NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 261 The Eight Cavalry of Indiana! Lin Tian’s new style of play!

The team doctor walked to Bird's side, and Lin Tian and others also walked to the Pacers' bench with anxious faces, wanting to hear what the team doctor said about Carter's injury.

"He landed on his back when he landed, and he fell very hard! In addition, he was tired and strained due to too much playing time recently, so his back kept throbbing, which was a symptom of back spasm! Unless this game Give him a shot to seal it, otherwise he will definitely not be able to get the shot!"

"What the hell! Such a thing will never exist in my team, and I don't want to hear this word! Just tell me when he can come back!" Bird waved his hand impatiently. I really don’t have any patience now.

"As for when to come back..." The team doctor couldn't say anything anymore. He shook his head and said, "It depends on luck."

The word "luck" is not the team doctor's irresponsible nonsense.

But the injury of back spasm is indeed serious or minor.

95% of back spasms will only last about a week. As long as you relax your body, have a good rest, and supplement it with medication and massage, you can recover almost completely in 1-3 days.

But the disgusting thing about this thing is that it can easily cause repeated spasms in a short period of time! That is to say, after the first injury, if you rush back without recovering well and engage in high-intensity, long-term games and confrontations, you are very likely to relapse! And the symptoms of recurrence will most likely be worse than the first time.

Therefore, after experiencing back spasm injuries, what many players need to do most is not to hurry up and return from training, but to completely relax and recover!

Although this injury is not a serious injury, there are still a very small number of players who, due to reasons such as not paying attention to recovery, forcing a comeback, rushing to train, etc., have back spasms linked to their entire careers and cannot be cured! Then because of this injury, his competitive status declined rapidly and he retired.

Well, it’s Pacers head coach Larry Bird.

When he was young, Bird relied on his good health and didn't pay attention to recovery. He also thought that a few back pains were nothing, so he forced his old mother to have it repaired at home despite the pain and spasms in his back. There is a way out so that my mother can go out easily.

He did his best to show his filial piety, but the result was severe back spasms. Bird was tortured by this injury throughout the second half of his career and could never recover!

The final result is that in the last year of Bird's career, Bird could still provide beautiful statistics of 20 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists. He had All-Star level strength, but he could not bear the intense pain and non-stop pain in his back. I had to leave the NBA game early and chose to retire!

It can only be said that the black and white duo of the league in the 80s all had to retire early because they could not control their younger selves, resulting in some completely unnecessary injuries.

The magician can't control his lower body, and Bird can't control his pretentious heart!

Obviously, it only takes a few thousand dollars to let professionals build a beautiful trail, but he didn't!

The magician can obviously buy reliable protective equipment for only a few cents, but he doesn't!

It can only be said that the black and white heroes are indeed people from the same era, and they both like to save money!

In addition to Bird, players like Tracy McGrady, Ben Simmons, etc. also suffered serious back injuries, which caused their careers to take a sharp turn, almost falling off a cliff, and they never recovered. To the top.

Hmm... In addition to the serious back injury, Simmons may also have a serious brain problem. The reason why his career has taken a sharp turn is not only the back injury, but the brain injury is more serious.

But in short, although the final test results have not yet come out, Bird, a senior who is troubled by back injuries, has already made a decision for Carter in his heart.

Regardless of whether it's serious or not, Carter will be reimbursed for the season!

There is no need to risk your entire career just for such a wicked season!

If Carter returns in a hurry and the back spasm becomes an incurable disease like his own, Bird will probably feel extremely guilty for the rest of his life!

He knows better than anyone how awful it feels to be plagued by back spasms!

He wouldn't let Carter take any chances.

But don't let Carter risk it...

Bird looked at the eight remaining members of the Pacers and sighed helplessly.

If Carter is not allowed to take risks, he will have no choice but to fuck the remaining people to death!

Bird opened his mouth several times. He wanted to forget it and give up this season, but he couldn't say it in the end.

Lin Tian patted Bird on the shoulder, looked at the rest of the team and said: "We are not in despair yet! We are leading the game now, and we are also leading the series! The rhythm and initiative of the game are both It’s in our hands!”

