The matchup between the Spurs, who have won nine games in a row, and the Pacers, who have won 13 games in a row, was not as evenly matched as imagined.
In the first quarter, the Spurs relied on Duncan and Parker, and in the first half of the second quarter, the Spurs relied on the sixth man Ginobili.
But when the game came to the last five minutes of the second quarter, when Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili all declined, the Spurs could no longer withstand the Pacers' impact.
The second half was almost a repeat of the first half.
After the mid-season adjustment, GDP regained its vitality in the third quarter and led the team to launch a wave of offensive.
But the duration was not long.
The Pacers' rapid offense and defense conversion was simply unbearable for the old guys of the Spurs!
When it came to the decisive moment of the final quarter, when He Feng and Paul George led the team to launch an attack, Duncan and others obviously couldn't keep up.
Moreover, Popovich also intended to control the playing time of veterans such as "GDP". This season, the average playing time of absolute main players such as Duncan and Parker was less than 33 minutes.
Green, Leonard and others are still not up to the task.
Duncan sat on the bench and could only watch the team's disadvantage getting bigger and bigger, quite helpless.
Popovich also shook his head helplessly, he knew that this game could not be saved.
The combination of He Feng and Paul George could not be restricted by the Spurs' front line at all.
Especially He Feng, who had almost no dead angle in attack, could break through and shoot, and did not stick to the ball. He did a great job of running without the ball and could score as soon as he received the ball.
The Spurs' proud defensive system was directly defeated by He Feng!
Popovich couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
The Spurs just lacked a forward player like He Feng who had super scoring ability.
Their nine-game winning streak ended here!
The home fans were full of disappointment. They wanted to see the team beat the Pacers, a young "traffic team", but the result was like this?
The Spurs were behind almost the entire game. How could they look like the first in the West?
No, after losing this game, the first place in the West no longer belongs to them.
Who will end the winning streak of the Pacers and the Spurs first?
The answer is out.
The Pacers' winning streak has reached 14 consecutive wins, continuing to create team history.
And their record has also reached 31 wins and 13 losses, which has successfully surpassed the Knicks and is in second place.
Although the Heat is the first in the East, they do not have a clear advantage.
Five consecutive wins, the Pacers' journey to the West is perfect!
Many fans were shocked by this.
The Grizzlies, Warriors, Lakers, Clippers, and Spurs have not been able to stop the Pacers!
Devil's schedule? It doesn't exist!
So far, the Pacers have played all the games in January.
They have experienced a very dreamy month.
In January, the Pacers have not lost a game!
Among them, there are many strong teams such as the Heat, Knicks, and Spurs that have been defeated.
Today's Pacers have officially entered the ranks of winning the championship.
The results of the All-Star votes have been officially released.
Kobe overtook James at the last moment and was elected the All-Star vote leader with a slight advantage, and James was only 8,000 votes behind.
The super performance in January has made He Feng the "top stream of the league" and his fame has soared rapidly.
But he is young after all, and compared with Kobe and James, two old-fashioned superstars with deep backgrounds, he still has too few basic fans.
At such a young age, it is obviously unrealistic for him to surpass Kobe and James in the All-Star votes without any heavy honors.
However, his All-Star votes ranked third in the overall list, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
And the gap between him and the second-placed James is not big, only more than 6,000 votes behind.
In just over a month, his accumulated popularity can be seen.
Du Xiaoshuai ranked fourth. He, who became famous as a "scoring machine", was suppressed by He Feng in recent times.
He Feng's scoring ability is more explosive than his, and Du Xiaoshuai has a serious sense of crisis in his heart.
The rest of the All-Star starters voted in the West are Paul, Howard, and Griffin.
The "Los Angeles duo" has four All-Star starters, which caused a sensation.
The other three All-Star players in the East are Anthony, Garnett, and Wade.
As for the All-Star reserve list, it will take some time to be released.
"He Feng, I really envy you for being able to play in the All-Star Game, and as a starter!"
Paul George's words were very straightforward, he was really envious.
After all, which player doesn't want to be an All-Star player.
"It's okay, you will have a chance sooner or later!
Maybe this year, the head coaches in the league are very discerning, and your recent performance deserves an All-Star reserve spot.
As for the All-Star starter, maybe next year."
He Feng comforted Paul George.
Indeed, the currentJames and Anthony are still in their prime, and it will be very difficult for Paul George to squeeze them out.
But what if Paul George completes his transformation this year?
Paul George nodded.
He can't rush to be the All-Star starter.
As for the All-Star substitute, the chance is still great.
After all, there are not many forwards in the East who are better than him.
He believes that the head coaches understand basketball.
"By the way, He Feng, why don't you participate in the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest?"
Paul George was a little confused.
As the All-Star Weekend approached, he and He Feng both received invitations to the league's official slam dunk contest.
He lacked the opportunity to be exposed, so he agreed to participate without thinking too much.
How many players became famous from the slam dunk contest, such as Jordan, Kobe, and Carter, he wanted to follow their path!
Two players from the same team participating in the slam dunk contest at the same time is definitely a precedent in the league.
Who would have thought that He Feng would choose to refuse!
He Feng chuckled and said, "Pickled Pepper, stop it! I'm a shooter, not a dunker! I've already participated in the All-Star Three-Point Contest, so forget about the Slam Dunk Contest, after all, I'm not a professional!
The All-Star Slam Dunk Contest stage should be handed over to you!"
Pickled Pepper was stunned when he heard He Feng's answer, and his little head was filled with doubts.
"You always perform violent dunks in the game, and you actually say you're not a dunker? Who would believe it!
He Feng is a dunker who is good at shooting three-pointers!
It's a pity that he doesn't participate in the Slam Dunk Contest.
But it's good this way, I have one less strong competitor.
Three-point contest? It sounds great, too, He Feng, I look forward to you setting a new record!"
Pickled Pepper can already foresee the scene of He Feng's killing in the Three-Point Contest.
After all, He Feng's three-pointers are really terrifying!
9 three-pointers in a single quarter, 15 three-pointers in a single game...
Pickled Pepper has a strong intuition: He Feng will perform miracles in the All-Star Three-Point Contest!
