Chapter Eighty-Seven: [Soaring!] 】

The Trail Blazers attacked, continued to block and dismantle in the middle, Stoudeyer relied on speed to get rid of the ball and then distributed the ball to the middle, there was a dislocation on the court, and Rashid faced Guo Xu's straight-arm jump shot. 22 to 17.

RASHID's real height of 211CM and arm span of 229CM make it difficult to reach Guo Xu if he lifts the ball high above his head without jumping.

The Lakers attacked, Guo Xu was brought to the front court and no one was covered, and after being close to Stoudamire, he passed to Fox on the right, who gave O'Neal a hanging ball, and O'Neal hit the basket, turned around and threw it under the bag and missed.

The Trail Blazers' offense is the same old routine, this time Rashid received the ball, O'Neal defended it, and Guo Xu went to chase the guard. Rashid passed the ball, and Stadamier was stuck by Guo Xu before he could turn around after receiving the ball.

Guo Xu has no privileges on the offensive end, and on the defensive end, he can use the best attitude to complete the tasks assigned by the coach, and will definitely not let Stoudamire break through easily. The latter did not force the attack and passed to Bonche-Wells.

Wells is Pippen's substitute, 196CM tall and 95kg, characterized by super explosiveness, unstoppable when rushed, Harpera fouled him and sent him to the free throw line.

Wells made one of two free throws to make it 22-18.

With two minutes remaining, both sides began to make substitutions during the dead ball. Madsen and George came on, and Harper and Grant were substituted.

Guo Xu didn't have a good chance next, the player played according to the tactics arranged by the coach, O'Neal singled out Davis and turned to hook to score, the next round the Trail Blazers fouled, and O'Fat made a free throw. Near the end of the day, Fox made a foul on a pass to the basket and made one of two free throws.

The Trail Blazers scored two points on a breakaway layup, and Smith made both free throws for a foul.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led 26-22.

In the NBA, the interval between the end of the first quarter and the beginning of the second quarter, the end of the third quarter and the beginning of the fourth quarter is 130 seconds, and the interval between the end of the second quarter and the beginning of the third quarter is 15 minutes; There are two types of timeouts, 100 seconds and 60 seconds.

Phil Jackson's dislike of calling a timeout is also directly related to the rules, he likes to take advantage of this time to make substitutions and arrange tactics, and the five in the second quarter are Guo Xu, Ryddle, George, Grant, and Foster.

"In the positional battle, Jason held the ball and attacked, Greg blocked and dismantled in the middle, and Hores covered without the ball on the side to help Ryder catch the ball and shoot. Grab the rebound, Jason can push forward quickly and launch a counterattack. ”

Everyone knows that Guo Xu is going to be on the top, he played 4 minutes in the first quarter, and the coach still didn't mean to let Brian Shaw play.

Jackson also hopes that someone can lead the Lakers' bench offense, Bryson Shaw can't, it's hard to average 5 points per game, he is too slow to advance on the court, and the partnership with Ryder and George works poorly.

If Ryder is allowed to play with the ball, people have already seen it in the preseason, and it will be a mess. Now, Jackson wants Guo Xu to try to bring the rhythm up, and let the OK combination rest for a while.

He gave Guo Xuding three minutes of performance time in his heart, and if the opponent overtook the score, he replaced O'Neal and Kobe Bryant as soon as possible, and began to be good at the main style of play.

Grant came out to deal with the Trail Blazers' bench interior Sean Kemp, although the "Rain Man" declined last season, but the name is still very bluffing, Jackson sent the veteran to go up to limit it, but he can't believe the stunned Madson.

Five Trail Blazers players played, Greg Anthony, Stercy Ogmon, Bunch Wells, Rasheed Wallace, Sean Kemp.

It can be seen from the personnel adjustment that the Trail Blazers want to win this game, the team's number one star Rashid played the whole first quarter, and now he has come up to bring the bench, Dunleavy wants him to play all the time.

Eric Barkley, the Trail Blazers' 28th rookie point guard in the first round this year, is still quietly guarding the water cooler on the sidelines, and the coach can't remember this person unless it goes into garbage time.

The game continued, the Lakers had the ball, and Guo Xu saw that it was Kemp as a cameo center, and he gestured to Foster outside the three-point line to find cover. Foster was stunned for a moment, but decided to cover outside the three-point line and block Anthony.

Born in 1967, Greg Anthony is a league veteran, a first-round pick and 12th pick rookie in '91, with a height of 183cm and a weight of 80 kg. In his peak 95-96 season, he averaged 14 points, 2.5 rebounds, 6.9 assists and 1.7 steals per game in the Vancouver Grizzlies.

But after that season, Anthony suffered two major injuries and his physical fitness declined across the board, averaging just 6.3 points and 2.5 assists per game last season. He was afraid of confrontation, and his speed became ordinary.

Guo Xu easily got rid of Anthony on the right side by covering, the inside line did not change the defense, Guo Xu moved sideways and made a quick stop jump shot, and it was a three-point shot of 70 degrees on the right side, Kemp was in a daze at the horns, and he didn't even stretch out his hand.

Guo Xu was very well prepared, two years of shooting was not practiced in vain, the sense of rhythm was perfect, and he hit a three-pointer.

29 to 22. Guo Xu scored 8th personal points.

Woodson sighed: "Jason Guo performed so well on the offensive end, he shot 3 of 3 after playing, he refused to go to other teams for trials, no team forced him, and now he probably regrets it." ”

Horvath laughed: "His luck is also very good, Fisher's injury has given him a chance to rise, it depends on whether he can seize it." Camp is directly responsible for this ball, he didn't prevent it from going out, I don't know what he did this summer, his body is completely out of shape. ”

The Trail Blazers attacked, passing twice, and Wells hit a shot wide of Ryder.

The two are about the same size, both are a little round, but they are not slow to move, they belong to the same style, and the Trail Blazers chose Wells to use Ryder as a template.

Unfortunately, Wells' style of play is also very similar to that of Ryder, a master of random battles, and his shooting options are poor. Grant grabbed the rebound in the backcourt and passed it to Guo Xu.

Guo Xu didn't pass his teammates to the fast attack, and slowly dribbled the ball through the half.

Except for Kemp, the Trail Blazers are not slow to defend themselves, and they can't gain a local numerical advantage by advancing quickly. Ryder beckoned to the front court quickly, Guo Xu ignored it, Jackson saw this scene and was silent on the surface, and applauded Guo Xu in his heart.

If Guo Xu sees his teammates beckoning and passes, and doesn't use his brain to play, the ceiling will not be very high in the future, and people like Ryder with a hole in their brains are not a good opportunity to ignore him at all.

Guo Xu beckoned to cover again, Foster came out to block Anthony, and Guo Xu still took the position he liked on the right. Rashid followed Grant near the baseline penalty area and couldn't help, and Kemp stood near the free throw line in a daze.

Kemp has just joined the Trail Blazers this season and has a big name, and the players have not been able to express their displeasure with him in the preseason. But his lax defense will hurt the team, so he stared at Foster, and when Guo Xu was air, Dunleavy stood up on the sidelines and shouted to Kemp: "Sean, change the defense and get out!" ”

Hearing the coach's shout, Kemp reacted, it was too late to act again, Guo Xu was another easy emergency stop jump shot, the same position, a quick shot, a perfect arc, and the ball was hollow into the net.

32-22, Guo Xu scored his 11th point and hit his third three-pointer.

O'Neal stood up on the sidelines and took the lead in applauding Guo Xu, the Trail Blazers fans were a little confused, and the courtside boos stopped.

No one expected that the last rookie of the Lakers would be so fierce, and he soared alone!
