NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Lin Tian's robber-like steal and dunk not only allowed the Pacers to directly tie the score, but also made Kukoc lose the courage to continue his personal offense!

This guy's intermittent soft egg syndrome recurred again. Whether he faced Ben, Brad Miller or Lin Tian, ​​he immediately chose to pass the ball, completely turning into a transition point on the court.

But Westphal played him obviously not to let him pass the ball too much.

What Westphal values ​​​​is his offensive ability!
In particular, Kukoc is a representative of strong offense and weak defense. When his offense is completely unable to play, or even dares not to play at all, he not only does nothing on the offensive end, but also becomes useless on the defensive end!
In the rest of the first quarter, Lin Tian used screens three times in a row to let Kukoc defend himself. Then he attacked three times, once by driving to the basket for a layup, once in a mid-range pull-up jumper, and the last time. Retreat for 3 points!
Three consecutive offenses all resulted in 3 consecutive points. In addition to the two previous dunks, Lin Tian had already scored 7 consecutive points in the 2 minutes at the end of the first quarter. His offensive firepower was The second half of the first quarter was completely open!
And the 76ers also went from maintaining a weak lead to falling behind in these few minutes!
Even though Iverson scored 15 points in the first quarter and maintained a good efficiency, he was still alone! Especially in the last two rounds of the first quarter, the Pacers changed their defensive strategy and asked Lin Tian to defend Iverson. This change immediately made Iverson's offense difficult.

He failed to score in two consecutive rounds of personal offense! On the contrary, it was Lin Tian on the Pacers who personally drove the offense and scored continuously, making his score rise rapidly.

第一节的最后2分钟，步行者队一举轰出了一波11：2，双方的比分变成了24：33！

The Pacers' lead has reached 9 points!

In the second quarter of the game, the 76ers, who were almost behind by double digits, did not dare to make a big move. They directly let Iverson, who played the entire first quarter, continue to play!
In the first round of the second quarter, the Pacers' new aid Best went directly to the basket to score a layup, but his layup was rejected by the basket and failed to hit.

But Harrington who followed up immediately showed his impact and vitality. He grabbed the backboard in front of Geiger, then took off with just a slight bend in his knees, and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!
This year's first-round pick, after two seasons of being on the bench, this year will finally have performance and value that matches or even exceeds his draft position!
Harrington's dunk widened the point difference between the two sides to 11 points. Although Iverson also started scoring again, facing the five-man team of Miller, Harrington, Best and Christie, Iverson Sen's firepower can't keep up!

The old Miller's three-pointers, the young Miller's support, screens and hand-off passes, Christie's three-pointers and air cuts, Harrington's vitality and soft touch all made Iverson's score look like a one-man score. So powerless!
Four minutes into the second quarter, although Iverson's score had reached 4 points, the point difference between the two sides had widened to 21 points!
It was at this time that Carlisle waved his hand, and Carter, Lin Tian, ​​and Webb came on the stage, while young Miller, Best, and Harrington came off.

After Westphal's prompt, the 76ers' two big men indeed began to retreat to cover Iverson and help him advance.

With the help of his teammates' cover, Iverson finally succeeded this time. He once again asked for a high double screen at the top of the arc, then reached the three-point line in one step and immediately took off to take advantage of Lin Tian's failure to bypass the screen. !
"Shh!"

But his so-called height of 183 centimeters is a pain that he can never avoid!
In front of Lin Tian, ​​an opponent who is a whole size older than him and is stronger than him in all aspects, even if his teammates keep covering him, Iverson's offense is still struggling and extremely inefficient!
The 76ers are once again in the same predicament they were in last year, or almost in years past.

"It's meaningless if you don't run!" Iverson cursed in a low voice, then elbowed Lin Tian away and said: "Stay away from me! The game is not over yet, and it's not time for you to show off your power to me!"

The score difference between the two sides is about to reach 20 points!
At this time, Westphal showed that he was better than Brown. His reaction and adjustment before the game were really fast. Although there was no timeout or substitution, Westphal stood up and shouted to the court. Said: "Cover! Cover Allen from the backcourt! Help him get rid of it!"

This time Iverson forced his way to the basket and missed the layup.

