At the end of the quarter, O'Neal and Guo Xu took the bench together and played for 5 minutes.
The tactics arranged by Phil Jackson were similar to those in the third quarter. Horry and Guo Xu played pick-and-rolls in the middle. The two drew apart from the outside to attract the defense. O'Neal could catch the ball in the low post and attack at any time.
As long as the Lakers ensure the position of the triangle offense, it will be difficult for the Celtics to double-team the "casserole combination".
Guo Xu's outside singles attracted the help of defense and distributed the ball to create better shooting opportunities for his teammates. Even if the Green Army rotated the defense at this time, the side players only had to hang the ball to O'Neal and there was still a chance, and the inside star singles.
This simple routine will make the opponent miserable as long as there are two strong single attack points. It does not require much on-the-spot changes. Jackson is enjoying himself on the sidelines in a daze, closing his eyes to rest.
When the Green Army defended, they used Guo Xu as an offensive point. They were very active when encountering pick-and-roll point guards and power forwards when switching defenses. He did not look for cover, and the wings helped to defend double teams to prevent him from speeding up, let alone letting him in. There is an easy opportunity to shoot outside.
They were afraid of Guo Xu's three-pointers and would rather let others take easy shots than watch Guo Xu score a record high score.
Guo Xu distributed the ball selflessly and assisted Horry to hit a three-pointer. O'Neal scored 6 points with dunks and free throws.
Even though the positional battle was strictly guarded, Guo Xu still seized the opportunity during the counterattack and scored 5 points.
At 8 minutes and 15 seconds, he changed direction and passed Brown, was pulled to the free throw line, and made two free throws.
At 7 minutes and 08 seconds, he went on a fast break alone and faced Brown from the right and hit a three-pointer.
The two sides entered garbage time with a score difference of 28 points. Jackson replaced the "casserole combination" and began to train the substitutes.
Guo Xu's statistics were fixed at 40 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal, and he made 8 three-pointers in the game. He only played a total of 31 minutes. Although he failed to set a new personal scoring high, his offensive efficiency was even more terrifying.
O'Neal played 34 minutes and scored 28 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks. It is worth mentioning that O'Neal made 10 of 14 free throws in this game, with a free throw shooting rate of 71.4%.
O'Brien also replaced all the main forces early and surrendered. At the end of the game, the Lakers won 118-92, with five players on the team scoring in double figures.
This is Guo Xu’s second 40+ game in his rookie season.
After the game, it attracted a large number of reporters for interviews.
"Zen Master" Jackson, O'Neal and others all praised Guo Xu, and he himself was no longer humble. In the past, he was humble because he was not strong enough, but now he is more and more confident.
Guo Xu talked about his feelings and said: "The team needs me to shoot more balls. When I stand up and score, I will definitely stand up and score. Now that Kobe is on hiatus, I have to take on more responsibilities. I am very happy that I have done this." , I believe I will continue to maintain my excellent form in the next games.”
The reporter asked: "Do you think your current scoring ability is comparable to that of Iverson in his rookie season?"
This is a question meant to spark a fight. If Guo Xu fails to answer it, he will easily be criticized online.
"I have never thought about this. My goal is not to become the scoring champion, but to help the team win the championship. My recent goal is to help the team break the regular season record. Everyone should not focus on me alone. On my body." Guo Xu paused deliberately and smiled: "Every time I hit a three-pointer or score three or forty points, do you really think it was done by me alone? To be honest, there are five people in the game. Yes, believe it or not."
Guo Xu mentioned Adidas’ classic advertising slogan. If they want to use this in the future, they may be accused of plagiarism without Guo Xu’s consent.
Guo Xu said there was no comparison, but he actually gave the answer. Iverson is famous because of his personal ability and statistics. There is no comparison with Guo Xu in terms of teamwork and record.
In the 1996-97 season, the 76ers had the offensive trident of Coleman, Stackhouse, and Iverson. As a result, they achieved 22 wins and 60 losses. They ranked second from last in the Eastern Conference and went straight to the No. 1 pick. In the end, they selected No. 2 Keith - Van Horn.
This is a bit of a pity. If the 76ers had better luck and won the No. 1 pick, they would definitely choose Duncan, and they would not trade Jim Jackson and No. 7 pick Tim Thomas with the Nets.
Larry Brown arrived next season, and the 76ers, with Iverson, Coleman, Jim Jackson (replaced by Joe Smith in the mid-term), Tim Thomas, Ratliff, McGee and others, won 31 games. Ranked second to last in the Eastern Conference, Larry Hughes was selected in the summer.
Comprehensive statistics, shooting percentage, record, tactical role and other aspects, Guo Xu completely surpassed Iverson as a rookie and did not discuss it. Even compared with the current Iverson, he is only at a disadvantage in terms of breakthrough skills, game experience, and physical fitness, and they are not far behind. The time loop has determined that he can at least compete with Iverson.
After the game, online fans started another heated discussion. Now when talking about NBA guards, Iverson and Jason Guo must be mentioned.
Amy still maintains the same argument: "Jason Guo is a good teammate in the Lakers. He is lucky and has a big thigh. He is not at the same level as Iverson."
The pot secrets are getting straighter and straighter, and they dare to speak for their idols. "Jason is now about to break the regular season record. What is Iverson doing in his rookie season? He is competing with two teammates for the top spot, playing hard in the game."
Amy said: "Iverson leads the team independently and has the best record in the Eastern Conference. Do you want Jason Guo to lead the team independently?"
Pot Secret: "The total salary of the 76ers exceeds 50 million US dollars. In addition to Iverson, several insiders in the team are also famous. How do you know that he leads the team independently? Poor offensive data means no contribution, right? ?”
Amy said: "Jason Guo is a defensive black hole. Just wait to be beaten when you encounter him in the finals. The 76ers are the best defensive team in the league. Iverson is the steal leader and a defensive expert. He will kill you when the time comes!" "
Confronted with this topic, the insiders all lost their temper. There's really no way to refute this. Iverson steals a lot, and the 76ers' defense is really good. This season, the 76ers' defensive efficiency ranks second in points allowed per game, second only to the Spurs.
Where is Guo Xu? The defensive end leaves the impression that there are many fouls, currently averaging 3.6 per game, but only 1.4 steals per game. In terms of defense, he is definitely a long way from Iverson, who leads the league in steals, defends very cleanly, and averages 2 fouls per game.
Fortunately, there was a clever trickster to change the subject. "No matter how great Iverson is, he will not win the regular season MVP this year. Will the MVP not be awarded to the star of the record-breaking team?"
Now it was Amy's turn to be depressed. There was no way to refute this topic.
Just like Jordan was elected MVP in the Bulls' record-breaking season, the award could not go to his family. If Iverson won the MVP, everyone would question it except Amy.
In fact, in Guo Xu's previous life, there was a lot of controversy when Iverson won the MVP this season. The team with the best record that year was the Spurs, which won two more games than the 76ers.
Duncan played in all 82 games, averaging 22.2 points, 12.4 rebounds, 3 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.3 blocks in 38.7 minutes per game. He shot 50% from the field and was the core of the team on both offense and defense. Iverson is the core of the offense, averaging 31.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 2.5 steals per game, shooting 42% from the field, and missed 11 games.
If the record is only two games short, the league can find bright spots for Iverson from other aspects, and the controversy will not be too big. But now, even if the Lakers don't break the record, they will lose five games and have 70 wins this season. A record of 76 is obviously not enough.
O'Neal has a significantly greater chance of winning the regular season MVP title, while Iverson's personal honor hangs in the balance.
