Chapter 310 [The benchmark of a super point guard]

The next two teams fought hard to attack, and the game was very exciting.

Mobley of the Rockets was in excellent form, shooting two three-pointers and one mid-range shot; Morris Taylor, who came on the bench, also showed excellent frame skills and stable mid-range shots, scoring 4 points.

However, the Rockets' other players performed poorly, only Francis forced a breakthrough and caused Guo Xu to foul, making two free throws.

The Suns performed best in the fight, Guo Xu quickly went down, and played pick-and-roll in the positional battle, either breaking or shooting, and he was at ease. He assisted Stadameier to dunk and also assisted Marion to make a three-pointer and layup.

Yao Ming's defense end was too difficult to face Marion, who was as fast as the defender. He hurried near the penalty area and took action from a long distance without making a opponent. As soon as he went out, Xiao Si would cut into the basket again.

Too much energy was spent on the defensive end, which also affected Yao Ming's performance on the offensive end. He finally made a move, and his right turn and shot was blocked by Marion's assisted defense. Marion jumped too high and even blocked Yao Ming from the side.

Then the Suns counterattacked, Guo Xu broke through misplaced and forced a foul by Posillas, and made both free throws. Yao Ming was replaced in the last minute and a half, and Kevin Cato appeared.

Kato is a meat shield blue-collar worker with no offensive ability. He has good defense and can defend the penalty area, but after covering, he can free himself on the perimeter, and the score depends on the basket to pick up the bargains.

Sure enough, after the substitution, the Suns' joint defense played a role, and the Rockets made all the irons in the next four attempts.

The Suns led 33 to 25, Guo Xu scored 12 points and 5 assists in a single quarter, completely suppressing Francis, who had 3 points and 2 assists.

Zhang Heli commented: "Boss Fu is obviously not a match for Boss Guo. The Rockets would not be able to play in this position. If Mobri hadn't scored 13 points in a single quarter, the Rockets would be more behind."

Xu Jicheng smiled and said, "Boss Guo wore a wig at the Great Wall in 2001, and the white-bearded fights Kobe alone. I think Boss Fu's defense doesn't seem to be of great significance to him."

Guo Xu rested in the second quarter, and the two sides competed as a substitute. The Rockets quickly overtook the score. Tang Shuai's tactics were very targeted, while D'Antoni's tactics were no different from the first quarter. They had a run-and-bombing battle and a pick-and-roll.

It doesn't matter if Guo Xu can't play a running, bomb and counterattack when he is at the time. He can rely on his personal ability to drive the whole team. Alstom is not good, and his control of rhythm and shooting are much worse.

Rockets substitute point guards Muchi Norris and Taylor scored consecutively, and the pick-and-roll cooperation was very tacit, and veteran Glenn Rice also made a three-pointer.

It only depends on the reputation of the players, and the Rockets' bench lineup is extraordinary. Needless to say, Rice won the championship in 2000 as the third leader in the Lakers, and was also the boss for several years when he was with the Hornets. Taylor was a person who got a high salary and long appointment through offense. He looked like an All-Star, and used to score various dunks, dunks, and singles.

After Guo Xu came on the court, he immediately misplaced Taylor and two of them. Shuai Tang knew that Taylor's defense was bad, so he quickly replaced him and replaced him with Griffin who had been resting for a while.

Except for Guo Xu, the Suns players were all silent in this quarter and only scored 14 points in a single quarter.

Marion made 0 of 5 shots and grabbed 4 rebounds. Sergei made 1 of 4 shots, 2 of 3 free throws, scored 4 points and 3 rebounds. Nene made 0 of 2 shots, but failed to score a single rebound. Jacquesen made 0 of 2 shots, with only one turnover in the data. Joe Johnson scored 2 points.

Guo Xu scored 8 points and 1 assist, 20 points and 6 assists in the first half, with the best performance in the whole game, and the Suns fell behind 47 to 54.