"Oh!"

Apart from Iverson, the team no longer has a suitable and reliable scoring point. The team relies too much on Iverson for everything. The team can only count on Iverson for everything. Then when his offense is blocked After that, the threat of this team was really not worth mentioning!

The Pacers' most lethal and craziest offensive five last year is back on the court again!
Lin Tian, ​​Carter, Miller, Christie and Weber!

Iverson's fighting spirit and never-say-die spirit are definitely worth promoting and encouraging.

This guy is starting to cum!

"FUXX!" Lin Tian's words made Iverson completely angry!
His self-esteem began to protest, and his self-esteem made him beat up Lin Tian!
But obviously, he can't do it!

But what made him despair was that not only did the basketball fly quickly over his head and directly into Lin Tian's hands, but the distance between Lin Tian and him was getting farther and farther!

But Lin Daguan is very particular!
He didn't give Iverson another chance to humiliate himself. Instead, he just stood up from the ground and hit the three-pointer into the net!

The score difference between the two sides continues to expand, and the strength gap between the two sides is also visible to the naked eye.

"Allen, I'll give you some advice. If you don't want to be humiliated on the court, you have to be self-aware! You have to know what you can do and what you can't do! For example, you can't defend me! Let E Rick should be tortured for you, after all, his face is not as valuable as yours, so it will be lost if he loses it!"

According to this offensive efficiency, if Lin Tian does it again, he can go directly to the basket!
You can go to the basket, but you don’t have to!

Christie threw the basketball in his hand toward the basket!
There, there was Carter, who had just reached his position and was very calm throughout the first quarter!
"boom!"

But just when Iverson just ran outside the 3-point line, Lin Tian's ball fell into the basket with great accuracy!
This goal was scored cleanly!

As soon as he saw the 76ers withdrawing inside, Lin Tian did not force it anymore. He chose to retreat and lead the defense, which was a more secure way but would not be passed by the opponent.

You know, Iverson has played 16 consecutive minutes of the game, and he has not even gone down for 1 second, but Lin Tian took a 4-minute rest in the second quarter, and he is a new force with full energy!
Coupled with Lin Tian's crushing weight and dexterous skills, Iverson was really struggling to face Lin Tian who was almost completely covering him!

"Shh!"

After Lin Tian interfered with Iverson's shooting, he quickly turned around and hugged the basketball that fell from the rim. Then this time he dribbled the ball quickly on his own. He dribbled all the way to the free throw line and suddenly put his hands on his crotch. The ball leaked behind him.

After Lin Tian showed a mocking smile like "You're a waste of effort, boy," he stopped waiting!

Weber under the basket did not let the ball go out of bounds. Instead, he caught the basketball with one hand and threw it toward the front court! As the number one inside passing master in the league today, Weber's passing has always been steady, accurate and fast!
The basketball quickly hit the front court. Miller hugged the basketball and threw it directly to Christie who was following up in the middle. Christie stopped on the spot after taking the ball. His stop made the entire 76ers players who were quickly returning to defense also An obvious lag!
Their footsteps stopped, and stopping meant that an opportunity was coming!

Iverson was risking his life to catch up. He felt like his lungs were about to be exploded. He just wanted to catch up with Lin Tian!

Lin Tian didn't even think about it, he turned around and pushed his butt against Iverson.

After returning to the court, the first change for the Pacers was that Lin Tian started to defend Iverson very fiercely from the backcourt. He wanted to constantly put pressure and physical confrontation on Iverson from the backcourt. Even if Iverson could successfully move the ball to the frontcourt, he wouldn't have much energy to attack.

Weber, who followed behind him, grabbed the basketball and immediately threw it into the air. It was Carter again! Carter, who followed up from the wing, soared again and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!
"boom!"

After a loud bang, the happy little motorcycle started driving again!
16 points!
The difference between the two sides continues to widen!
And this is obviously not over yet. When Lin Tian continues to pester Iverson from the backcourt, the 76ers' offense will not be smooth!
And when the leader of the team is willing to do this kind of dirty work that is not helpful at all in the data column, needless to say, the team's overall defensive strength will definitely improve!

