My vision is different

Chapter 346 White House

The Pacers, who won 34 consecutive victories, seemed to have gone through a road of transformation. The tight string in the players' hearts instantly loosened. Everyone knew that even if they lost the next game, the lingering The pressure on the body is gone.

The game against the Raptors has become an indelible image in the fans' memory. Their laughter coupled with the beautiful colors sprinkled in the sky made people mistakenly think that this is the Pacers defending the championship.

The bitterness in the hearts of the Heat soldiers sitting in front of the TV watching all this is self-evident.

The record-breaking 34 consecutive victories successfully occupied the commanding heights of the winning streak list, overlooking all living beings. No matter who talks about the Pacers this season, this is an unavoidable topic. If they can finally successfully defend the title, then the Pacers will Break all previous laws.

For the Heat, the process of pursuing Bynum is a bit uncomfortable. The insider who has a problematic EQ but is highly anticipated in strength actually rejected the invitation of the great Heat and the great LeBron. "Black and soft" actually said something bluntly.

"You are not as good as the Pacers. They are the most competitive championship team. I want Lynn to pass me the ball. I can play a more dominant performance than that Hibbert;

What do you have?Am I expecting LeBron to pass me the ball?
I'm afraid of taking the pot!

Boss! "

There is nothing better than shrimp and pig heart, coupled with the Pacers' winning streak at this time.

Some members of the coaching staff did not say, but LeBron himself can guess, anyway, Bynum's will is very strong, the Heat want to get this insider, unless the Pacers explicitly refuse.

But if you think about LeBron in another way, you will know that even if it is to add trouble to them, the Pacers cannot refuse so quickly, they still need to hang the insider.

With Larry Bird's operation level, it will definitely make you want to die!

On the other hand, the Heat, although they also defeated the Raptors the day before yesterday and ushered in two consecutive victories, the victory between the Heat and the Pacers is getting bigger and bigger.

In contrast, if the Pacers beat the Heat, if it weren't for Paul George's indescribable performance, the point difference would be huge.

Look at the score between the Heat and the Raptors again, 102 to 97, with a difference of 5 points, the Heat's victory is narrow and dangerous.

It seems to maintain the 14-game winning streak against the Raptors, but for this game, Chalmers injured his Achilles tendon and missed the entire second half.

Even in the free throws at the last moment, as long as the Heat miss one, they may be overturned by the opponent. When DeRozan faced Wade and LeBron, he was fierce and scary.

Both Valanciunas and Patterson have caused great damage to the Heat's inside line. The Heat's lack of depth and height of the lineup are hidden dangers.

They have to keep going on the road of finding "good big men".

On the other hand, the Pacers can attract the attention of those players without saying a word, how enviable.

As for Kobe in the Eastern Conference, he is recovering from his injuries anyway, and the tone of the Lakers this season has been set, which is to go all out to fight for a few games less.

Yes, the wealthy Lakers have become the team that everyone in the East and West wants to meet. Gasol has become their only reliance on the inside. The collapse is on defense.

You don't know from which quarter the Lakers will collapse. No matter how D'Antoni and his coaching team direct and arrange, the Lakers collapse as soon as they say it, without the slightest hesitation.

Among the opponents who lost, they could even lose to a "underdog" like the Nuggets. Anyway, Brian Shaw, who was standing on the sidelines, smiled and said nothing. After all, they defeated the Lakers. Even if the opponent was very down, they still won. ,Is not it!

In Kobe's eyes, as long as the Lakers have fewer losing streaks this season, they are already lucky. If they can find him a player who has seen him before during the draft, then everything will be fine.

Look at the Pacers, not to mention a single defeat, and even broke the record of the Lakers. Kobe has not tasted the taste of victory for too long!

Those familiar and unfamiliar players all posted messages of blessing on Twitter, adding fuel to this winning streak. The NBA's uniform team is happy to see the fact that it is out of the circle.

Regardless of ambition, how you and the others deal with it, the facts have already been determined, so the only way to maximize the benefits, anyway, the Lakers are the ones who will suffer the most, and other people will feel much better than the Lakers.

