NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 203 Coach, you don’t want to lose by 58 points!

"Go." Seeing Kemp's arrogant look, Bird also patted the shoulders of Lin Tian and Miller beside him and let them appear!

Joining them on the court were Christie and Ben, plus Davis, who continued to stay on the court without resting, forming the Pacers' on-court combination for the next period of time.

Davis, Big Ben, Lin Tian, ​​Christie.

If these four people are on the court at the same time, the Pacers' defense will be greatly improved!Although they can't compete defensively with those top defensive teams that have rich experience and complete systems over time, when these four people are together, the Pacers' defense is at least above the league's average!
By sending five people at this time, Bird's intention couldn't be more obvious, to give Kemp a fight!
After coming to the court, Kemp's free throw was also easily hit, and the gap between the two sides returned to 10 points.

After changing the lineup, the Pacers' inside line now has no offensive power at all. All their offense depends on the three muskets on the outside.

Fratello's reaction was also quick, and he shouted loudly from the sidelines: "Strengthen the pressure on the outside and increase the difficulty of their shots! The inside is always ready to help defend, and their inside has no offensive power!"

Lin Tian heard Fratello's shout clearly, and then he lowered his head and looked at Knight in front of him and said, "Why don't you listen to your coach's instructions?"

"What?" Knight didn't realize what Lin Tian was going to say.

"Didn't he ask you to increase the pressure on the perimeter and make my shots more difficult? Why are you so indifferent? I'm not a perimeter shooter?"

"FUXX!" Knight really had no other way to deal with Lin Tian except for swearing out these dry and empty curse words.

What can he do?Did he tell Lin Tian that he was already defending with all his strength?

Or should I go and criticize my head coach, saying that my height of 175 centimeters cannot compare to Lin Tian who is 191 in strength and speed? You want me to challenge him?

How about I die in front of you?
"Blevins, although we are not friends, you have to listen to what the coach says! He asks you to compete, and you have to compete, otherwise wouldn't I score? Look..."

As Lin Tian spoke, he suddenly blasted the ball with great force, followed by a hesitant step, and with a slight shake of his head, Lin Tian had deceived Knight again, flashed past him, and reached the inside. Against Kemp, he hit another pull-up layup!
"Work harder, Blevins, don't embarrass our No. [-] player!" Lin Tian continued to taunt his opponent after scoring.

He knows very well that among the entire Cavaliers, only Knight has organizational ability, and the rest are basically very pure finishing points.

If Knight can be made to lose his cool or be unable to handle the ball rationally, the Cavaliers' threat will be further reduced!

However, Knight is obviously completely different from the rest of the smaller players.

Among the other small men in the league, which one doesn't have a lofty ideal? I am the best in the world and want to defeat all the big men to prove that I am invincible?

Iverson, Marbury, Stoudemire, including the young Bogues, who are not so unruly that they don’t want to bow their heads when they see the emperor?
But not Knight.

He is a point guard who cannot be more traditional!

The way he responded to Lin Tian's trash talk was to dribble the ball into the frontcourt, then call on Kemp to cover him, and then use the pick-and-roll and the Pacers' defensive loopholes to score points.

If he were a little dirtier and crueler, he would look like Stockton again!
Playing against this kind of person is sometimes very boring. After all, you have slapped him in the face, but he can still continue to do what he should do like a normal person. When meeting this kind of person, Lin Tian was also a little helpless.

However, the helplessness was only at the level of trash talk. After Lin Tian spat a few words, he felt it was boring and decided to use another way to destroy Knight.

Aren't you calm?Aren't you sensible?
Let me tell you in my own way that being calm and rational on the court is useless!

For example, a few minutes later, Lin Tian took the ball to the basket and turned around forcefully. Then he faced Kemp, Big Z, and Knight, who were surrounding him from three sides. His body almost twisted into a twist in the air, and then he started from Big Z. He found a space under his arm and forced a layup and hit it!
Then the Cavaliers missed a shot. Lin Tian quickly advanced after receiving a pass from his teammate. In a 1-on-1 situation in the frontcourt, he suddenly stopped outside the 3-point line, picked up and threw!
"Boom!"

