The supersonic strategy is to have Lewis defend the country alone!

Lewis is 2.08 meters tall, has a slender build, excellent jumping ability, and strong core strength.

Just now, I was facing Marion...

Marion failed to position himself properly so Lewis could get in front of him, and Lewis received the pass and immediately slammed it home with a dunk. Marion had a lot of trouble defending against that kind of offense.

Marion and Lewis are both the kind of players who are 'neither fish nor fowl'.

even...

These two players are roughly equal in status within the league.

He can play both power forward and small forward, and he has both disadvantages and obvious advantages in each position.

One's surname is Ma, and the other's surname is Liu (^_^)

Players in the league with similar surnames are all very impressive, such as Wilt Chamberlain from the Zhang family.

......

Wei Guo had heard a motivational story from a self-help guru.

There was a man named Kobe who, from the very first day he saw a basketball, fell in love with it.

He told his parents that he didn't want to do anything else in his life, all he wanted to do was play basketball... Of course, his parents disagreed. How could that be? He had to go to school. Kobe said that if he couldn't do what he loved in his life, he would rather die. Seeing how stubborn he was, his father had no choice but to let him play basketball.

As a result, Kobe won a world championship right away.

(Applause)

......

Wei Guo waved for his teammates to move aside, as he wanted to go one-on-one with Lewis.

Lewis became nervous...

Lewis took his defensive stance, placing his right hand on Wei Guo's shoulder. Since he wasn't actively exerting force, the referee didn't blow the whistle.

Squeeze a ball with one hand!

Wei Guo turned to face Lewis, and the moment the basketball landed, he executed a behind-the-back dribble. He then turned and pulled the ball back with a reverse crossover, feigning a drive while using another dribble with a different rhythm!

Lewis stumbled...

Wei Guo dribbled in a different direction, directly shaking off Lewis, and then pulled up for a jump shot.

"Whoosh!!!"

The basketball went into the net.

"Oh my God~~~"

The audience wanted to cover their faces, saying, "Lewis was so shaken he was completely disoriented."

Only those who have faced Wei Guo can understand how difficult he is to defend. There has never been a 2.16-meter tall player in the league who dribbles more skillfully and flashily than a guard.

Even Jordan would have been fooled by Wei Guo's combo, let alone Lewis.

27:23!!

The Suns are leading by 4 points.

The Supersonics are on offense.

Lewis tried to receive the ball in front of Wei Guo, but how could he succeed... Wei Guo, with his arms outstretched, circled around to Lewis again. Wei Guo would not underestimate any player.

Lewis has impressive running and jumping abilities...

If he gets the ball in front of him and doesn't commit a foul, Wei Guo might not be able to stop Lewis from dunking.

Positioning under the basket is a must-learn skill for interior players. Every excellent interior player is a master of positioning, and Wei Guo is a master among masters.

Lewis was very upset...

When he's stuck behind Wei Guo, he has a hard time receiving passes from his teammates, and he can't grab offensive rebounds when his teammates miss their shots.

"bang~~~"

Daniels, who came off the bench, missed a mid-range shot.

Wei Guo grabs the defensive rebound!

Richardson had already run to the frontcourt. Wei Guo dribbled past Lewis's defense, put the ball together with both hands and pushed it forward, sending the basketball flying towards Richardson.

Ray Allen tried desperately to catch up, but he was still a step too slow.

Richardson received the pass from Wei Guo, took a step forward and jumped, his body fully extended, like the bow arm of an arrow.

"Bang!!!"

A dunk that's a feast for the eyes.

From Wei Guo grabbing the defensive rebound to Richardson dunking the ball, the entire process took 3.7 seconds.

29:23!!

The point difference has widened, with the Suns leading by 6 points.

D'Antoni said, "Williams is the most crucial person on the team. The biggest change he has brought to the team is in defense, not offense."

"Isn't that... obvious?"

Cummings rolled his eyes.

There's a saying in the league: offense wins games, defense wins championships.

The Suns have the best record in the league this season, and D'Antoni thinks that even without Wei Guo, the Suns' current roster could achieve 60 wins in the regular season. But as for whether the Suns can win the championship, D'Antoni has no idea.

It can be seen from some games that even when the Suns are in the lead, D'Antoni is not at ease if Wei Guo is not on the court.

D'Antoni is not good at defensive tactics.

The Suns also lack defensive stalwarts. Stoudemire's individual defense is poor, and Johnson and Richardson are also somewhat lacking. The team's best defender is Marion.

As for Nash...

Even Nash's die-hard fans wouldn't dare say that Nash had any defense.

'The base is not attacked, and the defense is not carried out'

The fact that this saying has been passed down for so long speaks volumes.

......

The first quarter has ended.

35:27!!

The Suns lead by 8 points.

Wei Guo played for less than 5 minutes, scoring 5 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 0 steals, and 1 block.

Nash glanced at the statistics sheet in Cummings' hand and muttered, "The difference isn't that big."

"Isn't this a big difference?"

Cummings, with his sharp ears, retorted, "Wei Guo only played for a little over four minutes, yet he had two more points, two more rebounds, and one more block than you."

"Two points is a lot..."

"All right..."

Cummings was speechless; two points really weren't much.

The Suns aren't afraid of offensive teams like the SuperSonics. Comparatively, it's more difficult to play against teams like the Spurs or Pistons. The loss to the Timberwolves was also due to the Timberwolves' solid defense.

unless...

Ray Allen suddenly explodes with brilliance!

......

The second quarter was similar to the first quarter.

It's still a two-way battle...

Ray Allen had a poor three-point shooting night, making only one of his first five attempts. On the other hand, Daniels and Ridnour played well, avoiding guarding Wei Guo, and Lewis also made a few mid-range shots.

At the end of the first half, the Suns were unable to widen the score gap.

61:55!!

The Suns are only leading by 6 points.

Wei Guo seemed a bit preoccupied tonight, playing only 9 minutes in the first half, scoring 11 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, and 2 blocks.

Viewers can't help but worry...

Kobe Bryant next door scored 41 points again yesterday, setting a new record of 14 consecutive games with 40+ points.

In this scoring duel, Wei Guo averaged a higher score, even scoring 60+ points in four games. However, Kobe scored earlier. Wei Guo has only achieved 10 consecutive games with 40+ points. Does this mean that Wei Guo will lose his scoring duel with Kobe?

......

At the end of the first half, the SuperSonics players were preparing to return to the locker room when they discovered that the Suns players had not left.

"Um???"

Ray Allen turned around curiously. Did the Suns have a show? He also saw a staff member carrying a large orange bucket walking over.

At this time...

Wei Guo pushed the special fan to the center of the stadium, and a staff member handed him a microphone. "Please be quiet... I want to introduce a special fan to everyone."