Under this mentality of "you have a worse life than me, then I will be much more comfortable", other teams did not hesitate to send blessings to the Pacers.

Even Jerry West sent blessings to the Pacers, and the meaning is self-evident.

Back then you ignored me, but today I will backstab you fiercely.

The Pacers, who were playing at home, faced the challenge of the Eagles in back-to-back games on the second day.

Without Josh Smith's Eagles, the successor Millsap is not weak at all, but the salary is much cheaper.

The original eastern power faction, this season's Eagles only have a salary burden of just over [-] million. Although it is not the bottom in the league, it is also a team with high cost performance. If they can maintain their results, with such a team In terms of salary, the general manager of the Eagles is definitely a ruthless person.

However, the relationship between performance and salary is often directly proportional. A team with a high salary may not necessarily have a high winning rate, but a team with a high winning rate often has a high salary.

Especially when comparing the Pacers and the Eagles, the Eagles barely reached the level of the playoffs this season. It will take time for their integration after reconstruction to see the final effect.

The Eagles, who were able to cause huge damage to strong teams in previous years, have also experienced some ups and downs this season.

So in this game where everyone is optimistic about the Pacers, Indiana "Old Corn" almost stumbled.

In their game against the Eagles, the first three quarters were completely taken care of by the opponent's three-point rain. Stephenson, who played bravely in the last game, was in extremely poor form in this game and could only be pushed off the court by Frank in the end.

Instead, Paul George ushered in a game of recovery, scoring 28 points and 12 rebounds. However, facing the Hawks' main force and substitutes, the Pacers have been playing as a chaser. .

Entering the fourth quarter, the Pacers were already trailing by 22 points. Seeing Frank, who had no hope of winning, they even wanted Lin Shaojie and other main players to raise their hands and surrender.

After all, the Pacers have already got the grades and honors they deserved, and it's time to lose a game to take the burden off them.

Although the Eagles are not strong this season, they are also a "famous" team, and it is not ashamed to lose to them.

Unexpectedly, Lin Shaojie refused to surrender. He only scored 11 points in the first three quarters, but had 18 assists. It can be said that the Pacers' performance is not bad, but the Eagles are in better condition.

In the fourth quarter, Lin Shaojie, who played with a substitute player without Stephenson, became a ghost on the court.

Since the beginning of this season, the rare "walking the dog" attack has reappeared in the Conseco Arena. The entire Pacers team has only one task, which is to pass the damn ball to Lin Shaojie in the fourth quarter.

Faced with such a huge change, the Eagles were a little bit erroneous.

This set of tactics can be called a comprehensive production, referred to as "a few random builds," and there is no strategy at all.

The players only need to pass the basketball to Lin Shaojie, and then run around the court like a mad dog.

Lin Shaojie's nimble steps were once again demonstrated in the Conseco Arena, the way of scoring as soon as he catches the ball, and he must hit the shot, made the fans scream again and again.

From one-man close defense to double-teaming, and then to three-man blocking.

Lin Shaojie showed a player on the court, what is a super giant in the league, and what is a player with super first-line scoring efficiency.

In the game behind by 22 points, Lin Shaojie relied on three-pointers to chase points. The soul-stirring feeling made everyone feel the determination of No. 13 to win.

In the eyes of most people, it is time for the Hua people to relieve the pressure on the whole team. They have already completed the record of winning streak, so there is no need to fight like this.

But the host Yu and Li Dacheng sitting in the auditorium understand that these scenes will be included in the All-Star and even the New Year special. Lin Shaojie does not have a good gift for domestic fans. He uses a winning streak to let everyone have a good time. Years, I'm afraid it's the best thing he can do.

And things went as everyone expected. Lin Shaojie, who was like a lone hero, once again became the savior of the Pacers. He scored 22 points in a single quarter when he was 33 points behind.

He even made 10 of 10 three-pointers. With such an exaggerated shooting percentage, he led the team to a score of 33 to 9, reversed the Eagles, and successfully won.

With a score of 119 to 117, the Pacers' victory was narrow and narrow.

But the fans who have watched the game, especially the fans in the fourth quarter, always feel that there is a flame burning in their chests.

"Is that Chinese man crazy?"

