James Harden was 5 of 11, not to mention the shooting percentage was very high, and the level of touch porcelain was also very high, with 17 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.

This efficiency value is the highest for the Thunder in this game.

But it didn't work, and the Thunder still lost without any suspense.

Of course, there are poor states after consecutive back-to-backs, but more often than not, the Thunder's tactics are a little too pitiful, and almost all of them test the players' own performance.

On February 11, the Kings played the Suns away.

The Suns core is still Stephen Nash. This season, the Suns' record is still up and down.

Compared with the weak team, the Suns played a good game, and the strength was not so weak, which always attracted fans.

Two-time regular season MVP Stephen Nash is one of the best point guards in the league.

Even at this age, Nash's experience, passing and shooting ability are still among the best in the league.

When Qin Yang came to the Suns, he had a private meal with Nash.

After eating, take a break, and the game officially begins.

The league is playing game after game and has been busier this season with little to no break.

The Suns roster is not so good, and with the departure of the likes of Stoudemire and Marion, the strength has weakened significantly.

After the Kings won on a winning streak, everyone thought the game was a nine-ten.

But at the end of the first quarter of the game, Coach Van Gundy sent off the thunder:

"I told everybody, don't rush, pay attention to the time consumption, consume time, they are the strongest team in the league, don't bombard them."

In the first quarter, the Kings turned out to be behind, much to the annoyance of Coach Van Gundy.

Coach Van Gundy is such an upright boy:

"Bruce, I think you know what you have to do!"

"Yes Coach, I promise!"

Qin Yang replied with some shame, "The first section is my mistake. ”

Qin Yang said so, and Coach Van Gundy did not pursue it.

In the first quarter, the Kings played really messed up.

Qin Yang thought that the Kings had a stronger lineup and had advantages both inside and outside, so he directly accelerated his speed and played fast offense.

But when it comes to such a fight, it's not like that at all.

Fast offense requires a point guard with strong organizational ability, and Qin Yang can do it.

But when others are on fast break, the offensive options are too poor.

The fast attack and artillery bombardment turned into blind ** fighting, which is very uncomfortable.

Especially Cousins.

It stands to reason that Cousins crushes the opponent's interior line and can score no matter how he plays, but as long as Cousins catches the ball when he is fast-breaking, he is making all kinds of inappropriate passes and unreasonable high-dimensional shots.

Consecutive mistakes and irons directly opened the score.

The Suns' offense was like a tide, attacking in waves, and the Kings' defensive formation was not done well at all, and it was spent.

The first section is like this, Qin Yang has a lot of responsibility.

In the second quarter, Qin Yang put down his mentality and played a half-court offense with the Suns with peace of mind.

As a result, the two played very differently, one was flying with the ball, and the battle would definitely be resolved in seven seconds, and the other was consuming, striving for rebounds and offensive opportunities little by little, and striving to score every ball.

At this time, the gap between the two teams came out.

The Suns are weaker.

The Kings have a stronger defensive lineup and rebounding advantage.

In the second quarter, the team reversed the score.

In the third quarter, Qin Yang went off the court, and the team was controlled by Grant Hill and David West, and Livingston, as a point guard, was actually half a point guard.

Grant Hill made a light crossover, using the rhythm to break through and then pass directly to West, who shot from mid-range and hit it with ease.

The combination of the two veterans caused cheers away from Phoenix.

This is something that Qin Yang has never obtained.

After all, Grant Hill has contributed several years here, and the fans have a lot of respect for Grant Hill.

It wasn't a tough game, but after the advantage of the game was confirmed, the Kings won steadily.

The Suns didn't struggle either.

This is good.

But for the Suns, with that kind of atmosphere and tenacity, it's hard to win a championship, and Stephen Nash knows that.

That's why Stephen Nash is caught up in trade rumors.

It's not that Stephen Nash doesn't like Phoenix, it's not that Phoenix doesn't like Stephen Nash, it's just that he can't win the championship here.

Nash wants to win the championship in his lifetime.

It's as simple as that.

After the win against the Suns, the Kings traveled to Chicago to face the Bulls.

Back to back again.

Only this time, the Bulls lost Derrick Rose.

After arriving in Chicago this time, the Chicago media did not mock Qin Yang, and the only thing they could do was to remember Derrick Rose.

In just three years, Rose has become one of the league's hottest superstars, with the Chicago Bulls as their new icon after Michael Jordan.

Unfortunately, he was seriously injured.

This kind of cruciate ligament tear injury has a great impact on the players, and many players have greatly reduced their form after this injury, and they have not shown the style before the injury.

Although Derrick Rose is optimistic that this is not a problem and that the injury will not hit him, the facts are the facts.

Ross's future is in doubt.

Pre-game.

The Kings are resting again.

"David West and Ray Allen are no longer playing, and the team is giving Klay Thompson, Cousins and Hassan Whiteside a chance, you two for a long time."

Coach Van Gundy rotated Ray Allen and David West, and Qin Yang was unwilling.

Although the Bulls lost Rose, it was not easy to play.

When Rose was there, the Bulls were strong, and when Rose wasn't there, the Bulls weren't weak.

Coach Van Gundy was a little careless, but this was Coach Van Gundy's own arrangement, and Qin Yang couldn't oppose it at every turn.

David West and Ray Allen have played a number of games in a row and are getting older and need a break, while Cousins has not played enough minutes this season and needs time to develop.

As for Klay Thompson, even more so.

Hassan Whiteside has improved as he trains within the squad this season.

Compared to the laziness when he first entered the league, Hassan has shown a certain fighting spirit, and Coach Van Gundy has also given him a chance.

At the beginning of the game, the Bulls played hard at home.

The Bulls' Derrick Rose has been outstanding in recent seasons, and a lot of it doesn't go to Rose, but that's not true.

The overall strength of the Bulls players is really strong.

It's all in the year of play, and it's different from the Kings.

At the beginning of the game, the Bulls fought both ends of the floor.

The weakness of the Kings at this time appeared, Hassan Whiteside was full of physical fitness, but the defensive end was too easy to jump, and in the first quarter, Hassan Whiteside fouled three consecutive fouls in 6 minutes after coming off the bench for Darko, and directly sent the Bulls to serve.

Klay Thompson's shot selection on the outside was problematic, and he really shot directly after receiving the ball many times.

The teammates were completely unprepared.

There was no such setup in the team's playbook, everyone was not prepared, and after the shot was made, the Bulls got the rebounds and the chances.

At the end of the first quarter, the Kings trailed by five points on the road.