"Guys, let's fight this game first! Again, if our guys can come back, we can't let them play without the ball!"

"Unless they're all out for the season, we have to keep fighting for our guys!"

"We have fewer people, but after this time, we will gain the respect of the entire league! We will not give up, we will not fail! We will still give everything we have to fight the Heat!"

"Think about it, 30 years later, when you are lying in the rocking chair to enjoy the cool air, what glorious past events do you want to tell your grandchildren? Is it to tell them that you once surrendered in a series and no longer resisted? , or tell them you once defeated the Miami Heat with only eight men available?"

Lin Tian paused at this point, then stretched out his hand and said: "Walker!"

"champion!"

Everyone else also stretched out their hands and roared together with Lin Tian!

The Pacers are at it again!

Maybe it was because he sympathized with the Pacers' unfortunate situation, or maybe he was embarrassed to call the Pacers another technical foul. In short, Lin Tian's act of kicking the basketball just now was not punished by the referee. The referee did not give Lin Tian a penalty. A T.

In the next attack, the Heat once again gave the ball to Mashburn, but this time when Mashburn pushed inside again, he was surprised to find that Christie's defense was harder than before!

Christie, who was originally skilled but not very strong, successfully withstood Mashburn. Then, while Mashburn was distracted, Christie suddenly made a move to steal the ball and slapped the ball into Hoiberg's hand. When Hoiberg got the ball, he immediately lowered his head and pushed forward quickly!

No matter who it is, it is very clear that if the Pacers want to win tonight, they must bring up the rhythm and speed!

After fighting all the way to the three-point line, Hoiberg suddenly stopped, and then immediately found Lin Tian who had already run to the top of the key and beyond the three-point line, and passed the ball directly. After Lin Tian got the basketball, he took advantage of the situation. He turned around and left Hardaway behind. Then he started suddenly and rushed toward the basket!

The Heat players retreated quickly. They wanted to guard the basket to prevent Lin Tian from hitting the basket, but Lin Tian suddenly stopped outside the 3-second zone, then picked up and threw!

"Shh!"

After hitting a chasing close-range jumper, the Pacers' lead expanded again!

"Oh oh oh! Didn't give up! I knew the Pacers wouldn't just give up!" Barkley shouted excitedly: "They are still defending desperately! They can still attack quickly! The Pacers, Be fearless! What if there are 7 people missing? What if there are only 8 people left? The Pacers will not be afraid!"

Su Qun from China Sports Station said: "No matter what the result of this game is, I think I will put it on my favorite game list and recommend it to everyone who has just started playing basketball! Don't give up. ! Never give up! Always try your best!"

"Sometimes, there are really things more important than winning or losing on the basketball court!"

On the court, the battle between the two sides continued.

The Pacers have also maintained their slight lead over the Heat.

And until the last 2 minutes of the game, the Pacers still had a 3-point lead!

Then, at this time, the Pacers once again had a problem.

Christie, who played the entire first 46 minutes and constantly fought against Mashburn, Mourning and others, suddenly fell to the floor while running. Fortunately, he called a timeout in time when he fell, which prevented him from letting go. The ball is lost.

The team doctor quickly stepped forward to check, then turned back and waved to the rest of the team.

"It's okay, it's just a cramp! It's okay!"

After hearing this, the entire Pacers team breathed a sigh of relief. If Christie is missing, then it is no longer a question of how they will play next. They even need the minimum number of registered players for each game required by the NBA to reach 8 This is not enough for me at all.

The team doctor quickly helped Christie stretch his legs and massage them to relieve his cramp symptoms.

"Can we fight?" Bird looked at Christie worriedly.

"No problem. Just now, the movement was a bit big. It's not in the way. I will be more careful next time." Christie nodded, indicating that he was not in the way.

"Next, try not to participate in fast breaks. After you get the ball, leave it to Lin to handle the advancement and offense." Bird patted Christie on the shoulder. To be honest, if he had a choice, Bird would Germany really wants to replace Christie.

But looking at the people on the bench, he was really worried.

Leading by 2 points in the last 3 minutes, Bird really didn't want to give up this victory!

