Chapter 289: A God-Given Opportunity

The JBA regular season is already halfway through, and the United States on the other side of the ocean, the NBA regular season is also catching up with the schedule that was pulled down before. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

“move~~move~~,yes~!!”

In Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana, head coach Vogel loudly guided the players' training in the training hall of the NBA Eastern team Indiana Pacers.

Since the start of the postponed NBA regular season, the Pacers have done quite well, biting the Miami Heat team in the first place.

And the freshman in the team, Xiandao Zhang, seems to be more and more adapted to the life of Yincheng, and he is becoming more and more familiar with the team.

Although Xiandao's playing time is still very limited, however, in this limited time, Xiandao's performance is still quite stable, and I believe that as this performance continues, I believe that Xiandao's position in the head coach's heart will become higher and higher.

Don't ask for a starter, being able to enter the regular rotation lineup is enough for Rukawa Kaede~!!

Because this season's NBA was delayed by two months, the schedule is relatively denser than before.

Many teams have had "back-to-back" ~ such terrifying schedules.

The Pacers are the team that has experienced such a schedule.

The "back-to-back" schedule is not only a test of the players' physical strength, but also a high demand for the team's talent pool.

With such a tight schedule, injuries are likely to occur, and the Pacers are a team that is deeply affected by injuries.

Don't look at Vogel shouting around on the sidelines, he is very passionate, and the players on the field are missing a lot.

The first is the "boss" of the team - Danny. Granger.

The first "back-to-back" after the start of the regular season, before the third game, Granger withdrew from the game due to a recurrence of an old shoulder injury during a breakaway in the game.

Since then, it has been on a daily watch list.

Although the players in the daily watch list are not too seriously injured, but if you want to return to the field, you still need some patience, and in the process of recuperating from injuries, the most taboo is to risk coming back early~~

Granger's injury retirement is indeed bad news for the Pacers, who are aiming to impact the Heat's position as the leader in the East.

Starting power forward - David. West.

West, who is in his playing years, has always been a player with a technical flow, and he rarely has injuries, but this injury is completely due to fatigue.

While West wasn't on the daily watch list, Granger was fortunate in that his return date was set.

Probably at the end of the regular season, this super practical power forward will return to the team.

The lack of a starting power forward and a shooting guard is a huge loss for the Pacers, but the Pacers' record is still very good.

These credits are all due to the team's small forward who has emerged since the beginning of this season - Paul. George.

As the No. 10 show in the class of 2010, George's physical fitness is undoubted, and being able to participate in the All-Star Slam Dunk and stage a glow-in-the-dark slam dunk is the best proof of this.

With excellent physical attributes and an extraordinarily long arm span, George has shown a lot of potential on the defensive end.

Because for any superstar, the defense is definitely top-notch.

However, George's previous criticism is his state on the offensive end, and his up-and-down shooting has always been his weakness.

However, since the start of the season, things have improved a lot, especially in the area of mid-to-long-range shooting, and George has made great progress.

Although the Pacers are a team that stands on defense, George's offense is especially important when the main scoring points are falling due to injuries.

If there is a player in the East who can be well developed to face James in the future, Paul . George, definitely the right choice.

The Pacers, who are actively preparing for the game at the team's base, will next face another strong team in the East, the Atlanta Hawks, at home.

"Brush~~"

"Brush~~"

Xiandao, who practiced long-range shooting on the field, hit consecutive hits, and it seemed that Xiandao was ready.

As a civilian team, the Hawks' regular season results are not bad every year, but when it comes to the playoffs, it is the stage of superstars, and the Hawks, a team without superstars, will have a hard time going too far.

"If the Pacers want to beat this opponent, they need to reduce turnovers and reduce outside shots, and a team like the Hawks who catch the counterattack and have a clear strategy must not follow their rhythm."

Before the game, the commentator analyzed.

This narrator is very familiar to us, with a shiny hairstyle, bell-like eyes, and an exaggerated big mouth, he is the legendary star of the Pacers - Reggie. Miller.

As a legend of the team, Miller will appear on the sidelines of the commentary box every game, and participate in the game in another capacity.

It's like a kind of inheritance, passed down from generation to generation.

In the starting lineup on the Pacers' side, Lance. Stephenson replaced Gran as the team's starting point guard.

Lance certainly doesn't score as much as Granger, but Lance is more of a two-way guard who can create shooting opportunities for his teammates and revitalize the team's offense.

However, as a defender, Lance's scoring ability still needs to be developed, and without the threat of offense, the opponent's defense will be very calm~~

Our Sendo is still actively warming up, and since Granger's injury, Sendo's playing time has also skyrocketed. Every game, for Xiandao, is an opportunity.

Sometimes, all it takes is an explosive performance to prove that you can get your ground in the league.

After the start of the game, the two sides showed the strength of the strong teams in the East, and the score was always tight.

However, on the Pacers' side, it seems that Lance is a little out of shape.

Reims took the ball and slotted into the box with the help of center forward Hibbert.

"Du~!!!"

However, before he reached the penalty area, Reims's ball had a bad understanding with his teammates, and the ball was passed directly to the front row of spectators.

Halfway through the second quarter, this was Lance's fourth turnover.

Lance ran back to the backcourt with his head down in frustration, and Vogel on the sidelines had a tangled expression.

If Lance's performance continues, I believe that the opportunity for Xiandao to play will not be far away~~

"Oh~~~~"

Before Lance's next mistake came, Sendo ushered in the opportunity to play.

Granger was unable to play due to injury, Lance's state was up and down, and the Pacers could use the scoring guard, only Xiandao was left, in this environment, for Xiandao, it was simply a "godsend~!! ”

"Yay~!!"

Although this is not the first appearance of Xiandao at the Banker's Life Arena, the fans still welcomed Xiandao with quite warm applause.

It's rare to be able to play this kind of anxious game before.

After Sendo came on the field, he quickly received the ball.

Maybe this is the tactic formulated by head coach Vogel for Xiandao~~

Xiandao held the ball and dribbled the ball very confidently, and Xiandao did not single with his back this time, but faced the attack of the basket.

Seeing that the other players didn't move, it seems that Xiandao is ready to go one-on-one.

The continuous change of direction in front of the body, plus the dribble under the crotch, a dribble on the side is also a step back, and it is directly a jump shot with a little backlash~~~ (to be continued.) )