Although the 3-pointer was not scored, Lin Tian seemed to have been prepared. He turned around and bypassed Knight, not only grabbed the rebound, but also dribbled out of the 3-point line again and shot another 3-pointer!
"Shh!"

After another crisp sound, Lin Tian had already scored 10 points in this quarter, all of which were difficult goals that had nothing to do with rationality, reasonableness, and calmness!

After this 3-pointer, the point difference between the two sides reached 15 points again!
Fratello could only apply for a timeout again, and he had to adjust his tactics.

"Blevins, you continue to play pick-and-roll with Sean! The two of you must cooperate more, Big Z, you roam more in the mid-range and be ready to catch and shoot at any time. Sean, you have to be harder! Come out! You've blown away Barkley's momentum! You are our biggest advantage! I'm not worried about your organization at all, but Blevins, you must pay attention to defending Lin, he scores too many points, you You know? If Lin continues to fight like this, we won’t have any chance!"

"And you Wesley, you only shot 1 3-pointer today, too few! This will not help the team at all. You must be more determined and decisive! Shoot when you have the chance, don't be afraid of not scoring, we will Support you!"

After Fratello finished speaking, a group of Cavaliers players had different expressions, each one more exciting than the other.

Knight: I also want to guard Lin Tian. Do I have the ability?The guy who averaged fourth in the league in points per game during the regular season, was it someone I, a rookie, just wanted to guard against?

Person: I also want to shoot, and I also want to throw a few more, but do I have the final say?That Reggie of the Pacers, chasing me is like a dog chasing a rabbit, not giving him any space or chance, just chasing me to death!Close defense throughout.

what can I do?I learned my own running positions from watching Miller highlights. What can I do?Is it too late to look at some other players' movement highlights and techniques and change your own movement habits?

Big Z: I never thought I could meet a center whose style is so similar to mine. From physical fitness to height to playing style, I almost have the same template!I also want to score, but he knows what I want to do, what can I do?
In short, after Fratello's tactical deployment, although no one in the team said he was talking nonsense, no one really took his words to heart.

It’s not that I don’t listen, it’s that I really don’t know how to listen.

The situation on the Pacers' side is of course much better than here.

Bird was still confident and said: "They will definitely attack Kemp next, using pick-and-rolls and rolls to attack our defense, and hope to use this as the core to change our defense with attacks at a certain point. , and then lead others!”

"So, our next play is also very simple: curb their pick-and-roll and Kemp's scoring! Lin, this Knight can't shoot. His mid-to-long-range shots in every game are at the bottom of the league in terms of quantity and quality. He has almost no ability to score outside the 3-second zone!"

"So, next, the Cavaliers will have to play pick-and-roll cooperation between positions 1-4. Let go of that little man. Lin, you directly help Dell to help defend and double-team Kemp, so that he can't relax easily. Handle the ball, let alone attack!”

"Rick, Reggie, you two wait and watch your opponents on the court. The four of you have very similar playing styles. You must also know and be familiar with their style of play. Don't give them any opportunities to catch the ball and shoot directly. Opportunity, keep an eye on them!"

"Finally, Doug, you still have the job of roaming the court and assisting in defense. Whether it is blocking Knight's passing route or waiting for opportunities to assist defense, it all depends on your feelings and habits! I trust you! Okay. , everyone, go!”

After the arrangements by the coaches of both sides were over, the players took to the court again.

In the first offense, Knight dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and then quickly waved to Kemp to cover him.

But this time after the pick-and-roll, Knight was a little confused.

There is no one in front of him!
Lin Tian and Davis both rushed towards Kemp, one to prevent Kemp from passing down, and the other to block Kemp's line of receiving the ball!

At the same time, Knight quickly swept across the court and found that none of his teammates had room to catch and shoot. The only open space on the court was for him.

But he really can't shoot 3-pointers!

His 3-point shooting percentage this season…

0!

Played 80 games in the regular season, and was forced to shoot a total of 7 3-pointers, none of which were scored!

There is no essential difference between completely emptying Knight outside the 3-point line and emptying O'Neal in this area.

