Basketball Legends: Strikers Are King

"Danny!"

"Danny!"

Even if it is an away game, after hearing the news of Granger's comeback, Pacers fans are willing to fly thousands of miles to cheer for Granger.

“Thank you everyone!”

After Granger finished his warm-up, he waved to the fans around him and walked to the bench.

"Brothers, you must go all out for today's game. I will be with you off the court!"

Granger said to his teammates,

"Of course, what is different from before is that I will play at some point and really fight alongside you!"

He is worthy of being the man who led the Pacers out of their trough. With just a few words, he added countless energy to his teammates.

Granger extended his hand and put it with his teammates, just like he did in last year's playoffs, and then they shouted in unison:

“Solidarity!”

The starting five took to the court under the guidance of the coach.

"Come on, come on, Paul!"

"Don't worry, Boss Danny!"

After Granger cheered for his little brother, he sat back on the bench.

Since he had just returned, Vogel limited his playing time, so Granger could only wait for the coach's call.

"Dudududu!"

The referee blew the whistle to start the game and then threw the ball into the air.

The two teams had played a game before, and the familiarity with their opponents was still there. Hibbert jumped suddenly and grabbed the ball. Then he broke through quickly, caught the ball inside and caused Monroe's foul, and went to the free throw line.

.

"Nitrogen Tomb!"

Monroe raised his hand and took the foul.

Seeing his opponent's depressed expression, Hibbert felt secretly happy.

Is this what they were thinking when they were playing tricks on me?

It’s so cool!

Hibbert actually found a sense of superiority in front of his fellow students at Georgetown University.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

He made two free throws and opened the scoring for the team.

Then he blocked Monroe's attack head-on, which made him look embarrassed.

The afterglow of the victory over the opponent in the previous game is still there. Although Qi Tian and George made a strong effort, Qi Tian sent out steals and protected rebounds. Hill and Hibbert scored 6 points in a row, and the Pacers got off to a dream start.

"Walk!"

George received a pass from West and wanted to show off in front of Granger, so he directly used a difficult turnaround and fadeaway jumper to complete the attack.

"10-0."

"Too strong!"

The Pacers fans who came to the scene shouted loudly. The big victory in the last game had given them absolute confidence. They were even more happy to see the team continue the intensity of the game.

It's just that being too eager to perform doesn't seem to be a good thing. George made consecutive mistakes after that. Fortunately, the Pistons' offense was just that, and they still maintained the point difference.

"Substitute!"

After Qi Tian made a mistake, Starkey fouled West and went to the free throw line. Vogel quickly took advantage of the opportunity and replaced Qi Tian, ​​West and others.

"Danny!"

"Danny!"

You can tell by the shouts of the fans that Granger is on the stage.

"Well played!"

Granger stuffed his shirt into his shorts and said to Qi Tian,

"Be more decisive when attacking!"

Then he patted Qi Tian on the shoulder and walked onto the field.

"Thank you, Boss Danny!"

Qi Tian recovered quickly, glanced at Granger gratefully, and sat back on the bench.

"Brothers, keep your pace and take your time!"

Granger's return not only reshaped the team's spirit, but also the team's spirit. The players who were initially discouraged by being chased by their opponents cheered up and waited for their opponents' free throws.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Stuckey made two free throws to help the Pistons chase the point.

"10-5."

"Ian!"

Granger returned, and George regained his sanity. He broke through and passed the ball to Mahinmi under the basket, who scored a layup.

"12-5."

"Give me!"

Monroe is the hope of the Pistons. If he stands under the basket and asks for the ball, he will naturally succeed.

But George passed by, completed the steal, and handed it to teammate Hansbrough.

"Dudu!"

Hansbrough was about to catch the ball when his hand slipped and the basketball flew out.

"you……"

George was about to get angry, but was interrupted by Granger:

"Paul, don't worry, it's my problem. I didn't go over to catch the ball just now, but next, we have to attack!"

After comforting George, Granger nodded to Hansbrough and started to defend.

"It's better to be boss Danny."

Hansbrough sighed.

Although George and Qi Tian provided Granger's offensive firepower, Hansbrough could feel that there were some awkward changes in the team's spirit.

For example, every offense should be perfect, but players are still human after all, and no one can avoid making mistakes.

The frustration of the team's coaches and players for letting mistakes accumulate, and the atmosphere will inevitably be very dull until the end of the game.

Under high pressure, some people can indeed display stronger strength, but...

Not everyone can get used to a high-pressure environment. Hansbrough feels that the atmosphere after Danny Boss's return is very good, relaxed and stress-free, and he can always get praise from Danny Boss.

Monroe attacked again inside, and this time Granger quickly rushed in and blocked the opponent's shot.

Monroe grabbed an offensive rebound, but his shot was interfered by Mahinmi, and he hit the ball again.

Mahinmi protected the rebound and handed it to George.

George was about to pass to Granger, but was interfered by Singler who suddenly appeared, and the basketball flew out of the baseline during the scramble.

The Pistons took this opportunity to score again.

"12-7."

"Give me!"

Granger finally stood up, caught the ball and prepared to beat his opponent in singles.

It was still his signature change of direction breakthrough followed by a pull-up jump shot, but Singler followed closely and jumped to interfere with Granger's shot.

"clang!"

The basketball was in trouble, but Hansbrough grabbed the offensive rebound and assisted Hill to score.

"We have to hold on steady!"

Stucky reached the top of the arc with the ball, and the Pacers' offense was a bit sluggish. This was a good opportunity for them to counterattack.

He dribbled the ball quickly and prepared to break through, but George stretched out his long arm again and completed the steal for the second time!

"Quick attack!"

Granger glared at George and signaled for him to dunk on a fast break.

But after such a delay, Singler rushed back and prevented George's layup.

"clang!"

The basketball hit the basket and bounced out. A figure jumped up from the side, caught the flying basketball, and dunked it in. It was Hansbrough!

"16-7."

"nice shot!"

Granger happily high-fived Hansbrough and encouraged him,

"The next fight is like this!"

The Pacers immediately retreated actively, preparing to defend. Where no teammates could see, Granger frowned slightly and quietly stretched his left leg.

My knee is still aching.

"It's okay, this should only be temporary!"

Granger comforted himself and then devoted himself to the defense.
