My vision is different

Chapter 424
When the league game begins to enter the final decision, other teams have already begun to focus on rebuilding and strengthening next season.

Word of Gasol's decision to leave the Lakers has spread around the league.

Some people commented that when Gasol joined the Lakers, the latter's almost robbery-like operation finally achieved the Lakers' two consecutive championships.

The Lakers at that time had almost no shortcomings, and the entire league was afraid of the second generation of "OK".

So when Gasol appeared in Indian City and sat in the audience to watch the Pacers' home game, I don't know how many people started to worry.

After all, the Pacers at this time no longer have Hibbert's position, and this Eastern powerhouse urgently needs an inside line to make up for their shortcomings.

Maybe Gasol is not at his peak, but as a stable substitute, Gasol is definitely a more qualified striker than Mahinmi and even Hibbert.

As Gobert gradually evolves, with an experienced star like Gasol supporting him, everyone begins to worry about whether the Pacers will become a dynasty.

so.
"We never agree with Gasol joining the Pacers, this will make other teams have no fun!"

Thinking of the Pacers' rich bench, Paul George beginning to mature, and the best super rookie in history, everyone's scalp is numb.

On the contrary, the Spurs, who had just defeated the Thunder at home 122 to 105, were unmoved, and Popovich was at ease.

"Don't worry, it is impossible for the league to agree to such a deal. It is impossible for the Pacers to 'catch the leak'. Gasol will appear at the Pacers' home court as a friend at most."

Occupying the advantage of the home court, the Spurs were not afraid of their young opponents, and they won their opponents in the first game of the Western Conference Finals.

Ibaka's absence also forced the Thunder to resort to a super mini lineup, but it is precisely because of the huge disadvantage of lacking insiders that the Thunder was taken away by the opponent in the paint area, and Durant's offensive power on the outside could not be obtained. 100% play.

In this game, the Spurs played very easily. Even if the Thunder and Junior team scored 53 points, it would not help. The remaining three starters combined only contributed 5 points, and Collison, who replaced Ibaka, scored 0 points.

This is the brutal playoffs.

Lin Shaojie and other team members watched the game together with Frank and other members of the coaching staff.

The Spurs or Thunder are considering their opponents in the finals, and the Pacers are also considering their opponents in the finals.

At the end of the first game of this Western Conference Finals series, Lin Shaojie and Frank looked at each other and understood that their opponent after passing the Heat has been confirmed, and it is still the old opponent from last year-the Spurs.

It is impossible for the Thunder's lack of depth to pass the Spurs' hurdle. Durant's performance is against the sky, but it doesn't help. At most, he is the leader of the "empty cut group".

The Thunder's two fists are hard to beat with four hands, coupled with Leonard's outstanding performance on the defensive end, the Spurs' defensive strength on the outside is a group of strong ones. Their efforts made Durant struggle outside.

Westbrook also showed his rough side. He lacked a long-range shot to face the Spurs and wanted to break into it to win. This is a mature and sophisticated Spurs, which is too difficult.

The Spurs confirmed that their opponent in the finals is the Pacers, and the latter also confirmed that their opponent is the Spurs through this game.

The two sides almost know the bottom line, who is the ultimate hero, and after more than a week, they will be able to fight each other and fight each other.

The second game between the Pacers and the Heat started the next day. This time, Spoelstra did not dare to continue the lineup of the previous game. The old captain Haslem regained his standing in the playoffs at the age of 34. on the starting lineup.

Battier is sitting on the bench again at the age of 36. The super "3D" player can't resist the passing of time, and it is difficult to play the three-point ability.

Anyway, the Heat coach couldn't put Battier in the starting position this time. Even Ray Allen couldn't play his due effect in the short playing time, so Battier was naturally even worse.

As for the final deployment of the old captain Haslem, it is also because he has a better chemical reaction with Wade and others, and his mental attributes are stronger.

The Pacers have the same lineup as before. Without Hibbert, Gobert is a highly anticipated star player standing on the front line.

Of course, before the opening, Lin Shaojie could feel Gobert's flustered.

Don't look at having already experienced a start, but Gobert did not adapt to the enthusiastic atmosphere of the playoffs.

