Chapter 163 Continue to run wild, the yellow race can also play basketball well!
In the end, the Phoenix Suns easily closed the game 116-79.
8 Suns players scored in double figures in this game, everyone was happy!
Among them, Chen Yan scored a game-high 43 points!
The Bucks' top scorer was Michael Redd with 19 points, and Mo Williams ranked second on the team with 16 points.
After seeing the statistics, netizens joked that if these two people can be regarded as a double-gun in the backcourt, then Chen Yan is simply a nuclear weapon...
This night was painful for the Bucks. Not only did they suffer a painful defeat, they also lost starting center Bogut. After the game, an MRI diagnosed Bogut with a tibial fracture. The Bucks also immediately announced Bogut's season.
Reimbursement news.
Tonight's game is a disaster for the Bucks, and it's the same for Bogut.
The league was not merciful because Bogut was ruled out for the season. Less than three hours after the news of Bogut's season was announced, the NBA's fine came.
In response to Bogut's malicious behavior in the game, the league issued a five-game suspension and an additional penalty of $30,000.
Lying on the hospital bed, Bogut's mind was filled with annoyance and regret!
But what this guy regrets is not that he stepped in the wrong. What he hates is that he was unlucky enough to have stepped in and actually ruined himself...
On December 29, the Suns continued their regular season journey, and this time their opponent was the Warriors who also played under the banner of running and gunning.
The highlight of the Warriors' running and gunning was when they defeated the Mavericks last season. Their passionate play style and smooth running and gunning instantly attracted countless fans.
Compared with the Suns, this Warriors' running and gunning style is more extreme and nonsensical.
If the Suns focus on offense and neglect defense, then the Warriors focus on offense and not defense.
If the sun roars rationally, then the Warriors roar unreasonably!
This style of play is highly entertaining and can easily attract fans, but it is destined not to go far in the playoffs.
As soon as he entered the Oracle Arena, home of the Warriors, Chen Yan felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
This stadium was filled with many Chinese fans wearing Chen Yan jerseys tonight.
The area of San Francisco has always been famous for its large number of Chinese Americans. In the 19th century, the gold rush was launched all over the world. Many Chinese people traveled thousands of miles to San Francisco to pan for gold, adhering to the concept of "seeking wealth through risk". Some of them were trafficked.
They went there to work as coolies, doing very hard, tiring and dangerous work, and were called "Chinese laborers".
Due to cultural differences and language barriers, most people have a difficult life in San Francisco, but there are also some powerful people who have established themselves in San Francisco and have taken root here, reproduced and flourished...
Chen Yan is very grateful for the support of these fans, but he did not have much interaction with the fans before the game. He just wanted to focus on the game. As for taking photos, signing autographs, etc., he had plenty of time after the game.
Soon, the competition officially begins!
From the beginning of the first quarter, the two sides adhered to the spirit of running and gunning to the end and fought against each other!
After the first quarter, Phoenix Suns 35:30 Golden State Warriors.
Amidst the waves of blows, the cheers of the home fans grew louder and louder.
I have to say, it’s really cool to watch this kind of open competition live!
The NBA is still in an era where defense comes first. It is estimated that only when the Suns and Warriors collide will the league create such passionate sparks!
At the beginning of the second quarter, the two sides still continued the offensive ideas of the first quarter. Chen Yan hit a three-pointer from the outside as soon as he came up, and then assisted Laga Bell in the corner to hit a three-pointer!
The Warriors' loose defense gave the Suns a lot of room for outside shots, but they also used quick transitions to constantly find holes in the Suns' defense.
The first generation of bearded Baron Davis and Monta Ellis responded to the Suns with two consecutive three-pointers in the next round!
This double-gun combination is much more powerful than the Bucks' two-gun backcourt, both in terms of viewing pleasure and explosive scoring power.
67 to 63, the two sides played the first half of the game with an open door.
The fans became more and more excited as they watched, but Suns coach D'Antoni was not very satisfied with the team's performance in the first half.
During the halftime break, D'Antoni made tactical adjustments.
Mustache removed Stoudemire and Diaw and replaced them with two old Warriors players, Azubuike and Barnes.
His substitution plan was very targeted. Azubuike and Barnes not only know the Warriors' offensive and defensive tactics very well, but they both have good perimeter defensive capabilities.
Coupled with the addition of Raja Bell, a first-level defensive player, the Suns' perimeter defense suddenly increased in intensity in the second half.
At this time, the lineups on both sides have become five small lineups, which add up to ten small lineups. This is also a very rare scene in this era.
After switching to the five-small lineup, the Suns' overall mobility has also increased to a higher level. The constant changes in defense and positions have made it difficult for the Warriors to take shots from the outside, and they are unable to obtain the comfortable shooting space they had in the first half.
In the second half of the third quarter, the Warriors' shooting percentage began to decline. The Suns took this opportunity to use continuous fast breaks and positional battles to quickly open up the score!
With a wave of strength in the third quarter, the Suns successfully took away the game!
In the end, the Warriors could only lose 109-119 at home.
Chen Yan continued to go on a rampage in this game. He played 35 minutes, including 9 of 15 two-pointers, 6 of 10 three-pointers, and 4 of 5 free throws. He scored 40 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists!
This is also the fourth consecutive game that Chen Yan has scored 40 points since his comeback, and his condition has been fully opened!
Nash, the soul of the team, scored 12 points and provided an astonishing 18 assists, providing sufficient ammunition for Chen Yan to fully unleash his firepower tonight.
The Warriors' two outside cores, Monta Ellis and Baron Davis, together contributed half of the team's 54 points.
It is worth mentioning that the two had already scored 36 points together at the end of the first half. In the second half, their touch suddenly dropped and they only scored half of the points in the first two quarters.
This is also a microcosm of the entire Warriors team. When they are high, they can score anything. When their hands are cold, they can smash the rim in the arena. Their state fluctuates greatly.
In the players tunnel, Chen Yan signed autographs and took photos with the enthusiastic Chinese fans.
For Chen Yan, this has become part of his daily work.
Chen Yan has no airs, and when interacting with the fans, he will chat about everyday things, make jokes and so on. This way of getting along makes the fans feel very comfortable.
Especially for some young fans, Chen Yan's image is like a big brother next door. His appearance gives children hope and makes these little guys believe that yellow people can also play basketball well!
