Chapter 270 [Immediately!] Right away! The farther you go, the better! 】

Since Pedrager didn't shoot, he didn't go to the free throw line, and the SuperSonics only had 2 seconds left to attack.

The throw-in was sent out and passed to Pedrager, who forced a throw on the left side in the face of Jack Chacalidis, the ball bounced out of the frame and Marion grabbed the rebound.

The speed of the supersonic players is not fast, Guo Xu wants to launch a fast attack, but after observing it, he can only fall into position, because the Suns players are slower.

He dribbled the ball to the front court and played with his teammates in the middle, attracted the bag and then distributed the ball to Gugliotta in the middle, this time he didn't dare to shoot when there was an open space, and passed the ball to Marion who was running on the left side.

Marion made a close-range pass from the left to Joe Johnson, who cut through the corner to the basket, who forced a layup from Barry. 2 to 0.

JO JOHNSON IS A STRONG FLOOR SWINGER, 201CM TALL AND WEIGHS 107 KG. He is very similar to Pierce, he is a technical flow player with solid basic skills, with almost no shortcomings in his comprehensive skills, and he can shoot and play alone. In Guo Xu's previous life, some fans ridiculed him as a contemporary Jordan.

Supersonic offense, Payton passed the ball to his teammates first in the half, ran to the horns and turned his back to pick it up, and singled out Guo Xu to turn around and shoot the basketball. 2 to 2.

The sun attacked, Guo Xu blocked and dismantled again, and the opponent wrapped up again......

The offense in these rounds is a microcosm of the entire quarter of the game between the two sides, with positional battles, dull back-and-forth passes, no wonderful dunks, and low shooting percentage.

Supersonic coach McMillan is very clear about Guo Xu's ability, and he is stuck at this point, not allowing him to break through or shoot three points, and letting others shoot.

In the first quarter, Joe Johnson and Marion both played well, scoring 8 and 6 points respectively, Guo Xu made 1 of 2 shots, only scored 2 points and 2 assists, and the Suns led 24-15.

Suns coach Frank Johnson was smiling and smug on the sidelines, feeling his tactics were successful and kept off the supersonic offense.

As everyone knows, Guo Xu had the urge to beat this thing when he came off the field. No, it's just that beating him up is too cheap, and you have to let Ha Fat sit on him with a butt.

Playing supersonic or defending? The supersonic center is a second-round show, extremely slow, allowing Stoudamire to run on the court and blow up the supersonic interior line in minutes.

However, Smalls sat on the sidelines for a full quarter, and Frank fell in love with Chacalidis.

The sun played a slow position throughout the game, if Guo Xu and Marion ran faster, Frank would teach them a lesson after the game, "You have to stabilize the rhythm and play the success rate." ”

D'Antoni advised: "We just need to pick up the tempo and the opponent can't defend at all, so why not try to break fast? ”

Frank didn't hear it and continued to emphasize defense.

In the final quarter, Barry faced the Suns Twin Towers, played off-ball cover with his teammates, ran to catch the ball and shoot, and hit four three-pointers in a single quarter, overtaking the score in one fell swoop.

Thankfully, Chacalidis was plagued by a foul and went to rest, and Gugliotta was tired. Guo Xu and Xiao Si played blocking and dismantling, passing the ball and cutting the ball and making a quick stop jumper, and won the game 12-2 in a wave.

90-86, the Suns won very hard in the face of the weak team, Guo Xu performed well with 22 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, but he had a black face throughout the press conference and was too lazy to evaluate the game.

He can now be sure that pre-season is not a scouting of newcomers, and manager Frank is a big SB who doesn't even know what his players are suitable for.

He allowed Nene to play just six minutes in the whole game, reusing veteran blue-collar Scott Williams. Scott was casually empty on the offensive end, not fast on the defensive end, and was also scum in the defensive end.

This year's first-round rookie Jacobson was able to catch and shoot, and the defensive end was not a loss, playing only 3 minutes in the whole game.