Lin Tian, ​​who reached beyond the 3-point line, didn't even continue to rush toward the basket. He suddenly stopped, then slowed down, and even had time to look back at Iverson, who was struggling to catch up.

After knocking Iverson back three steps, Lin Tian did not continue to move forward, but turned around and spread his hands, saying, 'Where are you, that's it? ' With an expression on his face, Iverson was furious. He raised his legs to rush over and continue to defend.

"Didn't I look clearly enough just now Allen?" Lin Tian also quickly came to the 76ers' basket, stuck to Iverson's side and said: "I told you to stop running, you can't catch up, no significance!"

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, Iverson scored 2 points!
He finally broke the team's scoring drought during this period!
But he didn't have time to be happy at all. He didn't even see whether the goal was scored, because as early as the moment he took the shot, Lin Tian had already ran in front of him!

He straight up pulled it up and took a 3-pointer!
"Impossible!" Iverson shouted and rushed past Lin Tian. He was going to grab the rebound! He thought it was impossible to score such a goal!

At the end of the first half, the score difference between the two sides had reached 21 points. From any point of view, the Pacers will get a deserved victory tonight!
At the beginning of the third quarter, on the Pacers' first offense, Snow, who had been guarding Lin Tian, ​​turned to guard Carter because of several screens, and the person guarding Lin Tian became Iverson!
As soon as he saw Iverson coming to confront him, Lin Tian immediately became energetic!
Bullying the weak has always been one of his favorite things!

Not to mention that there are two top defensive masters in Christie and Ben in the Pacers' starting lineup, and not to mention whether he is still physically strong after playing the first half. He is crazy. Lin Tian's own single Defense is enough to give Iverson a headache!

When Lin Tian rushed to the 3-point line, Iverson had just crossed half court!

Under the ebb and flow of one another, Iverson's first offense ended with him forcing his way to the mid-range and then taking a shot but missing 3 shots.

Lin Tian didn't give Iverson a chance to prepare. He suddenly exerted force and hit Iverson with his butt!
After a muffled sound, how could Iverson stand still? He immediately took three steps back!
Lin Tian's butt knocked Iverson from near the 3-point line to the free throw line area.

Iverson even once thought: If he and Lin Tian scored 100 points against each other, he might not even get 50 points!
It was so miserable to be suppressed!
At least, tonight's situation is that Iverson was completely bomb-proofed by Lin Tian!

Facing Lin Tian, ​​whether Iverson was making emergency jump shots, directly breaking through, or using the ball behind the screen to shoot directly, all of them failed time and time again. Facing Lin Tian, ​​all the things Iverson was proud of were The way of attacking seems to be completely different!
He really can't help it!
He knew very well that facing Lin Tian, ​​all he could rely on was the situation where his state suddenly broke out and then he made whatever shots he wanted.

But obviously, Iverson can't do it today.

As Iverson was completely guarded by Lin Tian, ​​the 76ers' offense also completely came to a standstill, and their scores almost stopped growing!

Throughout the third quarter, the 76ers didn't even score 10 points! They only scored 8 points in this quarter!
At the end of the third quarter, the score difference between the two sides had reached 35 points!
A complete defeat, a humiliating victory that completely knocked the smug 76ers to the ground!

In the fourth quarter, the coaches of both sides took the initiative to withdraw their main lineups and began to let role players kill time on the court.

Everyone can see it: garbage time has arrived!

Although Iverson scored 29 points in the first three quarters, 15 of them came in the first quarter, and his shooting percentage was only 27 of 9!
What's even more frightening is that in the first quarter alone, Iverson made 11 of 5 shots from the field. In other words, in the following second and third quarters, he made a total of 16 of 4 shots! It’s really miserable!

And for this 16-for-4 shooting, at least 85% of the credit goes to Lin Tian!
Tonight, Lin Tian only played three quarters. Except for the continuous scoring in the first half, Lin Tian did not play particularly fiercely today. He only took 14 shots in total and hit 8 goals, including 3. He made 4 of 3 field goals and 6 of 5 free throws. He scored 24 points, 13 assists and 4 steals in the game!

