140 to 138, with just over 30 seconds left, the Bobcats take a two-point lead over the Suns!
The Suns continue their offense with an inbound play, with D'Antoni not calling a timeout. They aren't failing to score, it's just their defense that's lacking, and a timeout might interfere with Nash's hot shooting streak.
At the top of the arc, Nash controls the ball while facing Zhang Yang's defense, taking his time. Zhang Yang stands firmly on the three-point line, covering Nash's shooting space without making any rash moves.
With 10 seconds left on the shot clock, Stoudemire comes out to set a screen on Zhang Yang's left side.
Zhang Yang actively presses up against Stoudemire, getting ready to circle back to the top of the arc to block Nash's three-pointer. He anticipates this movement ahead of time, fearing he might be slowed down by his fatigue, but as Nash leans his body to the right, he suddenly dribbles between his legs to the left, breaking into the three-point line!
