Legend of Tomorrow
Chapter 767 [Defending the Black Hole, Evenly Matched]
The Spurs attacked, and Parker and Duncan played pick-and-rolls and failed to get rid of Bell. Duncan also followed up with Stoudemire on an air cut.
Parker passed the ball to Duncan. Duncan took the ball with his back to the right and took a step, then passed the ball to Parker who was running.
Bowen set an off-ball screen for Parker from the side. Guo Xu was slower but still had defensive awareness. He immediately retreated inside to bypass the screen and pursue Parker.
He made perfect judgment and blocked Parker without warning. Bell bypassed the screen and formed a double team. Parker passed the ball to Bowen in the corner. Guo Xu immediately turned around and ran to the corner without any hesitation. Without jumping, he stretched out his hand to interfere at close range.
Bowen did not grasp the intensity of the ball and missed the basket.
**Vicci knew as soon as he saw Guo Xu's choice how strong his defensive awareness was. He anticipated the Spurs' tactics and responded quickly. Although he didn't jump, he was enough to defend people who were not good at offense.
**Vicci felt uncomfortable when he thought about giving up Guo Xu in the second round. What he missed was a dynasty.
After watching the ball pop up, Guo Xu immediately ran near the penalty area and got rid of Bowen.
If he goes on a fast break at this time, he will get the opportunity to hit Bowen out of position. He retreats near his own penalty area, and Bowen stops chasing, allowing Parker to face off against Guo Xu.
Stoudemire grabbed the backcourt rebound and passed it to Guo Xu from close range. Without any hesitation, he immediately passed the ball to the frontcourt with one hand.
Parker came towards Guo Xu, and Bowen had just left the bottom corner when Marion rushed down and rushed to the front. Guo Xu's passing arc was very high and fell into the hands of his teammates just right.
Marion didn't even need to slow down, he kept running forward and just in time to catch the ball with both hands, he took a step forward and dunked the basketball with both hands.
9 to 5, Guo Xu’s fourth assist.
Barkley shouted: This is simply a pass from the quarterback. Once Jason comes on the court, the Suns can counterattack quickly again.
Smith said: This is the strength of the league's number one player. He can drive the whole team despite being injured. He made all 4 shots in a row in the opening game.
**Vicci frowned on the sidelines. As soon as Guo Xu came on the court, the Suns players showed their talents. If he doesn't play, the Suns players' personal abilities, although very strong, will be scattered and there are ways to limit them.
The Spurs attacked, and Bowen provided a screen for Parker again. This time Parker passed Guo Xu with his speed.
Get to the basket and score a layup before the defense comes up inside. 9 to 7.
When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu and Stoudemire played a pick-and-roll, dribbling the ball toward Duncan, pulling the ball and taking three steps slow. It looked like he was doing Tai Chi. Duncan couldn't ignore him. After taking two steps, Guo Xu passed the ball from behind to the middle.
He didn't look at anyone at all, knowing that Stoudemire would cut through the air, but Parker wouldn't switch to defend inside and couldn't block the air-cutting route. Everything was as he expected, Parker did not block the passing route, Stoudemire caught the ball and rushed up, jumped up, and smashed the ball with one hand.
11 to 7, Guo Xu’s fifth assist.
The key to whether Stoudemire can be effective against Duncan is whether he rushes forward. If Duncan resists, Stoudemire will not be able to beat him. But when Stoudemire rushes, Duncan cannot defend well.
Without Guo Xu on the court, neither Roy nor Lowry can help Stoudemire fully utilize his mobility advantage. The time they work together is too short.
After the Spurs made several passes, there was no space. Granger changed direction with the ball and passed Thomas, and made a sudden stop and scored. 11 to 9.
When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu passed the ball to Marion, who missed a layup on an air cut and missed his team's first shot. The Spurs immediately counterattacked. Parker relied on his speed to make a fast break and forced a basketball to score against Guo Xu. 11 to 11.
It is impossible for Guo Xu to lead the team to easily defeat the Spurs. In the fourth time loop, he participated in the training of the Knicks and understood the characteristics of the opponent, so that he could score 101 points in one loop. He didn't have the opportunity to participate in the Spurs' training, but his cooperation with his teammates became more tacit.
