Chapter 737: Nervous Blade

Transition offense.

The moment Nash received the inbound pass, he immediately sprinted toward the frontcourt at full speed, while Lewis and Richardson also accelerated, charging toward the vicinity of the three-point line on both sides.

At the same time.

Although Stoudemire was a center, his speed was not slow at all, and he drove straight to the basket in one go.

Three people in three directions, plus a master passer—the Suns had pushed their offensive speed to the absolute limit.

How to defend this?

For a moment, the Bulls seemed a bit disorganized.

"Whoosh!"

Nash pushed the fast break quickly, his eyes sharp and hands fast, accurately finding Lewis who had rushed to the right corner.

A good opportunity.

"Swish!"

Lewis was also very decisive; the moment he set his feet in the corner and received Nash's pass, he resolutely put up a three-pointer.

What?!

"Clang!"

It was a good shot, but unfortunately, it didn't go in this time.

But it didn't matter.

Under the basket, Stoudemire and Shawn Marion both leaped with all their might, fighting desperately for the rebound.

Marion grabbed the rebound and, without holding the ball, flicked it out to find Richardson at the left arc.

The opportunity wasn't very good.

He passed it back to Nash at the center of the arc, who took the ball and drove in.

But after taking just one step and drawing the defense's attention, he made another bounce pass, finding Richardson again as he rushed to the left corner.

The opportunity appeared.

"Swish!"

Richardson raised his hands and also put up a three-pointer.

This time?!

Nothing but net.

And in the Suns' next offensive possession, led by Nash, the Suns once again pushed their speed to the extreme.

From pushing the ball up the court, to several passes and cuts between players, to Stoudemire's final attack on the rim.

The entire process took less than 7 seconds.

"Boom!"

Stoudemire received the ball under the basket, made a turn, bypassed Yao, and laid it in.

Scored again.

"So... so fast on offense."

Barkley exclaimed.

Kenny Smith also showed a look of astonishment on his face, "The Suns' offensive speed is too fast, and the efficiency of their key finishes is decent.

This makes them very difficult for opponents to defend.

Although.

They have abandoned defense to a certain extent.

But this powerful firepower is enough to incinerate everything!"

The two commentators were just sighing.

"Swish!"

Nash also rushed into the basket amidst the dazzling passing and cutting, using his signature low-handed layup to catch Yao and Chandler off guard.

The layup was successful.

The Suns' "Run and Gun" tactic, with Nash as the axis, had initially taken shape!!!

The Bulls have no solution?!

To be fair, on the offensive end, it is indeed very difficult to restrict them when Su Yan is not fully committed to defense.

But why doesn't Su Yan defend seriously?

Because... it doesn't need to be too serious yet.

The Suns' run and gun certainly exerts powerful firepower on the offensive end, but... the Bulls are not bad either.

Su Yan pushed the ball up, looking at Nash, Richardson, or Lewis on the perimeter.

All of them were weak links on defense.

He could play against anyone and devour anyone; facing Liu Yisi's defense, he used a sudden step to accelerate and leave him behind.

He rushed into the basket and flew up with the ball.

Stoudemire just wanted to step up, only to find that Yao, who was under the basket behind him, had long since raised his hand to signal for an alley-oop.

No choice.

He didn't dare to step up at all.

"Swish!"

Su Yan scored easily.

And in the following possession, Su Yan once again rushed into the Suns' paint as easily as walking across a morning street.

But this time he encountered the double-team of Stoudemire and Marion.

How to break it?

He wasn't in a hurry to attack at all.

He passed it out, found Iguodala, and then flicked it to Hinrich in the left corner; the open spot appeared.

As a shooter, Hinrich fired a three-pointer extremely decisively.

Hand up, blade down.

"Swish!"

Nothing but net.

Then, a Bulls possession.

Yao pulled out to set a screen for Su Yan, and Su Yan rushed in along the left wing, but was instantly met by the triple-team of Richardson, Marion, and Lewis.

Although Su Yan wasn't attacking fiercely.
