Chapter 444 Three happy days, security guards work overtime
70 to 79, the Suns already led by 9 points after this quarter.
Chen Yan scored 30 points in 39 minutes for the team in this quarter. In this quarter, he almost carried the team alone.
D'Antoni used a classic tactic during the break and gave the ball to Chen Yan.
"Chen, continue to take shots in the fourth quarter and keep the firepower up. Steve, try to push the rhythm faster! We have to create more shooting opportunities in the fast break! Amare, play more pick-and-rolls with Chen, after the pick-and-roll
Don't go down, just move near the free throw line and try to help him create space for breakthrough."
"clear!"
Chen Yan, Nash and Stoudemire shouted at the same time.
D'Antoni's tactical arrangement in the final quarter is very simple, which is to focus on Chen Yan, who has the best touch.
Nash has no objection. He always likes to play the role of serving his teammates. Stoudemire is also willing to be a green leaf. Chen Yan's scoring ability has long won the trust of his teammates, and tonight the whole team feels terrible. They want to win and use the ball.
Leaving it to Chen Yan is the simplest and most correct choice.
The game started quickly in the fourth quarter.
The Suns attacked first, Nash dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Chen Yan pushed away James Posey and went around to the three-point line to catch the ball.
Ariza was badly beaten by Chen Yan in the third quarter. Phil Jackson asked him to rest on the bench in the final quarter and replaced him with James Posey.
James Posey's defensive style is different from Ariza's. He is not known for his movement speed on the defensive end, but his defensive experience is very sophisticated, his predictions are accurate, and his defensive actions are also extremely "fierce".
Defending in front and double-teaming in advance are the defensive forms he often uses, but he does not dare to use these defensive skills easily when defending Chen Yan, because once the bypassing fails, it means a complete loss of position, and Chen Yan's speed will never give him a chance.
Any chance he has of chasing back.
After Chen Yan received the ball from the wing, James Posey stuck to it like a piece of candy. Another characteristic of James Posey's defense is tenacity. He can keep fighting with offensive players until the opponent is exhausted.
All.
Chen Yan called for a pick-and-roll. The Lakers had too many outstanding defensive players on the outside. He couldn't open up and fight his opponent 1v1 every round. This is the NBA, not a street court.
Chen Yan started his crotch and walked towards the top of the arc. James Posey was blocked by Stoudemire. Camby cautiously came up to change defense. When Chen Yan saw that Camby had just stepped on with his left foot, he immediately levitated the ball with his left hand and made a gesture to shoot.
Camby wanted to step forward and block, but he restrained himself. In the third quarter, he was deceived by Chen Yan with this trick. Camby is not the kind of player who doesn't have a long memory.
When Chen Yan saw Canby let him go, he directly lifted the floating ball.
Pretend to worship Buddha, but really worship!
Chen Yan said that he was not so religious in every round. The floating ball did not increase the difficulty of the shot, but made the shot look more rhythmic.
The basketball hit the back edge and bounced into the net!
The sword falls from the start of the hand!
70 to 82.
After the ball was hit, the fans understood that Chen Yan had continued his touch in the third quarter.
The momentum at the Suns' home court was so high that most fans stopped sitting to watch the game and stood up chanting "defense."
Chen Yan is attached to James Posey on the outside. James Posey has no ball-handling ability but is good at outside shooting. As long as he is not left open, he is basically no threat on the offensive end.
The Lakers did not give the ball to Kobe to attack, but played a triangle offense. After some teamwork, Garnett made a layup under the basket.
The 'Wolf King''s shooting percentage tonight was very impressive, but he still won't be soft on goals like this that deserve to be scored.
When the Suns attacked, Chen Yan originally wanted to play without the ball, but James Posey's defensive moves were too big and he kept making small moves behind Chen Yan, which annoyed Chen Yan.
After catching the ball at the top of the arc, Chen Yan grabbed the ball with his right hand and put it behind him, and waved his left hand to signal his teammates to pull away.
He's going to start playing solo!
"mvp!"
"mvp!"
"mvp!"
The fans shouted slogans excitedly when they saw this scene.
The noise from the home fans affected James Posey, who repeatedly told himself that Chen Yan had nothing to fear and was just a second-year rookie. This was a way for him to brainwash himself and force himself to concentrate.
James Posey was under great psychological pressure, and Chen Yan was just like usual. He couldn't even hear the noisy scene in his ears, and focused all his attention on how to handle the ball.
