Chapter 776 [Attentive! The previous prediction was too conservative]

One minute later, Coach Brown requested another timeout. Bookmark this site, he overturned the arrangement of the last timeout, the team changed to joint defense, and the players defended Guo Xu on the periphery, trying to limit others. He believed that Guo Xu had an injury on his leg, his speed was not fast, his singles efficiency decreased, and he still had to compete in the game.

If Guo Xu attracts double-teams to assist teammates, then the Cavaliers will be dead. Other Suns players have good scoring abilities, especially Sir and Marion, who have 20+ abilities. The Trident opens the Cavaliers will be doomed to end up with a crushing defeat.

This is not counting Roy on the bench. After winning the best rookie, Roy was blown up by the media and is now the fourth scoring point for the Suns.

The game continued, and the Suns adapted to the Cavaliers' rhythm after only two rounds. Guo Xu did not make a strong shot from the outside. He held the ball and played pick-and-roll with Thomas, and had three choices.

One is that he moves sideways and takes a quick shot. If Gibson is blocked, Marshall has to switch defense and keep a distance from him to interfere with the shooting.

Second, he attracted Marshall to pass the ball to the middle after replacing defense, and Thomas could catch the ball. Gibson was only 188m tall and lacked arm span. The ability to interfere with the big man's shooting is not much better than Guo Xu.

Third, Guo Xu held the ball and waited for Marshall to return to the position. Gibson passed the ball to Sir S. After chasing and defending, he formed a strong side with Bale, playing a triangle offense, and helping Sir S. create a single-on-one Boozer.

After the Cavaliers' joint defense, the Suns Triangle attacked more, and Sir became the protagonist on the court. He took the ball in one step outside the penalty area on the right and threatened with three face frames. Boozer stood far away and he shot mid-range shot. He defended more by stepping outside and then changed direction and broke through to attack the basket.

Boozer's defense has always been criticized. He has no height in the area of ​​the defense, lacks blocking ability, and slow movement of the outside line, so he is called a defensive black hole. He can only rely on his body and small movements to defend. Si is better at defending than him.

It is difficult for Cavaliers to double-team Xiao Si. He has to empty Guo Xu or Bale on the strong side. Isn’t this preventing two points into three points?

If Gibson hadn't had the eye-catching performance and made two three-pointers on the run, the Suns would have been able to beat the Cavaliers in one quarter. They led 40 to 29.

Guo Xu did not make any moves in the second half, and focused on assists, scoring a double-double with 11 points and 10 assists in a single quarter, with a shooting percentage of 100%.

The Cavaliers management does not regret letting go of veteran Eric Snow. Guo Xu uses the organization-oriented style, and Snow is still useless. His speed is getting slower and slower, and it is no longer suitable for defensive point guards, and it is even more impossible to block the pass route.

The five Suns in the second quarter were Guo Xu, Roy, Parker, Ariza, and Valaijo, and they were attack-oriented.

D'Antoni targeted the Cavaliers' defensive system, and wanted to increase the speed to the fastest counterattack. He also left a big man to play pick-and-roll in the positional battle, and Haslem continued to guard the water dispenser.

If the Cavaliers go to Bidlins, Valejo can push him outside the penalty area to defend himself. The Cavaliers sent Daz to rest for a while, and the offensive end is easy. Valejo pulled out to cover it and forced Daz to replace the defense, not to prevent three-pointers from throwing on the outside.

There is no loss in the finals. D'Antoni cannot completely give up defense and let the opponent play casually. If he let Haslem play the guest center, then defensive coach Thibodeau would be very uncomfortable to watch. Haslem can shoot mid-rangely when attacking, but his figure is not suitable for pick-and-roll, and his tactical role is average.

Five Cavaliers: "Flying Squirrel" Stadameer, Jaylen Ross, Pavlovic, James, and Ilgoskas.

As soon as he saw the people who supported the Cavaliers on the lineup, he felt that it was going to be bad. James was going to play all over the game and took the substitute, but Guo Xu didn't even have a rest, so this was not easy to deal with.

