The Kings attacked, and Rondo dribbled the ball over halfcourt and passed to Harden.

Guo Xu could have let Rondo help Booker to wrap up Harden, but he didn't do it, standing on the side and watching the excitement quietly.

Playing up with stars is the best exercise for newcomers, and if Booker improves his defensive ability this season, the Lakers' overall offense will be stronger heading into the playoffs. If he doesn't defend the black hole for too long, he'll have to reuse blue-collar Andre Roberson in the playoffs.

Harden was sleepy-eyed, but his movements weren't slow at all. He dribbled under the right crotch and stepped back, simply changed his back to meet Booker's jumper, and returned a three-pointer. 3 to 3.

Harden's best style of play is similar to Guo Xu's, using the change of dribbling rhythm to attract the defender's center of gravity forward or backward. When the opponent is advancing, he can change his direction to pass, and when the opponent retreats, it is difficult to block Harden's step-back shot.

The Lakers attacked, and the players all pulled away.

Guo Xu continued to dribble under his crotch, and Rondo didn't shake. He watched the weak side, changed direction and forced his way to the right, with Rondo following.

Both of them were very fast, Guo Xu brought a 45-degree right hand behind his back dribble to the left hand to make an emergency stop, and his left hand received the crotch dribble and gave it to the right hand. His technique was just right, and Rondo took a small step forward after a sharp stop, and was completely shaken off by the second movement.

Guo Xu took another step back, and scored on the board with a mid-range shot, 5-3.

Rondo didn't have time to jump when he moved sideways, so he could only stretch out his hand, and no matter how long his arm was, this kind of interference was useless to Guo Xu.

The king attacked, Guo Xu retreated to the three-point line and put Rondo two meters away, and he didn't bother to raise his head. This is his headache today, as long as Rondo is there, it will be difficult to play the king and release the water, it depends on the defensive performance of his teammates.

For the past five seasons, Rondo has always been in the top three in the league in assists, in the top 10 in steals, and in rebounding statistics among point guards, and it looks like he is one of the top players in the league.

The truth is that for the past three seasons, when Rondo was not on the court, his team has scored two more points per 100 possessions.

What's more, Rondo has a high turnover rate under the premise that he will never be caught and will rarely be defended closely, averaging 3.4 per game last season and 3.9 per game in 2012-13, when he made the most turnovers.

What is this concept? Guo Xu averaged 3.2 times per game in the season with the most turnovers. In the same playing time, Curry, Kobe, James and others, who are responsible for the main offense with the ball, do not make as many mistakes as Rondo, let alone compare with a solid guard like Paul.

Harden singled, like Guo Xu, used the crotch dribble to do the starting hand, Booker's center of gravity shifted forward a little this time, Harden changed to hold the ball and broke through, deliberately hit Booker's hand and threw the ball to the free throw line.

He made both free throws, 5-5.

The Lakers attacked, and Rondo began to be entangled in the half, and he knew that Guo Xu had the ability to shoot three points from a long distance. Guo Xu passed the ball to Horford and began to run without the ball.

Rondo is very physical and is known as one of the most physical point guards, he has an extraordinarily long reach, huge hands, terrifying speed and amazing bounce. But today, Rondo's body is at a disadvantage, and Guo Xu can come directly to the hard, much stronger than him.

When Rondo first entered the league, he was only 77 kilograms, as thin as Iverson, and he looked like a dry chicken, with a terrible offense and a loss on the defensive end. If he had been of this stature, Rondo would not have been much better if he had not been a defensive black hole.

However, he worked hard, and in his third season, he gained 84kg and became a player known for his defense. He was named to the All-Defensive Team for the first time, and since then, he's not afraid to play against any point guard.

Not being afraid doesn't mean you can defend against it. Guo Xu deliberately made close contact with Rondo when he was running, and then violently changed direction and hit him to get rid of the defense and cut to the basket from the bottom corner.

