Legend of Tomorrow

Guo Xu's shooting got better and better as he practiced. In the past, he would have seizures once every five to seven games. After the All-Star Game, he would break out every two or three games.

Zhang Lili said excitedly: Guo Xu hit two three-pointers in a row! He really dared to shoot! He really scored! He may go up to 40+ again!

Xu Jicheng said: As long as Guo Xu and O'Neal play pick-and-roll, opponents will have a headache. Last time, a team coach was helpless after the game, saying that their pick-and-roll was better than the Jazz.

Zhang Liyi smiled and said: It's very possible, because Stockton's scoring ability is far worse than Guo Xu. In the Jazz, he is responsible for distributing the ball, and scoring mainly depends on Malone. The two Lakers are different. One likes to shoot three-pointers. , one score was all in the penalty area. I think Guo Xu is more suitable to partner with O'Neal than Kobe.

The Eagles made a mistake in their offense. Henderson forced a breakthrough with the ball and knocked down Fox. He was called to hit someone with the ball.

The ball was given to the Lakers, and Fisher moved to the frontcourt to Guo Xu. This time the pass was a little slower, and Knight caught up.

Guo Xu opened the distance, dribbled the ball from his crotch to his right hand, and quickly changed direction to the left. Knight caught up with him and was just half of his body. Guo Xu accelerated violently, knocked Knight away and forced a breakthrough. Knight lost his center of gravity. He fell to the ground, unable to defend himself.

The referee would not call a foul when seeing such a ball. The two were about the same size. Only the person involved, Knight, knew that Guo Xu's strength was not something he could compete with. He felt like he was being crushed by a heavy defender.

In the future, LeBron James will be good at breakthroughs like this. Defenders can easily judge his changes of direction, but they will be knocked away by him. And unlike others who occasionally show strength, James mostly has this kind of breakthrough.

Of course, Guo Xu couldn't knock away the swingman, so he could only bully the short defender. He stopped in front of the free throw line to shoot a jump shot, quickly shot before covering up on the wing, and hit the ball steadily. 12 to 4, personal 10th point.

The Eagles continued to play the pick-and-roll. Muhammad made a cut and took the ball to attack, but Grant was blocked by the defender. O'Neal was led to the basket by the defender, which did not mean that the Eagles players could easily score in the penalty area. Muhammad's passing awareness is very poor and he ignores threats from the side.

Fox picked up the ball and passed it to Fisher. The latter advanced quickly and was strong. It was difficult for Terry to withstand him. Guo Xu ran faster and went to the middle penalty area on a fast break to ask for the ball with his back.

Fisher passed the ball, and Guo Xu leaned on Knight with his back to catch the ball with both hands, turned around and forced a layup.

Knight suffered a big loss in the close confrontation. Knowing that he couldn't stop Guo Xu from turning around, he quickly called for a foul. However, he only held one arm of Guo Xu. He turned around anyway and picked up the basket with one hand with his right hand. He didn't jump up but it didn't affect him. After taking the shot, the ball hit the board and entered the frame, and the referee's whistle sounded, 2+1.

Eagles coach Lang Kruger felt that he was a loser on the sidelines. He replaced Knight and replaced him with Matt Maloney, a white guard who is 191cm tall and weighs 87kg.

Are you kidding me? Which expert said before that Jason Guo's real strength is about the same as Knight's? What the hell is this called? If the two of them faced off for the whole game, could he score 100 points?

Before the All-Star Game, some experts indeed said that Guo Xu was Knight who could shoot three-pointers. The two were about the same speed. Guo Xu's breakthrough skills were not as good as Knight's. He mainly relied on the OK combination to attract shots after the defense. Without the pick-and-roll, he had to Waste.

This kind of expert now seems not even to be a senior fan, but at best a pseudo-fan. Guo Xu is not useless. Knight was really useless after he left the Cavaliers. He can only break through one style of play. If he does not break out, he will not be able to exert his power. As a result, the coach can only let Terry play without the ball at the 2 position.

Guo Xu made an extra free throw, 15-4, his 13th point.

