Chapter 391 It's time to grow up(1/2)
The Pistons continued to chase points, and the Pacers' firepower was not interrupted. The score in the first half was 53 to 45.
The Pacers bit the game, and the two sides still had an 8-point difference.
At the beginning of the second half, Hill stood up to Mulin, who performed bravely tonight. The best way to get his opponent to stop performing is to make him run tired on the defensive end.
Hill knew that he only needed to open up the space and could make Mulin break through with just one start, but he chose a more physically consuming back hit.
Although Mulin is old, he is mostly physically employed, unless his opponent is a player assisted by collision, and such players usually have extremely exquisite low-post steps.
Hill's low post is very similar to Jordan because he likes to make a comeback jump shot after continuous back-playing, and his shooting percentage is extremely high, but his pace changes are not as good as the latter.
Mulin could only spend a lot of physical energy to resist his back attack, which was also Hill's purpose.
To consume Mullin, let him do his best on the defensive end, and when the Pacers' offensive round, his shooting will inevitably be affected.
Hill's good abacus did not escape the opponent's observation. What he didn't know was that a defense against him was taking shape.
During the back-attack process, Hill showed that Mullin focused on the bottom line, which was a fatal defensive mistake.
Mulin is not a good defender, and as we all know, Hill was not too prepared for this. He turned around and shook the opponent's center of gravity, carried Mulin's old leg, and forced himself to the penalty area to prepare for a hook.
At that moment, Dale Davis stepped forward and slapped Hill's arm hard.
Mulin also bumped into Hill when he took action.
It is impossible for normal humans to score in this situation, and so is Hill.
They fouled, Hill, who wanted to consume his opponent, was consumed very hard, and his breathing frequency was interrupted, which was only the first round of the second half.
Mo Mengchen saw the changes in him, which was exactly what he was worried about, and the Pacers were targeting Hill crazy.
However, he was not the Pistons' main attack point tonight, at least not in the first half.
——Unless they guessed Frause's strategy in the second half.
Frauses did not give up on Hill. In the second half, he made the decision to let Hill lead the offense, because Devil Mountain scored 4o data on the Pacers in the previous two games.
In this era, you will get such data continuously, which is no different from monsters.
That's the data that Jordan, the Magician, and Big Bird can get. Now he can get it, and it's in the playoffs.
Hill made one of two free throws, 46 to 53.
The Pacers' defense is so directed at Hill, but the offense is not the case. The basketball did not transfer to Mulin, who scored 15 points in the first half.
Mulin kept running, dodging left and right, serving as green leaves for others, and making wedding dresses for teammates. Hill had to follow him. When his opponent created an opportunity to help Miller block Alan Houston, he changed his defense and became a child.
The piston does not resist the change of defense, let alone the change of wings and the change of the outside line.
Hill chased Miller all the time.
Miller can be seen running out of the 45-degree angle three-point line on the left. When he got the ball, Hill was two meters away from him. This distance was enough for him to complete a shot.
Miller raised the ball, extremely irregular, but the personal shot flew out of his palm.
Hill's defense is only one step slower.
"Swish!"
Miller yelled: "This is the gift I offer to you in the second half, let me die, Detroit bastards!"
Hill's face was not very good: "Reggie, no matter what, you said too much."
"What do you want," Miller asked contemptly, "a top student?"
Hill doesn't need to say "give me the ball". Mo Mengchen will give him the ball, and he also needs to see what the guy is in now.
Outside the three-point line, before Hill's attack began, Mullin slowly retreated and opened up the space.
They put on an insulting defense that kept screaming from the whole audience.
Hill got the biggest open space a player could get in the game, Mullin put him three and a half meters and almost stepped into the paint area with one kick.
If it weren't for the fact that the joint defense was not allowed now, he would have done so.
"Submit, top student!"
Miller shouted sarcastically.
Hill could not bear it anymore. Such a defense was a humiliation, and it was for anyone.
