The Pacers have finally ended their losing streak!

Coach Frank Vogel could also breathe a sigh of relief, and he now looked at Xu Xuan with appreciation in his eyes.

The young man lived up to his expectations and withstood intense pressure from Kobe Bryant in the fourth quarter to lay a solid foundation for their final victory.

"Hey, this deal is pretty good!"

In the first game of the new team, Xu Xuan was able to hand over 30 points, 4 assists, and 4 rebounds, compared to Solomon Hill, who was traded to the Knicks, only had 4 points, 3 assists, and 7 rebounds in the first game in New York.

The rebounds are not bad, but compared to Xu Xuan's data, they are still too far behind!

"It would be nice to be able to play with that stat every game...... Heh, what was I thinking? It's a pipe dream......"

After the game, the media reporters certainly praised Kobe Bryant.

I heard that although it was the loser, the number of media reporters at the Lakers' post-game press conference was still several times that of the Pacers.

"A group of CBA teammates dragged down the volute, scored more than half of the team's points, and the game could still be lost, and the Lakers seemed to be really hopeless."

"It is highly recommended that Volute swap out all the other people! What are they? ”

"It's too much to replace them all, but ...... Hey, forget it, just change it, it's useless to keep that waste, it doesn't matter......"

It doesn't matter......

The so-called

so

target

Heart-piercing!

After the game, Xu Xuan and Jeremy Lin said hello, even if they both stayed in the Knicks, they didn't seem to have any common language, and after a few words of greeting, Xu Xuan returned to the locker room to take a shower.

In the evening, Coach Frank personally paid out of his own pocket and invited the members of the team out for a big meal, and it seemed that after the end of the 8-game losing streak, his heart began to clear.

And that's not all!

Even the rest of the Pacers look at Xu Xuan differently now, Xu Xuan was completely blown up by Kobe Bryant on the defensive end in this game, but he also let people see his sharp edges and corners on the offensive end!

This is a young man with a bright future!

Unexpectedly, Xu Xuan established his prestige in the first battle!

......

On the way back to the apartment, Xu Xuan opened his attribute panel.

Xu Xuan: Male

Age: 19

Rating: 500

Possession of Talents:

Stephen Curry's three-point – gold

Aaron Iverson's breakthrough – gold

Russell Westbrook's body – gold

Jason Williams' pass – Gold

The four talents have not yet advanced, but there is no hurry, there are a lot of things that have happened during this time, resulting in a lot of time for him to put on training, so he has to concentrate on training and talent advancement, but in addition to this matter, there is one more thing that needs to be done.

Xu Xuan's eyes looked into the distance, and this moment was extremely profound......

The Pacers have really been a "fateful" team in recent years.

Back in the Reggie Miller era, this team would have been a strong team, but it never won a championship. They were beaten by the Bulls in the 1998 Eastern Conference Finals, beaten by O'Neal in the 2000 Finals, and at the top of their game in 2004, they were beaten by the Auburn Hills Palace Brawl, and Reggie Miller retired without a championship.

It's just that this is not the most tragic thing for them - since 2000, the Pacers have had a total of 3 most improved players, each of which is a good core of the team, however, these 3 most improved players seem to be "cursed", all of them have suffered injuries.

The first is Jermaine O'Neal, also known as "Little O'Neal".

In the 01-02 season, O'Neal Jr., who wore the Pacers No. 7, entered the peak in this year, averaging only 12.9 points and 9.8 rebounds per game the previous year, and his average data soared to 19.0 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per game in this season, thus getting the most improved player. O'Neal Jr. has become another future for the Pacers' rise, and he is indeed competitive enough, and has been steadily improving in the following years, and once entered the MVP discussion.

However, in the 2004 playoffs against the Pistons, O'Neal Jr. unfortunately suffered a knee injury, which not only made the 61-21 Pacers miss the Finals that year, but also made O'Neal Jr. gradually fall off the altar

After O'Neal Jr., the other core of the Pacers is Danny Granger.

Granger was originally just a 17th overall pick, but after joining the Pacers in 2005, the competitive Granger improved by leaps and bounds for four consecutive years.

He averaged just 7.5 points per game in his rookie season, 13.9 points in his second season, and 19.6 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists in his third season — and his rise was key to the Pacers' choice to give up O'Neal Jr.

However, this was not the end of the road for Granger, as in the 2008-09 season, the first year after O'Neal Jr. was sent away, Granger averaged 25.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game with little change in playing time, and was not only selected as an All-Star, but also as the most improved player of the year.

In the years that followed, Granger led the Pacers to a great stride in the East, and he was the team's absolute big brother on the court and in the locker room, but his peak was short-lived.

In 2012, Granger also suffered a knee injury, which led to an indefinite break in the 2012-13 season, which ended up playing just five games.

After his return, Granger suffered another ankle injury, which led to a near-cliff decline in his career, averaging 18.7 points per game before 2012, but after 2012, he played only 75 games in three seasons and never scored in double figures.

After that, everyone is very clear about the matter of "pickled peppers", and during the preparation for this year's men's basketball World Cup, pickled peppers experienced the terrifying "broken leg incident".

For Pickle Pepper, the fortunate thing in the misfortune is that the injury is a hard fracture, not a ligament injury, and the impact on his career is relatively less serious than a ligament injury, but the horror of the picture is ...... Hiss!

Can't mention it again!

Such a Pacer is both distressing and makes people wonder, can't this team really do something "earth-shattering"?

Otherwise, why was it a fatal blow just when it was about to rise?

Xu Xuan didn't believe it, and he was sure that the person he was about to meet wouldn't either!

Paul George!

This is the person Xu Xuan wants to see the most in the walkers!

......

On the morning of December 16, someone saw Xu Xuan walking into Pickle Pepper's mansion in Polis City, and heard that Pickle Pepper opened the door himself.

I don't know what the two talked about, but the insider only saw that almost an hour later, Xu Xuan came out of his mansion with a smile on his face, and it was sent by Pickle Pepper himself.

This news has given many people different reverie......
