Legend of Tomorrow

Schroeder gritted his teeth and took a three-pointer from an open position, and the ball went in. 48 to 35.

Schroeder breathed a sigh of relief. Guo Xu's non-prevention put more pressure on him than others' strict precautions. It doesn't matter if he can't make a shot despite being heavily guarded. It can be said that his opponent guarded him well, and he can boast of his fighting spirit and courage to take shots. With Guo Xu's defense, if he can't make a shot, his shortcomings will be completely exposed. Players who don't have a basket are afraid of this.

Guo Xu also breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Schroeder would hit the iron in an open position. After Nurkic came on the court, it would be difficult for the Hawks to grab offensive rebounds.

When the Lakers attacked, Guo Xu took turns covering the two inside players in the half. He shot a three-pointer from more than one meter away from the right three-point line. Under severe interference, Gordon grabbed the backcourt rebound.

Guo Xu doesn't need his teammates to grab offensive rebounds. He just takes quick shots and gambles on touch, which is the fastest way to increase his points. Unfortunately, in the past two years, the league has been stricter about illegal screens than in the past, otherwise he would have had better chances to take action.

Not only the elevator door screen, but also the inside moving screen may be called for a foul. As the league enters the small ball era, more and more players are good at shooting three-pointers, and it is imperative to change the scale of whistleblowing. Otherwise, each team mainly shoots three-pointers and does not hit the penalty area. The game is just about three-pointers. So what's the point?

Teague will not move endlessly when facing Booker. Booker lacks defensive experience and is prone to fake moves, and his speed is also at a disadvantage. Teague broke through easily and hit the basket from the left side. 48 to 37.

Tyronn Lue deliberately left holes, and by the way, he could also train the defensive abilities of young players. Booker does not need to let go, he is really good at defense. This season he is an important rotation player, averaging 26 minutes per game and focusing on training.

When the Lakers attacked, Guo Xu attracted double-teams and then split the ball and started running. This time he ran to the right and failed to get rid of the defense. As soon as he caught the ball, Porter and Schroeder were double-teamed. He immediately passed the ball to Carter, who was open. Carter was empty outside the three-point line and did not shoot, and brought it into the three-point line. At the same time, Guo Xu ran towards the center.

Thackeray blocked Schroeder, and Carter attracted Porter's defensive illness and distributed the ball to the center. Guo Xu feinted with the ball, and Gordon pounced to defend the three-pointer.

Although Gordon didn't take off and would not be fouled, he raised his arm with his center of gravity too high. Guo Xu got past him with a change of direction, darted to the left and entered the three-point line, relying on the catching up Schroeder to close. The ball is added with a jump step, and a 45-degree left-hand high hit the board for a layup.

He squeezed Schroeder so hard that he couldn't jump. Teague let go of Booker and was a little slow to chase and block the shot from behind. He hit the board high and avoided Split's cover and block, and the ball fell lightly into the basket. basket.

50 to 37, personal 41st point.

Yu Jia shouted: Guo Xu went crazy in this fight! Faced with a three-person double-team, he took the photo without fail!

Zhang Lili said: Four and a half minutes into the second quarter,

Guo Xu only missed one shot and scored all 19 points for his team. This goal is getting more and more interesting.

Hollins called another short timeout, replaced Split, and replaced Zach Randolph to strengthen the offense and play small ball tactics.

This adjustment is a bit confusing. In fact, Hollins makes substitutions habitually. He feels that Randolph should be played as he is the core of the team. He ignored that Randolph was a defensive black hole, and it would definitely be more difficult to restrict Guo Xu.

Some coaches are considered to be of poor quality because no matter what opponent they face, their starting lineup, substitution ideas and even substitution time are fixed for each game. If there are traces to follow, they are particularly easy to target. The Van Gundy brothers and Larry Brown back then were all such coaches and were destined to be eliminated by the league.

Of course, not replacing Split will not have much effect.

After the Spurs sent Splitter away, many people felt that the Spurs had lost money. His annual salary in 2015-16 was 8.5 million, which didn't seem very expensive. Now it seems that he has left the system and is just an ordinary blue-collar worker.

