Legend of Tomorrow

When the Lakers attacked, Smush Parker saw that Guo Xu couldn't defend, so he dribbled to the left side where he was most accurate in training and reached a 60-degree pull-up three-pointer. Since he knew that Guo Xu was not serious about guarding, there was no need for him to lead to the right.

Parker ensured accuracy in a familiar position and made another three-pointer, 12-11.

Parker made 3 of 4 three-pointers at the start and scored 9 points. His performance was eye-catching. In Guo Xu's previous life, this was also Parker's peak season.

After the goal, Guo Xu also applauded Parker a few times, and the cameraman just gave him a close-up shot.

Barkley smiled: Jason can not only drive his teammates, but also occasionally his opponents. Many point guards have outstanding statistics against the Suns, and some have set a career-high scoring record. He seems to be afraid that winning will be too easy. Create opponents for yourself.”

Smith said: After winning three consecutive regular season MVPs last season and winning the FMVP, his mentality is a little different. His self-confidence is unparalleled. He believes that he can defeat anyone.

During the Suns' attack, Guo Xu continued to demonstrate the source of his strong confidence, which is his terrifying personal ability.

His teammates pulled away, and he and David Lee played a pick-and-roll in the midfield. Haslem entered the low post and attracted Bogut's defense. Odom failed to defend near the three-point line in the middle.

Guo Xu changed direction to the right and relied on the screen to get rid of Parker. He made a three-pointer from two meters outside the three-point line and returned one. 15 to 11.

Jackson shouted to Odom on the sidelines, Get out! He could see that Guo Xu could no longer be restricted by single defense and had to be double-teamed, even if he was still far from the three-point line.

Guo Xu changed his tactics again on the defensive end. When Parker came to the left, he stepped forward and got close to him.

The left side is the weak side of the Lakers. There are two typical routines in the triangle offense. One is the strong side forming a triangle. The low star attracts double teams and then distributes the ball to role players who are good at shooting. The other is the weak side of the star receiving the ball and playing in isolation. .

The Big Three of the Lakers were invincible back then, relying on these two points. As long as the stars can ensure one-on-one efficiency, they will win. The premise is that there are at least two stars. Guo Xu knows the triangle offense very well and can understand his opponent's thoughts and predict his opponent's next move.

As soon as he comes forward to press, Parker has two options. Pass to Odom or Bogut. The probability of passing to the low post is definitely higher, because the possibility of making mistakes in direct lateral transfer without a pick-and-roll is higher.

Sure enough, Parker relied on his height advantage to lob the ball to the left low post.

Bogut caught the basketball,

It was as incredible as an electric shock, like a miracle, passing through his life, unlike any other meaning, this was the green light, the only one.

He leaned against David Lee twice, turned around in the middle, and scored with a hook shot from close range due to his size advantage. 15 to 13.

David Lee played power forward in college and was built as a power forward. After arriving with the Suns, he often played as a center. He obviously had weaknesses in the defense of the penalty area and could not guard against Bogut.

When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu relied on a screen to catch the ball and went to the weak side, holding the ball and challenging Parker. This time, Kobe couldn't bear it anymore and double-teamed him. Guo Xu broke through to the bottom line and saw Kobe with his peripheral vision, jumped up with his right hand and passed the ball to the bottom corner.

When Guo Xu doesn't have the ball, Bell will run up the right side to make room for him. When he attacks with the ball, Bell will not go anywhere in the bottom corner. He is very well prepared, catches the ball, shoots a three-pointer, and hits the net hollowly. 18 to 13.

The applause of the home fans was even louder. The Suns' offensive efficiency was terrible. The only one that missed was Guo Xu's long three-pointer. Today Guo Xu combines sudden shooting and shooting, which is more difficult to defend than him who simply wants to score high points.

The Lakers attacked, and Parker moved to the right this time, preparing to lob the ball to Kobe. The boss had not touched the ball for several rounds, and Guo Xu would not let him take the shot anyway, so it was time to pass.

Just as Parker was thinking about it, he realized that Guo Xu had taken two more steps back and was double-teaming Kobe without the ball. He was double-teamed. He was double-teamed...

