Chapter 254 The offensive performance is late but it's here!
"Chen Yan single-handedly evened the 15-point difference. Ouch, this is really difficult!" Looking at the scores, Yu Jia sighed with a smile.
Zhang Lili smiled and said: "Now the game looks good again!"
During the timeout, the number of viewers of Suns vs. Nuggets G3 increased sharply.
Chen Yan's sudden outburst made the game suspense again!
On the Suns bench, D'Antoni temporarily adjusted his tactics.
Talking about tactics, one of them is to give the ball to Chen Yan and let him go and do it!
Other Suns players also expressed that they would do their best to cooperate with Chen Yan. After all, it was Chen Yan who took his life alone from falling behind to leveling the score.
The timeout ended, the Suns' lineup remained unchanged, but the Nuggets made slight adjustments.
The Denver Nuggets' lineup at this time: Iverson, Jr. Smith, Anthony, Kenyon Martin, Camby.
Nuggets coach George Karl usually does not let Iverson, Jr. and Anthony play at the same time because he is afraid that one ball will not be enough to score points.
But now is a special moment. One more point for the team to hold the ball and attack with one more point, and one more point to win.
George Karl himself didn't expect that this deployment would have immediate results in the first offensive round after the timeout!
As soon as Jr. Smith came up, he rushed into the crowd and made an exaggerated backhand pull!
The ball bounced on the basket a few times and then bounced in!
98 to 96.
The Nuggets regained the lead!
After scoring, Jr was so excited that he punched his chest!
Jr. Smith dares to take action, no matter how serious the situation is, which is why he is sometimes a super god and sometimes a super ghost.
Sun attack round.
"defence!"
"defence!"
"defence!"
The home fans shouted defense in unison!
They are trying to use this method to remind the players on the Nuggets court that it is time to cheer up!
Nash dribbled the ball past half court and wanted to find Chen Yan.
The player defending Chen Yan became jr.
George Karl has seen the defensive effect of Kenyon Martin, and it is estimated that he will never be asked to defend Chen Yan alone in this game again.
Jr and Chen Yan are similar in height and weight. As a new player, he has a lot of physical fitness and is crazy about Chen Yan!
Chen Yan circled the baseline twice before receiving Nash's pass.
Nash's thinking was also very clear. He just gave the ball to Chen Yan at this time!
Chen Yan caught the ball and wiped it towards the bottom line!
Jr didn't lose his position.
But it's only temporary.
Chen Yan suddenly pulled back and turned around, pretending to move outside the three-point line.
After I deceived Jr., I quickly accelerated and drove away!
A series of operations directly deceived Jr.'s underwear!
After breaking in, Chen Yan encountered Camby's defensive help.
Camby has been dunked by Chen Yan in this series, but he has not been able to overtake him. As the shot-blocking leader, he is somewhat embarrassed.
Camby worked hard this round, and he was ready to block Chen Yan's attack at this critical moment!
Under the huge interference from Canby, Chen Yan threw with one hand.
It looks like a throw, but it's actually an assist, easily helping Stoudemire dunk!
"Boom!!"
Stoudemire roared after the dunk landed, wreaking havoc on the basket. This is his favorite way to score!
98 versus 98.
The two sides tied again!
"Good shot! Chen Yan used his threat to attract help from the defense, and then assisted his teammates to dunk!" Zhang Lili shouted excitedly!
"This is the characteristic of Chen Yan. He is like a magnet that attracts defensive attention. The Suns have lacked players like this in the past few seasons!"
Both commentators were very excited. At this point in the game, if it weren't for the constraints of their image, they would have wanted to stand up and watch the game.
Nuggets here.
When a response was most needed, Jr stood up!
Use the outside screen to pull up a direct three-pointer!
Shooting while moving, or three-point shot, this shot is very difficult!
The moment the ball was thrown, George Karl's heart was in suspense. Jr.'s three-pointer was like a six-vein sword, coming and going.
But fortunately, Jr’s touch came to light today!
The moment he saw the basketball hit the net, George Karl finally breathed a sigh of relief!
"Whoosh!"
101 to 98, the Nuggets' lead reached three points.
Even the commentator was amazed: "It was not Iverson or Anthony who stood up for the Nuggets at the critical moment, but Jr. Smith!"
The Nuggets fans excitedly waved the towels in their hands. For them, it didn't matter who stood up, it was only important that the team maintained the lead!
Looking back, the Suns' attack continued.
Chen Yan used the screen to get out, then made an emergency stop and moved quickly towards the bottom corner.
The Nuggets' attention was all on Chen Yan. Chen Yan also disrupted the Nuggets' defense through a series of moves. Nash seized the opportunity to shoot an arrow from the free throw line while riding on horseback.
"Whoosh!"
The ball hits the target steadily!
101 versus 100.
