The Trail Blazers point guard Stoudmayer continues to rest, and the other two cores are on the court early, while the Lakers are still resting on the OK side, so if they continue to play, the home team will definitely be at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength.

As the game continued, Anthony took the half-court pass to Rasheed Wallace, ran to the left baseline, and then ran to the bottom right corner to play an off-ball screen with Kemp.

Suddenly, a Roshan Great Demon King stood in front of him, and Guo Xu couldn't quickly bypass the chase even if he was super flexible. Anthony received the ball in the bottom corner of the right side and made a three-point jumper, Guo Xu was slow to defend and the ball went in. 37 to 29.

Kemp was not as happy as Guo Xu, and continued to block and dismantle, but it became Rashid who changed his defense.

Guo Xu didn't break through with the ball, and at this time, Ryder ran from the bottom line, running from the left to the bottom corner of the right, and Grant blocked Smith.

Standing near the camp penalty area, he didn't have the slightest idea of changing his defense. Guo Xu's eyes were quick, and he hit the ground and passed the ball to Ryder, who also had a basket, and adjusted his shot after receiving the ball, and returned a three-point vacancy.

40-29, Guo Xu sent an assist.

Camp's defensive black hole attributes are undoubted, if he doesn't change defenses, his outside teammates have to chase after him, and it is difficult to get around in the face of the cover master Grant. This is because Kemp stands with the opponent's inside line, and will also block his own people, covering too much of the penalty area.

On the offensive end, Kemp finally made a play, first playing with Wells and then cutting through the middle to receive a pass from Wells and squeeze Foster out for a layup. 40 to 31.

His goal was not praised, but ridiculed by the commentators.

Woodson smiled and bent over: "Camp really can't jump now, this time he jumped about 5CM, it looks like he's tiptoeing." ”

The Lakers attacked, Guo Xu repeated his old tricks, attracted Rashid to defend and passed to Ryder on the bottom line, who received the ball and shook it for a while, changed direction to Smith, who was chasing the defense, and made a 45-degree one-step pull-up jump shot and scored on the board. 42 to 31.

Kemp didn't change the defense, and Ryder scored easily alone, but Guo Xu preferred that his teammates could shoot when he received the ball, otherwise it would not be counted as an assist, and he complained to Ryder in his heart.

The Trail Blazers attacked, Wells and Kemp blocked and dismantled again, this time Kemp threw and hit the iron, and the rebound was grabbed by Grant and passed to Guo Xu in a straight line. Guo Xu quickly advanced to the front on the left side and gave it to George in the middle.

George is 203cm tall and weighs 106 kilograms, LeBron James had this physique when he first entered the league, and he countered against Smith, who was 201cm tall and weighed only 91 kilograms.

Smith's confrontation has always been a weakness, the offensive end is dodging and playing, George took the ball and relied on him to force a layup, Smith didn't get stuck in position, didn't jump, and didn't foul.

44-31, Guo Xu's second assist.

The Lakers bench was very lively, not only the players were excited, but the coaching staff was surprised, Guo Xu played like an All-Star this time.

The Trail Blazers offense was launched from the side, Smith and Rashid formed a mismatch after blocking and dismantling, Rashid singled George in the low post, and turned around with the ball in a big stride, causing a foul on Rashid, and hit both free throws. 44 to 33.

During the dead-ball period, the Trail Blazers replaced Kemp for Davis, and Dunleavy finally couldn't stand Kemp's poor defense. The Lakers also made three substitutions, the OK combination came on together, Fox replaced George, and the team was going to play a triangle offense.

The second half was O'Neal's "show time", as he turned low and threw in the field to score, knocking away his opponent's hands and dunking. Camp is not there, and the Trail Blazers' interior defense can't hold O'Neal.

Guo Xu's task became very simple, dribbling the ball over half the court, waiting outside the three-point line, and watching the fat man's performance up close.

Not only Guo Xu, but Kobe Bryant had to follow the switchback. The Trail Blazers have weaknesses on the inside, and if they don't play like that, they won't be a team.

