Chapter 550 [75 wins and 7 losses, taking the best]

In the game against the Clippers, the whole team helped Marion brush up another wave of data. Because both Clippers can't run fast, Marion's tactical advantage in playing small balls at the No. 4 position is obvious. Moreover, the fourth leader has made it once, so can the third leader only do dirty work and tiring work?

Although Marion could not defend against the Clippers' star power forward Elton Brand, D'Antoni did not substitute, he just wanted to create a misaligned counterattack and score.

Defense? Is it worth it to deal with the Clippers?

The Clippers are still in decline this season. Last summer, the lineup seemed pretty good. They chose the team as the swinger of the 1996 Golden Generation of the Golden Generation, "Mosquito" Corey Kitels.

As a result, Kittles was reimbursed for 11 seasons, Livingston played 30 seasons, and insider Wilcox was in poor condition due to injury, and he had a rest of his injury.

The teammates not only helped Marion score points, but also helped him to rebound, which was to get people stuck and allow him to easily pick up rebounds. This method is indispensable for anyone to rebound, not to mention that Marion predicts the direction of the ball to be popped out very accurately and has amazing bounces?

The Clippers' defense is always half a beat slow, Guo Xu counterattacks, and the Clippers' 201cm point guard Yaric can't keep up with the speed, so he is easily overwhelmed. Brand's speed is slow in the inside line, and center Kaman is even more stuck and slow.

Unfortunately, Marion's shooting feel was unstable, and his scoring was mainly based on empty cuts and fast breaks. In the end, he only scored 32 points, 26 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

26 rebounds in a single game set a career high for Marion, with the previous record of 23 in a single game.

Guo Xu played for 35 minutes, scored 17 points and sent 22 assists.

It was also a simple game away against the Warriors. This time it was everyone's turn to help Xiao Si brush data together. It was fair for everyone to come to the last game. Guo Xu was brushing assists in every game, and everyone had no objection. Without him, the offense would not be so smooth.

The Warriors' center is Troy Murphy, a soft ball that can only be pulled out to shoot, and the power forward is veteran Clifford Robinson, and they can't defend the penalty area at all. Adonal Foyer is a blue-collar defensive collar and his offense is bad.

When the trade comes, Byron Davis Warriors are still weak teams, unless they make up for defense in the inside.

Sir Xiao scored 46 points and 13 rebounds without assists. He made seven dunks, and the Warriors' home basket was almost pulled down by him. Unfortunately, this game was not live broadcast across the United States, and he was not cool enough.

Guo Xu scored 23 points and 20 assists, with 20 consecutive assists.

If it weren't for the easy victory against the Lakers, Guo Xu might have scored 20+ assists in four consecutive games. His average assists per game has reached 15.5 times, and he can break the record as long as he keeps it.

Guo Xu was elected the Best Player in the West for three consecutive months, and won more awards for the Best Player in the Week. Even if his teammates performed well, they could not steal his limelight.

On March 11, the Suns' 20-game winning streak was ended, losing to the Rockets at home 118-127.

This Rockets' offense went crazy. McGrady scored 38 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. Bale, Marion, Howard couldn't defend himself, and he rushed to the front. Players with the style of McGrady are not very useful for double-teaming on the outside, so they can't block them.

Yao Ming made 11 of 18 shots, made 7 of 8 free throws, efficiently scored 27 points, 20 rebounds and 5 blocks, and beat Stardameier, who was also in a brave state.

Yao Ming's weight gain is unnecessary. He can defend the penalty area now. He is a heavy inside line of more than 130 kilograms. With his lower limbs, he has no pressure to deal with others except for the difficulty of defending O'Neal. On the offensive end, Yao Ming mainly relies on shooting, not to squeeze into the basket and dunk like O'Neal. As long as he can protect the ball and turn around, it is enough.

