Chapter 370: I can't afford to mess with my birthday
After a six-game winning streak, the Pacers are now very excited up and down, not only because Pickles Pepper has immediately shown their superhuman strength after their return, but also because their championship dream this year has taken another step forward. If the current lineup continues, it should not be difficult for the Pacers to win this year's championship.
But this is not the time for them to start celebrating, because after the game with the Nets, they will rush to Boston non-stop, because they are going to face the Celtics back-to-back, the Celtics have indeed improved a lot after getting Thomas Jr., but when the Pacers only had one Ye Xuan, they all lost, and now that Pickled Pepper is in great shape after returning, this must not blow up the Celtics' head?
However, the Pacers' side is obviously not ready to simply win this game, they also have to celebrate wantonly on the opponent's home court, because today is Ye Xuan's birthday, that's right, on April 2nd, Ye Xuan's 21st birthday is coming quietly, although he still has to play in distant Boston, instead of going home and hugging his girlfriend to have a good time, but for Ye Xuan, he is used to it, in his previous life, Ye Xuan had a total of one birthday, that is, his 18th birthday. Later, he either simply spent it in the dormitory, or simply ignored this day, so Ye Xuan didn't think that there was anything to celebrate on his birthday.
Last year, Ye Xuan had been brought to this world by the system, but at that time, Ye Xuan was still working hard to integrate into the team, so at the end of last year's birthday, only Shen Wei accompanied him to celebrate a little. But this year is different, even if Ye Xuan has not established his status as the boss now, at least he is already one of the two cores of the Pacers, so a group of players, including Ye Xuan's loyal dogleg Solomon Hill, are thinking about helping Ye Xuan brush up on a good-looking, meaningful data in this game, just like Ye Xuan did in the Rookie Challenge.
As a result, the unlucky one became the Celtics, Ye Xuan decisively accepted the kindness of his teammates at the beginning, and began to shoot wildly, when facing the opponent's not particularly strong team, Ye Xuan's single-core strength is enough to crush the opponent, not to mention that there are pickled peppers on the side to escort now, and Ye Xuan's state today is also very good, only 6 minutes into the first quarter, Ye Xuan has already shot 5 three-pointers under the cover of his teammates, and the other two points Ye Xuan did not fall, Two layups and a 2+1 brought a total of 22 points to Ye Xuan.
After the TV pause ended, Ye Xuan suddenly changed his appearance as an offensive madman and began to play assists, not because Ye Xuan was tired of brushing points, but because Ye Xuan wanted to brush up his assist data in this game. As a result, the Celtics were tragic again, it was difficult for Ye Xuan to defend when he attacked with the ball, but fortunately, when Ye Xuan attacked, they didn't touch the ball at other points, and the Celtics team still wanted to drag it for the time being, and wait until the opponent had no physical strength and was waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, but Ye Xuan was suddenly a team now.
As a result, Ye Xuan, who scored 22 points in the first six minutes of the opening game, swiped assists in the rest of the first quarter, and once again used 6 minutes to brush his assists to 7, and all the goals of the Pacers in the first quarter were all related to Ye Xuan, 22 points and 7 assists, which also brought 37 points to the Pacers. The Celtics' stats were not so satisfactory, with only 20 points in a single quarter and 17 points in a single quarter.
In the second quarter of the game, the Celtics also looked a little discouraged, although Thomas and Smart on the court still had a little fighting spirit, but in the face of a huge pit of nearly twenty points, they also seemed a little powerless. However, because the game was only one quarter, the two teams did not directly replace all the main forces, but still used the main force to fight in the second quarter of the game, Ye Xuan played the first quarter of the game, so in the second quarter, it was not replaced until the game had been played for 4 minutes, and Ye Xuan, who was replaced, also began to brush up his assists again.
First, a hand-handed pass after the breakaway helped Hibbert dunk easily, and then a breakaway shot allowed Pickles to get an open three-point opportunity from the outside. -Smith finished an open catch that was comparable to a slam dunk contest. Watching the Pacers' performance, the Celtics' home audience began to cheer for Ye Xuan and others.
At the end of the second quarter, Ye Xuan's data at this time had quietly come to 24 points and 15 assists, in the 8 minutes of playing time in the second quarter, Ye Xuan had basically been looking for opportunities for his teammates in addition to shooting two free throws, Ye Xuan seemed to have made up his mind to brush up on assists in this game, so he kept passing, if it weren't for the fact that the opponent was also aware of Ye Xuan's thoughts, so he began to cut off Ye Xuan's passing line intentionally or unintentionally, Ye Xuan's assists at this time may be able to rise a few.
However, the Pacers still led the poor Celtics by 23 points at the end of the first two quarters, and although the Pacers played a little too utilitarian in the second quarter of the game, it was basically the kind of play that his teammates shot after Ye Xuan's pass, but because of the presence of pickled peppers, the Pacers still won the opponent by 6 points.
led the opponent by 20 points into the second half, and there was basically no suspense in this game, so at halftime, the Pacers locker room was joking about Ye Xuan, while saying that Ye Xuan brushed the data too much today, and the result of using too much force was that others had no chance to fight back, and now it's okay, there should be no chance to play in the second half. After the end of the game, he asked Ye Xuan to have a good treat at the local bar in Boston.
However, they didn't expect that the Celtics were still brewing a big move, just like the Jedi counterattack after they fell behind by 19 points, they still didn't completely give up this game, especially when the audience turned against them, they couldn't give up, otherwise it would be more than just a matter of losing face.
