super point guard

Chapter 37 China Tournament Shanghai Station ([-])

When Xu Nuo replaced Darren Collison and took to the court, the fans in Shanghai Luwan Stadium kept shouting like a tsunami, which gradually turned into a uniform shout of "promise, promise" .The shouting intensified as Xu began to dribble forward.

"Promise to take the ball forward and give it to Danny Granger on the outside!" Zhang Weiping, who was the commentator at the scene, had to raise his voice and said loudly, "Danny Granger breaks through, passes again, the ball comes In the hands of Brandon Rush, then to promise! It's a good opportunity to take a shot!"

But Xu Nuo did not choose to shoot directly, but directly handed it to David West inside. David West leaned against DeAndre Jordan who was defending him, and just dribbled the ball. The Los Angeles Clippers Team guard Eric Gordon immediately stepped forward to double-team West.Faced with a double-team defense, David West almost made a mistake, he had some difficulty controlling the ball, and then threw it from the inside.When Xu Nuo received the ball near the top of the three-point arc, there was an open field in front of him. It seemed that the Los Angeles Clippers did not regard Xu as the focus of their defense, but Maurice Williams quickly jumped up and promised Unhurriedly passed the ball to Danny Granger who was in a good position outside the three-point line. Danny Granger received the ball and made a steady outside three-pointer. At 11:4, the Indiana Pacers opened up the point difference.

"Danny Granger's three-pointer came from the promised assist!" Zhang Weiping said loudly, and the enthusiasm of the fans was once again ignited.

Los Angeles Clippers coach Del Negro stood courtside, looking sternly at Promise sprinting across the court.Before the game, Coach Nigro didn't pay much attention to the promise of this year's second-round rookie, nor did he regard the promise as the key object of the team's defense. After all, there are players in the Indiana Pacers that need to be taken care of. Ranger and David West.But judging from the ball just now, this second-round rookie's ability to read the game and his sense of passing the ball cannot be underestimated.Coach Del Negro paced back and forth on the sidelines, thinking hard.

At this time, Maurice Williams dribbled the ball to the front court and slowly dribbled the ball facing Xu Nuo. "Boy, that was a good pass just now!" Maurice Williams said.

Xu Nuo frowned, thinking why he always said that. "It's just an ordinary ball, it's not a big deal." Xu Nuo said, thinking to himself: Don't you, Mo Williams, say you don't pass the ball? I'll let you take a good look at the consequences of not passing the ball tonight. !
Sure enough, Maurice Williams did not choose to pass the ball, but made a breakthrough directly in the face of the promise.Although Xu Nuo has been defending Maurice Williams' breakthrough, in fact he has been guarding against his pass.Sure enough, Maurice Williams saw that he couldn't get rid of the promised defense and had to choose to pass the ball.

"Promise, break him!" At this moment, guest commentator Zhang Weiping shouted out his classic commentary sentence again.

Even without Mr. Zhang Weiping's words of "stop him", Xu Nuo chose to steal it directly, because at the moment Maurice Williams passed the ball, the scene became "stagnant" again in Xu Nuo's eyes. Immediately afterwards, Xu promised to use the time of 45 seconds to react quickly and take a quick shot to cut off the pass from Maurice Williams, and then immediately launched a fast break.Danny Granger was the first to react and ran forward, and immediately set up a position at a [-]-degree angle outside the three-point line, and Xu Nuo also passed the ball to Danny Granger immediately. Granger's hand.But Danny Granger didn't catch the ball well, and after a pause, the rhythm of shooting was disrupted, and Danny Granger's shot missed.

"This shot is very reasonable, but it's a pity that Danny Granger didn't catch the ball well, otherwise he promised another assist." Teacher Zhang Weiping said, "Now the Pacers don't worry, defend well, after all The lead is on your side."

This time Maurice Williams chose to pass the ball directly when facing Xu, and he was also worried that he would be intercepted by Xu again.Blake Griffin held the ball on the left side of the basket against Roy Hibbert, who was defending him, and then suddenly turned around and rushed into the Indiana Pacers restricted area. David West immediately stepped up Make up defense.At this time, Blake Griffin had already jumped up under the basket. Facing the defense of David West and Roy Hibbert like a net, he actually jumped up with David West's body pivoted 360 degrees to the unguarded side.David West saw the bad situation and hurried to block Blake Griffin's shot, but Blake Griffin had already made a shot under the basket, and David West stepped forward to block the consequences It gave Blake Griffin another chance to add a penalty in vain.

