Chapter 867 [Don't hold me alone to abuse! 】
Duncan grabbed the backcourt rebound and the Western Conference immediately launched a counterattack.
Guo Xu advanced to the frontcourt and looked at Paul who was asking for the ball without a glance. He dribbled the ball under his crotch to his left hand, and kept receiving the ball from behind and gave it to his right hand. After collecting the ball, he took another step back and made a 70-degree three-pointer on the right.
Wade failed to cover up his full defense in the Star Game, and the ball went in, 5-0.
Guo Xu's movements are very coherent, and it looks like a double step back, because when dribbling behind the ball, the ball will touch the ground, and the referee will never blow the step and violate the rules, and it is indeed not a step.
Guo Xu started practicing this technique last season. In the future, he may evolve to dribbling under the crotch first, and while taking a step back, he will move the ball behind his back to his right hand, and then take a step back. Of course, it is nonsense to play like this, and it becomes a real double step back, but it is easier to open up space and can be faster than half a second.
According to the original historical development, the "crab step" in October this year was legal, but except for James, it is difficult for others to take four steps without being criticized for being criticized for being illegal. Even Guo Xu could not regard double step retreat as a unique skill.
In the Eastern Conference offense, James forced his ball to break through and into the penalty area to divide the ball. Garnett made two points from the left mid-range shot. 5-2.
Garnett was not very interested in playing the star game, and he also had a cold face after scoring the goal.
He is under too much pressure. The Celtics formed the Big Three. There is no excuse for him to win the championship. Only a very small number of fans believe that their three "veterans" in their early 30s were teaming up at the end of their careers.
What's even more embarrassing is that the Timberwolves have a good record now and are likely to make it to the playoffs in the Western Conference this season. After joining the Timberwolves, Al Jefferson has produced luxurious data for two consecutive years, but Garnett's data has dropped to an average of 16.3 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game. This should not be the data of the giants.
The way to excuse the idol is "one game he plays less". Garnett was very depressed when he saw it. It seemed that this group of people was cursing that he was less than 33 years old and had to retire after playing for a few seasons. How could Jordan just start his second three-game championship at this age!
In the Western Conference offense, Paul dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Guo Xu received the pass with Yao Ming's off-ball cover. The person who defended it was Garnett. Guo Xu did not go out directly and dribbled the ball horizontally from the outside to expand the distance.
Garnett went back to follow Yao Ming, Wade was in the process of defending, and Guo Xu got another singles chance.
This time he dribbled the ball under his crotch to his right hand, took the ball behind his back and closed the ball with his left hand, then took the left foot and retreated to the middle, made a three-pointer and leaned back slightly.
Wade's jump was slower and he couldn't cover it, and the ball went in 8 to 2.
Guo Xu scored 8 points in a row, and the home fans applauded and cheered.
Zhang Heli said: "As long as Guo Xu wants to score, he will definitely score when he fights one-on-one, and Wade cannot defend him one-on-one. It seems that he is going to let go of the ballot today."
Yu Jia said: "If he continues to play like this, he may break the star game record in a single game today, but that would be too disrespectful to Eastern Conference stars."
James made a breakthrough layup missed, and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound and passed it to Paul. Paul slowed down as soon as he got the ball and did not launch a fast break.
Paul and Yao Ming played pick-and-roll, but were blocked by Garnett and then divided the ball into the middle. Yao Ming made a three-point jump shot against Nash. The frontcourt rebound was grabbed by Sir and was assigned to Guo Xu on the outside.
Guo Xu fought one-on-one again, dribbling the ball under his crotch to his left hand. This time Wade's attention was on him. He was worried that the distance was too close and he would be passed, so he took a step a little later. Unexpectedly, Guo Xu did not change direction to the right, nor did he dribble the ball behind him. He directly took the left foot and retreated, and shot three-pointers one meter outside the three-point line in the middle.
Wade rushed out and took off one step slower.
Guo Xu took action too quickly, like pushing the ball out with one hand, with a high arc and a small backward tilt. His movements seemed to be blind, but the ball was hollow into the net. 11 to 2.
