knife point guard

Chapter 248 [I want to get along with you as a gentle elder]

Indiana Pacers 4:0 New Jersey Nets.

Miami Heat 4:1 Philadelphia [-]ers.

Detroit Pistons 4:1 Washington Wizards.

Chicago Bulls 4:2 Boston Celtics.

There were no surprises in the first round of the Eastern Conference, with all four teams in the top half advancing.The same is true in the West. The Phoenix Suns eliminated the Memphis Grizzlies 4:1, the San Antonio Spurs eliminated the Denver Nuggets 4:0, the Seattle SuperSonics eliminated the Sacramento Kings 4:2, and the Dallas Mavericks eliminated the Houston Rockets 4:2.

Basically, there is no suspense. The only thing that caused an uproar in public opinion is that the Rockets actually lost 4 games in a row to the Mavericks despite winning two away games.

The Rockets made a fuss and made a fuss.

The Pacers welcomed their second-round opponent, the Chicago Bulls.

The Bulls are a youth army, and their reconstruction has been very effective. They entered the playoffs this season and entered the second round.

Before the series started, Suhi spoke highly of the Bulls.

No one finds it awkward.

Even though most of the 'young people' on the Bulls are older than him, who makes Su Xi a serious double MVP and the embryo of a historical superstar?

In Nike's recent promotion, Su Xi was directly called "one of the future rulers of the NBA."One of these, of course, is to give LeBron James some face. After all, James is also a player under his banner.

Hinrich was unhappy with Susie's comments.Hinrich was also a player in the 2003 class, and his draft pick was higher than Suhi. Although they played against each other in the college league, Suxi killed him in the finals.But he was never convinced. Even though Su Xi was now a double MVP, he still felt that he could complete his revenge.

After all, the Bulls are not bad this time either.

...

Su Xi finished the phone call with Scarlett Johansson in the locker room. Johnson and Jessica had reached a tacit understanding that they would stop fighting each other during the playoffs.

They themselves understand it very well.It is simply impossible to let the opponent disappear from Jack Su's world, and Jack is a man who puts his career first. If big news is made during the important playoffs and it is self-defeating, he may really abandon himself.

There is a degree to everything, and they know it very well.

The Bulls' starting lineup tonight is: Hinrich, Ben Gordon, Noccioni, Antonio Davis, Tyson Chandler.

The Pacers' starting lineup is: Suhi, Artest, Stephen Jackson, Jermaine O'Neal, Jeff Foster.

Chandler beat Foster on a jump ball on the opening possession.

Hinrich dribbled the ball across half court, and Suhi blocked his way at the top of the key.Antonio Davis quickly stepped forward to cover for him. He successfully got rid of Su Xi's defense, moved a step laterally, took off and shot... swish!

In the opening game, Hinrich hit a 3-pointer.

Get the lead for the Bulls.

After scoring, he said trash talk to Su Xi: "Jack, how is my shooting level now?"

Su Xi didn't hear his weirdness and replied: "Not bad."

In Su Xi's heart, he had not regarded Hinrich as his "imaginary enemy" for a long time. He did not feel that Hinrich could bring any threat to him.He also doesn't think Hinrich would consider him to be on the same level as him.

Therefore, Su Xi dribbled the ball across half court.He didn't have the grudge to retaliate. When he saw O'Neal Jr. getting stuck in the paint, he immediately passed the basketball in.

O'Neal Jr. posted up Antonio Davis.

Davis is a veteran, a second-round pick, and a former member of the Pacers. He gradually became worth tens of millions and was even selected as an All-Star when he was with the Raptors.

He is very experienced in dealing with Xiao Ao, and Xiao Ao turned around continuously without getting rid of him.

Just as he was about to forcefully lean back...pop!

Davis slapped the basketball down.

And quickly controlled it and passed it to Hinrich.

The Bulls fought back.

Su Xi caught up, and Hinrich passed a long pass to Nocchioni. The Argentine received the basketball and shot directly one meter away from the three-point line... Stephen Jackson didn't even react.

Are all Argentinian players so crazy?
Swish!
He was arrested in response.

Noccioni hit a 3-pointer.

The opening score was 6:0.

"The person who came here is not a good person." Artest said in Su Xi's ear.

Su Xi clapped her hands: "Cheer up."

