After receiving the ball, Parker was outbound by Guo Xu after receiving it, so he was not easy to do the moves.

Not only did Guo Xu not give Parker a quick phone call, he also planned to disrupt his dribbling rhythm. This kind of oppressive defense may cause the ball holder to make a mistake and thus launch a quick counterattack.

Guo Xu is very focused and full of energy today. On the defensive end, he is like a top student who pretends to sleep in class all semester but listens secretly. Now it is finally time to take the final exam, and it is time to put in real skills.

When Parker has room for movement, he occasionally has beautiful breakthroughs. Once he is close to his body, he can only find teammates. His passing awareness is not excellent, so he gave it to Butler nearby.

Butler dropped the ball to Kobe in the low post on the right, and Bale was defending. At this time, Parker ran to the bottom corner, and the three Lakers players formed a triangle.

This is a typical tactic for the Lakers. O'Neal attracted double teams at the low post, and it was easy to shoot when he was split. When he encountered an opponent's joint defense, the defender in the bottom corner could also get the opportunity to play the big man in a misaligned manner.

If O'Neal is not double-teamed, he will die. He will enter the penalty area and hit more than 75%, and at 79.2% at the peak. His close-range two-point shooting percentage near the penalty area line is only about 40%-45% for many seasons, and his shooting range is very short, which makes each team look for a meat shield or use double-team to push him outside the penalty area.

Kobe obviously does not have O'Neal's dominance at the low post. His opponent can choose to double-team or not. The "Peter" who practices his strength cannot crush his opponent like the "Big Shark".

Kobe leaned against Bale twice, shook his right shoulder slightly, turned to the bottom line and forced a breakthrough. At this time, Valejo double-teamed the basket. Not only did Kobe not have room to shoot, but he didn't even find space for passing.

He took the ball and squeezed into the gap between the two, giving Bogut on the left. Valejo turned around and guarded him. Because Bogut lacked range, he did not take a shot immediately after receiving the ball, and took a step forward and threw a close range shot. Under the interference of Valejo, who was not inferior to his height and weight, he missed.

Guo Xu followed Parker on the outside and was ready to make a fast break at any time. He was very relieved to his teammates' defense. Even if Valaijo faced Duncan, he could withstand it, let alone the "White Duncan" who has become a parallel product?

Many people from the two teams gathered at the basket, Haslem pushed the ball out, Howard picked up the rebound and passed it to Guo Xu immediately.

In the frontcourt, Guo Xu slowed down one meter outside the three-point line on the right, held the ball in his right hand, and moved his left hand closer. Parker hurriedly stopped and took a big step out to interfere with the shooting. He was afraid of shooting. Guo Xu's shooting was a conventional weapon in every game.

However, this time Guo Xu made a false move to worship Buddha, and his right hand changed direction and passed Parker in the middle. He stopped in a hurry just in front of the three-point line and made a jump shot.

He was sure to win this ball, and he entered the net with a hollow. 3 to 0.

The Lakers attacked, Parker was pressed by Guo Xu in the first half and passed it to Kobe.

Kobe dribbled the ball and attacked Odom in the middle, and played pick-and-roll with Odom in the middle. Haslem replaced defense very quickly, maintaining one step and more than one distance to prevent breakthroughs and interfering with shooting. Kobe dribbled the ball to the right horn position, and Bale caught up and empty Odom.

Kobe scored in the middle, Odom's open jump shot missed the basket, and Valejo grabbed the rebound.

By this time, each team had no secrets. The two teams played four games in the regular season in the same zone. The Suns Scouts had already collected the data of Lakers players very comprehensively. Each player's strengths and weaknesses can be analyzed using data.

The scouts of each team of NBA may not have a correct vision in the draft, because NCAA's defensive strength, skills and tactics cannot be compared with NBA. If the player data is good, they may not be able to adapt to NBA. However, in terms of collecting NBA player information, the scouts are very professional.

Now that the Internet is developed, NBA data website will count players' shooting positions, hit rate, shooting hot zone, etc., which saves scouts a lot of trouble.

