Chapter 811 [Eight-Person Transaction, Run-and-Bomb Battle]

On Feb. 1, the Suns host the Hawks.

The Warriors and Hawks previously had a big trade involving eight people. The Hawks sent Al Harrington, Childries, Jasco Vishuus, and Josh Powell to the Warriors' Troy Murphy, Keith McRiod, Michael Petrus, and Epic Diogu.

The deal was seen as a win-win situation by the media, and the Hawks' failure to make the Finals in the East was directly related to Harrington's poor ability to control rebounds, and he averaged only seven rebounds per game at his peak.

THE 206CM TALL HARRINGTON PLAYED SMALL FORWARD WHEN HE FIRST ENTERED THE LEAGUE, AND LATER PLAYED AS A POWER FORWARD, AND ALSO PLAYED A CAMEO ROLE AS A CENTER WHEN THE HAWKS PLAYED SMALL BALL TACTICS. It's nice to say he's a jack-of-all-trades, but in fact he has a big problem defending the box when he plays as a central striker.

The Hawks have a good record in the East, because the East lacks a star interior who is good at strong offense, and if they play in the West, it will be difficult for the Hawks' roster to break through the first round of the playoffs.

HAWKS MANAGEMENT BELIEVES THAT MURPHY, WHO IS 211CM TALL AND WEIGHS 110 KG, CAN STRENGTHEN THE TEAM'S PROTECTION OF REBOUNDING BALLS IN THE BACKCOURT AND BETTER LAUNCH COUNTERATTACKS WITH A PASS. He can also play with Nash in positional battles, and his body is better than Harrington's.

Childis was sent away because of an awkward position in the team, as he could not compete with Josh Smith and Boris Dior as a striker, and his offensive ability was inferior to Jamal Crawford.

The Hawks coaching staff didn't think Childis had much potential, and his shooting stance could be described as miserable, lifting the ball straight over his waist and pushing it out with both hands. Perhaps he himself is aware of the ugliness of his shooting, which almost always ends the offense with a breakaway, and has taken 72% of his shots from the basket this season.

A big man with a height of 203CM and outstanding speed and bounce, he plays by breaking through and lacks the ability to break through, just think about it and know what a painful style this is.

What the Hawks need most is a three-point shooting point, and after considering it, they traded back to swingman Petrus, who has recently returned from injury and has not been reused in the Warriors. Rolden and Kobe Bryant play more than 35 minutes per game, and he also has to compete with Belinelli and Azubuke for playing time.

The Warriors are back in the game and ready to charge for the playoffs.

Bryant was willing to join the Warriors in the summer because he felt that the Warriors' roster had great potential and could compete for a championship, and the team would not be able to mess up this season.

Harrington has been the leading scorer for the Hawks in recent years; Lithuanian star Jascovy Hughes, who entered the NBA out of the draft, is known as the "king of Europe", and as Nash's backup, he can also contribute 7.4 points per game; Childis's pick is higher than that of Rolle Dundu, and his athletic talent is amazing; and even Powell, who is an add-on, has championship experience and has a shot.

Commies all firmly believe that the Warriors will rise, even if they don't rise this season, there is no suspense next season, there are too many potential new stars.

The only bad thing is that although the Warriors management has long wanted to trade Murphy, there are still many Kohei who believe that Kobe Bryant forced out Murphy, who has a bad relationship with him.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Kobe Bryant was often misunderstood.

For example, O'Neal, who had a conflict with him, was traded to the Heat, and the book said that Kobe's unteachable "Zen master" Jackson resigned, and Malone, who wanted to play in the Lakers for another year, retired, and many people said that it was because of Kobe, and he carried the black pot for the Lakers management for several years without saying a word.

In fact, these have nothing to do with Kobe, he jumped out of the contract in 2004 without the meaning of forcing the palace, and the management does not want to renew the old "big shark". The conflict between him and O'Neal is not because of the ball, but because O'Neal obviously did it, but he did not support him in the Eagle County incident. As for the interview with Ma Long, he sincerely apologized, but Ma Long himself did not want to come back.