Wade's crazy complaints were also a little stimulated.
Damn, no, why did the coach arrange for me to prevent him? This is Nash's job.
Wade didn't know why, but Guo Xu could always take action when he was uncomfortable, but he didn't know that this was all achieved by Guo Xu's single-handed fight with him during the time cycle, and he figured out his rhythm.
Wade's excellent defense is due to his physical fitness. He has a good arm span and can keep up with the opponent's pace in defense and interfere with it at all times. He has outstanding physical confrontation, is also good at assisting in blocking, and has a certain ability to protect the rebounds in the backcourt.
His speed is very fast, his straight acceleration is famous in the NBA, and his horizontal movement speed is not slow, but after all, he is a heavy guard who is 193cm tall and weighs 100 kilograms, and his flexibility is slightly inferior to that of a smaller guard.
Wade is not good at defending defenders who like to dribble behind the back. At the Olympics last year, Chinese defender Chen Jianghua used a simple dribble behind the back to pass Wade. In Guo Xu's previous life, combining dribble under the crotch and dribble behind the back was Jamal Crawford's ultimate move, and Wade was beaten up against him.
Crawford's highest score in his career was against Wade. When he was in the Knicks, he had just won the championship in the 2006-07 season. He made 20 of 30 shots, 8 of 10 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 52 points. And Crawford lost his first 4 goals in that game and made 16 consecutive shots.
Now that Crawford, who is in the Hawks, has to play four games with the Heat in one season. Although he has not scored 50+, he has played 40+ twice against Wade.
Wade felt very embarrassed, and Guo Xu let him go two steps away from the defensive end and looked absent-minded. He received the ball and pulled a three-pointer on the left. Guo Xu didn't jump but just reached out and the ball entered. 11 to 5.
Wade breathed a sigh of relief after scoring the goal. Fortunately, Guo Xu did not put all his strength to defend himself from shooting, otherwise he would not be sure to make a shot. This season, his regular season three-point shooting percentage of 31.7% and 1.1 hits a career high, almost all of which were easy to shoot, and that was the most accurate.
The Eastern Army changed defense, James went to deal with Guo Xu and asked his brother Wade to defend Xiao Si.
Paul sighed in his heart that the gap between him and Guo Xu was still very big, and his scoring ability could not force the opponent to change his defense.
During the training camp in the Dream Eighth Team, Paul had a good relationship with the Three Heroes of Fengchen. He often had a competition and it was difficult for him to score against Wade's defense.
Guo Xu started running without the ball. Under Yao Ming's cover, he received a pass from Paul on the right. James was very active in chasing and defending, but it was useless. Guo Xu made a very fast ball and gave Xiao Si a free cut in the middle while running.
Wade was at a disadvantage in defending Si's height. He was half a head short. No matter how hard he jumped, he had to jump early to block the inside. Si's quality was not a vegetarian. He scored a single hand dunk at the basket. Howard followed Duncan and failed to defend. 13 to 5.
In the celebrity competition, the "Warcraft" becomes a "Happy Beast". It is impossible for him to do his best to make up for defense and assist in defense.
The Eastern Conference offense is still the main one-on-one challenge. Garnett missed a single Duncan jump shot, and Yao Ming grabbed the rebound.
In the positional battle, Guo Xu first took the cover from the side to catch the ball, and then passed the ball to Xiao Si who was standing in the middle. The West led by more than one point in the score, and Xiao Si also started to perform, hitting Wade with three-pointers without fake moves, and he made a very determined move.
Wade could not cover this ball. Xiao Si, who played at home, specially practiced three-pointers during training and wanted to prove his comprehensiveness in this way. He prepared very well and scored the ball. 16 to 5.
The audience gave Xiao Si a warm applause, and the two major stars at home took charge of all the Western Conference opening scores.
Wade already wants to curse. During this period, the Western Conference's offense was all about him. Nash is obviously a defensive black hole, so why not attack him?
