Chapter 383 [Reality is a bit cruel, he thinks too much]
When returning to defense, Ricky Davis once again showed his "leadership temperament" and shouted at James with dissatisfaction: "Don't shoot in a flash, pass the ball if you're not sure!"
James ignored Davis and frowned and returned to defense. The bad relationship between the two has been publicly made in the team.
In James's opinion, Davis is just a waste who doesn't want to win and only knows how to brush data. In terms of qualifications and the "big z" who plays celebrity data, Ilgoscas, is much older than him and has never been so arrogant.
James is a very smart person. He is dissatisfied with Davis but will not complain to the media. He just silently grabs the ball in the game and speaks with his strength. He is the person in charge of the organization. If Davis wants to make more moves than him and has better data, he must play more cancerous than last season. Can the management bear it?
Guo Xu played pick-and-roll with Nene in the middle, James failed to chase and defend, Boozer was slow to switch defense, Guo Xu held the ball into the basket, "big z" retreated to cover the penalty area, and Guo Xu sent the ball to the bottom line on the left side.
Xiao Si got an open spot and made a steady shot in the mid-range shot, 16-11, Guo Xu had the fifth assist.
James passed the ball in the middle of the game. Davis received the ball from the left and was close to Bale. He turned to the baseline and broke through but failed. He was double-teamed when he turned to the middle. Guo Xu saw the opportunity and took the basketball off and successfully stealed it.
Marion and Sir immediately made a fast break. The Suns made three-for-two in the frontcourt, Dalius defended Marion, James followed Nene, and Guo Xu chased and scored three-pointers in the middle, without anyone interfering with him.
19 to 11, Guo Xu scored 8th.
The Cavaliers attacked, James made another mistake in passing. Davis's intention to reach out with his hands behind his back was too obvious. Bale suddenly made a steal and successfully made a comeback. Guo Xu retreated and landed in the position.
Nene played pick-and-roll with Guo Xu from outside the three-point line. James was blocked for half a second and had a chance. Boozer mainly defended the breakthrough from a long distance. Guo Xu retreated 60 degrees from the left and scored another one.
22 to 11, Guo Xu scored 11th.
Cavaliers coach Paul Silas asked for a timeout as soon as he saw that the situation was not good.
The 60-year-old coach Silas is a talented person. He was excellent when he was a player. He won three championship rings, was selected as the All-Star twice, and was selected as the best defensive team five times.
Silas also performed very well as a coach. In the five years he coached the Hornets, Silas' regular season record was 208 wins and 155 losses, making it the coach with the most victories in the Hornets' history, with a winning rate of 57.3% ranking second in the Hornets' history. He led the team into the playoffs four times and reached the second round twice.
However, the Cavaliers currently have serious flaws in their lineup, which cannot be solved by the coach's timeout and emphasis on tactics.
Xu Jicheng commented: "James didn't do a good job in controlling the rhythm. The Cavaliers' offense was too simple, but he can't blame him. He is already very good at playing the point guard with such a tall height."
Zhang Heli said: "Today is another high-scoring game. I think the Suns' attack power will definitely be the best in the league this season."
Xu Jicheng said: "Guo Xu is the point guard born for the offense. I hope the Cavaliers can withstand it, otherwise he won't be able to play for too long."
On the tnt radio, Barkley and Smith were also cheering for the Cavaliers, for fear that they would lose too quickly. The commentators hoped that the stars would play for a while and get better data, otherwise they would feel bored in the final quarter of the commentary on the Fringe People's Battle.
During the timeout, D'Antoni changed another person, Marion rested, and Joe Johnson appeared. He emphasized the double-cover tactics and was preparing to help Guo Xu play luxurious data in the home opening game to enhance the morale of the team. His teammates were also happy to help him brush the data, which was the result of giving gifts before.
