Chapter 102 Another victory

After several consecutive offenses were scored by Lance, the Heat took the lead in calling a timeout, trying to find a way to contain the momentum of the Pacers.After the timeout, the Heat made personnel adjustments, replacing Chalmers with a more experienced Ray Allen.

After James came to the frontcourt with the ball, facing Lance's defense again, he chose to directly call his teammates to help with the pick-and-roll. After the simple pick-and-roll ended, James immediately started, using his physical advantage and inertia after rushing to forcibly break away and switch defenses Ye Xuan then scored the ball with an easy jumper.

The two sides played back and forth. When the game progressed to the third quarter with less than 3 minutes left, the Pacers took the lead in making personnel adjustments, replacing Ye Xuan with George Hill. Simmi and Scola replaced Roy Hibbert and David West.Leaving Pickle and Lance Stephenson to lead the bench for a period of time.

The Heat, on the other hand, continued to allow the Big Three to play the entire third quarter. After the third quarter, the Pacers temporarily took a 77-69 lead relying on Lance Stephenson's super efficiency and Ye Xuan's assist. The opponent has as many as 8 points.

At the end of the break, the Pacers replaced Paojiao and Lance at the start of the fourth quarter, and they were all on the bench.The Heat also replaced the other two giants except James.James stayed on the court alone and led the Heat's bench to start chasing points.

Although facing Solomon Hill's defense, James can't effectively force the opponent to single, but Solomon can't completely block James' passing route. Under James' organization, the Heat's substitutes hit outside shots one after another. , so that Coach Frank had to call a timeout and replace Ye Xuan in advance.

After Ye Xuan came on the court, he immediately pinched the Heat's strongest point of fire outside -- Ray Allen.After James held the ball to attract double-teams, he passed the ball to Ray Allen who thought he had run out of space, but Ye Xuan's defense was not so simple to let you get rid of it. When the opponent jumped up and was about to shoot, Ye Xuan Has come to his face, jumped high and blocked the shot that the opponent was determined to win.

George Hill on the side picked up the basketball that was under the cap, and immediately started to rush forward. Ye Xuan followed closely behind. When he came near the three-point line, Ye Xuan stopped directly. Hill Then continue to kill the opponent inside, James chased behind Hill and was going to reward the opponent with a hat.

But after seeing Ye Xuan stopped outside the three-point line, James thought about it and decided not to chase the cap. After all, if he didn't chase in, the opponent should just score a two-pointer, but if he chased deep, the opponent He passed the ball again, so with Ye Xuan's shooting rate, wouldn't it be a direct 3-pointer for the opponent without defense?
Hill didn't care what James' mental activities were. After entering the penalty area, he found that James had given up chasing him, so he easily jumped up and picked the basketball into the basket.Instantly broke the Pacers' 2-minute scoring drought.

Afterwards, the offense of the two sides also began to suffer. First, James assisted Chris Anderson's basketball and flew directly out of the baseline because the latter did not grasp it. After that, Ye Xuan also missed a shot on the offensive end. Fortunately, Louis - Scola's touch is not bad. In the next two offenses, he passed the pick-and-roll and made a mid-range shot. It can be regarded as easing the pressure of being chased for the Pacers.

The game went on for less than 3 minutes, and the Pacers took advantage of a dead ball to directly replace all the main players.The Heat followed closely behind and replaced their strongest lineup. At this time, the Pacers still had a 5-point advantage over their opponents.

The difference of 5 points is not much, but if it is less, it will take at least two rounds to recover.At this time, the Pacers no longer continued their style of quick counterattack and opportunistic rush shots, but instead played steadily and played a Spurs-style offensive.After Ye Xuan brought the ball to the frontcourt, he began to suppress the rhythm, delaying the time until there were less than 10 seconds left before he started to make any moves.

Unlike the Pacers, the Heat are still lagging behind, so when attacking, of course they can grab the time when they can, but the Pacers' defense is as solid as ever, so the Heat can't find any way to play fast, helpless Next, you can only look for opportunities in the same position as the Pacers.

However, the Pacers have a strong inside line like Hibbert, and David West can also cause some trouble to the opponent inside, so after the set position battle, the Heat, which did not feel particularly good today, did not They were able to recover the score as they wished, but because of Ye Xuan's ingenious passing and organization, the opponent seized the opportunity again to play a 7:2 spurt, and instantly opened the point difference to 10 points.

Seeing that their team's offense was blocked, James and Wade jumped anxiously, but as the Pacers' key defense targets, the two had no special way to tear apart the Pacers' defense.But at this time, the real giant stood up, and after using a back run to widen the distance with Hibbert, he received a point from James outside the three-point line and made a key three-pointer.

Afterwards, although on the defensive end, Bosh was forced to foul Hibbert, who was attacking the inside line, and gave the opponent two free throw opportunities, but in turn, he caught the ball near the top of the arc and made another three-pointer. After scoring a three-pointer, it also rekindled the Heat's hope of winning.

It's a pity that at this time, Pickle came out and poured cold water on the opponent. After holding the ball from outside the three-point line, he forced a breakthrough to pass Wade, and then forced a shot to cause another foul by the real giant. A tossed basketball fell directly into the basket.

After the extra penalty hit, the Pacers also stabilized their position. As time went by, although the Heat still didn't want to give up, and used foul tactics and three-pointers to catch up with the score in one fell swoop to only 4 points, but then After Ye Xuan made two free throws and Ray Allen made a three-pointer, the Heat also lost hope of a comeback.

At the end of the game, the Pacers defeated the powerful Heat 96:90. The defending champion fell behind 0:2 in the playoffs for the first time since forming the Big Three.The biggest hero of the game was Lance Stephenson, who made 13 of the 10 shots in the game, especially the 17-point performance in the third quarter, which also laid a solid foundation for the Pacers' victory.