Su Xi received the basketball from Jackson. He sped up the rhythm and quickly came to the frontcourt. He passed Hinrich with a sharp change of direction, and then fiercely entered the penalty area, using a perfect back pass in the process. Turning around and passing Noccioni's defense, he entered the penalty area and jumped up. Tyson Chandler and Davis jumped at the same time to attack.

Both of these two are masters of frame protection, and they have the effect of blocking out the sky and the sun.

Su Xi passed the basketball between the gaps.

Foster got the basketball and he shot it quickly... swoosh!

Basketball hit.

But Tyson Chandler was very mobile and he almost blocked the basketball.

He is worthy of being the second-place pick in 2001, a super high school student whose talent is surpassed only by Kwame Brown.

Tyson Chandler is extremely talented defensively and is tall and has long arms.

Su Xi looked at him, with a feeling of 'coveting for his body' in her eyes.

He likes this kind of defensive center very much. It doesn't matter even if the offense is a little worse, as long as he can take the cake.

There is no need for strong independent offensive capabilities.

"You fought pretty well."

Su Xi praised Tyson Chandler: "Follow me if you have the opportunity in the future."

Tyson Chandler rolled his eyes at that time. He thought to himself: I was the second pick in 2001. I have more seniority than you. Why should I work with you?Besides, I am the absolute core of the Bulls inside, what am I doing with you?Learn about bulls not for sale.

The game continues.

Bulls are indeed somewhat less afraid of tigers than newborn calves.

Hinrich, under Su Xi's tight defense, passed the basketball to Ben Gordon, who caught the ball. He ignored Artest's defense in front of him and jumped directly... Whoops!

Came a three pointer.

Artest was surprised.

This kid is a little crazy.

Looking at the entire NBA, who dares to shoot Artest like this?
After Ben Gordon scored, he didn't even pay attention to Artest and said directly to Su Xi: "Jack, what do you think my shooting is better than mine?"

"Better than them."

Su Xi gave a thumbs up.

Ben Gordon is excited.

The Pacers played a bit conservatively, mainly because O'Neal Jr. failed to bully the weak in the paint area, and Antonio Davis knew him well.

Suhi also had trouble getting to the basket, and Tyson Chandler and Antonio Davis were very capable in assisting defense.And... Noccioni is really good at diving.

When Su Xi reached the basket for the second time, he fell to the ground... Although it was a flop, he fell straight, and his head hit the floor with a clang.

Even if the referee didn't give him an offensive foul, he would be sorry for his acting skills.

The Bulls played crazy in the first quarter, and their shots were resolute and decisive.

The Pacers are relatively conservative, and their tactics are somewhat restrained by the Bulls.

The Bulls lineup is very good.

31:23.The Bulls led by 8 points in the first quarter.

After the start of the second quarter, the Pacers did not change their tactics.

They believe that the Bulls' madness cannot last the entire game. As long as they play steadily, once the Bulls' shooting percentage drops, the Pacers will be able to defeat them with their rich experience.

However, the plan cannot keep up with the changes.

When Kirk Hinrich once again gained space through an Antonio Davis screen and hit a long two-pointer in the 3rd minute of the second quarter, he had this to say to Susie: "Jake, it's time to get it back on you." It’s something that belongs to me.”

Ok?
Su Xi frowned.

"You can't beat me all the time, this series is the time to put things right."

After Hinrich said this, beep!

Susie reached out and asked for a timeout.

She originally wanted to get along with you as a gentle elder, but in exchange she became more aggressive and intrusive. No longer pretending, Su Xi decided to have a fight with Hinrich.

Su Xi and Carlisle chatted cordially for a while, and the Pacers made substitutions.

Kenny Anderson comes in, Reggie Miller comes in, Tony Batty comes in.Plus Suzy and O'Neal.

Originally, Su Xi wanted to use the Bulls' madness to temper the Pacers' defensive endurance.

Now that Hinrich is so provocative, there is no need for this.

Anderson dribbled the ball across half court and passed it to Su Xi.

It is still Hinrich who defends Su Xi.

Hinrich's defensive ability is very good. He is especially good at defending fast and aggressive players. Wade loses his level every time he encounters him. He can be regarded as Wade's terminator... This can even be traced back to the NCAA Final Four. In the 2003 NCAA Final Four, Wade was eliminated by Hinrich by a large margin, and then was severely repaired by Su Xi in the finals, winning an unprecedented super quadruple-double in the NCAA finals.

Su Xi received the basketball on the wing, he suddenly sank down, made a classic breakthrough fake move, and suddenly thrust forward with his left foot.

Hinrich's center of gravity moved forward at that time.

