super point guard

Chapter 136 Physical Problem
In the third quarter, the Indiana Pacers successfully overtook the score under the passing organization of Xu Nuo. At the end of the third quarter, the Indiana Pacers led by one point at 67:66. With double-digit assists, there are still seven points in the account.When Derrick Rose was replaced by backup point guard John Lucas III by Chicago Bulls coach Tom Tebodeau with 56:[-] seconds left in the third quarter, Derrick Rose He let out a long breath, and seemed to feel a lot lighter in an instant.

"Playing with that rookie kid on Promise is really like playing in an NBA Finals," Derrick Rose said to center Joakim Noah next to him as he took his seat on the sidelines.

"It can be seen that the rookie kid is not easy to deal with." Joakim Noah said.

"Just in the first three quarters of the game, I have already got ten assists. This is the data of a super point guard in the NBA. It is really not easy." Derrick Rose said panting, "It is said that he is the next one. John Stockton really can't be overstated, really a very promising point guard!"

"Aren't you as good as that rookie kid?" Joakim Noah asked.

"One day he will surpass me, and one day in the future he will definitely become the number one point guard in the NBA." Derrick Rose said.

This sentence was said by Derrick Rose to Joakim Noah, not to the journalists during the interview, so this sentence can be said to be what Derek Rose said sincerely.

Neither Promise nor Derrick Rose appeared on the court in the first half of the fourth quarter. The Indiana Pacers' point guard was George Hill, who was good at defense. Underneath, Chicago Bulls backup point guard CJ Watson had the hardest time on the court.Without the passing organization of the point guard, the already unsmooth Chicago Bulls offense became even more stagnant.Chicago Bulls head coach Tom Tebodeau had no choice but to send Derrick Rose again.

"The Chicago Bulls in the away game once again showed their ace!" Jeff Van Gundy, who was explaining at the Conseco Arena, said, "There is only the last half of the game before the end of the game. The two teams coming to the court are about to enter the final decisive stage!"

However, when Derrick Rose walked onto the court, there were bursts of boos from the stands around the court.Perhaps because the Chicago Bulls led by Derrick Rose eliminated the Indiana Pacers in the first round of the playoffs last season, it is understandable that the fans in the Conseco Arena did not welcome Derrick Rose of.Derrick Rose hit an outside three-pointer as soon as he came on the court. The Chicago Bulls rewritten the score to 76:79, and the difference between the two teams was only three points.

"Promise, get ready to play!" Coach Larry Brown turned around and said to promise sitting on the bench.

"Yes!" Although Xu Nuo still felt very tired at this time, Xu Nuo stood up immediately when coach Larry Brown called his name, took off his coat and prepared to go on the field.And when Xu Nuo's figure appeared on the court again, the fans in the stands immediately cheered like a tsunami.

"Promise! Promise! Promise!" The shouts in the Conseco Arena were one after another, almost chanting "MVP", but it was not realistic to shout "MVP" to a rookie player who had just entered the league.Amidst the cheers at the scene, Xu Nuo quickly ran into the field.

"These fans are really saving face!" Xu Nuo thought in his heart, and immediately showed an expression of enjoying the atmosphere of the scene.

However, it is not enough to just enjoy the atmosphere of the scene. Xu Nuo should continue his outstanding performance in the first three quarters.But Xu Nuo soon discovered that it seemed difficult for him to continue his outstanding performance in the first three quarters, and there was only one main reason for this situation, that is, Xu Nuo's physical strength was almost reaching its limit at this time.

"You are indeed a very potential point guard, but now your physical strength is almost at its limit." Derrick Rose said to Xu Nuo.

"How do you know?" Xu Nuo frowned.

"Because your movement speed is much slower than before," Derek Rose said, "and I can also see that you have become very anxious now."

Xu Nuo let out a sigh of relief, and passed the ball in his hand without continuing to talk to Derek Rose.Danny Granger missed his own offense, and the Chicago Bulls took the ball to launch a quick counterattack, promising that it was already difficult to keep up with the fast-breaking Derrick Rose in the defense.Derrick Rose scored an easy fast-break layup, and the Chicago Bulls once again took the lead with 82:81.