Knight was stunned for a moment. There was no breakthrough or pass. Just for this delay, Lin Tian was already back in front of him.

The pick-and-roll tactic in this round was a complete failure!

This time, Lin Tian's defensive position was further back than before. Lin Tian stood 2 meters away from Knight and looked at him and said: "Stop playing pick-and-roll Blevins, none of us will pay attention to you." .”

After listening to Lin Tian's words, Knight cursed, and then he reluctantly asked Camp to cover him again.

But Camp once again mentioned that he was confused after going online.

pick and roll?

Block what?
No one is guarding you, so why should I block you?
Block Lin Tian who is 2 meters away?What's the point?
Just like this, the Cavaliers' 24-second attack time was about to end. Knight had no choice at this moment. He gritted his teeth and forcibly pulled up from outside the 3-point line, scoring a 3-pointer. The ball was thrown.

Whether you can get in or not depends entirely on whether God gives you face!

And the moment Knight took off, Lin Tian had already lowered his head and ran towards the frontcourt!

Can Knight score this goal?

You haven't scored a 3-pointer all season. If you can score at the buzzer, I, Mr. Lin, will stand on my head and wash my hair!

"Oh!"

Sure enough, there was a muffled sound, and the basketball didn't even touch the basket. Instead, it hit the backboard next to the basket, and then fell directly into Davis' hands.

"Dale!" Christie quickly approached, shouted, got the basketball, then glanced at the front court and threw the basketball directly!
At this moment, no one from the Cavaliers has passed through the center circle, and Lin Tian has already reached the Cavaliers' 3-point line!
This ball is definitely another 2 points!
"boom!"

Two seconds later, Lin Tian, ​​who received Christie's pass, took the basketball and completed another gliding dunk, continuing to expand the score.

Fratello frowned tightly, he had a premonition that something was going to happen!
Sure enough, in the next few rounds, the Cavaliers couldn't hit the pick-and-roll at all!

The Pacers didn't care about Knight at all. After Lin Tian tested it a few times, he simply stopped looking at Knight and directly received the signal near the 3-second zone, medium and long distance, do whatever you like!
On the offensive end, the Cavaliers have become 4 on 5!

Who makes their point guard have no offensive ability at all when he leaves the 3-second zone?

No one can blame it!

As long as Vanette can have a 25% three-point shooting rate, Lin Tian will not just let him go, but now, Lin Tian said: If you want to face me face to face, at least one can be the first!
Knight took the ball and took two tentative steps forward. When he got to the free throw line, no one paid him any attention.

Then when he tried to take two steps forward, Lin Tian, ​​who was near the 3-second zone just now, rushed over: "That's too much, Blevins! Do you still want to just go to the basket and make a layup?"

Lin Tian's sudden appearance made Knight's idea of ​​trying his hand and shooting a free throw completely disappear. And now he stopped talking about shooting. Lin Tian's face suddenly appeared in front of him. This guy was scared to death. Not sure!
Lin Tian took advantage of the situation and took the basketball directly into Lin Tian's hand, and then quickly started another wave of offensive and defensive transitions!

After advancing all the way to the frontcourt, Lin Tian suddenly said: "Shooting is actually very simple! First you have to relax your whole body, then bend your knees, then lift the ball and jump to shoot! Remember, the first point is to relax, and then The left hand is just for assistance, and the right hand is gently moving, just like this!"

As Lin Tian said that, he jumped up from outside the 3-point line. Then with a shake of his right hand, the basketball flew to the hands of Christie who had already gone down to the free throw line. Christie took the ball and started directly, and once again completed the basket with one arm!

"Sorry, I'll teach you how to shoot next time. My teammate's position is so good that I can't help but want to pass the ball."

After landing, Lin Tian seemed to shrug his shoulders apologetically, but when his smile and apology were heard in Knight's ears, they were full of ridicule!

Then, Nate finally got on top!Faced with Lin Tian's complete lack of defense, he chose to break through at full speed for the first time, driving all the way to the basket unimpeded, trying to force a layup against Davis' defense.

"Snapped!"

But the reality is obviously cruel.

