new lord of the rings

Chapter 394 Counterattack!

Amidst the rumors, Phoenix focused on training and playing, and the disturbances from the outside world seemed to be isolated. The atmosphere in the locker room was very harmonious. Earl Watson, a young coach, learned from Zhang Xin I have learned a lot. Zhang Xin is a leader who is very capable of leadership. If nothing else, the management and control of the locker room is not comparable to that of other team bosses.

Amidst so many gossips, the ability to make players ignore them and just train and improve themselves is nothing short of leadership ability. A person like Zhang Xin, even if his skills are mediocre, is of little use on the court. Big, there are a lot of teams willing to hand over the contract, because the problem in the locker room is not trivial. Sometimes a team with very good talent will eventually fall apart because of the discord in the locker room. This is not unheard of. Instead it happens too much!

For Zhang Xin, he never worries about rumors from the outside world, because he doesn’t need to worry about scandals. He doesn’t accept any other advertisements except for friendly advertisements for his father’s friends. Therefore, the problem of personal image is very important to him. There is no need to worry about it at all, he just wants to play well.

So he ignored the noise outside and focused on the training of the young players. As the schedule progressed, he became more and more satisfied. The young players improved rapidly, not only in offense, but also in Defense and offense need talent, relatively speaking, defense needs more attitude. Phoenix's defensive attitude is gradually established, and their defensive discipline is getting better and better. Finally, there is some weather. Of course, there is still a long way to go. , There is also a lot of time, Zhang Xin believes that before entering the playoffs, Phoenix will be a different scene!
When Zhang Xin led the young people to work hard on internal skills, Phoenix ushered in Indiana's guests, and the Pacers led by Paul George came to challenge the Phoenix Suns.

The Pacers this season can be considered strong, they traded away three Hill (Solomon Hill, George Hill, Jordan Hill and Ian Mahinmi), in exchange for Jeff Teague, Jeremy Evans , Thaddeus Young and powerful veteran El Jefferson, plus Paul George, Myers Turner, Monta Ellis and others, their strength has also increased a lot, but this year's record can only be regarded as mediocre. Now The record is 10 wins and 11 losses.

However, Zhang Xin knows that this year is also Paul George's last year in the Pacers. Although he doesn't know whether his arrival will affect Paul George's stay or not, logically speaking, he will definitely leave, because Paul George has already arrived. I am old, and the Pacers are such a sad child. Every time I meet James, I will be beaten violently. I will be beaten again this year. Paul George has had enough. If I leave, I can’t afford to hide. ?

game day.

Conspiracy theories, criticisms, and smears in various ways by the media have not affected the fans' support for the Phoenix Suns and Zhang Xin. Most of the fans are more practical. The arrival of Zhang Xin brought the Suns an 18-3 start. The record ranks first in the league. As long as Zhang Xin can lead the team to win, everything else is nothing. As for the people in the media, well-informed fans already know it. When you praise you, you are a piece of shit. It is fragrant, and when you are in the dark, you are a golden lump and can be called a sheep dung.

Therefore, the Holiday Inn Talking Stick arena is still crowded and tickets are hard to come by. When Zhang Xin entered the arena, all the fans stood up unanimously and gave Zhang Xin warm applause and cheers. Some fans held a sign saying Seeing Zhang Xin's words of support, Zhang Xin glanced over a lot, and was quite moved in his heart. He bowed to the fans to express his gratitude, and the fans burst into even bigger applause and cheers, and the whole venue was very enthusiastic.

The Pacers looked at each other, wondering what the Phoenix fans were up to, but it was rare for Phoenix to have such a warm home court. Race weather.

Game start.

The Indiana Pacers, who came from afar, sent the starting five tigers: Paul George, Monta Ellis, Myles Turner, Jeff Teague, Thaddeus Young.

The Phoenix Suns sent: Zhang Xin, Rajon Rondo, Devin Booker, Pau Gasol and Tyson Chandler.

Gasol and Turner jumped the ball in the middle circle. Although Paul Gasol was 2cm taller, Myles Turner was young after all, and took the lead to help the Pacers win a ball. Jeff Teague passed the ball steadily halftime.

Jeff Teague is similar to Mike Conley of the Grizzlies. They are both point guards with a relatively stable style of play. Their style of play is very low-key, and they are also low-key. Liss' state has declined seriously this season. Last season, he averaged 13.8 points, 4.7 assists, and 3.3 rebounds. This season, he has dropped to 8.5 points, 3.2 assists, and 2.8 rebounds. This may be because Jeff Teague's arrival has affected his tactical status. Most of it is the decline of his own state. Once the physical condition of the speed guard declines, the competitiveness on the field will drop significantly. Monta Ellis has also fallen into a situation where he has no ball to play after finishing this season. .

Monta Ellis didn't even think about passing the ball when he received the ball. He just rushed, but he faced the faster Rajon Rondo. The slap was cut, and Zhang Xin quickly picked up the ball and made a switch. Since the steal took place near the free throw line, Zhang Xin threw the ball forward as soon as he got the ball, passing Jeff Teague at the top of the arc. It was already flat, and Zhang Xin directly dunked successfully. There were enthusiastic cheers from the Talking Stick Holiday Hotel arena. The home team showed aggressiveness as soon as they came up, which means that today's game will be more devoted and more exciting. !
In the last defeat, Zhang Xin cannot afford to lose this game. At such a moment, victory is a strong counterattack to those who spread rumors, so Zhang Xin used a strong dunk to tell his teammates that today is going to be true. of!
The Pacers didn't feel anything yet, but the generals of the Suns were shocked. Zhang Xin rarely dunked, even in fast breaks. I didn't expect to open the game with dunks as soon as he came up today. It seems that the boss Although there was a smile on his face, the rumors outside still affected him a little after all, he still cared after all!

That being the case, then I will go all out today, the boss treats me as a national soldier, and I will repay him as a national soldier!
