Chapter 622 Is it so awkward?
There are 2 Chinese games in 5 preseason games.
The teams invited to play in China are Pacers, Timberwolves and Red Teams with Chinese players. Originally, the Magic also had the opportunity to come to China, but the China game that was set in advance would be played in two games, so the Magic, which Wang Zhizhi, who is relatively the least popular, became the target of neglect.
Losing to the Timberwolves in the first preseason game gave the Pacers a bad start.
From the Chinese match to the regular preseason going back to the United States, the Pacers won 2 wins and 3 losses in 5 games, and were in poor condition.
"After watching the Pacers' preseason, I'll lower their prospects from first to fourth. They're not as good as the Suns in the West, nor as good as the Cavaliers and Celtics in the East."
"Jermaine O'Neal's physical condition is worrying, he is not as good as he has been."
"The space problem is still their top priority. After Wang Zhizhi joined the magic, they lacked a combination that could change their playing style at critical moments."
"How to schedule the playing time for Ron Artest and Danny Granger will be the Pacers' top priority."
"Danny can solve the Pacers' space problem, and Ron can strengthen the Pacers' perimeter defense. What these two people have in common is that they are unwilling to play as a substitute."
"Arthur is still the number one player in the league, but it is difficult to lead this team that is too proud and has many problems. And his style of playing is not as good as Michael Jordan in 1998."
The date of Kirilenko's comeback is uncertain, O'Neal Jr. has a non-injury decline, Artest and Granger have the same competitive relationship. Granger is a young man, and he is eager to be the main force and does not want to accept the arrangement of a substitute. With the substitute lineup, the Pacers are no longer as thick as they used to be.
They used to have an enviable lineup depth, but now, with the starting side, their substitute lineup consists of Granger, Foster, Brachi, Sun Yue, Vujasic and others.
These people have a distinctive characteristic, which is that they lack a Ginobili-like commander.
October 31
In the opening match of the 2007-2008 season, the Pacers were one of the teams participating in the opening match.
They are relatively lucky that as the defending champions, they can play the first game of the new season at home.
Their opener opponent is the Miami Heat, a strong team that is neither up nor down.
The combination of Arenas and Michael Reed is enough to guarantee the quota of the playoffs, but it is not able to reach a higher level.
Fans' third championship flag in team history is raised to the ceiling.
The player received a ring from David Stern and looked perfect.
Every team that witnesses such a ceremony at the opponent's home court will have a strong desire to break the scene.
It was precisely this attitude that the Heat had both thought about it.
Xie Hou said to his teammates: "It may not be a good night tonight."
Papalucas asked: "When is it better?"
This is the truth. The Eastern Conference champion has never been a good time. Any strange tricks and evil photos of the Eastern Conference that advocate physical contact will be directed at the strong teams in the same division.
There was a lack of a scenery in the audience.
Xuewei usually comes to the scene to help Xie Hou when he has time. Her every move is like the signal of "500 knives and axes ambushing outside the account". Members of the English club will follow her reaction and cheer loudly.
The main reason why Bankers Life Stadium became the home court of the devil is that these people are the main factor.
Now Xuewei is pregnant and it is not convenient to watch football on site, so the scenery has disappeared.
Xuewei guaranteed that the atmosphere on the scene would not be worse than in the past, and they had brand new organizers.
At the beginning of the game, O'Neal Jr. succeeded strongly.
It seems that the obvious weight gain has little effect on his bounce.
Kirilenko has not returned yet, and the third-year player Brachi is the starter at the same time as Xiao O.
After Wang Zhizhi left, he successfully became a stable rotation player. It was said that he practiced three-pointers in the offseason, which was very powerful to replace Wang Zhizhi's original tactical position.
In order to prove that he did practice three-pointers, the Pacers' first attack in the new season, Brage made a three-pointer.
He should have shot, but the Heat's defense lacked respect for him and actually put it for two meters.
No matter what kind of humiliation it is, the most powerful way to fight back is always when others think you can't do it, and you prove that you can do it.
"Bang!"
Blachi's answer is that he can't do it yet.
Arenas won the long rebound and pushed the counterattack fiercely. Although the Pacers retreated quickly, there were not many ways to face his impact-type counterattack that crushed inward.
The general counterattacked vigorously and won the first point of the Heat's new season.
2 to 0
"Gilbert is a person who cannot be underestimated. He scored 60 points on Kobe's head in the away game last season," Leonard introduced it to the fans.
Such an introduction method will undoubtedly make some fans who don’t understand football feel panic - Oh my God, is it so powerful?!
McGuinness’s mission is to eliminate such unnecessary panic: “We don’t have to show weakness to the enemy, we just scored 60 points on Kobe’s head, and Arthur did it too!”
And it's not just 60 points, it's 77 points.
Arenas started the counterattack, but the Pacers showed a lack of the momentum of defending the champion.