Chen Yan reached behind his crotch, switched the dribbler to his left hand and paused for a moment.
Another floating ball!
Chen Yan locked his eyes on the basket, leaned his left hand slightly toward his body, and looked like he was shooting from the outside.
James Posey quickly raised his hand to take a step forward. No one's three-pointer on this court could be released by Chen Yan.
James Posey's attack was not too fierce, but Chen Yan was keenly aware of his center of gravity shifting forward, and changed his direction to pass him.
The ball looked easy. Chen Yan did not accelerate at all, relying on perfect rhythm and time difference.
Chen Yan cut in along the middle. Camby let go of Stoudemire and stepped forward to cover. Kobe on the other side was also ready to let go of Laga Bell and come up.
While Chen Yan was walking, he circled the ball behind his back. While doing this, his eyes were locked on Laga Bell who was ambushing outside the three-point line. Kobe quickly took a step back. Camby's attention was also attracted by Chen Yan's action.
The next second, Chen Yan suddenly sent the ball forward with his left hand and passed it to the unmarked Stoudemire.
Sound east and hit a Western-style pass!
Chen Yan's deceptive eyes and fake actions deceived everyone on the Lakers.
After receiving the ball, Stoudemire adjusted his steps, held the tripod under the basket, and dunked the ball with both hands!
"This ball was handled very reasonably!" Zhang Lili shouted his famous saying.
However, the fans don’t want to see Chen Yan fight reasonably. They like to see Chen Yan do it on top of others, preferably two or three, so that it is more enjoyable to watch. But Chen Yan is more thinking about how to win.
ball.
The Lakers attacked and continued the triangle tactics. After Fisher received Kobe's pass, he made a three-pointer from the bottom corner.
After the goal, the Lakers retreated quickly, and the Suns continued to play positional warfare.
After Chen Yan had a fight with James Posey, he went around the corner to catch the ball. Fighting with James Posey every round was very exhausting, so Chen Yan's offense had to be streamlined.
The moment he caught the ball, Chen Yan made a crossover, dodged half of his body, and then directly made his iconic drift pull-up!
James Posey stretched out his hand symbolically. It was almost impossible to interfere with Chen Yan with this ball.
"Whoa!"
James Posey didn't look back. The sound of the net being brushed and the cheers from the fans instantly made him imagine the basketball entering the net.
The fans were shouting Chen Yan's name, and the girl in the audience was also shouting. Chen Yan's appearance on the field fascinated her.
Swift was thinking that if he played so well tonight, he should give him some reward when he gets back.
The Lakers attacked again, but this time their triangle offense failed. Garnett's intention of back-up and outside was too obvious, but Chen Yan started it early and interrupted it.
The cheers of "mvp" rang out again at the scene, and Director Xu exclaimed: "Now it's not just about offense, even when defending, the fans are calling Chen Yan 'mvp!'"
Zhang Li said with a smile: "Chen Yan has completely conquered the fans in Phoenix. I was lucky enough to go to Phoenix last year. I found that the basketball atmosphere in that city is very strong. There are people wearing Chen Yan's jerseys everywhere on the court and even on the street." Fans, there are also big posters of Chen Yan on the wall. Some very young foreign children can even say "hello" to me in Chinese. This is a reflection of Chen Yan's influence. However, all this happened before the Suns won the championship. This season his popularity has obviously reached a higher level."
While Zhang Lili and Director Xu were chatting and laughing, Chen Yan scored in a fast break. Phil Jackson had no choice but to call a timeout. He could not be called satisfied with the team's performance.
The Lakers' use of the triangle offense to score consecutive goals at the beginning of the final quarter was like a return to form. The Lakers' overall shooting percentage was still stretched tonight, but there was no improvement after the timeout. Halfway through the final quarter, the game lost suspense.
Chen Yan was replaced in the last 4 minutes and 58 seconds. The fans stood up and applauded. His statistics were also fixed at 51 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 steals. 40 of the 51 points were scored in the second half. .....
In the end, 101 to 89, the Phoenix Suns defeated their opponents on this special night.
The fans cheered heartily in their seats. Nothing could make fans happier than defeating their old enemy at home in the Christmas game!
For Chen Yan, tonight is a night of three blessings. In addition to winning the Christmas battle, Chen Yan's new shoes and new songs will be released on this day.
Everyone in this arena seemed very happy, except for the administrators and security guards. Kobe would have to practice extra time when he lost, which also meant that they had to work overtime voluntarily.
