I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 149 The first week is the best! (4K chapters ask for subscription!)

The Pacers have won 4 consecutive victories, and of course they returned in triumph this time.

There were smiles on everyone's faces, including head coach Frank Vogel.

He was chatting with the chief assistant next to him, Nate McMillan.

From 8 consecutive losses to 4 consecutive victories, fate seems to have played a joke on them.

Now the Pacers' record has become 11 wins and 17 losses.

In the East, this record is expected to hit the playoffs.

The Christmas game is coming soon, and the Pacers have one home game left on Christmas.

The opponent is the New Orleans Pelicans, an upstart in the Western Conference this year.

What Vogel is discussing with McMillan is the current situation of this team.

"What? The best of the week?"

As soon as the plane landed, before Xu Xuan got home, he received a piece of good news!

The best of the week in the East this week (December 12-December 15) was actually given to him!
This is the first time in his life that he won the honor of Best of the Week!
And don't underestimate the best of the week, because in the ups and downs of the state, even people like James cannot guarantee that they are qualified to compete every time!
"what?"

"Are you sure you read it right?"

"Look at your sister, it's officially announced by the Alliance, how could I get it wrong?"

"Fake, he can win the best of the week, why doesn't the sow climb the tree?"

Smart's agent glanced at him speechlessly, he won the best of the week this time with hard power!
First of all, the Pacers won all four games!
A very important point to measure the best player of the week is to look at the team's record during this period.

The second is the data of the core players.

Xu Xuan scored more than 30 in a single game in the past four games, and one of them even exceeded 40!

Playing 34.5 minutes per game, he can get 28.2 points, 3.2 assists, and 2.7 rebounds!
The shooting rate is as high as 52%, and the three-point shooting rate is as high as 47%!

With this data, Xu Xuan just defeated Al Horford of the Eagles to get the best honor of the week!

Horford has won all three games in the past three games, averaging 18.3 points, 5.0 assists, and 6.7 rebounds per game, which is slightly inferior to Xu Xuan.

"What do you say?"

"28.2 points per game?"

"This is Nima, what kind of god came down to earth, no wonder the Pacers can win 4 consecutive victories"

To a new team, Xu Xuan not only did not have stage fright, but ushered in a big explosion!

When he was in the Knicks before, Xu Xuan averaged only 14 points, 5 assists and 2.1 rebounds per game.

The score has increased a lot, and the assists have decreased a little due to changing to the second position, but overall, this statistic is undoubtedly enough to blind everyone's eyes!

Especially the Zen Master!
The Knicks have been getting more and more difficult recently, and Dolan even made some decadent insinuations about whether the team's tactics should be changed.
Change?
where to change?

The Zen master knows what Dolan means, is it bad?

snort!
As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, I won't blow it up!
Zen Master thought proudly.

Xu Xuan was a little dazed by this sudden surprise.

He hadn't really thought about the best thing to happen this week.

"This should be the first honor I got in the NBA, right?"

Xu Xuan rubbed his head, Zhou Best's weight is not light, if he can win a few times in a season, it will be a worthwhile trip.

On the east side is Xu Xuan, and on the west side is Adelaide for the Trail Blazers. He won all 4 games and averaged 26.3 points, 1.3 assists, and 14.3 rebounds per game.
Vigorous not!
In addition to the best of the week, the league also announced the latest team strength list.

The top five are the Warriors, Cavaliers, Spurs, Eagles, and Clippers.

The Eagles are among the top five, and the Bulls are sixth.

The status of the Warriors is unshakable. So far, the record of 22 wins and 3 losses ranks first in the league!

The Cavaliers are purely based on the face of the old Zhan and the lineup. The record is only 16 wins and 10 losses, which is far worse than the Warriors.

The Pacers are outside the top ten. In fact, even if they have won a wave of 4 consecutive victories, those experts don't think that the Pacers still have hope of reaching the playoffs this season.

"By the way, how many votes do I have for the All-Stars?"

Xu Xuan suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked Carson next to him.

It was only a few days before the end of the first round of voting for the All-Stars. Xu Xuan hadn't paid attention to this matter, so it was rare to have free time today.

"." Carson's expression was a little strange, as if he didn't know what to say.

"Why are you hesitating? Just say something"

"More than 100 million."

"What?"

"More than 100!"

More than 100 million?

