Chapter 1099 [Once by chance, twice by invincibility]

After the game, the Internet was full of news discussing Guo Xu, and experts who are good at making wall grass said that Guo Xu's personal ability is invincible, and the Lakers are not bad as a whole.

The rest of the Lakers' players also received high ratings, with Al Horford averaging 8.5 assists in three games, and suddenly changed from the Thunder trio who dragged Durant and Westbrook back to the league's top interior player.

Devin Booker, who scored in double figures in three consecutive games, has become a promising rookie, and many pundits say that he is optimistic about him becoming a star, forgetting that he averaged only 10 points per game in college, and many people said it was a miracle when he was selected in the first round of 12.

Nurkic, who had 16 points and 12 rebounds against the Trail Blazers, has also become a potential center, and last season he was said to be a waste wood who couldn't run fast, couldn't jump high, and had a good body.

Coach Tyrone Lue's popularity has increased significantly, and all fans around the world know him, because when the media introduces him, they always mention that he was traded for Guo Xu back then, which has become a funny joke.

Tyrone Lue is humorous, saying in an interview: "There are two things I'm very proud of in my life, one is that I replaced Jason alone, and the other is that I coached Jason. ”

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven. This happened to Guo Xu's team again, once by accident and twice invincible.

Guo Xu not only bears the heaviest responsibility on the court, but is also very generous in his usual life, giving his teammates high-end Apple laptops as gifts, and treating them to big dinners twice.

The Lakers' locker room is unprecedentedly united, and everyone is willing to pass the ball to Guo Xu and cooperate with him on offense.

Guo Xu didn't forget to praise his teammates after winning the high score game, he would not say that his teammates were not strong, but only that he wanted to brush the data, and his teammates made sacrifices. And he made it clear at the dinner that he would only brush this season and promised to help his teammates play in the future.

In this case, no one has an opinion about him, and he is dissatisfied with his many shots.

The players who rejected the Lakers in the summer were unlucky, and many veterans were the target of ridicule from the potmates.

The first to bear the brunt was Josh Smith, who rejected the Lakers with a tough attitude, he played badly with the Clippers and couldn't find a feeling at all, whether it was playing small forward or power forward, there were problems both offensively and defensively.

Smith not only didn't have a chance to win the championship with the Clippers, but was also sprayed by Clippers fans, and everyone thought he was seriously overrated.

Then there's David West, who jumped out of his contract and took a big pay cut to join the Nets after turning down an offer from the Lakers.

He said in an interview after Guo Xu scored 80 points: "I don't regret joining the Nets, because the roster is deeper, the Lakers only have Jason as a star in the summer, and I think it's a risky thing to join the Lakers to compete for a championship." What I'm trying to do now is try to help the Nets win. ”

The most mentioned by the pot secrets is power forward Ed Davis, this guy is good, played 79 games for the Lakers last season, averaged 8.3 points, 7.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.2 blocks in 23.3 minutes per game, shooting 60.1% from the field.

The management really wanted to keep Davis, who was super efficient in rebounding, but he chose to jump out of the second year of his contract and refused to renew the contract with the Lakers, signing the Trail Blazers for 20 million in three years, which is completely blind.

If Davis doesn't jump out of the contract, although he will only get an annual salary of one million this season, his worth will skyrocket next year after Guo Xu plays a good record, and the annual salary of 10 million is guaranteed, and he may be able to get an annual salary of 15 million if he goes to a weak team.

This is entirely possible, the Pacers' contract extension is similar to Davis's style, and Tristan Thompson, a blue-collar who averages 10+9 per game, has a contract of 5 years and 82 million.

When everyone knew that the NBA salary cap and player salaries would soar next year, he actually signed a three-year contract to go to a weak team?

If this is the decision of Davis's brokerage team, he should fire his agent as soon as possible. If it's his own decision, then it's a good fit for him to partner with Cousins, like the combination of Charlotte and Dasha Haru.

