Chapter 444 [Sun VS Maverick, Santa Nene]
That night, the Suns beat the Lakers 113-100 to make it two wins in a row.
Guo Xu played 41 minutes, shooting 12-of-23, 4-of-9 three-pointers, 7-of-8 free throws, and scored 35 points, 6 rebounds, 11 assists and 2 steals. He led the team to score five in double figures and three to score 20+.
Blue-collar center Diop, who had only 2 points and 5 rebounds, played 18 minutes and became a big surprise for the Suns. Although he scored all by picking up leaks, he could defend O'Neill alone in the low post, and would not let the "big shark" easily wreak havoc in the penalty area, and he was also very resolute when he fouled.
The stars of the two teams soared, Kobe Bryant played 39 minutes, 13 of 27 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, 2 of 3 free throws, and got a quasi-triple-double of 29 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists.
O'Neal played 36 minutes, shooting 5-of-10 from the field and 8-of-14 from the free-throw line to finish with 18 points, 18 rebounds and four assists.
Malone and Payton scored double-doubles, and the other role players performed averagely, unable to shoot a few baskets at all, and couldn't receive passes. "Lakers F4" all need to hold the ball, and the Lakers coaching staff has not been able to solve the problem of insufficient basketball points.
O'Neal is currently averaging only 20 points per game, and Kobe Bryant's average has dropped to 24 points per game.
On the defensive end, the weakness of the Lakers' No. 4 position has always existed, Malone has problems defending as soon as he gets off the court, and Medvedenko and Grant are too slow, allowing the guards to break through casually.
The defense and dismantling mainly rely on the 40-year-old veteran, and if he continues to fight like this, Malone is not far from injury.
After the game, the media reported that the game was relatively dull, and did not praise Guo Xu again.
30+10 This kind of data can be praised by a point guard, and everyone doesn't think it's news when it happens to Guo Xu, because he played the Clippers too fiercely, the average data per game has increased to 32.3 points and 11.4 assists, which is just an average data.
Back at home, the Suns avenged the SuperSonics 116-91 back-to-back.
Opposite Guo Xu, the strength of supersonic rookie point guard Luke Redno is completely insufficient, he has been broken through again and again, and he can't prevent Xiao Sikong from cutting after blocking.
Guo Xu scored 34 points, 4 rebounds, 12 assists and 3 steals, and Lidno played 20 minutes without scoring a point on 0-of-5 shooting, sending two assists, and couldn't get rid of Guo Xu's defense at all.
Redno has mid-to-long-range shooting ability, is very average at speed, and is a point guard who controls the rhythm. His athleticism is in the middle and lower reaches of the NBA, and Guo Xu can abuse him based on his physical fitness alone.
Substitute Antonio Daniels is a 193CM heavy guard who was abused by rookie Guo Xu when he was still playing for the Spurs.
The supersonic pick-and-roll tactics are powerless, relying mainly on Ray Allen and Lewis to score. STARTING CENTER JEROME JAMES, WHO IS 213CM TALL AND WEIGHS 130 KILOGRAMS, IS SLIGHTLY STRONGER IN ATTACK THAN DIOP, AND THE OPPONENT CASUALLY LETS HIM GO AFTER COVERING ON THE PERIMETER.
After this game, the SuperSonics were only 12th in the West, and fans felt that the Suns were embarrassed to lose to them before.
After a day off, this year's NBA highlight will be staged, and on the 25th, the Suns will face the Mavericks at home in the Christmas game.
Supposedly, the Suns were eliminated by the Spurs in the Western Conference last season, which was even more gimmicky, but the league arranged for the defending champions to take a break on Christmas.
Offensive teams are more likely to attract fans, boost ratings, and put on classic games.
The Mavericks started with a poor 15-12 record, but they are averaging 107.8 points per game and are currently second in the league in attack power behind the Suns, who are averaging 116.1 points per game.
Looking at the Spurs again, the overall statistics are simply miserable, averaging 91.5 points per game and conceding 84.3 points, and the offensive rhythm is only faster than the Pistons in the East, relying on defense to win. The Spurs only have three players averaging double-doubles per game, and watching them play is torture, trying to use up 24 seconds per game.
