After nearly two days of devil training, on November 26, the Nuggets faced the challenge of the Phoenix Suns, the opponent they had encountered in the preseason, at home.
In the training session on game day, the Nuggets players noticed some changes from normal days. Wash Leonard, Chris Anderson, Ryan Bowen and Mark Pope did not appear in the team's lineup. middle.
And not long after, the players were also informed that the team had a transaction.
Bowen and Pope have already gone to Philadelphia, and the team has also welcomed new member Kyle Korver. This three-point shooter showed good three-point shooting ability in the training session, which made the Nuggets The players were full of praise. After all, they were just two fringe players, so not many people cared.
Compared with Pope and Bowen, Anderson's departure made all the Nuggets players feel a sense of regret. Even Anthony was a little reluctant to leave. From now on, the Californian will never be seen performing magic tricks that make people laugh on the plane. .
However, because of Leonard's contract, Anderson has not yet gone to New York. During training, he came to the team and said goodbye to the players one by one. The Nuggets players were reluctant to leave, and Nene, a player with a similar personality to Anderson, was even worse. A little bit of hugging my head and crying.
"But the NBA is the NBA, and players are just commodities. After saying goodbye to Anderson, they put their energy into preparing for the evening game.
The Suns' performance this season is also unsatisfactory. Compared with the trend of entering the playoffs last season, this season can only be regarded as unsatisfactory. Before this game, they only achieved a record of 6 wins and 7 losses. In the competition The fierce Western Conference is in the bottom position.
What¡¯s even worse is that the team¡¯s three main players, Marbury, Marion and Stoudemire, seem to have fallen into internal strife, with faint signs of competing for the top spot among themselves.
But compared with the Suns, the Nuggets are not much better. Although they just defeated the Western Conference powerhouse Mavericks, their record is a pitiful 4 wins and 7 losses, which is even worse than the Suns.
Overall, this is a battle between the weakest teams in the Western Conference.
However, this game cannot be said to be uninteresting. The new head coach of the Nuggets, Mike D'Antoni, is a former assistant coach of the Suns. This is the first time he faces his old club. How can he lead the team? Quite eye-catching.
Moreover, Anthony scored 26 points in his last comeback game. In this year's scoring list, he ranked in the top four with an average of 26.5 points per game. In front of him are the famous Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson and Tracy McGrady, who reached such a high position in the scoring list as rookies, naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Perhaps it is precisely because of Anthony's strong performance that the stadium was already packed early in a game against a weak team. After witnessing the team's miraculous comeback against the Mavericks in the last game, fans are obviously full of hope for the future of the Nuggets. expect.
The Nuggets' starting lineup has not changed from the previous one. Miller and Barry are still on the back line, Anthony and Nene are on the forward line, and Camby is still at the center.
However, the Suns have undergone a slight change compared with the preseason. Joe Johnson has successfully entered the starting lineup. The starting five are Marbury, Johnson, Marion, Stoudemire and Jack Waugh. Skull.
After a short warm-up, all the dual-method starters came on stage.
Anthony looked extremely focused from the beginning. From the preparations before the game, he could feel that D'Antoni was a bit nervous. After all, he had conflicts with Frank Johnson. After all, it was the first time he faced his old club. I understand and understand that this game is of great significance to D'Antoni, so he must go all out from the beginning.
It was Camby and Voskull who still jumped the ball. Using his super high wingspan, Camby once again gave the Nuggets the opportunity to attack first without any suspense.
Miller controlled the ball, and the Nuggets players quickly fell into the frontcourt, and then started a quick pick-and-roll without the ball.
With the devilish training in the past two days, their physical reactions have improved a lot than before, and their tactical awareness has also improved a lot. At this time, Miller is holding the ball in the high post, and other players' pick-and-rolls can be said to be Get in place quickly.
Anthony slipped along the baseline, and Camby blocked Marion with a strong pick-and-roll. After the substitution, Nene then set a pick-and-roll for Anthony, and Anthony did not stop there. He directly blocked Stoudemire who had switched to guard. He was pulled to the outside, and then he set up an off-ball pick-and-roll for Barry. Barry took advantage of the situation and moved inside.Line cut.
At this time, one of the Suns' insiders was blocked by Nene, and the other was pulled outside the three-point line by Anthony. After Barry entered the inside, it can be said that everything was smooth sailing, and Miller's through pass was also accurately passed.
Barry, who received the pass, easily reached the basket and scored.
The training tactics were fully implemented, and the Nuggets easily scored in the first round.
