I'm a boss in the NBA

Chapter 201 Is being short a talent?

In stark contrast to Xu Xuan being surrounded by crazy boos was the crazy applause and cheers brought by Thomas Jr. when he appeared on the stage.

Such applause and cheers surprised Thomas Jr. himself.

He knew Boston loved him, and he loved Boston.

He has played for the Sacramento Kings since he entered the NBA, but he doesn't love it, and even hates it.

Because at his peak, the Kings traded him to Phoenix.

Thomas Jr. was also not very happy in Phoenix.

Because he didn't feel that he was taken seriously, the high-level Sun team's eyes were always on the two nasty Dragic brothers. How could he be a short man?

Then, he was traded.

He was traded to the Boston Celtics.

Hoohoo!

Compared to the Kings and the Suns, the Celtics are definitely the richest of the richest!
And the key point is that this giant is now in a rebuilding period, and his arrival just made up for the lack of core players in the team.

Thus, he got the respect he wanted. Although someone whispered in his ear intentionally or unintentionally on the first day, "You are just Xu Xuan's substitute", Thomas Jr. didn't think it was anything bad thing.

Sometimes it's nice to be a substitute, isn't it?

But that's just a rookie?

Haha!

Am I actually a rookie replacement?

The greatest Isaiah Thomas is actually a rookie replacement?

Little Thomas thought it was funny.
I heard it's still a second-round pick?

Coincidentally, I am also a second-round pick!
But I, Isaiah, want to be the greatest second-round pick in NBA history!

Xu Xuan is just his stumbling block, and he will never become Xu Xuan's substitute!
Listening to the increasingly strong support from the scene, Thomas Jr. felt like his body was burning.

This time, I will prove who is the substitute!
Little Thomas' eyes are on fire!

I feel the courage given to me by the fans!
However, in such an important game, no one had the leisure to waste time. After the starters were selected, the game started immediately.

The starters for both sides.

For the Pacers, George Hill, Xu Xuan, Copeland, West, Hibbert.

For the Celtics, Thomas Jr., Bradley, Evan Turner, Brandon Bass, Taylor Zeller.

"The game has started! Roy, who is still stretching his hips while jumping the ball, still failed to create a miracle today! Zeller defeated him and won the first wave of offensive possession for the Celtics."

Hip Nima!
I am preserving my strength!
Hibbert stared angrily, as if he wanted to scare the other party to death.

If eyes could kill, Taylor Zeller's body is riddled with holes.

"Isaiah's offense was very aggressive!"

"Beautiful shot! Isaiah swings away from George Hill and makes a mid-range shot!"

Shake Nima away!
That's why he's short!

Can you not see him without seeing Lao Tzu?

George Hill was upset.

The guy in front of him is really short!
He was so short that he couldn't catch it at all, and was killed by the opponent in a blink of an eye.

"So being short is also a talent?"

It really is!

Part of the reason Thomas Jr. can cross the league is really due to his height.

For outside players, such a short player is really hard to defend, let alone inside players, as long as he raises his head, he can't see where the little Thomas is.
After being relaxed once, George Hill wrote the word "seriousness" on his face.

It's just that Thomas Jr., who completed this beautiful attack, didn't even look at Hill.

Little Thomas only has Xu Xuan in his eyes now!
Demonstration look!
Proud eyes!
Xu Xuan could see that Thomas was provoking him.

But there's no need to care, right?
Xu Xuan smiled lightly and took the ball across the half court
Damn, am I past the age of being competitive?

This feels really weird.
I really can't bring up any bad feelings towards little Thomas Xu Xuan, after all, this guy was really miserable in his previous life.
From a hot All-Star player to the point where he can play without the ball in later generations, this experience makes Xu Xuan full of sympathy for him.
"Xu Xuan's offense is still full of imagination!"

"Just when everyone thought he was going to pass the ball, he actually made a shot!"

"What a way to catch off guard!"

The green army sent to defend Xu Xuan was Avery Bradley, the strongest defender in their team.

But Bradley has nothing to do with the ball. He can only watch Xu Xuan take the ball back gracefully and throw it out again.
Fake!

It's wonderful. Ugh!

How could I praise my opponent?

damn it!
I'm crazy!

Xu Xuan's palm is not big, but he can do fake moves with one hand holding the ball. This is outrageous!
In a sense, the Celtics' offense and the Pacers' offense are the same, both playing positional warfare and defensive warfare.

And what's more similar is that now both sides have a strong point that can overwhelm the opponent one-on-one.

"Thomas is trying to find the pick-and-roll"

"Wow, is he trying to pull away Xu Xuan in this stance?"

After the pick-and-roll, it was time to switch defenses, and Thomas Jr. dribbled the ball directly in front of Xu Xuan.

"Hoho! The two met in the third attack at the beginning. It's really full of gunpowder!"

Seeing the scene where Thomas Jr. was about to play against Xu Xuan in singles, the fans on the sidelines started booing crazily.

Hearing the cheers from the sidelines, Thomas Jr. looked fiery.

This is what he wants!
He wants to defeat Xu Xuan in front of everyone and prove himself!
The more people there are, the happier he is, and the louder the cheers, the more excited he is!

"Isaiah dribbles beautifully!"

"Even in the NBA, there are very few guards who can dribble like Isaiado!"

Thomas Jr. rides the league not only by his height, but also his dribbling!

Everyone knows that the lower the center of gravity is pressed, the more lethal the breakthrough is, and his center of gravity does not need to be pressed, it is born!
unfortunately
Xu Xuan wouldn't move Thomas no matter how fiercely he operated.

"Paste it here!"

"Defense! Isn't the uncle's dribbling beautiful enough?"

"Or are you, Xu Xuan, blind?"

"If you don't come over, how can the uncle start the next brilliant offensive operation?!"

Little Thomas is very dark now.

Xu Xuan now has a look of disdain.

The more Xu Xuan disdained, the darker Thomas' face became.
"Damn it, is this the trash who treats me like Rajon Rondo?!"

Rondo: "Where is the trash!"

Let me say one more thing, I will tear your mouth apart!
Defense 175 naturally cannot be the same as Fang Longduo. If he puts 175 in the vacancy, he can definitely kill the Pacers. Xu Xuan is irritating him now!
