The big win over the Heat, Butler slashed in the air, Durant easily maintained his health, and the Suns sluggish players became shortcomings!
On January 30, the NBA regular season resumes with the Suns hosting the Heat on this game day. Prior to this game, the Suns had a good momentum after entering the Booker period, averaging 62 points and 40+ points per game, but the two losses also caused them to drop in the standings. Although the opponent against the Heat in this round is good, the Suns also hope to end the Heat's losing streak.
At the beginning of the first quarter, Booker, who controlled the ball, played more reasonably after two high-scoring losses, and the Suns took an eight-point lead at 33:25 in the first quarter. In the second quarter of the game, even though Durant played a wave, the Suns blossomed more, still scored 5 points in a single quarter, and at halftime, the Suns led by 13 points.
Holding a 13-point lead, it also made the Suns play more aggressively in the second half, Booker, Durant, and Beal took turns to attack, giving them a 13-point lead in the first quarter, and at the end of the third quarter, the Suns' lead reached 26 points. With 26 points in hand, the opponent is still a playoff team like the Suns, and there is not much suspense in this game.
Looking back at this game, who was responsible for the Suns' victory? Actually, in this game, the Big Three should be praised, why? Because of the Big Three, Durant can also play the best ball. Booker, on his side, was 8-of-17 in the third quarter, scoring 20 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists, and his on-court win value was +23. Beal's side recorded 16 points, 2 rebounds and 7 assists on 7-of-15 shooting in the third quarter.
Durant's side? Two little tiger brothers, Durant is also willing to play hot ball, in the third quarter of the game, Durant was 6 of 12, got 14 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, Durant is also willing to make wedding dresses for the two people, and when the Big Three fight, although the Suns have not yet established their own system, but the Big Three take turns to pick up the sledgehammer, which is enough.
The Big Three played very well, but in this game, facing the Heat's interior line, the Suns' shortcomings were also very obvious, and the Suns' shortcomings came from their low position - Nurkic. In the third quarter of the game, Nurkic shot 3 of 2, got 4 points, 8 rebounds and 4 fouls, and Nurkic's existence won and lost the worst in the opening game.
Now Nurkic can't make a difference on the offensive end, which also makes the Suns lose contact with the inside and outside, and the outside line has become a key position, which also increases the difficulty of scoring for Durant, Booker, Beal and others, after all, when the team is unbalanced inside and outside, the team is easy to target, and Nurkic's fall has also sounded the alarm for the Suns.
