The glory of the center

Chapter 154 Win the first battle easily

Kidd was held by Zhao Yue, but he was not willing. His attack this time must be successful to help the team raise the score to double digits.

Feeling that the pressure on Zhao Yue was not reduced at all, Kidd understood Zhao Yue's difficulty. At this time, the attack time was only 7 seconds. Kidd had no time to spend with Zhao Yue and quickly took a step to the right. Kidd tried to directly break through Zhao Yue's defense when Zhao Yue moved forward and his foothold was unstable.

"bu!" While Kidd rushed to the right, Zhao Yue's footsteps moved a small step to make himself face Kidd again, and the resistance from him rushed towards Kidd again.

Kidd also expected such a situation. He withdrew his right foot, and Kidd rotated quickly to the left, trying to turn to Zhao Yue's side and rush to the basket.

While squeezing forward and interfering with Kidd's turn, Zhao Yue's footsteps quickly moved a small step again. Kidd, who turned around, felt that he had bumped into Zhao Yue's arms, and his face changed slightly. He finally realized that what he had just thought was too simple. Although Zhao Yue was a big player and looked very bloated, he wanted to break through Zhao Yue's defense from time to time.

Kidd began to regret that he was a little careless at this time. If a player came forward to catch the ball at this time, it was obviously easier to break through Zhao Yue after passing the ball. However, after facing Zhao Yue just now, he made a singles. All the Mavericks players pulled far away at this moment, and there was no one at all. Go forward to assist.

The "du" sound echoed on the stadium reminding Kidd that there was not much time and took a big step back. Kidd finally distanced from Zhao Yue. Kidd's right hand dribbled the ball slightly to make a breakthrough fake action, and then jumped up with the ball.

Kidd deliberately made a fake move to deceive Zhao Yue, but Zhao Yue was not fooled. Almost at the same time as Kidd jumped, Zhao Yue jumped up in the air and leaned forward. Zhao Yue's big hand quickly waved out and quickly pressed the ball above Kidd's head.

"Bang!" He didn't even give Kidd a chance to take action. When the ball was about to fly out of Kidd's hand, Zhao Yue's big hand stirred on the ball in Kidd's hand.

"Cax!" Huge cheers broke out in the stadium, and in such cheers, Kidd fell to the floor with an ugly face.

"Ceal! Zhao Feng blocked Keith Kidd's three-point shot, and at the end of the first quarter, 9:29, the Suns led by 20 points!"

Kevin Harlan's shouting is enough to explain why the atmosphere at the scene is so hot. Suns fans have been looking forward to the Suns' appearance in the playoffs, but now the Suns' real appearance makes them excited. The Mavericks only got 9 points in the first quarter and established a 20-point advantage, perfect for him. We can't find any flaws.

Looking at the team members coming towards him, the Mavericks coach sighed secretly. Of course, he understood that the team members were depressed at this moment. For the Mavericks, a team with many old players, it was able to win the championship last season. This season's entry into the playoffs made them extremely excited. At the beginning of the game, even if they knew that they would face the first sun in the playoffs, the whole team was morale high, but it happened in the first quarter. Things have greatly hit the enthusiasm of the Mavericks players.

Novisky reacted in a timely manner. When he rushed to Zhao Yue, Zhao Yue happened to take Iverson's pass.

After receiving the ball, he stopped. Zhao Yue shook to the left side and made the move to rush to the left. Just as Nowitzki also stopped to stop Zhao Yue's left side, Zhao Yue suddenly started to rush forward and ran to the right.

"Bad!" After seeing Zhao Yue start, Nowitzki was busy stopping to stop Zhao Yue, but Zhao Yue's first step was so fast. Nowitzki had just moved, but Zhao Yue was about to rush past him.

Novisky was busy leaning sideways to close to Zhao Yue, and the rest of the Mavericks players also moved quickly to the basket to prepare for defense. Zhao Yue found that there was a player in front of him, but his footsteps stopped, but he still rushed forward.

"Squeak!" Rushing to the outside of the three-second zone, Zhao Yue's footsteps stopped in a violent friction sound, while the ball in his hand suddenly pushed to the right and sent it to Grant Hill outside the three-point line.

He received the ball and shot. Hill, who received the ball outside the three-point line, did not hesitate and shot decisively.

"Wo!" The ball flew out of Hill's hand and fell steadily into the basket and hit three points.

"Dirk Nowitzki missed the shot, Zhao grabbed the backcourt rebound, made a long pass, and Zhao sent the ball to Allen Iverson. Allen Iverson broke through the ball, Grant Hill, three-pointer, and then shot! Grant Hill hit two three-pointers in a row. In less than 30 seconds, Kevin Harlan's shouts sounded again, but the shouts did not end.

The Mavericks' attack failed again. When they came to the half, Iverson fired a cannon outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, and then hit it again!

29 points! The Suns hit three points in a row, and the difference between the two teams was narrowed to 29 points, and the fighting spirit of the Mavericks was completely defeated by such a difference.

32:57, at the end of the half of the game, the Suns established an advantage of 25 points, which made the second half simple. In the third quarter, Anthony and Nash and other main players also played symbolically. In the fourth quarter, Gentry made several main players sit directly off the field and rest.

76: 97, a huge advantage of 21 points, the Suns easily won the first game, leading 1-0.

"The Sun's iron-blooded defense, the Mavericks' first battle hit the wall", "Defensive upgrade, the Sun is ready for the playoffs", "The defending champion is easily defeated, the Sun Sword points to the championship"...

After the first playoff game between the Suns and the Mavericks, almost all the media focused on the Suns' defense. The Suns' defense, especially in the first half, impressed all viewers.

It is not surprising that the Sun can win the Mavericks, but how easy it is to win is beyond people's expectation. They are 20 points ahead in the first quarter, and the highest time difference is 29 points. The Sun's advantage is really obvious. Among them, the Sun's defense is undoubtedly the first. In the face of the Sun's defense, the Mavericks were completely lost in the first quarter, and the Suns easily got a chance to score by constantly defending and counterattacking.

Even if the Sun's defense after the second quarter is not as impenetrable as the first quarter, the Mavericks have not been able to please.

The defense shown by the Suns in the first game made people realize that the Suns are ready for the playoffs, and the defense of each team in the playoffs will be improved to a certain extent, and the Suns took the lead in setting an example.
