Chapter 1094 [Guo Xu's two ways to win]
When the Kings attacked, Rondo and Hibert played a pick-and-roll cooperation, broke through with the ball, and passed around and then passed again.
Harden can't make a shot, and if he takes a shot against Carter, he will be seriously disturbed and his shooting percentage will not be very high.
But the Kings' pick-and-roll offense is not threatened. The Lakers just need to shrink the formation and block the penalty area. They empty the inside players and double-team the two defenders to defend the breakthrough. Even if they don't shrink, Hibert has no threat because his empty cut speed is too slow. When he reaches the inside of the opponent's opponent at the basket, he has been waiting there long ago.
Hibert lacks explosive power and can only rely on his height to play singles with the ball. He bullies Bosh's inside player, and the strong man can withstand him last time. Except for shooting in the basket, Hibert is not sure in other positions. As an inside player, he has three seasons of real shooting percentage, which is less than 50%, which is so fresh and refined.
Such a soft boy is praised by many people in the parallel world because of his good record in Pacers. The media said that he is "Black Yao Ming", which is definitely the worst time for Yao Ming to be hacked.
The Kings player passed back and forth several times, and was finally released from Solomon, who was emptied from the outside, missed the three-point jump shot in the bottom corner.
This year, the Kings' lineup configuration is definitely for the No. 1 pick. Guo Xu has a headache about how to let go. If it really doesn't work, he can only take the initiative to ask to defend Harden and ask Carter to guard against others.
Only the Sharingan can fight against the Sharingan. Guo Xu has a higher level on the defensive end than Harden, so he has already opened a marleidoscope.
When the Lakers attacked, Guo Xu still played without the ball. After receiving the ball on the weak side, he flew and made a strong breakthrough. He hit Rondo's hand and threw the ball. The referee called the foul of the foul.
Guo Xu also made a foul on "hit the car" and he also had few free throws because he was too accurate to shoot, disdain to strive for 10 free throws per game like Harden. That would make the game intermittent. If the game was coherent, Guo Xu, who found the rhythm, scored more efficiently.
Guo Xu made both free throws, 23 to 16.
In the next three rounds, Kings players' double-teams finally worked because Coach Carl finally replaced Hibert.
He realized that Hibert was a scumbag in defense of pick-and-roll and could not pull the offensive end. He sent Omi Casby, who was good at shooting three-pointers, to play a cameo as a power forward, and rookie Stein took the center position.
Guo Xu made two shots and assisted Nurkic to score a dunk. He was not easy to take action, and his teammates had a chance.
Stein is a high-ranking rookie who was exchanged for Landry, Kufus and others from the Hawks. His preseason performance was disappointing. This rookie is indeed very athletic, but he suffered a loss when playing at a center weighing 109 kg, and he had no range when playing as a power forward.
After strengthening the mobility of the inside, the Kings can better defend Guo Xu's shooting, but they can't do anything about the 127-kilogram strong man like Nurkic. Not to mention the big man being induced to be taken away, even if Nurkic plays singles directly, it will be difficult for the Kings to defend in the inside.
In the next round, Stein's empty cut was interfered with and missed. Guo Xu received the ball and advanced quickly. He strongly created a foul by Rondo, who made both free throws. 27 to 16.
In this wave of Kings could not get into the basket, Harden missed two shots, and the gap widened.
Carl replaced Rondo, who was two fouls, and replaced the point guard Darren Collison, who was also very fast, with strong offense and weak defense.
When Collison saw Guo Xu, he would bring back bad memories. When he was playing for the Knicks, he met Guo Xu in the finals and was beaten to no avail.
What to do? Rondo can’t help but I can’t help it.
Guo Xu had no defensive concerns. He was not careful about Collison, and he retreated very far back, looking like "I want to brush rebounds and let my teammates get stuck." Collison got a chance to make a phone call and scored 7 points in a row. Conversely, the Lakers' offense was also very easy.
