Back at Phoenix's home court, Guo Xu received the MVP trophy from President David Stern before the start of Game 3 and gave a speech on the spot.

"I want to thank my parents, they are the main reason why I am here. A lot of people used to think I wasn't tall enough, but I'm glad I'm standing tall now. ”

The fans applauded vigorously. Since Iverson did not win the MVP in 2001, Guo Xu not only set a record for the youngest MVP, but also the shortest and lightest MVP winner in NBA history.

Even if he retires tomorrow, he will already be an NBA legend.

"I want to thank my teammates, I wouldn't have been able to win this award without your support. We are a family, and I have spent more time with you than with my loved ones. ”

"I would like to thank the coaching staff, management, trainers, team doctors, and fans who have always supported the Suns......"

Guo Xu said all the clichés, and he couldn't be humorous. What he wants to thank most is actually the "time loop", he hasn't been in the loop since 2001, and it's just two experiences that have allowed him to have everything he has now.

After Stern presented the award, he stood aside and watched Guo Xu quietly, and he felt incredible like many fans.

In just three seasons, Guo Xu has done what many players can't do in their lifetimes, two championships and an MVP, locked a spot in the Hall of Fame, and his career started more brightly than Duncan's first three seasons.

After the start of the game, the Sun was like a rainbow, and Guo Xu led the team to lead all the time, winning 123-102 and scoring 2-1 in total.

Guo Xu hit a big double-double of 30 points and 16 assists, and used blocking and breaking through again and again, scoring himself or assisting teammates.

The fourth game continued to be played in Phoenix, and the Mavericks, who lost their home court advantage and fell behind 1-2, strengthened the confrontation, Nahura's fierce foul on Marion almost caused a conflict, and Van Exel also pulled Guo Xu and was awarded two free throws when he was defending the counterattack.

The Mavericks' method of dealing with Guo Xu is to foul fiercely, and when the player hits, he not only has to knock the ball off, but also make him feel painful and afraid, so as to interrupt his shooting touch.

This trick is really effective for interrupting the shooting touch, but Guo Xu can break through in addition to shooting, and when he goes head-to-head with a guard, the defender can't stop him from shooting if he is slower, and it is difficult for the hitter to do it.

Joe Johnson went crazy this time, played low back, and ensured a high shooting percentage from the outside three-point line, cutting a career-high 33 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists in his playoff career, helping the team win 105 and achieve match points.

Guo Xu has 18 points and 13 assists, even if he feels average, he can lead the whole team and make the offense very smooth.

After the win, Guo Xu's popularity continued to grow, and many fans supported the Suns to win the championship this season, hoping that Guo Xu would have the last laugh. Because it was a miracle, his play can also be called individual heroism, but he scored less and assisted his teammates.

No one said he hugged his thighs, who is the thighs in the sun? Marion and Smalls? How can these two people be virtuous?

In the fifth game, the Mavericks won at home, and the Suns role players felt abnormal again, with a score of 92-110.

Guo Xu didn't shoot much in this game, and he was frequently trapped, and his teammates had a lot of easy singles and empty shots that he didn't grasp.

Nelson Sr. used Van Exel to play double guard, Guo Xu passed a lot of balls to Joe Johnson and Marion, and the Suns won if they played well in a misplaced position, but unfortunately both of them were too iron.

At the press conference, Guo Xu's mentality was still very relaxed, and he did not blame his teammates for wasting opportunities. The odds of the Mavericks wanting to turn the tables are too low, in the history of the NBA, there have never been two 1-3 turnovers in a single season, after the Magic was overturned 1-3 by the Pistons in the first round.

Unsurprisingly, the Mavericks players did not perform well in Game 6 and were on the verge of elimination, and the pressure was too great.

Nowitzki played 47 minutes and finished with 21 points, 12 rebounds, three assists and three steals on 5-of-14 shooting, 0-of-3 three-pointers and 11-of-12 free throws.

The Suns interior players are good defensively and have gained some experience. In the regular season, Small, Nene and Haslem didn't know how to interrupt the opponent's shooting touch with a hard foul on the defensive end, and they learned to play two rounds in the playoffs, which made them tougher.

The inner is rough, not only interrupting the feel, but almost breaking Nowitzki's hand. Nowitzki turned around and broke through at the bottom line, and he even dribbled the ball and covered it.

The Mavericks' defensive action was also very big, Van Exel couldn't prevent Guo Xu, and stumbled and hit his shoulder during a counterattack, pushing Guo Xu out of the sideline and being whistled for a malicious foul.

If other players don't get hurt if they don't do it well, Guo Xu is a parkour master, he reacts quickly after losing his center of gravity, throws the ball and quickly shrinks in the air, and hits two rolling forces after landing, unharmed, but it hurts a little when he falls when he lands.

This is obviously an off-the-board move that the Mavericks players came up with, and it didn't work. Van Exel was then booed by the home fans as soon as he got the ball, and he had a poor second half.

Nene and Xiaosi hit the basket again and again, and Lafrentz left the court with 6 fouls in the final quarter, and the Mavericks' defense in the restricted area was weak and unable to return to the sky.

At 115-99 in the end, the Suns eliminated the Mavericks 4-2 to reach the Western Conference Finals.

The Mavericks players were all depressed when they returned to the locker room, especially Nash couldn't prevent Guo Xu, who was directly responsible for the loss.

At this time, Mavericks owner Cuban had already seen Nash very unpleasantly, and secretly decided not to renew Nash's contract after it expired in 2004. He felt that if the Mavericks wanted to win the championship, they had to have a good defensive point guard and center.

Many people say that Guo Xu's defense is poor, but it is not difficult to find that Guo Xu's defensive ability is much stronger than Nash's, and it is almost impossible for the guard to pass him in terms of breaking through the defensive frame, so he can only shoot at him.

Guo Xu chipped a game-high 35 points and 8 assists, and limited Van Exel on the defensive end, allowing him to only have 10 points and 3 assists, shooting 33.3%.

In the game that ended yesterday, the Spurs eliminated the Kings 4-2 to advance to the Western Conference Finals, and reporters asked Guo Xu to talk about his thoughts and predict the next round of matchups.

Guo Xu said: "I am confident that I will lead the team to win, both sides have a chance to advance, and we and the Spurs won two games each in the regular season. ”

The reporter asked: "The Suns are the youngest team, what do you think is the key to reaching the Western Conference finals in the first year of rebuilding?" ”

"It's just relying on a momentum, in fact, the Spurs are also a team of young players, Duncan is 26 years old this year and is at his peak, Jackson, Parker, Ginobili are not very old, they are the key to the Spurs to win, veterans provide experience, and we also have veterans in the team."

The Spurs do have several established veterans who have played very little playoff minutes, with Steve Smith, Steve Kerr, Kevin Willis, and Danny Ferry all on the fringe, playing a few minutes in each rotation to complete the task.

Guo Xu feels that the odds of winning are not low, because the Spurs do not have many rotation players in the playoffs, and their offensive power is average, and they rely on defense to win.

Especially the lack of substitutes on the Spurs inside, all relying on the twin towers, David Robinson has only played 24 minutes at present, with an average of 8+7 data per game, and he has long been unable to be called a star.

Kevin Willis off the bench was a super ironman because he was one of the representatives of the 1984 Diamond Generation, and was drafted by the Hawks at No. 11 in the first round in '84. No matter how good his form is, he is a 41-year-old veteran, how can he be able to guard against the beasts like Xiao Si and Nenei?

As long as the players play at their due level and combine inside and outside, Guo Xu believes that the Sun can create miracles this year!
