Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 725 Crushing the Pacers
Bang!
There was a bang, and the Wachovia Center Arena boiled.

Nearly [-] fans cheered in unison, cheering for Qin Hao's fast break dunk.

Several Pacers players could only watch from a distance, and when they realized that Qin Hao was about to go off, it was already too late.With Qin Hao's speed, even if they wanted to catch up, they couldn't catch up. They could only watch Qin Hao complete the tomahawk dunk, scoring two more points for the 76ers, and the score became 5:0.

"Did everyone in the 76ers take their medicine today?"

"Is there any mistake? The game has just started, and they defended so hard, aren't they afraid that they will run out of strength in the fourth quarter?"

On the side of the court, the Pacers rest area.

A group of Pacers substitute players whispered, this is not what they expected, the 76ers don't play their cards according to the routine, and they don't talk about martial arts.

The head coach of the Pacers couldn't help frowning, got up and walked to the sidelines, and shouted to the Pacers players on the court: "It's okay, play steadily, be patient."

Several people nodded and started to attack.

This time the Pacers played very patiently, passed the ball continuously, and played a tactical coordination, but in the end it was given to Granger.

Fortunately, Granger did not disappoint his teammates this time, facing Brand's emergency stop jumper after a breakthrough, the score became 5:2.

But turning around, Qin Hao quickly pushed the ball to the frontcourt. Speights came up with a pick-and-roll, Qin Hao broke through, hit the inside line, attracted the defense and then distributed the ball to Nene, who made a jump shot.
In the next few rounds, Qin Hao played very aggressively. Whether it was defense or offense, it caused the Pacers a headache.

Collison can't defend against Qin Hao at all, but if he helps defend and double-teams, Qin Hao will pass the ball immediately.

And today the other players of the 76ers also played very well.

Once the Pacers help defend or double-team Qin Hao, they will miss others, and Qin Hao can pass the ball out to his teammates and it can be converted into points.

After a few minutes, the Pacers were completely at a disadvantage.

"beep"

The Pacers coach called a timeout, and he glanced at the scoreboard. At this time, the score had become 15:7, and the 76ers led by 8 points.

Several Pacers players looked ashamed and depressed.

Originally, they came today with the hope of winning, and they were determined to win this game, but they didn't know that it was just the first quarter, which was completely different from what they thought.

"Cheer up your spirits." The head coach of the Pacers clapped his hands. "Wait for Collison to step off, and George to step up. Rush, wait for you to defend Qin, defend better, and don't let him break through easily."

"Yes." Rush replied.

Then the coach of the Pacers made some arrangements, and finally said in a deep voice: "The 76ers played very hard today, and we all saw it. So, we must also be serious, understand?"

"clear."

The crowd agreed in unison.

In the previous few minutes, except for Collison who was really at a disadvantage in defending Qin Hao, the other players played well, but the 76ers started too aggressively, which caught the Pacers by surprise. can keep up.

So in addition to replacing Collison, the most important point is that they must improve their offensive and defensive enthusiasm and aggression.

"beep"

The whistle blows and the timeout ends.

The two sides returned to the court. The 76ers did not make any substitutions, and they were still in the starting lineup. Even though they had already led by 8 points, they still had sharp eyes and a threatening momentum.

The Pacers attack and the ball gets to Granger again, but this time he's not as easy to play.

Coach Luke also made some tactical adjustments during the timeout just now, emphasizing the defense against Granger. Granger is the biggest threat to the Pacers, besides Collison.However, it is unlucky for Collison to meet Qin Hao today. The height gap is huge, so he will definitely be embarrassed.

In the past, the reason why Collison performed well was that although the opponents were taller than him, they were usually not as fast as him.

But Qin Hao was faster than him.

At this moment, Collison was replaced, which means that the Pacers lost an offensive strength, so they only need to defend Granger well.

"Damn it." Granger ran into a assisted defense in singles, so he had to split the ball and pass it to Rush. Rush tried it, but it didn't work, so he had no choice but to pass it to George.

George didn't have much time left to hold the ball, so he broke through decisively, rushed to the inside, found a body to confront, and then made a shot.

Swish!
The ball goes in.

The Pacers coach breathed a sigh of relief.

At the transition of offense and defense, Qin Hao came to the frontcourt, Rush rushed forward quickly, Qin Hao frowned, and couldn't help sneering: "Should you guard me instead? The height is not bad, but are you as fast as me?"

Rush is 198 cm tall and serves as a guard and striker. He is the same height as Qin Hao and much taller than Collison, but his speed is much worse.

The next moment, Qin Hao accelerated in a disguised form, restrained his right shoulder from sinking, made a fake move, and then changed direction suddenly, with a very large range and extremely fast speed.

Although Rush is still relatively far away and has enough distance to move laterally, but the speed of lateral movement is too slow.

Whoosh!
The figure flashed, and Rush only felt a blur in front of his eyes. Qin Hao had already rushed past him. Hibbert smiled helplessly, and still had to defend himself.

Qin Hao jumped up and made a throw, but it was actually a pass. He threw the ball to the basket. Nene jumped up and dunked with both hands.

Even with the change, Rush couldn't guard against Qin Hao.

The only thing that comforts the Pacers is that the Pacers' offense is not bad, especially George, a young man, performed very well today and feels hot.

"Snapped!"

"beep!"

Thugs, blow the whistle.

This time it was George's offense again, which caused Speights to foul. George went to the free throw line and made two free throws, but the Pacers were still 9 points behind.

The first quarter is not over yet, and the point difference is approaching ten points.

The head coach of the Pacers called a timeout again, with a serious expression on his face. First he made a substitution, and then said in a deep voice, "It's not enough. It's not enough for us to be serious. We have to work harder."

At the same time, the 76ers also made substitutions.

Qin Hao, Iguodala, and Nenezizi were replaced by Mozkov, Lu Wei, and Holiday.

Halfway through the first quarter, the two sides gradually put in a rotation lineup, and the Pacers further strengthened their defense and became active and aggressive.

But the same goes for the 76ers.

Although the lineup was replaced, every player worked hard, defensively, and offensively, each of them was murderous, and the momentum was shocking.

A few minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and the first quarter was over.

The score has become 31:20, and the 76ers lead by as much as 11 points.

After one quarter of the game, everyone realized that the 76ers are bound to win this game. Everyone can feel that the 76ers today are different from before the All-Star Weekend.
