Chapter 474 Referee, someone is harassing here
"Good defense, kid!" Although Wu Sheng was pulled down, he still affirmed Max's strength.

The current timeline is 04, not a few years later, these days, this level of touch can only be regarded as tickling, and a successful defense is considered a good job.

This was just a regular round of offense and defense, but Carlisle of the Pacers seemed to smell something bad.

It was still Livingston passing the ball, and the two sides entered into a positional battle. This does not mean that Billups gave up the position of the main point guard, but that the old Brown wanted Livingston to finish the first quarter as much as possible and familiarize himself with the regular opponents in the future.

In the eyes of Old Brown, the Pistons and Pacers must be rivals for at least three to five years, just like the Spurs and the Lakers at the beginning of the century, and Billups will leave sooner or later. It is estimated that the next contract will replace the new contract and take away the rights to Bird. While he is still here, let Livingston adapt early and seamlessly connect by then, which is good for everyone.

Livingston took possession of the ball and thought it would be Harrington who was defending, but unexpectedly discovered that it was Artest.

I don't know what consideration Artest was in. Anyway, he threw Harrington to play with Max. He showed his idiot face and licked his tongue: "Kid, I will be very gentle."

Fuck, the referee, someone is harassing here, call him a foul!

Livingston was pissed off by Artest's expression, and was a little frightened. He turned around and dribbled the ball in a strange way.

Artest actually wanted to tease Livingston. After all, everyone loves abuse dishes, so the action is a bit loose.

When Harrington was defending Livingston just now, Artest knew what level Livingston was in now, but he didn't expect that what kind of trouble did you suddenly come up with! ?

A wave of offense full of aura allowed the Pistons to score 2 points in an emergency.

And Artest was repeatedly whipped by Harrington's small eyes, which seemed to say: "The opportunity is given to you, you are useless."

This, Artest really can't say anything, after all, Livingston's ball just now was aura, but if he is serious, he can't pass through another engine for Livingston.

With an embarrassed smile, this matter is over, and the Pacers continue to attack.

This time the Pacers still played steadily. Jermaine O'Neal and Crozier played a wave of pick-and-rolls in the middle distance, and then Harrington gave the ball to Jermaine O'Neill, who turned around with a small hook to tie the score.

The two sides are still 2 to 2.

Livingston came outside the Pacers' three-point line for the third time. Well, this time the Pacers defended harder. They didn't even give Livingston a gap, and Artest was very tight. It seemed that they had to save face.

This season, Artest has averaged 20 points per game, and his defensive ability has continued to last year's DPOY level. In this state, if you compare the image with a star with a closer year, it will be a small card when the state is good.

If you exclude Artest's personality problem of being suspended twice and sent off three times since the season, he is completely a top-notch star.

Lin Sa is not on the court, and the Pistons lack stable scoring points.

Livingston and Billups had no chance to shoot, and the offense finally failed under Karl Malone's mid-range shot.

In the Pacers' round, the game gradually entered a state of competition.

According to the current defensive level of the Pistons and Pacers, it is really difficult to score safely. At least not the league's top scorers are completely helpless under such an impregnable wall.

Five minutes into the game, Karl Malone was the player with the most points for the Pistons, scoring 5 points, but this score was based on 6 of 7 shots and 2 free throws. Looking at it this way, it is hard to make people toothache, and the Pacers are not much stronger. Artest now has 2 points in his hand, but he also made 8 shots and made 9 of 5 free throws and added a three-pointer.

As far as Yasuko is concerned, this year's state is indeed surprisingly good.

Even if coach Carlisle hates Taiko's personality, he has to admit that he is now the Pacers' strongest firepower, even surpassing O'Neal. O'Neal appears more in the C position this year, that is, the center position.

If it is a weak inside team, then O'Neal will of course show his power, but when encountering top inside stars such as Ben Wallace, Sharks, Garnett, and Dayao, O'Neal will put more effort on rebound control and back-to-the-basket defense.

Now that the old Miller has retired, the Pacers' biggest outside line this year turned out to be Harrington.

So since it is simply to give up one end, then Carlisle will go to the end of the road and concentrate on letting Artest score points.

O'Neal was dissatisfied with this arrangement, but he would obey the coach's orders.

In the 5th minute, Lin Sa came on the stage, and he couldn't do it anymore if he didn't appear on the stage. Lin Sa was afraid that Taizi would score 20 points in two quarters. Now the level of the inside battle is too high, and Artest's shameless free throws are not as strong as O'Neal.

Artest's condition is surprisingly good, so Lin Sa can only play early, and still use Carter's star card.

Lin Sa wants rewards, but the team's victory is more important than rewards.

In the next few minutes, the scene became Lin Sa's solo performance show. Lin Sa replaced Billups, and Billups had resumed his role as point guard at this time, and Livingston was off the court to rest.

Although Carter is a star card in his rookie season, but with Lin Sa's mid-range shot, Carter's combat effectiveness is absolutely out of bounds. After all, unlike McGrady, Carter is a serious NCAA player.

If only Lin Sa played singles, the rookie Carter would not be able to open up the Pacers. However, when Lin Sa has the rebounds of Da Ben, the wall of Malone, and the passing of Billups, he can completely beat the Pacers to autism!
Artest took the initiative to mark Lin Sa today, but Lin Sa gritted his teeth as soon as he came up, because this despicable guy didn't match up with him in offense at all, and kept calling Malone to play pick-and-rolls. What a fucking dog, people are so old, you have the nerve to make such a fuss! ?

Doesn't conscience ache?

Lin Sa felt that he was being kind, and maybe he could be even more so.

Artest was furiously provoked and hit 4 irons in a row. Lin Sa quickly recovered the lost points. After the first quarter, Artest scored another point with free throws and failed to break through the 1-point mark. Lin Sa scored 10 points in 7 minutes!
Taizi's eyes were green with anger. What was even more irritating was that compared with Artest's continuous strikes, at the last moment of the first quarter, Wu Sheng broke through and scored twice in a row, forcing the Pacers to win the respect. With Wu Sheng's 7 points in a single quarter, the first quarter ended. The Pistons scored 32 to 34 against the Pacers, only 2 points behind!