Odom's shooting percentage this season is only 40%, averaging 1.8 shots per game, accounting for 14.7% of the shots. It's no big deal to put him at a high position. Even if he shoots too much, there is no threat. Odom's shooting percentage of free throw line and mid-range shots on both sides has dropped by 33.8%, which is even less fearful.

This is why Odom cannot become an All-Star. He is very comprehensive, but he has no tricks. If he had Bosh and David West's ability to shoot in the mid-range shot would be great.

In the Suns position battle, Guo Xu played pick-and-roll with Valecho from outside the three-point line in the middle, lowered the center of gravity and changed direction, held the ball and rushed to the weak side on the right with full speed.

All teams were uncomfortable when encountering this move. Valaijo lacked range and could empty the outside, but Guo Xu would not consider passing it to him. It would be enough that there would be no double-team in front of Guo Xu's weak side. Parker ignored Parker's pursuit because he couldn't turn back.

Odom switched defense a little slower and was forced to pass by Guo Xu by speed. He rushed into the basket and attracted Bogut to make up for defense but failed. He played the ball high and picked the ball away from the block, and the ball fell into the basket. 5 to 0.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe decided to play singles when receiving the ball, and the coach asked him to attract double-teams to pass the ball, but the opponent did not have double-teams at all.

Kobe made a step from the right, Bale kept his distance and lowered his center of gravity, and made a breakthrough route, allowing him to take a shot away from the basket. Kobe made a jump shot in the three-point line and missed under interference, and Haslem grabbed the rebound.

The Suns fought back. Seeing that the Lakers players were in place, Guo Xu waved his hand to let his teammates pull him away and fight Parker one-on-one.

The Lakers didn't dare to give him a chance to fight one-on-one. Butler came up to form a double team. Guo Xuyun passed the ball with one step. Howard easily hit a mid-range shot from the left bull horn position. 7 to 0.

The coaching staff wants to help Guo Xu reach 40+ per game. Howard doesn't have much ball rights, but his scoring efficiency is very high. Compared with the league's top swingers, he averaged 16.8 points per game and shot 47.8% from the field.

The Lakers attacked, Kobe played Bale with the ball, and the right side's low post jump shot finally opened. 7-2.

In the Suns' attack, Guo Xu attracted double teams outside the three-point line to distribute them to Howard, who was on the left side of the game and made a quick stop and jump shot easily. 9 to 2.

Jackson shook his head on the sidelines, Guo Xu played singles in the middle, and the strong side players doubled him, Howard was the second scoring point, and he could shoot mid-range shots when receiving the ball, which attracted big men to make up for defense and could break through. The weak side players doubled Guo Xu was even worse, and he was prone to three-pointers from the base corner.

The Lakers are not afraid to let Guo Xu play singles. He is too powerful in one-on-one matches, and he can guarantee a shooting percentage in every position. He can attract double teams outside the three-point line in the regular season. He has scored 20+ in several games, and three-point shots account for half of the total shots. At the end, he looks at the overall shooting percentage of 49.4%.

This is the role of a superstar. No player can do this at this point in Guo Xu. In the future, Curry's shooting accuracy can be compared with him, and his ability to break through points is also inferior.

Kobe's ability to attract double-teams is much worse than Guo Xu. The Suns rely on Bale's single defense at mid- and long distances, and no one assists in defense. Before the game, Jackson's plan to arrange for Kobe to attract double-teams to pass the ball was not easy to achieve.

Triangle offense can help Kobe create a one-on-one chance, but this falls into the Suns' defensive rhythm. The Suns' man is aiming to make Kobe single.

Kobe once again chose to break through with the ball, and was double-teamed at the basket. He did not find any room to be assigned to Bogut, and it was passed to Butler. The latter defeated Howard alone and failed to break through, and then divided the Odom organization.

Odom raised high and fought, looking for Kobe who was running to the left, and Bale followed him.

After a round trip, he still played singles. The difference is who played singles. Kobe could lob the ball to Bogut on the left, but he didn't do that. The person who annoyed Kobe the most was Bogut, and the cooperation between the two had no tacit understanding.