There are also two more fights.
Magic VS Cavaliers, Magic's record is the lowest in the league, but fans want to see Maddie's performance, it doesn't matter if you can't win, it's enough for the stars to play beautifully. That's why the Cavaliers are involved in the Christmas game, and their record is outside the playoffs, but the core is the league's much-loved LeBron James.
As soon as he entered the league, he was called the "Little Emperor", which is enough to prove James's domineering side leakage, and he also signed a sky-high contract with Nike, which exceeded all outside stars without endorsement fees. Looking at Nike's face, the league has to praise him.
Lakers VS Rockets, the focus of the publicity is the "Yao Shark Showdown", and the showdown between Kobe Bryant and Francis has lacked highlights.
Francis is a person who is more affected by Guo Xu's butterfly effect, he has been selected for one less All-Star Game, and he has never been a Western Star starter. His stats and popularity have declined seriously this season, and he is estimated to only be an All-Star once in his life.
Guo Xu also has to work overtime on important holidays, and Megan is a little depressed about this, she wants to spend Christmas with Guo Xu, but it is not too early for him to go home after the game.
Guo Xu's parents returned to East Lansing to spend Christmas with his grandfather and grandmother, and his sister Christy Fox was going to Port St. Lucie to celebrate the holiday with her parents.
The decoration, recruitment, and training of the pizza restaurant have come to an end, and it is only waiting for the official opening on December 31, heralding a new year and a new beginning.
Guo Xu took out a ticket and handed it to Megan. "We can spend Christmas together, you just go to the home stadium and watch the game."
"Aren't you afraid that the relationship will be exposed? There will definitely be news tomorrow. ”
"It won't be exposed, I will say in an interview that you are an ordinary friend, I open my eyes and say nonsense Jason Guo is like this, what can reporters do with me?" Guo Xu kissed Megan and said with a smile: "In this way, the movie will definitely be more popular, and when you go to promote, more people will pay attention to you." ”
"......" Meghan often thinks that Guo Xu is quite insidious, and hyping up the movie at Christmas will kill two birds with one stone.
He had already agreed with the management that two trailers of the movie would be shown on the big screen before the players came out, and he would also sing live and interact with the fans, which was a special program for Christmas.
"Shall we go to the arena together?" Megan asked.
"I'll go first, if you go early, you'll have to wait a long time. Ryan (Haslem's girlfriend) also went to the game, and you sat together and had company. ”
The two of them ate something casually, arranged a plan, and Guo Xu went to the stadium first.
When he arrived at the door of the stadium, the tall and ugly Santa Claus suddenly "came to life" and scared Guo Xu.
When he arrived at the locker room, he asked and found out that it was an activity carried out by the management, so that Nei was hidden in the Santa Claus doll costume to interact with the fans and players. Someone shoots a video on the sidelines, which is shown on the big screen on the pitch before the players come out as a hilarious tidbit. One of them found a little girl actor who would kick Santa Claus in the crotch after pretending to be scared, and then Santa Claus knelt on the ground in pain.
Nene was very happy to be Santa Claus, and after going to the locker room, he chatted with his teammates very energetically, and Guo Xu suddenly remembered something he had forgotten.
This thing was "Santa Claus" in his previous life, you have been kicked out of cancer by a child, buddy!
In his previous life, Nene was found to have ** cancer in 2007 and was forced to stop playing, and when further examination was found to be more serious than expected, he finally not only removed the tumor, but also removed the right **. Later, Nene relied on his strong will, not only returned to the court, but also after being traded by the Nuggets to the Wizards, the statistics were higher than before. Of the 2002 rookies, he played the longest time in the league.
Guo Xu didn't know how to open his mouth about this, he had to go back and think about it, how to naturally let Nene do a full body physical examination.
Fortunately, there is still plenty of time now, and it is too early for Nene to check out the problem, and Guo Xu can propose that everyone go for a physical examination next season...... (https:)
