Chapter 191 [Single Section 25 Points, Horror Performance]

The Celtics attacked, Antoine Walker and Crawford played pick-and-roll, received the ball from the outside and scored a three-pointer against Pan Percy, and finally hit a 42-33.

In the Lakers' positional battle, Guo Xu waved his hand to Bowen and asked him to go to the low post. Bowen was very obedient and stood on the side of the penalty area on the left. It would definitely not be possible to let go of the empty space. A big man with a 206cm step can get to the basket, and beginners can also put the ball in.

The other three people pulled apart, George was in the bottom corner on the left, Horry was in the bottom corner on the right, and Pan Persi was 70 degrees on the right. Those who didn't know the formation thought that Guo Xu wanted to lob the ball to play a triangle attack on Bowen at the low post. Bowen will play a role in axial position and take Walker with his back...

The biggest function of the triangle offense is to help stars create singles opportunities. As long as Jordan does not break through to the penalty area, he also had many singles opportunities back then. At that time, Jordan also had teammates who were not good at scoring. Rodman could still attract a person's defense to the low post, which was like Bowen now, who was fighting for rebounds.

Guo Xu dribbled the ball under his left hand in the middle and gave it a slight blow to his right hand. Perasio changed his defensive strategy and went forward to gamble and steal. Guo Xu did not use the cross-step change, but dribbled the ball behind his right hand and gave it to his left hand again, and he successfully turned sideways.

He reacted too quickly and instantly completed a change of moves. He stopped in front of the free throw line and attracted Eric to make up for defense. He passed the ball with both hands to George on the outside.

George made a three-pointer with an open jump from the left, and the ball missed the basket and failed to seize the opportunity. He has been practicing three-pointers in the team, but his field is still unstable. His shooting percentage this season is only 41%, and his three-point line is almost always open, and his shooting percentage is only 29%.

Whenever George misses his open shot, Jackson is a little depressed on the sidelines. If George is sure to shoot, he can replace Fox. The two are not at the same level of athletic ability, but unfortunately he is still not in a good position in the second season.

After two more rounds, Guo Xu broke through and passed the ball to George and Horry. Both of them made empty shots, while Crawford broke through and made two points with two points. 42 to 35.

At this time, Guo Xu began to miss O'Neal. As long as O'Pang is there, the opponent cannot cross him outside and must shrink the formation and the restricted area. As long as he gets a single chance, no matter who he faces, even if he is a defensive expert, it is easier to take action than to face double-teams.

Jackson also knew this, and after the dead ball, he replaced O'Neal, Fox, replaced Bowen and George, and the Celtics replaced Pierce to strengthen the attack.

As soon as O'Neal came on the court, the Celtics' defense immediately had problems. Walker, the little fat man, could not withstand the big fat man. O'Neal scored 3 points in a row with free throws, and O'Brien replaced the meat shield center Vitali when the ball was dead. 45 to 35.

If it was O'Neal last season, he would catch the ball at a low position and attack with his back, which attracted double-teams to pass the ball. This season, Guo Xu was born out of nowhere and the misalignment breakthrough was particularly sharp. O'Neal began to like to pull out and play pick-and-roll.

O'Pang is more than anyone else looking forward to the Lakers' record breaking. The Lakers won 67 last season and surpassed Jordan this year. As the boss of the team, he is the most glorious.

What a glory this is? It will allow him to gain a lot of opportunities for commercial endorsement and make a fortune. Last season, he won two MVPs and became the number one NBA. This year he wants to consolidate his position and prove that his era is coming.

O'Neal's cover quality is very high, and it is even more difficult for the defender to chase Guo Xu. Vitali was already very troubled to defend O'Fat alone. He was a little stunned when he encountered the pick-and-roll and forgot to change defense.

Guo Xu moved one step, made another three-pointer with an open jumper on the right, 48 to 35, with his 20th point, and made 4 of 5 three-pointers.

Commentator Charlie shouted: "Jason scored another three-pointer, and the second quarter will be over 4 and a half minutes. He dedicated his most violent single-quarter performance of the season to the fans!"

