At the beginning of the game, ‘Shifo’ mainly assisted his teammates in attacking.
Duncan blocked Chen Yan and Finley took the opportunity to go around the three-point line to catch the ball.
Stoudemire was a step too slow in changing defense. This kind of defensive change is not what he is good at.
Finley used the space to make a decisive three-pointer from the bottom corner!
Michael Finley is the second player on the Spurs in three-point attempts this season, averaging 4.4 three-pointers per game, second only to Ginobili who averages 5.3 three-pointers per game.
But this time he failed to seize the opportunity.
"Clang!"
When the basketball is hit, the side edge of the rim pops out!
Stoudemire and Chen Yan took off at the same time. Chen Yan was faster and grabbed the defensive rebound before Stoudemire!
After landing, Chen Yan strode through the defensive players and quickly pushed the ball forward!
"Get back faster! Don't take action, pay attention to your position!" Popovich commanded from the sidelines in a loud voice.
Even if Popovich doesn't call for a Spurs player, no one will rush to grab it. Chen Yan's ball-handling skills are famous, and he will enter his highlight reel if he is not careful.
The Spurs still adopted the same strategy as in the previous games, giving up offensive rebounds to achieve the effect of retreating in time.
Bowen, Parker, Oberto and Duncan were the first to retreat to the Spurs' defensive half.
Finley couldn't retreat immediately because he had just shot a three-pointer from the corner.
Chen Yan continues to hold the ball in the middle.
Nash appeared on Chen Yan's left side.
This season after Chen Yan joined, the Suns' fast break has also changed. The Suns can hold the ball from one point in the fast break to two, which makes the Suns' fast break tactics richer.
Nash is running without the ball at a 45-degree angle to the left.
Parker immediately followed. Everyone knows Nash's outside threat. He is a point in the Suns that cannot be left empty!
Everyone thinks that Chen Yan will slow down and wait for his teammates, because this is the most reasonable offensive option.
However, in the next second, Chen Yan instead of slowing down, his shoulders sank and he accelerated past Bowen!
Explosive acceleration!
Eat it naked and raw!
The two insiders, Oberto and Duncan, were already in position at this time, and they were preparing to give Chen Yan a sandwich burger.
Chen Yan directly threw out [Demon Shadow Trail]!
Chen Yan took agile steps and drew a z-shape in the penalty area, flashing through the gap between the two!
Oberto made a backhand pull, but instead of pulling the ball, he pulled Chen Yan's arm.
Chen Yan lost his balance and threw the ball into the air with one hand!
Chen Yan is very good at this kind of aerial work!
The moment the ball is released, [Juggling End] is triggered!
"biu~biu~"
When the referee blew the whistle, the basketball rolled around on the edge of the basket and then fell into the net!
"and-one!"
Chen Yan yelled and raised his arms, trying to use body language to arouse the fans' emotions!
The fans at America West Arena were also very enthusiastic and gave Chen Yan the warmest cheers!
"What a ball! Chen Yan's counterattack at the beginning was very resolute!" Zhang Liangli shouted excitedly in the studio. "In this round, the four Spurs players have returned to the defensive half, but Chen Yan still rushed into the paint.
This is a fast break that is not a fast break!" Yu Jia shouted from the side.
Zhang Liji nodded: "This is the embodiment of personal ability!"
"Whoa!"
Standing on the free throw line, Chen Yan made the extra free throw!
After scoring five points in a row, the cheers on the scene went up a notch!
Spurs offensive possession.
The moment Duncan held the ball inside, the Suns double-teamed him immediately.
Duncan couldn't turn around, but his good vision still helped him score the ball to the limit.
This is the Suns' defensive strategy tonight. They keep the Spurs' offense as far away from the paint as possible. If they are killed by the Spurs' outside role players, then they will accept it.
Bowen got an open space at a 60-degree angle on the right side and shot a three-pointer!
"Clang!"
Still missed!
The Spurs have missed two open three-pointers in a row at the beginning.
On the sidelines, Popovich's expression darkened.
On the court, the Suns counterattacked again.
Chen Yan held the ball in the middle and pushed quickly. The Spurs gave up the fight for offensive rebounds and retreated to the backcourt.
This scene seems familiar to the last round!
The only difference is that the Spurs' defensive strategy seems to have changed.
"The Spurs' formation has changed to a 2-3 zone defense. This is to limit Chen Yan's impact. Chen Yan has a very strong desire to rush the frame tonight. He has already attacked the Spurs' inside line for two consecutive rounds in the beginning!" The sharp-eyed Yu Jia immediately noticed it.
Spurs' changes on defense.
After half the game, Chen Yan also found that his field of vision had become unusually empty.
Chen Yan immediately realized that this was for his own sake.
Giving up three points to limit your own breakthrough?
Chen Yan said there is such a good thing?
At the logo in the center circle two meters outside the three-point line, Chen Yan shot a super long three-pointer while shooting with a bow!
Chen Yan's actions are more decisive compared to g3 and g4. The benefits brought by [Status Improvement Card] to Chen Yan are not only the improvement of status, but also confidence and confidence!
Bowen, who retreated to near the three-point line, suddenly stopped when he saw Chen Yan's move, raised his hand and rushed forward!
The movement seemed to be in place, but in fact it was two positions away from Chen Yan and did not cause any substantial interference to his shot.
The basketball spins in the air at high speed and then penetrates the net!
"Whoa!"
8:0!
Absolutely hollow!
The most beautiful sound in the world rang out at the American West Arena!
The home fans were extremely excited. From the perspective of a viewer, this three-point show is still as shocking no matter how many times they watch it!
On major domestic sports forums, netizens are as happy as fans at the American West Arena.
"Hold the grass! Another long and accurate three-pointer!"
"This three-pointer looks so cool!"
"Chen Yan has been shooting three-pointers like this in every game in the past few games. Does this mean he has used long-range three-pointers as a conventional weapon?"
"Chen Yan scored 8 points in a row at the beginning, let's have a big explosion in this game!"
"The Spurs' defense today was a bit substandard!"
"It's not that the defense is substandard, it's that Chen Yan's offense is unreasonable!"
"Unreasonable breakthrough, unreasonable three points!"
As fans have said, what the Spurs fear most is the type of player who plays unreasonably but can score.
Because the Spurs are the ancestors of reasonableness, it is difficult to take advantage by playing reasonable with them. The Spurs can defend along your trajectory.
But if the offensive players use another extreme method and fight them without following the routine xjb, then the Spurs will be very uncomfortable. This is why the Spurs are so reluctant to face Kobe.
Chen Yan is also the same type of player. Once he is in good condition, all his offensive options are based on a moment of inspiration. Even he himself does not know which offensive method or offensive route he will choose at the next moment. Of course, the Spurs are even more
