Chapter 208: No, He's Just Your Stepping Stone!
As one of the few highlight-point battles at the end of the regular season, the matchup between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder kicked off with deafening cheers.
Kobe Bryant, who was sitting in front of the TV watching the live broadcast, was a little surprised by Xu Xuan's terrifying popularity, and when he and Pickle Pepper stepped into the arena together, all the Indian City fans wearing white players were standing and cheering.
"Xu Xuan is really worn by fans"
Barkley commented.
What about Denima!
Pompous!
It's too TM pompous!
Ball Daddy, who was far away in California, saw such a picture on live TV, and immediately said disdainfully.
He patted his son on the shoulder and said, "Lonzo, see it, this is the guy I said in heaven, a flashy guy, you have to see him clearly, he will be your first stepping stone in the NBA...... Of course, if he can wait until you get into the NBA......"
Lonzo Bauer, the little ball brother, blinked a pair of green eyes and nodded as if he didn't understand......
Is this my future opponent?
"No, he's just a stepping stone for you!" Daddy told him with a serious face.
Brother Qiu: "......"
Why does it always feel like something terrible is happening?
......
"Not surprisingly, Roy didn't disappoint us in the slightest, and the Thunder got the ball on the first offense."
The jumper on the Thunder's side was "Aquaman" Adams, one of Xu Xuan's teammates at the Rookie Challenge.
"Oh, the Thunder's offense is so fast!"
Can Wei Shao lead the team unhappily?
Xu Xuan had already prepared and went back to the past as soon as possible.
But.......
Bang!
Wei Shao was like a bolt of lightning and brutally broke through Xu Xuan's defense!
This TM is a tank, ah, this is ......
Xu Xuan was speechless, his defensive position this time was not bad, but was there any use?
In the face of Wei Shao's breakthrough, Xu Xuan's defense was like paper.
"It's so hard!"
After being brutally squeezed away by Wei Shao, Xu Xuan directly gave up the pursuit in the rear and began to turn around and run back to his side in the half.
"Bang dang!"
The Hebbert defense under the basket was serious, and Wei Shao threw the board and didn't score.
Hibbert picked up the rebound with a roar and looked pleased with his defense.
Xu Xuan pursed his mouth, he really wanted to say that Wei Shaojin under the basket didn't score, in fact, it didn't have much to do with your defense......
"Hibbert gave the ball to Pickle Pepper, and Pickle Pepper passed it again! In the front court, Xu Xuan received the ball! β
"Huh? What do I see? The Pacers played a fast break? β
The Pacers have always been experts in positional warfare, but they didn't expect this lineup to come up, and the first offense would choose to counterattack quickly!
Is it because of the comeback of pickled peppers?
Before, the Pacers couldn't play fast because others were too slow, and there were too few people who could dominate the ball, only Xu Xuan was alone, and George Hill was also one, but his offensive ability was limited, and it was easy to make mistakes once he was chased.
The key is that for other teams, the threat point is only Xu Xuan alone, and now there is one more!
"The Thunder team was a little caught off guard, and they are now thinking about who to guard, because Pickle Pepper has also hit the frontcourt!"
Against whom?
Whoever is caught, who is guarded against!
Coach Brooks shouted from the sidelines.
Wei Shao came in like a whirlwind, Xu Xuan glanced at it, and instantly had an idea in his heart.
"Xu Xuan's speed is very fast! But Wei Shao's speed is also very fast! β
Wei Shao was too active, and immediately killed him after throwing the board and not entering!
"Not good!"
Seeing Wei Shao's movements, the Pacers fans at the scene were suddenly shocked.
"Going to be broken? What a dangerous dribble! β
Is it dangerous?
Not dangerous at all!
I saw that at the same time as Wei Shao just made a steal, Xu Xuan suddenly pressed the ball down, and just when everyone couldn't figure out what he was going to do, Xu Xuan directly slapped the ball to the side and back!
Pass the ball!
Wei Shao immediately turned his head, but it was too late, all he saw was a white shadow flashing like lightning from behind!
Number 13?!
Paul George?
Before Wei Shao could retrieve the appearance of the 13th in his mind, he heard a ...... in his ears
Bang!
Under the gaze of the audience, Pickled Pepper jumped up and dunked!
Burst!
"Wow! This also dares to jump? It's really a pickled pepper! Someone smacked his tongue and seemed to be in disbelief at all this.
Pickled pepper was a good buckle general before, but after being so seriously injured, he dared to buckle like this, how many days has it been better?
0-2, Pacers score first!
A pass from Xu Xuan, a dunk from Pickled Pepper.
After the pickled pepper landed, he slapped Xu Xuan, and both of them felt that the cooperation between them was becoming more and more tacit.
"What a wonderful picture!"
Wei Shao was not satisfied, and after bringing it over to the front court, he directly waved his teammates away, he wanted to play singles!
"Wei Shao wants to single Xu Xuan! Judging from the situation just now, Wei Shao occupies the absolute initiative! β
But......
Wei Shao suddenly took a big step, Xu Xuan was not fooled......
Well?
Didn't get it?
Wei Shao glanced at Xu Xuan with slanted eyes, and then took another big stride.
Xu Xuan was still unmoved......
That's embarrassing!
"Hah! Russell's feints did not deceive Xu Xuan. β
"Also, Xu Xuan himself is an expert in playing fake moves, so he can naturally see Russell's reality and reality!"
However, the feints have no effect, which does not mean that Wei Shao has no other ways to attack!
Dribbling, dribbling, the rhythm suddenly changed......
Logo Action - Little Zombie Jumper!
This ball is here!
Xu Xuan spread his hands, but there was no pity, Wei Shao's little zombie jump shot was already difficult to prevent, the rhythm changed too fast, he was still dribbling in the last second, and he was already shooting in the next second.
"Huh? Xu Xuan: This is ...... Found the pickled pepper block? β
"Not a good idea, is it?"
The Thunder's forward is Andre Robertson, who is only a sophomore but is known for his defense, with a defensive efficiency of 102 in his rookie season.
Certainly not a good idea.
Compared to Wei Shaolai, Robertson's defense is definitely more than a step stronger.
However, Xu Xuan didn't think about playing this ball by himself.
crossoverοΌ
It's a very elegant crossover!
Robertson's eyes flashed, Xu Xuan's breakthrough action was really gorgeous!
Want to get past me, though?
No way!
This time he came prepared.
Attack your nakedness!
Huh?
Wait a minute!
How does this sound so rogue?
"Danger!"
This is the female fans on the sidelines, and they all cover their eyes and dare not look down.
Xu Xuan rolled his eyes helplessly, dangerous...... Seeing that you are frightened, I don't know what do I think has anything to do with you......
"It's passed!"
"Xu Xuan didn't choose to fight by himself! Xu Xuan passed the ball to the pickled pepper on the right! β
Pickled pepper did not hesitate, as soon as he saw Wei Shao standing in front of him, he directly pulled it up and threw it!
Three-point shot!
Bang!
Direct hits!
