Chapter 224 Overturning the Grizzly Bear
After the Indiana Pacers game against the Milwaukee Bucks, the overwhelming negative news about Promise disappeared and was replaced by Promise scoring [-] points in the game against the Milwaukee Bucks Plus endless compliments for the gorgeous stats of eleven assists.It seems that for those news media, this almost perfect game can fully prove that Xu Nuo is capable of becoming the NBA's future No. [-] point guard, so those so-called "arrogant" and "arrogant" remarks There is no problem at all.
"It can be said that your outstanding performance in the game against the Milwaukee Bucks saved your image!" Ellen Page said to the promise, "If it weren't for your near-perfect performance in that game, you fought back powerfully After all those remarks that you are an arrogant and arrogant guy, maybe they are still accusing you now!"
"In this way, the Milwaukee Bucks have become my lucky team. Every time I play against the Milwaukee Bucks, it will bring me good luck." Promise said.
"Oh?" Ellen Page tilted her head and looked at Xu Nuo.
"This season we played against the Milwaukee Bucks for the first time, which made me get you." Xu Nuo said to Ellen Page with a smile, "This time playing against the Milwaukee Bucks, let me start from overwhelming Isn't it a good thing to be freed from negative news?"
"That's what it says." Ellen Page nodded and said.
"However, the reason why I was able to score so many points in the game against the Milwaukee Bucks was mainly because the Milwaukee Bucks were too weak." Xu Nuo said, "Moreover, the overall performance of our team in that game It's also pretty good!"
"So, do you still want to leave the Indiana Pacers now?" Ellen Page asked promised.
"I haven't thought about this issue in the past few days." Xu Nuo said, "Whether to leave the Indiana Pacers or not, we have to wait until the end of this season to make a decision."
Ellen Page curled her lips after hearing this, "After all, I still don't want to leave." Ellen Page whispered to herself.
As Ellen Page was saying this, Promise had picked up the ball and was about to leave the room and go to the court in the yard.
"Isn't there no training today?" Ellen Page asked.
"It is precisely because there is no training today, so I have to practice by myself." Xu Nuo said, "We still have five home games in a row, which is very helpful for us to consolidate the team's ranking. Now we are still ranked We are No. [-] in the Eastern Conference, but the Chicago Bulls behind us are catching up very closely, so we must win all these home games!" After Xu Nuo finished speaking, he walked out of the room holding the ball.
The game against the Milwaukee Bucks was just the beginning of the Indiana Pacers' six-straight home game. Game [-], against the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Memphis Grizzlies this season continued the team's strong performance last season. Last season, the Memphis Grizzlies successfully entered the Western Conference playoffs and eliminated the Western Conference's top San Antonio Spurs shockingly. Miraculously, it also made it to the second round of the Western Conference playoffs.Although the Memphis Grizzlies lost to the same young Oklahoma City Thunder in the tiebreaker of the second round, no one has questioned the strength of this young guard.The Memphis Grizzlies are still strong this season and are still ranked fifth in the Western Conference. It is no problem to reach the Western Conference playoffs again.
In this game, the collision between the two young teams has become a major focus in the league.Some people even believe that this game may even become a preview of the future NBA Finals.
In fact, such remarks are a bit too high for the Memphis Grizzlies.Although the future of the Memphis Grizzlies is limitless, there are still two more powerful young teams, the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Los Angeles Clippers, in the West.At the same time, traditional giants like the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks may not be opponents of young people.Therefore, the Memphis Grizzlies still have considerable difficulty in breaking out from the powerful Western Conference. At most, they can be eliminated in the second round of the playoffs like last season.
For the Indiana Pacers, it is not impossible to reach the Eastern Conference Finals or even reach the NBA Finals.Although the Indiana Pacers were only eliminated by the Chicago Bulls with a total score of 4:1 in the first round last season, the Indiana Pacers this season are extremely strong and are still ranked first in the Eastern Conference. The league's traditional powerhouses like the Miami Heat, Chicago Bulls and Boston Celtics have never lost the wind.Therefore, all Indiana Pacers players, including Xu, firmly believe that the team can reach the NBA Finals!
With the whistle of the referee on duty, the game between the Indiana Pacers and the Memphis Grizzlies at home began.
After the start of the game, the Indiana Pacers, who had home court advantage, obviously wanted to quickly establish a score advantage, so the players played more impatiently on the court.On the contrary, the visiting team, the Memphis Grizzlies, played more patiently, playing every ball steadily.The Memphis Grizzlies made it 14-8 after Memphis center Marc Gasol hit a mid-range jumper six points.In order to stabilize the emotions of the players, so as not to be led by more points by the opponent, coach Larry Brown hurriedly requested a timeout.
"There are 48 minutes in a game, we don't need to be impatient on the court, just slowly build up our advantage!" Coach Larry Brown said, "We need to be more patient and will The ball moved up and slowly looked for opportunities to attack."
After this timeout, Darren Collison, the team's starting point guard who promised to replace the team, stepped onto the court.
The reason why coach Larry Brown replaced Xu at this time is mainly because he wants to rely on promised passes to create scoring opportunities for his teammates, rather than relying on promised scoring ability to get more points. There are already three good offensive players in Danny Granger, David West and DeMar DeRozan, and the offense of center Roy Hibbert is also considered good.Therefore, Xu Nuo naturally understood what Coach Larry Brown intended to put him on the field, and began to repeatedly use the pass to penetrate the opponent's defense.Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley, who was facing Xu Nuo, had no way to stop Xu Nuo from assisting his teammates to score consecutively. Therefore, when the first quarter ended, Xu Nuo had sent out five assists, and these five assists also helped The Indiana Pacers ended the first quarter with a six-point lead over the Memphis Grizzlies 26:20.
Promise stayed on the court for the first few minutes of the second quarter, while the Memphis Grizzlies switched to Gilbert "The General" Arenas at point guard on the court.In the preseason of this season, Xu Nuo once played against the "General" Gilbert Arenas, and he also completely occupied the field advantage.This time the two fought against each other again, promising that there was no reason to show mercy.Under the promised defense, "General" Gilbert Arenas missed all four shots and scored no points in 5 minutes of playing time!And promised that he had already sent out seven assists and scored four points in a row, helping the Indiana Pacers to gain an eight-point lead with a score of 41:33.At the end of the first half, the Indiana Pacers continued to lead the Memphis Grizzlies by six points with a score of 49:43, and Xu Xu had scored six points and eight assists in the first half of the game alone.
In the second half of the game, Rudy Gay, the top scorer of the Memphis Grizzlies, began to show off and led the Memphis Grizzlies to even the score.But soon, Danny Granger made two consecutive outside three-pointers, stabilizing the Indiana Pacers' field situation.Since then, the Indiana Pacers have not let the lead fall by any means, leading all the way to the final moment of the game.In the end, the Indiana Pacers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies with a score of 91:80 at home, achieving three consecutive victories, and also stabilized the team's top position in the Eastern Conference.Although Xu Nuo only scored [-] points in this game, Xu Nuo sent [-] assists, and the team scored nearly [-] points through these [-] assists. This is the most important thing.
"With the current state of the team, it is not a problem to beat the New Jersey Nets and the Atlanta Hawks." After the game, Danny Granger, who scored a team-high 24 points, said.
"But after the New Jersey Nets and the Atlanta Hawks, we will once again face the Chicago Bulls and the Miami Heat." Promise said.
"Are you worried that we, who have just defeated them, will lose to them?" Danny Granger asked.
"Me?" Xu Nuo frowned and said, "I never had such an idea."
"That's right!" Danny Granger said with a smile and nodded.
