NBA's No. 1 guard

Chapter 44 Xu Xiang Appears
Rubio was known as the "Golden Boy of Europe" back then, and he showed his talents at a very young age, but there is a saying that "he was born at an untimely time". Point guards in this era are not based on passing the ball.People like Curry, Westbrook, and Irving are all good offensive players. What they are best at is playing alone rather than connecting teams.In this era, there are only a few traditional point guards headed by Chris Paul, including George Hill and Ricky Rubio, who are facing each other today.

Turn around, the Pacers have the ball.

George Hill was still in control, and Rubio quickly posted that he might as well shoot, but only defend against passes. He also knew that George Hill was the same as him, with no shooting ability. If you want to shoot, just shoot.

Seeing that the situation was a bit stiff, Roy Hibbert came out inside and made a pick-and-roll for him. Then, it happened that David West got rid of Thaddeus Young who was marking him, and George Hill also accurately handed the ball to him. With a transparent shot, he scored 2 points for the Pacers again.David West's mid-range shot is very good, and the home fans of the Pacers cheered for a while. They were a bit depressed during this period. The team's head star basically bid farewell to this season.

Timberwolves head coach Rick Adelman watched the scene with a frown. He didn't care much about today's win or loss. It's obviously impossible to achieve any results with the team's lineup today, but it can't be said to just let it go.After thinking about it, he shouted directly at Rubio from the sidelines: "Tactics No. 2, Tactics No. 2."

Rubio on the field also heard this voice, and he made a No. 2 tactic gesture to his teammates who had already settled down.At this time, Brewer and Barea were all pulled beyond the three-point line, and Thaddeus Young was also actively mobilizing West's running position.After a cross screen, Brewer in the bottom corner was delayed because of Thaddeus Young's running position, which caused David West to fail to follow his footsteps. Brewer's front was instantly empty, and Rubio's ball was passed to him in time. Before he had time to think about it, he made an instant shot and scored a three-pointer, bringing the score back to 4-3.

The Pacers attack and George Hill faces Ricky Rubio.He directly took the ball to the frontcourt, and the ball was still playing inside. The Timberwolves had three guards this time, while the Pacers had three forwards. First of all, this height formed a great suppression, coupled with lack of experience, which caused Roy Hibbert to overwhelm their inside defense.

Roy Hibbert, who received the ball, went straight to the basket and made a domineering dunk, pulling the score to 6-3.Dion was stupid. He tried his best to defend, but he still couldn't block it. The difference in experience and strength was too great.

Soon, there were only 2 minutes and 30 seconds left in the first quarter. The main players of the Pacers suppressed them in the first 8 minutes. The score was 19-13, and the Timberwolves were 6 points behind.

Both sides replaced the bench lineup, the Forest team's No. [-] pick Wiggins played with rookie Zach LaVine, and the Pacers also replaced Xu Xiang and Donald Sloan.Frank was obviously satisfied with the performance of the main players in the first quarter. He said to them: "You guys performed well in this quarter. Take a good rest. Later, Sloan will play the point guard and Xu will play the shooting guard." Then he said to Xu Xiang who was changing his clothes: "Xu, your task this time is to shoot. Take shots when you have the opportunity. Don't be afraid of not making it. This is your first game. Perform well and go."

Xu Xiang nodded. To be honest, he was a little excited. This is the NBA stage.

Those fans who dared to watch Xu Xiang's game were very excited, and they were all shouting Xu Xiang's name.Now it is TNT's two head commentators Kenny Smith and Big Mouth Barkley who are explaining the game.Seeing the cheers after Xu Xiang's appearance, Buck used his funny voice to say: "Oh, see, this kid's voice is even higher than the number one pick." Smith next to him also took up the conversation: "Barkley, do you still remember what happened when you first appeared?"

"Of course I remember. The first time I played was much bigger than this scene. People were calling my name like "Barkley" and "Barkley" crazily.

Kenny Smith laughed loudly, "Barkley, I think you are wrong. Even if they fall in love with you, it's not because of your face, but your lips. Hahahahahahaha".

The audience at the scene was also full of laughter. Every time there was their commentary, it was very interesting, just like watching cross talk in China.

Barkley pretended to be very angry and said: "My God, if you are chatting like this, I will leave. I found that there is something wrong with the program crew. We obviously don't get along, so we must be arranged together."

Xu Xiang didn't have time to listen to their nonsense, because he was staring at Zach Laven in front of him intently.

Coincidentally, Xu Xiang also met him when he came to the United States for the first time to participate in the trial training. At that time, he was the most promising rookie in the audience and attracted the attention of the audience, but Xu Xiang was just an unknown Chinese kid.But now, Zach Laven turned his head and looked at the audience on the field. They were all chanting Xu Xiang's name, not to mention him, even Wiggins' voice was suppressed, let alone him?
Donald took possession of the ball, and inside center Ian Mahimi honestly came out and made a pick-and-roll. Zach Laven on the opposite side was firmly blocked and did not follow Donald's footsteps.Here, Xu Xiang faced Timberwolves backup shooting guard Ohus Jeffers. He was about 5 centimeters taller than Xu Xiang. Coupled with a pair of long arms, Xu Xiang couldn't get out of the shooting space for a while.

The attack time is coming soon, and Sloan is a little anxious. He has not found a space for his shot, and his teammates are all stared at him, so in desperation, he can only force his shot and pull a jumper. He misses and the ball goes out of the frame.

Pacers sideline coach Frank yelled at Xu Xiang: "Xu, pay attention to running, don't be too rigid." He also saw that Xu Xiang was restricted by Jeffers on the opposite side in this round.

Xu Xiang nodded. Although Xu Xiang's height was considered tall among point guards, it was nothing when it came to shooting guards.