Guo Xu, Joe Johnson, and Marion played 40 minutes, 42 minutes and 45 minutes respectively, and the Suns did not rotate at all, and Guo Xu didn't know how this person became a coach.

Frank's lineup arrangement is very rigid, which is the set left by Skells last season, the two standing piles are dragging their feet inside, so that the team can't play fast attack, and Guo Xu has to be caught in the positional battle.

In the second game, the Suns narrowly defeated the weak Cavaliers in the home opener, with a score of 83-74, and the scene was so ugly that it was impossible to watch. Guo Xu and Marion won two pairs, and the others played soy sauce.

After the game, Guo Xu couldn't praise the two inside teammates who started at all, and he couldn't say anything against his will.

Nene didn't play a minute in this game, Alston only played 8 minutes, Joe Johnson only played 24 minutes after resting, and Chacalidis and Gugliotta were in the starting position.

Later, the Suns met a playoff powerhouse and lost to the Mavericks and Pistons.

Facing the Trail Blazers, Hawks, Nuggets, and Rockets, the Suns won by 1 point twice, 3 points once, and 5 points once.

Guo Xu played steadily, and in the last 6 seconds, he made a stop-and-go shot, and he quasi-killed Yao Ming's rocket.

Relying on the personal ability of Guo Xu, Marion, Stoudamire, and Joe Johnson, the Suns started with 6 wins and 2 losses, and the terrible thing is that they did not score more than 100 points in these 8 games.

Guo Xu didn't know what it was like to score less than 100 points in the Lakers last season, and it was the norm to beat the opponent in the third quarter. In the Suns, although his statistics are higher than last season, averaging 24.3 points and 6.6 assists per game, his efficiency has actually decreased, because he has increased his playing time by 6 minutes, shooting only 47.1% from the field and 40.4% from three-point range, both career lows.

At the press conference, Frank was very happy, and he began to point out the country, and he thought that the Suns won the game because of his own coaching, and the tactics were properly arranged.

As a result, Frank was handsome for only one day, and in back-to-back games, the Suns lost 76-99 to the aging Jazz, and all players except Guo Xu and Marion scored double-doubles.

The starting Suns "Twin Towers" never scored double-doubles, and generally the two of them combined did not go double-doubles, and the guards were casually broken through by the guards, and they couldn't grab a few rebounds, but they just pressed Xiao Si and Nene steadily.

Because of the existence of the "Twin Towers", Guo Xu can't fight without tactics, and he can't attack quickly. Marion has to retreat to protect the backcourt rebound, otherwise the opponent may grab the frontcourt rebounds in a row, and there can't be only two guards to play less and more fast breaks.

At the end of November, the Suns lost to the Warriors, and their record changed to 8-7. Frank still thinks he's doing a good job, winning more than half of his chances, much better than last season.

At the beginning of December, after losing to the Heat, Nets, and Celtics in the East, losing to the Grizzlies twice and losing to the Warriors again, the Suns suffered a wave of seven consecutive defeats, and their record became 8-13 and fell out of the playoffs.

Frank made a reason for the loss, and even said that the outside players did not play according to his tactics, and the Suns had to play a combination of inside and outside, and give more passes to the low post inside, rather than shooting from the outside.

Guo Xu and Joe Johnson gave Chacalidis a pass to the low post, is this a tactic that normal people can come up with?

After this game, Guo Xu was completely angry.

He had communicated with D'Antoni many times before, suggesting that he reuse Nene and Smalls for fast breaks. Frank vetoed them all, and in turn told the two about the importance of defense, even though the two interior lines he reused were the team's defensive black hole.

His reasons are very bizarre, although Chakalidis and Gugliotta are not well defended, but the inexperienced Smalls and Nene are even more difficult to defend because they are too young.

After returning to the home stadium, Guo Xu and D'Antoni went to find manager Brian Colangelo together.

Their request is very simple, to promote D'Antoni as the coach, and Frank's big SB must get out! Immediately! Right away! The farther you go, the better!