Xu Xuan glanced at him in surprise, he now has more than 100 million votes?
This is the first round, isn't it over?

what's going on?
"Carson, did you spend the money?"

Xu Xuan looked at him in surprise.

This number of votes can catch up with the total number of votes in the final three rounds, right?
"I didn't do anything, I can only say that your fans are so awesome!"

Carson told Xu Xuan that on the second day of the All-Star voting, Xu Xuan's total votes exceeded 20!

In the future, it will be out of control, even if it can't be stopped.
"So, I can still enter the All-Star Game this year?"

Xu Xuan said with a strange face.

What's wrong with this, it's all unexpected, and it's all good!

No one will turn down an All-Star!

"If you don't get injured, the All-Star should not run"

"Not only that!"

Carson nodded, and then continued: "Currently, LeBron has just over 50 votes, and Curry in the Western Golden State doesn't have as many votes as LeBron."

"That is to say."

"That's right!"

"You may still be the top voter in this All-Star game!!"

Ok?
Vote king?

It's really a surprise and a wave, and the good things are endless!
On the 23rd, the Pacers played against the New Orleans Pelicans at home.

Anthony Davis, the head star of the Pelicans "Big Eyebrows", now looks at Xu Xuan with jealousy.

He is the No. [-] pick, he is an upstart in the league, and he is the future successor of the league, but his All-Star votes are not even half of Xu Xuan's
"unfair!"

The league shouldn't be voting like this!
There are too many of them, too many to count.

And they are very united, they all support Xu Xuan and vote for Xu Xuan, how can other people compete?

Can't compete!

What else can you do?

I can only blame myself for my bad background!
"Davis, Xu Xuan is the strongest rookie of the year"

"I know, so what?"

"He is better than the champion Andrew, and you are also the champion."

"Heh! The champion is also different! What kind of champion is that trash Andrew? I am the real champion!"

Nong Mei decided to teach Xu Xuan a lesson!
A lesson of a lifetime!

In front of the future successors of the alliance, if it's a dragon, you have to coil up, and if it's a tiger, you have to lie down!

So what if the All-Star votes are high?
I have lower votes than you, so I will blow you up!

"The game has begun"

"Let's take a look at the starters on both sides. For the Pacers, Hill and Xu Xuan are on the perimeter, Copeland and West are on the front line, and Hibbert seems to be recovering from illness and will serve as the starting center."

"For the Pelicans, Jrue Holiday and Tyreke Evans on the perimeter, Luke Babbitt and Anthony Davis on the front line, Omer Asik at center"

Tyreke Evans?

The Man of the Year in 09!

This guy is so awesome, he just won the best rookie of the year under the gaze of Curry, Harden and other werewolves!

Not only that, but he averaged 20.1 points, fifth in rebounds (5.3), second in assists (5.8) and second in steals (1.51).

In addition, Evans is also the fourth player in history to average 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists in his rookie season!
Therefore, he is rated as a genius who only emerges once in ten years in the NBA. His physical talent is overwhelming, and he can even play all the way from point guard to small forward.

The 09 class was a big year for point guards. After the preseason, the league at that time selected a top ten point guards. There is no doubt that Evans is the first!

No.2 is James Harden, and this is well deserved. Harden performed extremely well in the summer league and preseason, but his luck was not very good. The positions in the team were filled and he couldn't start.

Curry is third, averaging 19.6 points per game in the preseason.

No.4 is Jennings, No.5 is Jonny Flynn, No.6 is Rubio... a rookie who may have to play in Europe for two or three years after his contract expires after being selected, is still ranked sixth.

Mainly because he is too famous.

But such a character never expected to be a rookie or a peak player.

The first season was 20+5+5, and in the next few seasons, the data in each season declined
Last year, the New Orleans Pelicans reached a three-way trade agreement with the Kings and Trail Blazers. The Pelicans sent Greivis Vasquez and Robin Lopez to get Tyreke Evan in a sign-and-trade s.

He immediately signed a 4-year contract with a total amount of 4398 million US dollars.

Even if the rookie is the peak, the Pelicans management also believes that Tyreke is worth the price of a high-quality role player.

Xu Xuan looked at the opponent in front of him, and Evans also looked at him.

Xu Xuan's past data and performance came to mind, and Evans suddenly felt that Xu Xuan was a bit like himself.

The rookie season has been so good, so compelling.

