Chapter 225
Okur's expression was a little ashamed and angry. After all, it's not a good thing for any player to be treated as a background wall, let alone being dunked by an opponent.Xu Hao ignored his reaction. He just put his hands to his ears and made Iverson's classic celebration gesture. The meaning was very simple and clear: he wanted the home fans to cheer louder, otherwise he wouldn't be able to hear it. arrive!
The faces of the other Jazz players were very serious. Xu Hao had mobilized the atmosphere of the Target Center. For the visiting team, fighting in such an environment was undoubtedly a torment, and the noise of the fans might affect them status.

Of course, Xu Hao will not be affected. After greeting the Jazz players with a dunk, he did not remain silent, but continued to fire with full firepower, completely taking over the team's offense.The teammates also saw that he felt hot in this game, and more or less wanted to slap the media that bad-mouthed him, and they were all happy to help this rookie.

In the previous games, it is not that Xu Hao has scored 70 or [-] points in a single game, but the deepest impression he has left on experts and fans is his ability to connect teams. Currently, he ranks high in the league in assists per game fourth place.This kind of performance makes people forget that he is also a super scorer who scored [-]+ in a single game in college, and he will wake up everyone's memory in this game against the Jazz.He wants to tell everyone that he is not only a qualified commander, but also an expert at attacking cities.

Xu Hao made up his mind to attack by himself, and Deron became the most embarrassing player on the court.In fact, his defense can only be regarded as average. To a large extent, Sloan's defensive system saved him. In the previous four seasons, his points per 110 possessions have never been lower than [-] points. It is said that defense is generally flattering him.Fortunately, there are many players in the Jazz who can wipe his ass, so there is no trouble.

Now in almost every round of the Timberwolves, pitchers open up the space. Jordan goes up to the high post to provide a screen, which means that the other four people all serve Xu Hao. With such support, Xu Hao plays Deron as if he is playing, and he can play whatever he wants. how to spell.

Deron's most famous stalk is "eat and sleep and beat Paul", which means that no matter how bad his state is, as long as he beats Paul, he will be motivated. Regardless of whether the Jazz can win the game in the end, he has the upper hand against Paul. .But this rule is useless if you change someone else, even if Xu Hao is just a rookie this year, his NBA experience can only be described as lacking.

When facing off against Deron, Xu Hao showed off all kinds of skills, including pull-up jumpers from beyond the three-point line, small floaters after breakthroughs, hand-to-hand coordination with teammates and then cutting for layups, leaning on The defender uses his steps under the basket to score...

It can be seen that Xu Hao did learn something from Kobe this summer. Many of his movements have Kobe's shadow, which looks very similar.This also reflects his hard work to a certain extent. If it were any other rookie, it would be no problem to spend a lot of money after getting the money. Who would be prepared for danger in times of peace like Xu Hao, and give himself extra training in advance to improve his strength?

When there were more than 4 minutes left in the first quarter, Xu Hao was replaced by McHale. His jersey was already soaked in sweat, and there were crystal beads of sweat on the tips of his hair.But he looked very excited. It seemed that the confrontation on the court just now was as easy as eating and drinking. If McHale was not ready to let the bench lineup go for a walk, he could have played longer.

When Xu Hao left the field, his score had increased to 16 points, including 6 of 4 three-pointers.Fans may have seen such Xu Hao in the NCAA, but after entering the NBA, this is the first time he has shown his fangs.

The reason why McHale substituted Xu Hao nearly a minute early was to prevent this kid from exerting too much force during the game. You must know that he has just gotten out of a sluggish state, and he cannot cause any problems because he plays for too long.

Sitting on the bench, Xu Hao's heart is also very stable, because his outstanding performance helped the Timberwolves establish a double-digit lead, and this time McHale only replaced him for the time being, and Love and the others were still present up!Maintaining that lead until Sloan came off the bench wasn't a difficult task for them.

Xu Hao took a rest until the second quarter began for more than 3 minutes. If the Jazz hadn't narrowed the point difference to 5 points, McHale could continue to put him on the bench depending on his posture.The effect of Xu Hao's debut can be said to be immediate. He has been holding back for a long time, and scoring 16 points in the first quarter is not enough for him to vent all his inner emotions.

This time the victim was replaced by the Jazz's backup point guard, Price, who was not as tall and strong as Deron, so Xu Hao bullied him hard at the elbow, and almost every round took the form of post-up singles to attack .Even if the Jazz double-team Price when he is alone, he can pass the ball to the basket or a teammate outside the three-point line in time, which also achieves the goal.

In this quarter, Xu Hao added 11 points and 6 assists to his statistics. In this way, he scored 27 points and 8 assists in the half, which is basically one game in most of his previous games. The data.Such a desperate performance even made McHale chat with him during the intermission, wondering if Xu Hao still has energy in the second half.

There is no doubt about it, Xu Hao patted his chest and told the head coach that he could do the same thing again.

Xu Hao didn't break his promise, and hit a difficult three-pointer as soon as he played in the third quarter, blowing the horn of offense.Sloan also tried to carry out a targeted defense, but he couldn't hold back Xu Hao's explosive performance tonight. Unless Sloan had the courage to double-team the three, the other defenses were basically chickens and dogs in front of Xu Hao, which would not have much effect , can only continue to be humiliated by him.

Xu Hao did not rest throughout the third quarter. He played for 12 minutes and continued to score 15 points, raising his total score to 42 points. At the same time, his assists were also in double figures.At the end of the third quarter, the Timberwolves had extended their lead to 17 points. During these 36 minutes, the Jazz were basically pinned to the ground by them, unable to fight back.

However, Xu Hao played for a few more minutes in the fourth quarter, because the Jazz were unwilling to lose and set off a wave of counterattacks.Fortunately, Xu Hao still felt good. He scored 3 three-pointers and stopped the opponent directly. Sloan also had no choice but to replace him as a substitute, so the game was over.

McHale accepted as soon as he saw it, and also replaced Xu Hao. With his performance of 51 points, 6 rebounds and 13 assists in this game, the major media in the United States will no longer think that he is trapped in the rookie wall. Maybe it's a parallel import?
