Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 593: 【Road of Rage】

The Lakers still have to rely on Kobe's offense. He scored 12 points in a single quarter, Bogut scored 4 points, Odom and Butler scored 2 points, and the others didn't score.

Guo Xu scored 12 points and 6 assists in a single quarter, Marion also scored 10 points, Howard 8 points, they formed a new Sun Trident, to ensure the offensive firepower.

Found that it is so easy to clean up the Lakers, Guo Xu's confidence in leading the team is getting more and more full, the Suns' current lineup is really strong, the defense is much stronger than last season, so go on, the best record in the regular season is not at all strange.

Stoudemire's defensive ability is not as good as Vallecho's. Although Stoudemire's offense is less violent, but while defending the opponent, it is not difficult for several core players to play efficiently to win the ball. "That's it.

Last season, if the Suns played their best defense in every game, more than half of the games would go into garbage time in three quarters. They played against weak players and often abused opponents.

The Lakers are stronger than their previous lives. They are still weak against the Suns. Even if Bogut just needs to exercise in the league, the strength is similar to Kwame Brown. The Lakers still have one more Butler.

The Nash-led Sun wants to win the Lakers and will definitely waste some effort. The playoffs may not be able to advance. In the first round of the previous playoffs, the two sides played a tie-break before scoring the victory and defeat. The Lakers had a 3-1 lead.

During the suspension, Kenny Smith commented: "Last season the Sun's offense was invincible, averaging 123 points per game unstoppable. This year their offense is still sharp and the defense seems to be stronger. I think this is a miracle."

Buckley laughed: "Those who say that Jason can't win without star inside can shut up. As long as he is present, teammates can play well. The truth is. I feel that Howard can average this season. 20 points, selected All-Star. "

Guo Xu had a rest in the second quarter. The coaching staff's plan was to allow him to rest for 5 or 6 minutes in the second quarter of each game. If the score could not be opened, he would play full in the second half. In this way, in a very anxious game, he had About 42 minutes of playing time, physical strength is enough to ensure the state.

Peyton came off the bench to organize the offense, and Howard returned after a short break to take the bench. The other three were Ariza, Haslem, and Valejo.

Marion and Guo Xu rested together and played together. After several seasons, the coaching staff found that they were more efficient together. If Guo Xu is not up, Marion's offensive efficiency will drop, and the speed advantage will not play well.

This is why many experts despise Marion, thinking that he is not a qualified second-hander, and the offensive ability to hold the ball is indeed not good.

Five Lakers rotation: McGinnis, Vujacic, Butler, Devin George, Bogut.

Even if he came off the bench, Bogut was not the Lakers' main point of attack, and Jackson let Butler take the bench. He knew that Butler had potential. He learned some skills with Kobe last season and improved his offensive ability.

And Butler is an iron man. He can play for a long time with plenty of energy. At a certain time, he and Kobe stagger the playing time. Not only can Kobe be rested for a while, he can also perform better.

After the substitution, the pace of the game immediately became very dull. The point guards on both sides lacked speed and could not push the fast break.

This is the Lakers' usual playing rhythm, but it doesn't mean they can get the upper hand. The Suns have little weakness on the defensive end, and the man-to-defense Lakers players play iron.

Even veteran Payton is not a weakness, he is active in defense, experienced, and has no pressure on McGinnis of the same height.

McGinnis joined the Lakers at a low salary to make fans excited for a while. Last season, he was the starting point guard in the Cavaliers, averaging 12.8 points and 5.1 assists per game, and performed well. Unexpectedly, when he joined the Lakers at the age of 31, he fell to no avail. The preseason played very badly and could only be a substitute. He scored 5 points and 2 assists.

Payton rarely shots on offense. Ron Harper, who played like the Lakers, was old and firm on the defensive end. Sun's outside players are all Payton's apprentices. He started a defensive crash course last year.

Peyton defended for nine times in the NBA and twice for the second time. He won the best defensive player. Even if he didn't score a point, the Sun was willing to give him a contract. After this season, as long as he does not retire, the Sun is willing to renew the contract.

Ariza is already an excellent blue-collar, but the defender Butler made 0 of 3 shots. Butler can gradually make three-pointers, and now he mainly relies on mid-range shots and breakthroughs to get points.

Butler's physical fitness is super strong, and the speed is often staged to break through. The head is almost flat, but Ariza is not a vegetarian. The two are about the same speed, and their height and arm length are similar. As long as they are not passed, Ariza will Can interfere with shooting.

The offensive Sun also has the upper hand. The tactics are very simple, pulling Howard off the ball and Valejo covering him.

Payton can also teach his teammates how to attack. Now Howard can not only face breakthroughs, but also practice back-playing skills. He is not inferior to Joe Johnson in terms of scoring ability, and his organization is almost like that.

Sun's shortcoming is that the rotation lineup lacks a second ball offensive point. Last season, Joe Johnson and Howard took the bench together. It is really unsolvable. This vacant management wants to make up. Unfortunately, no suitable candidate was found this summer.

Bogut only scored two points on 1 of 2 shots in the second quarter, and Valejo did not have any advantage in singles. It is no wonder that Kobe did not pass the ball. The fans at home looked all cool and cool.

Fans all have similar thoughts. The Australian champion seems to be a parallel importer? "White Duncan" is far from true Duncan.

It is still behind that the home fans collapse. The two sides have gradually replaced the main force. Jackson has helped Kobe evacuate the inside and gave him more offensive space. He has replaced Luke Wharton and Cook.

When the Sun saw Bogut off the court, the Lakers were going to fight for the small ball tactics, and they immediately replaced Valejo, with David Lee and Marion inside.

Under Guo Xu's organization, the sun quickly hit a wave of 13 to 2, widening the point difference to more than 30 points.

Among them, David Lee scored 6 points, dunked after a pick-and-roll and two shots. On the defensive end, he was responsible for fighting against people in the penalty area. After grabbing a rebound, he launched a counterattack and protected the backcourt.

Barkley commented after Jackson called the timeout: "David Lee scored in double figures last game. He played well in the night played today. Compared with Bogut, I think he is more like the champion."

Smith said: "Valecho and Ariza also played a defensive role today ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The Suns are all the first round of the last rookie or second round rookie, but there is no weak in the fight."

In the second half, Kobe Bryant, who was 31 points behind, was so anxious that he started to go crazy and took the ball to find a chance to shoot. The Sun was not included. The outside shooting point was strictly guarded. Bell, Howard and Ariza took turns to defend.

Kobe is not terrible when he scores two points. He may score 3 or 40 points, but his efficiency is almost the same as that of Bell and Howard. It's just that the Suns are playing time shared by the two, and Kobe played longer. The Sun will defend other positions, and the Lakers will definitely win after the efficiency is over.

Kobe Bryant made 6 of 9 shots, 5 of 5 free throws scored 17 points, but the points difference is still widening, the Suns can also score, and the star's hit rate is higher.

Marion made three three-pointers in a single quarter, and also scored four times in counterattacks and air cuts. He shot 7 of 9 and scored 17 points.

Guo Xu had 7 points and 7 assists, and 23 points, 16 assists and 2 steals in three quarters.

At the end of the third quarter, the Sun led 36 points, and the game entered the garbage time early ...