After the last round of the series, all fans believed that the Suns, with Guo Xu and without Guo Xu, were two teams. As long as he appeared and attacked, he would be particularly smooth and the players would not play randomly.

Guo Xu was asking for his own request to not rest. He didn't consume much energy in the last quarter. The person who played with the ball in the triangular offense was Xiao Si. He didn't run much, so he stood on the outside and waited for the opportunity. Guo Xu was not active enough on the defensive end, otherwise how could Gibson easily make two three-pointers? He was Buddhist and defended and did not fit in with his body at once.

Before the game started, Guo Xu was ready to assist. When he couldn't run fast and jump high, his goal was to break all assist records in the finals. This was the best opportunity. Once his legs and feet were fine, he would not pass the ball so resolutely.

He can organize attacks against Daz's slow speed, and it will be difficult for Daz to play. If the Suns can play against the opponent's center with an annual salary of tens of millions of yuan and is forced to guard the water dispenser for a few minutes, it is also a very morale thing.

The Suns attacked first, Guo Xu led the ball to Roy over the half, and a chance appeared in the first round. Roy ran back from the baseline to 70 degrees on the left, and Valaijo gave him an unball cover.

The Cavaliers are joint defense, James is responsible for the baseline defense, and his strength can resist people and protect the backcourt rebounds. Roy has an advantage when he goes to the big Z side, and he does not change defense in time, and Ross's pursuit speed is also very slow.

Roy made a comfortable jump shot from a three-pointer with a free kick, 43-29, and Guo Xu made the 11th assist.

When the Cavaliers attacked, James was still the same as before when he faced Ariza, and he forced his breakthrough with the ball.

The two have a connection. Ariza always works hard when facing James, and follows closely without fear of confrontation. He uses his long arms to interfere and slow down his speed. Valaijo releases the big z to double-team.

James's passing vision was blocked, and he chose to pull the ball and layup missed under the interference of the two. Valaijo picked up the backcourt rebound and passed it to Guo Xu who was retracing.

Guo Xu did not stop receiving the ball, and a long football quarterback-style pass to the frontcourt with one hand, accurately delivered it to Roy who was about to get off. Roy had no defense when receiving the ball, and took two steps and one-handed dunk to enter.

45 to 29, Guo Xu had the 12th assist.

When signing last summer, the Cavaliers and the Suns were not the same idea. The Suns didn't like to find famous veterans, while the Cavaliers signed Stadamier and Ross.

Last season, Ross averaged 12.3 points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, which was exchanged for high shots. He could no longer run. Although he was only 34 years old this year, he would definitely retire after the end of the season.

In the summer, Ross was eager to join the Suns, and the Suns management didn't want him and was completely uninterested. There were so many swingers in the team, and he joined the water dispenser.

The only role of Flying Squirrels is to open the shooting, or to defend the black hole. The impact of Eddie House's injury on the Cavaliers is obvious.

The Cavaliers played pick-and-roll, Roy shrank his wing to assist in defense, Flying Squirrel passed the ball with the opportunity, and Ross made an open jump shot and made a three-pointer. 45-32.

The veteran scored a goal but no one blamed Roy. This was the coach's arrangement. The person who seemed to be the least threatening on the field took action and defended the penalty area to defend James.

This defensive strategy is still a psychological battle. If James becomes a substitute, his mentality will be easily affected. Don’t he want to score more points when facing the substitute?

When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu first passed it to Roy, and then ran from the middle to the bottom corner on the left. Just as Si Xiao finished covering Roy, he gave him another unball cover.

Roy transferred the ball over and the three formed a strong side.

If Daz doesn't save the ball, otherwise Guo Xu will be empty. As soon as he comes out, Guo Xu takes the ball and changes direction and takes it one step to pass the ball into the middle. Xiao Sikki cuts the ball and chops the ball with one hand. James lets go Ari and makes a quick defense.

47 to 32, Guo Xu had the 13th assist.

Barkley said: "Our previous predictions were too conservative. I think he could break the assist record in three quarters, and he could assist more than 30 times in the game."
