Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 757 [Disastrous defeat, the 5th time loop! 】

On May 30, the Suns lost 84-109 at home by 25 points and were on the verge of elimination.

Many experts believe that the Suns will be out in the next game. They have a 90% chance of losing to the Spurs. They will not be able to cooperate at all in this key battle.

The biggest problem in playing like this is the experience of the players. Both Roy and Lowry are rookies. They cannot face the battle with a normal heart and are burdened with the mentality of wanting to win and being afraid of losing.

It was difficult for Roy to adjust to his condition, and Bowen had figured out his offensive rhythm. Roy's performance in this game was even worse. He played 38 minutes and made 2 of 10 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 4 free throws, 7 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, with a shooting percentage of 20%.

Now no one is touting Roy's leadership qualities. He can become the core outside player on an ordinary playoff team. The Suns are a dynasty team. How can a rookie be the leader of such a team?

Previously, the media and experts were all swarming in, wanting to praise and kill Roy. This is what they like to do.

Stoudemire will definitely be double-teamed in the penalty area. Marion also mainly attacks the basket. Duncan guards the penalty area. Only one of them can perform. When Marion's shooting ability declined, the two positions overlapped.

Thomas, Bell, Parker and others can shoot three-pointers, but they cannot be the core. They can only be efficient by catching and shooting.

Simply put, the Suns lack someone who can distribute the ball to the right teammates and someone who can connect the game. Roy's organization is flawed, and his three-point shooting is also unstable. After practicing for a season, he still mainly shoots from both sides, and the three points in the middle and bottom line are useless.

Just as Guo Xu thought, Bowen would deliberately put him in an inaccurate position to take advantage of Roy's weakness in shooting. Roy would be seriously disturbed if he made a strong shot against Bowen, who is 201cm tall, in his exact position.

Fans discussed on the Internet that the Suns could not win because they were missing Guo Xu. Even if Guo Xu plays with only one leg and does not break through, he can still lead the Suns to defeat the Spurs because he can shoot three-pointers and organize passes.

Guo Xu's legs no longer hurt recently. His symptoms were mild, and he did not need surgery or plastering. He was only treated with medication. He recovered quickly and can walk, but strenuous exercise may cause problems. If he plays in Game 6, it will be Children's Day on June 1st, and he will only be raised for 20 days after playing all night.

Even if Guo Xu eats a very particular diet and takes the highest-grade medicine, this is too fast. It is still 10 days before the theoretical fastest comeback time, but he can't wait any longer.

Guo Xu always thought it was silly for Roy to play injured when he was with the Trail Blazers.

It's a series of bets on one's own future. Now the same problem falls on him, and he finds it difficult to hold back as long as the players' desire to win is strong. Roy played with an injury just for the first round of the playoffs. This is the Western Conference finals. After this level, one step forward will be four consecutive championships.

Tomorrow is the 31st. He has one day to think about whether to come back early. For this, he has to discuss with the coaching staff and team doctors.

Guo Xu was a little depressed. He couldn't sleep and forced himself to go to bed very early. He had to cheer up tomorrow. After finally falling asleep, he started to dream.

This was a very clear dream. He dreamed that he was injured and participated in the game. He was not fast and rarely broke through. He assisted his teammates with gorgeous passes and helped the team win the game with three-pointers. Both combat and fast attack are smooth.

He dreamed that the Suns still played a run-and-gun game, but he did not participate in the fast break. Instead, after receiving the ball in the backfield, he sent precise long passes like a football quarterback to assist his teammates, who rushed ahead.

He is also responsible for organizing positional battles, and the task of breaking through with the ball is given to Roy. He looks for running teammates on the outside to distribute the ball.

After eliminating the Spurs 4-3, Guo Xu woke up from his dream before returning to the locker room.

He opened his eyes, feeling particularly energetic and thinking clearly.

He had experienced this feeling countless times, and he immediately thought that he had entered a time loop again?

Guo Xu looked at the clock on the wall. It was six o'clock. But he recognized this room, it was the guest room of Robert Smith's house. Recently, he has been living here to enjoy his vacation. He can play with friends and discuss movies.

Megan Fox was lying next to him. Because she was afraid of touching his legs after falling asleep and aggravating the injury, she slept on her side because the distance was far away and the bed was wider.

Guo Xu was a little unsure. Is this a time loop?

What if I just had a dream that I wanted to enter a time loop, and the time I woke up at exactly 6 o'clock was because of coincidence?

Try running and jumping? If I cycle, will all my injuries be cured overnight? That would be awesome. Once the cycle is out, I should be able to lead the team to kill the Spurs immediately.

Guo Xu got up, put on his sweatpants, walked for a while, and jogged for a while. It was okay for him to jump a few times, but he didn't dare to jump much. It would be funny if he was seriously injured.

Then he stopped trying. It was good news that his legs didn’t hurt after exercising for a while. He planned to call his colleagues in the morning and propose a comeback to see what they said.

Even if he has to play against the Spurs tomorrow night, he doesn't need to practice today, he can just play. And he doesn't plan to return to Phoenix to catch a plane with his teammates. He can directly take Robert's special plane to play the game in San Antonio.

After paying attention, Guo Xu continued walking and took a breath of fresh air. His legs never hurt. He had breakfast with Megan at around eight o'clock, and then called team doctor Thomas Carter.

Carter refused without thinking. No, it's too risky for you to come back to play in 20 days. It's risky to come back for a month. Your bones are not strong enough to do strenuous exercise. You have to adapt slowly. I suggest you take it for a month and a half.

But if I don't come back, the Suns may be eliminated tomorrow. If I don't fight now, when will I fight? The fractured fibula will not affect my future competitive status. If I can't persist, I can just continue to support it. Give it a try Try, I will admit it even if I lose.

“If I say no, it’s no.”

I'll go back and take a picture for you to see, and then you can make a decision?

Don't look at it, it won't work in 20 days.

The two chatted for a full 10 minutes, but Guo Xu could not convince Carter. He allowed Stoudemire and Marion to rest for a whole year last season, and now of course he can also let Guo Xu rest for a month and a half. He is a stubborn doctor who has to consider the health of his patients.

Of course there are benefits to listening to Carter. Stoudemire recovered very well. After recovering from injury, his playing time only dropped, but his offensive efficiency did not drop. In the playoffs, he averaged 25.5 points per game and was the Suns' leading scorer.

Even if Guo Xu returns to Phoenix today, he still won't be able to play if Carter doesn't let him. Will he call D'Antoni and ask him to put him on the roster when he signs up? Will he sit on the bench and wait for tomorrow's game? Will he come on when his teammates really can't stand it?

Meghan, what do you think I should do? Guo Xu ran out of ideas.

Megan smiled and said: I think you should do nothing and let your teammates play. If you lose, lose, don't make fun of your body. I know that four consecutive championships is an amazing achievement, but I believe in you There will be opportunities to do it in the future, so there is no need to risk it this time.”

Can it be done in the future? Guo Xu thought for a while and nodded.

He believes that bystanders know better and there is no need for him to have his own way. So, he spent the day as usual, chatting and eating with friends, relaxing and recuperating without going out, and went to bed early in the evening.

After a dreamless night, Guo Xu opened his eyes and found that it was six o'clock sharp. He checked the date on his phone and saw the 31st.

He just entered a time loop. This time it's not a parallel world...
