Chapter 175 The Long-lost Victory
The All-Star Game is a key node for teams aiming for the playoffs. Before the All-Star Game, almost all playoff teams will make preparations for the playoffs, including players’ mental state and injury risk assessment , to ensure that players can quickly enter the state of combat readiness after the All-Star Game and sprint for the playoffs.
Therefore, there are very few championship-level teams that will make big deals after the All-Star Game. When the Celtics have won five or six games in a row since the All-Star Game, the Suns are just on the right track. There is no doubt that the Suns are now the one behind!
When the situation is not so clear, the first thing to do is to seize the opportunity and ensure that your team is in the leading position. This is what every strong team intends to do. A slow step is a slow step, although the Spurs are only one ahead of the Suns Winning games, but in the end, it is still unknown whether the Suns can even out this winning gap or even surpass the Spurs. Will the old-fashioned Spurs and Popovich give the Suns this chance?
All the fans of the Suns are very worried. As one of the Spurs' sworn enemies, they have been entangled with the Spurs for two years. One of the best head coaches in the world, his control of the rhythm of the game may not give the Suns this chance, but as long as it is an individual, it will make mistakes. Popovich may not make mistakes, but what about his players?
Is it really impossible to make mistakes?
Everyone watched the Suns chase the Spurs all the way from the first game against the 76ers in March. A wave of seven consecutive victories directly ignited the hot atmosphere of this game. The Suns did well enough. In the first half of the month, they made no mistakes and firmly seized all the opportunities. Although the Spurs did not make mistakes, they looked low-key and formed a sharp contrast with the imposing Suns. People would like to see the Suns complete Great comeback against the Spurs!
But the Spurs have won [-] out of [-] games from the All-Star Game to now, and it seems that they are still so rigorous, like a machine, everyone has their own position, everyone has played How could the rising Spurs give the Suns this chance?
The players of the Suns are holding back their energy to snatch the position that should belong to them. Everyone's nerves are tense. However, after fighting with the Spurs for more than half a month, they still haven't seen a glimmer of hope. Not to mention that the Suns fans are almost desperate, even the Suns players and D'Antoni are about to give up. This will consume too much energy for the players. Just when they were thinking of giving up, the Spurs made a mistake!
Everyone in the Suns watched Garnett beat his chest at the last second when he blocked Duncan's layup and screamed in the locker room. They finally waited for this opportunity, and the Spurs made a mistake!
D'Antoni looked at Popovich's gloomy face on TV, and he couldn't help laughing. He didn't need to ask him to know how bad Popovich was in the mood. The Spurs' tense nerves were finally at this moment It was a little loose and caught by the Celtics. Popovich's strategy was not wrong, but the Spurs' players' touch was really bad. God finally gave the Suns a chance!
"Boys, be quiet!"
D'Antoni clapped his hands vigorously and signaled everyone to gather around. Looking at all the players whose expressions were still full of excitement, he knew that they must win this most authentic Pistons game!
"The Spurs lost, our chance has come!"
"Tell me, how should we play this game!"
Gao Tian saw that D'Antoni, who seldom used his passion to encourage players, was yelling at him regardless of his image, and he knew that there was no suspense in this game. The Suns, who were going all out, would not be afraid of any team, even here It's Detroit!
Stoudemire, who was standing in the middle circle, could clearly hear the audience boos all over the sky, and he could clearly see the ferocious expressions of the audience in the front row. He could also clearly hear his own heartbeat and breathing. The world at this moment was in front of his eyes. Seeing the ball thrown into the air by the referee, he jumped up vigorously, and slapped the ball into Nash's hands under the horrified eyes of Rasheed Wallace who took off at the same time. Nash made a long pass In the hands of Gao Tian who was about to fall, Gao Tian who received the ball jumped away from Hamilton who was defending him, and directly dunked!
D'Antoni looked at this familiar tactic excitedly. He didn't know what to say for a while. Stotts beside him also had a complicated expression. It had been a long time since they had seen this kind of cooperation, and they had finally experienced so much. Despite the difficulties, they are on the right path again. Stotts suddenly felt that even if they did not reach their ideal position in the end, this hopeful team would not give up easily!
The defense of the Pistons can be said to be watertight. Last time against the Pistons, the Suns used their fiery touch to shoot the Pistons off the horse. However, the Suns today have to say that the handfeel is extremely poor, as if they were infected by the Spurs , Even the open three-pointer is a bang, even Gao Tian is helpless.
Looking at the excited teammates, Gao Tian also had some headaches. The degree of excitement in the body is inversely proportional to the feeling of the hand. Seeing them like this, I am afraid that the game will not feel very good. It is not easy to play a game without shooting!
Especially against a defensive team like the Pistons, the Suns still lag behind the Pistons after three quarters, and the point difference has remained at about [-] points. Now, he frowned and thought about how to solve this problem. Watching Gao Tian pass Hamilton with one step and rush in to meet Wallace with a powerful dunk, his eyes lit up instantly. This solution is far away. The horizon is close at hand!
He didn't use Gao Tian for a long time before he realized, what to look for, isn't Gao Tian their hard solution!
Seeing Gao Tian unreasonably holding the ball into the inside and scoring against the Pistons, D'Antoni smiled in relief. Gao Tian's greatest significance to the Suns is this time, especially when Gao Tian attracts the D'Antoni even took the lead in applauding after the dunk was given to Stoudemire. Such a Sun is definitely the strongest team in his heart!
After Gao Tian destroyed the Pistons' defense with his unreasonable James style of play, the Suns overtook the score in an instant, and firmly maintained the advantage until the end. The Suns defeated the Pistons 112:106 and successfully overtook the Spurs and regained the Western Conference. Second place!
At the end of the game, Nash and Ricky Davis rushed to Gao Tian's side, including Stoudemire, and they all surrounded them with laughter. They celebrated this rare victory with laughter. The taste of such a victory is So nice and exciting and joyful for them.
D'Antoni watched this scene with a smile. His eyes passed through the crowds and looked at Dallas and San Antonio. He just wanted to tell everyone that the former sun is back!
