Chapter 450 [My biggest enemy is garbage time]

The Mavericks held a press conference first, and everyone present was very upset, especially Nash.

The first time in the history of the Mavericks was cut so many points by a player. There was no ancient person in front and no comer behind. I missed the vastness of the world, and I burst into tears.

Nash didn't say a few words in total, his mind was blank. Some disappointments were inevitable, but most of them were because you overestimated yourself. Nash hoped that he could get the upper hand against Guo Xu, but he really couldn't do it. After this game, the nickname of "not being careful" was probably going to fall on him soon.

Nash actually has specialties on the defensive end. He is good at creating offensive fouls, which is a good defensive method. But this move is completely useless to Guo Xu. Not to mention that Guo Xu now has a star whistle, even ordinary players about 180cm tall are rarely blown by blowing the ball and hitting people. The small guard doesn't look like he can knock people down.

Old Nelson helplessly admitted that he had no choice but to deal with Guo Xu, but he didn't think there was something wrong with his defensive strategy. "This is just the difference between Jason scoring 70 points and 40 points and 20 assists. If he scored more assists, we couldn't even play in overtime. Do you think he is the kind of player who can always double-team?"

Whether inside or outside, the best choice for players when being double-teamed is always to pass the ball. Old Nelson admires Guo Xu very much, but unfortunately the two of them may not have the chance to cooperate in this life.

At the press conference of the Suns, the venue was filled with reporters, and some people could not enter after a while.

Guo Xu talked about his thoughts: "Today my hands were very hot, so I shot more and then scored 71 points. That's it, I'm very happy."

The reporter asked: "Are you just happy? Are you surprised?"

Guo Xu shook his head and smiled and said, "I'm not surprised. I think it's normal for this to happen when most of the ball is concentrated in the hands of one player, especially for fast players. It's difficult for opponents to double-team when counterattacking. I got a lot of singles opportunities today."

As soon as he said this, the reporters were surprised.

A reporter asked: "Are you saying that this is not your limit? Are you confident that you will get more points in the future?"

"This depends on the opponent's situation. It is really difficult to get high scores. Both sides must be evenly matched. If we lead by 2 or 30 points in three quarters against weak teams, then I can only go down and rest."

The reporters all thought this was big news, and Guo Xu was very confident. To put it bluntly, he said, "My biggest enemy is garbage time"!

The reporter asked: "You are only 22 years old this year, but you have won many personal honors that NBA players will never get in their entire lives. What do you think about this?"

Guo Xu smiled and said, "It's cool, but it's not enough. My goal is to win the finals FMVP this season, which means that the Suns have also won the championship."

The reporters applauded, as long as he could lead the Suns to win the championship, he would be the number one star in the team history.

The reporter asked: "Did you notice that the audience was standing and watching the football at the last moment and shouting MVP?"

"Of course, that's the biggest motivation for me to play, and why I love basketball. I'm very happy when playing on the court and want to bring happiness to the fans, which makes a lot of sense."

The reporter asked: "Even Michael Jordan has never experienced a night like you. Do you feel very accomplished?"

Guo Xu shook his head: "No, although Jordan has never scored more than 70 points in a single game, he has five regular season MVPs, six championships, six FMVPs, and ten scoring champions. That is definitely more fulfilling than scoring high scores in a regular season. I hope I can be as great as him in the future, rather than just playing a beautiful game."

The reporter asked: "There are already many people comparing you with Jordan. What do you think?"

"I'm glad that someone compared me to the greatest player in history, which means I'm also starting to enter the ranks of greatness. Although we are different types of players, different positions, but the same goal is to lead the team to win many championships. This comparison is a motivation for me."

A female reporter asked: "Is it a reason why your girlfriend is watching the game on the sidelines today?"

"I have many female friends. Who are you talking about?" Guo Xu asked with a smile.

The reporter wanted to set a trap for him. If he answered immediately, even if he didn't admit it, people would be sure that he had a girlfriend.

The female reporter then added: "It's Miss Fox who starred in the movie with you."

"I often play harder if I have friends to watch the game. Here I want to tell the Celtics a bad news. Avril and Britney will come to Phoenix to play with me on the 30th, and go to the home court to watch the game. I will definitely perform with all my strength that day."

Guo Xu brought out two celebrity friends to distract the topic. He was not lying. They had already agreed to come and go to taste the pizza in his shop together on the 31st.

During the Christmas and New Year holidays in December, busy singers can also relax on holidays. The two girls are not just here to support Guo Xu’s competition or the newly opened pizza restaurant, but to find him to sing.

The girlfriend's topic could not continue, and another reporter asked: "I heard that a teammate wanted you to sign the technical statistics table. Is that true?"

"Yes, Dessa Gena (Diopp) strongly asked me to do this, and then I signed it, he likes the data the most."

There was a burst of laughter in the venue because Diop is one of the most dataless players in the league. He actually likes data very much. Is it true that things he can't get the most precious?

The reporter asked: "What will you do tomorrow morning? Will you go out to celebrate?"

"Well, we all made an appointment to go out to celebrate together, have a meal first, and then go golf or bowling."

Some reporters asked Guo Xu to evaluate the Mavericks players, but he passed by perfunctorily.

Many people can see that the Mavericks' poor defense is also an important reason why Guo Xu scored high scores. The only player who the Mavericks are good at defending this season is Nahura, and their overall strength has declined compared to last season.

The reporters hope that Guo Xu would say a few words that they would point their finger at two international players after the game, saying that they were defensive black holes and soft balls. In addition, questioning Old Nelson's coaching ability is also a routine for the media.

Guo Xu did not express his opinion, so he would not offend people for no reason.

The Mavericks' defense is indeed very bad. This flaw was not compensated in his previous life until he signed with Marion, Tyson Chandler and others. If the Mavericks had defensive experts, they might have been the champion in the 2006 life, and they would not have been the Black Eight Miracle by the Warriors in 2007.

Guo Xu drove home. Megan had already roasted turkey and a dish of smoked salmon. The smoked fillets and butter were combined with fresh lemon juice. It looked full of color, aroma and flavor.

"I'm back." Megan smiled and said, "I read the news of the press conference, you're so awesome."

"You are also great. I believe you will definitely finish eating this turkey today." Guo Xu smiled.

Megan shook his clip in front of him, pretending to be dissatisfied. Even if they bought a smaller turkey, it weighed 15 pounds, so it would be strange if they could finish it.

Although they were the only two of them at home, Meghan still made the Christmas dinner very formally and prepared a bottle of wine, which was very low in the condition. It was fine for Guo Xu to drink some.

The two chatted for a while and then talked about tomorrow's team activities. The players could take their families, and Guo Xu asked Meghan to go with them.