The basketball circle looks at the scenery, glamorous, and they are superstars at every turn, but in reality?

Ordinary players below the stars, those rookies, those players who have never had a good time, even Stephenson, have been married for many years.

The bottom ones are the "corpses" piled up by countless poor people, which are not fundamentally different from other industries.

The same is true for Gobert. The young Frenchman has not received the baptism of the playoffs. The shouts of 2 people are indeed a bit amazing.

In addition to the crucial Eastern Conference finals, Frank or Lin Shaojie's move, I don't know if it is suspected of "backlash".

Anyway, given the opportunity, Lin Shaojie is also willing to "assist" the young center, hoping that he can gain a foothold in the paint as soon as possible.

But purely in terms of strength, when facing the Heat, Gobert certainly cannot be compared with Hibbert.

The latter is now envious of Gobert besides envy.

After all, "Gao Yuanyuan" was able to climb to the top of the pyramid, and he climbed up step by step.

Now that Gobert is standing in front of his best opponent, the Heat, how can he not make Hibbert sad.

Hibbert is well aware of his role, whether it is a possible opponent in the finals in the future, or the insiders of the Eagles and Wizards before, he can't play any advantage.

But in the face of the Heat, he can burst out his strength one hundred and two times.

Hibbert can't say why. He is boring against other teams, but he is very effective against the Heat.

But the first game has already been played, he didn't even get a minute, and the agent has already started looking for a new home. How did Hibbert's status in the Pacers become what he is now.

Are the consequences of saying the wrong thing so serious?

Lin Shaojie did not consider Hibbert's mental journey, and a player who has been given up is no longer within his consideration.

At this time, he was whispering to the players, doing pre-match activities.

After the warm-up before the game, the players around Lin Shaojie, including Paul George, almost looked at Lin Shaojie with admiration.

In the last game against the Heat, Lin Shaojie almost scored a quadruple-double, with 33 points, 15 assists, 8 rebounds, 8 steals, and 3 blocks. He showed great strength on both offense and defense.

Although Lin Shaojie's playing time in the second half was reduced because of Frank's "hidden clumsiness", the data cannot be faked. The Pacers' boss is the boss, and the overall strength is too strong.

For Lin Shaojie, the eyes of his teammates and even the expectations of compliments, he has long been accustomed to it.

As a senior basketball practitioner, he has long been educated by Xie Zhenghe, and he knows that in this industry, don't listen to others' compliments, and listen carefully to others' scolding.

Especially when it comes to things like players' reputations, they must be handled with caution.

When you are popular, all you are surrounded by are friendly eyes. When you are not popular, and your strength declines, that kind of friendliness will become farther and farther away.

Danny Granger was so good back then, life is so difficult now.

I heard that the Clippers have already planned to clean up those "veterans", and the "Son of Yincheng", who has just joined the team, seems to be one of the targets of the cleanup.

Granger, who vowed to live like a human again when he left Indian City, has no ball to play now and is waiting to be cleared at any time.

When the news came back, I don't know how many people sighed.

For Lin Shaojie, a super core who can control the life and death of players, he respects him even more.

Hibbert, a player with an annual salary of more than [-] million yuan, said he would not let him play. Although there were reasons why the coach couldn't stand it, the cause of the matter was Lin Shaojie.

The blessing brought by power made Lin Shaojie's position in the Pacers flourish.

After the game started, Gobert was taken advantage of by Bosh again in the jump ball, and the long-necked "Dragon King" had better experience, and the Heat won the ball.

But Lin Shaojie immediately stood in front of Chalmers. The latter's intention to launch a fast break after getting the ball failed, and Chalmers handed over the basketball to Wade.

Not to mention, everyone in the Heat can attack with the ball. Although there is no way to break the Pacers' blockade, there is no problem with attacking with the ball.

The previous opponents of the Pacers, whether it was the Eagles or the Wizards, were crushed on the back line, and the resulting offense was not smooth, and the tactics were very obvious.

The Heat are much better at this.

Of course, in this game, the Pacers still want to repeat the same tricks, making Paul George's intention to block LeBron somewhat unsuccessful, at least not as successful as in the last game.

After the start of the game, LeBron took the initiative to retreat and play off the ball. The "sacrifice" of the "little emperor" brought the Heat a smooth offense. Paul George still couldn't do an airtight defense.

