Chapter 779 [Record! Averaged 20 Assists per Game and Won the Championship! 】

The second game of the Finals continued at the Suns' home court in Phoenix. The game process was very similar to the last game. The Cavaliers dug a big hole for themselves at the beginning and never climbed out.

Because coach Mike Brown started "Big Z" Ilgauskas again, from this point alone you can see how rigid his coaching is. Big Z played for 20 minutes. The data shows that as soon as he plays against the opponent, his scoring efficiency will become very scary. He will take advantage of his weakness and throw three-pointers wildly.

In this case, a decisive coach will directly abandon Big Z without taking any chances. Brown did not have this determination. Letting Big Z start was purely out of habit without considering the consequences.

Guo Xu still didn't rest in the second quarter. He also ran more in this game. He suddenly hit two elevator doors to cover a jumper and hit a three-pointer. He frequently slipped to the baseline to receive passes from Roy to create mismatch opportunities, attracting insiders to switch defenses and then pass. Give Stoudemire an assist.

The Suns' pick-and-roll Cavaliers have been unable to defend well, and Stoudemire cannot be limited by one-on-one defense. He deserves to be selected for the best first team.

The Cavaliers' offense relies on James rushing inside, breaking through to attract double teams and then passing the ball to drive the team. The Suns can't defend because they lack a strong forward like Artest. If there is a strong man who can single-handedly defeat James, the Cavaliers will lose even more miserably.

Of course, James' efforts had no impact on the outcome of the game, they just didn't let the point difference widen too much. This allowed Guo Xu to fight for a while longer, which was exactly what he wanted.

Guo Xu played 6 minutes in the final quarter and played 42 minutes in the game. He made 10 of 15 shots, 5 of 9 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. He scored 27 points, 2 rebounds, and 18 assists, a huge double-double.

He failed to have 20+ assists in four consecutive games, and his opponents did not double-team him all the time, which made it easy for him to score when facing "Little Flying Squirrel" Stoudemire and Gibson.

Six members of the Suns team scored in double figures, winning 130-106 and leading 2-0.

The Cavaliers did not show any momentum of reversal when they returned to their home court. They lost by 27 points in the third game, which was not much better than the Suns' opponents in the first two rounds of the Western Conference.

Brown likes to use a human shield inside in the defensive system, and the defensive effect is very good in the Eastern Conference games. Big Z has an advantage because apart from O'Neal, there are no good centers in the Eastern Conference.

Krstic of the Nets is a softie, and Jason Collins is a blue-collar player; the Pistons' Ben Wallace doesn't need to worry about outside the penalty area, and substitute Muhammad's offensive end is mainly about attacking the basket.

The Hawks play small ball tactics, and Al Harrington plays a guest role as center a lot of the time, which is enough for the Cavaliers. When dealing with a team that focuses on positional warfare and whose interior players lack shooting range,

Only Big Z can use his own strengths.

Last season, the Cavaliers were swept without Stoudemire and Marion, and the Suns really couldn't play with the full lineup.

Stoudemire scored 30+ points in every game in the Finals and was the Suns' leading scorer in the playoffs. Boozer's guest appearance at center ended up being beaten mercilessly by Stoudemire, and it was equally difficult to send Biedrins to defend Stoudemire.

In the fourth game, the Suns won again, by only 15 points. It was the only game in which the score difference was less than 20 points, thus sweeping the Cavaliers 4-0 to win the championship.

Last season, the league asked the referees to give the Cavaliers enough home whistles to help them win a game and save face. This time, Stern did not say hello to the referees and left the Cavaliers to fend for themselves.

James' statistics in the finals were better than last year, averaging 28 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists per game. 60% of his points came from breakthroughs. His frequent crab walk layups were controversial. How else could he be assigned a home whistle under such circumstances? Unless other players in the Cavaliers also practice the crab walk well, can a whole crab team defeat the Suns, right?

Even if the Crabs are only a threat to the Suns, it is difficult to ensure victory because the penalty area is so large, players mainly break through, and there is not enough space.

