Chapter 662 [You say he can't do it, you can do it, you can do it!] 】
After the game, a New Orleans reporter who looked at Guo Xu unpleasantly provoked a controversial topic, he felt that Guo Xu did not work hard in defense and deliberately swiped data to bully rookies.
As a Hornets fan, he is afraid that Guo Xu's style of play will affect Paul's mentality, which will affect his future development, and Paul is now the hope of the Hornets.
"It's no secret that scoring high against a strong team is a better indication of a star's ability, and most of your high scores this season have been against the underdogs, so how do you explain that when you play against the strong teams, how do you explain that?"
Guo Xu didn't think about it, and said with a smile: "A tough life doesn't need to be explained. Barkley often says that I brush the data, and you're not the first person to see it. You're right, I did play the weaker teams with better stats because they defended poorly. In order to be able to play a little longer, I also like to be lazy in defense when I play the weak team, that's it, do you still have questions? ”
"Uh......" The white reporter was speechless, Guo Xu admitted very happily, he didn't know how to answer.
The reporter next to him asked: "Aren't you afraid of affecting the team's morale and locker room harmony by doing this?" ”
"My teammates have a good temper, they didn't even think of joining forces to beat me up. You know, at home, Megan calls me 'Guo Bufang'. Guo Xu smiled and pointed to the two male reporters who asked questions. Do you have any resentment against me? If you have any ideas, you might as well let them hear about them, but I'm afraid I won't be able to meet your request. ”
The two local reporters were very red and couldn't say anything, and some reporters from other media pointed their cameras directly at them, thinking that this was big news.
What can they think? is nothing more than hoping that Guo Xu will not admit to swiping data, and then list his data in two black sentences when reporting on the game, saying that he is a hypocrite and so on.
This is the usual routine of the media, Guo Xu saw a lot when he was a fan in his previous life, first made a fake fall highlight for James, and then asked James if he faked a fall. Let's take a look at the video of a Thunder teammate dodging rebounds, and then ask Westbrook if he brushes up on the data for a triple-double.
Those two people have always refused to admit it, but Guo Xu is not the kind of hypocritical person, there are few players in the history of the NBA who are more real than him, I am very proud, whatever you say.
After being silent for 10 seconds, Guo Xu smiled and said, "Others ask questions." It's funny, they look like they've been bullied by me, and it's clear that they're questioning me. ”
There was a burst of laughter in the room, and the two colleagues were really funny.
Recently, almost no reporters questioned Guo Xu at the press conference, the Suns have won 10 consecutive victories by relying on the remnants, Guo Xu is still the most popular star, with countless fans as the backing, and now questioning him is purely uncomfortable for himself.
Excellent reporters are on both sides of the wall, once Guo Xu's data declines and his performance plummets, that is the time for them to fall into the ground, whether it is a sports reporter or an entertainment reporter, they are good at doing this, and many celebrities are driven crazy by them in this way.
The next topic was led to entertainment, and many people asked him how he was doing.
Guo Xu said that there was a lot of pressure, there were too many competitions, the schedule was very tight, and there was very little time to practice singing, so he could only find time to practice. But he'll try to play it well and won't mess it up. The crew was assisted by professional people, and Wilson was from Broadway, and he was familiar with all the processes. This can attract a lot of attention again.
Guo Xu also gave rookie point guard Chris Paul a high rating. "He's very promising, very promising, and I'm optimistic that he will become an All-Star in the future, all he needs is to gain experience and believe that in the future our matchups will be more intense and more interesting."
After the press conference, there was another heated discussion among online fans.
Some people questioned Guo Xu's professional attitude, and some Guo Mi thought he was so cool, and put a big move - "You said he couldn't do it, you can do it!" ”
"Jason said that the score is brushed, and other people have the ability to brush it, so why can't they brush it? Iverson and Kobe Bryant are the stars closest to his stats, and they can't even enter the playoffs with their team records, so they're the ones who brushed up, right? ”
"I want to ask a question, which team is not an underdog compared to the Suns? The remnants of the Suns have the first record, and when the two All-Stars come back, is it fair for Jason Guo to retire directly to other teams. ”
"Jason's stats for playing strong teams are generally compared to himself, and it is still the best compared to others."
After reading the news, President David Stern was helpless.
He hopes that the competition in the NBA will be fiercer, he doesn't want to see a dominant family at all, Guo Xu can win with the remnants of the Suns, what competition is there next? It is estimated that everyone is optimistic about the Suns winning the championship next season, and they do have the ability to win the championship. What about the other teams? Collective swinging?
On December 14, the Suns defeated the Mavericks 113-97 away for 11 consecutive wins, and those who said that Guo Xu brushed the data were dumbfounded again.
In this game, Guo Xu didn't shoot much, and his shooting rate was super high, with 11 of 15 shots, 5 of 8 three-pointers, 5 of 6 free throws, and 32 points, 5 rebounds, 18 assists and 4 steals.
The man with the most shots was Josh Howard, who shot 17-of-30, 1-of-3 from three-point range and 7-of-8 from the free-throw line, finishing with a career-high 42 points, six rebounds and two assists.
The Mavericks' wing defense is weak, even weaker than Guo Xu's previous life, with one less Howard and one more Joey Graham. The Mavericks are still out of lineup for this game, and Stackhouse is out due to injury.
Guo Xu launched a run-and-bomb counterattack and passed a lot of balls to Howard, the advantage of "Ugly Brother" is obvious, the success rate of single-handedly Graham and Daniels is very high, and the second leader of the Mavericks in the previous life has become their bitter master.
Now the black cauldron can't spray Guo Xu to play alone and brush the data, and the lone person will let the third-grade teammates shoot 30 balls? Bogut, as the top pick, has not made 20 shots in a single game for the Lakers. The 76ers' first-round rookie Danny Granger was even worse, completely defending blue-collar from the outside, barely catching the ball.
No matter how black Guo Xu is, unless it is said that Howard, who almost fell to the second round in the draft, is the "real thigh" of the Suns.
Howard thanked Guo Xu in the locker room, and he has already indicated that he wants to play on a weak team, wants to try to get more balls, and is working hard to get a big contract next season.
This is Howard whom Guo Xu took the initiative to ask, and some of the words made it clear that everyone was comfortable. Guo Xu promised to help Howard break out a few games at the right time, let him enter the field of vision of some teams, and when the opponent's wing defense was strong, Howard reduced his shots, focused most of his energy on the defensive end, and did his best to help the team win.
Howard is self-aware, and he is satisfied to be the second scorer of the Suns, and he does not expect to steal the ball with Guo Xu. He can't really let him be the boss of the Suns, but he can score, and his ability to break through the ball is far worse than Guo Xu.
Howard will definitely be traded after the end of this season, and the specific management will discuss after the season, and now the Suns can't do without Howard, and they need him to help Guo Xu share the pressure on the offensive end.
On the 16th, the Suns defeated the weak Hornets 111-88 at home, and won it again by playing, which was the longest 12-game winning streak of the season.
The Hornets have a lot of weaknesses, not only the poor interior lineup, but also the three-point shooting point of JR Smith on the outside, and coach Scott is unwilling to give JR playing time, and the two have conflicts.
JR is often counted down by Scott, playing without executing tactics, not cooperating with training, not being motivated, and living a disorderly life. He wasn't wronged, he was a man who hung out in nightclubs all day and had a tattoo that read "In Love ith My Money".
Paul's start to life was more difficult than in his previous life......
