He just played basketball and became the chosen one.

Ryan's mid-range shooting attribute has increased to 93, which is probably the biggest reward Ryan has received in the reward mission.

He couldn't wait to try what it felt like to do whatever he wanted in the mid-range, but he happened to encounter a team that, in the eyes of the outside world, was not so easy to display their offensive talents.

Indianapolis is a nightmare for all Western Conference teams this season.

The Pacers' winning rate when facing Western Conference teams at home this season is still 100%!

As far as the regular season is concerned, the Indiana Pacers are the only team in the weak Eastern Conference.

Every Western Conference team that comes to the big cornfield will be turned into corn fertilizer and buried forever.

Therefore, for fans of all Western Conference teams, the Pacers are the public enemy.

This 100% home winning rate against Western Conference teams seems to be telling the world: "The overall strength of the Western Conference may be excellent, but the best team is still in the Eastern Conference!"

Given that no Western Conference team has been able to win at Conseco Arena before, most people feel that the Nuggets' trip is tantamount to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

Artest’s big mouth is even more arrogant and domineering:

"To be honest, I really like players like Ryan who dare to fight and fight hard.

Unfortunately, I had to let his star stumble again in Indianapolis.

Hey, there is no way, strong people will always be the bad guys.

But Ryan doesn’t have to worry too much. I’m not as low in emotional intelligence as him, and I’ve defended my opponents 0-for-18.

Whoever came over last time, I just let him score a goal. "

In Artai's words, he breastfed three people at once!

First of all, what is ironic about Artest is that Melo shot 1 of 13 in front of him last time, with a shooting percentage of only 7.7%.

Secondly, he mocked Kidd, who shot 0 for 18.

Then he despised Ryan severely.

You think there is something wrong with his brain, but when it comes to picking up people, he is smarter than anyone else!

Artest's words didn't break Ryan's defense, but they made Angua shut down.

That night, Angua called Ryan:

"Ryan, you don't care if he says that to me!"

Ryan sighed:

"But Guagua, what they said is true, you did only score one right in front of him.

You only scored one goal in one game, how come you are not as good as Ajan? "

"Superficial! You can't just look at the shooting percentage. I almost led the team to win!

You don't have to look at how well I defended that game. I defended Artest and he only scored 18 points with a 36% shooting rate.

Carter is the reason for losing!

He only scored 24 points that day, but if he had scored 11 more points we would have won!

But he didn't do it and it was a waste of my efforts. I was very disappointed! "

Ryan:.

Guagua ah Guagua, you haven’t learned anything good, but your teammate CBA has learned very well!

Don't you feel ashamed when you say this?

No matter how messed up Guagua is, the fact that he is locked up by Artest will not change.

In fact, it's not to blame for Guagua's weakness. So far, no rookie has been able to perform well enough against Artest.

Even Ryan is no exception.

The last time Ryan and Artest met, their performance was also unsatisfactory.

But Ryan felt that the low hit rate last time was more due to his own poor touch.

He actually got rid of Artest's defense many times during the game by running without the ball, but he failed to seize the opportunity when he shot.

Although he has fragments of talent for catching and shooting and open shots, Ryan is not always open and accurate.

There are 82 NBA games, and no one can guarantee that he will be accurate in all 82 games.

No matter men or women, there are always uncomfortable days every month.

Ryan doesn't think Artest's defense is terrible. As long as he feels good this time, there will definitely be no problem.

Artest's defense is indeed very strong, but he is actually not very good at dealing with more flexible positional pitchers. This is Artest's only weakness on the defensive end.

He is best suited to deal with singles wings that rely more on holding the ball, such as Ajan, Anthony, Pierce, etc.

Artest, a tall wing who mainly plays without the ball but has average speed, also likes to defend, such as Durant in the early days.

For players who are fast and good at using screens, Artest often has a hard time defending.

Artest's speed is actually very average. After all, in the NBA LIVE game, his agility is 91, but his speed is only 59.

Therefore, chasing down players who are fast and provide cover will make Artest stretched.

The most typical example is when dealing with Hamilton, Artest never took advantage.