Guo Xu deliberately reduced his shots in the last game. He only took 6 shots and hit 4 goals, 3 of which were three-pointers. Plus 2 of 2 free throws, he scored 13 points and 20 assists.

He was doing this to get assists. After three games, he saw the opportunity to average 20 assists per game in the finals. As long as this data is recorded, all assist records in the finals belong to him, 10 in a single quarter, 16 in a half, and in a single game. 24 times, 80 times in four games...

He also averaged 21 points per game, shooting 58.7% overall, 45.5% from three-point range, and 100% from the free throw line.

After the game, the scapegoats lost their temper and transformed into several teams of fans without blaming Guo Xu. Even when he is injured, he averages double 20 per game, and his shooting percentage is higher than that of the Cavaliers' inside players, and also higher than that of James. The only person with a higher shooting percentage than him is Stoudemire who shot 64.3% from the field. What a tragedy.

Online fans started a heated discussion.

"Whether Jason has surpassed Jordan, maybe some fans still think it is controversial, but in the history of the NBA, in terms of the ability to play with one leg, Jason is definitely the first. He can play double 20 casually."

"I feel like the Bulls who have won three consecutive championships will be swept away when they meet this Suns. Langley and Big Z have the same style and are very slow, and their offense is not as good as Big Z. Rodman can't guard Stoudemire at the 1st position. Asking Harper to defend Jason would lead to a life of doubt."

"Jason has won 6 championships in 7 years of his career, 4 consecutive championships, 4 MVPs, and 4 FMVPs. Isn't this super Jordan? Jordan has not won three consecutive MVPs."

"Fortunately, Jason has left the Lakers. If he had stayed with the Lakers, his evaluation would be very low. It doesn't matter how many championships he wins. Maybe they are all talking about Jordan's successor. We have to wait until Jordan's successor can throw away a few championships and lose his back. Only after Jason the Pot is driven away will people know how strong he really is."

Guo Xu was interviewed by reporters on the court and said that he was very happy to win the fourth consecutive championship and that he could relax his tense nerves. He also talked about filming a new movie and that he has a lot to do in the summer.

The Suns veterans had richer feelings. Clifford Robinson played 1 minute in garbage time, successfully ending his career. David Wesley didn't make the playoff roster, but he was still happy to get a ring at the end of his career.

After a while, the award ceremony began, and Guo Xu and his teammates once again won the championship trophy in the away game.

Guo Xu successfully won the FMVP. His speech was simple: "I was able to win the FMVP because I had so many assists. Therefore, this is a victory for the team."

He guessed that Stoudemire will have some ideas after this season. His statistics in the finals were also terrifying, averaging 32 points, 9.5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks per game. Without Guo Xu's statistics, he would definitely have won the FMVP, but now he can only play a supporting role.

Even Pippen wanted to be the boss of the Bulls. After Jordan retired, Pippen had a bad temper. He even left the game early in the playoffs if he was not allowed to shoot the buzzer-beater. Will Stoudemire be willing to be the second-in-command for the rest of his life?

All the media are reporting on the Suns winning the championship. Four consecutive championships are far more meaningful than three consecutive championships. One more championship can distance them from all teams in the league except the Celtics. For a while, they received rave reviews.

After returning to Phoenix, CCTV5's Chinese reporter conducted an exclusive interview with Guo Xu.

Guo Xu expressed some thoughts and said that he will go to China to do activities in the summer, but the time will not be too long. He also has to film a movie during the holiday, so the schedule of activities is quite full.

Phoenix held a championship parade. It was still at night, and there was nothing new compared to the past. However, this time the fans were more enthusiastic. Because of their fourth consecutive championship, the Suns' achievements will forever be recorded in NBA history.

If a team only wins one championship and does not win consecutive championships, it may be forgotten by fans over time, such as the Spurs. The Suns don't. When people mention the dynasty, people will definitely talk about the Suns. Guo Xu is no longer inferior to Jordan in terms of performance.

While interacting with the fans, Guo Xu, as a player representative, issued a declaration to continue winning the championship...
