Legend of Tomorrow

.., Legends of Tomorrow

On the 24th, major media reported on the Grammy Awards, and many of the news used photos of Guo Xu and Avril Lavigne singing. The video of the two performing was even more popular on the Internet.

There are no scandals between Guo Xu and Britney, because he and Avril Lavigne sit closer and chat a lot. Avril Lavigne also went to Phoenix to find him before, and it seems that the two have a better relationship.

In the evening between the Suns and the Knicks, Guo Xu made his final appearance and received warm applause from the New York fans.

CCTV5 broadcast the game live, Zhang Liji said: Jason Guo conquered the New York fans in Madison Square Garden this season without even playing a minute of the game, using his musical talent.

Xu Jicheng said: I am very curious about what his next song will be like. He said that he will continue to write songs and sing in the future. It is a big hobby.

Zhang Liji smiled and said: Guo Xu is the only one in the sports circle who can enjoy his hobby to this extent. Maybe everyone will be able to see him perform during the halftime break at the next All-Star Game.

Once he saw that Guo Xu's popularity was even higher than when he first came to New York, Marbury's desire to compete with him faded away.

Marbury was a little envious when he saw Guo Xu and his teammates gathered in a circle during the warm-up and united as one. After he joined the Knicks, he found that playing in New York was completely different from what he had imagined.

He thought he would become a symbol of New York, but he ended up being constantly criticized like Ewing and others. This is part of playing in New York. Now that he is here, he has to get the ball to win, otherwise he will bear huge pressure from public opinion.

Marbury also had no special privileges in the team. He was ostracized as soon as he arrived. Madman often provoked him in the locker room. Alan Houston never acknowledged Marbury as the team boss and didn't even bother to evaluate him.

To put it bluntly, Marbury's qualifications are not enough, he has joined the Knicks for too short a time, and he cannot clearly see his position.

Marbury has changed three teams before and received very low evaluations. He has only played in the playoffs twice with the Timberwolves, both of which were eliminated in the first round. Such a suspected cancer guy just joined the Knicks and put on a posture of I am the savior of you scum. How could his teammates like him?

In fact, Marbury, who has the most beautiful statistics, is the main cause of the infighting in the Knicks locker room, not the innocent victim.

When he was the third-in-command of the Timberwolves, he couldn't make it past the first round of the playoffs and demanded a high salary; when he was the core, he led the Nets and Suns to fail to reach the playoffs; except for good statistics, he had no honors.

Changing teams frequently, as a newcomer, I started to show off to two people on the team who had played in the finals and were selected to the best team of the season...

This kind of person is crazy.

You may not believe it, but Sprewell is not as nervous as Marbury. He was arrogant in the Knicks because of his qualifications. After being traded to the Timberwolves, he knew that he was new and faced Garnett and Kawhi. Serge is very low-key.

After the game started, the Knicks, playing at home, unexpectedly suppressed the Suns.

Marbury singled out Guo Xu and made three mid-range shots, a breakthrough and a foul, two free throws, and 8 points and 3 assists. Houston performed better, making 3 of 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, one mid-range shot, and one foul. Made two foul shots and scored 13 points.

Although Houston's nickname is the Central Shooting King, he was actually the three-point king when he first entered the league. In two seasons with the Pistons, he shot over 40% from three-point range and made more than two three-pointers.

After being traded to New York, Houston met young coach Jeff Van Gundy. Van Gundy, who still had hair at the time, told him that shooting three-pointers was wrong and encouraged him to shoot more mid-range shots one step inside the three-point line, successfully transforming him into a shooter. Became the King of CIC.

Since Houston changed to mainly one-step jump shots inside the three-point line, Van Gundy found him very pleasing to the eye, increased his playing time, and guided him to practice low post shooting. Then experts said that Houston was tougher and at its peak, although his overall shooting percentage dropped a lot compared to when he was with the Pistons after taking fewer three-pointers. He only shot more than 45% in one season with the Knicks.

After Van Gundy was fired by the Knicks, Houston picked up the three-pointer again. This season, he averaged 5.5 attempts per game, made 2.2 goals, and hit 39.6%.

In fact, this is a star that has been delayed. If he had not been traded to New York, if he had met a coach who likes to attack and win, he would have been at least a player of Klay Thompson's level. As a result, his knees were brittle from practicing post-up play. .

In the second quarter, the two sides competed with the substitutes. The Knicks were led by Sprewell and had no tactics at all. After halftime, the players watched Madman play alone. His hands felt cold and he frequently hit jump shots. The Suns soon took the lead.

Kurt Thomas showed his strength by guarding Nene. But Witherspoon and Charlie Ward couldn't guard against the pick-and-roll of Alston and Kukoc. Once they were misaligned, Kukoc could easily score.

Kukoc has been in great form since he started playing for the Rockets. As an evasive big man, many of his moves are reminiscent of Nowitzki. He also received a lot of doubts after the Bulls disintegrated, and now he can finally prove his role in a strong team.

The Knicks fell apart in the second half, with stars holding each other back.

Old coach Don Cheney was helpless. In his original plan, it was best for Sprewell to play as a substitute and stagger Marbury's playing time, just like Kobe and Guo Xu played back then. If the run-in is good, a sharp counterattack can be launched in the second quarter.

But Sprewell did not accept substitutes at all. When the head coach talked to him, he put on a posture of If you dare to let me substitute, I will strangle you to death. He said that as soon as he entered the league, he would be a starter and a substitute. That's what sb does.

When he said this, his voice was loud, and several substitutes heard it. He also thought he was cool and mighty. With this guy's mind, it's really not surprising at all to go bankrupt after retiring.

Coach Don Cheney has no choice but to let the Trident start together, even if everyone can see that one basketball is not enough to score points.

The most reliable inside player for the Knicks is Kurt Thomas. He and Bo Outero are not effective when playing together. Both of them are inside players of average height, lack of weight, and strong mobility. The Knicks don't have a tall, meat-shield blue-collar man. McDyess was also a 206cm big man before, and he quickly became GG.

The person the Knicks are most capable of fighting against is the Big Spoon Witherspoon, who earns an annual salary of US$5 million. He is 198cm tall and weighs over 120 kilograms. This nickname is quite appropriate. He is really a colander on the defensive end. He has no problem switching to the perimeter. Speed, defense in the paint but no height. His biggest specialty is grabbing rebounds and racking up statistics.

Witherspoon played 7 minutes in this quarter. The entire Suns team made 10 three-pointers, including four by Guo Xu, two each by Joe Johnson and Kirisek, and one by Kukoc and Alston. The Suns defeated the Knicks 42-21 in a single quarter, and the game entered garbage time.

At the end of the quarter, Guo Xu played for a while and got 10 assists before leaving the game. He finished the game with 27 points and 10 assists.

Marbury scored 26 points, 4 rebounds and 7 assists. Judging from the statistics, he is not inferior to Guo Xu, but his evaluation cannot be higher.

The Knicks management considered trading Sprewell in the mid-term. Unfortunately, all teams knew that he was a thorn in the side. No team was willing to take over, let alone send stars or potential newcomers to the Knicks as bargaining chips.

Sprewell became a blacksmith again in this game, shooting 4 of 15 from the field. Only Joe Johnson did a good job in single defense. The Knicks management is determined to trade him. It doesn't matter if he can't get him back in the summer. If he can be purged from the team, it will be successful.
