NBA: The strongest physical talent, the inside is king

As the referee threw the ball into the air, the game officially began!

Wang Ke jumped up and easily won the jump ball!

Gary Payton received the ball from Wang Ke and slowly controlled the ball across half court.

At this moment, Gary Payton seemed to have really turned into an old man, as if he would be in trouble if he dribbled a little faster!

Nash's defense against Gary Payton was not tight!

In Gary Payton's view, it was full of loopholes!

If it was Gary Payton in his prime, he could pass by Nash in one step at this time!

However, Gary Payton did not have such an idea at this time!

In this game, Bernie Bickerstaff repeatedly reminded him to control the rhythm!

To put it bluntly and simply, try to consume more than 14 seconds in the offensive round before attacking the basket!

The Suns' defensive formation was very loose!

This obviously meant to lure the Bobcats to attack!

It doesn't matter whether it goes in or not!

Only if the Bobcats attack faster can the Suns speed up the game!

The run-and-gun tactics can be played smoothly!

Gary Payton was unmoved!

He kept consuming the offensive round time until only the last 7 seconds were left before passing the ball to Wang Ke who came out to receive the ball!

When Wang Ke received the ball in the high position, there were still 5 seconds left in the offensive round time!

But for Wang Ke, it was enough!

After making a triple threat leisurely, Wang Ke chose to pull up and shoot at Stoudemire!

Stoudemire is 2.08 meters tall, and the height difference with Wang Ke is a bit big!

After Wang Ke jumped up, Stoudemire found that he could not interfere with Wang Ke's shooting too much!

"Swish!"

Wang Ke's hand shape is perfect!

Steady hit!

In the new season, Wang Ke's biggest improvement is that his mid-range shots have become more and more stable!

In addition to the significant improvement in mid-range shooting ability under crazy training, the presence of Ben also ensures that the Bobcats have a very good frontcourt rebound!

This makes Wang Ke shoot without psychological pressure!

Ben can also perfectly demonstrate his ability to rebound in the frontcourt, and can directly dunk or dunk twice from time to time!

In this way, Ben's offensive ability can also be maximized!

It is not that Ben has no effect on the offensive end!

It is still very necessary for the core players to give up their sweet spots and eat the relatively difficult scoring areas of their teammates!

Because once it is done, the offense of the entire team can be revitalized!

After letting each player feel involved on the offensive end, they will be more motivated when they return to the defensive end!

The overall strength of the team will be greatly improved!

2:0!

Wang Ke scored the first blood for the Bobcats!

When Wang Ke just shot, except Ben and Wang Ke, the other three Bobcats players had already quickly returned to defense in advance!

Ben is fighting for the frontcourt rebound!

Wang Ke is assisting Ben after he grabs the frontcourt rebound!

Wang Ke and Ben are both as fast and flexible as the outside players. If they really go back to defense, they will not be a drag!

The Suns attack.

Nash dribbled across half court after receiving the ball, frowning slightly!

Since last season, every time Nash controls the ball, he will subconsciously look for fast break opportunities!

This involves the fast running of teammates and whether Nash can pass the ball in time!

And this time, Nash found that no matter Marion, Stoudemire or Raja Bell, they were not able to run out of space at all!

Nash naturally couldn't find a chance to pass the ball quickly!

Then, the next step is to enter the positional battle!

And D'Antoni doesn't have much accomplishments in positional battles!

It's basically just one trick, that is, relying on Nash and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll to create opportunities for quick scoring!

Nash and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll is somewhat different from the classic pick-and-roll combination of Stockton and Malone!

Stockton and Malone's pick-and-roll cooperation is the starting point of a series of complex tactical runs by the Jazz!

The purpose is to allow Stockton to quickly advance to the free throw line, and a series of opportunities created by the short misalignment after the pick-and-roll!

The pick-and-roll between Nash and Stoudemire is purely for quick shots!

Stoudemire quickly came to the three-point line at this time, made a false block, and then quickly rushed to the basket!

Nash was about to pass the ball to Stoudemire for a dunk, but suddenly found that Wang Ke did not chase Stoudemire, but double-teamed him!

"0h! Sh**t!"

Nash cursed in a low voice!

Wang Ke's huge body has completely enveloped Nash, and Nash's passing vision is seriously blocked!

Nash is alreadyIt was a little hard to see Stoudemire's running position!

However, relying on the tacit understanding with Stoudemire, Nash still chose to take the risk and pass the ball out!

A ground pass!

Because Nash knew that if he hesitated a little longer, he would be completely sandwiched by Wang Ke and Gary Payton!

Nash's pass passed Wang Ke, and Wang Ke also exclaimed!

However, the accuracy of the pass was greatly affected after all!

"Snap!"

Don't forget that the Bobcats have Big Ben in the inside!

Big Ben accurately intercepted and completed a steal!

"Slow down the pace!"

"Don't rush!"

After stealing like this, the players will rush forward like a conditioned reflex!

It's not impossible to play a quick counterattack, but it will fall into the rhythm of the Suns!

So, continue to control the rhythm!

Wang Ke and Gary Payton shouted to their teammates almost at the same time!

"Hey!"

Big Ben passed the ball to Gary Payton. He was really ready to rush just now!

Gary Payton slowly controlled the ball across half court, and then continued to control the ball outside the three-point line to waste time!

This style of play made the Suns players and fans anxious!

This is obviously not the rhythm they are used to!

"What the hell! You're wasting time just at the beginning of the game? What a waste of time!"

"That's right! You didn't have a chance to fast break just now, and you had to play inside, right!"

"Damn it! This game is so uncomfortable to watch! The league should ban such games that deliberately delay time!"

In the audience, more and more Suns fans can't stand it anymore!

Which game before didn't the Suns play smoothly?

And in this game, the Suns are suffering from a slow-paced game!

Gary Payton consumed the time of the offensive round to the last 5 seconds, and handed the ball to Wang Ke again!

Because this game is extremely rhythmic, Wang Ke directly became the main attacker of the Bobcats!

To finish in the last few seconds, other players of the Bobcats may not be able to do it well!

After Wang Ke received the ball, he made another pull-up shot in almost the same way!

"Swish!"

Another goal!

The defensive pressure that Stoudemire put on Wang Ke was really too low!