In the 2004 playoffs, the Pacers allowed Hamilton to average 23.7 points per game on nearly 50% shooting. During the game, Artest was forced to use his elbow to limit Hamilton's movement, which shows that Artest's defense against such agile cover players is not very good.

Also in the 2004 playoffs, a strong defensive team like the Pacers allowed rookie Wade to score 21 points on an average of 48.9% shooting per game. Although rookie Wade is not a shooting player without the ball, his screen and acceleration can make Artest, who is of average speed, thrown away by thousands of miles.

Also, in the 2009 playoffs, Roy scored 42 points against Roy, who was agile, good at taking screens, and very good at shooting.

In short, if you are one-on-one with Artest holding the ball, then he will definitely let you know what life is worse than death.

But if he and Artest make some detours, the offense might suddenly become brighter!

As for Ryan, he has a speed attribute of 90 and excellent running skills. He has both confrontation and speed, and is very competitive with Artest in terms of style.

And after receiving Reed's trait reward, Ryan's mid-range shooting attribute has increased to 93!

When Ryan faced Artest for the first time, his mid-range shooting attribute was only 80.

Is this shooting stability the same?

Now Ryan has a mid-range shooting attribute of 93, which means that when catching the ball and shooting, the mid-range shooting attribute will become 98 due to the hot zone bonus!

Then add talent fragments that improve the stability of open positions.

Artest's absolute defense?

Men, as long as they are hard enough, they can successfully break through no matter how tight they are!

Artest's defense is strong, but Ryan, as the player who happens to restrain Artest, must be able to defeat him.

Didn't you see that Dayao would be beaten very badly when he met Oku who was completely inferior to him in terms of overall strength, but his style restrained him.

Ryan's self-confidence is very strong, but the media does not believe that Ryan can break through Artest's defense.

Artest is one of the top three players in DPOY this season.

The Pacers are also a strong defensive team.

Ryan's shooting percentage when playing against strong defensive teams has always been very average.

Although they won against the Nets before, they relied on making the Nets stronger and guarding Kidd, who shot 0 for 18.

Ryan's own shooting percentage isn't that high either.

Facing the Pacers, who have a more terrifying defense this time, many media feel that Ryan's shooting percentage will be very low.

The Indianapolis Post claimed: "Lyan will experience what it's like to be Kobe!"

Under the hype of the media, this game was even promoted as a demonstration of force between the East and the West!

When General Manager Wang Bode was interviewed, he said bluntly:

"The Nuggets did defeat the Eastern Conference champions last season, but IMHO, the Nets simply cannot represent the strength of the Eastern Conference.

We are the only light in the east! "

With this wave of confrontation between the East and the West, the heat of the game instantly exploded.

Ryan is not to be outdone, you are the only ones with a mouth, right? After Artai finished speaking, the big beeping bird said again.

Because he was very confident about defeating Artest, Ryan also spoke in front of the media:

"Ron's defense is nothing special. He can only deal with some inferior guys."

Guagua:? ? ?

Why am I always the one who's hurt! ?

The next day, at Conseco Arena, Pacers fans were looking forward to another big victory for the team.

Moreover, they all wanted to see Ryan, a glamorous star, struggling in the cornfield.

How dare you challenge Artest's defense? You're so stupid!

Traffic is a double-edged sword. The more people like you, the more people hate you.

Even for Jordan back then, there were countless fans hoping that he would overturn, and countless media were frantically digging up dirt on him.

The same goes for Ryan. He is now too famous. He almost became the All-Star vote winner in his first grade. Naturally, while he enjoys cheers and applause, he also has to withstand many malicious looks.

As a basketball player, it's normal to have negative fans.

If a star is not even criticized by anyone, it only means that he is not a star at all.

So when Ryan came in to warm up, he saw many fans in the stands holding up signs.

Most of the content on the signboard is not very friendly to Ryan.

"Protect your pretty face, the rough east is no place for a sissy like you!"

"Strive in the East, the All-Star vote leader in the West!"

"There's only one beast in the NBA, and that's Ron!"

