Chapter 190 Two

The Pacers fans uttered their strongest boos, hoping to interfere with Yang Shuai's free throw, but they were obviously disappointed again. Yang Shuai's free throw fell steadily into the basket (Yu Fu Mei Jiao Niang).

At 42:38, the Warriors maintained a 4-point lead, which made the Pacers fans very upset. They thought they could take this opportunity to overtake in one fell swoop, but they didn't expect that after a few rounds, the team still had a 4-point gap.

Pacers coach Jimmy O'Brien started waving his hands on the sidelines to signal the team to be more active in offense and defense. He knew very well that the team was also holding their breath. Overtaking, the two teams may fall into a tug-of-war again.As for the Warriors, although they have lost a main scorer, if they can withstand the Pacers' offensive at this time, their morale will recover, which will be very detrimental to the Pacers.

The ball came into Granger's hands again, and this time Yang Shuai stuck tighter. The two entangled in the middle distance, but Granger couldn't find a suitable opportunity.In desperation, he passed the ball into Jack's hands.Jack dribbled the ball and was ready to break through Hinrich again, but Hinrich's defense was not so easy to break through.

The Pacers' attack ended with Jack's hasty shot. The ball bounced off the backboard and was taken by Randolph.

After receiving the ball, Hinrich advanced very fast. Even this time, Yang Shuai didn't even have time to rush to the frontcourt.

"Beep!" The referee blew the whistle, O'Brien looked a bit ugly on the sidelines, Jack fouled, and Hinrich actually made a shot at the last moment.

With Hinrich making two free throws, the point difference came to 6 points. Seeing this scene, the old Nelson with a dignified face was finally relieved a little. The team had passed the most dangerous period of time.

Compared with the old Nelson, O'Brien is undoubtedly very dissatisfied. He called a timeout hoping to change this situation.To this end, he even sent his entire starting lineup.

The old Nelson also sent his own starting lineup, the incomplete starting lineup, because Jackson must not be able to play, at the position of shooting guard, Belinelli was replaced, replaced by Anthony Morrow.

Granger didn't take the initiative to ask for the ball. Jack had a pick-and-roll with Hibbert on the outside, but was stopped by Hinrich in the middle distance.At this time, Granger started to run non-stop. Granger ran from behind Jack and circled beyond the three-point line. His running not only made Yang Shuai chase after him, but also attracted Hinrich's attention. .

What Hinrich didn't notice was that on the other side, Foster had stepped up to pick and roll, and Jack rushed in at this time.

By the time Hinrich reacted, Jack had rushed inside. Before Landry could make up the defense, Jack threw the ball into the basket with a throw.

"Attack! Press up, speed up!" Old Nelson didn't care that the Warriors had just allowed the Pacers to score a goal. What flashed in his mind was offense, offense, and offense.

"Kirk!" At halftime, Hinrich didn't have a chance to break through directly, so Yang Shuai opened his hand to ask for the ball, and then signaled Landry to come up for the pick-and-roll.

Landry stood to the left, and Granger immediately squeezed towards this side. At this time, Yang Shuai made another trick. He did not break through to the left, but shot to the right with a feint.

Foster, who was behind Landry, reacted fairly quickly. He took a step back and sideways to block Yang Shuai. At this time, Granger, who had reacted, also rushed towards Yang Shuai.Yang Shuai sped forward and didn't let Granger and Foster get caught in the middle. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Landry cutting forward. With a flick of his wrist, he crossed the ball and pushed it over.

"Jeff!" O'Brien shouted Foster's name loudly off the court, and Foster rushed back to defend, but his speed was far behind Landry's, let alone Landry's Already rushed up.

"Bang!" Making full use of his running and jumping ability, Landry evaded Foster's defense and dunked the ball hard into the basket.

"Roar!" Of course, Landry did not forget to yell loudly. The Warriors' bench was full of joy. As the Warriors completed several attacks in succession, their morale was slowly recovering from the low that Jackson was injured and left the field just now. pick up.

It is rare for a energized Warriors player to defend against a 24-second violation by the Pacers on the next possession.But unfortunately, their own attack failed. Yang Shuai's shot was interrupted by Granger and bounced out of the basket, missing the opportunity to continue to widen the point difference.

When the score came to 52:48, there were still 32 seconds left before the end of the second quarter, and the Pacers were still 4 points behind. The wave is higher than the wave, but the point difference cannot be narrowed. When O'Brien glanced at Yang Shuai who was defending Granger on the field, he would always sigh in his heart, "Did this guy take medicine today? "

He scored 3 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds in the first quarter, but after the second quarter, Yang Shuai suddenly opened fire, and now he has scored 11 points.Granger's defense should not be too bad, but in this quarter, Granger's defense was completely useless in front of Yang Shuai. Yang Shuai did everything from breaking through to shooting.

In these 11 points, Granger tried his best to defend almost every ball, but Yang Shuai always seized the opportunity to block the ball, eyes, and face. Whenever Yang Shuai shot, Granger would always He tried his best to interfere, but Yang Shuai's goal again and again told him how futile these interferences were.

