Beijing time on March 28, the Suns temporarily led the Jazz 57-52 at halftime, Chris Paul 5 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, what is even more amazing, in the face of the Jazz's joint defense, he cracked three different ways in the last minute, really getting older and more demon, and it worked every time.
Paul had 5 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block in the half
The Suns once led by 13 points, but Hardy suddenly changed formation, allowing the team to start defending the defense, testing the Suns' shooting skills, and the Suns were really not powerful, once three points were scored by the Jazz by 3 points, 1 minute before the end of the first half, the team was still 49-50 behind, Paul began to think, three ways are as follows:
Paul helped Lee three points
Paul held the ball from the top of the left arc and called Ayton to block, both of them attacked the basket, the Jazz defense contracted, and Paul cut the outside pass to Damian Lee at a 45-degree angle on the left, who opened a three-pointer.
Paul helped Ayton make two free throws
In the second round, Paul also arced with Ayton, but this time, he hit the ball to Ayton, who faced Kessler and went straight to the basket and caused two fouls.
Paul helped Ross by three points
On the final shot of the half, Paul again blocked Ayton, this time passing the ball to Ross at a 45-degree angle on the right, who slammed into a three-pointer. Note that Rose was 0-of-6 from three-point range, and Paul was able to pass the ball to him, underscoring Paul's trust in shooters.
Three times to break the joint defense, Paul respectively adopted three different ways of internal and external passes, blocking and dismantling to fly Ayton, and the strong side of external control turned to the weak side, helping the team to approve an 8-2 small climax at half time 57-52 to overtake the score again, really the older the more demon.
