I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 139 The ill-fated walker

The Pacers finally ended their losing streak!

Coach Frank Vogel can also breathe a sigh of relief, he now looks at Xu Xuan with admiration.

The young man lived up to his expectations and withstood the tremendous pressure from Kobe in the fourth quarter, laying a solid foundation for their final victory.

"Hey, this deal is really good!"

In the first game of the new team, Xu Xuan was able to hand over 30 points, 4 assists, and 4 rebounds. In comparison, Solomon Hill, who was traded to the Knicks, had only 4 points, 3 assists, 7 rebounds.

The rebounds are not bad, but compared to Xu Xuan's data, it is still too far behind!
"It would be great if I could play this kind of data every game. Heh, what am I thinking? It's a daydream."

After the game, media reporters of course highly praised Kobe.

It is said that although they are the loser, the number of media reporters at the press conference after the Lakers game is still several times that of the Pacers.

"A group of CBA teammates dragged down the volute and scored more than half of the team's points. The game can still be lost. It seems that the Lakers are really hopeless."

"It is strongly recommended that Volute replace all the other people! What are they?"

"It's too much to replace all of them, but...hey, forget it, just change it, it's useless to keep the trash together, it doesn't matter."

It does not matter

Heartbreak!

After the game, Xu Xuan and Jeremy Lin greeted each other. Even though they had been in the Knicks before, they didn't seem to have much in common. After exchanging a few words, Xu Xuan went back to the locker room to take a shower.

In the evening, Coach Frank paid out of his own pocket and invited the team members out for a big meal. It seems that after the end of the 8-game losing streak, his heart began to clear up.

Not only that!

Even the rest of the Pacers looked at Xu Xuan differently now. In this game, Xu Xuan was completely overwhelmed by Kobe on the defensive end, but his sharp edges and corners were also seen on the offensive end!

This is a young man with a bright future!
Unexpectedly, Xu Xuan established his prestige in the first battle!

On the way back to the apartment, Xu Xuan opened his property panel.

Xu Xuan: Male
Age: 20
Rating: 500
Possess talent:

Stephen Curry's [-]s - Gold

Allen Iverson's Breakthrough - Gold

Russell Westbrook's Body - Gold

Jason Williams Pass - Gold

None of the four talents are meant to be advanced yet, but there is no rush. A lot of things have happened during this period, which has caused him to spend relatively less time on training. Next, he must concentrate on training and talent advancement. It's a matter, but besides this matter, there is one more thing that needs to be done.

Xu Xuan's eyes looked into the distance, and this moment was extremely profound.
The Pacers have really been a "star-crossed" team in recent years.

Back in the Reggie Miller era, this team would have been a strong team, but it never won a championship.They were reversed by the Bulls in the tiebreaker in the 1998 Eastern Conference Finals. They were blown up by O'Neal in the 2000 Finals. At the peak of 2004, they encountered a fight at the Palace of Auburn Hills. In the end, Reggie Miller retired without a championship in his life. .

However, this is not their most tragic thing-since 2000, the Pacers have had a total of 3 most improved players, and each of them is a good team building core. Like a "curse", all suffered injuries.

The first is Jermaine O'Neal, also known as "Little O'Neal".

In the 01-02 season, Jermaine O'Neal, who wore No. 7 for the Pacers, reached his peak in this year. He averaged only 12.9 points and 9.8 rebounds per game in the previous year. In this season, he averaged 19.0 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. With 2.3 blocks in rebounds, he was named the Most Improved Player.Jermaine O'Neal has become another future of the Pacers' rise, and he is indeed competitive enough. In the following years, he has made steady progress and once entered the scope of MVP discussion.

However, in the game against the Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals of the 2004 playoffs, O'Neal unfortunately suffered a knee injury. The injury not only prevented the Pacers with 61 wins and 21 losses that year from the finals, but also caused O'Neal to gradually fall. altar

After O'Neal, another core of the Pacers is Danny Granger.

Granger was originally just a rookie with the 17th overall pick. However, after joining the Pacers in 2005, Granger, who has been competitive, has made leaps and bounds for four consecutive years.

新秀赛季的他场均还仅仅只能拿到7.5分，到了第二个赛季时已经是13.9分，第三个赛季则是19.6分6.1篮板2.1助攻——他的崛起也是步行者选择放弃小奥尼尔的关键。

However, this is not the end of Granger. In the 2008-09 season, the first year after O'Neal was sent away, Granger averaged 25.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game with almost no change in playing time. , Not only was selected as an All-Star, but also the Most Improved Player of that year.

In the next few years, Granger led the Pacers to play brilliantly in the East. He was the team's absolute big brother on the court and in the locker room, but his peak was very short-lived.

In 2012, Granger also suffered a knee injury. Because of the injury, Granger was sidelined indefinitely in the 2012-13 season-only five games in the season.

After returning, Granger suffered another ankle injury, so his career almost fell off a cliff. Before 2012, he averaged 18.7 points per game. However, after 2012, he played only 75 points in three seasons. game, and never scored in double digits again.

Everyone knew about "Pickled Pepper" after that. During the preparations for the Men's Basketball World Cup this year, Pickled Pepper experienced the horrible "broken leg incident".

For Pickle, the luck of misfortune is that the injury was a hard fracture, not a ligament injury. Compared with a ligament injury, the impact on his career is relatively less serious, but the horror of the picture. Sigh!
Can't mention it again!

Such Pacers are both distressing and suspicious. Could it be that this team really can't do something "earth-shattering"?
Otherwise, why did you receive a fatal blow when you were about to rise?

Xu Xuan didn't believe it, and he was sure that the person he was going to meet soon wouldn't believe it either!

Paul George!

This is the person Xu Xuan most wants to see in the Pacers!
On the morning of December 12, someone saw Xu Xuan walking into the mansion of Paojiao in Polis, and it was said that Paojiao opened the door himself.

I don't know what the two of them talked about. The insider only saw that Xu Xuan came out of his mansion with a smile on his face almost an hour later, and it was delivered by Pickle himself.

This news has given many people different imaginations.