On the other side, Riley clapped his hands and said: "Their physical strength has reached the limit! They can't hold it anymore! Hit me inside! Jamal, keep hitting that Christie hard! Consume him and beat him down!" Alonzo, that Davis must have no strength! I want you to work harder on offensive rebounds!"

"Use offensive rebounds to slow down their fast break momentum!"

"Come on, win this victory! Let's go back to Miami and have a party!" After Riley finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and cheered everyone again, and the Heat players were ready to walk towards the court.

For them, the intensity of tonight's game was really much greater than they imagined. They really didn't expect that the Pacers could still suppress them in this situation!

What if they had one more person? Is it impossible for us to stop it?

This thought emerged uncontrollably in the minds of everyone on the Heat team.

Soon, the timeout ended and the five Pacers walked onto the court again.

Three of them haven't rested for one second tonight: Lin Tian, ​​Christie and Davis.

Christie's cramp was definitely not an accident. It was caused by playing for too long and reaching a bottleneck in physical strength.

Christie's physical strength has been exhausted, so of course others will not be much better. By now, everyone on the Pacers court is exhausted!

They may have cramps or other conditions at any time.

Bird's current task is no longer even coaching the team. His most important task now is to pray.

Pray no one else gets hurt.

In the last 2 minutes, the battle continues!

The Pacers' offense once again went to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian was sweating profusely now, and his physical strength had reached a bottleneck!

Even this is Lin Tian. If it were another person, Lin Tian's style of play tonight, in which both offense and defense are fully utilized, facing double teams at any time and anywhere, and constantly attacking crazily, without even taking a break, would have happened. My son had already fallen down from exhaustion.

The last 2 minutes must be extremely long.

At this time, the Heat once again chose to double-team Lin Tian!

The rest of the Pacers' physical strength is almost at its limit. The Heat believe that at this time of the game, the only person who is still a threat to them is Lin Tian! Leonard and Hardaway rushed to Lin Tian immediately, standing on both sides of Lin Tian.

Facing a double team, Lin Tian once again suddenly accelerated and made a forceful impact!

The direction he chose was still towards Hardaway, who was thoroughly fucked by him again tonight.

Poor Hardaway, who was once known as the fastest man in the league, is now being chased and beaten by Lin Tian!

Lin Tian knew that he had insufficient physical strength now and had to use it as sparingly as possible. At the same time, he thought of the most energy-saving way of playing!

A genre that Lin Tian despises, but must be brought out now.

This time, Lin Tian just dribbled the ball and took two steps toward the three-point line before suddenly stopping. Then he suddenly raised his hand and shook it. Hardaway, who had been beaten and was very nervous, immediately jumped up after him. .

And then, of course, he was fooled again!

Lin Tian leaned toward Hardaway, then waved his hands casually toward the sky, and the referee's whistle sounded again!

Lin Tian didn't want to score this goal. Now he really has no energy to control his body, then aim at the basket, and then come up with a 2+1.

When Lin Tian did this in the past, he was rushing for an extra penalty.

But now that Lin Tian is doing this, his goal is those two free throws!

Touch porcelain flow!

Lin Tian has to stand on the free throw line again and again to pause time, recover as much as possible, and at the same time keep the team's score growing.

He kept adjusting his breathing on the free throw line, trying to use up the 15 seconds of free throw time as much as possible, allowing himself and his teammates to rest on the court for a few more seconds, and then Lin Tiancai raised his hand and made the free throw.

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

Lin Tian hit two consecutive free throws, and he also tried his best to use up the 15 seconds of free throw time. This was equivalent to gaining about 3-40 seconds for his teammates and himself to rest on the court.

87: 92!

The gap between the two sides has reached 5 points!

In the Heat's offense, they once again hit the ball inside. Although Perkins only played 39 minutes tonight, considering his age, he is already very powerful without cramps yet!

As for expecting him to defend against Mourning's strong attack?

That is really difficult!

Mourning also knew very well that the old man opposite him was completely out of breath, and basically could only open his hands to interfere with his own shooting, so he easily exerted force, turned around and laid the basket, scoring 2 points for the team!

