Chapter 186 [Rookie 9 times 30+, the impact begins to ferment]
At the beginning of March, the Lakers beat the Warriors twice, defeated the Grizzlies and Raptors, and the winning streak reached a terrifying 27 games.
In the game on March 4, Antoine Jamison, the core of the Warriors, who had scored 50+ against the Lakers, felt cold in the face of the encirclement and suppression, and played 28 minutes without scoring a point on 0-of-9 shooting, with only 3 rebounds and 2 assists.
O'Neal and Kobe Bryant scored 24 and 20 points respectively, and their performance was average, and Guo Xu slashed 35 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists.
Guo Xu didn't shoot much from the outside, and he broke through the Warriors' 196CM tall and 91-kilogram point guard Bob Sula again and again with the ball. His breakthrough was so sharp that the Warriors players could only stop it with fouls, and Guo Xu made 12 of his career-high 14 free throws.
In Guo Xu's previous life, Sura was a point guard who made Chinese fans hate. What he makes fans remember is not his ball skills, but that he often doesn't pass the ball to Yao Ming as a point guard, likes to play alone, and is inefficient.
What's even more disgusting is Sula's defense, the lateral movement speed is too slow, and any point guard who can break through with the ball can play with him. It's a miracle that Jeff Van Gundy, who is known for his emphasis on defense, likes him a lot.
In the first round of the 2005 playoffs, the Rockets were in great momentum from the beginning, winning two away games in a row, and the situation was very good, but in the end they were eliminated by grabbing seven. Nowitzki averaged 21+8 per game, shooting only 35% from the field and 28% from three-point range; On the Rockets side, Maddy 31+7+7, shot 46%, 37% three-pointer; Yao Ming 21+8+2.7 blocks, shooting 65%.
How did the Rockets lose? Check the stats of Sula and Terry, there were two games in which Terry looked like the future Curry under his defense, and the name change to "Tehao" did not have a sense of disobedience.
Against the Raptors, Ron Harper was injured again, this time with a thigh strain, and he moved too much during a steal to the ball, and his old arms and legs couldn't bear it.
Harper was very calm in his interview after the game: "It's the age of young people, and I'm definitely going to retire at the end of this season." ”
This is just a small episode in the game, and even if the Raptors are fourth in the East, the Lakers will easily abuse them. Carter was evenly matched against Kobe, and the center and point guard positions were completely blown out, especially Guo Xu exploded all the Raptors' substitutes in the second quarter.
Coach Wilkens didn't dare to use the veteran Dell Curry, so he let him play for 10 minutes in the whole game, and he was played by Guo Xu as soon as he got on, and the outside line couldn't provide three-point firepower, and no matter how he ran, he couldn't get rid of Guo Xu's entanglement. The speed difference between the two is too much, and Guo Xu can catch up with the interference after covering.
On March 9, the Lakers hosted the 42-19 Spurs, who ranked second in the West, and many hoped that the Spurs would end the Lakers' winning streak.
In particular, several veteran players of the Bulls team are a little unable to sit still, and no one wants their record to be broken, at least to stay on the leaderboard for a few more years, right? It's only been 5 years since '96, and it's so depressing to have a stronger team in such a short period of time.
It's a pity that the Spurs are not capable of stopping the Lakers, and the gap between Guo Xu VS Avery Johnson alone is not easy to make up.
Guo Xu played 32 minutes, 32 points and 6 assists, and the little general played 30 minutes, only a pitiful 6 points and 4 assists.
The other players of the Spurs assisted Guo Xu, he only needed to divide the ball, and the OK combination would take over the game. The game was one-sided, with Spurs taking the lead just once in the opening period.
O'Neal just played casually this game, scoring 16 points and 10 rebounds, and the Lakers still won. Bryant scored 30 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists, and the three combined for 78 points.
The Spurs were able to hold on until the fourth quarter before losing, thanks to the three blacksmiths of Bryan Shaw, Fox, and Horry, who missed all of their open catch-and-shoot shots, handing over a score card of 0-of-3, 0-of-7, and 0-of-4 respectively.
The Lakers are on a 28-game winning streak, and ABC Radio first introduced the concept of the "Big Three" when evaluating Lakers players, rather than using the term "Trident" to describe them.
Audrey Jones, a female reporter who interviewed Guo Xu in the NCAA, has become a representative of the NBA's beautiful hosts, responsible for interviewing the Lakers, providing a lot of interview materials, and her status on the radio is getting higher and higher.
In the NBA special program discussing Guo Xu, Audrey did not hesitate to praise her. "Although Jason Guo said that he went to the Lakers to hug his thigh, if the opponent really believes this, he will definitely pay a painful price, how can a person who hug his thigh can play 9 times 30+ in his rookie season?"
Host Herm Feige asked, "You have interviewed Jason Guo many times, what kind of person do you think he is?" ”
"A confident, self-disciplined person." Audrey replied.
Herm smiled and asked, "Then do you think he can compare to Iverson?" ”
Audrey nodded: "I think it's totally okay, although he doesn't average as much points per game as Iverson, but he proves himself in another way." He's playing as a team, so he's shooting percentage, and he's not like a point guard, and he's comparable to a lot of interior players. He should be an All-Star this year, and I think he's more qualified than some of the veterans. ”
In the All-Star Game, because there were too many interior players in the West, many people just went through the motions, Karl Malone only played 4 minutes, David Robinson 6 minutes, and McDyce 9 minutes.
Helm asked, "So, you think the Lakers now have three All-Star caliber players, right?" ”
"Yes, it's a team with a big three. And unlike in the 1997-98 season, when the Lakers were selected as All-Stars, Van Exel's strength is significantly inferior to Jason Kuo, and Kobe Bryant is much better than his sophomore self. ”
The All-Star Game league selection in '98 was a bit nonsensical, probably because President David Stern knew that Jordan would retire after the season, and was eager to pick up a popular team to succeed the Bulls, and at the same time launched a young Kobe Bryant and advertised as "Jordan's successor", which is a star-making movement.
Kobe Bryant, who played as a substitute in the Lakers, was selected as an All-Star starter, and it was a bit unreasonable for two teammates who were outside the Lakers to be selected not to be selected, and then Van Exel became a substitute. His stats at the time were completely incomparable to Timberwolves point guard Marbury, and he was only ranked eighth among Western Conference guards in the star poll.
Audrey implicitly pointed out that whether a player can be selected as an All-Star is one thing, and on the other hand, it depends on whether the league is popular or not.
Herm asked, "What heights do you think Jason can reach in the future?" He said he was going to meet Iverson in the Finals, and at the time everyone thought he was too arrogant, but now it seems that it is really likely to happen, and the two teams are in first place in the East and West. ”
Audrey is young and energetic, daring to create a conversation, she smiled: "The two play with their own characteristics, and I think Jason may surpass Iverson in the future, he is the player who has made the most three-pointers in the NBA this season, which is an ability that Iverson does not have." And one thing I'm sure of is that he has a good chance of getting a championship ring before Iverson. ”
The ratings of this show are not low, and many fans immediately discuss it on the Internet after watching it.
Of course, there are many people who support Iverson, but there are also a few people who support Guo Xu.
Some fans will look at the scoring efficiency and shooting percentage of the players, they don't believe that Iverson can easily beat Guo Xu, and there is only that one game at present, and Iverson can't watch the low hitting rate in the first game.
The influence of Guo Xu's war book began to ferment, and he became a world-renowned figure. ()
