In the game between the Suns and the Kings on January 17, Beijing time, the Suns' defense was not good in the first half, and the offensive shooting rate was not enough, causing them to fall behind by 17 points in the first half. The Suns can tie with Durant in the final quarter, which is a huge surprise. Coupled with Durant's free throw, the Suns overturned the Kings 119-117.
And Allen was inexplicable throughout the game. Because Allen's overall state is not bad during this time, especially in the offensive end, he has always been a stable scoring point for the team. He scored 29 points on 10-of-17 shooting in the game, and this scoring explosion is terrifying. And Allen can also affect the defense, which also proves that he is very aggressive at both ends of the floor.
However, the Big Three have all been in the doldrums for most of the time. Among them, Durant should be regarded as a relatively good play, especially in the final quarter, he can score consecutive goals to chase points. Whether it's making kills or shooting, all of them are maintaining an extremely terrifying shooting rate, helping the team continue to close the point difference and play a climax. Unfortunately, at other times, Durant not only made mistakes, but also had no attitude on both offensive and defensive ends, causing him to cause countless abuses on the court. Thankfully, he finished the savior at the last minute and scored a killer goal.
It's just that Booker and Beal won't be able to pick up in the final quarter. They were 5 out of 14 and 6 out of 14, and that was clearly not enough. Especially for Booker, he can't really play, which causes him to be efficient and loses his rhythm when he has the ball. And then there's Beal, who didn't shoot well in this game, and even his plus/minus was one of the worst players on the team.
But Gordon became a big focus. When he had back-to-back opportunities in the final quarter, he was able to consistently score three-pointers. He had a terrible shooting percentage before, and his crucial three-pointer in this game helped turn the team around. With 13 points on 5-of-10 shooting from the field, such a scoring dominance is already very exaggerated.
