super point guard

Chapter 23 Don't Underestimate Him

David West's second free throw also hit the basket steadily, and the Indiana Pacers once again approached the score on the court. The score became 9:10, and the Indiana Pacers trailed the Orlando Magic by one point.

The Orlando Magic began to reorganize their offense.

But when Orlando Magic point guard Jameer Nelson was dribbling through half court, he noticed something.

The thing is, the one who came forward to defend him was no longer Darren Collison who had been severely humiliated by him, but a yellow-skinned guy who looked taller than him. A point guard.

The new point guard, of course, is the promise.

But Jameer Nelson doesn't know promise.

"Who is this kid?" Jamil Nelson wondered inwardly, "Why have I never seen such a No. [-] figure in the NBA?"

At first when Jamil Nelson saw Xu Nuo, he thought it was Sun Yue who had returned to the NBA, but Jamil Nelson remembered that Sun Yue was taller than the young man in front of him.

"It doesn't look like Sun Yue," Jamil Nelson thought to himself. "Could it be a rookie player this year? With such a thin body, he still wants to play in the NBA? What a joke!"

Jamil Nelson was thinking about it, and the expression on his face couldn't help but changed from a look of doubt to a look of disdain and contempt.

And bending down to face Jameer Nelson's promise with full concentration, he also found that the expression on Jameer Nelson's face changed from doubt to disdain.

"It seems that Nelson didn't pay attention to me at all, thinking that I was not his opponent," Xu Nuo thought in his heart, "I'll show him some color before he understands me, and let them Also take a look, we in China can also step out of the top point guard!"

With Xu Nuo thinking this way, he became more focused on defense.

Jameer Nelson seemed determined to commit himself one-on-one, and the rest of the Orlando Magic seemed to be making room for Jameer Nelson.Jameer Nelson dribbled the ball slowly against Xu, then suddenly sped up.

"Here we come!" Xu Nuo shouted in his heart.

But Jameer Nelson's dribble breakthrough was just a fake move. Xu Nuo was almost fooled by Nelson's shaking, but Jameer Nelson had already broken through from Xu Nuo's side.

However, at this moment, the scene of Jameer Nelson's dribble breakthrough, in Xu Nuo's eyes, became a picture of stagnation.

Jameer Nelson's dribbling breakthrough was originally very coherent and completed in one go, but it was the moment when Jameer Nelson broke through the promise. Although it was only [-] seconds, the promise had already used his extraordinary reaction Speed, snatching the ball from behind Jameer Nelson in the hands of a "stalled" Jameer Nelson.

Xu Nuo succeeded in stealing, and immediately dribbled the ball towards the basket of the Orlando Magic. Jamil Nelson had just been stealed by Xu Nuo, and before he could react, it was Orlando Magic's power forward Brandon Barton who was chasing Xu Nuo. s.But Brandon Bass is not the opponent of promise in terms of speed at all. Bass tried his best and failed to catch up with promise who ran like the wind.Promised to the basket of the Orlando Magic, jumped high.

Danny Granger has seen Xu Nuo's jumping before. In that one-on-one match between himself and Xu Nuo, Xu Nuo once used his jumping to block his shot. At that time, Xu Nuo's head seemed to be They all hit the basket.And now, Xu Nuo's head is almost at the same level as the basket.Xu Nuo didn't choose to make a layup, but smashed the ball into the Magic's basket with one hand!
"Slam dunk?" Jameer Nelson, who was running towards the basket, opened his eyes wide in surprise, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

But the Indiana Pacers bench was full of joy.

"Dude, you dunked so beautifully!" Duntay Jones yelled towards the court.

"That's not true?" another point guard, AJ Price, yelled. "He can dunk, my God!"

But Xu Xu said nothing to himself, and ran straight back to his team's half.But he couldn't suppress his excitement in his heart. He didn't expect that he scored just after he came on the court, and it was such a beautiful dunk!The ball itself just wanted to layup, but I didn't expect the layup to become a dunk.

Coach Larry Brown standing on the sidelines looked at Xu Nuo and nodded slightly imperceptibly.

"There is a lot of potential to be tapped!" Coach Larry Brown said in his heart.

Of course he was talking about promises.

But at this time Jamil Nelson was already very angry.

I clearly passed this kid just now, how did he break the ball?Jameer Nelson was puzzled.

