Chapter 447 [Not a good idea, my hands are getting hot again]
The other two games that started first have ended.
The Magic defeated the Cavaliers 113-101 in overtime and won the 8th game of the season.
McGrady played for 50 minutes, made 15 of 29 shots, 5 of 9 three-pointers, 6 of 9 free throws, and scored 41 points, 8 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 steals, beating James' 34 points and 6 assists.
McGrady is a player who broke out in the Christmas game, but he was stolen by Guo Xu again. Before the Suns' overtime game started, Guo Xu scored more points than McGrady. Last season, Guo Xu scored super data against the Lakers in the Christmas game last season.
The Rockets, who lost a series of losses in the West, finally stopped the decline and defeated the Lakers 99-87 away.
Malone was injured after only 6 minutes of playing, Medvedek got 23 minutes of playing time, the Lakers' defense became very poor, the Rockets performed well on the outside, and Yao Ming also scored 18 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks.
Kobe missed his performance, making 9 of 26 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 23 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists.
O'Neal made 5 of 12 shots, 12 of 18 free throws, scoring 22 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks.
Another group of people online blew up Kato, who scored 5 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks in 34 minutes, said that his role was not reflected by data, because he was responsible for fighting O'Neal and protecting Yao Ming.
In fact, if Yao Ming was asked to defend O'Neal, he would feel much more comfortable to defend near the penalty area. If there wasn't someone who was crazy about singles and Patton had no right to ball, the Lakers might not lose if they played more pick-and-roll.
"Zen Master" Jackson has become a Buddha this season. No matter whether the players on the court cooperate or whether the shooting feels, he doesn't call a timeout, allowing the players to adjust casually on the court.
Many Lakers fans left the court early in the final quarter, which was something they had never seen before. This was no longer their favorite. They had super strong offense and often defeated their opponents in three quarters. Even if they won the game, the Lakers often played with weak teams until the end. They rely on singles to play by the stars and narrowly won the key ball with low shooting percentage. Where did the strong teams get so many key balls?
Chinese fans have begun to pay attention to the Suns game, and some local stations have broadcast the ratings soared. After seeing the ratings, the leaders of CCTV5 also began to consider more broadcasts of the Suns game in the future.
During the suspension period, D'Antoni continued his small ball tactics, and the big man sent only one Nene to defend the penalty area.
Si's offensive performance was good today with 18 points and 8 rebounds, but his defensive end was too poor. He could not defend Nowitzki for 5 fouls on his back. He pulled out to defend Walker and was easily overwhelmed when he was beaten.
Nene played for only 20 minutes, was physically strong, and could help the team on both offense and defense. The other four were Haslem, Marion, Lagabel and Guo Xu.
The Suns' tactics are very simple, they are left to Guo Xu to fight, and the others can defend firmly.
"Nene is careful to cover Jason without the ball and help him get rid of the catch. Jason can also lead the ball and play singles directly through the half. You have unlimited shooting rights. Whether to break through or shoot is your own decision."
This is exactly what Guo Xu wants. The Mavericks stubbornly chased into overtime, but they have few players in rotation, and the five starting players consumed a lot of energy and could no longer hold it.
Today, the Mavericks core Nowitzki played 48 minutes in regular time. Nelson, the old man, thought that Nowitzki had a chance to lead a change in the basketball world in the draft that year. This kind of big man who can shoot is indeed good, but the Mavericks are too dependent on it.
Finley played for 38 minutes, Walker played for 37 minutes, Jamison and Nash played for 35 minutes, and the Mavericks relied on five starts.
The Suns only played for more than 35 minutes. He had a rest for a while in the second and last quarters. He was still very physically strong in 38 minutes, which was much easier than Novizki. The coaching staff was preparing to let him play overtime.
The game continues, and the Suns attack first.
Guo Xu took the ball to the frontcourt, and his teammates all pulled away, Nene went out of the three-point line to cover Nash.