In the first home game, they should have achieved their best level, but they could not be dead at the beginning, and they really embarrassed the title of champion.
O'Neal Jr. hit the back but failed.
Blachi grabbed the offensive rebound, and a three-pointer made his offensive confidence so small that he didn't dare to play the second offense. He passed the outside line and Artest's three-pointer still missed.
Papalucas made a tactical foul and the Heat's second round counterattack failed to get up.
The Heat's two guns fired continuously.
Arenas' counterattack took a good start, followed by Reid's three-pointer from the left.
5 to 0
"Don't be nervous, score one goal first!"
Xie Hou shouted, O'Neal Jr. went online to pick-and-roll, Xie Hou passed the ball, and then used the cover of his teammates to turn into the low post that belonged to the inside.
Such tactics have natural flaws.
O'Neal Jr. does not have the threat of shooting outside the free throw line. Xie Hou took the ball in the low post, so the Heat's double-teams can be unscrupulous.
The Heat didn't double-team because Xie Hou was not against the little defenders who would be beaten back to the hotel for nightmares by him, but Udunis Haslem.
This person's 206-centimeter naked foot is a undrafted inside player, so it goes without saying how hard he is.
Blue-collar workers are the most common, cheapest and most substitutable type of players in the league. They can gain the trust of the coach and the attention of Riley because of their courage to fight head-on with anyone.
If Xie Hou’s back hit is used on his body, the effect will definitely not be as good as the defender.
The Greek ball was hung in. Xie Hou did not look at the position, and took the ball, slowly putting pressure on his back. Haslem expected that he would do this, and his body was ready to fight.
As a result, what Haslem waited for was not a confrontation, but a beautiful turn around and slipped into the bottom line.
The brave undrafted look at King Arthur's back, as if the classic ghost beast - the boss Huang He ran away with his sister-in-law - Xie Hou's pace was so fast that Haslem could not react. In the blink of an eye, the ball was dunked heavily into the basket.
Beep!
When the whistle sounded, Xie Hou also said that Haslem had been blown away. Unexpectedly, the referee refused to give face and signaled Xie Hou to step out of bounds, and the dunk was invalid.
The scene first started to boo like a typhoon, and then the large screen in the stadium confirmed the referee's correctness.
Xie Hou's out of bounds was so obvious that even the English community stopped complaining, that was indeed out of bounds.
The Heat's coach, Pat Riley, who has been wearing a black suit and a big back and grease-head for decades, fell silent after Xie Hou made this step.
Judging from the fluency of Xie Hou's steps just now, it doesn't seem like it was done by chance.
He had definitely gone through some hard practice before he dared to make such a step on the court.
A Xie Hou with steps is terrible, or a Xie Hou who has to beat the defender to doubt life as long as he plays his back? The answer is of course a Xie Hou who has steps is the most terrible, who can beat the defender to doubt life as he can beat the defender to doubt life at any time.
It is indeed Xie Hou's unique ability to beat the defender to doubt his life, but if his unique height of 204 cm is only effective in attacking from behind, it will really disappoint God's talent given him.
The steps show that Xie Hou is attacking a person with a back-on attack without distinguishing meat and vegetables, and who will eat who will have an all-round dislocation attack on the development of nuclear weapons.
He used to just hold the ball one-on-one and could ignore the opponent's misplaced position. Now, if his steps are successful, he can also achieve the power of holding the ball from the outside.
How terrible is this to be a person who is so strong that he cannot see the limit and is still strengthening?
Riley's heart was cold. Arenas made a strong attack on the offensive end, and his quick stop was changed behind him and his quick stop was swung past Papalucas's jump shot hit the board, giving him some comfort.
7 to 0
"Even though the Heat are so much ahead, I'm not worried about the Pacers at all."
"Because there is nothing to worry about, someone will break the deadlock for them right away."
Yes, the Pacers have the league's number one star and cannot encounter a long scoring drought.
Xie Hou advanced from the backcourt and arrived in the frontcourt. He changed direction and flew away a triple-double genius Ricky Davis, making a breakthrough and strong.
The Heat's defense line was partially contracted, and Xie Hou had a one-handed back to the outside line.
The Greeks caught the ball and made a three-pointer.
3 to 7
Veteran Mo Ning is in charge of position behind his back, and he is no longer the super insider who is good at each other with the Sharks.
O'Neal Jr. was confident in defending alone. Mo Ning's single-handed ability would not be outstanding at his peak, otherwise the Heat at its peak would not have been defeated repeatedly by the Knicks who aged with Ewing. The peak would not be good, let alone now? O'O seemed to prove that the fatty meat that grew in the summer was not of use at all, so Mo Ning made a sensational turnover and jump shot.
The ball flew above the rebound and finally fell from the highest point to the outside boundary.
Just that? Xiao Ao hummed lightly. With the three crowns in his hand, he was as confident as fat as fat.
Chapter completed!
