Barros's assists were because Han Yi had a strong enough ability to attack the basket, and he could turn all the good and bad passes into goals.

If an assist is worth 10 points, then 2 points go to Barros, and the remaining 8 points go to Han Yi!

Although Joe Dumars's direct assists are not many, if you count the indirect assists, you will find that as long as he is on the court, the team's offense will be so simple, and when he is not on the court, the team's offensive performance will be very sluggish!

Joe Dumars usually does not take the initiative to cooperate with Han Yi, but often uses Han Yi as a cover to instigate others.

For example, when Han Yi attracted the Pacers' twin towers to attack and encircle at the same time, Han Yi returned the ball to Joe Dumars, and the ball did not even stop in Dumars' hands, and directly hit Ben Wallace who was ambushing behind Rick Schmitz!

When Schmitz just turned around, he could only watch Big Ben dunk!

"Bang!"

Simple and rough, two-handed slam dunk!

Last season, Ben Wallace, as the starting center of the Celtics, averaged 4.6 points per game, and this season, his score soared to 8.1 points!

Although this is still a very low average score for an NBA starting center, it is already very satisfying for the Celtics.

When we already have Han Yi as a nuclear weapon, it is enough for another inside player to understand the simplest cake.

For Ben, the level of the team organizer last season was obviously not enough for him, a guy who can only score the ball when he is completely open, to seize the fleeting offensive opportunity.

Joe Dumars can do this kind of fleeting opportunity in dynamic offense, although he lacks the ability to create new offensive opportunities out of thin air compared to historical pass masters such as Kidd, Nash, and Stockton.

But what Joe Dumars can't do, Han Yi can do.

Of course, what we are talking about here is not passing the ball, but: as long as Han Yi gets the ball, the opponent must double-team him if they want to stop Han Yi, and as long as they double-team him, it will give the Celtics a chance to play with more people in a certain area!

If the opportunity is obvious, Han Yi will pass it directly. If the opportunity is not good, he will pass it back to Joe Dumas and let him organize a wave. When the ball returns to Han Yi, a good offensive opportunity may have appeared!

For example:

Han Yi once again attracted a double-team from Pacers power forward Dale Davis and small forward Chris Mullin at the free throw line!

Can this ball be played? If it was last season, Han Yi would choose to do it directly!

But now Han Yi chose to return the ball to Joe Dumas, and when the ball was passed from Dumas to Han Yi again by McGrady, Han Yi under the basket was facing only Rick Schmitz!

After Han Yi got the ball, he didn't make any moves to get rid of it. He didn't care how much effort Rick Schmitz, who had already hugged him, had put in. He took a step inside and rose from the ground!

"Bang!"

A dunk, the fruit fell, knocked the big white bear Rick Schmitz to the ground!

2+1!

Han Yi went to the free throw line and scored a point!

70:50!

Just after halfway through the third quarter, the Celtics' lead had reached 20 points!

Compared with the score, what made the Indiana Pacers more desperate was the Celtics' defense!

The biggest change in the Celtics' scoring this year was that a large amount of ball possession was freed from Han Yi's hands.

From last season, Han Yi took the ball and worked hard to the end, the ball possession was given to Joe Dumars to control. Others, even pure rough guys like Ben Wallace, got their own share of the offensive scenes.

Such offensive changes made the Celtics' offense start to blossom in more places, and Han Yi's physical energy consumption on the offensive end was significantly reduced, but in fact, the Celtics' overall offense did not become better than last season.

Because Han Yi's offense is too buggy, when a large number of ball rights are dispersed, the Celtics' offense is integrated and played more as a team, but this does not mean that the offensive efficiency is higher!

On the NBA stage, when a person can start the offensive mode with a 65% hit rate without distinction and do it for a whole game, no team play can guarantee to be more efficient than him.

Facing the Celtics' new offensive mode, for the Pacers, although they still can't defend, it will not be more uncomfortable than watching Han Yi beat the whole court and being powerless.

But defense is different. This season, the Celtics' defense is a huge leap forward!

Although Han Yi was selected for the best defensive second team last season, although Han Yi led the block list, although Han Yi's inside partner is Ben Wallace, the future DPOY god. But the Celtics' defensive ability is only at the middle level of the league, and even needs to go down a little bit if you are not careful.

Because offense is something like that, if you have a historical scoring point, your team's offense will naturally not be too bad.

But just one or two people who can defend cannot make up for the big hole of the whole team, and the biggest hole in the Celtics' defense last season was the pair of extras on the outside who let people break through at will.

As long as there is one person on the opposite side, the Celtics can't defend the outside.

When the outside defense can be ignored, Han Yi's block in the inside is naturally very enjoyable, but the remaining wave of offense that slipped through the net also made the Celtics very uncomfortable!

But this time there is no problem. Joe Dumars and Dell Curry's current defense is only 30% to 40% compared to their peak period, but this 30% to 40% can effectively intercept half of the casual outside penetration.

Or if they encounter those who are really impossible to intercept, these two experienced veterans can effectively drive them into the defense zone of Han Yi or Ben.

In addition, McGrady has become stronger this season, so he will not suffer too much against strong forwards.

When the Celtics' three lines of defense are established, either you shoot us to death outside the three-point line, or as long as you rush in, you will be dealt with by us!

Unfortunately, Reggie Miller, a god-level three-point shooter, was also very inaccurate today. Not only was his outside line inaccurate, but the inside line was also completely abandoned, leaving only the elderly Mullin struggling to support, and the result was...

99:74!

The Celtics beat the Pacers by 25 points and won 8 consecutive games!

However, such performance still cannot satisfy the black fans. Some people said that the 58-point victory over the Bulls was bullying, and the 25-point victory over the Pacers was bullying the old, weak and disabled.

Han Yi glanced at the schedule. We're going home to play the Los Angeles Lakers in two days, right?

27-year-old Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant who's not even 21 yet!

The Los Angeles Lakers, currently ranked third in the West!

"What a young OK combination! What a strong Los Angeles Lakers! It's really a good grindstone!"
