NBA's No. 1 guard

Chapter 76 Chasing Points! (Ask for a push!)
From the second quarter of the game, the Eagles slowly found the outside touch. First, Paul Millsap hit a three-pointer from the top of the arc, and then Kyle Korver, a marksman, hit three consecutive three-pointers from the bottom corner. The Eagles began to exert their strength!

In just 5 minutes of the second quarter, the point difference suddenly pulled to double digits. This was because Xu Xiang played early and used unreasonable mid-range shots to catch up. Otherwise, the Pacers would have been beaten by this wave.

Even so, Old Frank also called a timeout, wanting to cool down the feeling of the opponent.

"The opponent feels so good in this quarter. If we want to win, we have to cling to the point difference. We can't continue to expand, or we won't be able to chase. Xu, I will give you unlimited shots. If they can score, we can too!" Old Frank's tone was very firm.He was full of confidence in Xu Xiang, because Xu Xiang's shooting was so stable that he didn't know what to say. Even if the Grizzlies defended him like that, it still wouldn't work!
Therefore, now whether it is the media or other teams, they all know the stability of Xu Xiang's scoring, as long as he takes a shot, he can score.

The game starts again.

This time the two sides are basically fighting with bayonets, you give me one and I will give you one, does it hurt you?It doesn't hurt!Then I don't hurt either!

No one would give in to anyone, but the point difference was still widening step by step. After all, the outdated method of two points was still no match for three points.If someone votes two, you have to vote three, which is difficult.

Xu Xiang is also very distressed. In fact, he prefers to play against a team like the Grizzlies. They are not good at three-pointers, but they are not as accurate as Xu Xiang at two-pointers. Defense?Whatever you want, it doesn't matter, this kind of individual is more comfortable to play, but the team is uncomfortable, they don't have a bug like Xu Xiang, they can only honestly be defended and cry.

But the Eagles are different from them. They also focus on shooting, and most of them are three-pointers.

This kind of team is the most restrained to Xu Xiang, because he can't catch up with others, and you can also shoot in others, so there is no way.

Xu Xiang also thought about this problem before, but his luck was really bad. He didn't get any defensive talent, and he didn't get any three-point talent, and the only mid-range shooting talent failed to integrate.

Xu Xiang knew in his heart that the Pacers would have a hard time playing against such a shooting-based team.

But the current form of the league is also developing in this direction. The "small ball style" led by "Ku Hao" is gradually eroding the original tactical system. In later generations, even the center will be able to pull out and shoot three-pointers.That's a guard thing!

Luck is really difficult to say when you have time. When things are bad, anything may happen. Let's see fate!
Xu Xiang thought so in his mind, but he didn't dare to stop. After turning around, he made another mid-range shot facing two people's defense, and went in again!

Xu Xiang was in a hurry, but there was nothing he could do. He played more and more smoothly, and the current point difference was already 12 points.

No matter how much he chases, he can't stop the opponent's crazy counterattack, and he doesn't care about you, just go for it, anyway, if you can hit me, so can I.

This is embarrassing, and now Xu Xiang realizes that his defense is very problematic, even Korver can't defend, let alone other people.

Old Frank frowned off the court. He estimated in his heart that this game would be over again. He couldn't beat him with his own strength. In addition, he felt so good and he played back-to-back away games. There must be a gap in strength.

"Xu, come down after playing for another 2 minutes." He said to Xu Xiang as soon as the third quarter was over.Now the score has reached 85-99, and no one on both sides can defend anyone, but the Pacers' firepower is still a bit weak. Only Xu Xianghao Hibbert has two stable scoring points. The others are currently scoring in single digits, including CJ Myers.

Xu Xiang is a little strange, this CJ should not only have such a little strength, why is he making so much money now, is it because of me?Xu Xiangxin was puzzled, but he didn't say it out loud. After all, this is not a pretty thing.

"Ah? Coach, I can still play." Xu Xiang said a little unwillingly. Once he was off, he basically announced that the game was abandoned, but this is not a preseason game, this is a regular season. The result of each game is directly related to whether he can enter the playoffs.

Xu Xiang doesn't want to give up. His goal this season is to enter the playoffs. He doesn't want the regular season to end hastily. His rookie season should be more than that!

"Coach, I'll play later. Anyway, I didn't have much time to play this game. It should be fine to finish the fourth quarter later." Xu Xiang thought carefully for a long time before saying.

"Xu, there's no need to fight so hard. Our schedule allows us to lose this game." Old Frank said with raised eyebrows.

Although he didn't want to give up, but the strength gap was here, and it was meaningless to go up and fight.

"No, coach, I think winning a game is a game. I think there is a chance. After all, their touch can't be so good all the time!" Xu Xiang said firmly.

He is also very helpless, other people's coaches are crazy to use the main force, but it is different here, the old Frank is especially good at judging the situation, if he thinks he can't win, basically he will not let the main force play.
"Are you sure?" said old Frank.

"Yeah, I think we can win!"

"Okay then, go and try, if it doesn't work, I'll replace you."

"OK!"

There is another reason why Xu Xiang is so confident, and that is that their main perimeter player, Jeff Teague, has committed 5 fouls.

George Hill looks like a low-profile Mike Conley. His shooting defense is a little bit worse, but he played well today. He successfully caused fouls on several occasions, which greatly reduced Jeff Teague's playing time. This is the biggest reason why the Pacers can still bite the score.

The fourth quarter begins.

With 14 points behind, Xu Xiang was in a hurry, hoping to recover the points immediately.The start was an open three-pointer, but fortunately he made it successfully, and the point difference was pulled back to 11 points. As long as it can reach below double digits, it will be easy to chase.

On the contrary, Korver missed a three-pointer after chasing the body, Xu Xiang was overjoyed, did he lose his touch?

A pure shooter like Korver is a bit afraid, that is, he has no touch, and he is not as good as a manipulator on the field if he can't shoot a goal. He has no defensive ability at all, and can only watch and have no sense of presence.