"Kobe Bryant is here! Kobe Bryant is here!"

As soon as Ryan read the content on the sign, everyone from the Pacers walked out of the player tunnel.

O'Neal Jr., Artest, Reggie Miller, Al Harrington, and Rick Carlisle in a suit with hair on his head.

Iron-blooded, defensive, tough, steel. This is the Pacers' peak stage in the 21st century!

In 2004, they unfortunately lost in 6 fierce battles with the champion Pistons. In 2005, they were strong but encountered the Auburn Hills Palace Incident. Although the Pacers have never been able to win the championship due to various things, they have to admit that they are indeed capable of competing for the championship.

It is no accident that this powerful Pacers can achieve a 100% winning rate against Western Conference teams at home.

Seeing him taking the initiative, the fans cheered endlessly.

Wouldn't it be easy for such a rough and tough team to crush a rookie?

But just five minutes after the game started, the sound in the Conseco Arena was at least half as quiet.

Because in the past five minutes, Artest has behaved like a blind man chasing a deer. He ran for a long time while panting, but he couldn't guard against Ryan at all!

He allowed Ryan to score 6 points without a single dribble! 3 out of 3 shots!

Artest was so angry that his veins popped out: "Why are you playing hide and seek with me? Don't run away if you dare!"

Artest was really pissed off. As a defender who likes frontal hard work, Ryan's "dodge and block" style of play gave Artest the feeling that he "can't do anything with all his strength".

Every time it feels like you are about to catch up with him, he runs away and gets out of the way again.

Every time it feels like you are about to catch up with him, he takes a cover and gets another chance.

And after only playing for five minutes, Artest was already sweating profusely.

This is the most disgusting thing about defending an off-ball attacker. Even if he doesn't catch the ball at all this round, he can still wear you down.

Pacers fans feel that something is not right about the situation. It stands to reason that in most games, the Pacers will keep the opponent's shooting percentage very low.

Whether they are opposing stars or role players, all are equal before the Pacers' defense.

The Pacers' defensive style of play not only tortured the audience to death, but even the Pacers players themselves were disgusted by themselves.

Pacers point guard Jamal Tinsley even ridiculed his team: "Dr. Naismith would have to lift the coffin if he knew how basketball was played by us."

Therefore, except for the Indianapolis home fans, other fans will not be able to enjoy the Pacers game at all.

The NBA games in the 2003-04 season are completely two extremes from the small ball era.

It was too easy to score goals in the small ball era, but it was really hard to score a goal in the 2003-04 season.

The Pacers are the team that is best at preventing others from scoring in this era where scoring goals is hard.

But Ryan shot 3-for-3 from the start!

This surprised Pacers fans.

In this venue that advocates muscular confrontation, few people can score points so effortlessly and elegantly.

Ryan didn't brag about it. This time, after his hand felt normal, he really had Artest under control.

It's not difficult to get rid of Artest. As long as you don't miss, it's very easy to score!

Carlisle really had no other choice, so he chose to flank Ryan.

And instead of waiting for Ryan to hold the ball and then flanking, he immediately flanked Ryan the moment he ran out of position, directly restricting Ryan from catching the ball!

But the decision to flank Ryan gave Wash Leonard in the second position a lot of opportunities.

After the defense tilted towards Ryan, Leonard naturally faced much less marking pressure.

Many times, Reggie Miller would rather leave Leonard short than go against Ryan with Artest.

So in the second quarter, Leonard made 3 of 5 three-pointers, and the Pacers still couldn't get any advantage!

Ryan was not only accurate this time, he even led his teammates!

Seeing Ryan's performance so well, Bird in the luxury private room was a little sour.

Are all the stars of the teams at the end of the Western Conference playoff sequence already that strong?

Although Ryan is not a ball-holding player, even if he is not holding the ball, he is already forcing the Pacers to change their defense!

The magnet effect brought about by Ryan, an off-ball pitcher, is simply a two-point version of Ku's gravity! He could just make a fake move to catch the ball and attract two defenders, causing Miller to give up his matchup!

