Everyone in the world thought Wei Guo and Kobe were going head-to-head, except for Wei Guo.
A 40+ streak... this kind of high score is really no challenge for Wei Guo, a 50+ streak would be more like it.
After their winning streak, the Suns are under immense pressure in every game. They want to extend their winning streak, and all their opponents want to break it.
This period...
Whoever can break the Suns' winning streak will be elevated to god-like status, making the prospect extremely tempting.
......
The Raptors and Suns engaged in a high-scoring offensive battle!
This is the Suns' rhythm...
Before the first quarter was over, both teams had already scored over 30 points. Bosh's low-post offensive skills were very diverse. As Wei Guo said, this skinny guy with dreadlocks who looks like a tall homeless man should not be underestimated.
With 1 minute and 17 seconds remaining, the first quarter will end.
The Raptors are on offense.
Jalen Rose cuts along the baseline, Peterson stands outside the three-point line to facilitate, and the basketball flies into Jalen Rose's hands like a cannonball!
"Whoosh!!!"
Rose made a reverse layup.
"Huh, Jaylen scored?"
Head coach Mitchell breathed a sigh of relief. "He can get a good night's sleep tonight."
The player under the most pressure for the Raptors is not Bosh, not Alston, not head coach Mitchell, but Jalen Rose. He may have to face Wei Guo's defense all night, and scoring a single point will not be easy.
Switch back!
Jalen Rose stood behind Wei Guo, who looked down and asked, "Can we score some points?"
"happy..."
Jalen Rose has a very sexy full beard that goes around his mouth, and he has trimmed it. The beard looks like a capital "口" (mouth).
Before Wei Guo could even offer his praise, Rose added, "It's really not easy to score against your defense, but I did it."
"You're awesome!"
As he spoke, Wei Guo turned around and dodged Rose, retreating to the three-point line!
Nash's pass arrived instantly...
Wei Guo receives the ball and pulls up for a three-pointer!
"Whoosh!!!"
The basketball went into the net.
Jalen Rose rushed over but couldn't stop Wei Guo from scoring. He was puzzled... How could Wei Guo chat while keeping his attention on the game?
35:31!!
With Wei Guo's three-pointer, the Suns took a four-point lead.
If a player is seen chatting with an opponent on the field, the head coach will definitely yell at him and tell him to focus on the game. But if a player is chatting with Wei Guo, no head coach will object. If you can get Wei Guo to the corner for a smoke, the head coach will even give the player an award after the game.
Best defensive player!
Wei Guo is probably the superstar in the league with the fewest celebrations. After each score, he silently returns to defense. Only after completing a super dunk or a block will he let out a roar.
The Raptors are on offense.
Alston looked for an opportunity and passed the ball to Bosh. Bosh received the ball outside the paint, turned around and got past Marion with a very long turn, and went straight to the basket!
With Stoudemire helping defend under the basket, Bosh launched a powerful shot, seemingly riding on Stoudemire's back.
"Bang!!!"
A powerful dunk.
"Wow!"
The arena erupted instantly; this was the Raptors' home court.
Even Cummings and the others were shocked. This turnaround dunk was truly amazing and it was definitely one of the top ten plays of the week, and it even had a chance to make it into the top ten plays of the month.
Bosh was also very excited...
After scoring, he pounded his chest and roared at the camera, "E on!!! E on!!! E on!!!"
"I wish I could be as happy as him."
Wei Guo shrugged and responded with a long-range three-pointer.
38:33!!
At the end of the first quarter, the Suns led by 5 points.
Wei Guo played 8 minutes, scoring 17 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block. These stats are too ordinary for Wei Guo. However, the possibility of preventing Wei Guo from scoring 40+ points tonight is very small.
Everyone knows...
What's most terrifying about Weiguo is its stability; the phenomenon of going from godlike to utterly terrible in one quarter to utterly terrible in another has never happened to Weiguo.
......
On the Raptors' bench, two rookies who had just entered the league surrounded Jalen Rose.
"Senior, what was it like fighting against Wei Guo?"
"He's very difficult to defend against..."
"Wei Guo is my idol. Whenever he shoots, I feel like the ball is going in. Of course... you did your best in defense, senior."
"Try your best?!"
Jalen Rose smiled wryly. Can't these two little brats just shut up?
"Senior, why aren't you saying anything?"
"......"
"Senior, don't be discouraged!"
"......"
"Senior, it's okay if you can't defend, you can still score!"
"......"
"senior..."
"senior..."
"senior..."
"Shut up!!!"
"Oh~~~"
The world finally quieted down. Brown draped a towel over himself and listened to head coach Mitchell explain the tactics.
......
In the first five minutes of the second quarter, both sides substituted their reserve players.
In this fierce battle, the Raptors failed to catch up, and the Suns also failed to widen the gap. The rested starters returned to the court.
The Suns are on offense.
It's Weiguo again...
He received a pass from Nash at a 45-degree angle and shot over Rose!
"Whoosh!!!"
The voice was like a nightmare, and Ross was absolutely fed up with it.
Weiguo scored again!
They shot it all in his face... but he didn't even have the courage to fight back.
Wei Guo's release point is too high. When defending, you have to position yourself in advance. Once you give Wei Guo a chance to shoot, it is very difficult to interfere with his shot. Whether it goes in or not is entirely up to fate.
Jalen Rose could almost hear the team's two rookies discussing Wei Guo's shot again. They were like Wei Guo's little fanboys, their tone full of admiration for him. It was a pity that these two second-round picks didn't even get a chance to play. Rose really wanted to take them out of the game and let them experience what it felt like to be ravaged by Wei Guo.
The Raptors had a great shooting night, except for Rose... Rose might have had a good game too, but Wei Guo kept guarding him, so he became the team's fifth offensive option.
Near the end of the first half, Alston, who made 5 of 7 three-pointers, ran over to comfort Jalen Rose, "Man... with us here, we have hope of beating the Suns. Don't think about getting blown out by Weiguo."
Jalen Rose, “…”
If you're so good, then you go play! If you're so good at defense, then you defend! Why am I the one who gets injured?
Jalen Rose is suffering!
He's faced off against Kobe, McGrady, and Iverson, and he couldn't stop any of them.
