Two Hundred and Fifty-Nine: [The Absolute Core of the 2 Big Shots]

Stoudemire is by no means a cat or a dog. He even entered the league's first team last season.

In today's era when four (three) big forwards are gradually slipping to the top, more and more voices have begun to call him the league's number one power forward. After all, he once scored a super data of 37+10 with a terrifying shooting percentage of 55% in the series against Tim Duncan. Although it was Popovich's tactical guidance... Popovich paid more attention to defending Stephen Nash's pass at the time, and turned a blind eye to Stoudemire's offense. But even so, being able to get 37+10 data on the peak Spurs is still scalp-numbing.

Stoudemire's face-frame technology combined with his abnormal physical fitness can be called a time-honored level. Some basketball experts once claimed that among the active power forwards, Dirk Nowitzki is the final attacker outside the three-second zone, and Stoudemire is the dominant player in the three-second zone.

He has a very explosive first step, but also has the ability to complete the pull-up shot from anywhere... which makes his pass and cut shot three threats.

In fact, he has always played the center position as a power forward, but he is playing a set of quasi-small forward skills.

"I've seen a lot of arrogant rookies."

Stoudemire's tone was indifferent, and his posture was arrogant: "You are just another one under my crotch."

Duge didn't respond any more, just stood in front of him, raised his right hand, and the meaning was obvious: Then try it!

Stoudemire quickly made a sharp test step, but his feint was too obvious.

Duge didn't even blink his eyelids, just looked at him so calmly.

This made Stoudemire a little embarrassed, and at the same time a little annoyed... If Stoudemire had a close relationship with Paul Pierce and Carmelo Anthony, the two strongest masters of the current trial step, these two would definitely tell him sincerely : If you can blow up Snoopy with your body, it is best not to try to use skills. IQ is an irreparable gap.

When the first trial failed to achieve results, the second time... Stoudemire started directly. I have to admit that the explosive power of Stoudemire, known as the beast striker, is indeed staggering.

It took him less than 0.5 seconds to go from standing still to striding forward.

Although Doug had judged that his action was a real attack, his reaction was still half a beat slow, and Stoudemire took the initiative. He rushed towards the penalty area, and Doug quickly chased him sideways.

The two rushed two steps forward, one behind the other, and Stoudemire suddenly stopped and took a step back! !

The action speed is extremely fast!

Faster is his fadeaway jumper,

He almost didn't have any preparatory moves, and he directly stepped back and made a jump shot... With such a sharp movement frequency, it is indeed difficult for inside players to defend him.

Even if the outside players can keep up with the speed, their height is still an insurmountable boundary.

However.

Just when Stoudemire was about to raise his shooting right hand to celebrate victory, a figure soared in front of his eyes like an eagle spreading its wings, a huge shadow rushed towards his face, and his eyes were full of horror... He was born as a Brutalist striker and is known for his bounce. But... In his cognition, it is impossible for Doug's Achilles tendon to complete such an aggressive and violent bounce between such high-frequency transitions.

However, it just happened!

And, he is a victim.

Boom! !

A huge sound exploded above his head like an explosion. Immediately, amidst the exclamations of the audience on the sidelines, the basketball changed sharply and struck beyond the three-point line like a cannonball.

Chris Duhon hits out, catches the ball, and then he holds the pace, waiting for Snoopy to go.

"In the three-second zone, I am immune to facing-up singles!"

Duge was still calm, his tone was as cold as a machine, without any emotion. Invisibly, a sense of judgment like the will of God was created.

Gritting his teeth, Stoudemire ran forward, ready to create an opportunity for revenge.

At the same time, D'Antoni on the sidelines has been completely conquered by Doug's athletic ability: "No wonder Isaiah Thomas values ​​him so much. His ability to protect the basket is indeed the top in the league. In this way, maybe I can surround him Create an offensive and defensive running and bombing."

D'Antoni felt happy, like eating honey.

At this time, Isaiah Thomas in front of the TV was thinking about another thing. He is thinking about how to expand Doug's defensive influence from the paint. He wanted Doug's deterrence to cover half court.

As far as the block just now is concerned, Isaiah Thomas believes that strength and luck each account for 50%. It is impossible for Doug to successfully block shots every time. Stoudemire obviously did not show his 100% form. With his height, he can completely lean on Doug to shoot... This can encroach on Snoopy's shooting space, Let his jumping ability not show up.

While Isaiah Thomas was planning more, Doug broke into the penalty area again. This time, the Suns' zone defense quickly tightened, and they could not tolerate Doug's dunk in the penalty area again.