What annoyed O'Brien the most was that Yang Shuai scored, but he didn't give up other things.Yang Shuai worked tirelessly on the court to attack and defend. In addition to scoring 11 points, his assists and rebounds did not fall. Looking at his halftime statistics, he scored 14 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds. This is only halftime. .If Yang Shuai continues to play like this, O'Brien's sigh will be deeper, triple-double?

O'Brien put this thought behind him and turned his attention back to the field. He didn't believe that Yang Shuai could maintain such a state for a whole game.

"Be steady, score this ball!" O'Brien yelled towards the field. Even if the Pacers scored the ball, it would still give the Warriors 10 seconds to attack. If the Pacers don't want to end at halftime If the point difference in the end is widened, they must at least ensure that this attack and the next defense have a success.Of course, it would be better if this attack can be completed, because this is the way to take the initiative in your own hands.

Granger didn't take the initiative to come over to attack with the ball. Today, when he faced Yang Shuai's defense, the effect of attacking with the ball was not good.

Seeing that Yang Shuai couldn't be thrown away directly by running, Granger stopped in the middle of the baseline, and then beckoned to Jack for the ball. He also had a set of back shots.

Yang Shuai stood behind Granger. With his current advanced strength, neither of them had an absolute advantage, but Yang Shuai believed that he could stop the opponent's attack with his defensive awareness and skills.

Granger began to bend down slightly. At this time, Yang Shuai began to exert force irregularly to interrupt Granger's offensive rhythm. This move was often used when he was with the Celtics. Pierce, who is still the opponent on the court, this trick works very well (read the full text of the double-faced idol).

Granger who was disturbed really didn't feel well. Being disturbed by Yang Shuai, he didn't have the initiative that an offensive player should have. He was forced to resist Yang Shuai's power again and again.

Feeling that he had fallen into a passive position, Granger gritted his teeth, and no longer cared about Yang Shuai's strength, but actively used his strength to lean back. At this time, Yang Shuai was also exerting his strength, and the strength of the two offset each other.Granger also exerted his strength again immediately, he needed to hold the initiative.

"Pow!" Sensing the resistance behind him, Granger relaxed slightly, and then gathered his strength to lean back again, and then he could turn around and make a jump shot.

"Huh?" At this time, Granger felt that there was no resistance behind him at all, which made his coherent movements after turning around momentarily unnatural, but when he jumped up, he found that there was already a huge body hanging above his head. palm.

"Damn it!" Granger had to add a little bit of recoil to the turnaround jump shot at this time, coupled with the incoherence of the turnaround, his shooting rhythm had been completely disrupted.

"Fast break!" Using his defensive skills to interfere with Granger's shot, Yang Shuai turned around and rushed to the basket, grabbed the rebounding basketball in his hands, and then roared.

"Damn it, stop them!" O'Brien waved his hand slightly annoyed, and then shouted again into the field, the offense has failed, and then they should pin their hopes on defense.

Yang Shuai passed the ball to Hinrich, who was running, and he let go of his footsteps and rushed to the frontcourt. The same was true for other Warriors players.

Just before the three-point line, Yang Shuai received a return pass from Hinrich. After receiving the ball, he feinted a shot to deceive Granger's center of gravity. Yang Shuai immediately took the ball straight to the basket.At this time, the basket is already in chaos. Neither the Warriors' fast-break players nor the Pacers' defensive players can find their positions. Several people keep making physical contact in the interior, but no one is stuck in place (the infinite is too high) Wuxin latest chapter).

Seeing this situation, Yang Shuai gave up his plan to rush directly to the basket, but his speed did not decrease. Granger moved sideways and followed Yang Shuai's side also quickly.

"Squeak!" 18 feet away from the basket, Yang Shuai, who was rushing, stopped with a violent friction sound, and Granger rushed over.

"Oops!" After reacting, Granger slammed on the brakes, forced his weight back, and then rushed towards Yang Shuai. At this time, Yang Shuai was already jumping up and ready to shoot.

"Danny! Guard him!" Maybe it was stimulated by the sidelines, or maybe the forced adjustment of the center of gravity was not fully in place. When Granger rushed over, he found that he seemed to have rushed too hard. There is only one such result, foul!

Granger noticed it, how could Yang Shuai not notice it, just when Granger was about to pounce on him completely, he sent the ball with a flick of his wrist, and the next moment, he felt a hand hit At his wrist, and a figure was hitting him.

fall!Handsome Yang doesn't mind lighting up another fire for Granger at this time, since the opponent has already fouled, he will do it himself so that the referee won't see it.

"Di!" "Shuh!" Two voices sounded almost at the same time, and at the same time, Yang Shuai also fell to the ground.

"**e!" O'Brien stomped his feet heavily on the sidelines. He was accompanied by the boos of nearly 1 Pacers fans. With one second left in halftime, Yang Shuai unexpectedly Make it 2+1?

"Damn it, this guy flopped, Danny didn't touch him at all!" "No foul, Danny didn't foul!"

It's a pity that the referee's eyes are discerning. Granger's actions did not escape their eyes. Amidst the strong boos, Yang Shuai walked to the free throw line and made a steady hit.

55:48, with Yang Shuai's free throw, the Warriors led the Pacers by 7 points after halftime.
