Legend of Tomorrow

Guoxu practiced shooting on the morning of the 4th, took a break in the afternoon, and went to participate in the team's public training class in the evening. He planned to go all out and make a splash in front of the fans.

The result was beyond Guo Xu's expectation. Phil Jackson didn't give him the chance to be limelight, and he was abused.

The Lakers allowed 1,200 season ticket holders to enter the players to watch the internal training of the Lakers. When Los Angeles Daily News introduced the training the next day, they used “They ’ve been here, they ’ve seen it, they ’re almost sleeping "Let's go" to describe the atmosphere of the fans at the scene, which also reflects the dullness of this training class.

There are staff to introduce the training of each group to the fans on the scene, as well as the reasons for the training, how to implement these contents and how to complete. These are boring, and fans are not interested. It wasn't until the end of the training session that the fans started to cheer, which was one of the few highlights.

Guo Xu failed to confront Fisher. They split their playing time and were in a team.

Jackson let Guo Xu, Leder, George, Horry, Medvedenko together to fight against the OK combination, Harper, Grant, Fox.

This is the starting point for the bench, Guo Xu and others cannot compete. If he can lead the team and play OK with the combination, he is now a superstar.

Jackson also specifically arranged for Kobe to defend Guo Xu, and Harper went to defend Leider, limiting Guo Xu's play.

Kobe is always very serious during training, devoted to the defense, Guo Xu is difficult to get rid of this recognized defensive strongman without relying on the inside cover. Even if he gets rid of it, Grant's pick-and-roll is unambiguous.

Because Grant wears goggles to participate in the competition all the year round, the Jianghu people sent the nickname "Cobra". He is a very traditional inside player. He is allowed to shoot but does not make three-pointers at all. The value is mainly reflected in screens, defense and rebounds. Although he moves slowly, he has a very good sense of defense and can stand in the hand. Guo Xu's uncomfortable distance defense breakthrough, as long as he was blocked for a second, Bryant bypassed the cover and chased up.

Kobe was a defensive player at the time. Because he was neglected by the coach when he first entered the league, Jerry West encouraged Kobe to practice defense first, so he worked **** the defensive end and consulted with "gloves" Payton.

Last season, 21-year-old Kobe became one of the league's most comprehensive outside players, defensive attitude, physical fitness, and oppression have been recognized by people.

Guo Xu hasn't played such a stifling game for a long time, and has been disturbed by Kobe. He can only look for a quick free shot or a shot. Even if he wants to make a shot, it is difficult to get back.

Guo Xu's highlight is the rapid advancement in the offensive and defensive transition. When counterattacking, he assisted Leder twice in scoring, once in assisting George in scoring, and once forcibly breaking through Harper's layup.

He also played outside the three-point line. He made 2 of 5 shots. After the pick-and-roll, he moved sideways to make a quick shot. Kobe's slow pursuit was not easy to block.

After playing a total of 20 minutes, Guo Xu scored 8 points and 4 assists, and was very dissatisfied with his performance. However, I did not know that the coaching staff had been very surprised.

NCAA and the NBA have a huge defensive intensity gap. Although NCAA often scores 5 or 60 points in a game, the lack of scoring does not mean that the defense is strong, but most NCAA players have rough skills and poor scoring ability.

For example, Guo Xu ’s past life's parallel search for Adam Morrison averaged 28.1 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.1 steals per game in the NCAA 2005-2006 season. He shot 50% from the field and 43% from the 3-point range. He was called the "big bird" in the draft. II.

Results Morrison entered the NBA and played 161 games before retiring, averaging 20.4 minutes of playing time, scoring 7.5 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists, shooting 37.3% from the field and 33.1% from the field. He was prevented from becoming a blacksmith.

It takes a while for most NCAA newcomers to adapt to the NBA rhythm.

After Grant and Fox entered the starting lineup, the Lakers' defense is stronger than last season, and the famous guards in the league will also feel uncomfortable. Guo Xu can steadily protect the basketball and bring it to the frontcourt, and dare to attack with the ball. Combat power.

After, Jackson arranged training mainly on running tactics, and the group confrontation time was not long. Every time, Guo Xu and Kobe were matched.

There was no chance to match up in the match, and Fisher often asked Guo Xu to single out and show his ability. He is stronger than Cliffs and can shoot. Guo Xu is really not good at defending him, but he can use his own advantages to explode with him. Fisher's height of 185CM, weight of 95 kg, body shape is close to a circle, straight line acceleration is still alive, and the lateral movement can't get up quickly. This weakness has accompanied the entire career.

Guo Xu was completely exploded against Kobe Bryant. Kobe's defense was too tight. He couldn't easily take a shot. He could only constantly find cover to get rid of it, dislocate a strong inside line or divide the ball to his teammates.

Counterattack is more difficult for Guo Xu when counterattacking, the difference between the two figures is obvious. He can break through the face, but Bryant can't make a breakthrough or jump shot in one step. Kobe Bryant is strong and his shot is too high. He can't even interfere with his eyes. He can only hope that Kobe has a bad feel and has three irons.

Is not afraid of playing against Harper and Brian Xiao Guoxu. Although these two have a height of 198CM, the advantage is mainly used to pass the ball, and the ability to hold the ball is single. As long as someone interferes with the hit rate, it will decrease.

Seeing Guo Xu force a breakthrough layup and O'Neill slaps in the air, assistant Cork Rambis whispered on the sidelines: "Phil, although you want Jason to be the sixth person in the team ~ www. readwn.com ~ But would n’t it be too much to practice like this as soon as you get up? Are you afraid that he will be beaten and lose confidence? "

Lambiz knew that Jackson was going to reuse Guo Xu, so he put pressure on him to get him to exercise with Kobe. But Guo Xu was only 19 years old after more than a month, and Rambis worried about the young players' mentality, and helped Miao.

Jackson never told Guo Xu his thoughts, and Rambis was afraid that Guo Xu would have some bad emotions.

Jackson was very confident in Guo Xu and smiled: "Different players have different practice methods. Kobe is only a substitute in his rookie season, but he dares to challenge all stars as soon as he plays. Jason is not the kind of willing to play roles. The player will not lose his confidence easily. I do n’t believe you told him to go to the sidelines. Ask him how he feels about Kobe? "

When was suspended, Rambis really called Guo Xu to his side and asked, "Jason, we have been arranging you on the side of the bench to let Kobe defend you. What do you think?"

"I am very happy, thank you, there is no better exercise than this, I feel that I have learned a lot of new things in the past few days." Guo Xu said excitedly.

"Have a good performance and attracted the defense to take the ball a little faster." Rambis patted Guo Xu on the back and encouraged.

This is indeed a very good exercise. If Guo Xu can play against Kobe's defense when training in the team, and the opponent uses ordinary players to defend him during the game, he has much less pressure and will play very firmly.

In the face of players with poor breakthroughs such as Harper and Fisher, Guo Xu has no high scores in the team and has no sense of accomplishment. He is the kind of person who likes to play games with the highest difficulty and challenge himself.

Rambis was relieved. He felt that Guo Xu and Kobe were a class of people, and he liked to play against strongmen. If he was sent by someone of ordinary strength to defend him, he would feel uncomfortable in his heart, and he would feel despised.
