Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 640 [Guo Xu without goals, Kobe without confidence]

Guo Xu went to the locker room to take a shower and then attended the press conference. He was the only protagonist tonight.

Regardless of whether the Suns players or coaches were interviewed, the reporters all asked about topics related to Guo Xu.

David Lee said: It's an honor to be his teammate. He is like a scoring machine, the league's top shooter. Although many people say he has not surpassed Jordan, I think he is the best right now. It’s his time.”

D'Antoni said: I have complete trust in Jason. He has proven countless times that he has the ability to dominate the game. We have the best offensive players in the world, so it is not surprising that he puts up any data.

The reporter asked: Do you think Jason's scoring ability can surpass Jordan or even Chamberlain?

D'Antoni gave an affirmative answer: Yes, I think Jason is better. No one is his template. He just needs to do what he likes.

Payton, who scored 4 points and 13 assists, also attended the press conference. He said: I am a fan of Jason now. I was a fan of his before coming to the Suns. You will know how good he is just by looking at my assists. I have never felt as comfortable as I do now.

Without waiting for reporters to ask questions, Payton continued: Jason is better than Jordan. Jordan should be grateful that Jason was born five years later, otherwise the Bulls would not have won three consecutive championships for the second time, even if he had Pippen and Rodman by his side. Harper, Kukoc.”

Payton was almost openly mocking Jordan for relying on teamwork to win the championship. In many cases, Payton's big mouth is more eye-catching than his performance on the court. He particularly hated Jordan. He dared to shout at Jordan on the court: You can only serve as a substitute for 'Glider' Drexler. Now that Jordan has retired, he has no scruples about being black.

Many reporters surrounded Guo Xu and asked him to express his feelings.

Guo Xu smiled and said: My shooting was too accurate today. That's my feeling. I feel like I can score no matter what I shoot. Sure enough, I can score even with random throws in the midfield.

The reporter asked: Many people say you don't train hard. Have you ever found time to train more?

Guo Xu replied: I trained a lot when I was with the Lakers, but later I practiced less because I had more things to do off the court. I took the time to practice acting, singing, filming commercials, and attending movie premieres... In a few days, I will return I want to be the best man. Even if I have nothing to do, I still want to stay at home with my girlfriend. Others must not imitate me, I don’t want to set a bad example.”

In reality, this is indeed Guo Xu's life. He didn't lie, he just didn't tell the whole truth.

If he said that he had gone to other worlds to practice football in his dream,

I lived the same day over and over again, but no one believed me. Just kidding, isn’t this the plot of your just-released movie?

In order not to be regarded as a madman, he had to pretend to be B when he opened his mouth. He really couldn't keep a low profile.

The reporter asked: After this game, you have averaged more than 50 points per game. Did you ever think you would perform like this?

I never thought about it. I have no goals in terms of data and record. I just play as I want and treat every regular season game as a friendly match. If I can win, it's great. If I lose, it doesn't matter.

The reporters don’t know how to comment, what the hell is a friendly match? Whose friendly match abuses the opponent like you do?

None of them could imagine what it was like to play in a college friendly match that Guo Xu participated in during the cycle. It was much more exaggerated than playing against the Raptors. If he had scored like that with a Mexican team, he might have been shot dead before leaving the gym. The opponent would have had to fire dozens of shots and shoot him in the head to get rid of his hatred.

The reporter asked Guo Xu to evaluate the Raptors' defense, but he responded perfunctorily. He won't add insult to injury, not to mention that the Raptors still have his college teammate Peterson.

Everyone in the Raptors attending the press conference felt that this was a nightmare, even Bosh who scored 26 points and 11 rebounds and Mike James who scored 43 points. Not to mention others, the Suns' wing defense is very strong, and the swingman's performance is average.

A group of reporters gathered around Raptors coach Sam Mitchell to let him express his thoughts. His statement was similar to when he watched Kobe Bryant score 81 points. He said that he had tried every means to arrange for players to double-team Guo Xu, but to no avail.

He tried his best to let Guo Xu get the ball easily. He is not qualified as a defensive assistant and is far worse than Larry Drew of the Suns.

Guo Xu likes what Mitchell said. It will make him appear stronger. When someone says that his data is fake, fans can refute it.

The next day, many players and coaches accepted interviews with the media.

Unlike last time when Guo Xu got a high score, the onlookers were not surprised and didn't have so much emotion. Many people's attitude is like Just get it, the record will be his after all.

Repeatedly, Guo Xu achieved high scores for the third time in a single season, and the audience became a little numb.

Scorers in the league now dislike Guo Xu.

Last time Iverson said that he would try to score high points against the Knicks, but he didn't say anything this time. If he wants to compete with Guo Xu in scoring, there are too many teams trying to score high points. His current highest score is only 60 points, of which 24 points come from free throws.

He is also a small guard with strong scoring ability. Guo Xu completely suppressed Iverson, which caused him to have fewer fans and the sales of sneakers were also affected.

Kobe was even more depressed. He scored 50 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists in the game on the same day, leading the Lakers to a difficult 112-109 victory over the Clippers in the same city, but he received negative reviews.

At the press conference, no reporter praised Kobe for his strength. Instead, they asked him to evaluate Guo Xu and told him that Guo Xu scored better data. Kobe was stern and refused to comment on his former teammate.

When online fans discussed the game, they didn't think Kobe was very good. Many people said that he used a terrifying number of shots in exchange for points. Because he made 17 of 41 field goals, 7 of 15 three-pointers, and 9 of 10 free throws. His overall shooting percentage was only 41.5%. His low-post turnaround and fadeaway jumper was a three-pointer, but his long-range shooting was beyond his level.

Kobe, who has found touch on the outside, doesn't like to shoot more three-pointers. He has to rush to the basket and let his teammates inside get out. Bogut played 40 minutes, making 3 of 5 shots, 6 of 7 free throws, and scored 12 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 assists.

Kobe Bryant's refusal to comment on Guo Xu also became one of the reasons why fans disliked him and thought he was petty.

Why does Kobe always act like he hates Jason Guo? Who is to blame for his own inability to score more points? The Internet is full of comments like this.

Someone else analyzed: Kobe now just wants to compete with Jason Guo. He is second only to his opponent in shooting attempts, but his average of 31 points per game is the limit. He is not capable of dominating the game like Jason, just like he was not capable back then. Just like O'Neal.

The only thing Kobe is better than Jason is his defense. I think he should also be selected for the All-Defensive Team this year because he is the only person in the league who can guard Shacklebolt and Jason. In both seasons with the Lakers, Jason had to 20 points and very few assists. All the point guards who played with Kobe had very few assists. Is there a better defensive player than him?

Kobe had a bad relationship with Bogut on the team. He was a guard and always overlapped with the center position. I think the countdown has begun for Bogut to leave the Lakers. If he doesn't leave, he will definitely be useless.

Kobe went crazy after reading these comments, but he had no confidence in leading the Lakers to defeat the Suns. He couldn't understand how Guo Xu managed to achieve a good record with the remnant Suns. If he was asked to lead this Suns, he would have no confidence in making the playoffs.

Now, he has no confidence to compete with Guo Xu for the scoring title. That is more difficult than surpassing Jordan, who only scored 37.1 points...
