Chapter 688 [Alternative Defenders, Caught Off-Guard]

Guo Xu rarely trash-talk on the court, and today he is ready to stimulate Parker in order to ensure victory. Parker's breakaway is important for the Spurs, and as long as he is limited to play, the Suns have a much better chance of winning.

In the first game, the Suns had to play with momentum, and statistics showed that the probability of the team winning the first game of the Western Conference finals finally advancing to the finals reached 78%.

Guo Xu attaches great importance to this year's championship, because the Suns have suffered from injuries, and as long as he leads the team to defend the title, the evaluation will be unprecedentedly high. On the contrary, if you lose this year, it doesn't make much sense to wait for Stadamyre and Marion to come back and win the championship next year. With two more stars on the team, he hasn't been able to build a dynasty with three consecutive championships.

This is the gap between heaven and hell, winning fans remember Guo Xu for a lifetime, and lose Guo Xu for a lifetime this season. Under this premise, he wants to win by any means.

Parker was in an open position, gritted his teeth and threw a three-pointer, Guo Xu stood on the spot, didn't even stretch his hand, but the ball hit the iron.

Three-point shooting hasn't been a regular weapon for Parker for years, averaging just two shots per game in his first four seasons in the league. He shot 27.6 percent from three-point range last year and basically didn't shoot three-pointers in the playoffs.

Many fans felt that this was Parker's weakness and suggested that he practice more three-pointers in the summer, but he said in an interview: "That's the result of my discussion with ** Vic. We have a lot of great pitchers around us, and I can penetrate and break through and create opportunities for everyone, which is even better. I agreed not to shoot any more threes and let someone else do. ”

This season, Parker turned his three-point shot into a mid-range jumper, making just 11 three-pointers in total for the entire season. He shot 54.8 percent overall and his true shooting percentage and free throw percentage were on the rise. It's no coincidence that he became an All-Star this season.

However, Guo Xu, a point guard who relies on breakthrough offense and does not shoot three-pointers, is not afraid, and he is the best at breaking through the face frame.

Parker is an alternative guard who relies heavily on breakouts, averaging 4.7 of 6.7 rebounds per game this season for a whopping 70.5 percent shooting, or 46.9 percent of his total shots. This is a terrifying statistic, you must know that the tough "Wolf King" Garnett only averages 4.1 baskets per game, which is 5 minutes more than Parker.

Parker's mid-range shooting is much worse, with an average shooting percentage of less than 40 percent, and he will be accurate in the future, but he still has to practice.

The Suns attacked, Guo Xu wanted the ball as soon as he passed half the court, and the Spurs swing people did not dare to easily let go of Bell and Blake, who could shoot three-pointers, to wrap up, and the interior players were not good to the three-point line, which was very uncomfortable.

Guo Xu singled out Parker one meter outside the three-point line, dribbled the ball to his left hand under his crotch, took a small step to the right, dribbled behind his right hand sharply and retreated, and shot three points in the middle.

Guo Xu also likes a small backlash when he shoots, this trick is the feeling of gambling, and it is difficult for the defender to block if he retreats slightly attracted by the feint, unless he is more than 10CM taller than him, and his arm span is excellent. Against players with a height of more than 195CM, Guo Xu will not shoot, and his speed will become the opponent's nightmare.

Parker is 188CM tall and weighs 84 kg, how to play against a person of this height, Guo Xu has experience in the first time loop, and he first practiced shooting with Martin Cliffs.

Parker's defense was in place, but he couldn't cover it, so he could only try to close his eyes, and the ball went in. 11 to 2.

Guo Xu made three three-pointers in the opening game, and the home fans cheered, and ** Vic took the lead in requesting a timeout.

After the player left the court, Vicky immediately counted Parker for not doing the defense he asked for before the game, and he arranged for Parker to try to disrupt Guo Xu's shooting rhythm as close as possible.

Parker was helpless but didn't dare to refute, how could it be so easy to be close to Guo Xu? He's very good on the dribble and he's more agile.

