Chapter 173 [virtuous circle, super efficient]

Guo Xu finalized the endorsement of the Loss potato chips advertisement, and O'Neal was very happy.

During training yesterday, O'Pang and Kobe had a conflict and mocked each other, which was caused by Guo Xu.

Kobe and Guo Xu had more chats than before. They fought on the court for a while, discussed breakthroughs and shooting skills. In the locker room, Kobe also whispered to him and asked him how to deal with family relationships.

Then, Aopang said he was a little jealous.

Fuck, a 300-pound fat man licked his big round face and told you how an awkward experience he was jealous.

O'Neal is such a weird joke. In Guo Xu's previous life, at the age of 46, he was able to play a junior high school student in an advertisement. He was rejected for snacks from the little girl classmate. In the rehearsal of the drama "Romeo and Juliet", he also got a role, playing the tree...

After seeing Guo Xu's advertising ideas, O'Neal became even happier, and he was 10% happy. Although the "miss" Kobe pestered Guo Xu, it was obvious that the two of them could not play together in life. This is the relationship between colleagues.

Once O'Neal was happy, his opponent was in trouble.

On January 12, the Lakers played against the Cavaliers at home. O'Neal scored 34 points, 23 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks, leading the Lakers to easily win, and the five players in the team scored in double digits.

Because the inside advantage is too obvious, Guo Xu's opponent is Andre Miller, so he transported it to the frontcourt according to the coach's arrangement and passed it, waiting for opportunities on the periphery, not a good opportunity to not take action. This style of play is easy to ensure efficiency. He made 5 of 8 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 14 points and 3 assists.

The Cavaliers' lineup is not complete, and the core center in the inside is absent. Ilgoskas, who is 221cm tall, was nicknamed "Big Z". He was drafted in the first round in 1996. He spent the entire season on the injury list as soon as he entered the league.

In the 1997-98 season, Daz began to play for the Cavaliers, both offense and defense, and had a soft touch. In the rookie season, he averaged 29 minutes per game, scored 13.9 points, 8.8 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 1.6 blocks, and was selected into the All-Rookie Team.

Judging from his performance in the rookie season, both Daz and Yao Ming in the future are not inferior. The Cavaliers are anxious to sign a contract extension of $70.9 million for six years, but in the next season, he only played five games and was reimbursed. This season, he played 24 games and was reimbursed.

When Big Z came on the court, the Cavaliers had a record of 15 wins and 8 losses. After he was reimbursed, the Cavaliers had 2 wins and 9 losses, and were about to fall out of the top eight in the Eastern Conference.

The Lakers flew to Salt Lake City, defeating the Jazz back-to-back 111 to 101 away, achieving five consecutive victories.

O'Neal continued to show off his power, making 9 of 15 shots, 12 of 20 free throws, scoring 30 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists. When O'Neal's free throw shooting percentage reached 60%, the opponent could not defend this fat man, and his efficiency was too terrible.

Guo Xu played against Stockton again, playing for 36 minutes, made 8 of 13 shots, 2 of 5 three-pointers, 3 of 3 free throws, and scored 21 points and 5 assists.

Stockton played for 32 minutes, scoring 10 points and 11 assists.

Once, two losses can be said to be accidental, and every time they face off the table, Stockton fans can only use the word "veteran's old age" to describe him.

Kobe's touch was not good in this game. He made 6 of 17 shots and 0 of 4 of three-pointers, but 8 of 8 free throws, scoring 20 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals. He performed outstandingly on the defensive end, scoring 20 points is enough to help the team win.

After a day off, the Lakers returned to home court and defeated the weak Grizzlies 110-99, winning six consecutive victories.

O'Neal scored 31 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks, Kobe scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists, and Guo Xu scored 22 points and 3 assists.

The Lakers' tactics are very alternative. Kobe usually starts to pass the ball with the ball, looking more like a point guard. Guo Xu played without the ball, running on the side with a cover, receiving the ball and shooting, and hitting 4 three-pointers.

The Lakers Trident can score more than 70 points in each game. The substitute can score more than 100 points with just one substitute. The opponents feel a little desperate. The Lakers' defense is not bad. They originally had offensive killers in the interior, and there is an extra strong scoring point on the outside to be invincible.

Espn expert Nicholas analyzed: "O'Neal, Kobe, and Jason Guo had an excellent chemical reaction. The three of them combined are greater than three. When they form a triangle on the strong side, the opponent cannot double-team any one, otherwise there will be obvious gaps. This Lakers are undoubtedly stronger than last season."

Even if a team does not play in a triangle offense, it will be very difficult for a team to have three strong scoring points, and the opponent will be very difficult to defend. In Guo Xu's previous life, except for the Lakers who won the championship by relying on dual-core offense in 2002 and 2003, all other champion teams have multiple stable scorers. After 2012, it will be difficult for the team to win the championship without forming a giant three.

"Sports Online" famous columnist Mike Kahn praised Guo Xu. "Jason Guo is the most important championship puzzle for the Lakers. Without his three-pointer, the Lakers would not have achieved such a good record now. Ironically, the Lakers completed the most important reinforcement for establishing a dynasty with just one Tyrone Lu."

Kahn analyzed that Guo Xu's biggest impact on the Lakers is not the data he contributes, but allows the coaching staff to rotate players more boldly, reducing the playing time and improving efficiency of the core players, forming a virtuous cycle.

In Guo Xu's previous life, the Lakers combined two powerful offensive points, and the third scoring point was Fisher. He played 20 games in the second half of this season, averaging 11.5 points per game.

In order to win, "Zen Master" Jackson let O'Neal and Kobe play for more than 40 minutes in every game, and he doesn't rest in the second quarter unless the team leads a lot, and they take turns to rest. If they don't lead much, they have to wait for garbage time before resting. This way of playing can easily cause fatigue and injury to the stars.

After Guo Xu shared the offensive tasks, the ok combination's playing time decreased. Although the data decreased, they were more efficient when they were physically energetic and reduced the possibility of injury.

Keeping this trend, Kobe is likely to play all this season. When O'Neal is in a dense back-to-back schedule, he will have a one-round break and there will be no problem with two games.

On the 19th, the Lakers played against the Rockets at home. O'Neal, who was full of energy, once again allowed people to see what "super efficient" means. He only played 31 minutes, made 17 of 23 shots, made 7 of 18 free throws, scored 41 points, 11 rebounds and 2 assists.

With such a monster, the rest of the Lakers will be able to enter garbage time if they fight casually.

Guo Xu played for 30 minutes, made 5 of 8 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 13 points and 4 assists. It is easy to win with star teammates as partners. The disadvantage is that his ball rights are limited, and even if his personal abilities are improved, the data will not be too exaggerated.

On January 21, the Lakers beat the Heat again at home, Kobe and O'Neal two of them 30, Guo Xu scored 16 points, and entered garbage time 5 minutes ahead of schedule in the final quarter.

It is easy for Guo Xu to fight Hardaway alone, but he cannot make a random shot because Kobe was also in a draw in this game. He scored consecutive goals in singles Jones, and Jackson arranged for Guo Xu to play as a supporter. After all, he is still inexperienced.

In order to attack the Ok combination, the Heat players made many open spaces on the outside. Five of the Lakers team scored in double digits. Pan Pessi, who was a substitute, made three three-pointers with his specialty, scored 11 points in just 13 minutes.

Next, the Supersonics, Nets, Knicks, Timberwolves and other teams fell at the Lakers one after another. At the end of the month, the Lakers achieved the longest 12-game winning streak of the season.
