The Suns' opponent in Game 21 is the Lakers, located in Phoenix, which is the focus of this round.

The two teams were in the same competition area but only met after a quarter of the season, which was a deliberate arrangement of the league.

This year, the Lakers added Artest, an All-Star player, and the lineup became stronger. Stern had the idea of ​​supporting the Lakers again. Artay, who has been suspended for nearly a whole season, has been punished, and the president does not want to give up the Los Angeles market for the sake of him.

The Clippers are Adou who cannot be helped. Who else can they praise if they don’t praise the Lakers? The Suns don’t need to increase their publicity efforts. They are the targets of challenge. Whoever can defeat the Suns will attract people.

The Lakers defeated the strong rival Spurs at home in Los Angeles in the last game, ranking second in the Western Conference with a record of 16 wins and 4 losses. Kobe also won both games absent.

After joining Artest significantly strengthened the Lakers' wing defense and performed well on the offensive end, averaging 16.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 2 steals per game, shooting percentage of 44%, and three-point shooting percentage of 38%.

At this time, Artai was different from Artai, who only joined the Lakers in 2009. His physical fitness and technology were at its peak in all aspects. Once the Lakers arrived, he could threaten Odom's second-in-command position. He could provide the Lakers with strong defense and three-point firepower. His partner Kobe's effect was better than Caron Butler who was sent to the Pacers.

Although Butler averaged 20+5+5 per game in the new season, his defense is not as fierce as Atai and he is not considered a defensive expert.

Substitute guard Ellis has also made progress. His playing time is only 20 minutes ago than last season, and he averaged 10.4 points and 2.2 assists per game, becoming the team's sixth man, leading the substitute lineup with Luke Walton. After the Lakers selected Famal, Ellis can play the familiar shooting guard when he appears, without taking into account the organizational tasks.

"Zen Master" Phil Jackson occasionally lets Ellis and Kobe play 2 and 3 positions on the court to strengthen the offense, so that the Lakers can also make a quick counterattack.

The Lakers' inside strength is also good. Bogut is a center who can defend the penalty area on the defensive end and can pull out to support the pass. Odom is excellent in offense and defense, and can be a substitute in the second quarter to make the ball run better.

They are stronger than Guo Xu's previous life and the same period. Bogut will definitely be better than Kwame Brown after integrating into the team. Artest beat Walton, who is now playing as a substitute, and the Lakers only lack one potential center Andrew Bynum.

The Lakers are determined to win this game and are eager to end the Suns' winning streak. They lost too badly last playoff, and Kobe is eager to prove his strength by defeating Guo Xu.

When he thinks of the summer fans' comments, Kobe has the urge to destroy the world.

Some fans said that he was the luckiest player in NBA history. His imitation of the second-star in NBA history attracted fans. He held the thighs of the first-star in NBA history and the top ten stars in history and took three championship rings. Then he drove away the first-ranked and top-ranked ten in history, and was once whistled by the second-ranked history as the best in active service but could not pass the first round.

Because the championship this season is almost unsurprising, 6 billion Guomi has already called Guo Xu the first in history, which makes Kobe envious and jealous, and he dreams of defeating Guo Xu and the Suns.

Before the game started, Guo Xu had a meal with his Lakers' old teammates at noon, not with Kobe, but retired veteran Rick Fox.

After meeting, Rick sighed: "Jason, I'm here to ask you for help, I hope you can help me."

Rick is a little difficult to say. As a famous NBA player and winner of three championship rings, if he hadn't been desperate, he wouldn't have come to Phoenix to find Guo Xu.

The two have only been teammates for two years and are not considered good friends when chatting much. But Fox sees Guo Xu on the news every day, thinking that he is the person who is the most capable of helping him.

"What happened to you? If you can help, I will definitely help you."

Rick talked about his current situation. After retiring, he was very miserable. He first divorced his wife from Miss America, and then failed to invest. In addition, he became overwhelmed in the early stages. He needed to find a job and a stable source of income.

Rick smiled bitterly and said, "I actually have only two options left. One is to come to join you, and the other is to shoot AV movies. A company has found me."

Rebirth for too long and playing too many things, Guo Xu forgot that Rick Fox still has this life. Without help from his friends in his previous life, he chose to make a living by filming AV. No matter whether his actions are understood by people, whether they are scolded or admired, in short, he made a comeback through the money he earned from filming.

It is not easy to take this step. If there are other options, he will not shoot AV.

The Lakers' old teammates ignored Rick, and O'Neal, who went to Miami in the East, didn't care about him. Shackle's way of supporting him was probably to wait for the movie to be filmed and bought it home to enjoy it as a collection.

As for Kobe, the two have never contacted him since Rick retired. Kobe basically treats teammates who leave the Lakers in this way. He will nod and say hello unless he meets them during an event. There are only a handful of teammates who can establish friendship with him for a long time.

Megan Fox followed Guo Xu to the appointment. When Rick said he was going to shoot AV, he laughed out loud.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, and she waved her hand and said, "I'm sorry, your joke is really..."

Rick shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Actually, I'm not kidding."

Guo Xu only thought for a moment and made a decision: "Rick, don't be depressed, the difficulties are only temporary. I believe you must know that your name is very suitable for joining the company. Follow me and how about being a branch manager first? I promise not to treat you badly."

Rick's eyes shone brightly when he heard this, as if he had crawled out of hell at once. "I don't have experience in this area, is this okay?"

When he came, he thought about starting from a lower position, but he didn't expect that Guo Xu was so happy and generous, and he didn't look at his education, ability, and work experience at all.

"I'll find someone with experience to take you. You're an NBA star. We established a dynasty together and left a name in the history of NBA. Can't you do a good job as a store manager? And this is only temporary." Guo Xu paused and smiled and said, "Don't you like the entertainment industry very much? When I invested in making movies, I had a suitable role to notify you to audition."

Rick was so moved that he almost cried. Guo Xu still remembered that he liked the entertainment industry. Before he retired, he made guest appearances in many movies, and in college he focused on radio, television and film majors.

The key to helping charcoal in time is to help charcoal in real time, not to comfort verbally. The charcoal is not expensive, so there are not many people who give it.

For Guo Xu, Larik was a simple task. He knew that this man had a bad personality and did not give up on himself like Odom when he was in the trough of his life. He almost died of alcohol and drug use. Rick never did anything that was harmful to the world. He did a good job in the entertainment industry in his previous life. After making money, he bought a team of "League of Legends".

Guo Xu really has some roles suitable for Rick. He will definitely invest in action movies in the future. Rick's 201cm tall is bigger than "The Rock" Johnson in the movie, and he can play the villain.

After dinner, Guo Xu called Rick's company contact person and personally called someone to arrange for him to take up his post.

He also called the team management to ask for a ticket and invited Rick to watch the Suns vs. Lakers tonight.

"I think you are under a lot of pressure recently and your complexion is not very good. Don't leave today. Watch the football and relax and go to the hotel for a good night's sleep. Go back to Los Angeles tomorrow."