The highest scorer for the Pacers tonight was Webb. He scored 3 points, 27 rebounds and 14 assists in 4 quarters. In addition, he also took advantage of a certain timeout to serve as a substitute for the 76ers. At the table, he yelled at Westphal.

"If you don't know how to play, just stop calling timeout!"

In response, Westphal expressed confusion.

This timeout was obviously called by your Carlisle, it’s none of my business!
But obviously, no matter what Westphal's mood is tonight, everyone on the Pacers is extremely happy. They won a vivid victory to cheer for their championship and for their perfect night. One more time is the icing on the cake!
After easily defeating the 76ers in the opening game of the new season, the Pacers' next schedule was far less smooth than expected!
In the second game of the new season, the Pacers, who continued to play at home, met the Heat, their opponent in last year's Eastern Conference finals, who came to challenge.

It stands to reason that the Heat this season is nothing compared to last season. Without two top insiders, Mourning and Malone, the Heat's goal this season has rapidly declined from competing for the championship to entering the playoffs.

But it is such a team, as if to avenge last year's sweep, they played an unparalleled state when facing the Pacers!
Payton threw in 6 three-pointers, and Mashburn scored a super-high 44 points in the game!

Not to mention that the Heat still played a top-notch defensive performance despite missing two big players. Their defense caught the Pacers obviously off guard and they were completely unable to respond as they should have.

The Pacers' perimeter, including Lin Tian, ​​was collectively inaccurate. They only made 3 of 15 3-pointers tonight, which is really terrible! On the defensive end, the Pacers failed to give the Heat enough respect and toughness. Not only were they robbed of a large number of offensive rebounds by the Heat, but they also failed to target the Heat's key players at all!

To put it simply: The Pacers made the game simple, and the Heat also made it simple!

Under this situation, they naturally failed to win the game. The team lost the second game of the season with a score of 89:80!
The first two games, 1 win and 1 loss!
The Pacers' start was far less amazing than last season!
But fortunately, they just took a nap for a while and did not play with the intensity they should have. It is not that the team is really bad. Then they quickly regrouped and quickly won 5 games in a row, returning to the first place in the Eastern Conference. Location!
Although they won another 4 games and lost one, the Pacers soon won 3 consecutive games again. They ended the first month of the new season with a record of 11 wins and 3 losses!
In this month's games, the team gave Webb a lot of shooting opportunities and the ball rights for the main attack. Their goal was to get the somewhat fat Webber back into his own game quickly, with the whole team feeding him the ball. Next, the team's second-in-command is getting better and better as he plays, getting more and more into form!
在球队月末的3连胜中，韦伯更是连续3场比赛以50%以上的命中率拿下26分13篮板4次助攻的漂亮数据！

'The King' is back!

The whole of Indiana is cheering for Webber's recovery! They don't even think that the team's record of 11 wins and 3 losses is not impressive enough or dominant enough!
The players are all in their best form, that's the most important thing!
But Weber's condition was just a little better, and the surprise happened!
On November 11st, the Pacers played against the Spurs without Duncan in an away game. This game was not supposed to have any troubles, but something unexpected happened near the end of the third quarter!

During an unconfronted run, Weber didn't know what happened, but his knee suddenly misaligned. He immediately fell to the ground in pain and couldn't get up for a long time. The team doctor immediately came in to check him, but the result was not optimistic!

Anyone who knows something about sports medicine and rehabilitation knows that the more inexplicable injuries occur without confrontation, the more likely they are to be very serious!
Webb's injury made the Pacers players somewhat absent-minded, and they failed to win this game and suffered another defeat in San Antonio.

And the news that came next, I don’t know whether it is good or bad!

The good news is that Weber's knee has no structural damage and does not require surgery. He only needs to rest and recover, and there is a high probability that there will be no sequelae.

But the bad news is that he will have to miss at least 6-8 weeks to fully recover!

This means that Weber has to wait until 2001 before he can come back!
Everyone knows how important Webber is to the Pacers, and missing him will definitely be a huge harm to the team!

The Pacers' entire system and style of play had to undergo considerable changes and adjustments as a result.