Zhang Lijia said: I now feel that it is really difficult for Iverson to take advantage against Guo Xu. Not only does he shoot accurately, he is also very sharp in breakthroughs. He can also hit hard when facing players with a similar size to himself.

Xu Jicheng said: Zen Master, Kobe Bryant, O'Neal and others all recognize his strength. This is by no means a boast.

With Knight, Terry moved to the point guard position. The new Maloney had been seriously injured and was not moving very fast. Now he mainly plays the 2 position. His style of play is a bit like the Lakers' Pan Pesi, and he can catch and shoot well.

Terry brought the ball to the frontcourt and immediately felt something strange. Guo Xu was two steps away from him and lowered his focus on defense. He was not so relaxed in the rookie game.

This is a clear indication of the need to let go! Bastard, stop looking down on others. Do you think the Eagles will win?

Terry made an emergency stop for a three-pointer. Guo Xu stepped forward and stretched out his hand. There was almost no interference, and the ball hit the net hollowly. 15 to 7.

The home fans gave Terry applause. In most people's eyes, this was the most interesting exchange of stars. They would never have thought that Guo Xu would not dare to put in any effort on the defensive end just to play a little longer. There is also knowledge in releasing water. If Terry scores high points, everyone will be happy.

As for whether there will be another group of people criticizing his defensive black hole after the game, Guo Xu doesn't care at all. He has long been tired of hearing it. Even if he defends hard and defends the opponent to death, not many people will say that he defends well.

Fisher dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Guo Xu ran without the ball from the side again. He caught the ball and shot. Terry was blocked by O'Neal and could not immediately avoid the interference and shoot. The ball did not go in. It was a good chance.

The Lakers play very simply, basically attacking once every 10 seconds, while the Hawks focus on positioning to reduce the number of rounds.

After passing the ball several times, Kukoc caught the ball after a pick-and-roll. Facing Grant on the outside, he shot a three-pointer with a jumper. Muhammad grabbed the offensive rebound and went out to look for Terry. Guo Xu deliberately kept his distance and gave it to Terry. Plenty of room to take action.

Terry would not refuse such a gift. He pulled it up and shot, hitting another three-pointer on the right side. 15 to 10.

If you are a coach who places great emphasis on defense, you will most likely call a timeout to scold Guo Xu and O'Neal. What if you two casually defended at the beginning and made trouble?

But Phil Jackson won't call a timeout. His usual hobby is meditation. He has long seen through Guo Xu's thoughts and has no idea of ​​restricting him from brushing up data. He also wants to see what Guo Xu can do if he is allowed to play freely. To what extent.

When the Lakers played against the Warriors, Jackson arranged tactics for Kobe and let him play as he pleased. As a result, Kobe scored a career-high 51 points. Jackson didn't say anything when the Lakers lost that game.

All Guo Xu can do is take shots continuously. This was not infected by Kobe. Kobe is still a very selfless player now. He has never taken 40+ shots in a single game. Guo Xu is planning to take 40+ shots this time. He has the blood of brush flowing in his bones. His father cooks and washes the pots N times every day.

Guo Xu relied on O'Neal to catch the ball and was caught up by Terry. He held the ball and bent his knees in a shooting posture. He took a step and feinted to the right, changed direction and passed Terry in one step.

In the pursuit of defense, Terry ran as hard as he could to interfere with the shot, but couldn't stop the car. After covering the screen, O'Neal made an air cut to grab the rebound, attracting Muhammad to the basket. Guo Xu got an open space at 45 degrees and made an emergency jump shot.

17 to 10, personal 15th point.

The Eagles attacked and the players passed several passes. Terry ran without the ball and got rid of Guo Xu, caught the ball and scored a layup. 17 to 12.

Fisher organized, Guo Xu relied on cover to catch the ball again, and Terry caught up.

Guo Xu waited patiently for his teammates to pull away, took a step outside the three-point line and faced the frame, and calmly played singles.

Terry was panicking, was he planning to keep shooting like this today? Isn't this fighting for the ball with O'Neal? Doesn’t the Lakers coach care?
