The Suns have been firmly in control of the initiative, each attack by Guo Xu as the starting point, he holds the ball to attack or attract defensive points to better team-mates.

Because the Suns play is a small ball tactics, there is a natural dislocation in the interior line, coupled with rookie Graham's lack of experience, Guo Xu reduced the number of shots, teammates are more likely to score.

"Little general" Johnson was forced to replace Graham in five minutes, replaced with Marquis Daniels to strengthen the defense, no replacement of the Mavericks will have to be beaten.

Looking only at the side data and the trial results, the Mavericks management and coaching team are full of expectations for Graham, because his physical fitness is so good, and he can shoot in the middle and long distance.

Unfortunately, as soon as he plays, Graham will show his prototype. He is always disappointing, as is the case in pre-season.

He doesn't have a strong desire to attack. He likes to stand still and wait for the ball to come out of the mobile phone meeting. He doesn't dare to break through with the ball. When he gets the ball, he often finds his teammates to pass it. On the defensive side, he made the coach crazy. He couldn't defend people one by one, especially without the ball. Howard often got rid of it easily by a counter run.

In single defense, Graham always wants to use his muscles to stop his opponent. He likes to snatch. Howard doesn't fight with him. He is at a loss in the system. When he breaks through the defense frame, he is easy to be moved by a simple change of direction. If he doesn't foul, the opponent can easily break into the basket.

The ball dealer is also an important talent, Graham belongs to the simple minded, four limbs developed player, similar to the magic team that is not Taylor Swift. He had the best body in his previous life and had no ball to play in six seasons.

At this time, the Mavericks management is very painful, because Howard is their favorite person, was intercepted by the sun in 2003.

Howard was of great significance to the Mavericks in his previous life, not only in providing firepower on the offensive side, he was also the best flank defender. Now the Mavericks do not have him, Amnesty Michael Finley, flank defense ability in the league can not be ranked. The Mavericks can make it to the playoffs, but they can't go far.

In the second half, the Suns replaced Haslem and Valerio, strengthened the defense of the forbidden area, and Dampier couldn't score easily. Howard, who scored 10 points, was replaced in the eight minutes with James Jones adding a three-point shot.

Jones's task was very simple. He defended and opened his feet. He played well and hit a three-point ball.

In the first quarter, the Suns were 36-26 ahead. Guo Xu made 3-for-4 shots and 1-in-3-pointer, scoring 7 points and 7 assists.

After a short break, Howard came on the bench, partnered with Ariza and Peyton on the outside, while Valerio and David Lee were on the inside.

Without Nene and Joe Johnson, the Suns rotation lineup is not as terrible as last season. They are no longer the "bench bandits" who often hang their opponents. However, they still compete with the Dallas substitutes led by Devon Harris, Stackhouse and Van Horne to maintain the superiority.

After Diop joined, the Mavericks interior defense has been improved, and Dampier can also keep the forbidden area after a rest. However, Diop in the offensive end of no role, substitute swing Adrian - Griffin is also a blue collar, the Mavericks rotation lineup has two people who can empty, excellent defense, difficult to score.

As soon as Guo Xu, Marion and Haslem came back, the sun's running and bombing tactics began to take off.

Diop or Dampier suffered a loss in speed. "Little general" Johnson made a wrong adjustment at this time, he replaced the big man, let Nowitzki and Van Horne partner inside, and the Suns fight attack.

Van Horn's condition is not as good as the year before. After 2003, he has not played a full season in any team. Even the Knicks with a lot of bad contracts can't look on him.

"Little general" wants him to come up to strengthen the attack, but Van Horn is no better than Dampier's scoring ability, shooting percentage is very low. He can't play Marion in position 4 and Haslem is easier to defend Nowitzki than Dampier.

Van Horn, on the other hand, is a defensive black hole, unable to keep up with Marion's speed, the latter scoring in a row under the fast break.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Van Horn, the top player in the same term as Duncan, retired in 2006, while Duncan was still struggling like a rookie, with a huge gap. And compared with many people of the same period, Van Horne's career is quite short. With his current defense, after becoming a free agent in the summer, few teams want him.

Mavericks coach group is very depressed, Van Horn on the stage is a black hole, do not play the boss dissatisfaction. Because Van Horne is the Mavericks' highest salary, this season to take 15.69 million dollars, Nowitzki's annual salary is only 13.84 million. In addition to the salary of amnesty captain Finley, the Mavericks' total salary this season has reached 98.46 million, but they still can't beat the suns.

Midfield Suns are 15 points ahead 62-47. Guo Xu scored two double figures in 18 minutes, 11 points and 12 assists.

Zhang reasonable evaluation said: "Guo Xu today will certainly win two doubles, assists than score more."

"He can really help his teammates to become stronger. Without three important players, Howard looks like an all star again today, and other players can score," Xu said

Zhang reasonable said: "Guo Xu 5 shot 4, free throw 2 2, the attack efficiency is really high, teammates have a chance, he can pass the ball, there is a single chance, he can also go."In the second half, "little general" let the two big men rest, sent a small lineup to fight with the Suns, he thought that this can also better prevent running and bombing.

But with Terry and Harris here, how can the Mavericks be better than the suns? Guo Xu has an advantage over Terry and Howard has an advantage over Harris. Haslem and Marion can reduce the scoring efficiency of Nowitzki and Stackhouse to a certain extent.

Guo Xu saw that the Mavericks were not covered and began to increase the number of shots. His method of play was simple. When the opponent was far away, he shook out the space and took a jump shot. When the opponent was close, he turned to a breakthrough.

Terry seems to be in place every time, but it can't be covered. Guo Xu hit three three three-point goals in a single quarter, and made two fouls with a misplaced breakthrough. In addition, he made a double handed dunk in the counterattack and cut 15 points and 2 assists in a single section.

The gap between the two sides was widened to 29 points, and three sections entered the garbage time.

The Mavericks fans watching the live broadcast are a little bit broken. This season, the Mavericks must be out of action again. The Suns have lost to this virtue. How can they win the championship?

In the end, Guo Xu continued to play, and D'Antoni sent bell, Ariza, Jones and David Lee.

Sun's arrangement is to let Guo Xu take the young substitutes to practice, so that they can play a better role in the team. Marion played 30 minutes, scored 24 points and 8 rebounds. He was off the court and had some unfinished business.

Guo Xu played 5.5 minutes at the end of the game, and the sun was 36 points ahead.

He went out for 35.5 minutes in total, scored 31 points, 3 rebounds, 17 assists and 1 steals. His shooting percentage was more than 70%, and his three-point shooting rate was also 50%. He hit all the free throws.

The Suns got off to a good start with a 124-91 win over the Mavericks.

Five of the team scored in double, Marion and Howard scored 20 +, and 11 players in rotation scored. Kukoch did not get the chance to play and watched the water fountain on the court.

New arrival Josh Powell didn't make the 12 man list, he didn't participate in the Suns pre-season and training camp, and lacked a tacit understanding with his teammates, so he was temporarily the most marginal person in the team.

Although he didn't get a chance to play, Powell cheered for his teammates on the sidelines, and the Suns' performance in the opening game was beyond his expectation.

He now believes that the Suns have a chance to defend the title