This directly caused the Pacers to suffer another defeat against the Rockets led by Francis and Mobley!
The Rockets' latest backcourt duo showed off their powerful firepower in this game, using random shots and shots to make the Pacers lose by a full 14 points!
This game not only allowed the Pacers to relinquish their No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference and be overtaken by the Magic in terms of record, but also allowed them to suffer a -game losing streak after a full year!

They haven't lost in a row for a whole year! The Hoosiers have even sort of forgotten what it's like to be on a losing streak.

Fortunately, in the next game, although it was still in Texas and facing the Dallas people who were in good form and record this year, Lin Tian took action! Lin Tian, ​​who has not been particularly popular this season, completely destroyed the Mavericks' entire defense in this game.

他在这个晚上31投16中，其中3分球12投6中，罚球14罚12中，爆砍个人赛季新高的50分！另外他还顺手送出7次助攻，抓到了8个篮板！
Tonight, Lin Tian once again showed his ability to win two consecutive MVP awards!
At the same time, it was after this battle that Lin Tian once again surpassed O'Neal in the MVP list and returned to the first position!
After Lin Tian's outburst, the Pacers seemed to have finally found their feeling again. The whole team worked hard and won 4 consecutive games, extending their winning streak to 5 games. .

Then, the Pacers lost!
The main reason why they lost this time was that Ben accidentally stepped on Carter's foot while grabbing a rebound. Ben's ankle was accidentally sprained, and Carter's toenail also fell off because of Ben's kick. Need to rest for at least 4-6 weeks!

In one game, two absolute main players were injured!

The season is less than two months old, and the Pacers have already injured 3 people!

This unfortunate and painful wave of injuries also reminds every Indiana person of the 1999 playoffs!
In the playoffs of that year, they originally aimed to defend their title but suffered a series of injuries in the playoffs. As a result, they lost the Eastern Conference semifinals against the Heat!

The injuries of that year are still painful in the hearts of Indiana people! After all, they all believe that if there were no injuries, the champion that year would definitely be the Pacers! And that means that the Pacers now have three consecutive championships in hand, instead of the current two championships in three years!
The Indianapolis knows all too well the feeling of a dynasty being wiped out by sudden injuries!

But for the Pacers, this is not entirely bad news.

Thinking on the bright side, it is better to get injured now than at the end of the season!

If the team once again faces this kind of injury wave in the playoffs, it will really be unspeakable!
After even Carter and Ben were injured, the Pacers' starting lineup has become somewhat unrecognizable!

After Carter and Ben were injured, when they faced the Timberwolves in the next game, their starting lineup had become Lin Tian, ​​Miller, Christie, Harrington and Brad Miller!

The two Millers being put into the starting lineup means that the Pacers' already depleted bench lineup is even weaker. On their current bench, except for Best, there are almost no players worthy of trust!

For the next game, they can almost only rely on these main players.

This year's Timberwolves are still playing very well. The 'Madman' Sprewell they introduced at a low price last year is getting better and better with the team. Now he averages 18 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists per game, and has become a ball player. The team's leading outside attacker and most reliable outside defensive specialist.

1999年的第六号新秀，神射手斯泽比亚克也适应了NBA的尺度，他今年能以51%的投篮命中率和39%的3分命中率场均拿下13分！
In addition, the team also has former All-Star point guard Trier Brandon. This guy is the Timberwolves’ biggest gain from the Marbury trade. So far this season, Trier is averaging 11 points, 7 assists and 2 steals per game. , is the team's most reliable offensive initiator and team brain!

Of course, the team's strongest point and the absolute core of the team is Kevin Garnett!
这名今年在奥运会上折戟但已经奉献了全力的大前锋本赛季场均能够拿下22分11篮板5助攻，另外还有1.5盖帽和1.5抢断入账！这家伙当然是当今联盟最抢手的顶级大前锋之一，仍旧是攻守兼备的最好代言人之一！

Some people even say that he is the only man among the new generation in the league who is qualified to replace Lin Tian alone!

And this Timberwolves team, under the leadership of coach Sanders, has slowly twisted itself into a rope this year and is completely united!
And their record has also improved steadily. With a current record of 14 wins and 8 losses, they are temporarily ranked fourth in the Western Conference! The Timberwolves will have a good chance this year of ranking in the top four and entering the playoffs! This will also be their first opportunity to start a playoff game with home court advantage!

