The Hawks' current internal and external core are Zach Randolph and Jeff Teague.

"Black Bears" Randolph has already passed his peak period and is recognized as a black hole in the interior defensive. His average of 15.4 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game this season is pretty good.

Teague is nicknamed "Mamba" by Chinese fans. This is a person with a story. Fans say that he dribbles like Mamba, but he is perfectly invisible at critical moments. In the past two seasons, he only sees Randolph and himself, killing the Hawks and Buddhas. He is particularly bad when playing against the wind ball, and he makes a crazy blacksmith and often throws three-no-touch shots.

In parallel world, Teague has achieved excellent results because of Millsap and Horford on the team. Now the two have no relationship with the Hawks.

The worst thing is that Teague is also a big loophole on the defensive end. Data shows that Teague's defensive efficiency this season is 112.6, ranking 296th in the entire league.

The young players the Hawks focus on training are Aaron Gordon, who is not strong enough to play power forwards and is average in skills as small forwards. If Gordon plays as small forwards, it will overlap with the second-place Otto Porter in 2013.

The 2013 rookie is recognized as bad. Even if Porter has developed well, he has become the starting small forward of the Hawks this season. He averaged 30.4 minutes per game, scored 11.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.4 steals, with a shooting percentage of 47.6%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 36.8%.

Generally, the Hawks play the starting shooting guard Kyle Korver, and the defensive end speed is not fast enough, which is about the black hole.

In short, the Hawks' defense is the top three in the league. The head coach is not Mike Budenhozer of the Spurs, but Lionel Hollins. They can't even see the defensive system, they just focus on people.

Guo Xu wants to get high scores, and this is really a perfect opponent, so he doesn't have to save face for them at all.

Because the strength of the two sides is very different, the only game is broadcast live on local stations. China's CCTV5 and Tencent both broadcast the Lakers' game live, and almost no game this season has fallen. Chinese fans advocate personal heroism, and their favorite thing to watch is the star score. If the Lakers are not broadcast one day and choose other games, many people will be dissatisfied.

After the warm-up, both sides started. The Suns five players: Guo Xu, Seth Curry, Vince Carter, Al Horford, and Nurkic.

The reason for Curry to start was to be worse for the defense, and he was afraid that the Hawks would lose too quickly. Tyrone Lu was a great puppet coach. He knew what Guo Xu wanted, so he tried to arrange the troops and formation to his heart.

Guo Xu will not snatch the coach's tactical board because Tyrone Lu himself doesn't need the tactical board. His tactics are generally written directly, just trying to hand over the ball to the boss and create a mobile phone opportunity for the boss to cover it!

Hawks starters: Teague, Korver, Porter, Randolph, Spencer Hawys.

The Hawks did not allow Chris Humphries, who came from the mid-term trade, to start again, which was a mistake. Because Hawys moved too slowly, he was cleaned out of the team after only one season after joining the Clippers. His pick-and-roll defense ability was very poor.

Occasionally, coach Hollins would let Randolph play a guest center to play small ball tactics, so that the overall defense would be extremely poor. The opponent passes to the inside singles, and Randolph can only use his strength to resist, and the bounce and height are difficult to interfere with the shooting.

Guo Xu saw the Hawks' lineup and knew that the additional shooting today would not be in vain, which was exactly what he wanted. If the Hawks let Gordon and Randolph partnered with the inside, the speed of switching defense would be faster, and it would not be so good to score.

Nurkic won the jump ball, and the Lakers attacked first.

Horfordra went to the center of the perimeter to receive the ball and retreated Randolph. Guo Xu ran from the left to the right, and ran out of the opportunity under Nurkic's unball cover.

Teague's pursuit of defense slowed down, and Hawys' replacement was slower. Guo Xu easily took the ball from the bottom corner on the right, and entered the net hollow, 3-0.

Zhang Heli said: "Guo Xu made a three-pointer at the beginning. He felt good today and hoped to keep it."

Yu Jia said: "He averaged 47.2 points per game now and performed very terrifyingly. He scored 30+ in all games so far. If he ended up with 30+ in 82 games, it would definitely be a super historical record that no one can break in the future."

The Eagles attacked, and Guo Xu began to let go of water in the first round, and Tiger was two meters away. No one was so defending except for free kicks in the football game.

Teague's three-point shooting percentage this season hit a career high, 40.1%, and averaged 1.4 shots per game. He aimed and made a three-pointer. 3-3.

The Lakers attacked, and as soon as the halfway point Nurkic provided a cover for Guo Xu, he moved horizontally and avoided Teague, and went to the right to stop and jumped into a three-pointer with a meter outside the three-point line.

Teague's speed is very fast, and it is still slightly inferior to Guo Xu. He couldn't block the chasing defense. Hawys was far away from Guo Xu and did not change to prevent interference. This was an easy shot and scored. 6 to 3.

The atmosphere in Staples Center was motivated, and all the fans were applauding. The movie star Jack Nicholson, who was sitting in the front row, gave Guo Xu a thumbs up, and the cameraman gave him a close-up shot.

After 2010, Nicholson rarely went to the Lakers to watch the game at home. Before that, he had two special seats with a bench that were hard to buy, and was called the Lakers' mascot. In 2013, Nicholson was extremely disappointed with his favorite Lakers, so he wanted to buy the Lakers and wanted to be a coach himself, claiming to be the second in the league in coaching ability.

Now that Guo Xu comes back, the old man is back to support him.

The Eagles attacked, Guo Xu continued to let Teague two meters away, and used his skill "not to guard against" at the beginning.

This is not the first time that Teague has been treated like this by Guo Xu. Except for Guo Xu’s retirement in the first two seasons, there are two times each season. When he first entered the league, Teague felt humiliated and is used to it now. He used to it before, thinking that Guo Xu looked down on him, but now he knows that Guo Xu just wants to play for a while longer.

As long as he has the confidence to defeat his opponent, Guo Xu dares to let out stars like Paul to take action at a distance. What really tests their point guards is not the offense, but the defense against Guo Xu. For the sake of face, they have to find ways not to let Guo Xu get super high scores.

Teague aimed for a moment, jumped another three-pointer in the middle, Guo Xu didn't even stretch out his hand, and the ball went 6 to 6.

Teague was happy. His highest record in a single game of three-pointers was hitting four goals. Today he felt good, and he seemed to have hope of breaking his personal record and could break more than one goal.

When he thought so, the offensive rhythm was actually disrupted by Guo Xu. He is a defender who mainly focuses on breakthroughs. He is not a strong point in mid- and long-distance shooting, and he doesn't make many moves.

The Lakers attacked, and Nurkic came up to pick-and-roll in the first half. Guo Xu moved the ball horizontally and Randolph and Teague double-teamed. Guo Xu immediately passed the ball to Horford and ran to the bottom corner on the left.

Horford brought a high position to support him, and Guo Xu slipped into the baseline to run. It was difficult to deal with such a ball opponent, so the defender could only follow him. After no ball cover, Guo Xu received the ball at the bottom corner, and Teague chased and defended it in place.

Guo Xu first drove the ball to the left, dribbled the ball behind his left hand and changed direction to the bottom line, quickly started and passed Teague, and drew the ball with one throw to avoid Hawys' block.

He was not sure about the strength of this goal, but Nurkic was empty at the basket and easily grabbed the frontcourt rebound and scored a tip-in. 8 to 6.

The Lakers are so strong now. As long as they form a triangular offensive position, Nurkic and Curry can perform efficiently. After Guo Xu attracts the focus of the defense, they can get a simple opportunity to make a mobile phone.
