Chapter 336 [Soaring points! Most of the top coaches are Yixiu]
Arenas relied on his height to lob the ball at a low post. Danpier received the ball and turned to attack the basket, causing Sir to foul.
Danpier is in good shape today, hitting both free throws. 23 to 18.
In his seventh season of his career, Danpier's free throw shooting percentage reached 70%. Although he averaged only 2.7 free throws per game, he was sure to go to the free throw line and would not be afraid.
Guo Xu and Xiao Si passed the ball to the middle after playing pick-and-roll. Xiao Si started to catch the ball. Danpier seemed to be unable to get a position and chose to foul. Now all teams are dealing with the Suns in this way, and they fouled in time to send two new players free throws in the inside. Xiao Si's free throw shooting percentage is 66%, Nene 58%, and he can score, but he can't play a dunk that brings morale.
Xiao Si made one of two free throws. 24 to 18.
Arenas broke through and made a layup after pick-and-roll, but missed it with Sir. Marion grabbed the rebound and passed it with a pass. Guo Xu changed direction and easily passed Danpier. He was about to get off the single player quickly, and Danpier fouled another midfielder.
Danpier had two infringers within one minute, and the Warriors were forced to replace him.
Warriors substitute center Adonal Foyer is 208cm tall and weighs 113 kilograms. He is a blue-collar with outstanding physical fitness, controls rebounds and has strong blocking ability. He was selected eighth in 1997, but his performance on the offensive end is even worse than Dampier. His scoring is entirely due to bargaining and his free throw shooting percentage is less than 50%.
It is precisely because of Foyer that the Warriors management considers trading Dampier for Nene to train, and the two overlap.
After two rounds, D'Antoni replaced Kirisek and replaced veteran Kukochi. Marion went to the small forward position to defend Jamison and strengthened the defense appropriately. At the same time, the No. 4 position can also open up space, Kukochi will not suffer any loss in defense. He and Murphy are both tall and thin.
In the second half, both sides' shooting percentages decreased. Guo Xu only got away from Murphy's layup during counterattack. He also gave an assist and picked up a backcourt rebound and passed the ball with one hand to Sir who was about to score a dunk.
The Suns led 36 to 32 in a single quarter, but the score did not widen. Before the end, Bathir played two consecutive games, scored 7 points and 2 assists in a single quarter, and performed well. Jamison also scored 9 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist.
Guo Xu made 12 points, 6 assists and 0 mistakes, surpassing Arenas, who had 4 points and 3 assists. The latter made 2 of 5 shots, missed the basket with two three-point shots, and made 4 mistakes.
In the first quarter, the gap between Arenas and Guo Xu was clearly seen. He was a defender who mainly scored and did not do well in connecting the team's offense. He could only assist his teammates well after playing pick-and-roll, or attracting double-teams. He made mistakes in passing the ball multiple times, and rarely found space.
Guo Xu left the court for a break in the next quarter, Alstom came on the court, and Arenas, who continued to play, began to show his strength.
He received Sula's pass and scored two points in the mid-range shot, and soon received Jamison's pass and made a three-pointer, helping the team overtake the score. Later, he passed the ball to Sula who was a cutter, who caused Joe Johnson to foul and made both free throws.
On the Suns' side, Kukoc, Alstom, and Joe Johnson took turns shooting and hitting irons.
36 to 39, two minutes later, coach Musselman replaced Arenas to rest and replaced the small point guard Boykins.
With Guo Xu's emergence, each team will now consider signing a fast-speed small defender to enrich the outside tactics. When they appear to play pick-and-roll at a certain period, it will be difficult for the opponent to defend the inside.
D'Antoni also made adjustments, Guo Xu appeared and replaced in poor form. Joe Johnson made 1 of 5 shots and Alstom formed a double defender against Boykins.
When he saw Guo Xu appearing, Boykins' heart beat wildly. When he was on campus, he would be so nervous. One was that he met the girl he liked, and the other was that he met the school bully who wanted to bully him.