In Spurs games, it is not uncommon for Vicky to call Parker to him and scold him. Not only Parker, but he also often scolded Ginobili. Fortunately, the Spurs did not choose Guo Xu back then, and went to the Spurs with Guo Xu's loose personality, and he had to kill ** Vicky a hundred times in the time loop, and the two could not coexist at all.

Vicky hates people like Guo Xu who like to be in the limelight, and he will never allow players to make cameo appearances in movies, let alone starring in movies and musicals.

Guo Xu feels that ** Vicky is suitable for coaching players rather than superstars, he likes to destroy the personality of players, and does not allow players to do everything on the field and give full play to their personal abilities. Ginobili is an exception, his playing time is also controlled, and players like Iverson, Guo Xu, and James have to be scrapped to the Spurs.

Vicky yelled at Parker, "Stick to him, he says we're dirty, don't you do anything?" Do you want to let him beat you up? Knocking out Spurs? You're taller than him, don't act like a. ”

He tapped on the tactical board. "Robert assists in defense, puts Haslem to shoot, Tim guards in, and can't let Jason Guo play alone so easily."

**Vicky is most annoyed by a single player like Guo Xu, because he doesn't like to arrange bag clips, the Spurs system pays attention to single defense stars, strictly guards against role players and outside three-pointers, and waits for stars to shoot a lot, and then wraps a few times when the role players are cold and have no confidence to shoot in the final quarter.

There are often stars who score high points in the face of the Spurs, but the overall offensive rhythm is easy to be disjointed and unable to play a smooth coordination.

Therefore, the Spurs often lose to teams whose stars are good at heads-up, and they are not afraid of tactics, and it is easy to have accidents when encountering unreasonable stars such as Kobe, Durant, and Stoudamire. In his previous life, even Bunch Wells broke out against the Kings against the Spurs, scoring 23.2 points and 12 rebounds in six playoff games.

Because of the butterfly effect caused by Guo Xu, this historical event has been erased, and the Kings have not made the playoffs this year.

Now Vicky has to admit that the Spurs' familiar style of play doesn't work for Guo Xu, and the game continues, and the Spurs begin to wrap Guo Xu and speed up the rotation.

Guo Xu is not strong to play, after attracting the bag, he will share the ball to find his teammates, and whoever has an easy chance to shoot will shoot.

Once the Spurs score from outside the lineup, this bag is not easy to break, because he is still guarded by Duncan under the basket. Duncan's interference shooting ability is super strong, and he doesn't need to jump very high, and his 230CM arm span can block the line of sight.

The weakness of the Suns' lineup is the lack of offensive power on the inside, and it is only slightly better to send David Lee, and the defense will be much worse, and it is impossible to easily kill the Spurs in one wave. The first two rounds can be swept and related to the weak strength of the opponent.

Haslem was competitive and quickly hit two mid-range shots, and Bale also scored a three-pointer.

In the regular season, Guo Xu played the Spurs four times and actively shared the ball, in order to cooperate with his teammates to help them find confidence, and the Sun would not fall into the rhythm of the Spurs.

Vallejo didn't perform much on the offensive end, and was completely defended by Duncan, his shooting rate out of the penalty area was too low, and Duncan directly let him go to save Haslem, showing top defensive awareness.

The Spurs had an equally difficult time scoring, Parker and Bowen were prevented, and the ball was in the hands of Duncan and Ginobili most of the time, and the Suns relied on Guo Xu's play to maintain the advantage, leading 28-20 in the first quarter.

Guo Xu scored 15 points and 4 assists, and Parker scored 2 points and 1 assist, with an obvious gap.

**Vicky knew that Parker couldn't deal with Guo Xu alone, and when he had a headache, the DP combination went down to rest together, but the Suns did not replace Guo Xu and let him take the bench.

Parker can't stop Guo Xu, and the veteran Van Exel, who is about to retire, can't do it. Nesterovic came on and defended very little, just near the penalty area.

Guo Xu and David Li scored 6 points in a row, and the Spurs' defense was caught off guard by a loophole, and Vicky called a timeout again......
