The NBA started with helping Iverson win the championship

Chapter 386 Owen and Trey Young
The arrangement of the old Hornacek is quite effective.

At least there is no such cancer as Shuila on the court, and the Knicks are playing more like a dynasty team.

Especially when Adebayor plays, it can help Jokic relieve the pressure on the basket.

Of course, the disadvantages are not without. The Knicks have no point guards on the court, and they can only control the ball to the frontcourt by pickled peppers.

Pickled peppers have a certain organizational ability, but not many.

As a big player with the right to eat the ball, when the ball is in his hands, in fact, there is basically no return.

Of course, he must have a much higher offensive efficiency than Shuila.

The Knicks fans at the scene were shocked. The Pacers before them were really clowns in front of the Knicks.

It was a completely beaten existence.

But now with the joining of Li Xun and some newcomers, this Pacers actually fought back and forth with the Knicks, and even had some advantages.

Especially Brother Sun in the No. [-] position gave the fans a great surprise.

A surprise for Pacers fans, a shock for Knicks fans.

Shui La couldn't defend against him, but it could be explained. After all, everyone knew that Shui La's defense was the worst.

But when faced with the defense of Pickled Pepper, Brother Sun was able to play with ease.

Although the offensive efficiency must have declined, but as a new melon egg, he can hit [-]% of the field goals when facing pickled peppers, which is really scary.

This doesn't look like a newcomer.

Not only is Brother Sun's side shocking, but after Paojiao went to play No. [-], Doncic's combat power was released.

This greasy-haired young man also performed exceptionally well, playing both offensively and defensively in an orderly manner.

Even his passing is impressive.

It has been a long time since a super versatile small forward like Doncic has appeared in the league.

As the Knicks made substitutions, the Pacers followed suit, replacing Turner and putting the juniors on the bench.

As soon as he played, the younger brother didn't care about 21 [-], and he attacked fiercely when he got the ball.

In the first three shots, only one was scored, which is not very efficient.

Some fans couldn't help ridiculing the strength of the younger brother. He is the label of Li Xun's draft taint, and there is obviously no way to wash it away.

But with the name, the situation is a bit wrong.

The basket has always been the junior's shortcoming, but in the next shot, the junior's accuracy is a bit outrageous.

Whether it's a mid-range shot or a three-pointer, it's almost how you shoot.

Even Li Xun was secretly amazed.

In the end, it was Rock Richmond who was able to enter Jordan's eyes. The younger brother really got lucky this time.

In the Jordan era, it can be said that there are very few players who can get positive comments from Jordan.

Jordan said that Richmond is the second shooting guard in the league after himself. In fact, his intention was not to say that Richmond was not as strong as himself.

But listening to this sentence after 20 years, the taste is completely different.

"Give the young people a chance, tonight is their first show."

"You still have a full season to prove yourself, there is no need to grab so many balls tonight."

"Good guy, I don't have as many shots as you do now."

Seeing his younger brother getting more and more crazy, Li Xun couldn't help reminding him aloud.

The younger brother held his mouth and felt a little wronged. Isn't he a young man in Li Xun's mind?
He has been sinking for several seasons, and he finally found his feeling tonight.

But Li Xun is God in his heart, and God has spoken, so he certainly can't continue to make crazy shots.

"Okay, boss."

"Then you must give me a few more shots in the next game."

"How do I feel that something happened to me that science can't explain? It feels so good."

The younger brother also felt strange about how he felt tonight.

After starting 3-of-1, in the next 5 minutes, he took 6 shots and hit [-] of them.

Two of the three three-pointers were hit, and all three mid-range shots were scored.

That is, in a little over half a quarter, he has already scored 12 points.

"Okay, if you still have this touch in the next game, I will let you take more shots."

Li Xun said with a smile.

Hearing that Li Xun was helping him to get the ball, Brother Sun and Doncic on the court were very moved.

The boss of a team can do this, no wonder so many players are willing to follow Li Xun.

Soon, halftime was over.

With a score of 57:55 in the first half, the Knicks temporarily led the Pacers by two points.