Everyone on the Lakers suddenly discovered that if Guo Xu's method was used by other teams, it would be difficult for Kobe to play in the low post. It's hard for Kobe, who is really defensive, to catch the ball in his favorite position.

Parker couldn't force the pass and got an open space again. He chose to shoot a three-pointer. This time the rhythm was not good. David Lee blocked Bogut, and Haslem grabbed the backcourt rebound and passed it to Guo Xu to launch a counterattack.

The Suns completed an attack in 4 seconds. Guo Xu received the ball and advanced to the frontcourt to shoot a three-pointer. His shot selection was not very good. Parker's interference was in place, but no one thought that his play was unreasonable and they were not used to it. Weird.

Odom grabbed the rebound, and Kobe asked for the ball in the backcourt. He dribbled the ball across half court, no longer giving Parker an easy shot, and singled out Bell's big two-pointer one step inside the three-point line.

In the second half of the game, there was another strange scene on the court. Except for Blake and Vujacic, the other four players of the Suns all shrank near the penalty area and blocked the penalty area. Kobe was often double-teamed by two people in the low post and forced his shots. He did not pass the ball and was left open. Parker on the perimeter.

Moreover, Parker, a point guard, no longer knows what he is doing on the court. Kobe always asks for the ball in the backcourt as soon as the baseline ball is released. Parker can only pass it to him, otherwise he will have to receive the death glare.

Which one is more accurate, an open shot or a forced shot to break a double team, most people can figure it out with their toes. In the second half, Kobe controlled the ball, the Lakers' offensive efficiency dropped significantly, and the point difference quickly widened.

The Suns led 39-25 in the first quarter.

Guo Xu made 5 of 9 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, and scored 12 points and 7 assists; Kobe Bryant made 4 of 10 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 12 points, 2 rebounds, and 1 assist.

In the second quarter, both sides sent substitutes. The Suns' five players were Payton, Ariza, Howard, Jones, and Varejao.

Lakers five: Monta Ellis, Devin George, Luke Walton, Brian Cook, Turiaf.

The difference between the two sides quickly widened to more than 20 points. The Suns had clear tactics under Payton's organization. He and Varejao played pick-and-rolls, and after clearing the inside, they looked for opportunities to pass to their teammates. Howard was responsible for weak-side singles, and the other two Ka La is responsible for catching the ball and shooting three-pointers.

When defending, Ariza mainly defends Ellis, and the others join forces to defend the penalty area.

After Butler was injured and absent, the Lakers' lineup was no better than in the previous life. Even though they had the No. 1 pick, they still selected Ellis in the second round.

Ellis is a tattooed gangster who is a cancer in the locker room and on the court. He just fights randomly on the court and has no tactics.

This guy dared to challenge Kobe Bryant during training, and his personal abilities were impressive. As soon as he comes on the court, he shoots frequently. However, with a height of 191cm and a weight of 84kg, he has obvious shortcomings in playing shooting guard. The coaching staff hopes that he will transform, but he obviously cannot. If he could control the tempo, he wouldn't have been drafted in the second round.

It is really important for players to have a suitable tactical system. In Guo Xu's previous life, Ellis joined the Warriors. He was very lucky and met Nelson, who did not pay attention to defense. He became a member of the team in the second season and was a very suitable partner with Baron Davis.

The Warriors don't need Ellis to organize, he just needs to use his strong impact and actively attack fast breaks. On the defensive end, Davis can also be responsible for guarding the 2nd position, and Ellis is responsible for defending the fast point guard.

It's different in the Lakers. Zen Master Jackson's tactics are mainly positional warfare, supplemented by fast breaks. There is no point guard to partner with Ellis, and his position is the No. 1 position.

Just as the Suns don't send two guards and Guo Xu can't play without the ball, Ellis is fast and can't play fast breaks. The Lakers lack people to deliver cannonballs to him.

Ellis's organization of receiving the ball in the backfield is even worse. He only knows one rhythm, which is to run forward, facing cold eyes and ridicule... He never looks back, and doesn't care who he loves you. His teammates can't refuse, and he is lost below. Snow border.