Running and shooting is an advanced basketball concept that can make up for the shortcomings of young players' lack of experience. If the running and shooting tactics are successfully played, the ratings and attendance rate will be guaranteed, which can allow young rebuilding teams to be reborn and refreshed.

However, no team that mainly runs and fights in the playoffs can take the finals bus. If the Suns want to dominate the league like the Bulls and Lakers, they must practice positional battles because the running and fighting style lacks stability.

In the third quarter, Guo Xu's touch became worse. He made 3 of 8 shots and 3 outside shots all missed the basket. With two free throws, he scored 8 points and 2 assists. Fortunately, Marion regained his feelings in time, making 3 of 4 shots, 1 of 1 of 3-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and contributing 9 points and 3 rebounds.

In this quarter, the Suns scored 25 points, and the Rockets' offensive blossomed at multiple points, scoring 28 points. The Suns fell 72 to 82 and entered the final quarter by 10 points.

Zhang Heli said: "The Rockets played better overall today, but Guo Xu is still the most eye-catching. He is silent and quicker than 30+10. He is now averaging 25.9 points, 10.2 assists and 1.7 steals per game. This kind of data hasn't been seen in years."

Xu Jicheng said: "There is only Guo Xu in the entire league that can produce such data in real time, which is really a superstar performance."

In the traditional concept of NBA, there is a data standard that has always been regarded as the benchmark for super point guards, that is, averaging 20 points and 10 assists per game. Super point guards do not have to average 20 points and 10 assists per game, but those who can do this must be super point guards.

Currently, only 8 defenders in NBA history have played such data, namely "Magic" Johnson (3 times), Oscar Robertson (5 times), Isia Thomas (4 times), Kevin Johnson (3 times), Knight Archibald (1 time), Tim Hardaway (1 time), and Michael Adams (1 time).

Guo Xu is the eighth player in history. Everyone believes that he will keep the double-double data until the end of the regular season and will even continue to improve the data. It is not difficult for him to play 20+10, and it seems that he can challenge him by averaging 30+10 per game.

The Suns' running and bombing tactics were powerful in the last quarter, and soon caught up with the score. Guo Xu, Xiao Si and Marion scored repeatedly, and launched a counterattack when they had the chance, forming an offensive trident.

The Rockets' weaknesses began to appear, and both insiders had problems.

At the critical moment, Griffin could not concentrate and was replaced after missing a few times on the defensive end. He had done too many extraordinary things. He was fired for a fight with his teammates in college, and his personality was destined to be impossible for him to become a star.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Griffin, who was only 25 years old, died in a car accident. He was drunk and drug-abused, and his brain-dead personality made Griffin die young. His athletic talent brought him money and death. He was the number one in the history of NBA to waste talent.

Yao Ming couldn't run anymore, and the efficiency of both offense and defense began to decline.

Many people say that poor physical strength is an important reason why Yao Ming cannot become a superstar.

Is Yao Ming's physical strength different? In fact, it is not bad at all. He is 226cm tall and weighs nearly 300 kilograms at the highest. In this way, he has played 486 regular season games in his career and can play 32.5 minutes per game, which is already amazing. A "superman"-level physical fitness like O'Neal, the average playing time in the regular season is only 2.2 minutes more than Yao Ming.

Yao Ming had no problem fighting a slow-paced positional battle. What he was afraid of was sprinting back and forth, and all heavy insiders were afraid of this. The Suns were the best at doing this. Yao Ming followed him back for three quarters, and was so tired in the last quarter.

When competing with beasts like Xiao Si, it is not just Yao Ming that can't do it, but the centers of other teams are not good either. The most tormenting thing is that even if the Suns replace Xiao Si, Nene, who is substitute, will still race against Yao Ming...

Shuai Tang was forced to replace Kato, and the team's inside offense suddenly became very poor. Fortunately, Percy, Mobri and Francis had good outside firepower, and they bit the score in the second half.
