After losing, a hidden danger for the Suns began to emerge. The young players' inexperienced problems were caused by their lack of experience. They were not good at adjusting their state and performing unstable. They would fall into a downturn for a period of time in the regular season.

Even Joe Johnson could not get rid of this vicious circle, and Josh Howard and Blake even hit the rookie wall.

When Guo Xu was able to pass the new player stage safely, the Lakers' overall strength was too strong, and any star could drive the entire team. Not only O'Neal, but Kobe could also throw his opponents when he was hot. People would not blame Guo Xu's occasionally performing incorrectly.

Now the Suns are not as strong as the dominant league as a whole, and they need to play their roles. Guo Xu will have problems after a break, and Blake's offensive organizational ability is much worse.

The Suns have only two point guards. The young point guards in the free market in the summer are unwilling to join the Suns. They know that they have to play substitute for Guo Xu, with a maximum of 15 minutes of playing time. How can they play beautiful data and compete for a big contract in the future? Alstom left for long-term interests.

Experienced veteran point guards are unwilling to come. One is that the Suns are not optimistic in the summer, and the other is for the sake of face. Peyton lets the Suns hug Guo Xu's thighs and can only be a substitute point guard. Even if he wins the championship, he will not be happy. "Little Bug" Tim Hardaway wants to come. The Suns don't want it. He only played 10 games last season and has been unable to play.

This is not a problem that the coaching staff can solve to boost morale. The players have to adjust themselves. On the court, Guo Xu is the only one who can help them. He has to help young teammates find confidence and help them perform.

In the past, the Suns were used to let Guo Xu take the lead in the first quarter, trying to catch his opponent off guard first, and then pass more balls to his teammates after the opponent starts to double-team to help young players perform.

After the coaching team discussed it, it was changed to Guo Xu's pass in the first quarter. When his teammates really couldn't bear the offensive responsibility, he would make more moves on his own. This would also have unexpected results. The opponent might not have expected that the main attacker would be the character player.

On December 9, the Suns defeated the Mavericks 127-90 at home, and the team scored in double digits, sweeping the decline.

Guo Xu made 7 of 12 shots, 3 of 5 three-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored a large double-double with 23 points and 20 assists.

Joe Johnson found his accurate shot, made 9 of 13 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 21 points and 4 assists; Stadameier made 6 of 10 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, scored 16 points, 11 rebounds and 2 steals; Marion, who returned, made 9 of 14 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 20 points and 7 rebounds.

The Mavericks' team scored 5 players in double digits, none of them scored 20+, and the positions on the field overlapped; without defensive experts, the Mavericks' internal and external defenses were all messed up, and the defensive efficiency was second to last in the league.

Old Nelson allowed Antoine Walker and Nowitzki to partner with the inside for a long time, of course they couldn't defend themselves. After the start of the game, the five-star Mavericks had lost 6 games, without any championship. As the third quarter approached the end of this game, Nowitzki sprained his knee while attacking at a low post. Although the injury was not serious, he would have to be absent for at least two weeks.

More and more people question Old Nelson. His style has always been his own way of doing things and his tactics are unreasonable, which has always caused irreconcilable contradictions between him and the players and the management.

This summer is the year for Old Nelson to renew his contract. Cuban gave him the contract, but in Old Nelson's eyes, the contract devalued him. In the end, he chose to compromise. He signed for three years and served as head coach and general manager, with a $5.1 million a year, and a dead contract. No matter what the team is like, there is no bonus.

"He signed it, but the two lost trust," said an insider.

The team's poor record also spent a lot of money in vain. The fate between the old Nelson and the Mavericks is long overdue.

On December 11, the training intensity of the Suns team is not high. They will fly away to the away game in the evening and fight against the Magic tomorrow. Since the Magic is now the bottom-ranked team of the NBA, no one is under pressure.

During free practice, Stardameier said: "I suggest you relax in the dunk contest. Who wants to participate?"

There were three people in the team responding, Marion, Howard and Nene, who all had excellent bounce and liked to dunk.

Guo Xu also had excellent bounce power through two time cycles of exercise, but he was short and could not make any tricks, so he could only be an audience with other teammates on the sidelines.

This season, Xiao Si is preparing to participate in the All-Star Dunk Contest. Every time he trains, he spends some time practicing dunks and asks his teammates to help him think of creativity. Guo Xu helped him think of two, one is to dress up as a Superman, and the other is to cooperate with Guo Xu and he headed the ball and dunk.

"Warcraft" Howard's Superman Dunk was mainly a gimmick. As long as Xiao Si put on a cloak, he would definitely get a high score. The difficulty of his all-in-one cooperation with Nash in his previous life was not very difficult, and he beat creativity.

Guo Xu believes that as long as Xiao Si enters the final, these two creativity will be enough to win, because Xiao Si can also have two moves that can score high scores alone.

After proposing the idea, Guo Xu felt a little unhappy.

In this world, I'm afraid no one has more creative ideas than him. He has watched every dunk contest in his previous life and was impressed by those full-point dunks. But he can only partner with Xiao Si and is not able to dunk on his own. He wants to be a red flower more than the green leaves that set off his teammates.

The team's dunk match ended with Xiao Si's easy victory. He successfully performed a change of hands under his crotch and turned to a one-handed dunk, an all-engage pull-up dunk and a big windmill dunk.

The other three were average, and there was no trick in the inner room, and they were mainly dunks. The most difficult move was to pull the lever backwards.

Howard staged a somewhat reluctant one-handed windmill and self-dumping. He dunked well in actual combat, but his movements were very stiff.

Marion is the most surprising thing. He actually completed a slam dunk with a hand-changing dunk under his crotch, and a half-turn dunk with a self-dumping bottom line. He said that the second move was called "Goddess of Liberty", which is quite difficult, but he made it clearly "Liberty werewolf", and there was no beauty when he shrank his neck. It was also a different story from Xiao Si, and he made it.

Marion has a bounce at the level of a slam dunk contest, but does not have the image and temperament of a slam dunk king, so he has never participated in it and is self-aware and does not show off his ugly appearance.

After training, Guo Xu returned home and watched TV during dinner in the evening. Sports News released the five best goals from yesterday's game, all of which were dunks. Carter, Richardson and Swift gave amazing performances.

Guo Xu said with some envy: "I would have scored like this."

Megan asked with a smile: "Didn't you say you played health basketball so you didn't dunk in the game? Did you change your mind?"

"It's good to deduct one when there is no one to defend, but I'm not pretty. Even if I don't deduct it during the game, I can still perform on the All-Star weekend." Guo Xu sighed.

In his previous life, Nate Robinson rarely dunked in games, but he won the dunk king three times. He attracted many fans and became a celebrity in the NBA.

All those who play basketball must have dreamed of being a Feitianliu player who is good at dunking. A pure dunk player with poor skills and cannot play good data does not have a future, but if the stars can deduct beautifully, they will be more popular. Kobe, Carter, Howard and others are examples.

Most players can only dunk on ordinary slam dunks, just like Guo Xu occasionally dunks in the past few seasons, but he is too lazy to dunk this season. Anyway, his civilian dunks cannot attract people, and they are two points like layups.