Davis is not good at protecting the rim, and he only averages about 1 block per game. He cannot be called a top rim protection expert at all. What he is good at is confrontation and ground combat!

But if he wasn't good at this, he still had to look at who was right.

Davis is powerless against guys like Iverson, Marbury, and Stoudemire, whose impact is terrifying, whose finishing ability at the basket is one of the best, and whose physical fitness is better than the last. .

But you, Nate, whose running and jumping abilities are mediocre?

Feel sorry!

Go home you!

The basketball was slapped near the free throw line by Davis. Lin Tian hugged the basketball again and launched another counterattack toward the front court!
This time, Miller and Christie kept up with each other, and the Pacers' most terrifying third-line fast break appeared again!

These young guys from the Cavaliers had no problem retreating quickly. Even Knight, who was hit by a blood cap, they were able to get four people back to the backcourt to prepare for defense immediately.

But the problem that young people tend to make is that they care too much about the ball holder, only focusing on the basketball, and retreating from other people.

For a passer of Lin Tian's caliber, the Cavaliers' retreat was a sight to behold, but the flaws were too numerous to count!

Opportunities are everywhere and openings are everywhere!
This time, Lin Tian chose Miller, whose baseline was emptied. The basketball missile flew towards Miller. Then as soon as Miller got the ball, he turned the basketball into a rocket and headed towards the basket. Just launched it.

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, the Pacers once again scored in the transition period between offense and defense!
What defensive system, what rotation, what reasonable play?
The Pacers never care about this!

Throw it when you have the chance, if you can throw it, that's the correct way to play!

After the Pacers hit a three-pointer this time, Fratello no longer dared to let Knight continue to play on the court, so he replaced third-year guard Bob Sura.

Although Sura has been marginalized by Fratello this year due to his style of play and injuries and has become the team's third point guard, at this point in the game, he doesn't have many options.

Sura's passing and organizational skills are indeed far inferior to Knight's, but at least he can attack!Sura averaged almost 10 points per game last season and was a good shot on the team's bench!
Even if this offensive ability is only compared to Knight, it is still the Cavaliers' best choice now. But less than 2 minutes after Sura came on the court, Fratello wanted to curse.

Not scolding Sura, but scolding myself.

He feels so stupid!

Knight's personal offensive ability is poor, so Lin Tian is completely undefended against him and lets him attack at will.But Sura can attack and shoot, Lin Tian will definitely not be so defensive!

Compared with Knight, who is less impulsive, Sura's fiery temper was too easily ignited. When he faced Lin Tian in the first round, Lin Tian laughed and asked him a question and he got fired.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

In one sentence, Sura decided that this bastard must be taught a lesson tonight!
Then he started dribbling solo!He wants to beat Lin Tian alone!
He kept dribbling the ball at the top of the arc and kept telling his teammates to pull away. Then Sura suddenly changed direction and wanted to forcefully rush past Lin Tian. But how can Lin Tian's defense be so easy to get over now?

He moved quickly laterally and used some small movements to stimulate Sura's nerves. Not only did Sura be unable to rush to the basket, but it also made him more and more angry!

Then, after Sula was forced to do nothing by Lin Tian, ​​he suddenly took a forced step back, and against Lin Tian's blocking and extremely aggressive defense, he threw a backward mid-range shot!

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, Sula hammered her chest excitedly: "Come on! Don't you want to prevent me from dying? Come on!"

"There's something wrong with you." Lin Tian rolled his eyes and said, "Don't stick to the three rules, man!"

Sula was stunned for a moment. The ball just now had a nice sound?
He couldn't help but look at the scoreboard again, and it seemed that there was indeed no increase.

No, how many points did the Cavaliers score before that shot?

"Wesley, did I really miss this goal?" Sura asked curiously as he looked at Person running past him quickly.

"You're in trouble! Get back on defense! Where's your Lin?" Person cursed angrily, then kept shouting and continued running toward the frontcourt.

