Chapter eight hundred and forty-ninth [can't escape, just like paying taxes]

Many players can practice 3 points well, but the team undertakes different tasks, so they start with less or no shots.

Millsap, Gasol Jr., Brooke Lopez, Griffin... In Guo Xu's previous life, there were many examples of such inside players suddenly becoming three-pointers. As long as the coach arranges tasks for them, they can vote.

Millsap scored 28.11 seconds in 2010, leading the Jazz to reverse the Big Three Heat feat. He scored 46 points and 9 rebounds in that game, and made three hollow three-pointers in a row at the end of the final quarter, and scored a buzzer-beating tip-in to drag the game into overtime.

After Millsap joined the Suns, he has been practicing three-pointers hard in the past two years and has trained his accurate head in advance. If he does not have a three-point shooting range, he will completely overlap with Haslem's style on the court, and it will be difficult to get a chance to play. He is forced.

Now, he has become a longer shooting range than Haslem, and he dares to shoot at open positions, and his three-point shooting rate on both sides and the middle can reach about 50% during training. He cannot be so accurate during the game, but with 33.3% of his opponents, he cannot let him go at will. Moreover, with celebrity teammates, he is the easiest to get an open position and get a mobile phone.

So D'Antoni asked Haslem to play as a substitute, which was as strong as defense and rebounding, and Millsap's ability to withdraw air from the offensive end was stronger.

When the Spurs attacked, Guo Xu still let Parker take two steps to defend against breaking but not shooting, which made the Spurs inside player's cover invalid. Once Parker breaks through, he will be entangled by Guo Xu and can only pass the ball.

Granger gave a lob from the right to Duncan, who singled out against Sir and turned around and shot. 3-2.

The Suns attacked, and Smith covered the cover as soon as the halfway point was passed. Guo Xu changed direction with the ball, and Thomas was forced to defend himself from the three-point line. If Guo Xu was given plenty of space, he would shoot three-pointers one or two meters away from the three-point line. There were so many Spurs who saw this.

Guo Xu took it to the left and turned halfway, quickly transferred the ball to Millsap, who was running to 70 degrees outside the three-point line on the right.

Millsap threw the ball as the coach arranged, and Duncan could only save it and interfere. He was slower and did not block it, but the ball was off and Granger grabbed the rebound.

The Spurs attacked, and the players passed the ball several times without any time. Granger used his height advantage to fight Roy with an emergency stop and missed the jump shot. Millsap grabbed the rebound and made a pass to counterattack.

Guo Xu quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and a simple change of direction and back shot missed a three-pointer under Parker's interference, and Duncan got a rebound.

Parker failed to make a breakthrough, and the Spurs could only fight one-on-one again. Duncan singled Sir turned to the middle and hooked his hand. The Suns fought back. Guo Xu fought Parker again and missed the three-pointer against him. Bowen picked up the rebound.

Guo Xu is too confident and his playing style is a bit simple. He doesn't think it's important. As long as he finds the feel, he can lead the team to win.

Parker's positional breakthrough failed to get rid of Guo Xu, and the ball was handed to Duncan again, who formed a triangle with Bowen and Granger on the right. Sir Little defended, and Duncan's turn and shot was tilted again, and his hand felt bad today.

Last season, Duncan still averaged nearly 20+10 per game, but in fact his strength has begun to decline. The problem that troubles him is still plantar fasciitis. His explosive power has decreased and his movements have slowed down. He cannot attract double-teams at low positions like he did at his peak. Opponents usually choose to defend him alone and strictly prevent others.

At this time, Parker and Ginobili's role became very critical, and the team needed them to break through. **Vic was used to letting Ginobili be the sixth man, but in fact, it was not appropriate to play like this against the Suns. No one could break through and pass the ball at the start.

The Suns counterattacked, and Guo Xu dribbled the ball from the frontcourt in a direction and dribbled behind the back, and took a step back and shot a three-pointer to face Parker. Parker was not completely shaken away, but the ball was invalid in the seal. 6 to 2.

