In order to limit the Lakers' multi-point bloom, the Suns coaching team adopted a joint defense strategy in the second game between the two sides.

As a result, Guo Xu showed his strength in the first quarter, scoring 26 points and 3 assists to lead the Lakers by 15 points.

He doesn't have to look for cover, and he will defend against the Suns. All singles are opportunities. He will make fake moves on the outside and make a quick stop to make up for defense. He will make a quick stop or a throw-in without waiting for the inside to make up for defense.

Now, whenever people talk about throwing, the first thing they think of is Guo Xu, which has become a symbol of him.

Whether it was throwing or high-shot shooting, he made the inside players feel angry. He couldn't cover the ball if he jumped a little slower, and watched the ball fly over his head. He obviously looked like he was throwing it, but his shooting percentage was over 50%, which was ridiculously accurate.

Thompson is the only outside player who can compete with Guo Xu. Guo Xu has no choice but to catch the ball when running and receiving the ball. He is not fast enough to catch up after encountering screens.

If Guo Xu can't help this game, he can't play. Once the Lakers' role players started, they got off work in three quarters. The Lakers won 125-92 and led 2-0 in the total score.

After the game, reporters all wanted to make a fuss about "leading the team with single cores", while Guo Xu modestly praised Al Horford, believing that the Lakers are a team with both internal and external cores.

Both played for 31 minutes, Guo Xu scored 45 points and 8 assists; Horford scored 15 points, 11 rebounds and 7 assists, and his performance was not bad.

The last two games were played at the Suns at home, which made the Suns players even more collapsed. As soon as Guo Xu appeared, the whole audience cheered and cheered, and his popularity was much higher than theirs.

No one booed Guo Xu, just like Bulls fans can't boo Jordan. If anyone does this, they may be beaten by the fans around them. Guo Xu brought 9 championships to this team and is the best player in the history of the Suns.

Even if Guo Xu led the Lakers to sweep the Suns, the fans of Phoenix City would not be angry. The tickets were sold out long ago, and they all came to see Guo Xu score. The Suns were eliminated. It was really not a problem. They still had a hard time playing against other teams in the first round. They were eliminated by the Lakers and could at least play more excitingly.

The Lakers won two more sweeps and advanced. Guo Xu scored a double-double with 31.5 points, 2 rebounds, 13 assists and 2 steals in the series. This is the familiar way of Guo Xu before retirement. He easily scored 30+10 and continued his first round sweep record.

The Spurs swept the Pelicans 4-0 in other series, and this series fully proves what ginger is or how spicy it is.

Although cousin Cousin and Davis, Davis, both have beautiful numbers, their shooting percentage has decreased compared to the regular season. In particular, Cousins' shooting percentage is only 41.3%. Facing Duncan, Gasol has suffered every game.

In the fourth game, when Cousins ​​got the ball from the high and outside the three-point line, and made two mistakes in the dribble under his crotch, Aldridge laughed very happily. With the same crazy style of playing, Cousins ​​looked much cute as an opponent. If this person was a teammate, you probably wanted to hit him.

The Pelicans performed best was point guard Kyrie Irving, who averaged 25+5 per game, shot 47.5% from the field and 44% from three-point shooting, beat veteran Tony Parker.

Irving performed well but could not lead the team to win. The Pelicans' overall defense is incomparable to the Spurs, and the wing defense is much worse.

In the same day as the Lakers, the Warriors led the Grizzlies 3-1. They got the match point, but Stephen Curry only played halftime and was injured. He accidentally slipped and injured shortly after he played in the second quarter. He hit the floor with his right knee, and then limped out of the field and never came back.

According to teammate Draymond Green, Curry learned that he could not play in the second half after being injured, so he covered his face and cried. The Warriors' absolute core must first fight against his injuries, and then lead the team to continue to attack the championship.