Horford's landing pass was just right, Guo Xu received the ball and threw it in one step, Hibbert didn't have time to jump, and the ball flew to the basket and hit.

7 to 5, Guo Xu scored 7 points in a row.

The referee didn't blow the whistle, Guo Xu and Rondo are about the same size, if this kind of foul is fouled against the blowing star without the ball, everyone will think that he is blowing the black whistle. In this case, the defender is freed, and he can only blame himself for not being strong enough.

The Kings attacked, and Rondo also wanted to return the color, gritting his teeth and choosing an open jumper for three points. He had a good hand today and went in on his first shot. 7 to 8.

The home fans gave Rondo a round of applause, and Guo Xu also applauded twice, smiling.

Yu Jia said with a smile: "Guo Xu applauded his opponent again, his self-confidence was too strong, and he didn't defend at the beginning." It's a lot like a superstar encouraging a newcomer, and his status is high and high. ”

Zhang Li smiled: "He is now I don't care how many points you score, anyway, I score more points than you, and win the game with offense." ”

Yu Jia said: "Because of Guo Xu, the Lakers are now super strong, much like a championship team. ”

Guo Xu first passed the ball to the Horford organization, and then ran to the line in the bottom right corner, and Nurkic pulled out to block Rondo.

Guo Xu received a 70-degree pass from Horford and made a quick three-point shot, with a perfect rhythm. Rondo was a little slower to follow, Hibbert didn't change the defense, and the ball went in again. 10 to 8.

The Kings' home fans also gave Guo Xu a round of applause, and he scored 10 points in a row on 4-of-4 shooting in the opening game.

The Kings attacked, and after Rondo was let go, he didn't have the confidence to shoot a second shot in a row and passed to Harden.

This time, Harden turned to Europe and slammed into Booker, threw the ball, grabbed one of Booker's arms, turned and fell.

The referee blew for a defensive foul, Booker defended innocently, but the referee ignored the rookie. Looking at the video replay on the big screen of the court, Harden's actions are very funny.

Harden is Shaw's much-admired perimeter star, averaging more than 10 free throws per game in the regular season for three consecutive seasons, and a little worse in the playoffs. His breakthrough is so good that you can get a defender with your hands behind your back, and you can get fouled when you reach out.

Tyrone Lue replaced Booker with Seth Curry. He always understands the intentions of the boss, and no matter which team he plays for or which star he plays with, he knows how to get the ball to the core better.

Guo Xu didn't guard against Rondo, he was afraid that the king would lose too quickly, so he should go to Seth, he shot well, defended scum, and the main defense Harden was the one who delivered the food.

Clarkson sighed to himself on the sidelines, this day is really not going to be lived, he was often the team's first choice for substitutions last season, and now he is not even the Lakers sixth man, let alone competing for the best sixth man.

And this Josh Richardson is in the squad, and at first glance, the coaching staff thinks it is easy to beat the Kings, and considers letting him spend time on the court to practice.

Harden hit both free throws to make it 10-10.

Guo Xu missed a three-point shot from a distance in the half, and the King counterattacked Harden and also shot three points, but Seth didn't cover it, and the ball was also out of the way. Nurkic took the rebound and gave it to Seth, who dribbled the ball across the half court to Guo Xu.

Guo Xu was the fastest, and the single fast break rushed to the three-point line, he received the ball and dribbled a step, and his shoulder leaned on Rondo to force a layup. 12 to 10.

He played Stephen Curry like this in the time loop, and the opponent who could squeeze it couldn't jump. He will now incorporate some of the essence of Bajiquan into the game of basketball, using it to attack, help, squeeze and rely on defenders. How can a person like Rondo, who relies on instinct to fight physically, resist him one-on-one?

Now the only point guard in the league who can resist Guo Xu's strong assault is probably Lowry, a "small steel cannon", and a heavy point guard who is too tall can't do it, and if the speed is much worse, he will be eliminated if he has no chance to fight.

The Kings' head coach is George Carr, who is reluctant to call a timeout......
