The other extreme of Guo Xu's glory is the betrayal of Cameron Anthony.

Anthony always ranks among the top in the media's "overrated players" and "cancer players". This season, fans often boo him at home games in New York.

Anthony's time to join was too bad. Before he arrived, the Knicks reached the finals twice. After he joined, the team immediately began to weaken, and last season it fell to the bottom, only slightly stronger than the 76ers.

Gordon Hayward, who was traded to the Magic, averaged 20.6 points, 5 rebounds and 3.7 assists at the start of the season. His offensive efficiency is higher than Anthony and his contract is smaller than Anthony, so fans can't stand it.

There are many reasons for this result today, and Anthony's own responsibility cannot be escaped.

Xia Tianshi Hillalio Nene was interviewed in Brazil, and during the process he talked about his former teammate Anthony: "He could have become the best player in the league. He has accurate jump shots, excellent skills, and solid basic skills at low posts."

"But from the Nuggets to the Knicks, Anthony has always been a scorer, not a qualified leader." Nene said: "He is the best player at the low post, but he is too selfish to make his teammates better. If he does this, he can become the best player in the league. Of course, if he defends... because he knows how to defend, I know him."

Nene started his career with the Suns, and he knew very well what it was like to drive the stars of the team. His words implicitly said that Anthony was lazy on the defensive end, and he was almost said to be a cancer. His words were immediately regarded as the truth by many fans. If he dared to be such a black boss, Nene must be very unhappy when he partnered with him.

Nene did have a very unpleasant life when he entered the league, because he was used to winning under Guo Xu's leadership, but the Nuggets couldn't even pass the first round of the playoffs. After being traded, he also hacked Iverson and thought that he was a blacksmith.

Apart from the stadium performance, Anthony was not smart outside the court.

As soon as he entered the NBA, his relationship with the underworld was exposed. He was born in Baldymo and his gangster background was a solid evidence.

The most awesome thing is that when he was in Baltimore, he once promoted the local gangs' resistance to police rule. At the same time, he had repeatedly posted his gang tattoos and gangster gestures on social media, not ashamed, but proud.

In the summer of 2006, Anthony messed up everything. He signed the longest five-year contract extension with the Nuggets, and the stars of the same period only renewed the contract for three years. So in 2010, Anthony could not become a free agent like Wade, Bosh, and James, so he directly joined the Knicks.

He joined the Knicks in 2012 and signed and then exchanged. The years were long. After the end of this season, he could choose to break out of the contract, but it was difficult to get a high salary and a long appointment after leading the team.

After Guo Xu arrived in New York, Anthony called him to invite him to dinner, but Guo Xu refused on the grounds of participating in the crew interview.

He could roughly guess the reason why Anthony asked him. As long as Bosh retired due to illness after the end of this season, the Lakers have sufficient salary space. Anthony wants to join the Lakers to be his younger brother to Guo Xu.

This little brother, Guo Xu really can't afford it, and it's impossible for the two of them to form a team.

When he first entered the league, Anthony had great potential. If he had a good coach, he might become a superstar. Unfortunately, after forming the "Golden Double Black Hole", he had no idea what defense was. Now that he has entered the league, his skills and mentality have been set, he is a cancer.

Moreover, Anthony also wants a high salary. He is now a data brush. In addition to playing a team that can choose the top scorer to rebuild, giving him a high salary will definitely lead to a loss.

Guo Xu disagreed with having dinner together, which was equivalent to politely rejecting Anthony's joint proposal. Anthony could figure it out and would not mention this matter again in the future, so as not to be embarrassed by everyone.

On the evening of the 10th, the Lakers vs. Knicks.

Guo Xu exploded in the first quarter, his offense was unstoppable, scoring 27 points and 1 assist. In the second quarter, he scored 16 points in 7 minutes, with amazing efficiency and scored 43 points and 3 assists in the first half.

He played the third quarter again, and his shooting percentage finally dropped. He scored 19 points with the number of shots and 8 free throws he made, scoring a total of 62 points and 4 assists to get off work.

The Lakers led by 37 points, and Guo Xu could not continue to play in the final quarter. Last season, the two teams were still half a dozen, and they were both at the bottom of the league. This season, the Lakers beat the Knicks just to play.

The Knicks played so poorly, and the attendance rate is not low today. Many fans came to see Guo Xu. Many fans turned against each other in the third quarter and neatly shouted MVP when he was free throws.

The Knicks not only lose because of their star abilities, but also in the lineup. Their lineup has obvious flaws and their matching is unreasonable.

The starting point guard is Spanish veteran Jose Calderon, who can't keep up with Guo Xu's speed at all, and his opponent will be out of the way with just one change of direction.

Calderon is a heavy point guard with a height of 191cm and a weight of 95 kilograms. He is good at shooting and organization. At his peak, he is a well-defended defense, but now he is a black hole. He can't defend when he encounters a speed guard.

The Knicks' substitute is a double-energy guard, 193cm tall and weighs 90kg Jerian Grant, who is the No. 19 rookie in the first round this year. The Knicks traded him to the team and lost money. He has average experience and average speed. He is played by Guo Xu and he likes to reach out and is even fouled.

The Knicks' ability to defend the pick-and-roll in the interior is also poor. Jokin Noah, who has been selected for the best defensive lineup many times, was injured and unable to play. The starting center is the blue-collar shield Robin Lopez, and his mobility is much poorer. Their starting power forward is tall rookie Porzingis.

Porzingis grew to 221cm tall. His speed was not slow, but his center of gravity was too high. He could not bend when he encountered a pick-and-roll defense defender.

His advantages are his offense, his tall arms, his athletic ability is the same as his height, his shooting ability is excellent, his shooting speed is extremely fast, his feel at the basket, and he can be as good as a fish in the fast-paced basketball system.

Guo Xu broke through time and time, and the Knicks no longer tied him up regardless of the game's winning or losing in the third quarter. No matter where he went, the players would attack nearby and emptied others to take action casually. There were several times when Guo Xu got the ball and doubled him up on the position. Even so, he still had a way to score when counterattacking.

Guo Xu scored 101 points against the Knicks. They didn't want Guo Xu to perform again. In the end, the Knicks lost neatly and successfully defended Guo Xu with garbage time.

On the offensive end, Anthony no longer has any star appearance. He played too simply. Many of his moves were lucky to stop and jump shots, and he threw them towards Carter. His back shot was gone without the aura of the past, and he slowly rushed out and could not get rid of Carter's defense.

In order to let Guo Xu play for a while, Tyron Lu did not arrange double teams. Anthony still was inefficient in one-on-one match. He made 8 of 20 shots in 35 minutes, made 2 of 6 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 24 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists.

Porzingis made 3 of 10 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and scored 12 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks.

The Lakers' second-in-command Horford performed well in both offense and defense, making 6 of 9 shots, 1 of 3 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored a triple-double with 15 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.

He only scored 3 more points than the rookie, but his effect was much greater. Porzingis could not be a fulcrum for the time being, and was taller and not good at playing pick-and-roll and supporting the pass.

At the post-match press conference, Guo Xu and Tyrone Lu both praised Horford, and the media also began to say that he was underestimated.