Miller's trash words have already ignited his anger. In addition, this defensive and warm senior Duke student, Grant Hill, who has an angel-hearted heart in the name of Duke Blue Devils, was furious and really scored three-pointers from the outside.
Mo Mengchen couldn't see the trajectory of this ball, the arc was very straight and flat, and most of Hill's shots were like this.
His shooting posture is too high and he always relies on his height, wingspan and bounce to make strong shots. Such a shot is suitable for ace one-on-one single challenge and is suitable for mid-range distance, but if he wants to shoot three-pointers, the ball does not rotate enough and is difficult to score.
This may be the reason Hill has been unable to practice three-pointers well, or maybe it is not.
"Bang!"
Anger makes people ugly, Hill's three-pointer bounces out, which is the Pacers' favorite moment, they have to grab the defensive rebound and fight back.
They got defensive rebounds but failed to fight back.
Momonchen approached Mark Jackson and fouled in advance before he moved his thighs and mobilized the muscles in his butt to run.
Mo Mengchen raised his hand and looked at the referee friendly.
Jackson felt that his hands were hot. This was an excessive tactical foul. He was annoyed: "You shameless bastard!"
"Shamelessness is divided into many kinds." Mo Mengchen didn't even look at Jackson. This veteran who had just been fouled by him as a vicious offender now wants to swallow him alive. "If it's from the opponent's evaluation..."
Mo Mengchen finally turned around and smiled like an evil ghost: "Then I can't bear it."
Jackson is the most depressing person on the court except Hill.
Hill was targeted, both offense and defense, while Jackson was targeted so that he only had the function of taking the ball through half the court.
Although Jackson has never been the top figure in the team, and when he was in New York, he also became an All-Star with the influence of the city and the Knicks' fan base, he is a very useful person no matter which team he is in.
He can do many things on both sides of the offense and defense, rather than being a silly porter and a bullied defender.
"mark!"
He heard Mullin ask for the ball.
What can he do? Of course it's passing.
"Poor old guy, you should retire." Mo Mengchen said stunningly, "I'm serious."
Jackson growled: "Shut up your fucking stinky mouth!"
Mulinjiu finally got the ball, and he could do a lot of things with the ball in his hand.
Everyone treats him as a transition station, maybe even Hill thinks so, and he insists on doing something amazing.
God's left hand has not grown old yet.
Mullin flips his wrists and challenges Hill, who has the best defensive team, head-on.
No one was optimistic about his single fight, and Hill, who was angry, even his eyes shone, trying to prevent him from being protected to soothe his injured little heart.
"Young man, talent cannot make you invincible."
After Mulin finished speaking, he stepped forward and suppressed Hill's body instantly.
Hill didn't expect Mulin to attack so decisively. Just as he was thinking of resisting, he saw him skillfully change direction and open up the space.
This little space is too big for God's left hand.
"Swish!"
"Ageless Chris Mullin, he hit a difficult jump shot on Grant Hill's head!"
58 to 46
Miller appeared after Mullin scored his goal, and his purpose was to add fuel to the fire: "Chris, everyone said you are old, but you are not old at all tonight."
"Are you in good condition or is it that someone who is not worthy of your reputation that makes you feel a second spring?" Miller's smear made Hill unbearable.
The top student asked for the ball loudly.
"Your location is not good!" Mo Mengchen shouted.
Hill shouted: "Just give me the ball!"
Seeing Hill standing outside the three-point line, Mo Mengchen could imagine what he would be going on next.
If he is not given it, it may make him lose confidence, or argue with him on the spot, which will make the impact worse and the whole team will be affected.
Considering this, even if he gave up on the union, Mo Mengchen passed the ball out.
Even though he didn't like Hill's decision, he still pulled the space away.
The same goes for others, they all opened up space, only Jerome Williams was ready to go forward to pick-and-roll at any time.
However, Mullin continued to retreat, which was still an insulting defense.
"Submit, top student!"
"Grant, do you dare to vote?"
Then, the audience shouted: "Search!"
