Legend of Tomorrow

At the post-game press conference, Guo Xu commented on the game and said: I can't win the scoring title this season. In many games, we will decide the winner within three quarters, but I believe the Suns can hit the best record in the regular season.

Reporters all know that he is not talking big words. One game can tell how strong the Suns are this season. It is hard to imagine that this is the point difference of the opponents they faced in the second round last season. The Clippers did not even resist.

The reporter asked: Which team do you think is likely to threaten the Suns?

I don't know, which team's point guard can beat me, they will probably win the championship. Guo Xu said with a smile.

He was speaking from his heart. With the Suns' current lineup, even without him, few teams in the league can compete.

The core comparison is that Guo Xu is the one who beats his opponents these days. How can any point guard beat him? Chris Paul and Deron Williams are still very young. Nash is Guo Xu's most restrained person, and Iverson has long been ignored by him.

Roy attended the press conference and commented on Guo Xu: Jason told me how to play in the summer and asked me to watch the Suns game tape and imitate Joe Johnson, so I did it. The result is like today, I got a lot of easy shots.”

The reporter asked: What do you think?

Roy said excitedly: It's great. Playing next to him, it's easier for me to score than when I was in college. I really didn't expect this.

Last season's last pick in the first round, David Lee, had similar feelings. Roy had a deeper experience. The opponent's defense was mainly directed at Guo Xu and Stoudemire, and he had easy one-on-one opportunities and even open opportunities.

If Roy joins the Trail Blazers and becomes the team's outside core, he will face the opponent's defensive experts in every game. He is the player who wants to attract double-teams and assist his teammates. Now, he is facing the opponent's defensive weakness.

After Stoudemire praised his teammates in an interview, he talked about his injuries. At the end of last season, I felt I could play and did some recovery training, but the coaching staff decided to let me rest for a year. I also called Jason and asked Jason at the time. He said don't joke about your career. Let’s win a championship together this season. Now it’s time to show our chemistry and dominance.”

After the game, online fans commented on the game. Many people said, This season is over. No team can threaten the Suns' status. They have two more All-Stars than last season.

Stoudemire had 20 points and 5 rebounds, Marion had 16 points and 4 rebounds, and Roy had 17 points and 3 assists. The three of them only played 18 minutes. Seven members of the Suns team scored in double figures, and Stoudemire was the one who scored the most.

Scored 12 points in 6 minutes in the second quarter.

In this game, all the players on the Suns' 12-man roster got a chance to play and all scored. ESPN used incredible to describe the cooperation between Guo Xu and Roy, believing that Roy performed very maturely and did not look like a newcomer.

In fact, Roy is very mature. He was born on July 23, 1984. He is 5 months older than LeBron James, who has played in the NBA for three seasons, and has played in college for four years.

In another game on the same day, the Hawks beat the Heat by 40 points 108-68 at home.

Guo Xu's buddy Shark O'Neal is really on his last legs. Against Big Z Ilgauskas, he made 3 of 10 shots, 1 of 2 free throws, and only scored 7 points and 5 rebounds. The hidden dangers of the Heat Devil's training began to appear, and he was out of energy.

Pat Riley doesn't care about the age of the players. In the preseason training camp, even Alonzo Mourning, who had undergone kidney transplant surgery, had a lot of training. Riley also wanted Antoine Walker to lose weight and force him to perform high-intensity training.

The result was counterproductive. In the preseason, the Heat players were almost beaten to death by Riley. In the opening game, the collective physical strength was insufficient, and only Wade scored in double figures.

The next day, other NBA teams also appeared one after another.

Last season, Kobe Bryant, who was said to have forced the Lakers into the playoffs with his personal ability, did not play due to a sprained ankle. The Lakers blossomed more, with six players scoring in double figures and a 115-98 away victory over the Warriors.

Odom had 22 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists, Bogut had 23 points, 13 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks. Newly joined Artest had 17 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, and Monta Ellis also scored 16 points.

The Lakers don't look weak without Kobe, and Ellis' performance with the ball is surprising.

The Rockets once again disappointed the fans. Before the start of the season, many Chinese fans thought they would be the favorites to win the championship. In the summer, they introduced Spanoulis, Kirk Schneider, and Sefolosha to increase scoring points and strengthen them. flanked. Jared Jack's preseason performance is also much better than last season.

As a result, the Rockets lost to the Jazz in the opening game 105 to 110.

McGrady made 8 of 24 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, 8 of 13 free throws, 25 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists, and his shooting percentage was only 33.3%. Yao Ming made 8 of 12 shots, 6 of 7 free throws, and scored 22 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 blocks. His shooting percentage of 66.7% was exactly double that of McGrady.

After the game, Nelson criticized McGrady in the locker room, thinking that he was just playing randomly. Most of his shots were one-step pull-up jump shots that were not accurate. The Rockets should put the ball in Yao Ming's hands more and let him shoot.

Since Old Nelson joined the Rockets, he has begun arranging offensive tactics around the Yao Core. He has always been very dissatisfied with McGrady. He wanted the management to trade him out in the summer, but boss Alexander vetoed it. Alexander likes McGrady and thinks he can return to the top.

The highlight of the Rockets was Spanoulis, who scored 13 points and 3 assists in his debut. Nelson arranged for him to be the sixth man, responsible for holding the ball in the second quarter, and having insiders to play pick-and-roll with him.

Spanoulis' nickname is European Kobe. Just by looking at the nickname, you can tell that his specialty is attacking with the ball, and he is a combo guard who prefers the No. 2 position. Nelson appreciates his ability and gave him many performance opportunities in the preseason and will not let him return to Greece.

In his previous life, Spanoulis failed to succeed in the NBA because he met the amazing Jeff Van Gundy. He never shoots three-pointers from the corner. Van Gundy doesn't care about this. Just stand in the corner and catch the ball and shoot. Can't make a shot? You are such a piece of trash.

Not to mention European Kobe, even if Kobe fell into Van Gundy's hands and was assigned to shoot three-pointers from the corner, he would be useless and his shooting rate would not reach 30%.

Last season, several strong teams won the first game. The lineups of the Pistons and Cavaliers were almost unchanged from last season. They relied on the original core to play. Experts do not believe that they can threaten the Suns.

The Western Nuggets got off to a good start by defeating the Clippers with 14 points. Iverson, J.R. Smith, and Anthony all scored 20 points on the outside. Nene came off the bench and performed averagely, scoring 10 points and 7 rebounds.

The Nuggets are considered a team that can compete with the Suns. They are led by two super scorers. Nene also recovered well and staged an alley-oop dunk in the game.

The Spurs defeated the Mavericks in the same conference on the road in the first game 107-91.

The Mavericks' wing defense still has its fatal weakness, which is nothing to be afraid of. They only renewed Nowitzki and Jason Terry's contracts during the offseason. Because of Dampier's junk contract, the Mavericks' salary space is locked and they are unable to introduce wing stars in the free market. Not selecting Josh Howard changed the fate of the Mavericks.

Six players from the Spurs scored in double figures. Granger's team scored 15 points in their debut and hit two three-pointers. He and Michael Finley were responsible for leading the bench and ensuring the offensive firepower.

The Spurs also dug up the more mobile blue-collar center Francisco Elson to stabilize the defense, and their strength has been significantly improved.

November 3rd is the focus game, the Spurs open their home game against the Suns...