Boykins, who is 165cm in this season, scored his peak career data after joining the Warriors, averaging 9 points and 3.2 assists per game. He is also an inspirational player, with strong offense and weak defense. He cannot defend Guo Xu. The two have faced each other many times in recent years, but they cannot defend at all.
When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu dribbled the ball to the frontcourt to play pick-and-roll with Nene. Foyer's replacement was slow, and Boykins was hit and staggered. If the Suns hadn't played at home, Nene might have been banned.
Guo Xu moved one step, made a three-pointer with an open jump shot from the right side, and made a steady hit.
39 to 39, the 15th point in the individual.
The Warriors attacked, Sula fought Alstom's emergency stop and made a jump shot, and Foyer scored a tip-in. 39 to 41.
When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu took him to the frontcourt and waved his teammates to pull him away, and directly challenged Boykins from the outside. He opened the distance and changed his crossing step to take a step left, dribbling the ball behind him and gave it to his right hand.
The distance between the dribbling behind him was a bit large, and he took the opportunity to step out of the 3-point line. He jumped into the 60-degree jump shot and made a three-pointer. Boykins was not thrown away, but he could not block the ball with all his strength, so he could only try his best to interfere. Guo Xu knew very well that he could not block, there was no pressure to hit the jump shot, the rhythm was very good, and the ball was hollow into the net.
42 to 41, the 18th point in the individual.
Barkley said excitedly: "It's starting to score. It's definitely not OK to let Boykins defend Jason. He can't make it all."
"This is obviously a targeted adjustment. Arenas was sent to Jason immediately, and his current task is to score."
Jamison took the ball and fought with one shot, passed Jacquesen's emergency stop and missed the jump shot. Nene grabbed the rebound, Alstom received the ball and quickly advanced to the frontcourt and passed it to Guo Xu. Guo Xu dribbled at Boykins. When he was about to meet, he pulled the ball up and squeezed the opponent's left and forced a layup. The ball did not enter, but the referee blew the whistle, and Boykins pulled the man for a foul.
Guo Xu made both free throws, 44 to 41, with the 20th score.
The Suns fought back in just 5 seconds and caused foul damage.
At this time, if the coach who responds well on the spot will immediately make a substitution adjustment, even if Arenas has just rested for a while, it will have to be replaced, otherwise the gap in number 1 will be too big.
But Musselman was as stable as Mount Tai on the sidelines and continued to imitate the "Zen Master". The gap did not widen, so he felt that there was no need to adjust.
There is a common problem for coaches who have no future, which is that they are not flexible enough. When they are assistant coaches, they do a good job of helping players arrange fixed training. Occasionally, they can also give some good suggestions, all of which are in the future with plenty of time off the court.
When the team's tactics or players are targeted during the game, the good coaches can immediately come up with a way to deal with it. Most of the top coaches are like Ikki. Turn two fingers on their heads a few times, and after the bgm of "cutting chickens, cutting chickens, cutting chickens, cutting chickens, cutting chickens, cutting chickens, and turning them into eunuchs... Oh no, I have an idea.
Guden played singles at Kukochi in the low post, turned around and missed Nene's defense. Foyer failed to grab the frontcourt rebound, and Jacquesen grabbed the rebound and passed it to Alstom.
Guden is also a player who changed his life because of the butterfly effect. In Guo Xu's previous life, his playing time in the rookie season was guaranteed and he was selected as the first team of the best rookie. Guden was able to play for 15 minutes on the Warriors Guden could only play for 6.3 points and 4.4 rebounds. He was used as a pure blue-collar worker with a mid-range shot.
The Warriors considered a mid-term trade, and discussed it with Suns manager Brian, but the Suns looked down on him, and their offense and defense performance was average, and they were a player who lacked characteristics.
Alstom's skills are not vegetarian either. Sula's 196cm double-energy defense is not good. He succeeds in changing directions. Sula did not commit a foul and chased defense behind her back.
Alston took the ball to the frontcourt and passed the ball. Guo Xu leaned against Boykins to get the ball, turned to the right, and overwhelmed his opponent with both hands to score at close range.
46 to 41, the 22nd point in the individual.