The second-in-command Marion can accept it. He renewed his contract with a 6-year maximum salary in 2002, which expired in 2009, and was a player option in 2008, which did not affect the commercial value because he didn't have that thing. Even if he played beautiful data, he would not be selected as an All-Star or get a commercial endorsement opportunity.
With Guo Xu as the absolute core attack, it is difficult for Marion to obtain the ball, so it is better to save his energy and lead a substitute in the second quarter.
The game continued, and the Cavaliers did not substitute, James was still playing point guard.
Davis played singles with the ball, but failed to get rid of Bale who was close to her, and passed the ball to Dalius who cut the ball. The latter relied on his height to bounce the advantage of his height and beat Joe Johnson at the low post on the right, and scored cricket with one hand. 22 to 13.
Guo Xu and Nene played pick-and-roll, and passed it to Nene to cut the basket. The latter wanted to dunk and ended up blocking the "big z" who returned to defense. Boozer picked up the rebound and launched a counterattack. James misplaced the match against Guo Xu, forcibly breaking through and causing a foul.
James made one of two free throws, 22-14.
When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu passed it to Joe Johnson in the halftime, and ran to the bottom corner on the left and then ran back. Nene and Xiao Si suddenly had an "elevator cover" in the middle to block James who was chasing him.
Boozer and "Big Z" both failed to defend themselves at the low post. Joe Johnson passed the ball to Guo Xu from the right side. The middle was completely empty. Guo Xu received the ball and turned around to jump the three-pointer. Without anyone to defend, he quickly made a slight backward. The ball was hollowed into the net.
He has been practicing three-pointers for many years, and his sense of rhythm is deeply rooted in his bones. He will not slow down his shooting speed just because his opponent is not guarding it.
25 to 14, the 14th point in the individual.
When returning to defense, Guo Xu opened his arms and the fans of the audience cheered.
Zhang Heli smiled and said, "It appears, the beautiful inside player closes the ball and makes a move. Guo Xu catches the ball and makes a move. His hands are too hot today."
Xu Jicheng said: "In the preseason, Guo Xu kept playing, but many people said that he didn't practice well in the summer and his condition declined. I think he was even better than last season, with two consecutive games out."
The Cavaliers attacked, James forced his breakthrough with the ball frame and broke away from Guo Xu. Under the interference of Sir Xiao, he missed the shot and grabbed the offensive rebound. He even made the shot stronger but missed it. Sir Xiao grabbed the backcourt rebound.
James has good physical fitness, and Sir and Nene are not bad either. They jumped up the block at the basket, making it impossible for them to see the basket clearly.
James's offensive choice this time was very poor. He was eager to score and began to feel a little panicked.
Guo Xu scored on the offensive end and made full play in assists. James felt that if he didn't perform anymore, he didn't know how the media would report this game after the game. Maybe many people would say that he was beaten up by Guo Xu, who was 180cm tall.
James will never say it, but he actually despises Guo Xu a little bit. The reason is Guo Xu's height. He believes that Guo Xu has serious flaws on the defensive end, and his height determines that Guo Xu can only become an ordinary star but not a legend. He believes that the first talent of basketball is height. He is the future of the NBA, and he is the person who is likely to surpass Jordan.
Therefore, before the game, he tried his best to beat Guo Xu and proved that the reality was a bit cruel and he thought too much.
After James rushed in, he could not take into account his defense against Guo Xu. As soon as Sir Joe launched a counterattack, the latter passed the ball to the ground and then looked for Guo Xu. Guo Xu, who was misplaced and left Boozer, was completely empty.
He turned around and took a step forward, and without defense, he made a three-pointer in the middle.
28 to 14, the individual scored 17th.
This is Guo Xu's fifth three-pointer. The Suns' home fans cheered so loudly that they were about to break through the roof. Some people shouted "mvp" directly!
Xu Jicheng smiled and said, "I think Guo Xu is the only one in the league who can do such things. He doesn't make layups when there is no defense in a single fast break, and chooses to shoot three-pointers."
