Chapter 439: A New Season Begins

After ending TNT's talk show, Ye Xuan finally appeared in front of everyone again after a lapse of 3 months, seeing Ye Xuan's confident comeback declaration this time, the Pacers fans were also very happy, and at the same time, Ye Xuan's remarks on this show also triggered some discussions, some people felt that Ye Xuan excused the Pacers' ruthless trade, so he put the hat of driving away Hibbert on Ye Xuan's head, but for Ye Xuan, what he cared about was not these at all.

In mid-September, shortly after Ye Xuan participated in that show, the Pacers began to gather for training, and Ye Xuan also began his own rehabilitation training. At the beginning of October, the new season began, in the first two games of the preseason, although Ye Xuan's injury had almost recovered, but Coach Frank did not replace him, but let Ye Xuan sit on the court for 48 minutes.

However, there is still something missing from the Pacers' lineup, that is, the offensive firepower of the interior is really a bit weak, although the defensive ability of the two main interior players is very good, but once the team's shooting percentage starts to decline, then their game will become difficult. However, when Ye Xuan comes back, the situation should improve.

On October 9th, the Pacers ushered in their third preseason game, and in this game, Ye Xuan finally got the opportunity to play, and with four minutes left in the third quarter, Ye Xuan was substituted and replaced Rondo, who performed well. However, Ye Xuan's current combat effectiveness has not fully recovered to the level before the original injury, the main reason is that Ye Xuan's body has not been repaired, although he has been in a state of recuperation in the summer, but some of the dark injuries that have been caused by the hard work of last season have not been healed, and there is another reason, that is, because Ye Xuan himself is a little afraid now, he is afraid of physical contact, afraid of being injured again, others don't know his situation, he himself is until, The sequelae of his injury are very serious, if he can't save up enough 2,500 days to survive as soon as possible to completely eliminate the hidden dangers in his body, then the threat of Ye Xuan's injury again will be even greater.

In the third preseason, Ye Xuan got 9 minutes of playing time, and his performance was relatively average, only scoring 4 points and 2 assists, but fortunately, the team had established an advantage in the first two quarters of the game, so he still won the game.

In the fourth preseason game, in order to allow Ye Xuan to return to the game as soon as possible, Coach Frank directly arranged him into the starting list as the starting point guard. After playing the field, Ye Xuan felt even more awkward, originally last season, he had always controlled the ball by himself, but now he had to hand over the ball, and then run by himself, looking forward to the pass of his teammates, which made Ye Xuan very uncomfortable, and the result was naturally not good. Ye Xuan, who played a full 31 minutes, only scored 15 points and only had 6 assists, and the Pacers lost this preseason game because of this.

After two consecutive games of poor performance, those who liked Hei Ye Xuan immediately jumped out and began to sneer at Ye Xuan, although it was only two preseason games, Ye Xuan's poor performance seemed to be the reason for them to celebrate. The fifth preseason game came as scheduled, and the Pacers still arranged Ye Xuan to start as a scoring guard as the same as in the previous game.

Ye Xuan finally proved himself in this game, played 28 minutes, scored 29 points with a super high shooting rate, and of course 4 rebounds and 5 assists, Ye Xuan's all-round performance in this game not only proved his strength, allowing the Pacers to defeat their opponents on the road, but also relieved the Pacers fans, their regular season MVP is finally back.

The sixth preseason game is also the last preseason game of the season, Coach Frank is still this routine, Ye Xuan has gradually adapted to the rhythm of this game after the adjustment of the first two games, and he is now more proficient in running without the ball, Rondo's passing does have his merits, not only the timing of the pass is very good, but also the strength of the pass is also very good, sometimes Ye Xuan is even led by Rondo's pass to run.

The Pacers are still very strong in this game, after the three people on the outside gradually ran in, Coach Frank also began to practice rotation, in the first quarter of the game to lead the opponent by 12 points, Coach Frank in the second quarter of the game first used Rondo as the main force to lead the team to play for a while, and then let Ye Xuan take the bench to play for a while, the results are very similar, the two of them can sort out the team's offense in an orderly manner in their respective playing time, However, compared with Rondo's performance of 4 assists in just 3 minutes, Ye Xuan's side played more aggressively, and it was also more than three minutes, the Pacers got a total of 7 offensive opportunities, and 5 of them were finally completed by Ye Xuan, and Ye Xuan also scored 7 points on 3 of 5 shots, and his performance was very good.

The preseason ended smoothly, except for the fourth game where the Pacers lost the game because they wanted to make Ye Xuan adapt to the rhythm of the game, the other five preseason games were won, and judging from the team's performance, the Pacers' new lineup was not too much of a problem, and they ran in very quickly, which also made those who were waiting to see the Pacers' jokes have to endure.

In fact, it's not that Ye Xuan really adjusted his state one game at a time, but because Ye Xuan forcibly used the rewards from last season's finals and the end of the season to repair the dark injuries on his body, without the trouble of dark injuries and strain, Ye Xuan's competitive state naturally rebounded, but now Ye Xuan needs to be very cautious when playing, because he is now about to run out of food, except for giving himself the remaining 50 days of survival time, Ye Xuan has nothing else, Moreover, the previous rewards were only enough to repair the dark injuries of other 'parts', so Ye Xuan's biggest trouble, the cruciate ligament, still hadn't been solved, if Ye Xuan was injured again recently, then Ye Xuan would have to think about how to get through this difficulty.