After all, the Pacers are focusing on two rookies tonight. Even with Li Xun at the basket to protect the rebounds, it's hard to say that they can really bring down a towering tree like the Knicks.

However, starting from the second half, Li Xun gradually exerted his strength, and the balance has gradually tilted towards the Pacers.

Li Xun's lethality is really terrifying. Even under the basket facing Jokic and Adebayor's defense, Li Xun can still easily score points.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the Pacers narrowly won by 3 points.

After winning the Knicks, Li Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, he was even prepared to lose to the Knicks before the game.

After all, in this lineup of the Pacers, apart from himself and Oladipo, there is no high-end combat power in the team.

Newcomers like Doncic and Brother Sun will have to wait at least half a season before they can initially show their combat effectiveness.

Now that I have won, I have to thank Shuila.

If it wasn't for Shuila who dug a big hole for the Knicks at the beginning, the Pacers would have a high chance of losing tonight.

Li Xun didn't know why Zen master would trade Tatum for Shuila.

According to Li Xun's guess, maybe Zen Master wanted to prove his vision.

In the first two seasons, when the Lakers wanted to sell water, the first thing they looked for was the Knicks.

As a result, Li Xun refused at the time, and said that unless the Lakers were willing to take two more draft picks, and then give away water for nothing, the deal could be successful.

At that time, Zen Master wanted Shuila, after all, he was a young point guard with unlimited potential.

But Li Xun didn't want it, and he couldn't resist Li Xun's decision.

Now that Li Xun is gone, he immediately traded Shuila over, most likely because he wanted to prove that Li Xun's decision at that time was wrong.

The result is now better, and the cancer of Shuila has directly become a dragging factor for the Knicks lineup.

Use it, it's too cancerous on the court, maybe when he is on the court, the team's offensive and defensive efficiency will drop.

No need, first of all, the team does not have a point guard now, and then the players Tatum traded for, is it possible to hide it?
Isn't the Zen master slapping himself in the face, making the whole world laugh at him for being blind?
Now the Zen master is also riding a tiger, and I don’t know whether to use water or not.

Li Xun doesn't have so many troubles here. The players in the 2018 draft are really easy to use.

Brother Sun played extremely well tonight, scoring 37 points, and also scored 8 assists and 3 steals.

The offensive efficiency is not bad, with a 50% shooting rate, and the three-point shooting rate is as high as 42%.

This kind of performance is definitely among the best rookie debuts in NBA history. In this battle alone, Brother Sun directly achieved super popularity.

However, the data in the first show is strong, and it is not uncommon for everyone to lose their careers.

For example, McAway in the past two years is almost unable to survive in the NBA now.

In addition to Brother Sun, Doncic's performance tonight is also very impressive, with 18 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, directly coming to a quasi-triple-double data.

It is actually very rare for a rookie to hit this level of data in his first show.

Pacers fans are extremely happy. With these two mature and stable rookies, their Pacers' record this season is definitely not bad.

Some veterans in the team also shined in this game.

The strength of this Pacers team is far stronger than expected by the outside world.

The head coach Brandon Roy on the sidelines let out a long sigh of relief.

This game is the first show of the rookie in the team. In fact, it is not the NBA debut of his young coach.

The last time he appeared in the NBA, it had to be traced back to 13 years, when he was just traded to the Timberwolves by the Trail Blazers.

After the Timberwolves only played a total of 5 games, his career was over.

Now, five years later, he is back, but this time as a coach.

This time, he was sure that his career would definitely not be just five or six years long.

Maybe I can break into a bigger world in the NBA in the position of coach.

After playing the Knicks, the Pacers continued their road trip, and their opponent in the next game was the Eagles.

After leaving the Knicks, the most inconvenient place is the next annual opener, which is estimated to start with an away game.

The Eagles are now a well-known team in the East, not to mention the Pacers after Li Xun joined.

Even if Li Xun didn't come, the Eagles were no match for the Pacers.

Originally, there was no focus in this game. After all, the Pacers have already won the Knicks, and it is completely easy to beat the Eagles.