Sura then discovered that Lin Tian was indeed missing, but it didn't matter whether he noticed it at this time, because Lin Tian had already rushed to the frontcourt again, and after compressing the Cavaliers' defense, he gave the ball to the follow-up. Davis scored and assisted the younger brother to score his first 2 points tonight!
Then for three consecutive rounds, Sura failed to pass the ball!Except for himself, only Big Z, who served the baseline ball, touched the ball three times. The rest of the Cavaliers didn't even touch the ball!

In 3 rounds, Sura attacked 3 times. Once he was intercepted by Lin Tian and Christie, once he was chased and intercepted by Lin Tian and Davis and directly blocked the block. The last time was even more outrageous. Lin Tian forced him from the 3-point line. Center circle, then made a mistake on the return.

In 4 consecutive rounds, 4 consecutive personal attacks, the result was not to mention scoring, not even touching the basket, but the backboard was touched once, but it was only with Lin Tian's big slap.

With the fight like this, Fratello couldn't bear it anymore even if he was Sura's biological father. He could only quickly replace Sura who still looked dissatisfied and was eager to try to fuck Lin Tian for two more rounds.

You rest!

Let’s rest until the end of this series!
But replacing Sura obviously couldn't help the Cavaliers catch up with the score.

In other words, in this situation, chasing the score is no longer realistic and meaningless. Relying on Sura's violent thrusts, the Cavaliers were only 1 minute away from the end of the second quarter. , has fallen behind to 29 points!
61: 32!

The Pacers almost led by 30 points and outscored the Cavaliers.

Absolute massacre!

But Fratello, as a very optimistic person, told himself in his heart: This is only a score difference of 20 points. If you catch up a little, it will be a few points, and there is still hope for the game!And this is not scoring or killing twice?There are still 10 points left!

This is 3 points!We must hold on, we must let the team members still have some hope in their hearts!
"Shh!"

Before Fratello could even finish his consolation, Christie shot from the wing and hit a 3-pointer!
64: 32!

Not only did the lead reach 32 points, but he also cleverly doubled the Cavaliers!

Although neither side scored again in the last few dozen seconds of the second quarter, and the point difference did not continue to widen, the suspense of this game was basically gone. With the Cavaliers' configuration, the point difference was 30 points, let alone facing a walk. Or, even if they face the Nuggets, they can't even think of catching up in half a game!
What's more, the point difference between the two teams is not just 30 points!As soon as the third quarter started, before the Cavaliers players finished drinking their chicken soup, Lin Tian led his team to smash their soup bowls. As soon as they came up, Lin Tian first assisted Miller and hit a 3-pointer, and then There was another alley-oop with Barkley, and then he made a strong breakthrough to the basket, attracting three double-teams, and then distributed the ball to Schmitz behind him, allowing the quietest guy in the starting lineup to complete a two-handed dunk!
Then, he and Christie worked together again, one blocked the ball and the other stole, cutting off Knight's dribble. Then Lin Tian faced the empty frontcourt during the fast break, just picked up and threw it, and hit a 3-pointer. !
"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, the Pacers launched a 2:10 offensive climax in less than 0 minutes, and the point difference between the two sides was widened to more than 40 points in one fell swoop!
The fight has reached this point, unless the two sides have some deep hatred that cannot be reconciled, such as the Heat and the Knicks who want to tear each other apart.

Otherwise, it’s almost done.

In the following game, not only did the Pacers players obviously relax, Bird also did not continue to direct the game, but allowed the game to develop. And halfway through the third quarter, he waved his hand and all the main players Rest!

Five ups and five downs, announcing that the game has entered garbage time!

The main players of the Cavaliers did not want to lose too badly. They played the entire third quarter on the court and successfully narrowed the point difference to 30 points.

In the fourth quarter of the following game, Bird originally wanted the main players to rest, but when he looked up, he found that Kemp and Knight were still there!

"You're shameless and skinless. Do you really want to reverse the situation?" Bird cursed and said, "Lin, go up and tell them to save some face!"

"How to tell? Directly or tactfully?" Lin Tian stood up and stretched.

"When have we Indians ever been gentle? Just come right here! Warn them in the most direct way!" Bird snorted coldly, indicating that I am not being vain.