Although the Heat are lagging behind, they are really not in a hurry now!

Because the Pacers are completely defenseless and unstoppable.

Except for Lin Tian who can still play a little advantage on the offensive end, the other four people are now on the verge of physical collapse!

In fact, it's not that Bird was conservative with his personnel. Bohannon, Pope and Lewis on the bench all got playing time tonight.

But their performance can really only be described as a disaster!

Not to mention that they are completely unable to match the intensity of the Heat. Once the Heat see these three guys on the court, they will immediately feel as if they have taken aphrodisiacs and fight to death!

The Heat know very well which people are easy to bully and which people are hard to deal with!

As long as the three of them come on the court, they will immediately become a breakthrough point for the Heat and beat them hard!

Therefore, Bird would rather let the exhausted main players persist for another 2 minutes than let those three guys go on the court and get beaten again.

The Pacers' offense did not forcefully push the ball this time. Lin Tian slowed down the pace and let his teammates go to the frontcourt first, and then he slowly dribbled the ball over.

These times are precious rest time for the Pacers on the court!

After coming to the frontcourt, Lin Tian once again faced the double-team of Hardaway and Mashburn!

This time, Lin Tian did not hit hard, but called two screens in a row, allowing Davis and Perkins to come out from the inside and give him a high double screen at the top of the key!

Then Lin Tian took advantage of the four people at the top of the arc who were entangled in a ball, suddenly accelerated, passed through the crowd, and once again reached the vast area in the middle distance!

Barkley said in disbelief: "Lin's physical strength is too scary! After outputting full power on both ends of the offense and defense for so long, with one person supporting the team's system and being almost double-teamed by the Heat, Can Lin still explode with such speed at this time?"

"It's hard to understand!" Kenny shook his head and said, "Just looking at Lin, I felt like he might fall on the court at any time, but he just held on! He was able to punish the Heat again and again! At the same time, I have to say something , Lin didn’t just attack and not defend tonight!”

"Hardaway, who is facing him, has made 8 of 0 shots so far and still hasn't scored a point! This is Hardaway's second consecutive game where he has failed! You know, Hardaway averaged 1 points per game in the regular season. Points! In the first round of the playoffs, he averaged 17 points and 20 assists per game, and was an important contributor to the team's victory over the Pistons!"

"But now, he is faced with the dilemma of failing to score for two consecutive games! Lin's mental and willpower is really terrible! Alas, but Lin's ball is too obvious! He no longer has the energy to protect the ball. What?" Kenny's question was because when Lin Tian broke through, he suddenly straightened his hands and completely exposed the ball to everyone! This is a very low-level breakthrough method. Even junior high school students, as long as they have taken two basketball classes, they will know that when going for a layup, they must put the ball in their arms and protect it.

Otherwise, it will be cut off by your opponent!

But at this time, Lin Tian completely exposed the ball!

Brown, who came to defend from the opposite side, did not resist the temptation, cut the ball directly, and slapped the basketball in Lin Tian's hand!

But the moment he made his move, Lin Tian's hands suddenly moved a little bit. So, Brown didn't hit the basketball, but directly hit Lin Tian's hand!

Lin Tian screamed, and then made a very exaggerated shooting action, so that the ball would become a shooting foul instead of a normal foul.

The referee was very considerate. This was an obvious foul and it was the home court of the Pacers. They immediately blew the whistle and gave Lin Tian two free throws.

After this breakthrough, Lin Tian was already so tired that he couldn't breathe.

He really reached his limit.

Even if he uses a very thief and energy-saving touching style, which allows Lin Tian to avoid physical contact and physical exertion when taking action, Lin Tian still needs to use a huge force to break through. Willpower to complete the acceleration.

After high-fiving his teammates, the entire Pacers team didn't say much. They stood silently in their positions, while Lin Tian stood on the free throw line.

"Sam, Dell, there's no need to grab rebounds. Go back and prepare to defend in our own half. I can make the free throw." Before the free throw, Lin Tian waved his hand and drove Davis and Perkins away, letting them Back into their own half so they can get a few extra seconds of rest.