But before the start of the game, Chu Yang, a rookie in the Eagles, faced the reporter's questions and started talking big.

"I don't think our Eagles are weaker than the Pacers."

"We will definitely win this game."

"The Pacers rookie point guard can score 37 points, I think I can score at least [-] points."

"Of course, the premise is that Li Xun didn't come to match me."

Fake Chuiyang's temperament is fearless, and he has not been beaten by the society so far, so he doesn't know what kind of situation these words will put him in.

He has a lot of complaints about Li Xun.

At the time of the draft, he heard that he was selected by Li Xun, and he was so happy in his heart.

Many rookies of the same class are congratulating themselves.

As a result, by the second day of the draft, he was ready to report to the Pacers.

As a result, he suddenly received a call from the Eagles, informing him of the deal.

This news directly poured cold water on him.

After playing for a long time, his value in Li Xun's mind is not as good as that of a white striker? !

Blowing Yang to Li Xun, this is a typical love-to-hate relationship.

Li Xun is also old now, facing the provocation of these children, he didn't take it seriously at all.

It is normal for young people to be angry, after all, I have also come from youth.

As for going solo against Yang, Li Xun is not that interested.

This season, my own position is the [-]th or [-]th position. Only when I am full will I defend the opponent's [-]st position.

And there is really no need for Li Xun to teach a kid like Chuan Yang a lesson.

Rondo alone can tidy up Chu Yang submissively.

The careers of the two have no overlap. When Chuan Yang entered the league, under normal circumstances, Rondo was already on the bench.

However, the two also had a record of opponents who were both starters.

In that game, Rondo allowed Chu Yang to score 22 points.

Watching a rookie score 22 points seems like a lot.

But in that game, Chu Yang only made 19 of 6 shots. If it weren't for 9 of 7 free throws, his data panel would be quite miserable.

Two days later, the game against the Hawks began.

The starting lineup for the Pacers tonight is the five-man team of Li Xun, Doncic, juniors, Oladipo and Rondo.

A serious lineup of five death squads.

After the players from both sides came on the field, Rondo grinned directly at Chuan Yang.

Rondo is definitely capable of dealing with such arrogant young people. Whether it is in terms of spirit or statistics, he can make life worse for young people.

Chui Yang saw Rondo's expression and felt a little flustered.

Tonight is the first game of the season for the Eagles, so it's also Chui Yang's career debut.

He now regrets the big talk before the game.

If Rondo is completely locked up tonight, he will become a joke.

The game started.

In the first offensive round, Li Xun scored in a low single from the basket on the Pacers side.

When it came to the Eagles, Chu Yang made a three-pointer and even hit it.

This three-pointer directly boosted Chu Yang's confidence. It seems that Rondo is not as terrible as the rumors say.

This idea only lasted 3 minutes.

Because in the next 3 minutes, he made three shots without scoring a point.

Li Xun also paid attention to Xia Chuiyang's performance at the beginning, but he didn't pay much attention to it in the follow-up.

He still has a good understanding of the technical characteristics of blowing Yang.

A bit similar to Irving, but the overall ability is weaker than Irving.

Many fans will definitely be dissatisfied with this evaluation. After all, the sophomore can score an average of 29.6 points per game, and Irving has not scored such an average in any season in his entire career.

In terms of scoring, Irving is indeed not as good as Yang Duo, but the offensive efficiency of the two is actually not at the same level.

Owen is a member of the 180 club, and he is far behind in playing Yang.

In addition, defensive ability is obviously better than Irving.

Chui Yang's defensive efficiency of 117 in the first two seasons of his career is a bit outrageous.

It is equivalent to saying that the opposing player can score 117 points every [-] rounds with his head on his head.

And his offensive efficiency in the previous two seasons was 107 and 114, both of which were lower than his defensive efficiency.

On the other hand, Owen's side is much better than Chu Yang.

Compared with Irving, Chui Yang is more nervous.

When he feels good, he is also a god of defense.

But if he doesn't feel good, his lower limit is much lower than Irving's.

Although Owen is talking about not doing personnel affairs, but in terms of strength, he is indeed not black.