Compared with the situation he stirred up in his rookie season, Xu Xuan is not much less.

But. Will you be the second me?

Or don't.
You should go your own way, walk out of a different way, let me see, let me learn, what went wrong at the beginning, what went wrong.
At the end of the jump ball, Hibbert, who returned from illness, failed to jump over "butter hand" Asik, and the Pelicans got the right to attack the first attack.

Jrue Holiday carries the ball across half court.

Brother Nongmei stepped forward to cover, and after the cover, he went straight into the Pacers' heart!

Holiday didn't get the ball!

Nongmei jumped up in the air, held down the basketball and directly dunked with one hand!

"Hoho!"

The first attack was so bloody!

The thick eyebrows were not flexible enough, when West wanted to turn around to stop it, it was already too late, he had already risen into the air, and at that height, even West could not reach it!

Hibbert sent the bottom line ball, and Hill pushed forward from the left.

Evans focused his energy on defense, he is rarely so serious, today is an exception!

"The Pacers' first attack is handed over to Xu Xuan"

"This young man doesn't seem to have let them down"

"Whenever the team couldn't find the finish line, the ball would go to him"

The ball went around in the hands of Hibbert, West and others on the inside, and it was still given to Xu Xuan.

Asik's defense on the inside of the Pelicans is pretty good. Hibbert didn't find any opportunities after hitting twice.

Xu Xuan protected the ball from outside, his eyes fixed on Evans in front of him.

"How to play? Is it a shot or a breakthrough?"

Evans had an idea in his heart, but he didn't dare to act rashly.

The rest of the Pacers pulled away, and the one-on-one singles on the left!

"Breakthrough?"

Xu Xuan chose to break through!

When Xu Xuan's shoulders sank, Evans moved immediately.
blocked!
Evans predicted the timing of Xu Xuan's breakthrough!

But Xu Xuan didn't panic, he took a step back from the three-point line, and at the same time made a gesture to shoot.

"This is your real purpose!"

Evans pounced!
He kept one hand all the time!
He has seen Xu Xuan's false breakthrough and three-point retreat in the video!

Once you've seen it, don't try to hide it from me again!

Boom!

"Evans interfered with Xu Xuan's shooting! The step back is invalid!"

"Whose rebound is it?"

"Roy got the rebound and passed it to the outside line again, Xu Xuan took the second shot!"

Swish!
Got it!

Xu Xuan scored a three-pointer for the second time!
2 is better than 3!

"not simple!"

"After being disturbed by a ball, he can still stabilize his mentality and continue to throw the ball in"

"Confidence has been cast!"

confidence!

It is a very rare thing!

Like Kobe, he is an extremely confident person!
Even if he hit the iron 100 times, he dared to continue to throw the 101st ball. Of course Xu Xuan did not have his mentality, but after coming to the Pacers, Xu Xuan's self-confidence has grown a lot.

Offensive and defensive conversion.

After Zhu Holiday pushed halfway, he saw Evans leaning on Xu Xuan asking for the ball.

Evans is the second offensive point in the Pelicans, second only to thick eyebrows.

Holiday thought and passed the ball.

Xu Xuan defended.

Do you want to hit a return ball?

Xu Xuan couldn't figure out what he meant.

Breakthrough!
Evans also chose to break through first!
Xu Xuan hurriedly followed. His defense was poor, but he was quite motivated.

"Ok?"

"Evans also chose to retreat? I thought he would keep rushing in!"

Not only that!

While retreating, Evans also made a pick-and-roll move.

The thick eyebrows were pulled out immediately, blocking Xu Xuan's right side.

Evans accelerated from the same route towards the three-point line again!
It is true that West has followed, and his defensive awareness is also good, but his speed is too slow!

Xu Xuan was blocked, Evans had no worries, and accelerated with all his strength. Before West switched over, he rushed to the three-point line first, changed direction, passed West and went straight to the basket!

"Shh!"

Evans grabbed the ball and threw it to the basket. Hibbert couldn't react and watched the ball fall into the frame.

The two inside players move too slowly!
But if you can solve the problem with a hard attack, you still need to call it a pick-and-roll?
What do you mean?
Bullying, right?
Seeing the smile on Nongmei's face, Xu Xuan was furious!
Damn, they bully!
Nong Mei is of course very happy to be able to add trouble to Xu Xuan.