Also, if the Heat counterattack quickly, they don't have to run back to defend at all costs!

After raising his hand and making two free throws, the difference between the two sides was still 2 points!

Next, the Heat gave the ball to Mashburn, and Mashburn once again beat Christie in the low post. This time, he not only scored the ball, but also caused a foul by Christie, making the score 2+1!

"Shh!"

Mashburn did not disappoint his teammates and successfully scored 2+1, bringing the score to 2 points!

There are only 50 seconds left in the game!

It's still Lin Tian!

This time, Hardaway began to harass Lin Tian from the backcourt to consume his physical and energy. Mashburn was waiting not far away to prevent Lin Tian from suddenly accelerating past Hardaway.

But at this moment, Lin Tian has obviously lost the strength to run all out from the backcourt. He must save his energy for use!

After all the confrontation and slow advancement, when Lin Tian came outside the 3-point line, there was less than 12 seconds left in the attack time!

Then, Lin Tian was still pressing for time, lowering his focus, waiting for the opportunity.

With only 6 seconds left in the attack time, Lin Tian finally started!

Hardaway's nerves are extremely sensitive. One of his hands has been inserted between Lin Tian's hands, and he is almost dragging Lin Tian's jersey to defend!

At this time, Lin Tian did not break through, but suddenly rose from the ground!

At the same time, Lin Tian's ball-handler hit Hardaway's hand holding his jersey hard!

"Pop!" There was a crisp sound that everyone could hear!

Lin Tian almost stood up from the ground hanging on Hardaway's arm, and then forcibly threw the ball out!

Of course, this goal is impossible to score. Lin Tian no longer has the strength to hit a 3-pointer even though someone is hanging on him, but he has already gotten what he wants!

"Dudu! The thug fouled! Three free throws!" The referee quickly gave the penalty!

This ball is also very obvious. Everyone can see it. Hardaway pressed Lin Tian's arm, preventing him from taking off to complete the shot!

Hardaway held his head in disbelief and jumped up on the spot: "I didn't! I didn't hit him, he hit my arm! I didn't!"

Yes or no, subjective or objective.

Obviously not important.

What the fans and referees saw was Hardaway hanging on Lin Tian's arm, hindering his shooting.

Lin Tian once again stood on the free throw line.

At the same time, this foul was Hardaway's sixth foul. He left the court dejectedly with 6 points, 0 assists and 7 turnovers.

"Coach, I really didn't want to touch him!" While sitting off the court, Hardaway was still spreading his hands in protest!

He didn't understand why he committed a foul?

He was right not to understand.

Lin Tian's 'big swing' move will be used by many stars in the league 20 years later. It is shamelessly simple and easy to use. At the same time, it is at least two versions ahead of the current league. Only Hardaway can understand it. ghost!

I just don’t know if Lin Tian’s actions will cause the ‘free throw kings’ and ‘rules masters’ to come to this league early and start a completely different style of play?

Well, this thing, at least now, is not important at all. What is important is that Lin Tian made three consecutive free throws and once again hit them all!

He has scored 7 consecutive points by relying on free throws!

The score difference between the two sides is still 5 points!

There are only 30 seconds left in the game! Now it's the Heat's turn to be anxious!

They originally thought that the Pacers had reached their limit and their physical strength had completely collapsed. As long as they continued to play inside, they would definitely be able to catch up with the score quickly.

Well, they did manage to continue playing inside and make one shot after another with ease.

But the Heat never imagined that Lin Tian could suddenly play like this at this time, stand on the free throw line 7 times in a row and hit all of them!

All their calculations became like a joke because of Lin Tian's strength!

This time the offense was once again handed over to Mourning!

After Mourning faced Perkins in the low post, he jumped up again to complete the shot!

But this time, after being bullied by him for a whole game, Perkins, who had almost no power to fight back, suddenly stood up!

"I got you! I'll go to hell!" Perkins roared and slapped the ball Mourning had just thrown, and the basketball flew towards the three-point line.

As the most physically fit person on the Pacers team, Hoiberg rushed towards the basketball regardless of the situation!

