Stoudemire's body tensed in the air, his muscles bulging, and he held the ball with both hands and slammed his hands on the basket, ignoring the blocks of the two and still intending to dunk ......

Ji Guoshi was the most embarrassed, and the first Xiao Si of his 228-pound body was squeezed aside; Ji Guoqiu is not much better, he weighs only 233 pounds, and he is also not the opponent of Xiao Si, who weighs 245 pounds, and can only stop the opponent's slam dunk at the cost of fouls before being knocked away......

Stoudemire saw two big hands on both sides at the same time, and at the last moment, he still retracted his strength and chose to protect himself first, the basketball naturally did not enter the basket, and Xiao Si was pulled from the air by the two of them.

After Ji Guoqiu landed, he kindly helped Stoudemire, and all three of them landed safely.

"Toot!"

The referee blew the whistle, and the foul could not have been more obvious, the question is who to count and the referee needs to think about it.

Stoudemire patted Ji Guoqiu on the shoulder, meaning to thank the other party for helping him.

Ji Guoqiu now has a good reputation among the players in the league, and all the players who have played against him say that he has clean movements and can be called a gentleman on the court. Of course, the other is just the opposite, no one has said that he is good for all the players who have played against Ji Guoyi, small actions, trash talk, and black and ruthless moves......

Even the stars who have never played against him have many enemies with him, such as the German chariot who was publicly called soft by Ji Guosha, and Peter Pan who mentioned sad things want to teach this rookie a good lesson.

The Clippers attacked, and Blaven handed the basketball to Artest, who tried to beat Glen Tehill.

Many people ignore Grant Hill's defensive ability, in fact, Hill's defensive ability is not necessarily inferior to Battier, and his strength is not bad, which can have a certain impact on the beast, coupled with his superb defensive skills, Artest's offensive ability cannot penetrate Hill's defense.

Artest failed to make two consecutive offenses, and the Clippers immediately changed their main attackers, and the whole team began to cover Ji Guoyi without the ball to help him create space for his shots.

Ji Guoshi was depressed to find that it was difficult for his teammates' cover to stop Marion, who was not leaving, and the other party was like smearing glue on him and completely sticking to him.

Looking at the other party's height again, Ji Guoyi felt that it was better to simply play with him with his back.

Halfway through the first quarter, Ji Guoyi singled Marion three times on both wings, and the result was three shots and one hit, Marion can defend one to five positions is not just talking, and Ji Guoyi's contribution on the offensive end is better than nothing. On the contrary, Ji Guoqiu hit two consecutive hooks in the penalty area, although Stoudemire scored 6 points, but also let Ji Guoqiu score 4 points, D'Antoni felt off the court that they seemed to have lost.

Stoudemire performed well on the offensive end today, in addition to making a 1v2 foul on Ji Guoqiu in the first attack, he also used his high breakthrough ability to break through Ji Guoqiu twice in a row. Xiao Si, who is at the peak, can shoot and break through, but it is indeed difficult to defend, and he can face Duncan in the playoffs, who averages nearly 40 points per game, and it is not something that Ji Guoqiu can deal with alone for the time being.

Old Dunleavy wanted to distract the two brothers before the game, but the reality is cruel, the two of them must now defend Xiao Si together, so that the little overlord will not run wild. But even in the face of the double bag, Xiao Si can still get the normal number jù, and it seems that he thinks too much about helping to defend something.

Marion has been going out today, hoping to pull Ji Guoyi to the outside line and give Xiao Si the opportunity to create a one-on-one confrontation with Ji Guoqiu on the inside.

Ji Guoqi was resolutely not fooled by this, and would rather let him shoot three points outside with an outside figure-eight posture than leave the inside line lightly, and was determined to help Ji Guoqiu restrict Stoudemire together.

The score was 10:13, and the Suns led by three points halfway through the first quarter.

D'Antoni called a timeout first, and the mustache wanted to solve the team's interior defense problem, to put it bluntly, he wanted Stoudemire to focus more on the defensive end and not always defend with his eyes.

After the timeout, Ji Guoqiu easily received the basketball again in the low post, Stoudemire did not work hard to grab the position, Ji Guoqiu felt very little defensive pressure, and the last game against Camby was a world of difference.

This time in the face of Stoudemire's defense, Ji Guoqiu, after attracting the outside players to wrap up, passed the ball to the ground without warning, and sent the basketball to Ji Guoyi, who was suddenly inserted into the basket.

Ji Guoqi had used Artest's off-ball cover to temporarily get rid of Marion, and after entering the interior line, he didn't encounter a backup player, because Stoudemire, who was supposed to make up for him, didn't move at all, and was still standing next to Ji Guoqiu, as if the guy hanging on the basket was not his opponent player, so it didn't belong to him.

