On the 23rd Beijing time, the NBA's regular season continues, the Kings are facing the Suns at home, in recent times, the Suns and Kings have not been very good, the Kings lost the Green Army by 25 points in the last round, they need a big win to reverse their disadvantage, and the Suns have only won three consecutive nine rounds, and their thirst for victory is getting stronger and stronger, so they were finally defeated by the Kings, let's briefly introduce the game this time, and then the performance of the players.
Game review: In the first quarter, Eubanks opened a big kill inside, Sabonis scored 4 points in a row, and then it was the turn of the Kings, Murray and Fox scored consecutive goals, allowing the Kings to maintain a slight advantage, and finally under the leadership of Durant, they only had a 5-point gap in the first quarter. In the second quarter, the Kings' two core players moved, Sabonis and Fox continued to cause problems in the restricted area, and under their leadership, the Kings had an 11-point advantage.
In the second half of the game, Sabonis was still unstoppable, he continued to create damage in the restricted area, forcing the Suns to take a front and back attack, under the siege of the two, he delivered five assists in a quarter, with his help, the Kings were already behind by 18 points after the first three quarters, and at the critical moment in the second half, the Suns still did not admit defeat, but Sabonis and Fox still performed very well, they successfully prevented Booker's counterattack, and finally the Suns lost 105-120 in the hands of the Kings。
Five Kings players scored in double figures.
In this game, Fox made 9 of 17 free throws, 2 of 6 three-pointers, scored 23 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 blocks, while Sabonis performed better, 12 of 15 shots, 0 of 2 3-pointers, 28 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists, Sabonis can be said to be the best point guard in the NBA except for Jokic.
With his addition, Murray 21 points and 5 rebounds, Barnes 19 points and 1 rebound, Huerter 13 points and 5 assists, the main lineup of the Kings is very young, although their offense is very stable, but their defense is very poor, which is why they will be suppressed when playing against top teams, maybe they can increase their strength by bringing in some excellent guards.
Solar dual nuclear force.
Durant and Booker have done their best, Durant is still performing well, he shot 9 of 14, got 28 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block, but relying only on him and Booker, Durant seems a little powerless, which is why he will make 7 mistakes on the court. Booker didn't show much efficiency defensively, but he did his job, finishing with 24 points, four rebounds and seven assists on 9-of-20 shooting.
This season, Vogel has made Booker the starting power forward, and while that transition is a huge test for a pure scorer, Booker has accomplished that goal, averaging 27. per game so far9 points 56 rebounds 8With two assists, 47 percent from the field and just 38 percent from three-point range, his attack efficiency is still high, and his average assists per game is a career-high.
Durant has set a new high in 14 years of MVP this season, averaging 31 points and 6 points per game so far1 rebound 56 assists 11 block, shooting 518%, 46 three-point shooting7%, but the performance of the two has not affected the team, and in the last ten rounds, they have lost seven in a row, and their results have plummeted, and they have now fallen to the top 10 in the West.
In the early part of the season, people were not familiar with every team's tactics and had to rely on star players to win, but later on, there was a certain understanding that the Suns could not have won without two core players, which is why their results have plummeted. At the end of the season, the Suns made two big trades to get Durant and Booker, but they didn't seem to have made much of a difference.
They used Paul, Shamet, plus five second-round picks, in exchange for Beal, Goodwin, Isaiah Todd, and now that Todd is gone, Goodwin may not be able to play, and can only be used as a substitute for the Suns, this season, he only has 6 points and 4 rebounds per game, Bill was traded away, originally wanted Bill to be the third seed, but Beal came, only played six games this season, and all were rested, which gave the Suns a valuable player.
In addition, in exchange for Lillard, they also traded Ayton for Little, Nurkic, Grayson Allen, Nurkic and Grayson Allen all performed well, but their scoring ability is not as consistent as Ayton, Ayton's defense is much better, and if there is a chance to possess the ball, he can be an offensive player, which has been proven.
But after two big deals, instead of growing, the sun seems to be getting weaker and weaker. Please leave a comment.
