Chapter 752 [Recovering from injuries in other places, joining forces in the Western Finals]

After being injured, Guo Xu did not return to Phoenix, but stayed in Los Angeles to recuperate.

In May, the weather in Phoenix City is very hot, so Guo Xu can only stay at home every day. In Los Angeles, he can live in his parents' house, a hotel's luxury suite, and a friend Robert Smith's luxury home in Beverly Hills. He can live wherever he wants.

In order to facilitate the convenience of playing with friends, Guo Xu lived at Robert's house. His villa has 8 bedrooms and many rooms are empty. He can hold a party to meet his friends at any time.

Guo Xu and Meghan will not bother them when they come to visit, and their children will not make noises. They not only have full-time servants, but also call their own servants to do things because the place is too big and it is easy for them to find people.

In Guo Xu's previous life, in 2014, American TV launched a reality show called "The Rich Second Generation of Beverly Hills", which has several seasons. The whole film is full of dazzling famous bags, luxury cars, bars worth hundreds of thousands, catering bills, private jets and various travels that can be walked around. It makes people feel that reincarnation is a technical job, and Robert lives this kind of life.

Guo Xu can live this kind of life, but he and Meghan don’t like it, so he has never bought a big house, and it’s just that cleaning is troublesome.

After the holidays, Guo Xu's daily life is to eat, drink and have fun, pay attention to avoiding food, and go to the hospital for regular check-ups.

When friends came to visit and visited the hospital, they were very impressed by Guo Xu's attitude towards life. They relax when it was time to relax, and would not complain with frown and focus all their attention on the Suns' basketball game.

The situation is undoubtedly serious for the Suns. Guo Xu is absent due to injury, Laga Bale is suspended for one game for choking Kobe, and Haslem has four more games to suspend, so they are unable to play the first match of the Western Conference Finals.

However, Guo Xu will not be uncomfortable. He knows that what happened cannot be restored. Regret and discomfort are meaningless. Doing things in the future calmly is the key. What he can do now is to trust his teammates and encourage his teammates in interviews.

Guo Xu also practiced a song with Britney, and sang it together when she came back, including a male version, a female version, and a chorus version.

Guo Xu is in a good mood every day. If he wants to take care of the fracture in Phoenix City for six weeks, Guo Xu in Los Angeles is confident that he will recover in one month.

Other series also scored their winners and no sweeps appeared.

The Pistons eliminated the Hawks 4-2, and the point guard core battle was very exciting. Billups was not famous, but his performance was not inferior to Nash.

In the series, Billups averaged 22 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 43.2%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 41%. Nash averaged 21 points, 2.5 rebounds and 9 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 47%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 37.6%.

Both sides in other positions are also in equal strength, and they have inside players who can withdraw the air and shoot three-pointers in the penalty area, swingers with super physical fitness, and excellent substitutes.

The Pistons won in luck. They were once 17 points behind in the final quarter of the home court in the Battle of Tianwang Mountain. Then Rashid Wallace broke out and made three consecutive three-pointers, scoring 15 points in a single quarter. The Pistons led the game to overtime.

In overtime, the Hawks players collectively silenced and scored only 4 points in 5 minutes and lost the game. Rashid made another three-pointer in overtime, scored two points with one empty cut, and made two free throws in one foul.

Rashid's form has long begun to decline. He cannot break out in 10 games. However, he made 6 three-pointers in the key game, scoring 32 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists in the whole game, as if he had returned to the peak.

In the sixth game, Billups, Hamilton and Prince broke out together and scored 20+, and 14 points left to send the Hawks home.

Hawks fans are very disappointed with the team's management. After several seasons, they still have not been able to solve the weakness of lacking scoring at the basket, and have no center who is good at scoring, and rely too much on small ball tactics.

The Cavaliers eliminated the Nets 4-2.

The Nets lost because they lacked three-point shooting hands. They shot fewer outside, and Ilgoskas and Boozer were able to play together. The two blocked the penalty area. It was difficult for the Nets guards to break into the basket and the inside could not grab the frontcourt rebound.

The Cavaliers are the first in the league in rebounding statistics this season, and James and substitute Bidlins also have high rebounding efficiency.

The Nets and David Lee Hou had better off the offense. He was on the field with Mickey Moore. Jason Collins appeared on the inside to defend better. He lacked height and was still an empty target on the offensive end.

Vince Carter left the Raptors and still didn't taste the feeling of entering the division final. If this continues, his popularity will soon be gone.

Kidd is the Nets' best performer. After entering the playoffs, he averaged 14.6 points, 10.3 rebounds, 11 assists and 1.8 steals per game, shooting percentage of 43.2%, shooting percentage of 3-pointers 42%, and shooting average of 2.8 three-pointers per game.

But Kidd had now wanted to leave. He could see that there was no future for staying in the Nets. He was 34 years old and wanted a championship ring.

There was no upset in the West, the Spurs eliminated the Jazz 4-2 and met with the Suns in the Western Conference Finals.

Deron Williams was not afraid of Parker and performed very well, averaging 20+10 per game. David West averaged 21.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3 assists per game in the series.

In Guo Xu's previous life, the Jazz in the same period was not so good. West is more suitable to partner with Oku. He is 206cm tall and weighs 108 kg. He is more mobile and has a stronger pick-and-roll effect than Boozer.

But the Jazz still lost, they lost because of the coach, and their tactics were not as flexible as the Spurs.

Jerry Sloan is a great coach because he can train Malone and Stockton to become 50 superstars with physical fitness, and can also turn Boozer, Oku, Kirirenko, Deron and others into a group of All-Stars.

However, he is also an incompetent coach, because his team-building policy always revolves around tactics rather than a certain player. He only plays pick-and-rolls and is rigid and stubborn. He cannot bring back a championship trophy for the Jazz, and he cannot even win a coach of the year for his 20-year coaching career.

This is a very magical thing. After all, even Brown, who are seriously overrated such as Larry Brown, Mike Brown, etc. have won the Best Competition Award.

In fact, Sloan is like Kobe in the coaching industry. Why is there only one MVP? Because every year there are people who are better than him. He often places around 2-5, but cannot win awards.

Pick-and-roll tactics can ensure winning rate in the regular season. It is very useful to play teams with flawed defensive ends, but always playing pick-and-roll is easy to get the opponent's routine. In 7-game 4-winning games, it is easy to be targeted by the opponent after playing a few games.

**Vic boldly reused the inside lineman Fabricho Oberto who entered the NBA in the non-draft. Although his offense is poor, he is more mobile. He goes out to defend Oku. His height of 208cm can interfere with shooting, and he can also switch to defenders when encountering pick-and-roll.

Duncan has a large defense range. He will use his height and wingspan to interfere with his shooting and can also defend against pick-and-roll.

On the offensive end, the GDP combination Granger and Finley performed well in every game, and they blossomed at multiple points. Veterans Horry and Barry also played a role when they came on as a substitute, opening up space to help their teammates create opportunities.

The Spurs looked equally strong in the first two rounds, and the Suns were missing Guo Xu, and everyone was worried about them.

The Suns also have good news, that is, the Jazz won two games and delayed for six days. Even if the Suns swept the Lakers, the Western Conference Finals could not start immediately, and Guo Xu got more rest time.

When D'Antoni was boosting morale, he told the players not to retain any physical strength to fight the Spurs, and to fight to the death of the Spurs, and he would have a few days off to start before the finals.
