Eight hundred and fifty-seventh chapter [three teams, ten consecutive victories]

The Rockets' offense was curbed because Yao Ming could not attract double-teams today.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Gasol Jr. was recognized as a parallel player in the best defensive player. He was only selected for the best defensive team that time, and he was still in the second team. However, fighting against people near the penalty area is indeed his strength, and his effect is better than Vallejo.

The newly-playing Spanoris was also restricted. Guo Xu was not overwhelmed by the main defense and allowed him to shoot from a long distance. He dared not shoot, and was not sure.

Morro's defense is more suitable for Lupps. He is 196cm tall and weighs 95 kg, which can better interfere with shooting.

Old Nelson's substitution helped the Suns. When he realized this, the score difference had widened to 16 points and dug a big hole that was difficult to climb out.

The score was 39 to 20 in the first quarter, and the Suns led. Guo Xu scored 20 points and 4 assists, scored 4 three-pointers, and missed only two goals.

The rotation lineups of both sides are very luxurious, with the Rockets five: Alstom, Span Norris, James Percy, Carl Landry, and Magloyle.

These players have their own characteristics and have proved their strength.

On one side of the Sun are Lowry, Green, Hill, Haslem, and Millsap. Four swingers about two meters plus point guards form the Death Five Smalls.

Both sides have bench bandits, and the Suns have a slight advantage. Millsap plays a guest center and has an advantage outside the three-point line. After 5 minutes, the Suns widen the gap to 22 points.

In the summer, people think that the Rockets signed Magloil to get a big advantage, but he is now useless. Not only is his offensive ability declining, but his defense is not active. Mir Sapura went out to play, and he kept a distance near the penalty area and let the opponent shoot, ready to get rebounds.

In addition to injuries, the reason for the rapid decline in the form of this excellent center was also a violent incident in 2005. Magloire's younger brother Justin was shot dead by a gangster. He fell into a state of confusion and lost confidence and motivation to play on the court.

He had been determined to return to Canada to accompany his family. He contacted the Toronto Raptors in February 2007, hoping to end his career in his hometown. He was not interested in transferring to other NBA teams in the summer, but the Raptors were not interested in him.

Maglouill averaged 10.7 minutes per game and scored 2 points and 3.3 rebounds in the first seven games. Old Nelson made Scola play a guest appearance as a center.

Both sides replaced the main players one after another, and the Suns arranged the double towers of Jordan and Smith, so that Jordan, who had not played for a minute and was in full form, was responsible for defending Yao Ming. Although he could not defend Yao Ming from jump shot, his strength was enough to push Yao Ming outside the penalty area. He could try his best to interfere with the shooting as much as possible by relying on his bounce, and he was still single-defense.

The score difference did not continue to widen, and the Suns led by 21 points to end the first half.

In the second half, the Suns, which used the "wheel battle", showed their advantages in the second half of the quarter because Yao Ming had to rest for a while. It was not a foul trouble, but his physical fitness was insufficient.

When playing against the Suns, Yao Ming is much more tired than the team that attacks the position, and he has to run back and forth. When the defender runs without the ball, he has to defend against pick-and-roll, and he is not at all wary of going out. One of Guo Xu, Moro and Roy will catch the ball and shoot three-pointers.

This made Yao Ming feel overwhelmed. The double towers on the sun occasionally came to cover the elevator door, blocking the Rockets' guards tightly. If the inside line doesn't go out, the defender will get an empty space and get a mobile phone out.

The Rockets let Scola play the center, while the Suns let Scott play the center, and the three players pulled the outside, and Guo Xu and Scott play the pick-and-roll attack. All teams know how they will play, but it is difficult to defend against. This is an enhanced version of the two Jazz pick-and-roll.

Sir Swift was more difficult to defend against last season. He was pick-and-roll outside the three-point line. Guo Xu's breakthrough attracted double-teams and he could cut empty space or catch the ball and shoot three-pointers in the middle. If the opponent did not double-team Guo Xu, the Suns' tactics were also played, and Guo Xu would get a one-on-one chance on the weak side.

