In the second half of the first quarter, the Kings strengthened their defense against the penalty area and focused on the inside of the Suns, making them unable to catch the ball in the face.

This move is effective. Because Sir and Nene lack the ability to carry the back, they will turn around in a simple way. Former Suns coach Frank Johnson looked down on them. Frank has always hoped that they will strengthen their back-on attack and strive to become a standing inside line like Chakalidis as soon as possible.

Now the two of them only use their specialties of face frames and rush to fight. It doesn’t matter if they are close behind them. They attract defense and can help Guo Xu create singles opportunities on the outside.

Joe Johnson and Marion both have shooting skills. Christie, who is good at assisting defense, dare not go to double-team anymore. Guo Xu singled out Jackson and took over the game.

Jackson was far away and Guo Xu made a three-pointer, but he was shorter. Guo Xu's fake move was simple and effective. He gently shook the ball and changed direction, turned around and changed direction, and with the rhythm and speed advantages, he could always create space for action.

He made consecutive moves, made 4 of 6 shots, with many offensive methods, one mid-range shot, one throw, two three-pointers, and another misaligned breakthrough in a counterattack that caused Weber to foul, making both free throws.

Adelman made another adjustment and replaced the swingman Jim Jackson against Joe Johnson, and Passed Christie played the point guard and defended Guo Xu. However, Guo Xu started passing the ball again, attracting the defense to his teammates after playing the pick-and-roll.

Sir Jr. made a high-level mid-range shot, and espn commentator Woodson laughed so hard. "How did those experts analyze players before? Amare's draft template is Ben Wallace, but he can make mid-range shots and often score goals."

Hovas sighed: "Amare was selected in the ninth pick. The Suns got a big advantage, which was similar to Nene than his body. He had a range and he was better off the offensive end."

In his rookie season, Sir's mid-range shot is not a conventional weapon, and his shooting proportion is not high, but he has done a good job.

The Kings' offense in the second half was good, and they seized the Suns' defensive loopholes again and again, but the Suns were even stronger, leading 40-28 in the first quarter.

Guo Xu scored 14 points and 9 assists in a single quarter and almost scored a double-double. Suns Smith scored 10 points, Nene scored 6 points, Joe Johnson scored 8 points, and Marion performed the worst. He scored 2 points with 1 of 2 shots and didn't receive much pass.

The Suns began to rotate in the second quarter, Guo Xu was off the court, Joe Johnson and Marion continued to play and lead the substitutes, and the other three were Alstom, Jacques Bson, and Haslem.

There are no players on the sun court who are over 205cm tall. D'Antoni doesn't like slow players. Under his system, Chakalidis and Gugliotta can only be the marginal person.

Even if Gugliotta wants to play, he will be able to be a center forward. He is very open about this. He earns tens of millions of yuan in his annual salary and has long been spent on his life. He has accepted his fate after years of injury and knows that he can no longer prove himself on the court.

Before Frank asked Gugliota to beat him, he was ruthless.

Frank asked him if he had confidence in himself, would he be able to fight? This was simply sick. If he was a man, he couldn't say that he was not good, right? With an annual salary of tens of millions, would he say "I can't do it anymore, I can only play as a substitute"?

The offense and defense conversion speed of the Suns second lineup is still very fast, and players take action when they have the chance.

Alstom has poor jumping power and cannot dunk 188cm, but he can complete the work of holding the ball quickly. His dribbling skills are so good that the ball is sticking to his hands. He was able to do this in the sixth grade of elementary school, so he became famous in New York.

Cutting the basketball from Alstom is almost impossible. As a playback, Alstom has the ability to still be able to control the basketball during a full-speed sprint.

They have good offenses, all five can shoot, Marion plays a guest appearance as a power forward, can grab boards on the defensive end, and can make fast attacks on the offensive end.

Although Haslem is slow, it is necessary to play. He is responsible for defending Divacs at home. He has no height but has weight to resist him outside the penalty area. His offensive end is more effective than veteran Sgerter Williams, because he can shoot mid-range shots after covering.

After this period of hard work, Haslem has lost 125 kilograms, but his weight is still above the standard, but his athletic ability has improved a lot. He lost an average of 10 kilograms per month, and the coaching staff is very satisfied with his progress.

Clark is very thin. He only has the advantage of height when facing Marion, and his offensive efficiency is still not high. He can't escape the "hacker" of 201cm when counterattacking. Not to mention a big man like him, many defenders can't escape.

Damon Jones is a 191cm tall double-energy guard. He is known as a double-energy guard. He has poor ball holding ability and specialty is shooting. His defense is also very loose and cannot stop Alstom from advancing and breaking through.

In the second half, Guo Xu, S, and Nene came back, Jacques Bson continued to play, and the marginal man Morris Evans was sent to the second position for a while, allowing Marion and Joe Johnson to rest together. This is a rotation method discussed by the coaching staff, which can ensure three-point shooting and attack firepower.

Evans is 196m tall and weighs 100 kilograms. He will not suffer any losses when he can catch and shoot three-pointers on the offensive end. The team does not need him to do too much.

Jacques Bson's mission is also so simple. He fights randomly during counterattacks, and the positional battle is opened to watch Guo Xu and his teammates play pick-and-roll. Nene can occasionally give him a simple off-ball cover on the side.

D'Antoni's tactical system is to simplify the complex and there are not so many routines. To put it bluntly, it is similar to "Zen Master" Jackson, and it is also a bddy person. This requires finding the right person to execute the tactics, maximize the personal ability of the point guard and the athletic ability of the frontcourt players.

Depang is actually a construction coach. If he wants to achieve results, he must build the team according to his philosophy. If his players cannot run and have no three points, his coaching level will look very bad.

When discussing tactics, D'Antoni asked Guo Xu to participate, and he followed Guo Xu's suggestions on the rotation method. There is a very important suggestion, that is, let Joe Johnson lead a substitute in the second quarter, and the comprehensive skills of "single Joe" can play a role in a certain period of time and are no longer just pitchers.

This quarter is the Suns leading the way, 27-20, and 67-48 in the first half.

Guo Xu scored 23 points and 12 assists in the first half, and his performance exceeded his usual entire game data.

Under the leadership of Guo Xu, Xiao Si became the team's second scoring point, with 16 points and 4 rebounds in the first half, and substitute swingman Jacques Bson scored 8 points in a single quarter, performing well.

During the halftime break, many reporters were rushing to Phoenix and gave up interviewing other Western teams. They all felt that big news would happen today. The Suns, who just changed their coach, had an amazing attack power, and the score exceeded 110 points, was no suspense.

In the second half, the Suns continued to run and bombard the game. The five players played together, but the king still couldn't defend it.

Double-team Guo Xu will free up Xiao Si, and he will score one-on-one without double-teaming. The Kings can't do it if they want to join forces. The Suns counterattack speed is too fast. Divac and Peja often take action before they even landed.

Guo Xu played very well. Even if Nene made too many fouls and got off the court, the combination of him and Xiao Si, Marion and Joe Johnson was also very powerful.

Adelman could only fight the main players and did not dare to let Divac and important substitute defender Damon Jones appear. As soon as Jones got on, he was beaten into a sieve in 4 minutes. He didn't have a height and weight at the second position, so it was impossible to defend Jo Johnson.