Guo Xu dribbled the ball and pulled it away. Nowitzki blocked it and made him unable to easily make a three-pointer, and then returned to Nene who was cutting the empty space.
Nene went to the left low post to stand to attract defense. The Mavericks' right player wanted to double-team Guo Xu, but he could only go to Finley in the bottom corner, with the price being short of Bale with range. The Mavericks did not dare to do this. Bale had already made three three-pointers.
Guo Xu took a small step to the right with a 50-degree face frame, dribbled the ball behind his right hand to his left hand, took the left foot and took the jump shot, and scored against Nash's mid-range shot. 113 to 111.
Nash almost didn't jump, he just reached out to interfere, and Guo Xu couldn't feel the pressure when he took action.
When the Mavericks attacked, Nowitzki caught the ball and faced Nene. At this time, he was going to compete for the star's personal ability. Old Nelson believed that he was the most confident offensive point.
Nowitzki shook and turned around in the middle, and missed the shot with serious interference. Marion grabbed the rebound.
Smith commented: "Old Nelson wants to beat Jason's team too much. He let the main players play for a long time, treating it as the playoffs. Now the Suns have strengthened their defense, and it is not a good idea to play Nene alone."
Barkley smiled and said, "Finley performed poorly this season. The Mavericks can only choose Nowitzki and Jamison in singles. I don't think there will be a good result when Nash fights Jason alone."
Larry Drew is an assistant coach who attaches importance to defense. He advised D'Antoni to allow Joe Johnson, who can hold the ball and have a good feel in the final quarter, to rest, reuse Bale, and let Marion defend the small forward. This is a key adjustment. Today, Joe Johnson suffered a loss in the defensive end against Jamison.
Now that Marion is entangled, Jamison is not easy to catch the ball.
The Suns attacked and played the same tactic as before. Guo Xu led the pick-and-roll cooperation with Nene to the weak side through halftime. Nene to cut the gap to attract Nowitzki to retreat, and Guo Xu pulled out the weak side to challenge Nash.
He first dribbled the ball under his crotch and changed direction to the right. Nash followed. Guo Xu protected the ball with his back and hit Nash and turned around and took a step and jumped into the middle. He pulled a distance of one meter by speed, and the ball was hollowed into the net.
115 to 111, the individual score 61st.
Guo Xu's data was displayed on the big screen of the stadium, and the Suns fans applauded hard. Everyone wanted to know how many times he could play 60+ in a single season.
Barkley said: "If the Suns continue to win, Jason is very sure to play Nash alone."
Smith said: "In the last quarter, the Mavericks encountered a pick-and-roll in the inside, and they were stuck in the position where Jason made a three-pointer. Now he looked for screening and waited for the big man to leave before he played the central shot alone. The Mavericks had no choice."
In a one-on-one challenge, the most offensive method must be mid-range shots. Guo Xu, Bibi, and Wade are used to singles, and there are no blind spots in the shooting. He can also play if he is blocked by three-pointers.
When playing against the Kings, Bibi's interfering shooting ability was very poor, and he averaged 0.1 blocks per game in his career. Nash, the guard who was equally poor, could not block a few times throughout the season. He had a worse bounce than Bibi. Nash's height was 191cm, which was also a false report. He was actually at most 187cm, not much taller than Guo Xu, and his wingspan was not outstanding.
Even the strongest one of Nash is a little slower than Guo Xu, and Guo Xu can already crush him with talent this season.
The Mavericks passed and cooperated, and Nash wanted to return one, and ran without the ball and received the ball and scored a three-pointer. Haslem's defense conversion speed was very fast, and he successfully interfered with the shooting. The rebound was grabbed by Marion and launched a counterattack with a pass.
Guo Xu received the ball from the fast break and got the chance to challenge Nash one-on-one, forcibly breaking through, leaning on Nash to go on the right to enter the basketball.
117 to 111, the individual scored 63.
Nash is already very active in defense, but due to physical conditions, he cannot make a layup on the opponent, but it is useless to follow. He is not good at blocking positions, giving Guo Xu plenty of room to take off.
