On February 11, Beijing time, the NBA ushered in a strong dialogue, and the Suns, ranked No. 1 in the league, met the challenge of the defending champion Bucks at home. Both teams have performed well over the past period of time, with the Suns winning 3 straight and the Bucks winning four straight, with the core players of both teams performing well and playing consistently on both ends of the board. As the opponent of last season's finals, who can laugh at the end of the two teams in this campaign has also become the focus of attention.
In this game, the Suns played well, and they played a wave of 33-22 offense in the second quarter to successfully take the lead in the game. In the third quarter, the Suns once again played a wave of 33-21 offense, widening the score gap to double digits, and in the game, the Suns led the Bucks by more than 20 points at most, and the game also showed a one-sided situation. In the end, the Suns beat the Bucks 131-107 at home by 24 points to get four consecutive wins, and the Bucks' four-game winning streak ended.
In this game, the core alphabet brother of the Bucks team was successfully limited by the Suns, and when the Suns faced the impact of the alphabet brother, the team adopted a joint defense strategy, that is, when the alphabet brother got the ball to break through the inside line, the team would have a number of players to interfere, so that it could not get the opportunity to score easily. After Brother Alphabet's breakthrough route was blocked, his efficiency in the game also declined.
In this game, Alphabet Brother started for 30 minutes, he only got 18 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists on 5-of-14 shooting, and there were three turnovers, which was one of the few games in which Alphabet Brother played in the downturn this season. In the face of the Suns' joint defense, Alphabet Brother was unable to cope, which also led to his poor performance in this campaign, completely limited by the Suns.
On the Suns side, they once again showed a better overall performance, although Booker shot very badly, only 17 points in 6 of 19 shooting, but Paul's state of affairs was very hot, and he had a very good performance in terms of personal offense and tandem team. Throughout the game, Paul handed over a luxurious stat of 17 points, 7 rebounds and 19 assists, which helped the team very well, and under his tandem, the Suns' three interior lines Ayton, McGee and Biyombo were all highly efficient. Among them, Ayton ushered in the outbreak of this campaign, he had 27 points and 7 rebounds in 12 of 14 shots, and when facing the alphabet brother, Ayton had the upper hand, and the shooting efficiency was also better than the letter brother. Paul and Ayton were instrumental in the team's victory, and their performance was too brilliant, which also helped the team successfully defeat the defending champion Bucks at home.
Judging from this game, it has to be said that the strength of the Suns is very strong, and when facing a team like the Bucks, they can also achieve a big victory, the team is in very good shape this season, the performance of both ends of the attack and defense is stable, and the team has no obvious weakness in the game, showing the strength to impact the championship. In my opinion, the Suns are the best team in the league this season, they have a very good chance of going to the final championship, they have the ability to do that.