Faced with the Heat's changes, the Pacers can only respond with zone defense.

Lin Shaojie has put himself and his teammates in the strong position to play. The Heat can only use non-stop running and support, and even cut in the air to try to disrupt the Pacers' defense.

Wade broke through George Hill's defense, and when he saw LeBron running out of space, he quickly passed the ball. The latter immediately started to catch the ball, and Gobert facing the inside was a heavy dunk.

Although the French tower tried to take off as much as possible, but faced with a sudden move, his defense was not effective.

"The Heat take the lead!"

LeBron, who scored 2 points, did not dare to be proud, and quickly retreated.

"Serve!"

Lin Shaojie yelled, and Gobert, who was a little dull, quickly reacted and played the ball quickly.

He almost gave his opponent a dunk in the opening game, and Gobert felt that he was really unlucky.

Paul George patted his teammates apologetically. He was just a little bit slow just now, but LeBron ran out of the open space.

West did have a chance to make up the defense, but unfortunately, Bosh blocked the position, and the Pacers' defense did not work.

Fortunately, the Pacers' counterattack came faster. Lin Shaojie's quick breakthrough attracted the attention of Chalmers and Wade. LeBron and Paul George were close to hand-to-hand combat, but Lin Shaojie didn't seem to see it.

The moment Chalmers was thrown away by consecutive breakthroughs, Lin Shaojie shot directly at Wade, and "The Flash" pounced on him, and it was difficult to stop him.

"Shh!"

"Pretty!"

Lin Shaojie returned the opponent with a three-pointer. This shot was very decisive. If Wade made a bigger move, he might have given him a 3+1 chance.

"The ball is for Lin to guide, and it is the most reassuring to hand it over to him at critical moments."

Zhang Weiping seemed to be drinking a jug of old wine, and said contentedly.

The two sides played relatively easily after the opening. LeBron took the initiative to play off the ball, which was a good start for the Heat.

When the rotation came, Haslem was the first to be replaced. The "veteran" still had physical problems, and Ray Allen, who replaced him, had an obvious goal.

The Heat in the away game just want to use outside firepower to open up offensive space for LeBron and others.

It's a pity that the Pacers, who have a solid line of defense and focus on zone defense, are not fooled at all. The trio headed by Lin Shaojie firmly stands on the outside line, and George Hill and Paul George tightly surround Lin Shaojie to defend the line of defense.

Ray Allen's playing didn't work. Instead, it was because Lin Shaojie was able to use one defense against two, which made the Heat lose the advantage when Haslem was on the court.

The Heat lacked the supporter in front of the free throw line, and simply trying to rely on shooters to open up the offensive space did not work.

The Pacers scored a wave of 10 to 4, stabilizing the total point difference at around 12 points.

After the start of the second quarter, Ray Allen was replaced and Shane Battier came on, but after three or four rounds, the Heat coach knew that he had made an old problem, and Battier's appearance could not improve the Heat's performance. Defense, facing the impact of the Pacers, a player with average speed like Battier can't stop the opponent's offensive pace at all.

The Pacers don't rely on any experience to play at all, they are simply crushed by talent, especially Paul George, he can always receive Lin Shaojie's pass, and then go straight to the inside of the Heat.

The head-to-head combat style is almost the same as that of LeBron, and compared with the little emperor, Paul George's technical movements are more solid, and his aerial posture is more beautiful.

LeBron is somewhat similar to a simple bulldozer, and Paul George is undoubtedly much more beautiful.

What worries the Heat the most is that Lin Shaojie, in the midst of a mediocre offense, just made a few sudden shots. Not long after the start of the second quarter, his personal score came to 16 points.

With a hit rate of more than [-]%, ranking first in the game, the efficiency value once again exploded.

Spoelstra didn't know what to say. Except for the time when the Huaguo was in possession of the ball, the rest of the time was almost like walking in the courtyard. Even facing the double-teaming of Chalmers and Wade, it seemed With ease.

Compared with Paul George's "tough" style, he is a little weak, but the scoring efficiency is really astonishing. This is the Eastern Conference Finals. Isn't he flustered and in a hurry?
