The game was broadcast live in the United States, and China's CCTV5 also broadcast live, after the Rockets were eliminated again, the team that Chinese fans wanted to see the most was the Suns.

The video of the Suns players entering the stadium was shown on the big screen of the stadium, which attracted many cheers from the fans at the scene.

Zhang reasonably commented: "This year's appearance of the sun is interesting, Guo Xu gave everyone high-end suits, with shirts and ties, it doesn't look like playing ball, but like a group of successful people attending a celebration banquet." ”

Xu Jicheng said with a smile: "Guo Xu also wears a pair of retro glasses, with a flat bottom and no degree, some people on the Internet commented that this decoration makes him childish and has more high-end taste." ”

To put it bluntly, it's a group of people who form a group to outfit B, but many people like this, looking at the tall and high-grade, and the team that enters the field in the same style of sportswear suddenly opens the grade.

President David Stern likes it the most, and that's what he wants to see as an NBA player, and the Suns are the champions right now. In this way, the NBA can develop better, sell more broadcast rights, and everyone's income will increase.

In Guo's previous life, the future proved that Stern's strategy was completely correct, and the NBA later surpassed football in terms of revenue, becoming the highest-paid league in the world.

The United States can afford to go to the stadium often, and people who buy merchandise like suits and gentlemen, and black people in the slums like hip-hop clothes. The league banned NBA players from wearing hip-hop clothing, and later even stipulated that they could only wear suits, not because hip-hop clothing damaged the image of the league, but because it hoped that the image of the league would attract more attention from the wealthy.

"I think this series is going to be more exciting, and the Grizzlies should be able to pose a little bit of a threat to the Suns, who have won the regular season three seasons in a row," Zhang said. ”

Xu Jicheng said: "It's normal for the Grizzlies to win a game, but it is unrealistic to eliminate the Suns, how to prevent Guo Xu is a problem that the Grizzlies must solve, and the one that won this year is actually not prevented, it is the Suns inside line and forwards who suffer." ”

At this time, the cameraman gave the camera to the sidelines, Megan Fox was watching the game in the front row, Guo Xu walked over and kissed her, showing affection in public.

Xu Jicheng began to gossip. "Before the game, Guo Xu was interviewed by our reporter and said that he was going to sing and make movies during the holidays, and it is estimated that he can't wait to take a holiday now."

Zhang Li said with a smile: "I heard that he is also planning to make a blockbuster, and he found a group of kung fu stars such as Jet Li, Keanu, and cousin, which is worth looking forward to." ”

Suns starters: Guo Xu, Joe Johnson, Marion, Haslem, Stoudamire.

Grizzlies starters: Jason Williams, James Posey, Mike Miller, Randolph, Gasol.

The Grizzlies' starters are not bad compared to any team, the only weakness is "White Chocolate" Williams, and now everyone understands that he is just an ordinary point guard, and after arriving at the Grizzlies, he doesn't play fancy passing, otherwise too many mistakes are not considered qualified starters.

After the change in style of play, Williams's popularity also declined rapidly, and for two consecutive years, the star vote could not be ranked in the top ten guards, and he could not get 100,000 votes, not even Marion.

Gasol won with a 230cm long-arm jump ball, and the game began.

Williams controlled the ball and Gasol blocked and dismantled in the middle, Haslem changed the defense and blocked the breakthrough route, and Guo Xu chased the defense in place. Williams split the ball high and Haslem quickly moved across to keep up with Gasol in the air.

Suns assistant coach Larry Drew arranged a targeted defense, the Grizzlies' blocking and pick-and-roll is very powerful, the guard can't break through and can still respond inside, once the blocking and pick-and-roll tactics are played, the two swingmen on the perimeter are also easier to play.

The Suns lost once in the regular season, and Haslem is the most suitable pick-and-roll, with speed and power.

Gasol was close to his teammates at the free-throw line, and he had a height advantage and was not strong, and passed to Miller, who was running on the side.

Marion immediately got close to him, but Miller didn't have a direct chance, and took a step with his back to turn to the right and passed to Randolph.