Guo Xu did not celebrate when he returned to defense, and he looked as if he was taken for granted. He should find his feelings after shooting three balls.

Smith commented: "Jason is very sure in front of the three-point line. He can also make a shot without double-teaming this distance. Other Spurs players can't watch the fun. The last playoff was because he had a finger injury, and now he is healed."

Barkley smiled and said, "I think he will definitely be able to play pretty data today."

Many people understand Guo Xu's mentality. He can be selfless, but the highly anticipated game will often focus on and work hard. The match against the Spurs is a live broadcast across the United States, which is a good opportunity for him to show off.

The Spurs attacked, Parker forced a breakthrough and missed the ball when Guo Xu was throwing. Xiao Si grabbed the rebound and his teammates were about to get off.

Roy dribbled the ball through halftime and passed it to Guo Xu. He beat Parker one-on-one again on the right. He dribbled the ball under his crotch and gave the left hand no stop. He immediately dribbled the ball behind his back and then gave it a slight pause.

Parker followed the first step, Guo Xu held the ball with his right hand and changed direction to the left and passed Parker, breaking into the penalty area.

The Suns had three people pulling away from the periphery, and Duncan could only defend the penalty area. When Guo Xu was about to hit him, he passed the ball to the left. Xiao Si took the ball and jumped up, and scored a one-handed spike. 8 to 2.

Guo Xu's assists have reached the level of being at will, and he can always find passes. His secret is to dribble the ball towards someone. The closer the distance is, the less the opponent can't intercept the ball. The flexibility of a big player is completely incomparable to him.

The Spurs began to play in the inside, and the two insides pulled out to cover the defender, giving up space. Granger received three threats on the right side of the ball frame, and then stepped forward and changed to the bottom line and stopped and jumped to the jump. 8 to 4.

Granger is taller than Roy and has a lot of weight. The Suns have weaknesses in defense at this position.

When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu dribbled the ball and Xiao Si gave him another cover. The two ran forward one by one and the other. Xiao Si took the initiative to block the defender, while Guo Xu observed the angle of the opponent being blocked to choose a direction to break through.

When his dribbling skills reach his level, he will subconsciously make movements when he wants to push his ball to the side. The ball will be stuck to his hands. If the opponent does not fight with his body, he will not be able to make mistakes.

Guo Xu chose to walk on the right side, and Thomas changed defense and followed. He just moved one step and was blocked by Millsap. Although Millsap was not tall but only 203cm, he weighed 112 kilograms, and his shoulders were wide and thick back could block people.

Duncan had to defend himself, Guo Xu dribbled the ball to 45 degrees to attract the inside to replace defense and Parker to chase the defense, and passed the ball to the middle. Millsap received the ball and forced the basketball to enter the basketball with Thomas. 10-4.

All the Suns' goals at the opening were related to Guo Xu. He scored 3 points and sent 3 assists. Parker has not yet obtained any data, and only once made a shot.

The Spurs fans are in a stable mood. It is normal for Guo Xu to beat Parker. They have to see each other many times every season. This is something that the Spurs cannot escape, just like paying taxes.

Duncan beat Sir, received the ball from the low post on the left, leaned back twice and turned to the middle to hook the ball. 10-6.

These are all expected goals. D'Antoni was not in a hurry at all on the sidelines. He just wanted to compete with his opponents in attack, firmly believing that the core competition between the two sides must win the Suns.

When the Suns attacked, Guo Xu played pick-and-roll in the first half, moved horizontally and avoided Parker on the left, attracting Thomas to replace defense, and Sir was determined to stand in the middle.

During the preseason, Sir made a lot of three-pointers. The Spurs players studied him before the game and believed that he could not be spared outside the three-point line.

This time Parker hesitated for a while to chase the defense. Guo Xu made a small move from the left, dribbling the ball from his crotch and changed direction to the left to retreat, pulled a position with Thomas, and made a three-pointer.