Of course, it is too early to say this now. The season has only started for less than two months, and there is still half a month until Christmas. What kind of performance can a team do this season? , I really can’t see it now.

But regardless of whether you can tell what kind of team the Timberwolves are, when their absolute main players are lined up on the court, it immediately makes the Pacers' starting lineup a little sad.

Three out of five
Anyway, the fans at the Target Center at the Timberwolves' home court were extremely excited and full of expectations!

They all feel that when the team plays against the remnant Pacers, they will definitely be able to show their momentum and win this victory!
As the players from both sides finished warming up, the starting players from both sides also took to the court.

Terrell Brandon, Wally Szczerbiak, Terrell Sprewell, Kevin Garnett, and Rasu Nesterovich are the top five Timberwolves players. Strong starters, all present!

On the bench, there are also powerful players such as Anthony Pillar, Chauncey Billups, and Laphonso Ellis. This year's Timberwolves are definitely strong and united!
Soon, the referee blew the whistle. Nesterovich and Brad Miller took off at the same time. Miller, who was nearly 220 centimeters tall, had the advantage and slapped the ball to Lin Tian. Lin Tian took the ball. Then he didn't worry, he stretched out his hand and said: "Don't worry, let's play one ball at a time!"

The current lineup of the Pacers really does not support the Pacers to continue to play crazy fast. After all, except for Lin Tian, ​​the running and jumping abilities of the remaining players in the current lineup are really not that good.

Playing positional warfare and playing ball by ball is the most suitable tactic for the current Pacers.

"The game has begun! Let's see how the Pacers, without so many main players, can deal with the challenge of the young and highly impactful Timberwolves? Can they create a team that adapts to the new lineup? What about the system?”

TNT chose to broadcast this game live across the United States. After all, it is a duel between the strongest team in the league and the top emerging forces. This game still attracted the attention of a lot of fans.

Lin Tian dribbled slowly to the frontcourt. Facing Brandon, who was only 180 centimeters tall, Lin Tian had an absolute advantage in height and weight. Lin Tian did not pass the ball, but turned his back directly at the top of the key and leaned against him. With his own weight and strength, he ran directly into the inside line!
While pushing forward forcefully, Lin Tian looked around. Just when Lin Tian was about to enter the 3-second zone, the Timberwolves' double-team finally arrived!
Szczerbiak, who came online, quickly recovered and wanted to double-team Lin Tian.

As soon as he saw the Timberwolves being double-teamed, Lin Tian reacted quickly, turned towards the baseline and passed Brandon directly into the 3-second zone. Garnett's help defense never had to worry, this guy stepped forward to block. Lin Tian's offensive line was blocked between him and the basket.

But Lin Tian reacted faster. With a horizontal jump, he jumped directly from the middle of Garnett and Brandon to the line, staggering the defense of the two, and then picked the basket with one hand and easily scored 2 points!
"KG, where are you? I can't see you!" After Lin Tian scored, he returned to defense and reached out to look like a telescope, looking like he was looking for Garnett. He was still arrogant!
"It's only 2 points, what's there to be proud of!" Garnett said with a dark face. Well, maybe it was because his face was already that dark: "We will fight back!"

"Fight back?" Lin Tian pointed to Harrington beside him and said: "Let me introduce to you our new guy, Al. He has a nickname: Kevin Terminator! Or 'Wolf Slayer', or 'hunter'!"

"Come on, Al, say hello to Kevin and bart your teeth at him!"

"Oh oh oh!" Harrington, who was recently promoted to the starting lineup and was in very good shape, was very cooperative and made a fierce expression at Garnett: "But what Lin said is wrong, I am not a butcher. "Wolf", I am at best a 'dog abuser' or a 'dog killing expert'!"

"You're not really a wolf, you're just a wild dog on the lawn."

"Boy, you're looking for death!" Garnett glared and immediately became angry!

If you, Weber and Ben, are so arrogant towards me, I will forget about it.

What are you kid doing?

"Here comes the ball!" Garnett was in the high post, with his back stuck on Harrington, who was a head shorter than him, and reached for the ball.