Qiao smiled and said, "As long as O'Neal comes out to pick-and-roll, it's really not difficult for him to score, and it's not difficult for assists. The power of the two pick-and-rolls is comparable to that of the Jazz."

Pierce received the ball from the right, then stepped forward and passed Fox, and scored a layup before O'Neal made up for defense, 48 to 37.

In the Lakers' positional battle, Guo Xu and O'Neal got rid of the pick-and-roll in the middle and got rid of the right side, and Vitali replaced the defense. Guo Xu lowered his center of gravity and changed slightly and quickly led the bottom line. Vitali could only try his best to follow him to the basket.

Guo Xu turned around on the penalty area line and gently passed the ball from Vitali to the middle. O'Neal cut and followed up, and received the ball with one hand and dunked in. Vitali didn't even have time to pull someone to foul, so he was dunked.

50 to 37. Guo Xu made the second assist.

The Celtics attacked, and there was no time to pass it several times, but in the end it was handed over to Pierce to fight alone. This was the most confident offensive point for the Celtics.

After Pierce made a strong breakthrough in Fox after exploring the steps, he attracted the opponent's center of gravity to move and pulled the ball and turned around to the middle, and received a backward jump shot and avoided the blocking ball. 50 to 39.

As far as technology is concerned, Pierce and Kobe are at the same level. They are really attacking kaleidoscopes. His back, breakthroughs, and shooting are all excellent, and all kinds of fake moves emerge one after another.

Unfortunately, Pierce's physical fitness is not top-notch and his desire to score is not strong, so in Guo Xu's previous life, he was not a superstar, he had never won the scoring champion, and he was not very popular, and he had never even been an All-Star.

On the other hand, Guo Xu has a much stronger desire to score as a point guard than Pierce. As long as he is given unlimited shooting rights, he will play in a very violent way, and the shooting frequency is scary.

This time he didn't have to cover up, and played a secret code to make O'Neal prepare to grab a rebound at the low post, and directly challenged Perasio.

He dribbled under his crotch twice in the middle, and changed direction to the left with the ball in his right hand. Perasio followed with all his attention.

However, it was not over. Guo Xu leaned on Perasio with his back, shook his left shoulder gently in the middle, and at the same time, he gently patted the basketball with his right hand to his left hand, making a false move to turn to the middle. Perasio's center of gravity moved slightly, Guo Xu held the ball in his left hand, quickly turned to the right, and made a quick stop and jump shot at 45 degrees.

Perasio was almost fainted, so he could only stretch out his hand to interfere slightly. No one was able to defend himself on the weak side, and Guo Xu easily played cricket.

52 to 39, the 22nd point in the individual.

Everyone can see that the huge gap between the point guards of both sides is too big. Sadly, no one can change the Celtics, and the No. 1 position can be said to be the weakest in the league.

Perasio dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and wanted to give it another one. He faced Guo Xu in the middle to use his height advantage to pull out a three-pointer and missed the interference, and O'Neal grabbed the backcourt rebound.

Celtics coach O'Brien hesitated on the sidelines whether to replace Randy Brown. He knew that veteran Brown's horizontal movement speed was slower, and he didn't know what would happen if Guo Xu was going to break out.

It would be great if there was a fast-speed guard in the team. O'Brien's mind had been deviated, and he felt that being small was a terrifying advantage on the basketball court. In fact, the player was simply small and useless. Kenny Anderson, who was sent away by the Celtics, was an example. Once the speed slowed down, it would not work.

After that, the Celtics substitutions allowed Brown to play against Guo Xu, and the wingers went forward to double-team at any time. After attracting assisted defense, Guo Xu did not attack strongly, and the focus of the offensive shifted to the inside. O'Neal played a few more with his personal ability.

Before the end of the half, the Lakers' last attack was in. Guo Xu suddenly took a step and jumped a three-pointer one meter from the right side. Brown responded slowly and interfered slightly, and then made another one!

Guo Xu made 5 of 7 three-pointers in a single quarter, scoring a total of 25 points and 2 assists. The Lakers were in full swing at home!
