Chapter 395 The decisive moment

After the substitutions, the Eagles immediately relied on their inside advantage to attack. Although Scola tried his best to defend the singles in the inside, he still couldn't stop Horford from attacking. The opponent hit two points easily.As for the Pacers, the offense has come to a standstill because the shooting percentage has begun to decline. Ye Xuan, who was originally very efficient and useful to help his outside teammates find offensive opportunities, suddenly failed. After hitting a mid-range shot, he hit the iron three times in a row, which caused the Eagles to quickly expand the point difference to more than 5 points.

What's more serious is that Ye Xuan, whom the Pacers have been relying on, is heavily guarded by the opponent at this time, and there is no chance to play for a while. This makes Ye Xuan habitually pin his hope of winning this season. In terms of ability, Coach Frank seemed a little at a loss.Fortunately, at this time, Paojiao stepped forward. When the Eagles were about to widen the point difference to 10 points again, a sudden long-range three-pointer forced the Pacers to narrow the point difference to 6 points. .

In the next few rounds, Ye Xuan also found that Pickled Pepper's touch has recovered, and there is still only one Carol marking him, so Ye Xuan decisively started to help Pickled Pepper create an offensive opportunity, and Pickled Pepper did not To live up to Ye Xuan’s expectations, in the next 10 rounds, 8 of the Pacers’ offenses were terminated by pickled peppers, and pickled peppers hit 5 of them very efficiently. The rate is not particularly high, but when the players of the two teams do not feel good, these five goals are enough to change the outcome of a game.

The game continued until there were more than 3 minutes left in the third quarter. At this time, because the Eagles had been focusing on Ye Xuan's defense, they had no time to take care of Pickle, so the Pacers slowly approached Ye Xuan. The 2-point difference narrowed again, and when Coach Frank replaced Ye Xuan to take a rest, the Hawks only had a [-]-point lead.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on the Eagles, they are not saying that they just stand stupidly and let Pickle play unlimited singles, but that when they go to double-team Pickle, Ye Xuan who gets the chance will come out Suddenly using three-pointers and breakthroughs to give the Eagles a good look, the Eagles are more willing to let Carroll single-handedly defend Pickle Pepper than Ye Xuan, who has no solution in singles, at least they can have a little chance to defend the ball.

When Ye Xuan was replaced to take a rest, Pickled Pepper still stayed on the court to lead the substitutes to play. In the first half of this game, Pickled Pepper's playing time was a little shorter, so it shouldn't be a problem to support it a little now, and sure enough In the remaining 3 minutes, although the opponent still let Millsap and Korver grab points on the court, they still failed to reopen the point difference until the end of the third quarter.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Pacers replaced Ye Xuan again. Ye Xuan's physical strength was relatively sufficient at this time. Because of the outbreak of pickled peppers in the third quarter, Ye Xuan played relatively easily. , the physical consumption will naturally be smaller, so he also applied directly off the court to play as soon as the fourth quarter opened, and then played the whole court.

Playing together with Ye Xuan is naturally Solomon Hill, who didn't get much playing time in the third quarter, and Shumpert, who didn't feel particularly good in the first few quarters. The people are Mahinmi and O'Neal, who hasn't played much recently.Jermaine O'Neal has only one mentality now, that is, he can play a championship with the Pacers, and then retire with peace of mind. As for playing time, statistics, and contract renewal, he has never considered these things at all. Jermaine O'Neal is no longer the All-Star insider who can fight against Roaring Tianzun, but Jermaine O'Neal's existence has helped the Pacers' locker room atmosphere to be more harmonious.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the opponent also replaced Millsap, one of the two core players who played the entire third quarter, and replaced it with Horford, another core core who was replaced in advance.But they didn't expect that the Pacers would send O'Neal to play, so their power forward chose Pero Antiche.This gave the Pacers a chance to attack the inside line. After Ye Xuan controlled the ball and came to the frontcourt, he directly passed the ball to O'Neal on the inside. Although O'Neal's body is not as good as before, his strength and skills are still there. Hitting Pero Antiche with the back is a thing that can be knocked away with just two hits. The first singles, a small hook shot, and O'Neal reacted quickly after the basketball hit the iron, and immediately got stuck Position and then take off for the second time and point the ball to the basket again. The basketball turned around and finally fell into the basket.

Jermaine O'Neal succeeded in singles, and the Pacers were still 2 points behind their opponents, but the Pacers' bench seemed to have won the game, frantically shaking the towel on their hands.But looking back, the disadvantage of O'Neal's age has also emerged. His speed is not enough to support him to defend Antiche, causing Antiche to find an open shot from the outside and quickly catch the ball. A long-distance two-pointer can be regarded as a return to the Pacers.

And the Pacers didn't really want O'Neal to attack, so in the second round of offense, Ye Xuan began to control the situation again. After coming to the frontcourt, Ye Xuan called out O'Neal Helped with the pick-and-roll, then used the screen to pass Shelvin Mark in front of him, then accelerated to avoid Antiche, who was rushing to defend, and then continued to take two steps inside, and scored two points with an emergency stop jumper. With Xiao Huangmao's annoying defense to contain Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan has a lot more room to play.

The Eagles served the ball from the backcourt. After receiving the ball, Shelvin Mark was about to turn around and bring the ball to the frontcourt, but he was still too careless. Ye Xuan seized the opportunity and directly broke the basketball in his hand. Horford, who was serving the ball, immediately rushed over to prevent Ye Xuan from dunking directly, but Ye Xuan obviously didn't want to get a two-pointer. After stealing the ball, Ye Xuan not only failed to break through, but retreated with two dribbles under his crotch. Step by step, he adjusted his position to a 45-degree angle outside the left three-point line. Only then did Horford and Shelvin Mark react and wanted to pounce on the block, but it was too late. Ye Xuan easily made the shot The unguarded three-pointer was thrown in, not only successfully smoothing the point difference, but now it has overtaken the opponent by 1 point.
