One thought of heaven, one thought of hell.

Just two days after losing to the Grizzlies at home, the Pacers lost to another team that started on defense, the Utah Jazz, at the Bankers Living Arena.

In this game, the Jazz scored 6 double-doubles, and also got 13 steals and 7 blocks!

The final score was 97-76, and the Pacers only scored 76 points!

Everyone smacked their tongues and hissed!

This group of Utah bandits is so hot!

"It's hard to imagine winning a championship with the Golden State Warriors and so many teams devoting themselves to defense......"

"And judging by the results, this iron-clad defensive tactic has had a very significant effect."

"Is it Xu Xuantaicai? Is Xu Xuan, who has 80 points in 2K's eyes, not yet at such a level? ”

There is more noise on the Internet again.

The Pacers have lost two games in a row in the opening game, which obviously gives some trolls another chance to be demonic.

"Xu Xuan is a great player and played a great performance last season, but only last season!"

"Life has to go on, those teams won't stand still, Xu Xuan?

Scold! Can I laugh first? ”

You're laughing at Nima!

Smack!

McGee threw the phone on the bench in front of him, turned his head angrily, and looked at Xu Xuan's position: "Xu, they are really too much!" ”

"One-two, one-two, one-two......"

Xu Xuan did push-ups without looking back and said, "Excessive? Where is it excessive? You're not a dollar, and you expect these people to offer you as God every day? ”

"Uh......" McGee rubbed her head in embarrassment, "I mean, they're too quick to see the wind....."

"The first day you met them?" Tucker poked his nostrils in disdain, he had just finished a set of sprint sprints, and it would be sweating profusely.

McGee handed him a bottle of Gatorade, and Tucker took it, took a few sips, wiped the sweat from his head, and said in a deep voice, "Xu, do you want to suggest it to the coach, we ......"

The latter words were not said, but Xu Xuan knew that Tucker somewhat thought it was a problem with his playing style.

After these three games, except for the first game with 20 points, Xu Xuan's score in the remaining two games did not reach 20, or even 15!

One game is 14+10+4 and the other is 12+11+3.

Two double-doubles, but the score is so low......

Tucker felt that this was not the way Xu Xuan should play, in his impression, Xu Xuan should be the man who is omnipotent on the offensive end, assist?

What is the use of more assists?

Didn't you see that you still have to lose the game after taking a double-double?

Tucker is a very calm person, he himself has scored higher than Xu Xuan in two consecutive games, but this does not make him happy, in his mind, personal honor is secondary, and it is true to be able to help the team win!

It's not just him, the outside world is spraying the most points now in this area.

Xu Xuan didn't score much in these three games, but his shooting rate was extremely high!

Shoot 76% from the field and 70% from three-point range!

It can be called a hit rate against the sky!

But that doesn't change the final outcome.

"Xu, if you can, you don't have to pass us so many balls......"

Tucker touched his head a little embarrassed, unlike McGee, a heartless person, Tucker could obviously feel that Xu Xuan seemed to be deliberately reducing the number of his shots and giving them all the opportunities......

Where's this?

Xu Xuan is the boss of the team even if he is young, don't you see what attitude West and Hibbert have towards Xu Xuan?

Tucker didn't think that his status was higher than those two, he simply thought that Xu Xuan might want to take care of the two newcomers......

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Xu Xuan.

"You're thinking too much, PJ." Xu Xuan waved his hand: "Pass the ball to you because you can play, you have the ability to finish scoring, otherwise, if you let me pass it to you, I won't pass it." ”

"Relax, this season has just begun, and there is still a long way to go, I believe that you will definitely impress everyone, because you have this strength yourself!"

Seeing that a bowl of chicken soup for the soul had filled Tucker and McKido's ears with red ears and thick necks, Xu Xuan walked back to the locker room with a smile.

Others don't know that Xu Xuan knows very well in his heart how much role Tucker and McGee can play in the team.

Maybe you can't see it in the regular season, but in the playoffs, the intensity of these two will definitely surprise everyone!

"Well, LeBron, I'm sure you're going to love this gift I got for you......"

Seeing Xu Xuan walking away with a mysterious smile, McGee and Tucker looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.

After these three games, they performed so well that they were almost sprayed as fools by the media.

Angry or not?

Quite annoying!

Isn't it bad?

It's really bad, too.

But no matter how angry or bad they are, as long as they see Xu Xuan's sincere approval, these two people always feel that their whole body is full of endless power.

November 3rd.

After a three-day break, the Pacers traveled to Detroit to take on the Pistons on the road.

Last season's Pistons didn't have a good record, finishing only 12th in the East.

The Pistons build on last season's Zhuangshen, Reggie Jackson, and Ilyasova, and this year's free agency signed All Baines and Reggie Baroque.

These are two very good signings.

Baines is a very strong interior tough guy, especially good at grabbing frontcourt rebounds, and when he arrives, he can make up for the lack of an interior core on the Pistons' second line.

And he can also be a part-time power forward, think about it, if Zhuang Shen and Baynes form an interior "king bomb combination", who else in the league can play them in rebounding?

Reggie Baroque was also impressive, as he was the 25th pick in the first round in '13 and played as a swingman at the front line.

Last season in the Phoenix Suns, he averaged only a pitiful 0.4 points per game, but Xu Xuan knew that this guy had scored 10+ points in a single season more than once in later generations.

The most important thing is!

Both of these men are good defensively, and their joining has given the Pistons, a team that is born with a defensive factor, a new look as a whole.

"It's really tough for the Pacers, who have played against this defensive type of team for three games in a row...... Should I say they were lucky? Or is it luck? ”

What about Nyima!

A dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth!

"If the Pacers are willing to change their play, I still think they can do wonders......"

Before Kenny Smith could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a scene on the field......

"God, Xu Xuan passed the ball again! He's still reluctant to change his style of play! Even if the opportunity is put in front of him, Xu Xuan will give it away now! ”
