Chapter 921

After winning the Lakers, the Celtics rushed to Phoenix for the first time, where they will start another back-to-back journey.

this season.

Eric Bledsoe has completely established his core identity. Although the statistics are not as good as last season, his impact is still the strongest in the Suns.

Then add the Morris Brothers, PJ Tucker who will shine in the Rockets in the future, and Brandon Knight who has not yet pulled up. Such a young team, but on the surface, their future Seems like something will happen.

After the Celtics won the Lakers, although Qin Tao did not play, there were some problems with their continuity.

Even though there is still some distance from the playoffs, but if they want to get one step closer, then they must stabilize their state.

Simply Qin Tao has never slipped, as long as he is there, the lower limit is still guaranteed.

Night of the 23rd.

Players from the Celtics and the Suns appeared in the player channel one after another, and they are about to start the hot stage of their game.

The fans of Phoenix are quite enthusiastic. Even if the team's record is not as good as before, they still choose to stick to it.

warm up.

Qin Tao will communicate with his teammates from time to time in order to understand their current status.

It's time for this back-to-back. After all, the All-Stars have rested for so long, back-to-back will bring them a good state maintenance.

Then came the appearance ceremony.

With the application of 3D projection to the arena, the players' appearance ceremony is very cool.

And driven by the explosive music, the atmosphere of the stadium was quickly boosted.

After that, the two teams started their debut.

The Celtics still kept their lineup unchanged. The center let Tyler Zeller, who was in better shape, play. The power forward Stevens did not hide his weakness, but sent Qin Tao.

The choice of the small forward is somewhat surprising. Evan Turner, who seemed a bit dull this season, became the starter of this game.

The shooting guard is still Avery Bradley, and the point guard is Rajon Rondo.

As for Jeff Green, who was pushed down by Turner, he did not appear on the sidelines in this game, but the team did not put him on the injured list.

Regarding this matter, Qin Tao has already received news that the team is preparing to launch a trade.

And this deal will very likely involve Jeff Green, and the target of the deal is almost locked on the Grizzlies.

For this very likely transaction, Qin Tao basically kept his silence.

Because the team's approach can only improve the team's strength.

Even if doing so may cause some pain, but perhaps the deal completed will be very beneficial to the Celtics.

Moreover, compared with Evan Turner and Jeff Green, except for their height and weight, their positions have somewhat overlapped.

Then coupled with the fact that Jeff Green's talent has somewhat reached his upper limit, continuing to keep it may cause some troubles for the team.

Moreover, they still hold a large number of first-round picks in their hands, as well as the two rookies who may enter the NBA in the next year or two.

So whether it is considering the future or the present, the team has reasons to choose this deal.

of course.

At present, it seems that the completion of this transaction will not affect the team for the time being.

The starting lineup for the Suns is mostly young people.

Point guard is their core, Eric Bledsoe.

The shooting guard is Brandon Knight.

Small forward is Alex Len.

The power forward is PJ Tucker, and the center is actually Markieff Morris.

From the perspective of the Suns' arrangement, they have a complete lineup of small ball tactics.

The tallest Markieff Morris is [-] meters tall, but he is really not an inside player, and he appears more at the small forward position.

However, his technology is enough to support the inside, but the confrontation is worse, and the control of the rebound is worse.

Seeing such a lineup, Qin Tao's interest in playing is not very high.

Maybe the Suns' insiders can create some threats to him and only PJ Tucker is alone, as for the others, they really can't reach them.

So at the beginning of the game, after Qin Tao got the ball for the team, he immediately bombarded the Suns inside.

He gets his job done and gives the team a certain advantage, and that's when he rests.

however.

However, after he faced Tucker for the first time, this idea was temporarily discarded by him.

Well known.

Tucker will be able to shine in the Rockets in the future. One is that he has come to a system team that can better utilize his advantages, and the other is his strong defense and the hardness of the bottom plate!

Tucker seems to be at a disadvantage playing inside, but only after actually fighting him will he know what this guy is up to!

Under his defense, Qin Tao actually felt like he was exerting [-]% to [-]% of his strength!

Especially in the confrontation on the lower body, Tucker seems to be able to create necessary trouble for him every time, so that he feels uncomfortable.

For a player like Qin Tao, it is impossible to say that his foot is unstable, but when he encounters an insider who is not tall enough and has a very hard foot, his performance will eventually be affected.

Besides, in terms of speed alone, the gap between Tucker and Qin Tao is not too big.

If it weren't for his weight and style of play, Tucker would be more likely to become a defensive small forward.

Bang!

The two collided again, and Tucker refused to give way, while Qin Tao's blood accelerated.

Except for some top insiders, Qin Tao has never seen this feeling in role players.

At this moment.

Even though he could use his talent and small forward skills to complete the offense, he still chose head-to-head in the end.

As an inside player, if you shrink back in the face of confrontation, if you have no other means, then the future is basically abolished.

So Qin Tao played very hard with his back, and while being tough, he didn't forget to keep putting pressure on Tucker.

Tucker, a tough guy on the inside, suddenly doubled the pressure, making the veins on his forehead faint, as if he had exerted all his strength.

One last touch!

Qin Tao's back was very fierce, he pushed Tucker away, and suddenly turned around to face the frame, and with a bang, he staged a slam dunk!

my God!

Qin Tao's extremely fierce operation just now caused a burst of exclamation from the scene.

How tough Tucker's defense is and how powerful he is, no one in the audience knows.

But it was this player who they affectionately called "Tank" who would be treated like this. While annoyed for him, he also sighed with Qin Tao's strength.

And Qin Tao, who greeted Tucker with such an attack, talked and laughed with Tucker unexpectedly.

The two didn't have any smell of gunpowder at all, which made the fans wonder for a while.

But the relationship between players is so pure, unless you do something exciting before doing it, it's just a regular offense.

After all, they are all professional players. Who hasn't been dunked through the head?
