Chapter 654 [Don't beware of morale, lazy to train teammates]

Kobe cursed Bogut in his heart, are you SB? If you don’t pull it out, I may be double-teamed by a big man if I force it.

What can Bogut do? He is helpless. He has just joined the NBA and has little knowledge. In his understanding, he always thought that the low position belongs to the big man. The coach did not warn him over and over again that it was wrong to stand in the low position.

Bogut University was used to playing at low posts. Before, the coach asked him to go to the middle to cover his teammates, and he tried to catch and shoot or support the attack, without complaints. But now the coach thinks that Odom is better in the middle, so where can he stand? He doesn't know where he should stand.

He couldn't guarantee his shooting percentage even if he received the ball. In the draft, people said he was "White Duncan" and he made a boastful point, and he made much fewer mid-range shots than Duncan.

Data shows that his scoring mainly depends on his basket offense and close-range two points, that is, his turn and shooting with a strong attack at low post. As for Bogut's mid-range shooting, the 40.5% shooting rate seems to be pretty good, but he hits 0.2 goals with 0.5 shots. He usually won't choose to shoot mid-range shots if he is not an open position.

Bogut is currently averaging 30.4 minutes per game, with only 7.7 points, 9.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1 block. The only thing that is outstanding is his shooting percentage of 54.4%.

In the past, Bo Guter joined the Bucks not so bad because the low post belonged to him, but he made few moves. Mo Williams and Michael Reed both like to "shoot birds randomly", shoot three-pointers or jump shots with one step, and don't pass the ball to the inside. In the Lakers, Bo Guter has become an alternative existence that overlaps with Kobe's position.

Odom was unable to break through or shoot easily by Haslem, and passed it to Parker on the right. The latter had a height advantage against Guo Xu, and easily lobted the ball to Kobe at the low post, forming a triangle with Vujasic at the bottom corner.

Kobe played singles on his back, leaned against Bale twice, turned to the baseline and leaned back to jump shot, and made a picture-like hit with two points under interference. 0 to 2.

The Suns attacked, the players pulled away, David Lee did not come out at the baseline, and the left side attracted the defense, and Haslem was 60 degrees on the left. Blake dribbled the ball to the front court and passed it to Guo Xu on the right side, waiting for the opportunity, the right side was the weak side, and Bale was in the bottom corner.

Guo Xu received the ball and moved to 50 degrees, maintaining a very subtle distance. Vujasic and Kobe can help defend double-teams, but double-teams have to run 2 or 3 steps to free up the people they defend.

Guo Xu leaned on Parker with his back, shook his left shoulder and made a false move to break through the bottom line. Then he turned to the right and took the ball to catch it and took the step away, and distanced him from Parker.

Guo Xu attracted Vujasic to make up for defense and failed to make a strong shot in the bull horn position, and passed it to Blake. The latter caught the ball in the middle without any interference, and the ball entered the net hollow. 3 to 2.

Blake and Payton have two advantages: one is that they have good physical fitness in their youth, and the other is that they have much stronger three-pointers. Since joining the Suns in 2003, he has been practicing three-pointers hard and has a high open shooting percentage.

The Lakers attacked, Parker was very worried after dribbling the ball through halftime because Guo Xu retreated to the free throw line, his eyes were floating straight, and he didn't know what was going on.

Parker suspected that he made a move now, and Guo Xu, who was distracted from the ball, might not know that he had made a shot. This was an insult.

How could Parker not shoot this kind of opportunity? Not only does he have a distance, but he also has an advantage in his height of 193cm. What are you afraid of? Guo Xu didn't even stretch out his casual hand and the ball went in. 3 to 5.

Barkley said: "Jason doesn't take his opponent seriously at all. He's too arrogant. I support Parker to beat him up!"

Smith smiled and said, "The last time he won the Lakers too quickly. Today, Jason let people go to the spot when they came up. Others don't defend seriously are defensive black holes. Jason's failure to defend can improve morale, and Suns fans are applauding."