The Suns' 12-0 hit the Rockets, widening the score difference to 30 points. Yao Ming no longer needs to play in the final quarter.

Yao Ming sat on the sidelines with a serious expression. The cameraman gave him a few close-ups.

Zhang Heli of CCTV5 sighed: "If you lose like this in the first game against the Suns, Yao Ming will definitely be very depressed. The two teams still won and lost each other last season, and now they have become the defending champion Rockets."

Yu Jia said: "The Suns are a three-team that restrains the Rockets. They have averaged a total of 87 shots per game so far this year, and 45 shots outside the three-point line, accounting for 51.7%. This data is too high."

In the last quarter, Lowry and Green also threw three-pointers, Moon and Haslem could not shoot, and center Jordan Jr. came up to beat the rebounds.

Both sides were relatively hard to train, so Jordan Jr. benefited from it, scoring 2 points, grabbing 8 rebounds, and blocking one. He scored 4 points, 12 rebounds and 2 blocks in 17 minutes of playing in the game.

The Suns beat the Rockets 139 to 102 in the final game with 37 points, and the team's six players scored in double digits.

In the competition between the core players of both sides, Guo Xu played for 30 minutes, made 11 of 18 shots, 7 of 11 of 3-pointers, 6 of 6 of 6 of free throws, and scored 35 points and 11 assists. Yao Ming played for 26 minutes, made 7 of 12 shots, made 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 18 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist.

Yao Ming really wants to prove that he can defeat the peak Guo Xu, but it turns out that Guo Xu is Yao Ming's nemesis and the nemesis of all high center forwards in his health.

The Rockets did not comment on the Suns at the post-match press conference, and the Suns did not add any insult to say that they would definitely beat the Rockets in the playoffs, but it is obvious that the Suns are closer to the championship than the Rockets.

Experts predict that the Suns will probably play a very long winning streak, and their next schedule will be favorable, and most of the teams will be weak.

Sure enough, the Suns easily beat the Kings 30 points away, and Guo Xu played 26 minutes to score 17 points and 17 assists.

Now Guo Xu is more likely to find his state away. His two girlfriends went to Los Angeles to live in a villa and left him behind.

Because Dadario was also famous and was stared at by reporters, the entertainment media exposed her visit to Phoenix City, and then she went to Los Angeles with Meghan. The relationship between the three was the topic of conversation for fans after dinner.

The Kings only played 3 games and completed a big deal with the Nuggets. The Nuggets sent Allen Iverson, replaced the Kings Mike Bibby, Spencer Hawys, and the Fringeman defender Will Solomon.

The Kings never won the ball after the trade. Iverson and Kevin Martin partnered on the outside, and most coaches dared not make such a decision. A transitional coach like Regg Seus was completely out of the way.

Iverson's physical fitness continued to decline. The defense end was a black hole. Guo Xu was very relaxed in a single fight. This game left him some face and passed the ball.

He knew nothing unexpected happened. This season was Iverson's last glorious season, and there was support from fans. By next season, his condition was probably without the ball.

After a day off, the Suns returned to home against the Pistons, which was another easy victory.

Guo Xu beat Starki, the Pistons' outside cornerstone, and passed the game as he wanted. He scored a big double-double with 20 points and 21 assists. The double Wallace combination showed an old look, and his strength on both offense and defense decreased a lot.

The match between Ben Wallace and Gasol Jr. was shocking. Gasol Jr. relied on his height again and again, and his shooting felt good. He played 6 of 9 shots in 30 minutes, made 9 of 11 free throws, scored 21 points, 15 rebounds and 3 blocks.

Gasol Jr. scored and rebounded a career high. Although it was related to Guo Xu's chance to pass the ball to him, the gap in the inside game was too obvious, and the salary of the two should be reversed.

Da Ben played in 28 minutes, made 1 of 2 shots, 1 of 6 free throws, and scored 3 points and 7 rebounds. He has become a well-known high-paying and low-essential player in the league.
