Chapter 257 Winning streak!
Chapter 257 Ten Wins in a Row!
December 11, Bankers Life Arena.
The starting players of both sides are shown on the big screen, [Pacers]: George Hill, Xu Xiang, Paul George, Plumlee, Hibbert.
[Timberwolves]: Zach LaVine, Wiggins, Little Prince Tyshawn Prince, Garnett, Towns.
The double champion played with the wolf king.
Downs and Hibbert's jump ball, Hibbert finally relied on experience to help the Pacers get the first offense.
Looking at Towns who retreated back from the defense, his strength is not bad in conscience. His physical talent is very strong, his footwork around the basket is also good, his skills are exquisite, and he has the ability to shoot from the outside. Even in later generations, he is one of the best centers in the league.
The only thing that restricts him is his lack of overall view. If he has Jokic's overall view, it will be perfect.
George Hill held the ball and handed it to Xu Xiang after halftime. Xu Xiang beckoned. Plumlee on the inside came out and made a cover. Xu Xiang was defended by Wiggins. He was tall and talented, but his way of playing was not right.
Healthy basketball.
Wiggins and Xu Xiang are old rivals, rookies in the same class, Wiggins No. [-] pick, Xu Xiang second-round pick.
According to common sense, now should be the time when Wiggins is proud of the league, and Xu Xiang should be worrying about not having the ball to play, or being cut or something.
But now
Wiggins looked at Xu Xiang, and remembered the data given by the coach during the meeting yesterday, averaging 33.6 points per game.
He couldn't help cursing secretly in his heart, and lowered his head in low self-esteem:
"Is this meow still a human?"
Seeing that the opponent was stunned, Xu Xiang's eyes were fixed, and he started in an instant, and passed by with a big stride. Garnett and Downs on the inside of the Wolves didn't react. They didn't expect Xu Xiang to break through so easily, so they didn't give the help defense to the basket in time, and Xu Xiang easily scored a layup!
When retreating, Xu Xiang vaguely heard Downs complaining:
"You're a fart champion."
Xu Xiang frowned, playing ball is playing ball, swearing is not right, although he is not talking about Xu Xiang, but Xu Xiang is still quite angry, you are also the number one pick, isn't scolding him scolding yourself?
But after all, this is a matter within the team, so Xu Xiang didn't interrupt too much.
The Timberwolves attacked, and the rebound was taken by Hibbert. Xu Xiang didn't push the ball in a hurry, but slowly dribbled the ball across the half court. He winked at Hibbert on the inside. Hibbert immediately understood.
Hibbert singled Downs, turned around, bypassed Downs' defense, went straight to the basket and made a successful layup!
Hibbert played this ball very smartly.
Downs shook his arm depressedly, he didn't expect Hibbert to hit him like this.
"He has a grudge against you?"
Hibbert sneaked over and asked, Xu Xiang gave him a contemptuous look, and ignored him, the realm is really low, can you fight like that only if you have enmity with him?
Throughout the first quarter, Xu Xiang scored the first 2 points, and spent the rest of the time playing for Hibbert on the inside. Hibbert scored 12 points and 4 rebounds in a single quarter, slamming Towns on the opposite side.
"I found that Xu didn't seem to like the champion of any class." Hibbert said to West after he came down.
West: "???"
How do you know such a secret thing?
"Do you think he is sad because he is a second-round pick? Want to get revenge on them?"
Xu Xiang's head is full of black lines next to him, can you keep your voice down when you fucking whisper other people's whispers, this fucking rostrum can hear it.
The game was very intense. Xu Xiang took few shots in this game, but his efficiency was very high, and he sent 9 assists, setting a new season high for assists and the highest number of assists since entering the league.
114 to 104, the Pacers won by 10 points!
At the same time, it also achieved the team's "ten consecutive victories"!
徐向罚球4中2，拿到14分9助攻2篮板，光顾着助攻了，泡椒28分7篮板，希伯特24分9篮板，约基奇10分3篮板。
对面的维金斯本场比赛出战31分钟，拿到24分3助攻5篮板，唐斯14分6篮板。
In this game, whether it was Jokic or Hibbert, whoever played on the court would hang and hammer the opposite Towns, poor boy.
The Pacers have won ten games in a row!
The major media have put this news on the headlines one after another. No one expected that the team that struggled in the playoffs last season would start off with ten consecutive victories!
The fans of Indian City are overjoyed!
After the Pacers won, everyone's eyes returned to the Warriors. The Warriors are now winning ten consecutive victories.
The data of Xu Xiang and Curry were also put together for comparison for the first time.
Both sides played ten games, and Xu Xiang averaged 31.7 points, 4.6 assists and 1.3 rebounds per game.
Curry averaged 30.5 points, 6.7 assists and 5.4 rebounds per game.
Looking at it this way, Curry's data is still better, with two more assists and four more rebounds, but a little less points, but it is still over 30.
On the way back, Xu Xiang looked at the system in his mind.
Xu Xiang: Male.
Annual salary: 220 million.
Scoring ability: A+ (317/10000)
Breakthrough ability: B (218/500)
Passing ability: B- (164/200)
Defensive ability: C- (blocks 5/8, steals 7/12)
Free throw ability: B (84/500)
If he breaks through and advances to B, then the next promotion condition is to reach 500, which is still about 300 points away. However, with this promotion, his breakthrough ability has been greatly strengthened.
On November 11th, after a day off, the Warriors played against the Nets at home. As expected, they easily defeated their opponents 14-107. Curry said after the game:
"I know we've got a rival, which makes me more excited."
他本场比赛三分11投7中，拿到38分5助攻6篮板。
"I hope they keep winning, it's a different kind of game isn't it?"
It's afternoon for elementary school students!
After playing the Timberwolves, the Pacers have three days of rest, and the next game is on November 11.
Xu Xiang is very busy now, because a new endorsement has been found.
So far, Xu Xiang has only accepted one sneaker contract from Anta, and the others have been rejected. However, when Xu Xiang led the Pacers to a ten-game winning streak and he won five consecutive 40+ games, these manufacturers all found them again.
"Coca-Cola and Pepsi and Volvo are the highest bidders right now."
"Um, Volvo?"
"Yes, they found me. The specific contract amount has not been discussed yet, but it will definitely not be less."
"Is it a car or what?"
"It should be a car."
