Chapter 180 The Nervous Ottoman
Oladipo's speed is very fast. His strong explosive power in the playoffs last year allowed him to even dunk James, and rushed out in the first place, and no one behind him could keep up.

"BANG!" Oladipo's dunk this time was no weaker than Love's in the previous round, and the loud sound shocked everyone.

6-6, the Pacers tied the score.

With the Cavaliers having such a strong start, the Pacers were able to adjust back in a very timely manner. Yun Chen had to admire such a performance.

"Oh... I really didn't expect that you would double-team Osman." Yunchen stood where he was, looking at Oladipo who was staring at him after dunking.

"Li, they seem to have seen through our tactics with me as the transfer center." Osman had understood his situation at this time, and came to Yunchen's side and whispered to Yunchen.

His tone was a little anxious. What Osman was most afraid of was being double-teamed. He didn't have the ability to handle the situation in front of him.

"I know." However, Yun Chen was unmoved at all, as if he didn't care about this situation at all.

"Then how should we fight next?" Osman asked again, he still looked a little nervous, and it could even be said that he was a little overwhelmed.

Yun Chen rubbed his chin, looked at Love who had just walked up behind them, and said, "The tactics remain the same, you are still the one who organizes the offense, you should find a way to pass the ball to Love, we will use him as the offense in this game center."

"Pass it to Love?" Osman frowned. He didn't understand. The Cavaliers' tactics have always been outside and then inside. Now the offense suddenly has to be centered on the inside. He couldn't react.

"That's right." Yun Chen nodded, then stopped talking to Osmando, turned around and started running to prepare for the attack.

The game continued, the Cavaliers attacked, Hill came over with the ball again, and handed the ball to Osman, but before handing over the ball, he gave Yun Chen a questioning look, and Yun Chen nodded at him before he passed it. .

"Crack!" Osman held the ball, and Oladipo and Evans around him double-teamed in an instant, and the speed was faster than the first double-team.

Osman's muscles tensed immediately, he hurriedly glanced at the inside line, and immediately passed the ball, he seemed a little flustered at this moment.

"Crack!" Under the intensity of the playoffs, panic must pay a price. Osman's pass speed was not fast enough, and Bogdavic directly intercepted it.

"Ah!" Osman yelled in fright, his voice trembling.

Speaking of it, although he entered the league as a rookie in 2015 for many years, it is the first time that he has truly participated in the playoffs as the main player of the team, so he is really nervous psychologically.

Bogdavic grabbed the ball and handed it to Evans, who was going down quickly, who scored a one-stop layup.

8-6, the Pacers took the lead.

"Hoo hoo hoo..." Osman stood there gasping for breath as he watched the ball being scored, blinking his eyes non-stop. It could be seen that he was quite nervous.

"Li..." He looked up at Yun Chen who was slowly walking towards him, with a little fear in his eyes.

Yun Chen walked to Osman's side, patted him on the back, and said, "Don't be lazy, stand up and prepare to attack."

He didn't mention anything about the mistake, but just let Osman get ready to attack.

Osman seemed a little surprised when he heard the words. He opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end. He nodded and ran back to prepare to attack.

As soon as Osman left, Le Fu and Hill walked over beside Yunchen.

Hill glanced at Osman's back, frowned and asked: "Lee, Cedi seems really nervous, should we change our tactics? He has already made two mistakes in a row."

As a veteran, he can naturally see Osman's state, and at the same time see all this, as well as Love, who came here to ask tactical questions.

Yun Chen shook his head when he heard the words, and said, "The tactics remain the same, continue to be handed over to the Ottoman organization, we just need to get in position."

"No...no change?" Hill thought he had heard it wrong, so he spoke again to confirm his question.

"That's right, no change." Yun Chen nodded.

The game continued, and the Cavaliers attacked again.

At this time, the state of the two sides turned somewhat reversed. In the opening stage, the Pacers failed to score two consecutive offenses and were counterattacked by the Cavaliers, but now it has become a series of consecutive mistakes by the Cavaliers.

Hill came over with the ball and gave it to Osman for the third time, who organized the attack with the ball.

Oladipo and Evans pushed forward at the same time, still trying to create defensive pressure on Osman.

"..." Yunchen, Hill, Love, and Thompson looked at Osman at the same time, they were all afraid that Osman would make another mistake.

But this time, Osman calmed down a lot. He didn't rush to pass or dribble the ball. Instead, he protected the ball in his arms, and at the same time made eye contact to signal the two insiders to run and catch the ball.

"Hey!" Love immediately understood, and did not hesitate to use Thompson's cover to complete a pick-and-roll in the paint, running out of a not-too-small open space.

"Shua!" Osman saw the opportunity and passed the ball after jumping up. He was very smart and used his height to find the best opportunity to pass the ball.

"Crack!" Love caught the ball and scored it before the defender behind him caught up!

8-8, the two sides returned to the same starting line again.

"Wow!" The audience cheered again, Osman was able to handle the ball well after making two consecutive mistakes, and Osman finally managed to withstand the pressure.

This time, it was the Pacers' turn to be surprised. Osman resolved the double-team very well this time, making their defensive tactics useless.

The game continued and the Pacers attacked.

In this round, Oladipo tried again for a personal breakthrough, breaking through to the basket and giving the ball to Turner. The latter wanted to dunk, but Love's on-coming defense prevented him from scoring.

Yunchen made a rebound and began to counterattack.

When it came to positional battles, the Pacers retreated quickly.

Osman held the ball, and the tension just now was swept away. The fourth time he faced the double-team, he became more calm and unhurriedly gave the ball to Love again. Go in with a hook.

8-10, the Cavaliers overtook the score.

Seeing this scene, Yun Chen smiled.

When Osman made two consecutive mistakes just now, his heart actually became tense. If Osman continues to make mistakes, then many of their tactics will not work.

Just like the Warriors lost Green, their tactics will become rigid.

After all, it is the first time for Osman to play the playoffs as a main force. It is easy to collapse when he is double-teamed soon after he came up. If he reduces his offense at this time, it will be a huge blow to his self-confidence. With such a fast-paced game, it might be very difficult to adjust.

Therefore, Yunchen continued to let Osman hold the ball at the risk of losing the opening score, which was tantamount to making a gamble.

Fortunately, his gamble succeeded, and Osman did not disappoint him, and quickly adjusted his state back.

Next, what they have to do is to establish an advantage enough to win the game in the first half!
