Guo Xu rested in the second quarter, and the Raptors quickly overtook the score under the leadership of Mike James, Morris Peterson, and Bonner.

This Raptors team has no shortage of talent, and when Marvin plays as a power forward, the team's overall mobility is super strong, and it can both drop ground and play counterattacks.

The Raptors can't win, the main reason is that the center defense is too poor and there is no one to protect the frame, much like the Lakers last season. This weakness is fatal, giving the Raptors a Kwame Brown and making the playoffs with their roster depth.

The Suns are now stronger than the Raptors on the inside, although they don't have a 20+10 star like Bosh, but the three rotations are good at grabbing rebounds, two are good at defense, and except for Vallejo, all the interior lines have stable mid-range shots that can open up space.

The Raptors mainly relied on Bonner to open up space, and he was in a brave state, shooting 2 of 2 from three-point range; Peterson and James scored five and six points, respectively.

On the Suns' side, veteran Kukoc threw in a mid-range shot and a three-pointer to stabilize the situation, Howard and Bell each scored two points, and when Guo Xu returned to the court after a 5-minute break, the Suns trailed by one point 45-46.

The Raptors also adjusted the lineup, replacing Bosh and Rose, replacing Marvin and Dota Smith. Starting center Aruyu continued to guard the drinking fountain on the sidelines, his expression glazed over.

SMITH IS A SECOND-ROUND PICK SELECTED BY THE RAPTORS IN 2004, A SWINGMAN WHO IS 201CM TALL AND WEIGHS 98 KG. He is not bad physically, but his skills and shooting are poor, and his defense is average, and he has no special skills. He can only play five or six minutes on the fringe this season, and he can be cut tomorrow summer.

The 2004 draft of the Raptors can be said to be a complete failure, and the two selected can't be cultivated, and they are loopholes as soon as they appear. Aruyu usually starts for a few minutes, and after being replaced, he doesn't play for a long time, and then comes up to play for a while when the opponent is attacking the basket and his teammates can't defend him.

Aruyu, who is really good at scoring, can't defend himself against Aruyu, who relies on steroids to train his muscles, so he only averaged 12 minutes per game as a starter this season, which is about the same as his rookie season, and the Raptors wanted to trade him but no one wanted him.

As soon as Guo Xu came on the court, the situation changed greatly, and he was too easy for James.

James is a guard who rarely fouls, with an average of only two per game, and he has already committed two fouls in the first quarter, so he is afraid that he will not be able to stay on the court and continue to play, so he will not casually reach out and be close to him on the defensive end, and the league has blown a lot of such fouls this year.

James defended Guo Xu at a disadvantage in speed and did not fight closely, which gave Guo Xu a lot of space to catch the ball and make moves and accelerate. As soon as Guo Xu rushed up in the counterattack, James was either over, or he was leaned on a layup and couldn't be blocked. This undrafted rookie is far from Guo Xu in terms of physical fitness, and he is always half a beat slower.

Mitchell could see that James couldn't defend the counterattack, so he asked Peterson, the team's best defender, to help pack a few rounds and empty Howard. As a result, Guo Xu scored a three-point shot, a breakthrough layup, and an assist for Howard to dunk a basketball.

Peterson is 201CM tall and weighs 100 kilograms, and he does not suffer from swinging people against movement, and it is difficult for strong people to defend and defend them. And Guo Xu and his university are alumni, they know the roots, how can this be prevented?

In the last two minutes of the second quarter, there was a strange landscape on the court, the Raptors wrapped Guo Xu in the midcourt, Payton himself did not shoot, the vacant position was organized, and the pass was found to Guo Xu, who kept running under the double cover.

Guo Xu didn't care about the position of his teammates, he threw it when he had a chance, and scored 17 points and 1 assist in a single quarter, 47 points, 3 assists and 1 steal in the half, almost 50+, only one point less than the Knicks. The most amazing thing is that this is the statistic he played in 19 minutes, and he made eight more three-pointers, shooting more from the field than the Knicks did in that game.

The Suns ended the first half with a 64-56 lead.

At halftime, online fans began to discuss whether it was possible to see a second 100 points in a single game. Even if Guo Xu's score is not 100, it should be easy to go to 80.

TNT's ratings exploded, it was like a live broadcast of the finals, and the star's soaring score attracted fans the most.

At halftime, Barkley said that if it weren't for Chamberlain, maybe the top ten single-game scoring in the NBA in the future would be occupied by Guo Xu.

Chamberlain only scored 100 points once, and the others are all 70+, he has never scored more than 80 points, if Guo Xu scores 80 points this time, can it be said that his scoring ability is better than Chamberlain, who can't shoot three points?

Many people expect him to set another record, and 33 points at half time is an impossible task for most people, but it doesn't seem difficult at all for Guo Xu, who is hot against him.

In the visiting locker room, coach Mitchell went berserk and criticized the players' defense, especially the defense of the two point guards.

He is a retired player to become a head coach, not an academic coach, and he has been playing for the Timberwolves in the latter part of his career, assisting "hard" for a long time, and also contaminated with some tough habits, which can be called "tough".

In fact, the Raptors have fallen to this point, and Mitchell is inseparable, he has always been a failed man.

He was a failure when he was a player, and he was just a role player, and his only good resume was playing 757 games for the Timberwolves, scoring 7,161 points, second only to Garnett.

But what team are the Timberwolves? With the exception of the 2003-04 season, most of the time it was a struggle of failure. And Mitchell retired in 2002, and the time he entered the West finals had nothing to do with him. His achievements are all blue-collar earnings, and he has no personal talent at all.

Later, he started coaching, first as an assistant, but still very unsuccessfully.

When the Bucks failed, the Bobcats failed, and he was hired by the Raptors as the sixth head coach in a decade in franchise history, he repaid everyone's favor with a 33-49 record and made Aruyu the worst No. 8 pick in league history, losing the greatest player in Raptors history, Vince Carter.

At that time, the Raptors coaches could no longer coexist, and Carter and Mitchell clashed in the locker room before being traded. Carter lifted Mitchell on his shoulders like a barbell and threw him onto the massage table. After leaving, Carter also came to fight the Raptors and killed him several times.

Attentive Raptors fans will find that Mitchell is as precise as an alarm clock when it comes to who he rotates, when he picks each player, and how long each player plays. When the time comes, no matter how the person plays, he will be pulled off the court, and the only thing that can change this law is fouls, and those who are troubled by fouls will be replaced early.

After each timeout, the Raptors' offense would be an arc top block and then end up being seen through by the opponent. The Raptors' back-and-forth passes generally end with forced shots from both wings. Mitchell often ignores the opponent's defensive weakness, refuses to take advantage of this, and chooses to let the core work tiringly to attack the opponent's defensive strengths, and then loses hard.

In Guo Xu's previous life, this thing won the best coach award in the 2006-07 season with an average record of 47 wins and 35 losses, on the grounds that the Raptors won many more games than last season.

How much does the Raptors' improvement have to do with Mitchell? That's actually the credit of the general manager, the transaction.

That season, the Raptors selected the top pick Bagnani and traded for point guard TJ Ford, center Nesterovich, and a group of fierce men such as Humphries, Gabajosa, Calderon, and Peterson on the bench. Then the Raptors were eliminated 4-2 in the first round by the slumping Nets.

To tell the truth, this person really deserves to, and the Raptors will treat him as a treasure and be able to send Carter away for him.

With the help of this kind of undercover coach, as long as Guo Xu dares to make a move, it is really difficult to think of a high score. ()