In July 2007, Kobe Bryant forced the palace management to ask for a trade and scolded the boss for being stupid, all because the Green Army formed a Big Three in August, which made him feel pressured. He later used his trade veto to refuse to go to the Pistons because Rohr Deng gave up on joining the Bulls as a sign of loyalty, and it was "Zen Master" Jackson who hinted at him doing so.

As for why Jackson hinted at Kobe Bryant forcing the palace and scolding old Bass and Kupchak? What's in it for Jackson? The person in question, Jackson, didn't know, but Comy knew that it must be the case, it was too obvious, as can be seen from Jackson's words later. (Jackson: What the hell did I say?) )

In short, Kobe's controversies are obviously someone else's fault, but no one understands him except Comi, which is really infuriating. It's a pity that no matter how Commery enumerates the facts, it's useless to scold those who are brain-dead.

Murphy started the night's game with the Hawks, along with Nash, Petrus, Dio and Smith.

Crawford continued to be the sixth man, playing the starting No. 2 with poor defense and free shots for six minutes off the bench in the second quarter.

In the Warriors, Petrus can only be a substitute, and he scored 15 points in the first game of joining the Hawks, his skills are very comprehensive, he has the ability to attack with the ball, and he can also catch the ball and shoot three-pointers, nicknamed "French Jordan".

Since there are also "French Magic", "Canadian Guo Xu", and "Poor Man's Version James" in the team, this lineup looks terrifying enough, but the Hawks' record this year is only fourth in the East, so they are in a hurry to trade.

The Suns won't make any trades in the mid-term, and fringe men Gortat and Shamond Williams have never played yet.

Suns starting five: Guo Xu, Roy, Anthony Parker, Tim Thomas, Stoudamire.

The Hawks attacked first and gave the Suns a dismount in the opening game. The player pulled away and played the offensive position, and Nash assisted Murphy twice in a row to hit a three-pointer from the perimeter.

This style of play is simple and effective, Xiao Si's defensive position is close to the penalty area, and Guo Xu's height cannot interfere with the big man's shooting once it is misplaced.

Murphy's style is suitable for partnering with Nash, and he is blessed when he attacks. In Guo Xu's previous life, Channing Frye's partner Nash, who was about to be eliminated by the NBA, was also like a fish in water, and Murphy's rebounding ability was much better than Fry's.

Murphy's overall 46% shooting percentage is not low, and on the surface he is an interior player, but in fact he has been shooting from the outside, and is one of the best shooting big men in the league. His shots from the basket account for only 19% of the total offense, which is quite bizarre.

What's even more amazing is that such a seemingly soft guy was the only white man in the top 5 rebounding rankings last season.

However, Murphy can only play on the offensive end, and he is really average on the defensive end, playing as a big forward to make a living, and a cameo as a center is a black hole.

It's not that Murphy doesn't work hard, but he has limited physical fitness, his movement speed and bounce are average, and his peak average of 0.6 blocks per game says it all, and he rarely jumps when he interferes with shots. His style is okay to defend against the blue collar inside, how can he prevent Xiao Si?

Guo Xu began to block and dismantle the offense, attracting the Eagles to change the defense inside and then giving the ball to Xiao Si who cut the air again and again, allowing him to attack the basket, and overtook the score after a while.

Murphy has one head and two big, and Guo Xu will break through if he changes his guard a little slower. He defended it out, and Xiao Si attacked the eagles and couldn't hold the penalty area. Smith is better at being a big forward because of his mobility, his ability to help defend blocks, and his average performance in defending and interfering with the basket is average.

Smith couldn't get close to the basket because Smalls attracted the ball and it was an opportunity, and Thomas hit two three-pointers in the first quarter.

In the first half, there was not much difference between the two sides, and the game was still suspenseful. In the third quarter, Guo Xu suddenly became powerful, sent assists in a row, and scored 5 points in a row, playing a wave of 14-2 to widen the difference to 20 points......
