Try to make two players go one-on-one and avoid effective pick-and-roll cooperation, allowing them to score easily.
Therefore, Guoyang implements an aggressive switching strategy, as long as Nash pick-and-rolls, there must be a quick switch, no chance for cooperation.
Even if Yao Ming switches out and is outsized by Nash, Guoyang still resolutely implements this plan, allowing Nash to shoot.
The Suns started with three missed shots, and after being hit with a 0:6, Nash finally couldn't hold back and stopped passing the ball.
Facing Yao's mismatched single defense, he used a retreating mid-range jumper to score, giving the Suns their first point of the game.
Then, in a fast break, he did a stop-and-pop, hitting the board for two points.
Nash's shooting level is quite high, with a free throw percentage consistently over 90%.
If he unleashed his offense rather than prioritizing passing, averaging 20 points a game would be no problem.