So, Snoopy shot back and the basketball passed to Stephan Novak.

Novak catches and shoots... on target!

The game moves on.

Stoudemire still forced a single, but the final shot was still slightly wide of the basket...luck was not on his side.

The rebound was picked off by Doug over Robin Lopez's head and knocked him out of the air to the ground.

When Robin Lopez complained to the referee endlessly, Doug had launched a sharp counterattack.

At halftime, he directly used the pass to find his teammate Gallinari, and Gallinari hit another 3-pointer.

Dug has completely established a new running and bombing system on both ends of the offense and defense, which makes Phoenix fans have to think of those statements by Sean Marion: "Snoopy is running and bombing, he is Stephen Nash, Boris Dior, Sean Marion A combination of Lyon and Stoudemire."

Judging from the current situation, it is indeed the case. Although he did not do any single item better than these references.

However, when he has so many characteristics in one body, if you don't have a complete defensive system, then you can only watch him exploit various loopholes and gallop!

Stoudemire finally completed a breakthrough on Snoopy on the next possession, but his super-swinging crossover led to even more tragic consequences. He fell under the basket...Robin Lopez's landing on the previous possession It left a sweat stain on the floor, but the caddy didn't wipe it off completely, and Stoudemire chose to take off directly after the super crossover, which caused the soles of the feet to slip and then fell to the ground... His head hit the floor hard.

The fans in the American West Arena were all breathless.

After lying quietly on the floor for five minutes, Stoudemire was judged by the team doctor to have a concussion, and he was carried out of the arena on a stretcher.

Before leaving, Doug walked up to him and told him softly: "I still respect you a lot, you are at least a person who walks the talk."

Duger wasn't sure the concussed Stoudemire would listen, but he had to tell him.

Before blocking Stoudemire's shot, Stoudemire stepped back to the designated spot exactly as he said: He had told Doug that he would shoot from that spot.

Even though he failed at pretending, he kept his promise, so Doug respects him. There are many old players in the NBA who are brazen and like to imitate Larry Bird and say this kind of trash talk, but they usually change the location during the offense and proudly declare: Welcome to the NBA.

...

With Stoudemire off the field, the Phoenix Suns' restricted-area attacking ability is a complete vacuum. Even though Robin Lopez boasted in front of Doug five minutes ago that he is an NBA-level center. But as Doug pulled out the rebounds over his head several times in a row and pushed him out of the reasonable collision zone, he finally realized that the gap between himself and Snoopy was getting wider and wider.

Stephen Nash tried to save the team in the third quarter, and he was almost done. Two consecutive three-pointers are like life-saving pills.

But when Snoopy hit three consecutive pull-up jumpers, the Suns chose to surrender before the arrival of the fourth quarter.

It's a ridiculous thing to do.

Before the game, absolutely no one dared to imagine that the Knicks without Zach Randolph could collapse the Suns in three quarters.

But what's impossible when Snoopy can hit three pull-up jumpers in a row?

The Knicks' bench even jumped up because of this, whether it was D'Antoni's direct descendants, or Quentin Richardson's old fritters, each of them jumped three feet in surprise!

In fact, on this matter, D'Antoni and Isaiah Thomas behind him once again reached a consensus: Snoopy must be the core of the Knicks' future.

Moreover, they respectively created a team and tactical system for Dug in their hearts.

"The significance of this game is not the victory, but the fact that my running and bombing tactics have entered the 2.0 generation! Snoopy is not the next Stephen Nash, he is Snoopy, he is the running and bombing Duke!"

After the game, D'Antoni proudly told Phoenix reporters.

At this time, he finally felt what it means to return home with honor, and he felt elated!

Doug obviously didn't have this kind of empathy, and he didn't know that he had become 100% the absolute core candidate of the two big guys because of this game.

At this time, what he was thinking in his head was: the team can no longer fight so clearly. If this division continues, this season will be over!

Doug is still looking forward to the playoffs, especially when the Heat rushed to the fourth place in the Eastern Conference after Dwyane Wade's comeback, his desire became stronger.

His feelings for Miami are more complicated. On the one hand, he thanked Pat Riley for his cultivation. He gave himself the best training. Doug once reflected on the reverse. If he was selected by other teams, he would never improve so fast, and he would not get so many just right opportunities. At the same time, when he was about to upgrade from a role player to a core player, Pat Riley sent himself to New York, which was rebuilding. For his career, this could not have been a better journey.

It's just... being traded is always a little uncomfortable.

He still wants to prove that ... the Heat were wrong to trade him for three first-round picks and get complacent about it.