With Ryan involved, the Pacers' originally tight defense began to become less robust.

Seeing that the Nuggets were going to bloom more, Carlisle finally decided.

Let Artest defend alone!

In this way, Artest went back to defend Ryan alone in the second half.

But Carlisle felt that Artest seemed to have weakened, making it easier for Ryan to score on the defensive end!

In the first half, Artest was a very physical Artest, and he could still bite Ryan with his ruthlessness.

But in the second half, Artest was beaten to the point where he only had half his life left.

He couldn't keep up with Ryan, and now he couldn't interfere with Ryan's shooting.

Anyone familiar with Hamilton's games knows that his big outbursts often begin in the second half.

Because even if he didn't score in the first half, his running was consuming the opponent's energy.

After the opponent could no longer bite him in the second half, he started to output wildly.

The same is true for Ryan. Kobe Bryant didn't collapse until the end of the fourth quarter.

But most people are not as physically fit as Kobe, and they often collapse in the third quarter!

So in the second half, Ryan made various jump shots around the screen, leaving Artest and Carlisle staring blankly.

Ryan's scores are also rising like crazy.

And, you won’t miss it at all!

Ryan hasn't missed a single shot since the start of the second half!

His catch-and-shoot ratio increased to 98, and the effect of his talent fragments to improve open space stability began to show!

Throughout the third quarter, Ryan shuttled through the crowd, catching the ball and shooting. He scored 12 points on 6-for-6 shooting.

At this point, the game has scored 31 points!

The Pacers are also behind by 12 points, double digits!

After the third quarter, the on-site commentator couldn't help but complain: "What is Artest doing? He is simply asking Ryan to practice shooting!"

Pacers fans who were originally looking forward to the Western Conference star being crushed in the big cornfield now felt that the gain was not worth the loss.

If this continues, not only will the performances of Western Conference stars be unstoppable, but the Pacers' unbeaten record against Western Conference teams at home this season will most likely be broken by Ryan!

Reggie Miller was in a daze when he looked at Ryan, who was killing him indiscriminately in the third quarter.

He defends fiercely, relies on off-ball offense to kill people, has a bad mouth and a tough style.

Ryan stole my template?

In the fourth quarter, Artest ran out of patience on defense.

Damn, it's like a loach, it's impossible to catch it, it's a hammer!

He decided to fight fire with fire!

Let me use my terrifying attack to defeat your fragile defense!

So as soon as the fourth quarter came up, Artest was ready to single out Ryan with the ball.

Reggie Miller and O'Brien got the opportunity and raised their hands to ask for the ball, but Artest ignored it at all.

He looked at Ryan and kept chattering: "Real men always look from the front!"

After saying that, Artest suddenly broke through. But after taking a step, he immediately pulled his hips back and took a step back.

How can I, the owner of the cornfield, let you do whatever you want here?

Look at my step-back jumper!

As a result, in the next second, Artest pulled his crotch back and knocked the ball into his inner thigh, failing to be cool. After the basketball bounced onto Artest's lap, it flew directly into Ryan's arms.

Ryan didn't make a move and got a steal for nothing!

At that moment, O'Neal really wanted to slap Artest in the face.

Don't worry, you won't knock out his brains, because his brain is completely empty!

The moment Ryan got the basketball, his mind was confused.

Because Artest was also wearing No. 23 during this period, and Artest's dribbling was quite a bit like Artest's ugliness. So at that moment, Ryan felt like he was cheating.

Artest's wave of fighting fire with fire is indeed very poisonous, so poisonous that the Pacers can hardly bear it anymore!

Fortunately, the Pacers had a strong sense of retreat and did not allow the Nuggets to counterattack.

But in positional warfare

"Ryan scored again! God, 7-for-7 in the second half! 33 points in a single game!

Is Ron Artest really the top three DPOY? He doesn't even look as good as Kobe!

No, not as good as James! "

This was right, and Zhan Mi didn't know whether to be happy or angry for a moment.

Ryan's shooting percentage in the second half made even the perverted Bird feel perverted.

The stability is really terrible!

