explosive dribbler

Chapter 66 The first defeat of the season
This allowed the cousin to play for more than ten seconds, and then kicked him off...

Vogel realized that the more he looked at An Xiaonan, the more he felt that he was a monster, and he made his cousin furious in a short time, and drove him off the stage with cleverness...

Ever since, in the next period of time, An Xiaonan led the team to catch up. At the end of the second quarter, the score of the two sides was 54:53, and the Magic even led by one point.

Facing the Pelicans without a cousin, it will be much easier.

But before An Xiaonan could be happy, they faced a problem.

That is the foul problem inside.

After the start of the third quarter, Gordon was quickly at a disadvantage in the matchup with Davis and received his fourth personal foul.

Gordon made four fouls, Vucevic made three fouls, and the two major insiders were plagued by foul problems on the bench.And the substitute's inside line simply couldn't stop Davis' indiscriminate bombing.

This is not terrible, double-teaming can be solved.The scary thing is that the Pelicans' outside touch has warmed up. All of a sudden, double-teaming will split the ball, and the ball will be shot directly.

Both Moore and Holiday made three-pointers.What's more terrible is that Rondo also invested in...

An Xiaonan also felt powerless about this, and within a few minutes of the third quarter, the point difference was widened to more than ten points.

So An Xiaonan started his own singles mode.Moore's defense looked fragile in front of him, and he was often played by An Xiaonan to the point where he couldn't find his way.

But after two rounds, Gentry waved his sleeves and asked Rondo to defend An Xiaonan directly.

Rondo deserves to be Rondo, experienced and vicious.

If An Xiaonan showed a slight flaw, he would either be prevented from breaking through and cause a sticky ball, or he would be cut off directly.

Even if he was fouled by the thugs, successive breakthrough failures would be a huge blow to An Xiaonan.

Vogel frowned, not expecting the game to be so difficult even when his cousin was sent off.

Here comes the more important issue, the Magic's physical fitness.It was another back-to-back away game, and by the last quarter, their physical strength was running low.

Especially An Xiaonan, An Xiaonan has been restrained by Rondo all the time, and he feels extremely upset, but he can't come up with any solution for a while.

Under multiple factors, An Xiaonan's physical energy was consumed as quickly as running water.

Since Rondo can't be defeated head-on, then go from the side.

An Xiaonan thought of this in his heart, so he called the pick-and-roll.

Using the pick-and-roll, he can indeed get rid of the cheerful defense.However, the person he faced became Davis, the thick-browed brother with long arms and legs.

There was not much physical strength left, and the speed of the forced breakthrough also slowed down.An Xiaonan passed the pick-and-roll twice in a row and tried to make a layup, but in the end he was slapped away by Brother Nongmei with one hand covering the sky...

"Damn it..." An Xiaonan's eyes blurred for a while, sweat dripped into his eyes, and he could barely see the big red numbers on the scoreboard.

79:94, 15 points behind, the game still has the last three minutes and 48 seconds.

"Beep——" Davis forced Vucevic inside, causing Vucevic to foul.

An Xiaonan's pupils shrank suddenly, and the referee's sharp whistle sounded.

the second……

Gordon has already left the game with six fouls...

This time it's Vucevic...

Vucevic was immediately dissatisfied with the referee's penalty, and ran to the referee to complain. He thought that the little physical contact just now was not a foul at all.

"Nicola!" An Xiaonan immediately sensed the seriousness of the situation, and immediately ran to Vucevic and shouted.

Faced with Vucevic's chatter, the referee didn't have much patience, and directly whistled a technical foul and signaled Vucevic to leave the field for six fouls.

An Xiaonan took a deep breath and shook his head.

The two major insiders left the field with six fouls and a technical foul. This game can no longer be played.

After Davis made two free throws, he also made a technical free throw.

The [-]-point difference suddenly turned into [-] points, and the game had lost its suspense.

For the first time, the Magic felt the fear of being dominated inside.An Xiaonan also thoroughly felt the existence of a superstar-level insider.

Davis' value to the Pelicans is by no means less than James' value to the Cavaliers.What's more, he is still younger, only 25 years old.

Vogel gave up the game and An Xiaonan was replaced.

An Xiaonan's mood was very low. It was the first time he tasted defeat, and it was the first time he felt his own lack of strength.

Lei Meng patted An Xiaonan's head: "Rookie, why are you frustrated? It's just a regular season. Besides, you are the last rookie to taste defeat. You are proud enough."

"Beep—" the whistle sounded at the end of the game. In the end, the Magic lost to the New Orleans Pelicans with a score of 85:97, their first defeat after six consecutive victories in the new season.

An Xiaonan played 27 minutes in the game and made 15 of 5 shots. His shooting percentage hit a new low since six games.Tonight he was truly restrained.

He only scored 12 points, 5 assists, 2 rebounds, and 5 turnovers. This was his worst game since he came to the Magic.

On the Pelicans side, Cousins ​​scored 8 points and 15 rebounds after only playing 6 minutes before being sent off.

更变态的是后来的戴维斯。浓眉哥全场比赛打了35分钟，25投15中，其中三分球6投3中，罚球12罚9中，爆砍42分16个篮板4个助攻5个盖帽的数据，毫无悬念地成为了今晚的mvp球员。

魔术尝到了赛季首败，他们在10月份的比赛也打完了。6胜1负，依旧是东部第一，东部第二的凯尔特人以5胜2负的成绩紧随其后。当然魔术并不知道接下来伟大的绿军会以一波16连胜抢走联盟头名的宝座……

Magic's next game is still away, on the night of November 11 against Memphis against the Grizzlies.

In the hotel...

In the dark room, the screen of the mobile phone is shining, and the light shines on a face, which looks a little weird and terrifying.

"Damn...how can this place handle the ball like that..."

An Xiaonan shook his hand viciously, and now he is playing the video of the third match.

He swore he would have to utter a bad breath the next time he faced Rondo.

……

The next day, October 31st.

At the end of October, Magic and his party boarded the plane again.The third straight away destination is Memphis.

An Xiaonan looked very listless, his eyelids were as heavy as iron, and he couldn't open his eyes at all.

Who told him to watch the game video all night...