Seeing that the basketball was about to go out of bounds, this guy jumped forward and slid on the floor for a full 3 meters before grabbing the basketball. Then he found Lin Tian and passed the ball before the Heat came up.

After catching the ball, Lin Tian once again burst out with incredible speed and power! He accelerated suddenly and got rid of everyone's defense on the Heat team in the blink of an eye! He reached the frontcourt at a speed that is incomprehensible to ordinary people, and then completed a dunk!

This is his first dunk tonight!

It was also his 55th point tonight!

After Lin Tian's dunk, there was less than 15 seconds left in the game. The 7-point lead was enough for the Pacers to celebrate in advance!

The Pacers almost relied on only 5 and a half people to survive this game and protect their home court!

Off the court, a livid-faced Riley called a timeout and arranged a quick three-point tactic.

But he also knows very well that this pause is just to do his best!

15 seconds, 7 points, with the Pacers' free throw shooting rate, there is no way to catch up!

Especially, the Pacers still have 2 timeouts on hand!

To complete the reversal in this situation, a super miracle must come!

As the timeout ended, Leonard's 3-pointer bounced out of the frame. After Davis hugged the backboard and was sent to the free throw line by Brown, the game was officially over.

A miracle did not happen, or in other words, tonight's entire game was a miracle for the Pacers!

Davis' two free throws were no longer important. After Mourning got the rebound, he did not attack again. Instead, he patted the ball twice. When the game time was over, he put the ball on the floor and walked away. He went over and patted Davis on the shoulder and said, "You played really well. I admire you."

Then, Mourning turned around and left the court!

92: 99!

The Pacers won this game with great difficulty!

The moment the final whistle sounded, the fans fell into a sea of ​​madness and celebration!

They won! They won the game!

The hero of his own team, in a desperate situation, with a large number of players on the team missing due to injuries, withstood the Heat's counterattack and won the game!

Those fans who are more emotional are even wiping tears!

In sharp contrast to the crazy cheering and excitement of the fans, are the Pacers players!

Lin Tian, ​​Christie, Hoiberg, Perkins, and Davis, these five people collapsed on the floor the moment the whistle sounded at the end of the game!

Five people, five big men, lay in five places on the court.

There was no image, just lying on the floor!

They are really tired, they spent everything tonight!

Bird stood up in the audience and applauded his disciples from the bottom of his heart. Bird's eyes even turned a little red.

这场比赛，太让他骄傲了，不仅仅是林天的48分钟爆砍55分12助攻16篮板5抢断的数据让他骄傲！

Everyone on the Pacers team makes him proud!

打满48分钟，拿下16分4篮板3助攻的克里斯蒂和拿下5分17个篮板的戴维斯。

He also played 40 minutes, and at the age of 38, he scored 4 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, which also included a very crucial veteran who blocked shots that directly sealed the victory for the team, Sam Perkins!

Of course, there is also Carter, who left the game due to injury after playing 23 minutes and scored 12 points.

Hoiberg played 25 minutes and scored 7 points.

Of course, there are also Pope, Lewis and Bohannon who played a total of 8 minutes but did not score a single point. They only contributed a total of 1 rebounds and 3 assist!

The Pacers in this game really tried their best and gave everything they had.

They defended their home court and the hope of continuing this series.

They have the home court advantage and holding on to their home court means the series is not over yet!

After the game, Bird took Lewis and Pope to the post-game press conference. He looked at the reporters and said: "I know you would rather interview Lin, Doug or Sam, but they are really... If they are tired, let them rest and I can answer your questions."

It is very rare that the response to Bird was not muttering dissatisfaction and protests, but heartfelt applause from the reporters.

In this game, the Pacers really completely conquered them. They won the game in such a desperate situation. They just didn't want to attend the press conference. What's wrong? correct!

Have a good rest!