"If you want to defend Blake Griffin, the best way is to push Griffin out of the penalty area, because Griffin is not a threat outside the penalty area." Xu Nuo heard the on-site commentator Zhang Weiping say this.

"It's easy to say." Xu Nuo said to himself.

Like "Shark" O'Neal and "Warcraft" Dwight Howard, Blake Griffin also belongs to the kind of inside players whose free throw percentage is particularly low or even worse than their shooting percentage.Blake Griffinja missed the free throw and Roy Hibbert grabbed the rebound.

"Now the Pacers don't need to rush to attack, play slowly and maintain their lead is the most important thing." Teacher Zhang Weiping continued, but Xu Nuo didn't care.Facing Maurice Williams, Xu Nuo began to try to break through his opponent.

"Others say that your biggest feature is not passing the ball, but I think your biggest feature is that you don't defend." Xu Nuo said to Maurice Williams, but Maurice Williams just smiled and did not speak. .Xu Nuo suddenly changed his right-handed ball control to his left-handed ball, and his right hand made a ball-protecting action, which made Maurice Williams mistakenly think that he would break through from his left hand.Xu promised to use this trick in the last game against the Orlando Magic, and this time he successfully fooled Maurice Williams.When Maurice Williams turned slightly to prevent Xu Nuo's breakthrough, Xu Nuo suddenly made a large frontal change in front of Maurice Williams, lowered his center of gravity and changed to the right hand side to break through.But Xu Nuo did not break through at full speed. After Morris Williams caught up, Xu Nuo made another sudden stop. At this time, Maurice Williams had no way to turn around to defend again. He almost knocked Maurice Williams to the ground.After the emergency stop, Xu Nuo dribbled the ball, and then shot directly. The ball "swiped" into the net hollowly, and the rhythm was very well grasped.

"Xu Nuo scored a shot, this is his first point in this game!" Zhang Weiping said loudly, the fans cheered again, and the beautiful cheerleaders stood up and waved to the fans in the stands arms.

Faced with the promise, Maurice Williams did not perform well. The 2 points and 1 assist he got were all obtained when he was facing Darren Collison. His performance has all become zero, that is to say, Maurice Williams has not scored, not assisted, not rebounded, not steal, and only fouled during this period of time.It was after this foul that Maurice Williams was replaced by Los Angeles Clippers head coach Del Negro.

"Be careful, man," Maurice Williams said to Eric Bledsoe, the backup point guard who replaced him. "That Chinese point guard is fast!" Lesso looked back at Maurice Williams who was walking towards the bench with a blank expression, as if he didn't understand what Williams said.

For promise, whether it is Maurice Williams or Eric Bledsoe, they are like puppets standing in front of him, and it is easy to get past them.However, Xu Nuo deliberately suppressed his personal desire to attack, and focused on passing the ball and organizing offense.The Indiana Pacers led the Los Angeles Clippers 8-4 when Promise entered the game, and when Promise was substituted with nearly two minutes left in the first quarter, the Indiana Pacers had 2: 23 led the opponent by six points. During this period of time, Xu Nuo scored 17 points and 2 assists, and his performance was not bad.After promising to go off, George Hill got the chance to play.

"Now you are the team's first substitute at the point guard position." said Danny Granger, who left the field at the same time as Xu Nuo.

"Oh, really?" Xu Nuo said.

"Didn't you notice?" Danny Granger said, "George Hill didn't get a chance to play for even one minute before that. He only got a chance to play after you left the field."

"It was arranged by Coach Larry Brown, can you blame me?" Promise said.

"That's not what I mean," Danny Granger said. "I just mean that your position in the team is becoming more and more important. Coach Larry Brown is paying more and more attention to you."

"I hope that's true and not just because it's coach Larry Brown in the preseason now that I'm playing so much," Promise said.

"I don't think so," said Danny Granger.

The last 2 minutes of the first quarter passed very quickly. Xu Nuo felt that he had only played two or three rounds back and forth on the court, and the first quarter was over. The "home team" Indiana Pacers led the "visitor team" Los Angeles Clippers 25:21 and entered the second quarter.