"NBA has received applause in history. He is really the only one." Barkley sighed: "When I was young, I was slower in defending the pick-and-roll, and many people questioned my defensive attitude. It was too unfair."

Nearly half of the Suns fans at the scene were applauding Guo Xu's missed people. This is really terrible. After all, the pot is 6 billion, the base is too large, and the IQ is uneven. There is a theorism about Guo Xu on the Internet, which makes people stunned.

Guo Mi analyzed that Guo Xu deliberately let down the defensive end in the regular season. It was not that he lacked physical strength and wanted to keep his strength on the offensive end, but that he used this method to train his teammates' assisting defense ability and concentration on the court to prepare for the playoffs.

Jason Guo, who is as thick as a city wall, feels a little embarrassed to see this analysis.

The Suns attacked, Blake dribbled the ball and passed it to Guo Xu in half. Parker didn't step forward and pressed. He drove two steps and just came out of the Suns' bid and scored three-pointers. Parker stepped forward and interfered one step slower and did not jump.

The ball didn't make the ball and bounced far away. Haslem grabbed the frontcourt rebound and distributed the ball to Blake again.

Blake passed the ball to Guo Xu again. He raised the ball and took a step outside the three-point line to attract Parker to defend, afraid that he would shoot again. Now each team has a consensus on defending Guo Xu. No matter how far away from the basket, he must not let him take action easily, otherwise his shooting percentage will scare you to death.

He dribbled the ball under his crotch to his left hand, changed direction to the right and passed Parker, entered the penalty area in the middle, Bogut made up for defense, Guo Xu passed the ball to the left, David Lee took a step to catch the ball, and easily scored a layup. 5-5.

When the Lakers attacked, Guo Xu let Parker go two more steps away, stepped on the free throw line to defend, and waited for someone to make a choice. "If you don't accept it," it is actually impossible to prevent it, not to prevent it. Guo Xu is now really "Wu Guo is not guarded".

This is also a psychological war. Guo Xu understands Kobe's personality, so Kobe must be very uncomfortable in this situation.

Kobe faces much tighter defense. If his teammates cannot stand up and score points with such a good opportunity, he will be furious; on the contrary, if his teammates score more than him, he will be uncomfortable. He hates others stealing the limelight, especially Parker.

Parker is the hardest choice. The Lakers' triangular offensive tactics have always been around the stars. If he, as the point guard, does not make a complete shot, and neither Kobe nor Odom will catch the ball, it will disrupt the Lakers' habitual game rhythm. At the same time, this tests Parker's mentality, his always weak points.

After being severely abused by Guo Xu last season, Parker did not dare to try to play Guo Xu with the ball in the first game. If he had an open position today, he would not dare to shoot and would hurt the team's morale, and Kobe would definitely hate him even more.

Parker also knew the boss's temper and was really hard to serve, so he decided to take action because it was an open space.

Unfortunately, he is not an excellent three-pointer. His three-point shooting percentage this season is only 36.4%, and he averages 1.3 shots per game. This time, Parker failed to seize the opportunity at the open position. The ball pops up and the rebound was grabbed by David Lee.

When returning to defense, Parker felt a little guilty and he didn't dare to look in Kobe's direction.

Guo Xu looked at David Li, clapped him twice, and pointed at Blake, and David Li passed the ball over.

Blake dribbled the ball and Guo Xu slowly passed the half with David Li. This time Parker followed him tightly. Guo Xu suddenly found no ball outside the right three-point line to cover the empty cut. Blake saw the opportunity and passed the ball over.

Parker is a tall point guard, and he is slow to catch the ball. Guo Xu got rid of the ball and accelerated to pass Odom in the middle and broke into the penalty area. He attracted Bogut to make up for defense and then divided the ball to 50 degrees on the left. Haslem received the ball at an open position and easily made a move, 7-5.
