After practicing football, Guo Xu went home and found that Meghan was not there. He opened his backpack and found that there were missed calls and text messages on his phone.

"Buddy has heat stroke, I'll take it to the hospital. You can have lunch outside at noon."

Guo Xu sighed and felt that it was really troublesome. At the beginning, he was a little disgusted with raising a dog like Husky, but this was a gift from Meghan's parents and it was hard to refuse.

Husky is a creature that cannot be idle at all. Not only does it destroy its home, but even in the hot summer, it cannot stop its heart that likes to go out and play.

The temperature in Phoenix was obviously not suitable for going out during the day, so they shaved Buddy, and after shaving, she looked like a donkey. Buddy was honest for two days and seemed unable to face his dog's birth. He didn't cooperate with taking photos and didn't eat well.

In order not to make it have a shadow on his mind, Meghan often talks to Buddy, praising him for being so handsome. I don’t know if this guy really understands human words. He started going out to play again and likes to go out to play at noon.

Today, it finally had heatstroke...

Guo Xu went to a nearby restaurant to buy some convenient food, and then went to the veterinary hospital to find Megan to have dinner with him.

Seeing Buddy lying on his lifelessly, he was lying on his back and replenishing water, Guo Xu laughed out loud.

Megan was moved when she saw him bringing her meal for her, then she pouted: "Buddy is so miserable, are you still laughing?"

"Haha, I suddenly felt that this was a sign. The Husky was destined to be unable to beat the Suns. I will go to the Husky home game next." Seeing the supernatural powers, Guo Xu believed in metaphysics more than anyone else.

“…”

The Timberwolves are called the Huskies, not because they changed their logo in 2017, but because they performed too badly.

The Timberwolves, who joined the NBA in 1989, achieved only 22 wins and 60 losses in the first season. Since then, the team has won less than 30 regular season games for seven consecutive years. In 1995, the Timberwolves selected high school player Garnett with the fifth pick in the first round. The team made a historic breakthrough in the 1996-97 season and entered the playoffs for the first time. After many years, they could not pass the first round.

This time the team's best record in the history of the Western Conference Finals, they finally look like a Timberwolves.

The young white female veterinarian Nan An came forward and asked in a gossip: "Jason, it turns out that the news is not a mess. You and Meghan are really lovers. Why have you not made it public?"

Megan took Buddy to see the veterinarian twice alone, and bought some things here, not far from home, and met Nan'an.

In Phoenix City, everyone knows Guo Xu, who is the biggest star in the city, and people are also curious about who his girlfriend is. Nan'an asked Megan before, but she did not admit it.

Guo Xu smiled and explained: "Because she was not very famous before, she was just an ordinary young actress in Hollywood. I am afraid that it would put a lot of pressure on her if she made it public. After the end of this season, we will make it public."

"It's so considerate." Nan An patted his chest, showing an envious look. "Can I take a photo with you?"

"Of course, you can also bring it with you." Guo Xu pointed at Buddy.

There is a digital camera in the Nan'an store. They took many photos together, and the sluggish Buddy acted as an emoticon.

Because of Buddy's affairs, Guo Xu was in a good mood when he went to catch a special plane at night and was very relaxed. However, the atmosphere in the Suns team was not very good, and his teammates didn't chat much, and the 0-2 behind brought psychological pressure to the young players.

The coaching staff must boost morale before the game begins, and it is unknown how useful it can be. Colangelo and his son are also a little pessimistic about the prospects of the Suns, mainly because the players are young and the Timberwolves are not afraid of running and bombing tactics most of the time.

If the Suns continue to use the running and bombing tactics as the main point, it will not be easy for the Suns to deal with the Timberwolves, which will allow the opponent to display their defensive expertise.

The lineup mutual restraint has always existed. Famous examples in Guo Xu's previous life, such as the weak Bobcats who defeated the peak Lakers in 2009 and 2010 for two consecutive seasons, and one of them was still swept; the Warriors, who had a record-breaking 73 wins in the 2015-16 season, lost to the bottom Lakers, etc.

The Suns had to adjust their tactics and lineup. After getting on the plane, D'Antoni invited Guo Xu to sit together and talked about tactics with him.

"Jason, I'm going to adjust my tactics tomorrow night, you need to change your playing style."

"What tactics?" Guo Xu asked.

"I'm going to let Nene, Amare, Joe and Joe be responsible for the organization. You will increase the number of running without the ball, catch the ball directly, or find opportunities for misplaced singles, so that the two insides can hit the basket together, which can cause damage. Previously, our insides were mainly mid-range shots, and lacked a sense of ruthlessness." D'Antoni explained.

It is euphemism to say that lacking very strong is that Guo Xu passed a lot in the first two games, and he wanted to drive the entire team's offense like the regular season, but he did not. The performance of the young players in this round of the series was disappointing, and their outside shooting was not very accurate.

Not only young players, Marion was not qualified as the second in command of the team. He didn't dare to shoot outside the three-point line, and he also missed the final key open mid-range shot.

Marion missed five open shots on the court. He won by just one Sun on the outside. He might not be able to score two three-pointers. The Timberwolves player's mentality has long collapsed and he can't catch up with points.

The role players missed the opportunity to expand their advantages while leading again and again. After the coaching staff held a meeting to discuss, they felt that if they continued to play like this, young role players might kill the Suns. It would be better to arrange extreme tactics to maximize Guo Xu's scoring ability and strive to let him cut super data and kill the Timberwolves.

In other positions, reliable people are used to assist Guo Xu, from 10-player rotation to 8-player rotation, increasing playing time.

Last season, Guo Xu played a big double-double against the Timberwolves, with super data. At that time, the Timberwolves' point guard Troy Hudson was still at the peak.

Hudson, a "little madman" who is 185cm tall and weighs 77 kilograms, received a full middle class contract in the summer and was reimbursed for the season only after playing 29 games in the regular season. Because he is very fast, the effect of defending Guo Xu alone is better than Kassel. Last season, Guo Xu was able to score super data against the Timberwolves, and now it should be as long as the tactics are appropriate.

Guo Xu asked with a smile: "Do I have unlimited right to take action? Do you want to fight anyway?"

"You can adjust the feel properly, if you have a good feel, you can shoot 40 times. I allow you to play selfishly, and the team needs you to do this," D'Antoni said seriously.

Judging from the team performance in the first two games, even if Guo Xu's shooting percentage is only 45%, he is more reliable than many teammates in 40 shots. Sometimes, it is not a good choice on the court and can definitely get a good result.

Guo Xu's choice has always been correct. If you attract double teams, try to pass the ball to the open position, but your teammates have to make a shot. If you don't make a shot, you won't get a good review. People will say that he dare not shoot at critical moments and pass the blame.

Guo Xu knew this well. In his previous life, James had a higher shooting percentage than Kobe's key balls, but James's label was "passing the blame at a critical moment", and Kobe's label was "the king of the final kill"!

In the eyes of many people, stars must take more actions. As long as they dare to shoot, they can also be the "king of the final kill" with a shooting rate of less than 30%, even if the final kill of most games is their own team...

Guo Xu smiled confidently. "Leave it to me."

The infinite shooting style is exactly what he wants. He wanted to help his teammates perform in the previous playoffs, and he played more selflessly.