Xiao Si put a distance, Randolph probed the frame and shot at 50 degrees on the right side, Xiao Si stepped forward, did not jump and raised his hand to interfere, and the ball went in. 0 to 2.

didn't prevent it, but Xiao Si didn't jump around, and the coaching staff gave him a few applause, afraid that he would pounce too far and be passed by the opponent to score easily, or fly up directly to block.

Although Payton has only averaged 11.3 minutes per game since joining the Suns, his defensive experience has benefited the entire team and played the role of an assistant coach.

The Suns attacked, Xiao Si gave Joe Johnson off-ball cover on the side, and Guo Xu passed the ball over. Gasol changed the defense in time, Joe Johnson attracted the big man to protect the ball, and then Xiao Si helped Guo Xu block Williams in the corner position, and Guo Xu ran to the bottom right corner without the ball.

The Suns also occasionally played the Hawks' offensive routine, and after three seasons of running-in, the players became more and more tacit, and Joe Johnson immediately distributed the ball to the bottom right corner, and the Grizzlies changed the defense.

Miller chased Joe Johnson, and at this time it should have been Gasol to change Guo Xu, but he was too far away, and it was impossible to catch up when he turned around and saw Guo Xu get rid of it.

Guo Xu received the ball and got an open space, and hit a three-point jumper in the bottom corner. 3 to 2.

The Grizzlies attacked, and Williams broke through after blocking and was quickly caught up by Guo Xu, and there was no misalignment. He split the ball to the middle, and Gasol received the ball and made a high jumper.

Haslem, who switched guards and blocked the guard, immediately pounced and jumped to interfere with Gasol's shot, which could not be covered but could be scary, the ball bounced out of the frame, and Marion grabbed the rebound in the backcourt.

Guo Xu retreated to catch the ball and slowed down the rhythm, and the Grizzlies players were not slow to return to defense, even if Randolph's running ability was qualified, he just didn't like to jump.

Guo Xu and Xiao Si blocked and dismantled the left side, forming a weak side here, only Haslem was alone on the bottom line, and Joe Johnson and Marion ran to the right side.

The Suns' tactics seem simple, but they are actually very flexible, mainly based on Marion's position to create strong sides and weak sides, his running is more, the opponent is a little slower, Guo Xu sees that the pass is an empty cut layup.

Percy followed Marion, it doesn't matter, play slowly.

Haslem stood on the bottom line to attract Randolph's defense, Lan Fat is not good at helping defense, Guo Xu relied on covering the ball to get rid of Williams and brought it to 50 degrees, Gasol hurriedly changed the defense, if he didn't change, Guo Xu rushed up and hit the basket.

Williams also chose to chase defense, he is 185CM tall and weighs 82kg, and it must be a tragedy to switch to the inside air.

Guo Xu glanced at it with his peripheral vision, and passed the ball to the middle with one hand in the gap between the two, Xiao Si cut in the middle, received the ball and took two steps into the basket, half-turned and jumped with both feet, and took the ball with both hands in the air and folded his back to dunk the ball. 5 to 2.

Gasol turned slowly, Randolph didn't return to the basket to make up for the defense, and Xiao Si performed a wonderful dunk, which suddenly led to the home atmosphere and attracted crazy applause from the fans.

The Grizzlies attacked, passing a couple of open opportunities. The Suns, except for Guo Xu, are man-to-man, and the defense is infinitely changed, forcing Grizzlies players to play alone when they are defended. This trick is very effective, and it can prevent the outside three.

Randolph singled Smalls, leaned on his back and turned around twice to shoot wide, and the rebound was grabbed by Haslem.

The Suns attacked, Guo Xu and Xiao Si blocked and dismantled, and this time Williams chased and defended in place. Xiao Si stood high to attract the defense, Guo Xu opened the single on the weak side, dribbled the ball under the crotch to the right hand to change direction to the left, attracting Williams to move horizontally, he dribbled the ball to the right hand behind his back, and then shot in the retreat.

Williams is not a superman known for his physical fitness, he is of similar height, and his speed is slower than Guo Xu, and he can't block shots.

Guo Xu is very aware of this, the shooting rhythm is perfect, and the ball is hollow into the net. 7 to 2.