It is theoretical that he can lead the team to defeat the Spurs. There are five people playing on the court. Guo Xu can ensure that he performs well on the offensive end, but on the defensive end he does not dare to defend Parker personally. His strength advantage is gone and he cannot jump. If he works too hard on the defensive end, he will be in trouble if he gets hit again, so he is worried.
The Suns attacked and Guo Xu played a pick-and-roll again. Parker came out faster this time and blocked him. Guo Xu dribbled the ball from his crotch to his left hand. With a slight sway of his shoulder, he stepped back and passed the ball to Thomas without a chance to take action.
Facing Granger, Thomas couldn't take a direct shot, so he took a dribble and lobbed the ball to Marion. The latter singled out Bowen, turned around in the low post and missed the throw, and Duncan won the rebound. The Spurs' defense is also targeted, allowing veteran Finley to deal with the most defensive Bell. The offensive task is to catch the ball and shoot three-pointers.
The score difference could not be widened. After 5 minutes, **Vicci made substitution adjustments first, sending Ginobili on and replacing Bowen.
At first glance, it seems that this is to attack Guo Xu. No matter who Guo Xu is defending, he will be facing two outside stars. If he were to guard Finlay, the height and weight gap would be too big.
D'Antoni quickly made a substitution, Marion came off, and Roy came on to increase the offensive points with the ball. Guo Xu continued to stay on the court to organize the offense, while Bowen, who Roy hated most, went to rest.
The division of labor among the Suns players is very clear. Stoudemire and Roy are the two offensive points with the ball. Guo Xu was responsible for the organization, and Bell and Thomas were pulled out to shoot three-pointers. The Spurs' GDP combination with Granger is also very powerful offensively, and the defense is slightly better than the Suns.
The Suns trailed by 4 points 27 to 31 in the first quarter.
Guo Xu didn't score a point and sent 8 assists. The Spurs had people constantly interfering in front of him, and he only took one three-pointer and missed the basket.
In the second quarter, the Suns sent Lowry, Roy, Anthony Parker, Ariza, and Haslem to play small-ball tactics and try their best to launch fast breaks. Varejao continued to sit on the bench.
D'Antoni always arranges offensive tactics to target the opponent's lineup, relying on the depth of the lineup to compete with the Spurs. The disastrous defeat on the field was due to a problem with the players' mentality. Guo Xu played with an injury today. Although his condition declined, the players also gained confidence and became bolder in their performances.
Duncan is the only one inside the Spurs who is good at attacking the penalty area. When Duncan takes a break, it doesn't matter if the Suns let Haslem serve as a center. He faces blue-collar Oberto.
**Vicci did not dare to arrange for two insiders to be on the court and continue to compete with the Suns in small-ball tactics. No matter Horry, Bonner or Elson, their movement speed cannot compare with Haslem. If there are two inside lines, it will be easier for the Suns to counterattack.
Ariza can still get a chance to play despite his inconsistent shooting. In the Suns, he is a versatile player who can play three positions. Playing as a power forward, he can make air cuts like Marion, and he can break through with the ball in misplaced positions when encountering big men. Playing at positions 2 and 3, his main task is to defend the opponent's scorer.
Spurs substitute Jacqui Vaughn, Ginobili, Barry, Finley, Oberto.
The Suns' rotation has changed, Vaughn has once again been given the opportunity to play, and it is easier for smaller guards to defend Lowry.
After playing for 6 minutes, Guo Xu, Stoudemire and other main players returned. The Suns sent Varejao for the first time, double-covering on the offensive end, and guarding Duncan alone on the defensive end. The Suns have two big men who can catch the ball and hit the basket. Vicky also adjusted the lineup and began to use twin towers.
Guo Xu scored in this quarter. He relied on double screens to receive Roy's pass and hit a three-pointer. He scored 3 points and 12 assists at halftime.
In the third quarter, the two sides still couldn't open up the point difference.
The Spurs performed better in positional battles. Parker's scoring ability was better than Guo Xu's today, and his breakthrough was very sharp. The Suns' counterattack was better than that of the Spurs. Guo Xu sent several wonderful long passes, including high balls and ground hits. He played 8 minutes in this quarter and scored 2 points and 6 assists. He scored 5 points and 18 assists in the third quarter.
The Suns are 3 points behind 85 to 88...