Zhang Heli commented: "Guo Xu must be thinking thank God, Rondo finally went down and someone dared to shoot at an open position, otherwise the score just now would be widened."
Yu Jia said: "Guo Xu's two ways to win are: one is to lead the team to blossom more and lock in the victory early. The other is to deal with the King. If he wants to stay on the court to experience the fun of playing, he has to not defend in order not to enter garbage time soon."
Zhang Heli said: "No matter which point guard is single, Guo Xu must be mentally prepared to be abused. I think Rondo is overrated."
Rondo, known as the "Kings Second Head", made 1 of 2 shots and scored 3 points and 2 assists, and the data was exposed and it was impossible to see.
Does Rondo have any effect that cannot be reflected in data? It is impossible to see this game at all. Only the strange Rondomi can see his role last season.
Rubio ranked first in the point guard's real defense, while Rondo ranked seventeenth, but Rubio has never been selected into the best defensive team. After Rondo was no one behind him, the scorer was not handed over to Tony Allen to deal with, and his defense was just average.
On the offensive side, neither of them has any range and will be released by the opponent. Rondo is also completely defeated by Rubio.
As long as Rondo is compared, Rubio may be whitewashed in the Trail Blazers. After leaving the Celtics, Rondo broke through and shot in a small shot, and the attack was completely like constipation. In this way, there are always people on the Internet saying that Rondo is much stronger than Rubio and he disdains to compare with the opponent.
In fact, Rubio is ten percentage points higher than Ron. Last season, Rondo was a slag with a real hit rate of 44.8%, and it was completely helpless!
The Kings are trying hard to defend Guo Xu's shooting, but it's hard to play in positional battles. As soon as they catch the ball, they are two people in front of them, one big and one small, and they can prevent breakthroughs and interfere with shooting.
However, it is trouble for the Lakers to fight back against the Kings. Guo Xu rushed to the front and directly played singles. Tyrone Lu didn't care whether the pass would make a mistake or not, so he asked the players to pass the ball quickly to find him.
Guo Xu made a three-pointer against Collison's defense. During the counterattack, he forced a breakthrough and caused Collison to foul, making both free throws. He scored a full quarter, scored 30 points and 1 assist, leading the Lakers to lead 37-28.
The coach asked the role players not to take action unless they got an open position. The two inside players scored two points, and Seth, who was released, made a three-pointer.
If it weren't for the three-pointer, Seth would give people the feeling of being a defensive black hole sent by Tyrone Lu on purpose.
In the second quarter, the two sides competed for substitutes, and the King quickly caught up with a 12-4 attack wave to only 1 point.
The Lakers asked Clarkson to play as a point guard, and Josh Richardson to play as a shooting guard. The scene was messy, and Clarkson got 4 points in a single shot, and the team did not cooperate at all.
The Kings were led by Rondo and Collison, who was in their peak period, and the breakthrough was sharp when counterattacking. Casby and Belinelli also made three-pointers, Hibert was the center, with one big leading four smalls.
Four minutes later, Tyronlu replaced Clarkson and Guo Xu.
Guo Xu immediately counterattacked and scored 4 points and sent two assists to stabilize the situation. Josh made a three-pointer and Thackeray cut easily.
Even if Clarkson didn't mention leaving the Lakers, the team's management began to consider trading him, and his organizational ability was indeed not good. When Josh 198cm had an absolute physical advantage in Rondo, he didn't pass the ball at once.
After Collison came off the field in the second half, the Kings attacked again, but Rondo could also make Guo Xu uncomfortable. After being released, he just didn't shoot, dribbled the ball across the air, and looked for teammates who were running in a hurry and tried to use up 24 seconds.
Under Rondo's delaying tactic, Guo Xu only scored 9 points in a single quarter and made 1 three-pointer, but he also sent 3 assists, 41 points, 4 assists and 2 steals in the first half.
Rondo faced the situation with 7 points, 6 assists and 1 steal, and also had three fouls on his back.