"Okay." Lin Tian threw away the towel, then put his hands to his mouth, and across the technical stage and half the stadium, he suddenly yelled at the opposite bench: "Hey, the opposite one! What's your name? ? Westeros, right! Our coach wants you to have some shame when you step on the horse! Don’t be so shameless!"

"If you get the main force again, so will we. We'll beat you until your grandson runs away with his head in his arms and cries for his father! I'm warning you for the last time, I'll give you 40 seconds! If you don't replace all the main force in Westeros, we'll get in!"

"Hey, if you don't want to lose by 58 points, just play your main force!"

After Lin Tian finished speaking, he sat back in his chair, looked at Bird and said:
"How about it, straightforward enough?"

"Very direct! But..." The person who answered Lin Tian's question was Vitti: "Technical foul! If you stand up and yell again, I will kick you out!"

"You have to help me pay the fine for the technical foul! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have suffered this loss!" Lin Tian looked at Bird and said, "It's all your bad idea!"

"When did I ask you to shout like that! And you didn't even remember the name of their head coach!" Bird said dissatisfied: "His name is Latrice!"

"Here's Trunks! Why don't you call him Kakarot?"

"You two, that's enough, what nonsense are these names?" Buckley frowned and said, "My name is Traril!"

"Tralier is from the Sonics. He was suspended for a whole year this season because he punched the coach." Miller suddenly looked at Barkley and said, "Charles, are you threatening Larry?" ?I’m telling you, if you have something to say, please say it, but don’t do anything!”

"Although Larry is a stupid trash, dirty slug, thinks he is very smart, and always has an annoying smile, but he is the coach and general manager after all, and I think we should have some respect for him! Miller patted Buckley on the shoulder and said, "It's wrong to threaten people!"

"Who threatened him? I just want to know the name of the coach opposite!" Barkley looked aggrieved.

"Ask him yourself." Lin Tian, ​​Bird, Thomas, and Miller looked at Barkley and asked him to ask.

"Just ask! Does Lin dare me?" Barkley stood up with a snort, imitated Lin Tian's posture, put his hands together and shouted: "Coach opposite, what is your name? It's Trave. S, Trunks, Kakarot or what?"

"His name is Fratello! You guys can't even spell a syllable correctly?" It was Vitti who responded to Barkley's question: "Charles Barkley, technical foul! All of you! I mean you Everyone, please stay quiet!"

"Otherwise, I'll tell you all to get out of the stadium!"

Vitti cursed, turned and walked towards the technical stage. He swore that in his entire career, he had never seen a team that deserved a beating.

Queuing up for a technical foul on the bench?
What a bunch of psychos!

No matter how much Vitti complained in his heart, after playing less than 2 minutes in the fourth quarter, Fratello still honestly replaced several of his main players and officially surrendered.

After all... even though he didn't say a word just now, he could clearly hear what was being shouted from the other side.

Although he didn't know why he lost by 58 points, he felt that the opponent was more than just a threat.

Those crazy people can really do this!When it's time to give in, it's better to give in.

The final score of this game was fixed at 112:80.

The Pacers easily won a 32-point victory!

In this game, the Pacers' main players only played three quarters and did not appear in the fourth quarter.

Even though he only played 3 quarters, Lin Tian still scored a huge double-double with 33 points, 12 assists and 3 steals!His playoff debut with the Pacers was absolutely perfect.

巴克利靠着第二节前几分钟的连续7分也拿到了21分11个篮板的漂亮两双，再加上命中4个3分球拿到14分的米勒和表现全面供献13分5篮板4助攻3抢断的克里斯蒂，步行者队四大主力全部得分上双！

Compared with the wonderful performance of the Pacers' starting lineup, the performance of the Cavaliers players was much worse. Except for Kemp, who scored 24 points and 11 rebounds on 28 of 13 shots, which was considered a normal performance, the rest of the team They all performed more or less abnormally.

In particular, the two point guards Knight and Sura played so hard that no one could even watch the whole game.

奈特8投1中罚球2罚1中只拿到3分7助攻，同时还有4个失误，而苏拉更是在仅有的3分钟上场时间里，表现无比惊人，2投0中拿到0分0板0助攻2失误！

If it weren't for Surana's top undercover performance in four consecutive rounds, the Cavaliers wouldn't have lost so miserably in the first half.

