Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 603 [How boring must God be? 】

When Guo Xu broke through the high board and hit the last shot, Kidd, who couldn't block the shot, became anxious. After landing, his expression looked like the bald uncle Nizam staring at Dastan, the Prince of Persia.

Kidd roared: It's impossible. You are just an amateur player. How can you be better than Iverson in one-on-one? Why don't you participate in the draft or play in the NBA if you are so good?

Of course Guo Xu couldn't tell him: Because I am a reborn person, and I can enter time loops and parallel worlds. The most important thing is that I am more handsome than you.

He pondered for a moment and replied calmly: It's hard to explain in words, why don't we talk about it when I come tomorrow?

Frank stepped forward excitedly and asked, Are you willing to sign with the Nets?

If you are willing, I have one request. Don't talk today. Everything will wait until tomorrow. I promise not to contact other teams.

Guo Xu made this request because he was afraid of trouble. He had talked with the Magic manager many times during the Orlando time loop. He knew clearly that he could not represent a team in a parallel world and play in the NBA. Wouldn't negotiating a contract be a waste of time?

Everyone feels that Guo Xu is full of mystery and cannot be explained by common sense. It is impossible for such a powerful person to be unknown. He should have become a star in high school.

Jason Collins, who usually has the best relationship with Richardson on the team, asked in a low voice: Who is your friend? Do you know he is so good?

I don't know how he practices. Richardson shook his head, also surprised.

He knows the truth but won't tell many people because no one will remember it. He just wants to enjoy this extraordinary and interesting day now, and helping Guo Xu keep secrets is part of it.

Guo Xu officially joined the training of the Nets. He performed very professionally in every event, and once again surprised everyone when they competed in groups.

Guo Xu and Richardson teamed up with three substitutes to defeat the four Nets starters including Kidd and Carter. The Nets can't guard Guo Xu from the outside. He can directly challenge Guo Xu, attract double teams and distribute the ball.

Moreover, Guo Xu is good at launching fast breaks and advances extremely fast. He can reach the frontcourt in a few seconds. As soon as his teammates rush forward, he narrows the gap in personal ability, and role players can also score.

Padgett and Nahba, who have played for the Rockets and can only serve as substitutes, both performed very well and had a high shooting percentage. Center Mark Jackson can play pick-and-roll with Guo Xu in positional battles, stand in the middle to attract defense, and catch the ball and make mid-range shots.

Kidd is going crazy,

Opponent Guo Xu was beaten so hard that he lost his temper and couldn't keep up with the speed. Although his speed has slowed down after minimally invasive surgery, he can still defend most point guards in NBA games with his experience and predictions. He can tell at a glance that Guo Xu's speed is top-notch, the kind of person he has the most trouble with.

How can this be an amateur player? He is clearly an MVP-level star!

A person with no reputation at all is so powerful. Is he possessed by God?

How boring must God be? Possessing such a person just to blow me up? Still in training... I'll admit it if I can't beat the finals. Is this how I play during training?

If he signs with the Nets, will the team still need me? I should be traded in the middle of this year, right?

After playing for a while, Guo Xu took the initiative to suggest teaming up with Kidd and switching to a shooting guard style.

Kidd is responsible for organizing the pass and covering the inside players. Guo Xu runs to get rid of the defense. After receiving the ball, he immediately takes action or looks for mismatch opportunities to break through, attracting double teams and then passing the ball to his teammates.

Coach Frank was even more surprised. Guo Xu's ability off the ball is much better than Carter and Richardson. It would be great if he played as a guest at No. 2 and started with Kidd. Kidd can defend the swingman, but Guo Xu only needs to guard the point guard well. Regardless of positional battles or quick counterattacks, the two guards can move the ball very well on the court, making it difficult for opponents to guard against them.

Carter felt a lot of pressure again. He was traded from the Raptors to the Nets, hoping to help the team win the championship and reach the peak of his life. If Guo Xu comes and can start with Kidd as two defenders, his position will become very awkward and he will have to compete with Richardson for the starting spot. He will definitely leave in the future.

As a shooting guard, Carter's defensive ability has been criticized, and his effectiveness in defending the 2nd position is not as good as Kidd. As long as the Nets manager has watched Guo Xu play, he will definitely be more willing to give a high-paying long-term contract to the enhanced version of Iverson.

The current salary cap of the league is only about 50 million US dollars, and the combined salary of Kidd, Carter and Richardson exceeds 40 million, which means that the team does not have ample salary space to sign outstanding role players. This season, the Nets only have the Three Musketeers and Krstic who can score in double figures. The fourth scoring point is veteran Clifford Robinson. It is difficult to make a difference in the playoffs.

So Carter also hopes that Guo Xu will join and have a better chance of realizing his championship dream. He had never even made it to the conference finals before.

Of course, what Carter could think of, the coaching staff also thought of. Frank called the team manager on the sidelines and said that he must sign Guo Xu as soon as possible.

Frank feels that the Nets will definitely win the championship with Guo Xu. The Nets cannot prevent Guo Xu from breaking through, and it is also difficult for other teams to prevent the inside line. What's more, they still have the Three Musketeers?

Guo Xu's current ability is so strong, he is an out-and-out MVP. As long as he has an All-Star partner by his side, he can win the championship. With two partners, the championship is very stable. The star trident offensive system is difficult to double-team. The Celtics, Lakers, and Heat have all proven this by winning championships.

Guo Xu is still dissatisfied with his performance. He played well in the Nets but was useless. When he returned to the Suns, he did not have Carter or Richardson as teammates. Josh Howard can't shoot three-pointers, Bell can only catch and shoot, and Ariza is still a blue-collar perimeter.

After attracting double teams and seeing his teammates open, he couldn't help but pass the ball without finishing it.

He is not familiar with the Nets in the time loop, so he cannot stand alone. How can he average 30+ shots per game after returning to the Suns? After he returns, the main tactic the Suns will try is Payton and Blake's organization, and he will be responsible for the crazy attack.

From the perspective of everyone on the Nets, Guo Xu is simply perfect, his tacit understanding with Kidd is amazing, and his offense is unstoppable.

Once Guo Xu catches the ball outside the three-point line, the big man must get in position and block it from the outside, otherwise he will shoot a three-pointer. Kostic and Collins will be passed by him as soon as they come out. The Nets' backup point guard Jacqui Vaughn is simply unable to compete with Guo Xu. He cannot defend against Guo Xu alone, and it is difficult to defend against inside cuts if he is misplaced.

After this training session, Nets general manager Rod Thorn hurried over. Frank felt that Guo Xu's strength was too exaggerated, and he must report it to the management immediately and let them collect all Guo Xu's information so that he could feel at ease after signing the contract.

Guo Xu had no choice but to chat with Rhodes for a while, and because he didn't want to waste time, he threw his driver's license directly to him.

I'll keep my driver's license with you first. I can't run away. I will definitely report tomorrow. You can discuss what kind of contract to sign. I don't have an agent. I have the final say.

You gave me your driver's license, how can you drive? Rhodes was shocked by Guo Xu's cheerfulness.

Jason is the driver today. We are elementary school classmates and haven't seen each other for a long time. We will go out to play this afternoon and evening. We will talk about playing basketball tomorrow. With him here, if I want to play in the NBA, I will definitely join the Nets.

Rhodes was relieved after receiving this guarantee. Unfortunately, they couldn't keep Guo Xu no matter what they did. Last time in Orlando, the Magic management was very happy that day. After that day, it was like a mirror.

Guo Xu was not embarrassed at all this time. He was used to a different life in the cycle. He would not hurt other people's feelings, and no one would blame him.