Although Nash is the league's assist leader and has always focused on sorting out the team's offense, as long as he is given a chance, Nash also has the ability to seal his throat with a sword!
"Steve - great job!" Chen Yan shouted at Nash.
Nash also smiled and pointed at Chen Yan.
From a fan's perspective, this goal is entirely Nash's personal ability, but from Nash's perspective, it is clear what just happened. It was Chen Yan's running that disrupted the Nuggets' formation, and he was able to make the shot easily.
Chance.
In these two rounds, Chen Yan used his own restraint to help his teammates.
After returning from the timeout, Chen Yan clearly felt that he had encountered greater defensive intensity. If he was tight on his side, his teammates would naturally be loose on their side.
For the Nuggets, Jr.'s explosion also drove the entire team's offense.
Anthony and Iverson also hit jumpers in the next two rounds.
The Nuggets' shooting percentage began to pick up, and the score remained close until the last 57 seconds.
Denver Nuggets 109:108 Phoenix Suns.
Nuggets ball rights.
Pepsi Center fans stood up to watch the game.
This offensive round may directly affect the final result of the game!
Iverson controlled the ball at the top of the arc, and Anthony and Barnes repeatedly fought in the low post to get stuck.
In the last two minutes of the game, in order to limit Anthony's strong positioning, D'Antoni specially sent in tough guy Barnes.
Iverson did not rashly drop the ball inside. A mistake at this time would be fatal.
At a 60-degree angle outside the right three-point line, Jr. Smith ran out to catch the ball at high speed.
Iverson directed the ball without hesitation.
Jr.'s performance in these few minutes was obvious to everyone in the Nuggets, and Iverson chose to trust him at this critical moment.
The moment Jr. picked up the ball, there was only one thing in his eyes - the basket!
After a feint, Jr leaned forward and took a sharp step in.
Then facing Chen Yan's defense, he forced a pull-out shot at a 45-degree angle on the right side of the free throw line!
Jr’s emergency stop was very sudden!
Although Chen Yan kept up with Jr's footsteps, he didn't attack too hard.
The explosive scoring did not make Chen Yan forget the number of fouls he was carrying.
If you are sent off at this time, all your previous efforts will be wasted!
So Chen Yan adopted a very smart defensive method.
Chen Yan covered Jr. Smith’s eyes with his big hands!
This trick of blind defense was copied from Shane Battier when he played against the Rockets.
Covering one's eyes for defense has no effect on Chen Yan, but that doesn't mean it has no effect on others.
"Clang!"
The next second the sound of iron was struck, and the home fans felt a pang of regret.
Jr missed a key shot under Chen Yan's defense.
The Nuggets generals are not discouraged. The team is still leading by one point. The most important thing right now is to defend well!
The ball hit the neck of the basket and bounced near the free throw line.
Nash took a step back and cleverly grabbed the defensive rebound.
No conduction is required, Nash's hair is pushed forward directly with a flick of his hair!
Chen Yan runs on Nash's flank.
One step forward from the center circle, Nash flicked the ball and found Chen Yan.
Since Nash also has strong shooting ability, the Nuggets did not dare to double-team Chen Yan at will.
The more critical the moment, the more cautious both sides play!
Jr. Smith was very close to him. Chen Yan shot three-pointers like crazy in the fourth quarter. Jr. would not give him a chance to take the shot easily.
Chen Yan judged Jr's defensive intention.
Many times it is more important to judge the opponent's defensive intentions or even skills and talents. When the opponent wants to prevent you from breaking through, you shoot, and when they want to prevent you from shooting, you break out. With the help of such judgment, scoring will often become easier.
Chen Yan did not slow down after receiving the ball, and took a dive to break through Jr. Smith's defense.
Jr reacted quickly and turned around to follow Chen Yan.
He is very good in terms of physical fitness and explosive power, and Jr. is also very physically capable when he comes off the bench.
Accelerating to near the 45-degree angle outside the three-point line, Chen Yan suddenly stepped on the brakes, causing sparks to fly on the floor!
The moment jr raised his hand, Chen Yan threw out [God's Ganpu].
This ball is full of rhythm!
"Whoosh!"
The ball flew in the air for a while and then went straight into the net!
One shot into the soul!
The Nets instantly rippled!
The same angle, the same distance, and different results as the Jr. pullout last round!
The difference is reflected in millimeters!
110 to 109.
With 39 seconds left in the game, the Phoenix Suns completed the lead!
This is also the first time they have taken the lead in this game!
All the Suns fans in front of the TV were excited!
But for the Nuggets and their fans, this is indeed an extremely painful goal.
This feeling is like suppressing the opponent for a whole marathon in a marathon, only to be overtaken in the last 100 meters of sprint.
Although we haven't reached the end yet, it's enough to make us collapse.
After scoring this goal, Chen Yan already scored 21 points in a single quarter like a storm!