As for Harrington, he directly lowered his center of gravity to a very low position.

This is the defensive strategy Carlisle told him before the game.

"Kevin's lower plate is very soft and lacks strength. It touches him below the waist, making it impossible for him to break through and pull up for jump shots. His personal scoring ability is mostly lost! This guy does not have the ability to kill hard. , hold him down and prevent him from explosion, you will definitely become famous in this battle tonight!"

Become famous in World War I!
Hearing this word in Harrington's ears would definitely make him excited in an instant and burst out with huge fighting power.

After all, he has been waiting for this opportunity for two full years!

At that moment, Garnett felt as if there was an iron scale on his lower body. Not to mention pushing in, the iron scale completely pressed against the inside of his calf, causing Garnett to jump. Can't get up.

To put it simply, whether Garnett wants to directly break through or pull up a jumper at this moment, it is difficult to exert force and achieve results.

If it is another insider, it is also a very good method to choose to play in singles at this moment and rely on strength to crush inside.

But while Garnett has top-notch movement speed and defensive capabilities, what he loses is naturally his own tonnage and strength. If he has enough strength to post up Harrington, he will not be pushed by Harrington. Pan's defense was in a panic.

Pass the ball!

After Garnett only briefly tested Harrington's strength, he stopped thinking about anything and directly began to observe his teammates and prepare to pass the ball.

"Kevin, be careful!" Szczerbiak yelled, reminding Garnett to be careful, but it was already too late!

Lin Tian searched for Garnett's visual blind spot, approaching from a direction that Garnett could not see. Finally, when Garnett gave up singles and was about to look for a teammate to pass the ball, he suddenly came out from behind him and shot a handful. Take the ball out!
Lin Tian hit the basketball directly into Harrington's arms. Without hesitation, Harrington made a pass and passed the ball towards the front court!
Lin Tian ran wildly after catching the ball, got to the basket and dunked, and the Pacers scored another 2 points!
Then in the next round, Garnett still asked for the ball from the high post, but this time he no longer faced Harrington with his back, but instead faced the basket, and then the basketball and center of gravity were very low like Harrington. !
But this guy obviously still underestimated Harrington!
You know, Harrington is a standard inside cannon, the type of short guy with mediocre stature but full of strength. If you ask him to defend traditional big centers like O'Neal and Duncan, he will die.

If you let him guard Garnett and Dirk Nowitzki, who are soft and dexterous in shooting, then he will really be able to defend you accurately, and he can always come up with some new tricks for you!
This time, as soon as Garnett lowered the ball, Harrington immediately became entangled with his hands like a hyena that had seen the meat. It didn't matter whether he touched Garnett's hand or the ball, it was anyway. He put his hands together, then exerted force like crazy, and used his waist to drive his upper body to throw the basketball violently!
How could Garnett withstand this sudden force? The basketball lost control in the blink of an eye and was cut off by Harrington!

"Run!" After two successful defenses in a row, Harrington was also very excited. He opened his mouth and roared, then quickly found Lin Tian and passed the ball.

"You run too!" Lin Tian got the basketball and ran towards the frontcourt. Then when he rushed from the wing to the outside of the 3-second zone, he suddenly made a one-handed hip pass.

The basketball passed under Lin Tian's crotch and bounced heavily on the floor before being hugged by Harrington's hands.

Then he rises from the ground and abuses the basket with both hands!
"boom!"

After a muffled sound, the Pacers continued to expand their lead!
"Is this something new from the Pacers? Strengthening defense and playing defensive counterattack?" The situation on the field was temporarily completely controlled by the Pacers, and Barkley also smiled and chatted with Kenny next to him.

"It's all about fast offense and transition between offense and defense, but the previous Pacers didn't have defenders like Harrington in the high post! Needless to say, Chris's talent on the offensive end is that he grabbed rebounds and played near the baseline. It’s no exaggeration to say that his first passing ability is the best in the league.”

"But he really won't fight with people in the high position, and then directly intercept the ball and launch a counterattack! Harrington's defense against Garnett tonight is really impressive!"

"But what I want to say is that not every team has a power forward like Garnett who likes to launch in the high post and act as the engine of the team.