The offense in the first round showed the results of the Nuggets' training and also showed how poor the Suns' defense was.
However, although the Suns' defense is poor, their offensive firepower is indeed not weak. The five players on the field, except for center Voskull, the other four positions are all capable of strong attack. Looking back on the round, after a few simple passes, Johnson Using Stoudemire's pick-and-roll also relied on Barry to force a layup.
Both teams used bombardment tactics. The shooting percentages of both teams were extremely high at the beginning. The back-and-forth offensive rounds were very lively and enjoyable for the fans to watch.
After only two minutes of fighting, the two sides actually tied at 10:10!
The commentators for this game are old acquaintances Barkley and Kenny Smith.
"Hey, Charles, I didn't expect that today we would be commentating on the game between the Nuggets and the Suns. We are really destined." Smith saw the heated play on the court, but there were no particularly exciting scenes, and couldn't help but chat with Barkley. stand up.
"Haha, yes, but now I can't wait to commentate on the Nuggets' game. Just two days ago, Irvin also enjoyed it here. The Nuggets defeated the Mavericks in an upset. Melo Performing a pull-up dunk, this has been a hot headline in the past two days." Backus talked while stroking his big bald head.
"Speaking of Melo, he is really the most talked-about rookie this year. He defeated the defending champion Spurs with a blockbuster in his first stop, then tied Chamberlain's record. He was injured in a fight in the locker room for a Brazilian model. Now he leads the team to win the Western Conference title as soon as he comes back. The Mavericks reached fourth place in the scoring list. The last player to have such a performance, I can only think of Allen Iverson. Even Kobe Bryant's rookie season was not so dazzling. Passed." Smith also immediately brought the topic to Anthony.
"Haha, Melo is now more popular than LeBron James of the same period. Compared to this, I am more looking forward to what kind of dunks Melo will perform in the game. Nelles has made statistics before, and the well-known Melo dunked almost all of them," Backus said with a laugh.
"Beep!"
At this moment, the referee on the sidelines suddenly signaled the Nuggets to pause.
"Hey, timeout so early?" Smith looked at the game time. Only two and a half minutes had passed in the first quarter, and the two teams were tied at 12:12. He couldn't figure out what D'Antoni's purpose was in calling the timeout.
"When we are on defense, people are pressing forward! Don't let them catch the ball so easily! Don't let them link up the offense! We suffer in a war of attrition! Don't forget that there is Barbosa on the opposite bench! Do you hear that?! "
Anthony gathered around D'Antoni and heard him unexpectedly emphasizing the team's defense and speaking at a significantly faster pace than before. He also felt that the anxious game made the strategizing head coach nervous.
"Joan, you come down and rest for a while, Kyle, come on." D'Antoni pointed to Korver outside the circle and said.
Korver had been biting his fingernails while watching the game. Even when he was surrounded by the coach, he didn't pay attention to take his fingernails out of his mouth.
When he first heard that D'Antoni actually let him play, he was so shocked that he didn't react. As a new member of the team, although he knew that the Nuggets were short of manpower at the point, he didn't expect it to be like this. He came on as a substitute early.
Wang Zhizhi, who was on the side, smiled empathetically.
"Kyle, why are you still standing there! Take off your clothes quickly!" After D'Antoni laid out the tactics and saw Korver still standing there, he couldn't help but scolded him.
After hearing this, Korver quickly took off his clothes and threw them on the bench.
"Beep!"
It just so happened that the timeout on the sidelines had just arrived.
Korver took a deep breath and appeared on the stage with the other players on the team. At this time, the other four players on the Nuggets team except Korver were starting. He couldn't help but rub his arms back and forth, unable to hold back. Inner tension.
Anthony saw Korver's nervousness, and he also knew that whether Korver's performance would affect the team's subsequent reinforcements. He walked directly to Korver, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Kyle, Don't be nervous, just play at the same level as during training, I know you are very accurate."
¡°Me¡Melo¡¡± Korver didn¡¯t expect Anthony, the team boss, to actually come over to comfort him, and he was immediately flattered.
"Don't worry, the team is playing run-and-gun now to share the ball. As long as you get a chance, anyone will pass the ball." Anthony still smiled and said.
"Well, I will hit them." Korver nodded vigorously and said. As a marginal player and also a rookie, Anthony's encouragement to him can be said to be crucial.
Anthony finally patted Korver on the shoulder, said nothing, and then went on the court. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??Very accurate. "
