NBA's No. 1 guard

Chapter 218 On the Contingency of Car Crashes

Whether it is the audience at the scene or the fans watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, they are now guessing what kind of starting lineup the Pacers will give after Paul George recovers from injury. Paul George has been on the bench recently, but will Coach Nate bring CJ Miles back?
After all, there is already Paul George on the bench. There are a minority of people who think this way. Most people are guessing that the Pacers' bench will not change. CJ Myers will mention the shooting guard to make room for Paul George. This is the most ideal result.

However, will it really be as they expected?

After everyone warmed up for a while, the starting lineups of both sides were shown on the big screen.

The audience at the scene felt that they had been greatly stimulated today, but when they saw the big screen, they lost their voices collectively.

It said impressively, Pacers: "George Hill, CJ Miles, Solomon Hill, West, Hibbert."

Xu Xiang as a substitute?
My God, this is really unexpected, everyone is in an uproar, Xu Xiang and Paul George are going to play as substitutes in this game?Coach Nate's brain hole is too big, right?

Coach Nate, who everyone on the sidelines believed to be the instigator, concealed a wry smile under his plain expression. Now it means that the two core members of the team have come together and said they want to play as a substitute. Can he disagree?And they also gave the reason: on the one hand, in order to paralyze the opponent, on the other hand, to celebrate the return of Paul George, and to break the news that the two of them are not in harmony, we are all on the bench together.

After careful consideration, Coach Nate agreed to their idea. Now that there are a lot of messy remarks because of Paul George's comeback, it is also a good thing that the two of them can be united now.

Besides, it's just this game, and it's the Heat (sorry, in Nate's subconscious, the Heat are indeed weaker now), so let them go.

This is not over yet, the Heat's starting lineup is also out: Mario Chalmers, Goran Dragic, James Ennis, Chris Anderson, and Hassan Whiteside.

Wade also played off the bench!
One shock after another.

Xu Xiang and Paul George exchanged glances with Wade and Luer Deng on the opposite side, and they all saw the incredible in each other's eyes. Immediately, Xu Xiang and Paul George next to him looked at each other. They didn't expect that the Heat also put Wade and Luer Deng on the bench.

It really "crashed".

But the lineup has been given, and it can't be changed now. The four players on both sides can only stare at each other and slowly sit back on the bench.

Xu Xiang smiled wryly and looked at Paul George next to him:
"I didn't expect to be caught by them."

It's so weird that something like this happens.

Paul George looked calm and not panicked at all. He glanced at Xu Xiang and said:

"What's the matter? That's not your style."

You must know that when Xu Xiang was alone at the time, he was crazy and scored 60 points on the Heat.

Xu Xiang glanced at him pretending to be dissatisfied:
"I'm worried about you, don't be blown away by Luer Deng on the opposite side."

Pickled Pepper is a good-natured person. After hearing Xu Xiang's words, he didn't get angry. Instead, he shook his head slightly, smiled and said nothing, and started watching the game.

On the court, Xu Xiangzheng looked at Dabaibian who was jumping the ball with Hibbert. Although this guy is not well known to people, he stood up when the "older generation" of the Heat couldn't play. Xu Xiang clearly remembered that in the 2016-2017 season, this guy averaged an incredible 14.1 rebounds per game.

The average rebounds per game is actually much higher than the average points per game of many people, God, come and take away this evildoer.

This is also a high-quality seed. Hibbert's upper limit is already doomed. Besides, the depth of the Pacers' bench is really bad enough. If he can be traded this year, oops, Xu Xiang smacked his lips, and he can wake up laughing from a dream.

After playing for a few minutes, Hibbert also noticed that something was wrong with the guy in front of him. Isn't this guy's judgment on the position of the team's rebounds too sharp?Look at the set of operations he used to grab rebounds just now, he doesn't look like a center at all, he is more flexible than a guard.

Just for a while, the opponent had already got 3 rebounds, two of which were offensive rebounds.

Xu Xiang was also watching this scene off the court. Hibbert was suppressed by Dabaibian at this moment, and looking at Dabaibian who was smiling silly and happy at this time, the "thirst" in Xu Xiang's heart became more and more intense.

With 5 minutes left in the first quarter, Coach Nate stood up and signaled that Xu Xiang and Paul George could play.

The entire audience was still lifeless just now, and now they will all be refreshed. In their eyes, what happened just now is better than "garbage time". This is the real start of the game.

Nate replaced Solomon Hill and CJ Miles with Xu Xiang and Paul George.

The Heat over there also replaced Wade and Ruhr Deng, Dragic and Ennis.

The real game starts now.

Xu Xiang dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. He had no cooperation with Paul George, but from his previous life watching the game and the analysis of various media news on him, Paul George is actually a person who doesn’t stick to the ball much.

Xu Xiang knew it well, and Paul George himself knew it too. At the same time, he also knew that he is not suitable for the kind of operation that forced breakthroughs and fouls, and he still needs to shoot more from the outside.

As soon as halftime arrived, Paojiao began to actively run. Luer Deng's speed was not slower than him, but he must always pay attention to the passing and cutting between Xu Xiang and him, and his attention should not be too concentrated.

Xu Xiang started to distribute the ball from the outside, first to George Hill, and George Hill did not stop and then gave it to West, who was running out. West made a gesture to attack inside, and Anderson didn't dare to let him go, so he quickly withdrew from the sideline position. He was also attracted by Paul George just now.

But West didn't vote, but gave it to Xu Xiang who cut in while everyone was not paying attention.

He's going for a layup.

This was the thought in the minds of all Heat players. The big white edge on the inside line had already pounced on him. He could guarantee that if Xu Xiang made this ball, he would definitely get a hat from himself.

but--

Xu Xiang didn't make a shot. After attracting attention, Xu Xiang directly passed the ball behind his back without looking at anyone. He still feinted this time, and the real attacker was——

Swish!
Three point hit!

It's Paul George.

He hit an open three-pointer from the outside corner and also hit his first goal of the season.