As long as his mid-range shot is given a chance, the result seems to be destined.

Artest was miserable enough, but Ryan didn't give up.

Looking at Artest, who was already exhausted, Ryan raised his fingers at him:

"Ron, you're not asking me to tell you where I'm going to shoot next, are you?

Come on, I really don’t want to insult you like that! "

Artest, who threatened before the game, "I will let Ryan score one," was immediately turned into a dog.

Ryan, who can raise his eyebrows with his stick and slide a bulldog with his hands, is the number one beast control master in the league!

However, Artest still has a strong fighting spirit. Although he was killed by Ryan, he still slapped the floor angrily:

"Shut up, rookie! This is your last goal today!"

Then

"Ryan, caught the ball at a zero-degree angle and hit a mid-range shot. He hit 8 of 8 in the second half, 35 points!"

"Artest was still a step too slow when shooting a jumper from the top of the free throw line. His speed couldn't compete with Ryan at all, and he couldn't guard against such a flexible off-ball scorer.

Enter again! 9 of 9 in the second half, 37 points! "

"It's 45° on the right side. The basketball hit the front of the rim and bounced up. Will I miss it?

Falling into the basket!

Ryan made 10 of 10 shots in the second half! 16 of 22 in the game, a shooting percentage of .72.2%!

He actually scored 39 points on Artest's head with a super center shooting rate!

Moreover, the Pacers' unbeaten home record is about to be broken!

There were only 55 seconds left in the game and they were still 13 points behind!

The Pacers have no chance!

Ryan is about to become the first Western player to conquer Conseco Arena this season! "

At this time, another piece of data was received on the computer screen of the on-site commentator.

After seeing this data, the commentator's knees went weak:

"It is worth mentioning that.

Ryan's dribbling count so far in today's game is 0!

Ryan scored 39 points without dribbling even once throughout the game!

The real top assassin kills people invisible like this!

Ryan's mid-range shooting without the ball has reached the point of perfection! "

Carlisle looked at Ryan's ridiculously stable shooting and shook his head helplessly.

This year's West is full of monsters!

But don't be too complacent, Western Conference teams.

Based on the current winning rate calculation, Carlisle believes that the Nuggets' ranking in this year's regular season will not be particularly high.

This also means that the first team to suffer from Ryan in the playoffs will be a high-ranking Western Conference team!

Sooner or later you will experience our despair!

In the last 55 seconds, Reggie Miller's three-pointer narrowed the difference to 10 points.

But nothing can be changed.

97 to 87, the Pacers defeated the indestructible Conseco Arena with Ryan's 39 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, and a shooting percentage of 72%!

The Reebok team is already building momentum like crazy, and Ryan's game that breaks the myth of being undefeated will definitely take his popularity to the next level!

After the game, Ryan looked at his hands and his shooting percentage that was even higher than that of a center and couldn't help but laugh.

90 speed, 93 mid-range shooting, 92 stamina, plus Angua’s catch-and-shoot talent fragments and open shooting talent fragments, as well as West’s shooting package.

39 points, it’s so easy! The feeling of killing without the ball is so pleasant!

At the post-game press conference, reporters asked Bird to comment on Ryan.

Bird shrugged helplessly:

“We tried many methods today, but we just couldn’t guard him, we really couldn’t.

Ryan's shooting is probably 70%, or at most 80%, as good as mine. "

Bird pretended to be happy at first, but soon became serious again:

"To be honest, Ryan is indeed qualified to be the All-Star vote winner.

To score 39 points without a single dribble in the entire game was simply horrific.

Although Ryan is a rookie,

He is also already the best off-ball scorer in the league!

Is it reasonable for the league's best off-ball scorer to be elected as the All-Star vote winner? "

The next day, the title "the league's strongest off-ball scorer" began to circulate.

This was not blown by any reporter, but given by Bird!

Therefore, the persuasiveness among the fan base is very strong.

And Ryan's number of votes is growing crazily because of breaking the Pacers' unbeaten home record and the affirmation from Bird.

Carter's position became increasingly unstable.
