In the NBA, each team has at least three excellent players taking core makeup photos together, which is a tradition. But the Suns' Gugliotta is obviously a big deal. He only played 44 games last season, scoring 6.5 points, 5 rebounds and 1.8 assists.

Around this, a reporter interviewed coach Frank Johnson and asked him what he thought about the depth of the Suns' lineup.

Frank replied: "Tom's injury has healed. He is in good condition in the summer. I believe he will perform well in the new season and become a qualified inside core."

It would be fine if Frank just said that, in order to prove that he was not a nonsense, he really let Gugliota play in the regular season, which would be troublesome. Tom was quite qualified in mid-range shots last season, and he was slow motion all the time, and his mobility could only play centers.

The reporter asked Guo Xu to comment on the summer recruitment. He thought he would complain, but he did not expect Guo Xu to give a satisfactory reply.

"I am very satisfied with the team lineup, young players are motivated, veterans are experienced, we can complement each other. After the trade, I am more sure that the Suns can enter the playoffs."

The reporter said: "But the outside world commented that the Suns lineup is very poor. Aren't you afraid that your teammates' performance will not meet expectations?"

Guo Xu smiled and said, "Then I have to take on more responsibilities and help them perform at the expected level. I have confidence in them and myself. I believe that I am the best point guard in the league, no doubt about it."

Journalists like to listen to such words, which can easily cause heated discussion and create big news.

Someone immediately asked: "Net Kidd led the team into the finals last year and is ready to compete for the championship this year. Do you think you are better than him?"

"Yes, that's what I think, it's okay for others not to admit it."

The reporter asked: "What teams do you think are the main competitors in the West?"

"The Lakers, Kings, Spurs, and Mavericks, these four teams are very strong. We need to use our talents to make up for the lack of experience and strive to defeat them with our physical fitness."

The reporter asked: "Where is the East?"

"I am optimistic about the Nets in the East, the Pistons. Kidd has strong organizational capabilities, the Pistons have outstanding lineup depth, and the strength of these two teams is outstanding in the East."

The reporter asked: "Aren't you optimistic about the 76ers? In the summer, they introduced Van Horn, added outstanding offensive players, and many experienced players who have participated in the finals."

Guo Xu replied: "I don't think it's better, I think the Nets are much better than the 76ers, but the reason is that the Nets have Kidd."

Guo Xu's words are easy to offend people, but he needs some topics to attract attention when he comes to the reconstruction of the Suns. What he said is also true. Although Kidd is a little poor in his personal scoring ability, he has top-notch offensive skills and is good at controlling the rhythm. He will also lead the team to the finals.

In the 2003-04 season in his previous life, the Pistons were able to defeat the Nets to advance to the finals, because the deal came with Rashid Wallace, with an amazing lineup depth, and Kidd was affected by a knee injury and performed poorly.

After 2004, Kidd had minimally invasive surgery on his knees, and his speed has become slower and slower since then. He has been fighting for many seasons with his ball merchandising and experience, and helped the Mavericks win the championship in 2011. Kidd is still in his peak period.

Martin and Jefferson's body is also at its peak. Martin became an ordinary blue-collar worker after going to the Nuggets after undergoing minimally invasive knee surgery. The current Nets have both core and terrifying talents.

Guo Xu has confidence in the Suns because the Suns lineup configuration is very similar to that of the Nets. Although the players are young, their bodies are at the superman level. As long as he connects in a good attack, the team will burst out with amazing energy.

He boldly said these ideas, and the Sun will gain more attention. No matter whether it can be played well or not, it will be hyped up first.

The reporter asked: "If you meet the Lakers in the playoffs this year, do you think you can win?"

Guo Xu smiled and said, "I don't know, but I hope I can win. I can't deliberately lose in order not to be an opponent with the Lakers, right? If we meet in the Western Conference Finals, it proves that we are the strongest three giants in history!"

The reporters at the venue applauded together. Being the team leader should have such courage, even if he is only 21 years old.

The reporter asked: "Many people think that the Suns' defense is not good enough and it is difficult to win the new season. What do you think?"

"I have said that offense is the best defense. If we can defeat our opponents by attacking, it doesn't matter if we almost defeat our defense. I always think that winning the offense is the best way to win. We have proved this when we were in the Lakers."

The flash flashed, and the reporters applauded again. They all knew how much President David Stern hated the argument that defended and won the championship. Such a game had no ratings at all.

Head coach Frank Johnson was a little embarrassed. Last season, he repeatedly emphasized that the Suns should focus on defense and win the game. He thought Marbury and Marion were too fast to advance and asked them to land in the halftime position. As a result, the two Ma families did not listen to his tricks and took a fast break when they had the chance. He always felt that that was the reason for the loss.

Manager Brian asked his father Jerry: "Do you think he can really lead the Suns to win the championship? That's something Westfar and Barkley didn't do."

Jerry shook his head and smiled: "I admit that he is very attractive, but he still has to speak on the court by strength. He used to be too smooth in the Lakers and thought of winning too easily. After all, he is a young man."

As the implication is that Jerry is not optimistic about the Suns' championship. Every year after the team signs a contract to strengthen or selects a rookie, he fantasizes that the team will play well next season, but every time it ends in disappointment.

Kidd only let the Suns enter the second round, and Guo Xu was satisfied that he could bring the Suns into the Western Conference Finals.

Brian is not optimistic that the Suns won the championship in Guo Xu's six-year contract. How could it be possible with a group of newcomers? Moreover, the newcomer recommended by Guo Xu is fatter than O'Neal. He wants to drive Haslem away, which is annoying.

Other players praised Guo Xu in interviews, hoping to leave a good impression on him in this way.

Stardameier's determination is the most direct. He is a true person. He dares to say something and fire. He can pk the fire extinguisher when he is angry.

"Jason is the point guard I want to partner the most. I was so happy when I heard that he joined the Suns. He thought he was stronger than Iverson, Marbury and others. If he took more shots, he would definitely score a lot, but he would be willing to cooperate with his teammates, and we will definitely cooperate well."

Marion said: "During the World Championships, I deeply realized the importance of having a good point guard in the team. I am very happy that Jason joined. I can't wait to start the new season. Not only is he selfless, he has strong personal scoring ability, and I also have confidence in making the playoffs."

Veteran Kukochi gave Guo Xu a high evaluation. "I experienced that game with the Hawks where he scored 67 points, and I still remember it freshly. He is so scary. I'm glad I can be a teammate with him. I'm ready to watch him perform on the court and receive his pass and shoot."

Another veteran of the Bulls, Randy Brown, also mentioned his past experience against Guo Xu, and said bluntly that they had a huge gap.

"I think his scoring explosiveness is comparable to Michael Jordan. He just didn't have as many mobile phones when he was in the Lakers. I've played against him at the Celtics, and it feels like a nightmare."