Old Dunleavy watched and laughed on the sidelines, he had quickly changed the original arrangement after the pause just now, and now the new tactic is to focus on the inside line, focusing on Ji Guoqiu, who is not strong in attack. If Xiao Si's offense can be rated A+, then the defense can only be rated C at least in this game, although Ji Guoqiu's attack ability is not strong, but it is no problem to play a C-level defense.

Ji Guoyi scored his fourth point of the game with a slam dunk, and the two brothers have combined to score 8 points, which is only 1 point less than the inside combination of Xiao Si and Marion, and they don't seem to have suffered too much.

D'Antoni pulled his fingers and calculated, this deal seems to be lost, they hoped before the game that Xiao Si would abuse the Clippers twins, instead of blowing up with the two rookies!

Nash turned around and hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc, and the Son of the Wind, who had been very low-key in the game, fired a cold shot to make the score 12-16.

After the basketball fell into the hoop, the Suns fans at the American Airlines Center immediately erupted into the biggest cheers since the opening of the game, even if Stoudemire started the 1v2 attack, the cheers of the American Airlines Center were not as fierce as the three-point this time, which shows that the highest status in the minds of Suns fans is still the two-time MVP.

The Son of the Wind began to take the initiative to attack, and the Clippers were not only inferior to their opponents on the inside, but the more dangerous position today was still their point guard position, which was the Clippers' lifeline.

Since Nash wants to take the initiative to attack, he naturally will shoot more than one three-pointer, and then with Xiao Si's blocking, Nash chooses to shoot more by himself. He was extremely accurate from mid-range and hit consecutive shots, but the Clippers didn't dare to pinch him, because Nash's shot could turn into a pass at any time, or simply an aerial relay, which was impossible to guard.

After Nash hit three consecutive shots, Dunleavy Sr. had to switch to Black Parker in hopes of using his height to limit Nash.

Nash is known as the first person in the league to take the ball around the circle, he can dribble and shuttle on the opponent's interior as if no man's land, and can always look for a fatal blow in the opponent's heart!

After Black Parker came on the court, he did have some restrictions on Nash's shooting, but the Wind Child soon chose to dribble and break through and enter the Clippers' interior to find his own shooting and passing opportunities.

At 3 minutes and 50 seconds in the first quarter, Nash dribbled into the interior again, pointed east and west, and passed the ball without looking at people, and sent the basketball to Dio, who replaced Marion.

Dio inserted the inside line from the weak side, and the Frenchman was lazy at this time, seeing that he was unguarded, he chose to go to the basket instead of a slam dunk, which was more relaxed.

Ji Guoqiu seemed to have long eyes in the back of his head, originally he had his back to Dior, but at this moment, he instantly turned from the free throw line and threw himself back to the basket, using his excellent bounce to take the lead, stretching out his big hand to press the basketball on the rebound.

"How did he see that he should have his back to the basket?"

Stoudemire was most puzzled by this ball, he had obviously pulled Ji Guoqiu outside, but the Chinese suddenly turned and rushed to the basket, covering Dior's inevitable layup.

"Thanks, Boss."

Ji Guosha was a little careless, and he was got rid of the fast-paced French domestic line, this Dior has outstanding consciousness and a tall ball quotient, although he is a little shorter, but it is very difficult to deal with.

The score was 18:22, and the first quarter was almost over, and the Suns did not open the score.

Ji Guoqiu scored 6 points, Ji Guoqi scored 5 points, and the two had already contributed 11 points together before the first quarter was finished. The Suns' poor defense is not unfounded, and the pressure on both of them on the defensive end is indeed unprecedented, but the offensive end is much easier than the last game against the Nuggets.

Half a minute later, Dunleavy Sr. took advantage of the dead ball to replace the two brothers, and the Suns also replaced Nash and Xiaosi, and the two teams entered a bench battle.

The Suns use a seven-man rotation, Nash, Barbosa, and Ragabel rotate the backcourt, Hill, Dio, and Marion rotate the forward, and Smalls and Naggins get the center, this is D'Antoni's rotation lineup, the mustache likes to use generalists, and the versatile players can get more playing time under him.

The second echelon of the Clippers is far from being an opponent of the Suns, Barbosa is more threatening than Nash in terms of impact ability, plus Raja Bell, Marion, Dio, Nakins, the Suns have no players taller than 210cm on the court, the tallest is Nakins, who is only 205cm tall.

is such a small lineup, and in less than five minutes, the Clippers were all over the ground looking for teeth, and they were almost taken away by the opponent in waves.

The Clippers' bench is also more offensive than defensive, and more choices are outside shots, which is in line with the rhythm of the Suns.

At 8 minutes and 40 seconds in the second quarter, the score was 25:35, and the elder Dunleavy saw that the team was about to be overwhelmed, so he had to send the two brothers and a main force to the court in advance to deal with the Suns' ferocious offensive ability.