Some people say that Curry is the most unlucky person. This year he scored a peak career data of 30+5.4+6.7, with an efficiency value of 31.5, and there was no award in the regular season. Compared with Guo Xu, he failed to cause a sensation. Now he was injured just entering the playoffs, which does not seem to be a good sign.

The Thunder and the Clippers tied 2-2, which was the most dramatic series.

The Clippers first won two games in a row, leading 2-0, and the performance of the outside core Chris Paul was completely overwhelming in the blacksmith Westbrook. Many people think that the Clippers have made steady progress, they will sweep the Thunder, and believe that they have the ability to threaten the Warriors in the second round.

As a result, the Clippers lost 11 points at home in the third game, and Durant scored 45 points.

In the third quarter of the fourth game, Paul left the court with an injury while defending, and was diagnosed with a fracture of the third metacarpal bone of his right hand after the game and was reimbursed.

A few days later, the Warriors eliminated the Grizzlies 4-1 with Curry absent, and other players were not vegetarians.

The Thunder reversed 4-2 and eliminated the Clippers. Griffin, Jamal Crawford and others could not beat the Thunder.

The Nets swept the Pistons 4-0 and was the only Eastern team to advance. The other three series played tiebreak games, which was much more fierce than the Western Conference, but fans commented online that they were more like rookies pecking each other.

The Raptors defeated the Pacers 4-3 hard, Jimmy Butler beat Rudy Guy every game, stabilizing his Pacers boss's position, and his playing style looks like a weakened version of James.

Lillard was disappointing, against Monta Ellis and George Hill performed very well in every game. He averaged 26.5 points and 6.3 assists in the series, with a shooting percentage of only 36.8%. The only highlight was his three-point shooting percentage was 37.2%.

Lillard's strength has been questioned. As soon as he enters the playoffs, he becomes a blacksmith. He is simply the league's best-selling king. He often gets hit by layups when he breaks in, and he is not accurate in shooting from mid to long distance.

The Raptors' promotion depends on the overall level, with a lineup that is better than the Trail Blazers, with more scoring points, and the role players are more efficient.

The Magic eliminated the Hornets 4-3. Since its establishment, the Hornets have not yet been able to break through the first round.

Al Jefferson began to decline. He was good at using his strong body to play singles. He suffered a loss against Magic center Vucevic, who was one number bigger than him.

DeRo agreed with the Blacksmith. His shooting percentage was 40% in the series, and his main offensive method was still mid-range shots. His mentality was problematic and he could not fight tough battles. Batum, who came from the Hornets' new deal, did everything and was not good at anything. He averaged only 12 points and 4 assists per game.

Magic Gordon Hayward and Tobias Harris performed more stably, and both performed well in the tiebreak. Substitute swingman Evan Fournier also performed very well, and the Magic mainly relies on swingman to win.

The Bucks eliminated the Wizards 4-3.

The Wizards' weakest wing faced Paul George, and Wall suffered a serious loss against the second leader of the Bucks, Bradsor, but did not show any advantage.

Kevin Love, who is the most important tactical role of the Wizards, once again took the blame for the loss, because his shooting percentage in the series was only 38.5%, and Wizards fans said he was a softie and did not dare to enter the penalty area.

In fact, Love cannot enter the penalty area and play for a force, so the coach arranged for him to open up the space to catch the ball and shoot. Center Steven Adams has no range, so he only has to play the move of screening and cutting behind the blank, or catch the ball at a low post to attack. If Love goes to the low post, the position will overlap.

Moreover, the favorite superstar of Wizards fans is Wall, who likes to break in and make high-difficulty layups and dunks, is a waste with no shooting range, mainly breaking through, hitting a shooting percentage of only 39.3%, and his real hit rate is 48.4%.

Love seems to have a lower shooting percentage, but in fact he averages 41.4% of three-point shooting percentage, and makes 3 goals, and his real shooting percentage reaches 55%. On the defensive end, Love also has to take the blame. The team let him defend the pick-and-roll, but he is slow and unable to do well.
