to accumulate experience.
Gugliota decided to retire at the end of this season. He didn't have any opinions about the arrangement of the coaching team. He couldn't play for a long time. There was no need to show his face in the playoffs.
In recent years, as the team's highest paid player, the pit sun is very miserable. Local fans often say the Suns are unbeatable this season if they give him a contract to any second rate star.
Before the start of the game, the basketball experts of the major media predicted the victory and defeat, all optimistic about the sun's promotion.
A few people who are optimistic that the Rockets can win one or two games say that the key to the victory of the Rockets is coach Jeff Van Gundy, who has more experience than Mike d'antony and won wide praise in Knicks, and the gap in the ability of the two coaches will become the key to determine the victory or defeat.
"Van Gundy, who has experience in the finals, has greatly exploited the rocket's potential. He said in an interview that he has thought of a way to deal with the sun's running and bombing tactics." The Houston media touted van Gundy. "He made everyone find their jobs, and the job of the players is to do their jobs well."
In NBA, the most intuitive criterion for judging players and coaches is the performance. Van Gundy has been in the finals, and d'antony has only been in the western finals. That's all.
Results after the start of the game, the Rockets failed to prevent running and explosion, and also failed to prevent Guo Xu. They were tortured.
Suns sent on the double tower, Xiaosi and neinei partner inside, Marion small forward, bell point guard, strengthened the defense.
Sun positional warfare is the main, not strong attack under the basket, Xiaosi, neineinei respectively in the middle and on both sides of the cover for teammates, Guo Xu holding the ball to look for dislocation singles opportunities, break or distribute the ball to the running bell, the latter catches the ball.
The main tactic of the Suns is to use the mobility to pull Yao Ming and Cato out of the forbidden area. If they don't defend them, they will shoot when they have the opportunity to prevent two high-quality interior air cutting impact baskets.
Join the sun's internal state to maintain a very good, no major injury, his average playing time is less than 25 minutes, the future become a glass man's chance greatly reduced. Needless to say, Xiaosi is recognized as one of the fastest insiders in the league.
The Suns led in the first quarter, and Joe Johnson took the substitutes in the second quarter, and Blake was in charge of the organization together, and the attack was also in good order. Defensive end Howard, Nene, Haslem three people performance is not bad.
In the last ten games of the regular season, D'Antoni kept Joe Johnson as the sixth man, so that he could play his attacking power and be responsible for holding the ball in singles. Blake just dribbled the ball through the half-time, waiting to catch the ball, shoot and defend, and the pressure was greatly reduced.
The Suns were 28 points ahead of time in three quarters, and the starters were off work early.
The young substitutes Diop, Jones, Howard and Blake went on the field to exercise. The only veteran who appeared was kukoch. His task was to help his teammates create opportunities, and he could also play the inside line to coordinate the tactics and help Blake share the organizational pressure.
Kirisek, the swing man who entered the playoffs, has been abandoned. He can do anything and is not good at anything. He will definitely leave after the end of the season. The coaching team needs time to train new players, and it is impossible to help potential substitutes to brush data. As for what contracts he can sign in the future, it depends on the ability of the agent.
The sun sent the flesh shield to strengthen the defense of the forbidden area, the rocket's attack was in a mess.
Originally, rockets backup point guard Muzi Norris had a good breakthrough, and could pick and roll with the ball, but in the middle of the season, the Rockets traded it to the Knicks, replacing retired veteran Mark Jackson.
Van Gundy picked up Jackson and thought that the veteran walking ball player could help the team better than Norris and organize the attack with rich experience. However, it is impossible. How can a defender who can't break through and pass the ball after half-time drive his teammates? Besides, he hasn't got three points yet?
As early as the 1990s, when van Gundy worked as a teaching assistant in Knicks, he made a deep friendship with Jackson, which laid a good foundation for the two to become commentary partners in ESPN in the future. The price of friendship is that the Rockets don't even have a qualified backup point guard.
The final score was 108-71, and the Suns won 37 points.
Guo Xu played 30 minutes, scored 33 points, 2 rebounds, 11 assists, 2 steals, and the Suns scored in double.
Francis, Mobley, Jim Jackson three crazy iron, two shooting rate less than 40%. Yao Mingkong had the advantage but couldn't get the ball. He only made 9 shots in 37 minutes, hit 4 shots, and added two free throws to get 10 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists.
After the game, the reporter asked Guo Xu to evaluate the rocket team, and Guo Xu spoke his heart this time. "I feel that the rocket's tactics are very wonderful, yes, I think of such an adjective. Every time I play rockets, I see Kato and Yao Ming play together. Their positions overlap at the defensive end, and the offensive end I don't mention it. It's too offensive. In short, the Rockets have few personal attacks. Let's guess who it is. "
What he said was that he could not bear to see the American media always calling Cato's defense tough and protecting Yao Ming. Just because Cato is a local center of the United States, he has been touted as a "tough" representative, but he is clearly a burden on the offensive side.Guo Xu misplaced all dare to guard against Cato, the goods have no technology, face frame dribble can hit his feet, Guo Xu can wait for an opportunity to break the ball, do not worry about his breakthrough. He also has no range, the periphery is casually empty, the only way to score is to hit the basket down after the pick and roll, and also to catch the ball in the low position, leaning against the opponent's back to wipe it under the basket.
Cato is a Diop with a slightly stronger desire to attack. He can only play a role in defending Shaquille O'Neal and Duncan. His strength can withstand people and he is not afraid to attack from low positions. The problem is that Yao Ming also defends like this, because Cato is in, Yao Ming often has to guard against pick and roll.
After the game, Guo Xu's words won the approval and support of many Chinese fans. Of course, they hope Yao Ming can get more ball rights. If Cato leaves, he may have more rebounds.
The second world war continued in Phoenix. Guo Xu's words did not change van Gundy's idea. He firmly believed that sending twin towers was the best way to deal with the sun. The difference was that Kato was allowed to prevent pick and roll.
rockets as like as two peas in the game. The sun keeps hitting the blocks and the side without ball cover. Guo Xu stops jumping shots and holds the ball to make a breakthrough. His teammates take the ball or attack in the fight, and the hit rate is guaranteed.
This time, Cato only played 16 minutes and left the field with 6 offense and 2 points and 2 rebounds. "Tough" he can not prevent Guo Xu's breakthrough, but also can't prevent Xiaosi's middle shot. The Suns have no one to attack the forbidden area with his back, so that he can play his specialty.
The Suns blasted the Rockets in the 3-pointer event, 15-for-33 shots and 3-for-10-3-pointers.
In the end, 116-84, the Suns won 32 points, leading 2-0 in the total score.
Guo Xu deliberately crazy cata this point, even pseudo fans have seen the rocket platoon layout problems. As a result, the Rockets returned to the home game three, van Gundy still sent the twin towers to start, did not adjust the lineup.
He is such a rigid coach, no one can change his mind.
Most of the time, he frowned and stood watching the ball, looking like a loser with a red eye.
I don't believe the big one can't win, big! Big! Big!
At the end of the game, van Gundy lost his heart and lost his eyes.
Shit, I can't win.
