The Suns beat the Lone Ranger 129-109 to lead the series 2-0, and will come to the Home of the Lone Ranger next, but the Lone Ranger's 2 games also exposed too many problems! Even if Doncic bombed 80 points in 2 games, it is still difficult to win, and the record of the exposed career so far when facing Doncic is 9 wins and 1 loss, Doncic is bitter, I did not expect that the 36-year-old Paul also became Doncic's nemesis, and what makes Doncic's heart more heart-wrenching may be Paul's words after the game.
Speaking after the game about taking over the game in the fourth quarter, which was his crazy performance of dropping 14 points in 6 minutes, Paul said: "It's funny, I like this, but what's even better is that you have a player like Booker around you. The final moments of the game can be exciting, and in those moments you can rely on what you train, you fight to the end, you can accept the final result, and we trust ourselves. ”
Comparing the data, Doncic 13 of 22 in 36 minutes and 23 seconds bombed 35 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, Paul 16 of 16 in 36 minutes and 13 seconds bombed 28 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, and the total score of the remaining 4 starters of Doncic's team was not more than Doncic! And Paul? Paul also exploded with 30 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists on 11-of-19 shooting, which is very obvious.
What is very practical is that Doncic is very strong, but he is less than the top of the list! Coach Kidd said after the game: "Doncic is great, very good, but others have not shown it, we can't rely on him to shoot 30 points every night to win, he should be tired, he played 36 minutes almost exhausted, but this night, we can only rely on him!" ”
This lone ranger is very good, but there is no absolute star except Fordcic, with a 20 million annual salary hardaway is recuperating, Dinwiddie, Bertans is not the absolute core, Doncic may also make a choice.