The victory of this game made the entire Indiana cheer and confidence greatly increased. The excited fans even spontaneously launched a massive celebration parade that night.

This game doubled their confidence in winning the championship!

After all, the last time the Pacers won a single game by more than 30 points in the playoffs was back in the 70s!

And the Pacers of that era were not in the NBA!They are still fighting in the ABA league!

This can be called the biggest playoff victory in team history. Even if it only happened in the first round, it was enough to make all Indiana people excited!

And the Indiana people’s carnival obviously won’t end here!

Two days later, in the second game between the two sides at the City Square Arena, the Pacers continued their strength and ferocity!
Although the Cavaliers made obvious adjustments in this game, adding many new tactics and styles of play, and paying more attention to protecting their backcourt from being overwhelmed, the huge gap in player strength made their adjustments appear... It's all in vain, at best the loss is not that miserable.

In the first half of the game, the two sides could still fight back and forth. The Pacers only led the Cavaliers by 61 points 53:8.

Even in the first half of the third quarter, the Pacers only led by about 10 points, and the score never opened.

But in the last 4 minutes of the third quarter, the situation on the court suddenly changed!

Bird suddenly changed the lineup. He also removed two offensive insiders, Schmitz and Barkley, and replaced them with Ben and Davis. In addition, Lin Tian and Christie, two major defensive players, He went directly to the frontcourt and started a full-court pressing defense against the Cavaliers' backcourt combination!

Under the targeting of Lin Tian and Christie, the Cavaliers' shortcomings of lack of ball handlers and no one except Knight who could take on the task of organizing the team's offense were immediately exposed!

Knight's short body seemed so small in front of Lin Tian, ​​and his breakthrough and advancement were so difficult. Whenever Knight wanted to pass the ball or break through, Christie's ghostly figure and the league's top Their ability to predict will immediately make their passing routes full of crises!
And even if Knight goes through many tests and finally dribbles to the frontcourt, he will find two black and thick monsters standing inside the Pacers. As long as he dares to rush in, he will immediately He was twisted and twisted by the two strong men.

Even Kemp could do very little when faced with targeted double-teams from Big Ben and Davis. Facing the double-teams, his lack of passing ability and narrow field of vision were also fully exposed. , was also extremely embarrassed by Davis' top defense and Big Ben's help defense.

When the team's best passer and most offensive player encountered major difficulties, the other Cavaliers players were completely reduced to spectators.

The ball could hardly reach their hands, and they were really powerless to change the direction of the game.

From Bird's change of formation to the end of the third quarter, for a full 4 minutes, the Cavaliers were defended by the Pacers, a well-known defensive team, and only scored 4 points!
During this period, the Pacers relied on steals, rebounds, fast breaks and oppressive defense to continuously attack the basket and score 15 points!
After a 15:4 climax, the score difference between the two sides once again reached more than 20 points!
In the fourth quarter of the game, Fratello did not dare to let Kemp rest. After all, compared to the previous game, the point difference now was only half of the last time!

He really wanted to give it a try.

But at the beginning of the fourth quarter, what was waiting for the Cavaliers was Barkley, who had rested for half a quarter, was full of energy and wanted to vent!
For the Cavaliers at this time, Kemp played the entire third quarter, and was still entangled with two people. He was exhausted and had not yet recovered his strength. The center was Berta Pankow, a pure role player. The two people The inside combination meets Barkley, who is doing his best...

The most direct result is that Barkley turns into a beast, causing chaos in the Cavaliers' basket. Every time Barkley catches the ball, he can either score directly, grab an offensive rebound, or cause the Cavaliers to miss. foul!

He made several consecutive possessions under the basket!

After the score difference reached 25 points, Fratello had no choice. He could only let the players start double-teaming Barkley, but Barkley's vision and ball-distribution ability were not what a pure black hole player like Kemp could do. Than.Every time the Cavaliers came to double-team him, he successfully distributed the ball.

Even if it can't directly form an assist, it can still successfully mobilize the Cavaliers' defense, making them exhausted and then causing flaws.