This is everyone's first impression. After running wildly, he is like a bird that never stops. As long as he stops, it is when the basketball is shot and hit.

All he wanted to stop his footsteps was the referee's whistle.

When the reporters flocked after the game to interview the players from both sides, all eyes were on No. 13, and they praised him without any concealment.

"He is our boss and the most indispensable player. He can win or lose the game. As long as he is by his side, we can't lose the game, not even once."

"I thought we were going to win, we almost popped champagne at halftime because we were leading by almost [-] points in the first half, we were playing against the Pacers, we were almost going to be the other team Things that can't be done.

But the result disappointed us a lot. We still couldn't defeat the Pacers, and we couldn't defeat the Huaguo man. He is our nightmare, and it will keep us awake.

The only thing I'm thankful for right now is that we didn't pop champagne at half-time, or we'd be the butt of everyone else. "

In the post-match press conference, Lin Shaojie also looked a little tired, but with a smile on his face, he said that as long as he stands on the court, he will not give up the game unless he wins, even if there is no hope of winning.

At that time, No. 13's boy-like face showed the same determination as that obstinate man in Luo Village.

How could the fans not love such a player? Under Lin Shaojie's Twitter, the news about the game was frantically liked and commented on.

This is Lin Shaojie's rare 33 points in a single quarter, and a rare 100% shooting rate, which is too exaggerated, and the efficiency value once again crushed other players.

When watching the miniature clip of this section of the game after the game, you can almost scream for every shot he makes. The feeling that he must make a shot, coupled with Lin Shaojie's indifferent face, is almost the pinnacle of abstinence.

The feeling of "this killer is not too cold" gushes out!

In fact, it can be seen from the scores of the two sides that the Pacers are not bad, and Paul George is in good condition, but the opponent is better, that's all.

It was also after this game that many teams in the league reached a consensus.

When facing the Pacers, unless the No. 13 is off the field, a [-]-point lead is not safe. Just look at this game and you will know that this is a reminder for everyone.

But Lin Shaojie also knows that the team needs to release pressure and release. His "forced life extension" is not good, and it is even a wrong demonstration, which will cause wrong demonstrations for other players.

Sure enough, in the next away game, when the Pacers drove to Washington and faced the Wizards, Stephenson was injured by too much force on the court.

The poor performance in the last game made Stephenson feel that he was not working hard enough. He wanted to prove himself again, to prove that he was a player with an annual salary of tens of millions, not the current level of a young substitute with less than one million.

It is also strange to say that most of the time, the Hawks are stronger than the Wizards, but the Wizards, who have made almost no big moves this year, actually surpassed the Hawks in terms of winning percentage.

But for most players, they still have an established impression, just like a player like Stephenson, in his mind, it is estimated that the information has not been "updated" for a long time.

In his opinion, to play against a "weak" team like the Wizards, isn't it enough to have hands?

Therefore, in this game, Stephenson strongly requested to increase his playing time. Seeing this situation, Lin Shaojie felt at ease to rest.

When he faced the Eagles, he really used too much force. Although he has already recovered, he is still willing to sit on the sidelines, watch other people play, sit next to Frank, and chat with the coach about tactics and other related matters .

Whether it is learning or learning, sitting off the court and standing on the court are two completely different mentalities. Lin Shaojie does not refuse this "internship" opportunity.

Not only Frank, but also McMillan, members of the coaching staff are not stingy with Lin Shaojie's stealing behavior.

In the eyes of the old coaches, the studious Chinese is far more trustworthy than Kidd of the Nets after retiring. He will never mistakenly think that everyone has his own strength.

Anyway, there are not many successful coaches who are well-known stars!
Host Yu looked at the photos taken by Li Dacheng. If Lin Shaojie, who was sitting off the field, put on a suit, he would look like a coach.

Although the appearance is a bit too tall and straight, handsome, far more exaggerated than the "Magic Bird" in football, but seeing him wearing the No. 13 jersey and whispering to the coach and assistant coaches, everyone knows that the relationship between players and coaches is very different. generally.

Then think of Lin Shaojie and Larry Bird as close friends, the Pacers are up and down, at this time it is really Lin Shaojie's team alone.

