NBA: Fusion green room, 100% three-pointer

I have to shoot another three-pointer?

Is that human language?

It seems like it will work if I shoot.

Mutombo was confused and replied calmly:"Didn't you tell me not to go over and rest?"

""What the hell? This can go in?"

Reggie Miller was confused.

It was more than a meter away from the three-point line!

This was 2001.

The league was known for its defense.

This was not 2021, the era of three-point rain brought by Curry.

"Ultra-long three-pointer! Allen made another three-pointer!"

"The position of the shot was unexpected even by the Pacers’ defenders.

The commentators were all in disbelief.

The Pacers kicked off again.

Best dribbled the ball across half court.

"Kevin! Switch defense!"

Allen didn't want to be screened again, so he switched defense with another guard and let him be screened.

Sure enough, the ball was in Miller's hands again.

"What? You new guys don't dare to play against me? Let you do it?"

Kevin was nearly 10cm shorter than Miller.

So there was no pick-and-roll. He dribbled the ball between his legs repeatedly, testing Kevin's defensive center.

Suddenly, he sped up.

He made an emergency stop for two points.

Bang!

The basketball was blown directly to the center line and went straight to the backcourt.

Miller was shocked in the air.

He looked at Allen who came out of nowhere.

In fact, Allen had been watching from the side, neither leaving Best's range nor finding an angle to help defend.

Coincidentally, Best just slipped to the bottom corner in the same direction.

This created sufficient conditions for Allen's help defense.

Allen was not idle after landing. He exerted force on his calves and rushed towards the basketball.

Finally, he picked up the basketball at the free throw line.

"This position? Do you want to dunk? Alan!"

"This position is just right, three steps and a slam dunk!"

The commentators all predicted what would happen next.

However, Allen did not dunk.

He dribbled the ball from under the basket to the bottom corner.

Swish!

Another beautiful three-pointer.

41:61!

"Oh my god! He didn't choose a layup that was a 100% hit rate! He chose a three-pointer instead!"

"Another three-pointer! Three out of three! In his eyes, is the three-pointer's hit rate higher than a layup?".

Isaiah Thomas, the head coach of the Pacers, had a serious look on his face.

Although the three-point shot was quite powerful in this era, it was not the mainstream style of play.

Defense and mid-range shots were the mainstream. But a weird type suddenly appeared.

"No! Pause!"

"Beep!"

The Pacers requested a timeout.

Trying to cool down Allen's hot hand.

All players left the court.

"Good job! Ai. Wait, you continue to play"

"Iverson, you go up, Kevin, you go down"

"Mutombo, you can do more pick and roll"

"Iverson, you break through, look for opportunities to shoot or pass the ball"..

Head coach Larry Brown was holding a tactical board and was surrounded by a group of people talking about tactics....On the Pacers side, head coach Isaiah Thomas was spitting

"What's going on? A newcomer can't defend against him?"

"Remember this is the playoffs! Not the regular season! Go hard!"

"And you, Miller!...You come down and take a rest first"

"Austin Croshere, you go in, man to man! Keep a close eye on that Allen! After half court, you go wherever he goes! It's okay to do some hand movements!"

"Play inside around O'Neal! Mutombo is old and can't keep up with the pace.".....

Reggie Miller was still in a daze and didn't care about the coach's arrangement at all.

After arranging the tactics for the week, Isaiah Thomas sat down next to Miller and said earnestly:

"Miller, you have been in the league for almost 14 years. You are no longer the high-spirited young man who just entered the league."

"We have also faced off on the court. You and I both know that trash talk on the court is just one of the skills to win.".....

""Beep!"

The game continues.

The Pacers have the ball.

The Pacers, who came back from the timeout, were like a different team, executing their tactics in an orderly manner.

"New guy! You seem to have made our boss a little autistic!"

"Next, I will keep a close eye on you! Don't even think about shooting a three-pointer over my head!"

Austin Croshere came to Allen and shouted as soon as he came on the court.

He wanted to save face for Reggie Miller!

Allen was not to be outdone and retorted:

"Just you? Even your boss can't defend me! How can you?"

At this time, O'Neal received the ball in the high position.

Mutombo didn't dare to follow too far because his footsteps were not as flexible as O'Neal.

Seeing this, O'Neal raised his hand and shot.

Swish!

The two-pointer went into the net.

Everyone knew that when Miller, the scoring point of the Pacers, left the court, the offense was handed over to the young and strong O'Neal.

This was to fight a war of attrition with Mutombo, who had entered the middle and late stages of his career. If you don't come up to defend me, I will just shoot a mid-range shot.

If you come up to defend me, then you will back up and use your body to consume.

Even if Uncle Mu is good at blocking shots, how much physical strength can you withstand consumption?

The ball was exchanged and the 76ers kicked off.

Iverson went straight to a fast break.

Facing the defensive players, he dribbled repeatedly.

Accelerate!

Stop!

Swish!