Split can only defend. On the offensive end, he mainly relies on sliding down the baseline to hit the basket. His low-post footwork and hook shots are average, and his movements are stiff. In the Spurs, Duncan could often cooperate with him in passing and passing, and his teammates also opened up space. But in the Hawks, he was half useless.

The inside support ability he showed in the Spurs cannot be used in the Hawks. He can't catch the ball a few times in a game. What support can he use? He played a few minutes, missed a single shot, didn't score a single point, didn't grab a rebound, and all his stats were zero.

The Hawks attacked, Schroeder and Randolph broke through the pick-and-roll and missed a layup. Nurkic grabbed the rebound and immediately passed the ball long.

The Lakers often play a rugby-like tactic. The inside players grab the backcourt rebounds and use themselves as quarterbacks. They don't need to worry about other people. They just look for running back Guo Xu. He will definitely go down quickly.

Guo Xu has always been a point guard who strives to launch fast breaks, rarely grabbing backcourt rebounds and taking advantage of his speed. After more than half a season of running-in, his teammates have formed a tacit understanding with him, and the focus on long passes is also targeted.

Players in the post will be happy to play in this way. Guo Xu focuses on scoring. If he doesn't grab rebounds with them, they can still assist. Not only Horford, but other big men in the Lakers system can also show their passing ability.

Nurkic's strength was a bit strong and he threw the ball to the basket. Guo Xu sprinted in a straight line, half-turned, caught the basketball steadily, turned around and scored. 52 to 37, personal 43rd point.

After Randolph was out of position, he was already out of sight. The defender rushed in and Guo Xu didn't follow, so he waited for a fast break. After he took the lead at the start, his opponent couldn't catch up.

Zhang Lili said in disbelief: The Lakers completed an offense in less than three seconds in this round. Guo Xu immediately made a layup after catching up with the ball. It was too fast.

Yu Jia said: Some experts in the United States have analyzed Guo Xu's speed and believe that he may be able to run under 10 seconds and participate in the Olympic sprint competition. He should be able to improve if he trains systematically. If this is true, then he is terrible. ”

Yes, he is already 34 years old. How fast could he have run if he had trained seriously when he was young?

No one had heard that Guo Xu had trained hard, and no one knew how long he had been in a time loop with a cheater. On Earth 1, everyone felt that Guo Xu was abnormal and had achieved his current results without working hard.

If he hadn't been so famous, scientists would have really come to him. Now they're just taking a few tubes of blood during his physical examination to study and see if they can create Captain America and the Winter Soldier...

Less than half of the second quarter, Guo Xu has already set his personal first-half scoring record this season, and the audience applauded for a long time.

Guo Xu directed Booker to switch defenses and asked him to defend Schroeder, while he put Teague two meters away.

Teague's three-pointer was more accurate than Schroeder's. Guo Xu asked Booker to find another person to practice defense. Why are you so close to him if you don't let him shoot a three-pointer?

Booker: (0_0)

Teague, like many defenders facing Guo Xu, is in a dilemma. If you don't take an open shot, it's a waste of time and it's embarrassing. If you don't make an open shot, it's even more embarrassing. If you score a goal, it's still embarrassing.

Because the score will not open quickly if the score is scored, Guo Xu will play for a long time. If he plays for a long time, scoring 60 points is a small matter, but scoring more than 80 points will be recorded in history.

Teague suspected that Guo Xu would score more than 80 points in this game. His shooting was so accurate and his breakthrough was so powerful that he was impossible to defend.

After a brief thought, Teague decided to take action. Rondo was so exposed by Guo Xu that he couldn't get a big contract. In order to get the next high salary, he had to show his shooting ability no matter what. He renewed his contract in 2017, and Schroeder can renew his contract in advance after this season. The two have similar styles and there is competition within the team.

Teague took aim at the ball and took a three-pointer without panicking at all, because Guo Xu would not come up to interfere with him. Taking aim can indeed improve the shooting rate. During the team training, his three-point shooting rate was not low, and the ball was scored, 52 to 40.
