Legend of Tomorrow

? During the Western team training, Guo Xu chatted with Yao Ming on the sidelines in Chinese and made his own request. He hoped that Yao Ming would help pull out the cover data at night, and suggested that Yao Ming throw a three-pointer in the game.

This season, Yao Ming's style of play is unpretentious. Back and forth is hooking and turning to shoot. For him, a three-point shot is considered a performance. As a result, Yao Ming said that he hasn't practiced a three-pointer in the Rockets in the past two years, and his shooting percentage is uncertain.

Guo Xu couldn't help but made comments, and couldn't bear to watch him waste his talent. "Brother, you must not lose what you were good at in the past. You can shoot and break. You can't just beat the low post and turn the shot. Don't let Fan Bale hurt you."

"Not so exaggerated?" Yao Ming smiled bitterly. He was also a little disgusted with Van Gundy, but he wouldn't say it.

All Rockets players feel that Van Gundy is too strict for training and very rigid for rotation.

Guo Xu sighed and laughed: "At least I think Rudy's (Tang Shuai) tactics are more suitable for you, but you didn't have enough ball rights."

Yao Ming frowned, whispering, "He wants me to gain weight, do you think I should listen?"

"I think you should refuse, if he forces you to gain weight, you should force the palace to the management and make a deal. So that your career can last for a long time. I have told you before, your thick legs and lower limbs can be seen at a glance "Which is better for gaining weight? If you gain weight and your feet and knees are under increased pressure, that is an adventure."

"Thank you for your proposal." Yao Ming nodded and made up his mind. He doesn't want to gain weight, but his own speed is already very slow. How can he prevent a small defender from hitting a pick-and-roll while gaining weight?

Van Gundy's previous life increased Yao Ming's weight from 132 kg to more than 140 kg, which seems to be not much. In fact, it is a devastating blow to his height. His dominance hasn't become much stronger, but he gained more possessions after Francis and Mobley left, and the more shots he scored, the more efficient the difference was.

In the late Van Gundy's time, the Rockets' ball tactics completely abolished Yao's name. He had to keep running back.

By the time Adelman came, it would be unrealistic to let Yao Ming lose weight again. He had already finalized and eventually lost his injury. Of course, part of the reason is that he played for the national team in the summer, leading to physical overdraft. It is really a pity that Yao Ming retired after only seven seasons in the NBA. Guo Xu hopes to help him change his destiny.

A large number of Chinese fans started to pay attention to the NBA because of Yao Ming. When he retired, the NBA had not played with Chinese players for a long time. Chinese fans would have less fun watching the game and there would be no "Chinese home team" anymore.

After another chat, Yao Ming and Guo Xu practiced pick-and-roll and catch the ball. He agreed with Guo Xu's request and was willing to help brush the data.

Yao Ming did not have the idea of ​​grabbing MVP, neither did McGrady. The Rockets duo came to relax. Guo Xu didn't need to ask McGrady. He knew it by looking at him. When he was training, he seemed to be able to fall asleep at any time, as if touched by the "Mantis Girl".

Guo Xu's biggest competitor is Kobe Bryant. He should also have the right to play off the bench. If the condition is good, the data will not be worse. Kobe's problem is that he is not good at communicating with people. He will not pull gangs to find someone to pass to him. He can only rely on himself. And Guo Xu and three Sun teammates plus Yao Ming, this is a set of lineups.

On the evening of the 21st, the All-Star game started.

Before the game, experts predicted that the strength of the east and the west was equal. The east is expected to end a losing streak this time, because after the sharks swim east, the inside of the east is not as bad as it used to be.

As a result, the Western Conference led 21 points in only half of the game. Guo Xu and Lei Allen made three-pointers wildly. The position of the West was very efficient in pick and roll offense.

Duncan performed best in the first half, scoring 15 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists in 17 minutes, and made a 3-pointer in the middle.

If he goes on like this, Duncan's brave 80% will get the MVP. When Yao Ming comes off the court, his cooperation with Guo Xu is also very good. The timing of the cover is perfect, the catching shot is accurate, and he can hit the air, 7 of 10 shots. .

However, Popovich did not want to let his disciples stand out. In the second half, he gave Duncan a cold bench and gave other inside playing time. Of course, he didn't do this to help Guo Xu glory, but he wanted Spurs players to save their physical strength for the regular season and consume more opponents' physical strength. He was cursing the opponent's injury silently in his heart.

Generally speaking, academic coaches are player killers, and Larry Brown ’s Popovich is actually stubborn and terrible.

Popovich is known for turning points into gold. Some people who have been abandoned in other teams and can't even hit the ball are playing in the hands of Popovich. In fact, if you want to come to Popovich, you need more systematic players. If you join the Spurs, most of the players will be self-defeating.

This old man has always disliked the fact that someone is too ostentatious, so he replaced Duncan, fearing that Duncan would be disappointed when he got the AMVP. Back to the Spurs, he wanted to use his personal abilities to solve the battle and affect teamwork.

This year's Spurs lineup is very good. Players cooperate with each other and are better than last season.

In the second half, the situation could not be rewritten. After playing the pick-and-roll, Guo Xu broke through to attract the inside to change the defense. As long as the pass is passed, the inside players can get a good outing.

If Guo Xu does not change defense, he will break through very fast after getting rid of it. Even if Iverson catches up on the weak side, he can single-play, change to a retreat shot and turn to retreat. live.

At the end of the quarter, the West Force always maintained a lead of more than 20 points. The East Force had no hope of returning to the sky. Eventually, the West defeated the East by 141 to 117 and continued their winning streak.

With the playing time of the two being about the same, Guo Xu finished exploding Iverson, and everyone is used to it.

He made 10 of 16 shots, 11 of 6 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, scored 30 points, 12 assists and 3 steals; Iverson made only 4 of 13 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, 12 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists 4 steals.

The combination of the inside and outside of the Western force is better. Ray Allen made 5 of 11 3-pointers, Joe Johnson made 3 of 6 3-pointers, and Kobe Bryant made 2 of 5 ...

The big men in the West also have a stable mid-range shooting ability. Stoudemire, Nowitzki, Garnett, and Gasol are sure to catch and shoot. It doesn't matter if Duncan doesn't play in the second half.

In contrast to the Eastern Forces, O'Neal and Ben Wallace lacked range in the center position. O'Neal had no dead ends in the midrange shot ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ But he was too bad to fight against a group of star power forwards in the west.

In Guo Xu ’s previous life, this All-Star game was more alternative. None of the stars scored 20. The Eastern team won the ball. Iverson scored 15 points, 9 assists and 5 steals with a 30.8% field goal percentage.

The Eastern Force can win by relying on the unreasonable lineup in the West. The team has only Nash as a point guard and has not played much time. When starting McGrady and Kobe played together without a point guard, the big man Iverson would be more difficult.

In this life, Iverson can only eat deflated, shooting is still not allowed, and breakthrough is very difficult. As Guo Xu was ready to grab the MVP, the defensive end did not deliberately release water, and Iverson could hardly get rid of him without looking for cover.

After Guo Xu went off, Bryant played very hard. He became angry after he became a substitute. He wanted to prove himself. He scored the second highest 24 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists in the game. Take advantage.

Because Guo Xu is the ticket king, the coach arranged for him the most 31 minutes of playing time. Relying on the large double-double data, Guo Xu won the AMVP for the third time and tied Jordan's number of times. Only Petit was ahead of him.