"The total number of injured has reached 7! Only 8 Pacers can play! 》

"Another 55-point triple-double!" Lin Tian played the entire game to keep his team's promotion hopes alive! 》

"Three players played the entire game, and one person retired injured in half the game. How much energy do the Pacers still have in a desperate situation? 》

"True Leader!" Lin scored 9 points in a row in the last two minutes, and Lin won the victory for the team on his own! 》

"The 38-year-old veteran delivers a shocking blood cap!" Perkins yelled that I am not old yet! 》

"Mourning's 34 points, 20 rebounds and 5 blocks were difficult to save. What the Heat lost was not their ability but their mental will!" 》

"Hardaway failed in two consecutive games. Was he a 'Beetle' in the past and now a dung beetle?" 》

"The Pacers regain hope after defending their home court!" Can they get back injured players when they return to Indiana for Game 5? 》

"It's all unconfronted and unexpected injuries!" The Pacers seem to be cursed! 》

"Two people have confirmed that they will be retired for the season, and one person has entered daily observation. Let's break down who among the Pacers' 1 major injuries is most likely to come back! 》

"Scored 55 points and scored 9 points in a row to complete the game! Who didn't vote for Lin Tian for MVP? 》

"After Lin Tian's battle, no one in the league is worthy of being compared to him! 》

"How Far Can the Indiana Miracle Go?" Can they win another victory in Miami? 》

"The team needs you to do more!" If Lewis and Pope can perform strongly, the Pacers may be able to sweep the Heat! 》

"The terrifying mental attributes! The Pacers have won it all! 》

……

Almost all the media in the United States gave the Pacers the highest and best evaluation after this game. They all praised the Pacers' energy in desperate situations and called them the new generation of American idols. .

After such a game, the Pacers have completely turned the Heat into villains. Now everyone is looking forward to the Pacers relying on this momentum to defeat the Heat all the way and advance to the Eastern Conference finals!

Of course, Bird will let his players watch these praises and encouragements from the outside world. He hopes that they can maintain their resilience and strength and continue to prepare for the games after the series.

There was a three-day and two-night break between the second and third games. The Pacers arrived in Miami early the next morning, and they didn't leave the hotel for the next two days!

Bird canceled all the team's training, and he also temporarily recruited several top physical therapists and masseurs in Miami. In the past few days, all the team's players were recovering in the hotel to find their feeling.

At the same time, Bird also needs to think about it and make some trade-offs.

That is whether to take the risk and let the players play another game with this energy and fight for victory, or to simply give up these two away games and let the players have a good rest, and then return to the home court and fight with all their strength. The Heat, how about a showdown with them?

In addition to Bird being entangled, Lin Tian was also entangled for two days.

Lin Tian was very hesitant about whether to use that Jordan experience card.

Lin Tian had a good chat with the team's medical team and asked about the status of their injured players. Among these people, except for Carter and Harrington, there is a possibility that they could play before the Eastern Conference finals or even in this series. In addition to returning in the last two games of the game, the rest of the players are likely to be reimbursed for the season ahead of schedule.

The remaining time of the season is simply not enough for them to recover from their injuries, return to form, find a feeling for the game, and then play and contribute.

Time is running out, it’s too late!

But except for Harrington, who is no different between coming back and not coming back, if only Carter comes back, with the Pacers' current lineup, even if they pass the Heat, what's next?

With the Pacers' current lineup, can they win against the Knicks led by Jordan and Ewing? Is there any hope against the Spurs Twin Towers or the Lakers' OK combination?

Just relying on a few main players of the team and using 6-man rotation to play for 48 minutes every game, can they withstand it?

Even if Lin Tian can bear it on his own, he has a chance to be exempted from injury and can risk gaining weight to increase his physical strength several times, but what about his teammates?

Christie suffered from cramps in the last game, and Perkins struggled so hard that he could hardly walk. Can they persist in the next game?

After all, human mental strength has its limits! Their physical strength will eventually be completely exhausted, and they will be completely unable to fight, unable to keep up with their opponents.

Lin Tian feels that it is really impossible for the team to win the championship this season. If it is the finals now, then Lin Tian will definitely throw away everything without hesitation and then fight for it. Do your best to win the championship.

But now, the team's situation is obviously different.

Basketball, after all, is for five people!

There are still two and a half rounds of the series to be played, and at least 13-4 more games must be played. Just play every game. Lin Tian knows that his teammates, even if they persist, they will definitely not be able to resist. of!