Being so humiliated by a rookie player who had just entered the field, Jameer Nelson felt very uncomfortable on his face, and made up his mind to teach this kid who didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth.Jamil Nelson used his body to lean against Xu Xu. He knew that his body was much stronger than Xu Nuo, and it was the best way to use his body to deal with Xu Nuo.However, Jameer Nelson was anxious to return the promise just now, but it was self-defeating.Jameer Nelson's forced breakthrough directly knocked Xu to the ground, and the whistle in the mouth of the referee on duty blew.

"I fouled?" Jameer Nelson looked at the referee on duty with a puzzled expression. He was already a famous player in the NBA, but the kid on the other side was just a rookie.But the referee on duty actually sentenced himself to a foul, which puzzled Jamil Nelson.

"Jamil, calm down!" Dwight Howard worried that the referee on duty would give Jamil Nelson a technical foul, and hurriedly said to Jamil Nelson, "This is just a preseason game."

Jameer Nelson stopped talking, ran back to his own half of the court, and prepared to defend.

Although the NBA will deliberately favor old players in terms of calling fouls, but Jameer Nelson's offensive foul just now was too obvious. It is estimated that the referee on duty has no way to favoritism if he wants to favoritism, so he had to give it to Jamil Nelson. An offensive foul by Nelson.Besides, this is just a preseason game, a small foul will not have much impact.

"Nice job, man!" Danny Granger said to Promise as he pulled him up from the floor.

Xu Nuo smiled faintly, received Roy Hibbert's serve and started to attack.

Xu Nuo did not dare to pass the ball directly to his teammates before halftime like Darren Collison did, but carefully dribbled the ball after halftime before handing the ball to Ronaldo who mentioned the high post support. Yi Hibbert himself came to ambush outside the three-point line, waiting to catch the ball and shoot an outside three-pointer.Roy Hibbert held the ball with his back to Dwight Howard on the right edge of the penalty area at a 45-degree angle. Brandon Rush from outside the line crossed each other, Brandon Rush came to the bottom corner, and Danny Granger came to the 45-degree corner.At this time, most of the Orlando Magic's defense was concentrated on Danny Granger, and Brandon Rush had a small space instead, and Roy Hibbert's pass came in time. Brandon Rush's hand, but Brandon Rush passed the ball to Danny Granger immediately after receiving the ball.Danny Granger catches the ball and leaps high, just when everyone thought Danny Granger was going to shoot, but Danny Granger made a large diversion of the ball, and the ball actually came to the other side of the court hands of the promise.It turned out that the Orlando Magic's defense was concentrated on the side with the ball at this time, but the promise was completely missed.But Jason Richardson immediately rushed towards Xu Nuo, Xu Nuo didn't panic, raised his hand and made a fake shot, and hit the ground while Jason Richardson jumped up to block himself The pass gave the ball to David West at the basket.At this time, it was too late for the Orlando Magic to defend again, and David West dunked easily.When returning to defense, David West patted Xu Nuo lightly, meaning "good pass", Xu Nuo smiled.

But Jameer Nelson was even more angry, because he was supposed to be responsible for the defense of the promise, but in this round he completely let go of the promise, which made Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy. Nelson was very dissatisfied.So, Jameer Nelson took all his anger out on his opponent Xu Nuo.In the next matchup, Jameer Nelson used his experience to beat Xu Nuo once. He not only cheated a foul from Xu Nuo, but also made a shot and added a free throw.

"The referee will not foul me again for this ball." Jamil Nelson looked at Xu Xu and said.

"Very good," Xu Nuo said without changing his expression, "I will double this ball back to you."

"What?" Jameer Nelson was really angry, he really couldn't stand a rookie player talking to him like this.But Jameer Nelson resisted the urge to make a move and walked to the free throw line angrily.

When a player is in an unstable mood, his shooting will also be unstable, so Jameer Nelson's extra free throw missed the basket.David West grabbed the backcourt rebound ahead of Dwight Howard and delivered it to Promise.Xu Nuo saw that Danny Granger had settled beyond the three-point line when he was fast-breaking with the dribble, so the ball in his hand was passed out immediately.This time, Danny Granger didn't miss again, and hit a solid outside three-pointer to extend the score to 16:12, and the Indiana Pacers led by four points.

Jamil Nelson lowered his head in frustration. He knew that he was once again at a disadvantage in the contest between promises.Now, Jameer Nelson knows in his heart that he can't underestimate this seemingly inconspicuous rookie player in front of him.

After Danny Granger hit that outside three-pointer, Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy got up and called a timeout. He couldn't stand his team being passively beaten like this. It was time for a change.