Coach Brian Shaw, the chief assistant coach of the Indiana Pacers who was sitting on the sidelines of the court, saw Xu Xu who was exhausted on the court, turned his head and said to Coach Larry Brown, "Maybe we should have allowed Xu Nuo to rest for a while. .”

"If the physical strength of the current promise has reached the extreme, then the extreme should soon pass." Coach Larry Brown said without raising his head.

Although coach Larry Brown said so, although the promise of physical strength has passed, the promise at this time is already at the end of its strength.Throughout the fourth quarter, Xu Nuo sent out only one assist, and it was not until the last moment of the game that he managed to increase his score in this game to double digits.After Xu made two free throws, the buzzer in the Conseco Arena rang, and George Hill stepped onto the court, pointing his finger at Xu.

"It is estimated that you will not play again after you leave the court this time." The backup shooting guard Deng Tai Jones who high-fived Xu Nuo said to Xu Nuo.

"Perhaps." Xu Nuo panted, and sat down on his chair and stopped talking.

Although the team led the opponent Chicago Bulls at the last moment of the game, the Indiana Pacers at home still failed to keep the victory in the game. They lost to the Chicago Bulls by 90:91 and failed to surpass their opponents. Top spot in the Upper East.Xu Xu scored [-] points and [-] assists in the game, but Xu Xu's outstanding performance was only limited to the first three quarters of the game.

When Xu Nuo got up and walked to the team locker room when the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Xu Nuo heard a fan not far away shouting loudly: "Xu Nuo, come on!"

Xu Nuo just smiled at the fan who was cheering for him, and continued to walk towards the locker room with his head down in frustration.

"Why didn't we continue our good form throughout the game!" In the players' locker room, coach Larry Brown shouted at the players, "Our ups and downs in a game are no longer It happened once! Tonight we fell behind, then equalized and overtook, but finally fell short at the last moment of the game! If we can maintain a good state throughout the game, we should have won tonight's game down!"

Xu Nuo listened to coach Larry Brown's loud reprimand, bowed his head and said nothing.Coach Larry Brown glanced at Xu Nuo, paused for a moment, and said, "If there are only three quarters in tonight's game, then the best player tonight can be said to be our rookie Xu Nuo. But the game has four quarters, It's not three quarters. If it's just a matter of physical strength, I don't think we would have been so weak in the fourth quarter."

Xu Nuo knew that Coach Larry Brown was talking about himself, and continued to lower his head without saying a word.

"Promise, I think you should really train your strength in the weight room." Coach Larry Brown looked at Xu Xu and said, "Perhaps your physical strength will not have any problems at the beginning of the season, but as the season progresses, As you go deeper, the problem of your lack of physical strength will definitely gradually surface, and I think you should have realized this long ago."

"Yes, Coach Brown!" Xu Nuo nodded.

"Coach Brown, the performance promised tonight is already very good. After all, the opponent promised tonight is the MVP-level player Derek Rose." Danny Granger said.

"I know," Coach Larry Brown said sternly, "there are still many MVP-level players we have to face in the future. The road ahead of us is still very rough. We must be prepared in all aspects. If the promise is not If he trains his strength properly, then in the following matches, the opponent will still look at this weak point of the promise to attack, and in this way we will be completely passive!"

"Coach Brown is right." Danny Granger said, and then said to Xu Nuo: "I will accompany you to the weight room to practice strength."

"Okay, thank you." Xu Nuo said.

So Danny Granger and Xu Nuo avoided the post-match reporter interviews, went to the weight room to train strength, and did not leave the arena until very late.And I promised myself that I am willing to go to the weight room to train more, not only because of my weak performance in the fourth quarter of tonight's game, but also because of my lack of physical strength before tonight's game , also because after tonight's game, promises to face five consecutive away games.These five road games were all played in the Western Conference west of the Mississippi River, so Promise began his first Western expedition of his career.