It's no wonder that a supernova like Paul George, who entered the league earlier than Lin Shaojie and discovered his potential earlier, can feel at ease as Lin Shaojie's substitute.

Doesn't the picture in front of you say it all?

When a Chinese person has no language barrier and is willing to integrate into it, it seems that all the difficulties do not exist. Survival to life, the difference between one word and the world.

Now Lin Shaojie is in the Pacers, almost enjoying life, enjoying the game!

Stephenson, who got the chance, was full of joy. The "boss" gave his younger brother this chance. No. 13 sat on the sidelines after only playing for ten minutes, and now officially entered his performance time!

Stephenson, who played as a substitute, lived up to the expectations of Lin Shaojie and even the coach during the entire first half. The Pacers, who already have a psychological advantage, can be said to be handy against the Wizards.

In many years of battles, the Pacers have a psychological advantage with an absolute winning rate in the battle against the Wizards. They have not lost to their opponents at home since 07, even if it is only an away game now, but such a mentality The advantage remains.

A player like Stephenson, who is good at both offense and defense, did not give his opponent any chance to counterattack after Lin Shaojie was off the court. Instead, he used a more ferocious defense to make the Wizards lose completely when facing him.

Throughout the first half, the Wizards scored only 33 points.

In the second half, the perseverant Stephenson still wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue, but reality dealt him a heavy blow. When he made a quick advance, he sprained his ankle in the face of no one to defend him.

Suddenly fell down while dribbling and lost the possession of the ball. Frightened, Frank quickly called a timeout to replace him. Although Stephenson said that he can fight again, he has already scored 11 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists. As long as he persists , is another triple-double data.

Stephenson even thought secretly that he is definitely the "Westbrook" of the East.

But now, his body does not allow him to become Westbrook, he can only be himself, the best sixth man belonging to the Pacers.

Stephenson, who was unable to play, could only apply ice to his injured ankle on the sidelines, watching his teammates show off their prowess on the court.

Tomorrow, they will be summoned by the commander in the White House. The supreme honor inspires every player. Although the Pacers are not that kind of cold-blooded team, the performance of the Wizards against the Pacers is too great. Worse.

Although the Pacers players are a little overwhelmed, most people look forward to, at such a glorious moment, to welcome their glory with victory.

Even the Wizards of this season can be regarded as masters of chaos in the Eastern Conference; even if they have recruited a great physical master.

But such a team with strange physical abilities has a miraculous performance, that is, when the IQs of Wizards players are added together, there will be fewer and fewer situations.

The kind of players who were at the All-Star level for a second, but hit them and even made low-level mistakes, made this team have a status quo that didn't match their record.

Many fans like to watch their games, because they will have magical operations on the court, and they are the happy team from the league.

Now, the toughness of the Pacers has made it difficult for the Wizards to score.

It's true that Stephenson is a master of chaos, but he is just a substitute for the Pacers, and Lin Shaojie is the real boss, the outside gate.

The seemingly ferocious defense can arouse the Wizards' resistance, while Lin Shaojie's defense seems to be "moisturizing things silently," but he frequently completes counter-robbing, "killing" people without blood.

In the first half, they scored at least 33 points, and Lin Shaojie didn't put high pressure on them at the beginning!
But in the second half, after Stephenson was injured, Lin Shaojie felt that his performance should not be too bad. Even if he didn't score, he had to let his opponent feel the "care" from the Pacers.

Lin Shaojie's 10 steals and 5 blocks in the second half made the Wizards players look ashamed. They were all black and hard, and they were quiet like "quails" in front of No. 13.

This is what all fans can feel. Lin Shaojie, who is addicted to steals, is not as exaggerated as Stephenson, but the Wizards player who is called "steady, precise and ruthless" almost collapses.

"Don't come here!"

Coach Randy Whitman also wondered off the court, when did he or other players offend the Chinese?
Until the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Whitman never imagined that this old coach, who had a worrying winning percentage but was able to secure his position as the coach, really didn't know that he would get such a score at his home court.

105:60.

The 45-point difference became the best gift for the Pacers to go to the White House.
