Chapter 255 The Celtics.
On November 11, after a day off, the Pacers headed to Boston to challenge the Celtics away.
The last game was fought in Polis, and this one is in Boston.
The away game is definitely not as good as the home game, and the game officially starts at 7:[-] in the evening.
Before the game, Xu Xiang got the news that the game "Blood Cloth" Bradley took turns due to injury, and Turner replaced him.
Turner is a typical player who drives high and walks low.
When he first entered the NBA, his record was very dazzling. During the period of the 76ers, he averaged 17.4 points, 3.7 assists and 6.0 rebounds per game. Generally speaking, if he follows this trend, he will definitely become a superstar in the future.
But with the passage of time, Turner's strength did not rise but declined. The 13-14 season was the lowest point of his career when he was with the Pacers. A total of 27 games, 2 starts, and an average of only 7.1 points per game, the lowest in his career.
He was traded to the Celtics last season, and his state has recovered. He participated in all 82 games and started 57 games. He averaged 9.5 points, 5.5 assists and 5.1 rebounds per game, shooting 42.9% from the field and 27.7 from the three-point range.
The scoring average is not high, but the number of assists is high, and his passing awareness is good.
The two teams are old rivals. Not long after the start of the season, this is already their second game.
Hibbert won the jump ball and the Pacers got the offense.
George Hill took a look with the ball, hey, where is the defender in front of me?
I saw little Thomas looking at George Hill who was dribbling back and forth boredly, hey, brother, you are shooting, I don’t guard against you, what are you doing.
Thomas Jr.'s defense is the same as Xu Xiang's before, maybe not as good, and he is not to blame. After all, with a height of 175, it is really difficult to defend George Hill, who is 191 in height.
George Hill is also very face-saving, if you ask me to vote, I will vote!
Holding high and hitting, little Thomas couldn't reach it at all, only heard a swish, and hit it successfully!
This is quite strange. George Hill generally does not shoot outside three-pointers. His three-point shooting percentage last season was only 29.4%.
Xu Xiang looked at Thomas Jr.'s face, and saw that he was dribbling the ball calmly. He has played in the league for so many years, and he has seen this kind of situation a lot.
Don't be proud, anyway, you're not the only one I can't guard against, I can't guard anyone else...
Thomas Jr. dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and made a direct breakthrough from outside the three-point line. He is small and has a low center of gravity when dribbling, so if he wants to break his ball, at least George Hill can't do it, and he can't reach it.
The little assassin went to the basket, missed a backhand layup, and the rebound was taken by Hibbert. The Pacers quickly counterattacked. Xu Xiang took the ball to the frontcourt and directly gave it to Pickle who rushed inside. He dunked successfully and beat the opponent 5-0 in the opening game.
The young coach on the sidelines remained calm. The Pacers hadn't lost a game since the beginning of the season, and Xu Xiang's momentum was too strong recently, and he couldn't hold it back at all. It was nothing surprising to be beaten 5-0 by the opponent in the opening game.
The Celtics' offense is still mainly based on screens. All the insiders are pulled out, layer after layer of screens creates opportunities for Thomas Jr., and the inside is emptied for safety.
At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers led by 5 points and entered the second quarter.
The Celtics can be considered to have stabilized the situation. After the Pacers started 5-0, they went 8-0 again, and they were chased back by the opposite side just like that.
The little assassin's offense is still no problem. Crowder from the outside line also feels good today. He made three three-pointers and helped the team save the situation.
In the second quarter, the Celtics played steadily and never gave the Pacers a chance to widen the point difference, but what is terrible about the Pacers is not the second quarter, but the third quarter.
Marshal Stevens has studied many videos of the Pacers this season. Their best offensive method is that Xu Xiang and Pickled Pepper come up together in the third quarter, directly defeating the opponent. If this and the power point can be strangled to death, the result may be different.
Sure enough, as soon as the third quarter came up, Xu Xiang broke out again, scoring 12 points with a sudden shot, and played a wave of 12 to 3, directly pulling the point difference to 10 points!
Stevens shook his head depressingly. Everything was so beautiful, but he couldn’t resist the magic trick. Go for the flank, and the other people on the opposite side will be empty. If you don’t flank, just watch Xu Xiang throw like this, and look at his terrifying touch. There is no chance at all.
最后，步行者队还是依靠着这第三节的优势拿下了这场比赛，徐向全场出战34分钟，罚球10中6，拿到35分6助攻2篮板，泡椒28分4助攻6篮板，小托马斯28分6助攻，克劳德20分4助攻7篮板。
All the media at home and abroad breathed a sigh of relief. 40+ finally stopped. Although 35 points is not far from 40+, as long as it doesn’t hurt 40, it doesn’t count, and there is no such attractive gimmick.
But although Xu Xiang's five consecutive 40+ games have stopped, people have discovered a more terrifying thing. Since the start of the season, the Pacers have not lost a game so far!
Counting the game against the Celtics, there are a total of nine games, all won!
Nine in a row!
I was screened by Xu Xiang's terrifying 40+ in a row before, and I didn't have time to pay attention to the record of the Pacers. Let's take a look again this time!
Take a breath in an instant!
Nine consecutive victories start!
The Pacers are going to heaven!
The best of the week in the first Eastern Conference in November was not surprisingly given to Xu Xiang, and Curry of the Warriors in the Western Conference.
Xu Xiang averaged 4 points in 41.5 games last week!
Everyone gasped when they saw this data, averaging 41.5 points per game!
God, come and take away this evildoer!
However, Curry is not to be outdone. Since the start of the game, the Warriors have not lost a game. The record is the same as that of the Pacers.
Now everyone in the outside world is guessing which of the two teams can keep going, and which one will fall first.
The most tragic thing is the Minnesota Timberwolves. After losing to the Warriors on the 12th, they will face the Pacers on the 13th. It is equivalent to beating the number one in the league back to back in two days. It is said that some Timberwolves fans have cursed Adam Silver in circles. What is this row?Even if you want to punish my Wolves, you can't be so blatant, can you?
Adam Silver is also wronged, who the hell knows that the Pacers can play so well this season?I knew I would have given a few more live broadcasts across the United States. Thinking about those traffic, it hurts!