At this time, Su Xi quickly turned sideways and dribbled the ball smoothly, leaving Hinrich's defense aside.

Kobe, who was sitting on the sidelines, nodded repeatedly. Su Xi used this move very sharply.

Very skilled and very classical.

Moreover, Kobe was helpless to find that although his technical movements were the same as his own.But Su Xi's prodding step is more sharp, her hands are longer and more varied, and her breakthrough moment feels like Jordan's.

Jordan's explosive power and speed are among the best in history.

In this regard, Kobe can only rely on technology to make up for it.

Su Xi doesn't need it.

Hinrich was thrown aside like a loser. He tried his best to change his inertia and pursued him hard. Su Xi began to play with him.He suddenly stopped suddenly, and Xinrich quickly stepped back. He staggered forward to meet him, and Su Xi suddenly turned her back, shook her shoulders deftly, then turned around and jumped to take action.

All in one go.

Hinrich was unable to provide substantial defense at all.

He watched helplessly as the basketball flew out of his head. He didn't even dare to jump to block the shot because his center of gravity could no longer support him.

Swish!
The basketball goes through the net.

Hinrich was played by Su Xi in a downright humiliating manner on a technical level.

Although Su Xi's current super offensive skill is only 87 points, with the blessing of physical fitness, he can easily defeat Hinrich's defense.There's no need to even challenge him.

"What did you just say? Say it again!"

Su Xi stared at Hinrich.

Su Xi's eyes were full of majesty.

Hinrich didn't dare to answer the question for a moment.

The game continues.

Su Xi defended Hinrich and increased his intensity.When Antonio covered again, Su Xi quickly went around. After all, Su Xi is a man with full flexibility and talent. He is the best in the league in breaking pick and rolls!First in history!

The reason why Su Xi didn't have such high-intensity entanglement before was because he wanted to polish the overall defense more.

Now that Hinrich has said such cruel words, there is no need to look at the bull and just pester him.

In fact, the Bulls' offense does not require the Pacers to take it seriously.

This kind of dimensionality reduction consumption is killing them.

Su Xi pestered Hinrich.

He hesitated and finally passed the basketball.

Ben Gordon received the basketball and Anderson blocked it early.

Anderson is older. Unlike Artest, who likes to do everything in one game, he just interferes with Ben Gordon's rhythm.

boom!
Ben Gordon shoots the iron.

Tony Barty under the basket got the basketball and passed it to Su Xi.

Su Xi dribbled the ball forward. He landed directly on the wing and beat Hinrich with a back single.

Hinrich's power confrontation was not weak, but Su Xi attacked hard, and he couldn't help but retreat.Su Xi pushed forward two steps in a row and turned his back to get the offensive window. Noccioni quickly came over to block it. Su Xi flicked his wrist and Reggie Miller caught the ball and shot... Whoosh!

Three point hit.

Easy.

Carlisle on the sidelines frowned and muttered: "It turns out Jack is a super shooting guard."

Su Xi's passing ability is probably above average when playing a point guard, but if he is playing a shooting guard, he is definitely among the top shooting guards.

At least, Kobe Bryant sitting next to him on the bench doesn’t have that kind of passing ability.

Larry Bird watched with joy from the high platform, and he could see Su Xi's progress this season.Su Xi's singles level has improved from being completely ignorant to an above-average level in the league in just one season. How strong it is.

With his almighty skills, who can compete with him in the future?
Maybe he can really create another era of defenders dominating the league.

pity.

Larry Bird knew very well that the Pacers probably wouldn't be able to keep Susie.

Otherwise, why would Kobe Bryant fly over from Los Angeles eagerly?

The folk customs here in Indiana are more conservative, and there are no entertainment activities to make him happy here.

At this time, Kobe was also thinking: Jack occupies one wing, and I am on the other side. We are each other's horns. Looking at the entire NBA, who dares to mess with the Lakers?

And the little sheep Su Xi is very versatile.

The entanglement defense is unparalleled in the world.

Those who are better than him in positional isolation are not as capable of breaking through and killing as much as him.

Players who have similar breakthrough kills as him are not as good at moving and hitting open three-pointers as he is.

There are no players who are better at moving around and hitting open three-pointers than him, and none of them can play in isolation.

Perfect closed loop!

This is the super partner God gave me.

Between the two of us, who is Jordan Pippen?
We can win at least eight championships, and eight consecutive championships!
Kobe Bryant thought so.