Dasha Spring! What are you doing?

I don't know what I'm going to do!

The Suns flew to Minneapolis for a day off and an away game against the Timberwolves on the 2nd.

Guo Xu won the best player in the West in the first week, and in the second phase of the official power rankings, the Lakers have risen to fourth in the league, and everyone doesn't think this game is in suspense.

Many people sweated for the new champion Karl Anthony Downs, who played very well in the first three games, averaging 20+10 per game, as if he was already a star insider.

The Timberwolves' 2-1 record is commendable, but Game 4 against Guo Xu's team is too early for newcomers, and Timberwolves fans are worried that Towns will be abused out of the shadows. Guo Xu especially likes to block and dismantle misplaced breakthroughs, and the big man can't defend him at all.

Guo Xu is already a nightmare for all interior players, no one is not afraid of misplacing him, not changing the defense to see him shoot three points, changing the defense is over, or being fouled, and the scene of successful defense is not common.

No one can share the defensive pressure for Towns, and the Timberwolves' starting point guard is Tylawson and the backup is veteran Andre Miller, and they don't want to face Guo Xu either.

Sure enough, on the night of the 2nd, Guo Xu was very powerful, scoring 23 points and 2 assists in the first quarter, and hit 5 three-pointers.

Guo Xu didn't break through the inside line much in this section, and rarely looked for cover, and in the counterattack, he soared three points against the 180CM tall Tylawson. In Zhang's reasonable words, this is "a very unreasonable three points, and the opponent will score if he can't cover it".

At one point, Tylawson was considered one of the best guards in the West, with a sharp break and accurate shooting. It's a pity that such a quasi-star is willing to fall into alcohol and can't extricate himself.

Last season, he was drunk and unconscious in training on several occasions, much to the displeasure of the team's management, and he almost faced jail time for drunk driving. The unbearable Nuggets sent him to the Timberwolves, where he had another mess in the preseason and in the opening stages.

In the summer, Tylawson completed a 30-day mandatory alcohol withdrawal program, and many were optimistic that he would return to the top. This is a luxury, his physical fitness has already begun to decline, and Guo Xu can easily squeeze him out of the basket when he counterattacks.

In order to strengthen the defense, Timberwolves coach Sam Mitchell can only let shooting guard Oladipo defend Guo Xu, and veteran Miller will guard shooting guard and be responsible for organization on the offensive end.

As a veteran without a championship ring, it is already a tragedy that Miller had no strong team to take him in at the end of his career, and he had to go to the wrong defensive young man, how could the defensive end not be a black hole?

Guo Xu can easily break the bag, he will share the ball, run to catch the ball or single-handedly Oladipo, it is still a good opportunity.

The Timberwolves didn't get into garbage time anytime soon, Oladipo and Towns, Garnett, Gorgi Giang, Belica and others played a lot of blocking and dismantling, and the Lakers couldn't defend against it.

The Timberwolves have several interior ranges, and Kevin Martin and Shabazz Muhammad lead the offense off the bench.

The poor defense and pick-and-roll can be said to be the Achilles' heel of the Lakers, and Tyrone Lue tried a variety of combinations when arranging the lineup, and the interior line was always easy to be passed by the guard. Nurkic, in particular, could barely get out of the box, and his lateral speed was a tragedy.

Downs performed eye-catchingly, focusing on catch-and-shoot shots, supplemented by strong attacks on the restricted area, and broke Nurkic. He played 33 minutes and finished with 22 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks.

In order to strengthen the mobility, Josh Richardson, Andre Roberson and Harrell were given a lot of playing time. Boozer was dropped and was not included in the squad.

In the end, the Lakers won by 8 points, and Guo Xu played 43 minutes, scoring a big double-double of 61 points, 3 rebounds and 10 assists.

The Timberwolves had no choice but to take Guo Xu all over the court, he scored 60+ in three consecutive games......
