NBA: Sharks cry, can't stand this center

O'Neal was too aggressive in the first half, and Stoudemire was beaten so hard that he wanted to cry.

Actually...

After O'Neal left the West, many players changed from needing to play against O'Neal four times a season to twice, which made the Western Centers breathe a sigh of relief.

When Dampier dared to call himself the second center in the Western Conference, it can be seen how withered the center is in this league.

In the summer finals of 2002, Wei Guo beat O'Neal to become the league's number one center, and then Wei Guo transferred to the Rockets to play No. 3. If Wei Guo is not a center, apart from O'Neal, the only good center in this league is Dayao Now, think about players like Stoudemire and O'Neal, who say they play centers but are more inclined to power forwards.

Howard hasn't reached his prime yet...

Stoudemire, who has been able to stand alone for a year, was beaten by O'Neal tonight and secretly wiped tears in the locker room.

Check out the stats from the first half:

卫国：17分7篮板3助攻1抢断2盖帽

韦德：11分3篮板3助攻1抢断0盖帽

斯塔德迈尔：7分4篮板1助攻0抢断1盖帽

奥尼尔：21分6篮板1助攻0抢断1盖帽

纳什：9分1篮板5助攻0抢断0盖帽

基德：7分5篮板6助攻1抢断1盖帽

Wade is at a disadvantage against Wei Guo, but the data gap between him and Wei Guo is not as big as the gap between Stoudemire and O'Neal.

so...

D'Antoni still made adjustments to the lineup in the second half.

The main players remained the same, but Wei Guo returned to the 5th position and defended the Suns' basket. Marion defended Wade, Nash supplemented the outside shooter, and Kidd handed it over to Johnson.

......

The game started in the second half, and the Heat attacked.

Five players ran to the frontcourt at the same time, and Kidd pointed east and west, and the basketball bounced into O'Neal's hands.

If it were someone else, he should have avoided it right now.

But...

Wei Guo at the basket has long been waiting for O'Neal, and his timing has been accurate to milliseconds.

"Snapped!!!"

Wei Guo slapped the basketball flying.

this moment...

The basketball disappeared from O'Neal's hands, and O'Neal and Wei Guo staggered their bodies, because his hands were still hanging on the basket due to inertial hands.

The referee didn't blow his whistle!

Miller grabbed the ball, took a step back to the three-point line, and made a three-pointer!

"Shh!!!"

Basketball hit the net.

After scoring the goal, Miller pumped his fist excitedly, "Nice!"

57:68! ! !

The Suns trailed by 11 points.

This is the first game between Miller and Kidd after joining the Heat. The five players on the field are all extremely high-level golfers. Every position has a strong offensive power, and there must be no slack in defense.

Rather...

The Suns are really not good at defense.

The Suns attack!

Haslem stuck in front of Weiguo, Nash broke through and gave the ball to Marion outside the three-point line, and Marion made a three-point shot.

The arc of the ball is off...

Weiguo saw it, but Haslem was stuck in front of him. According to the judgment, the ball landed just above O'Neal. Unless Haslem was pushed away, Weiguo would have no time to go to the box to grab the rebound and rush over. Might knock O'Neal into the air.

Since he couldn't get the offensive rebound, Wei Guo turned back to defend!

"bang~~~"

The basketball bounced out of the frame.

As Wei Guo predicted, O'Neal easily grabbed the defensive rebound.

The Suns returned to defense quickly!

Kidd commanded his teammates to move and gave the ball to Miller. Miller moved the ball in a wide range. O'Neal moved forward and used his huge body to block Wei Guo from outside the three-second zone.

Wade catches the ball and breaks through for a layup!

Marion backs up...

Marion is not Weiguo, and if he were Weiguo, Wade would not dare to play like this, but facing Marion's defense, Wade confronted the ball in the air and scored the ball.

57:70! ! !

13 points behind.

The Suns have never had a tough game, not even against the Spurs...never felt this way.

Wei Guo's outbreak can score 50 or even 60 points in a game, but Wei Guo's scoring alone cannot win the game. The Suns must not only play their own offense, but also defend the Heat's offense.

......

Gentry has long put down his Art of War by Sun Tzu, and his eyes never left the court.

I can tell...

The Suns played very hard, and the Heat's defense was also very targeted.

Although the point difference has been kept within 15 points, from the analysis of the situation in the first three quarters, the Suns have little hope of winning.

"Shh!!!"

Wade hit a super long three-pointer at the buzzer, and the third quarter ended.

......

Wei Guo wiped off his sweat and glanced at the scoreboard.

79:93! ! !

The Suns trailed by 14 points.

The team scored 79 points in three quarters, averaging 26 points in one quarter. The Suns' offense was fine, and the reason behind the score was defense.

Coach Van Gundy is great...

He pays great attention to defense. If the team plays a successful defense, it will be affirmed and encouraged by Van Gundy.

Wade + O'Neal has allowed the Heat to rank first in the East, and the addition of Kidd, Miller, and Collins has given the Heat a qualitative leap.

The game comes to the fourth quarter!

Wei Guo's hard support still failed to change the backward situation. As the players' physical strength began to decline, the Heat double-teamed Wei Guo more recklessly. When Wei Guo passed the ball or scored in the face of two or three defenders , the Heat will score a goal to respond lightly.

The difference still can't be recovered...

But with 1 minute and 01 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Suns were still 11 points behind!

Wei Guo holds the ball!

"If the goal is not scored, the game is forfeited."

Gentry thought silently.

"Two-team Weiguo!"

Van Gundy yelled: "Don't let Wei Guo take a three-pointer!"

Haslem immediately stepped forward to form a half circle with Wade, one left and one right, and stopped in front of Wei Guo. Wei Guo joined the ball under his crotch and shot a three-pointer!

Wei Guo only rested for 3 minutes in the second quarter. The game has been played for 43 minutes, and he has been targeted and his physical strength is almost at the limit.

He didn't use the 'shooting rune'.

The power of this throw is a bit small...

"bang~~~"

The ball hits the front of the rim.

Wei Guo has already rushed to the basket, but the rebound was still grabbed by O'Neal. After getting the ball, Kidd, who is seasoned, has already started to press the time. The time is passing by second by second, and the Suns are getting farther and farther away from victory.

"Beep!!!"

With the sound of less left, the game is over.

107:121! ! !

The Suns lost to the Heat, losing by 14 points at home.
