Chapter 1090 [He took the route of a lonely hero]
President Adam Shaw was a little confused after reading the news, this is not the Los Angeles derby he wanted. What he's looking forward to is a battle-for-the-dragon and evenly matched game, with two star point guards competing against each other, and the attention and ratings of both teams skyrocketing, and then he can open champagne to celebrate.
Now only Guo Xu is in the limelight, and both the Clippers and Paul are suppressed to the point that they can't do it. Guo Xu's popularity is higher than before he retired, because he has taken the route of a lonely hero, and he is a real hero, not a lonely blacksmith.
Xiao Hua doesn't want one star to suppress everyone, Guo Xu's performance this time is too strong. If he is so fierce all season, it will be detrimental to the league's future plans to attract stars.
After all, Guo Xu will be 35 years old after playing this season, how many more years can he play in the future? And when he retires again, the NBA will definitely enter a state where there is no successor, and the gap between the new stars and him is too big.
Some NBA basketball experts who like to study the physical fitness of players have said that after watching the game, it feels like a dream.
Guo Xu's opening game and the preseason are two extremes, he barely jumped in the preseason, what level of bounce does he show now? ALTHOUGH HIS HEAD IS NOT YET FLAT, IT IS NOT FAR OFF, AND THE MAXIMUM BOUNCE HEIGHT IS ESTIMATED AT ABOUT 120CM WITH HIS HEIGHT.
What does this mean? Guo Xu's bounce power may be the first in the NBA, and it can also be ranked first in the entire NBA history.
ACCORDING TO THE RECORDED DATA, MICHAEL JORDAN IS ONLY 116CM IN RUNNING AND JUMPING, LEBRON JAMES, VINCE CARTER IS 111CM, AND KOBE IS 105CM. Last season's dunk king Zach LaVine was 116CM, and Nate Robinson's maximum bounce was 110CM, which should have risen a little later, but it was difficult to reach 120CM.
NBA legend "Potato" Spot Webb's maximum bounce of 133CM is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records, in fact, the recorded data Webb bounced only 120CM, which was slightly better than Jordan at that time.
Scientific experiments have proved that no one in this world can run and bounce straight up to more than 135CM, Webb can't jump better than the high jump world champion, right? Therefore, Webb's 133CM eighty percent is the same as Boikins' bench press of 140 kg, which is a record set by fans by mouth.
Guo Xu practiced so nonsense in the time loop, and the training system scanned only 92.5 points.
WANG JUN IS STRONGER, WITH A SCORE OF 97.2 POINTS, THE MAXIMUM BOUNCE IS ABOUT 130CM, AND HE WILL BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OLYMPIC HIGH JUMP COMPETITION IN THE FUTURE, AND HE MAY BE ABLE TO WIN A MEDAL IF HE PLAYS WELL.
Wang Jun jumped with all his might, and there was a feeling that Duang had added special effects, and dunks often spiraled into the sky. Guo Xu is limited by his height and can't do a 720-degree turn dunk.
During the break, there were still many fans on the Internet talking about Booker, believing that he would have a future in the future, and Guo Xu was very accurate.
Based on Guo Xu's evaluation, Booker's popularity in his rookie season cannot be low. Booker has now become Guo Xu's hardcore brother, taking the initiative to help carry the bag and asking Guo Xu for technical guidance.
Clarkson also accepted Guo Xu's guidance together, but he and Booker went head-to-head but couldn't win.
Clarkson's breakthrough tricks are more varied, and if the confrontation is too close, he is not destined to be Booker's opponent. His three-point shooting is also inconsistent, inferior to a few outside teammates, and only better than Roberson.
It's no small feat, and Clarkson has already thought about it, even though the season has only just begun.
He knows that he has a similar style to Booker, and that only one player will be able to play this season, and the other will not play a lot of minutes. Rookie Josh Richardson will also take some minutes off the ball.
Clarkson's style of play is very embarrassing, with strong offense and weak defense. His figure is also awkward, a bit short as a shooting guard, and his ball-handling ability is enough to play a cameo point guard but is too selfish, this person is not suitable to partner with Guo Xu.
This season he is in a contract year, and if he can't play beautiful statistics, next year's big contract will be hanging.