The Rockets no longer need Yao Ming to defend against pick-and-roll. He just plays as a center, and the substitute is Mutombo. Power forward Zhu Wan Howard has a mid-range shot to pull, and the substitute is good at defense. Ryan Bowen, who has been teammates with Guo Xu in the Lakers.

The Rockets' weakness is still the point guard. Although they had no energy to dig Bob Sula, Van Gundy let him defend the black hole, and his movement speed was too slow and he could easily be passed. Guo Xu scored 45 points and 8 assists in this game, but his teammates felt poor, and he wasted a lot of opportunities.

After defeating the Bulls, the Suns lost to the Heat away.

O'Neal, Wade, Eddie Jones and others performed well, defender Damon Jones made 4 three-pointers, won 123-116 in the end, and defeated the Suns with a tough offense.

Guo Xu won the big double-double to no avail, and the Heat's offense was even stronger. Without a Haslem Heat, they could still play. In the summer, they introduced another No. 4 player and performed well.

This person is Marcus Fizer, the Bulls' "tattoo man". He was originally selected by the Bobcats and wanted a middle-class contract, but he was given up inappropriately. What qualifications should a player who has never played in the playoffs be asked for a high salary? When the Bulls were playing badly, he averaged only 25.8 minutes at his peak, scoring 12.3 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists.

After Fizer was given up, other teams were unwilling to give him a middle class, so they finally chose to join the Heat for a basic salary. As a result, he successfully lost weight after practicing at the Heat for a while and performed well on the bench.

As a short power forward, Fizer can defend against pick-and-roll, and can also pull out the ball and shoot in the mid-range shot after pick-and-roll on the offensive end. He can occasionally play as a guest center and Baxter, two short and strong inside players.

The Suns did not lose again in March, and a classic running and bomb battle was staged at the end of the month, beating Nash's Hawks with an 8-point advantage.

Guo Xu scored 31 points and 20 assists, which is the fifth time in his career, 30+20, and continues to set a new historical record.

Nash can imitate the Suns' style of playing, but his personal ability is not as good as Guo Xu. He obviously suffers from a single fight. The Suns' inside strength is also better than the Hawks, and they win steadily with offense.

The Hawks were swept 2-0 by the Suns in the regular season, and Nash still couldn't pass Guo Xu's level unless he had better teammates.

In Guo Xu's previous life, if Nash had stronger one-on-one ability or better defense, the Suns would be able to win the championship. Due to his physical fitness, he could not dominate the court by relying on one-on-one challenge, which is not what fans said was not strong offense.

When facing Guo Xu, Nash really wanted to win but couldn't do it. Guo Xu's style obviously restrained him.

Entering the first game of April, the Suns vs. Trail Blazers.

Trail Blazers power forward Dako Milicic played for 37 minutes and scored a double-double of 25 points and 11 rebounds. His performance this season was excellent, replacing Randolph's position in his previous life. He had the right to take bold moves and undertake more offensive tasks.

The goal of the Trail Blazers this season is to play badly. The main tactic is the pick-and-roll of the "Flying Squirrels" Stadamier and Milicic. As long as the "Flying Squirrels" cannot break through, it will be passed to Milicic in the middle.

Milicic averaged 35.8 minutes per game, scored 17.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.6 blocks, and there was a vague shadow of a star. His playing style is similar to Bosh, and his physical fitness is better than Bosh, who is in the Raptors.

Currently, the Pistons fans are making Larry Brown’s call for dismissal. Milicic, a physical insider, is actually a person guarding the water dispenser on the Pistons and cannot be trained at all.

Milicic's statistics this season are better than Rashid Wallace, and they look more promising regardless of age or quality.

The Suns continued to win this month, and almost all teams could not stand it. They swept the Mavericks and the Spurs two Texas powerhouses.

On April 7, the Suns lost to the Grizzlies away and lost their seventh game. They won the subsequent game, with a final record of 75 wins and 7 losses. The Suns won the best regular season record for two consecutive seasons, and Guo Xu won all the Western Conference Player of the Month Awards.