Guo Xu focused on the defensive end and guarded against Stadamyer. "Little Flying Squirrel" played very uncomfortable, the speed advantage was not obvious, Guo Xu could only pass the ball as soon as he was close, and he could play strongly in the case of interference, and the hit rate could not be high.

On the offensive end, Guo Xu didn't completely play soy sauce, 1 minute and 15 seconds, Grant hit an iron shot, O'Neal grabbed the rebound in the front court, attracted the bag and divided the ball out of the periphery to Guo Xu.

Stadamier ran early under the fast attack, Guo Xu received the ball at 70 degrees on the right side and shot easily, and hit another three-pointer in the vacant position.

At halftime, the Lakers led 61-44.

Guo Xu played the whole second quarter, playing a total of 16 minutes, shooting 7 of 7, 5 of 5 three-pointers, cutting 19 points and 2 assists, the second most points in the game, second only to teammate O'Neal.

O'Neal scored 24 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 block in the half, completely dominating the restricted area.

Bryant was plagued by fouls and committed three fouls in the half, playing only 13 minutes, shooting 2-of-5 from the field, adding free throws to get five points and two assists, and no rebounds.

Guo Xu felt that he was going to explode this time, and his hand was too smooth, so Jackson let him sit on the bench for a whole quarter in the second half.

He didn't understand what the "Zen Master" thought, the Lakers sent the opening starters, and they didn't change people when they played in a mess.

O'Neal encountered a defense around the front, was not good at receiving the ball, and was finally caught again, and he only scored 6 points and 4 rebounds in this quarter.

Kobe Bryant was in a slump, shooting iron, making mistakes, only 2 of 6 shots, scoring 4 points, no rebounds and no assists, but having 4 turnovers.

As a role player, Harper followed back and forth and missed a basket once in the full quarter; Fox missed the basket on all four shots; "Cobra" Grant only had a two-minute break in the first quarter, and then played again in the third quarter, shooting 1 of 2 and 1 of 2 free throws, scoring 3 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist.

The Lakers shot 6-of-19 from the field in the first quarter, shooting 31.6 percent, 0-of-3 from three-point range, 2-of-6 from the free-throw line, scoring just 14 points and committing as many as six turnovers.

Woodson analyzed that Jackson wanted to strengthen the defense and continue to defend to win the game, the Trail Blazers' 23-point offense in a single quarter was not good, but the Lakers' offense was even worse.

The margin narrowed to single digits, and the Lakers led 75-67.

Jackson seemed to be asleep on the sidelines, not making substitutions, not calling a timeout, and letting the players adjust themselves on the court.

Guo Xu was very helpless, his hands were so hot, if he was another coach, he would let him continue to play in the second half, so as not to lose his hand. "Zen Master" seems to care more about the state of the OK combination, even if Kobe Bryant has a bad hand, he will be left on the court.

Jackson's brain circuitry is really different from other coaches, he likes to put more responsibility on his stars and find his rhythm on his own, which is how superstars are trained. What's it called a pause? The worse the play, the more you don't pause, and you get back on the field.

If a star doesn't play well, they will be replaced immediately, and if they do it too many times, their confidence will be lost, and they will even rely on the coach's tactical adjustments. Players are often asked to develop the habit of adjusting on their own, although some games will be difficult to win or even lose, but when entering the playoffs "fight bayonets", the mentality of Lakers players will be much stronger.

In Guo Xu's previous life, the team led by Jackson often staged wonderful stunts, and there were always players with big hearts who stood up and created classic games, which was not acceptable.

As for Guo Xu, Jackson still wants to sharpen his temperament.

During the break, he called Guo Xu to his side and whispered: "I can let you play in the last quarter, but you must be restrained, and don't dance on the court anymore if you play well, this will arouse the anger of the opponent." Do you think 'Portland Jail' is a joke? I don't want to see any of you get hurt in the first fight. ”

"Uh...... I was wrong. Guo Xu immediately figured out why he sat on the bench for the whole session.