Which is more important, champion or high-paying long-term contract? For second-round rookie Clarkson, a big contract is important, and playing for a bad team will make it possible for him to be reused and play better stats.
Other teams have also appeared, some teams have become stronger, and some teams have weakened significantly.
Strong teams such as the Warriors, Nets, and Spurs all defeated their opponents smoothly. The Magic, Raptors, Cavaliers and other teams did not perform much in the first game and won the game.
Isaiah Thomas, the Cavaliers' 175CM point guard, had a very eye-catching performance, scoring 41 points and 6 assists in the first game to lead the team to a 112-95 victory over the Celtics.
Jimmy Butler joined the Pacers for 4 years and 70 million, and the Suns did not match the contract, which was a premium contract, and Butler was only a substitute in the Suns.
The Pacers immediately became stronger, and Butler scored 35 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in the first game. He helped the team beat the Mavericks 107-100 in their opening game and single-handedly beat Rookie of the Year Wiggins.
The Suns' roster has weakened even further, and in the summer they signed Brandon Roy to a lower contract extension, and almost everyone applauded Roy's willingness to take a big pay cut in an environment where the league was collectively raising wages.
As a result, Roy began to decline at the age of 31 and played poorly in the preseason. He shot 2-of-13 from the field and 3-of-4 from the free-throw line in the opener, finishing with just seven points and four assists.
With the help of the Suns, Roy had a stellar performance last season, but his knees were constantly wearing out, breaking less and less and shooting more and more. In fact, Roy knew that he couldn't stand it anymore, and the Suns management also knew, so he took a pay cut to stay on the team, and the core of the team this season became Klay Thompson.
The biggest weakness of the Suns is the lack of guard breakouts, and Jeremy Lin can barely be a starter, and his performance is really average.
The Suns also have problems on the inside, with Brian Colangelo and Hassan Whiteside signing big contracts and reluctant to let go of the center-forward that the team has produced. Whiteside's stats are pretty, but he's having a hard time helping the team win.
He averaged 14 points, 11.4 rebounds and 2.1 blocks per game last season, but he didn't have the ability to attack on the offensive end and relied heavily on his teammates' passes. On the defensive end, he has excellent statistics, poor defensive awareness, is often deceived and fouled by opponents when defending alone, and his ability to make up and assist defense is overrated, but as the core of the interior line, he has brought the Suns' defense to the bottom of the league.
In the first game, the Suns lost 103-125 to the Grizzlies, who lost Pau Gasol.
Suns fans miss Guo Xu very much now, and the comparison of the current situation of the two teams makes Guo Xu even greater. As soon as he left, the team immediately weakened, and the team he joined immediately became stronger, without exception.
The 76ers defeated the Bulls 98-97 on the road, and Bryant hit a mid-range shot that hit the whistle, and Comi had a holiday.
However, the scene of this game is very ugly, and the outside core of the two sides is playing iron.
Bryant played 30 minutes, shooting 8-of-24, 3-of-13 from three-point range and 5-of-5 from the free-throw line, shooting 33.3% from the field and 23.1% from three-point range, finishing with 24 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist.
Not to be outdone, the Bulls' Derrick Rose finished with 18 points, 1 rebound and 5 assists on 8-of-22 shooting, 0-of-2 three-pointers and 2-of-4 free throws.
The 76ers won by multi-point blossoming, with five players scoring in double figures, and Kemba Walker played 27 minutes off the bench, shooting 6-of-13, 3-of-6 from three-point range and 6-of-6 from the free-throw line, finishing with 21 points and two assists.
Jokic played just four minutes and scored two points on 1-of-1 shooting. Coach Brett Brown prefers to reuse DeAndre Jordan, who Jr. had 12 points, 21 rebounds and 2 blocks.
The 76ers' strategy is who gets the ball and who plays, and Rookie Russell started and played 26 minutes, shooting 2-of-7, 0-of-3 three-pointers, and no free throws, and got 4 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.
Russell let everyone down, he was the man who was responsible for dribbling the ball through the half, and the only bright spot was to guard Rose.
In fact, he didn't know why he defended so well, and he casually stretched out his hand and the other party struck iron......
