Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth

The seventh game of the New York team attracted some attention, and they met the Indiana Pacers.

The reason why this game attracted attention is also very simple. The Pacers after six games are now ranked third in the East!

This is something that many fans did not expect!

Although the east is strong and the west is weak, this is only a relative point. After all, the vanguard in the east is also at the top level in the west.

It can be said that it’s easy for a team from the West to come to the East and want to get into the top eight. Anyway, the eighth record in the East every year is similar to the tenth and eleventh in the West. There are only 15 goals in a division. Team.

But the problem is, it's not that simple for these teams to come to the East and want to hold home court advantage!

Take a look at the top teams in the East this year!

Needless to say, the New York Knicks, last season's championship, led by Yi Jianlian, who is a man who is in the middle of the game, are now the only two undefeated teams in the league.

This proves that this season, they are still fierce.

Under them, there is also the Bulls with the best record in the league last season. They have only lost one game this season. Obviously, the Windy City has risen, at least in the regular season.

In addition, the East has the "Big Three" Heat, in addition to the Magic led by Anthony and Howard, and the Celtics.

Want to rush into the sky in these teams, the difficulty can be imagined.

Even those teams in the West, want to reach the top four, I am afraid it is not a simple matter!

For this reason, the Pacers can temporarily rank sixth in the new season, which is something that many people did not expect!

Every year in the NBA, there will be a dark horse team, and the Pacers are obviously the dark horses that came out in the 2011~2012 season.

From the overall situation of the current league, the Pacers are also the only dark polo team. The other teams in the league are not much different from last season. The weak ones are still thinking about how to be bad, while the strong ones continue. Strong!

…

The Pacers were also one of the strong teams in the league at the beginning of the 21st century. It is a pity that the Auburn Hills incident caused the team to be silent. The Pacers of that year seemed to many people to be able to hit the championship. It is a pity that The accident made everything disappear, Reggie Miller also regretted retiring after this game and became another uncrowned king of the "Jordan era".

After that, the Pacers entered a full-court rebuild, and after Larry Bird became president, the team began to improve.

They selected Leonard with the 15th pick this summer, then traded the latter to the Spurs in exchange for George Hill.

Judging from the results, the Pacers obviously did not realize what they missed, but from the point of view, the deal is worth it!

At least in many media articles, the beneficiary of this deal is the Pacers, not the Spurs.

From Yi Jianlian’s point of view, whether this deal is present or in the future, the Pacers may only benefit from this trade. There are many reasons. An important reason is that Leonard and Paul George’s early play and functionality overlap. Yes, although the two people joined forces behind.

But in the first three years when it is very important for growth, if you are in the same team, the result will inevitably influence each other. It is better to have a mature guard to help the team.

Another reason is that the Pacers are not the Spurs. Popovich and his coaching staff are unique in cultivating new players. Leonard may not be able to grow on other teams. At this stage, it seems that if Kobe had played a full career with the Hornets, his influence would not have been so great.

It is impossible for the Pacers' management and coaching staff to have such patience with Leonard!

After all, Leonard really made his name in the 2014 Finals, whether it was deliberately concealed or accidentally caused, but before the start of the playoffs that year, the entire league was basically forgotten." "Leonard", the 15th show in the 2011~2012 season, suddenly looked back and found that this guy has grown to such a point.

This is also the reason why the Pacers won't lose money.

Another small reason is that the Pacers lineup may not wait for Leonard to grow up, and everything that should be bought will be sold out!

After all, "Black Yao Ming" Roy Hibbert is the biggest victim of the "small ball era"!

While the Golden State Warriors quietly selected Klay Thompson in the draft this summer, the backcourt combination of the "five small lineups" is already in place.

Since the "Five Smalls" fit together, there are only three guys left.

And after the terrifying "five small" formally assembled, the alliance will officially enter the "small ball era"!

Hibbert will also be completely eliminated at this time!

These days are only two or three years away.

Really waiting for Leonard to grow up, the Pacers officially entered the reconstruction!

Therefore, for the Pacers, this deal is a steady profit!

…

The game officially started.

The starting lineup for the Knicks: Dragic, Pietrus, Yi Jianlian, Stoudemire, Tyson Chandler.

The starting lineup for the Pacers: Collison, George Hill, Danny Granger, Tyler Hansbrough and center Hibbert.

Judging from the composition of the entire lineup, this is a defensive team that is strong and offensive, from position 1 to position 5. Except for Granger, everyone else is capable of defensiveness.

It's a bit like the Bulls who flipped the board. Granger at the third position is the main attacker, but his offensive performance and his performance at critical moments are not as good as Rose.

Of course, this is also normal. After all, Derek Rose was the second place on the MVP list last season, which can be compared to a star.

But the overall offensive ability of the other players on the Pacers is better than that of the Bulls. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com

In fact, it can be seen from the rise of the Bulls last year and the rise of the Pacers this year that the lower limit of the team that started with defense will not be low, and the upper limit will not be too bad!

In terms of the later "Five Juniors", they attacked smoothly on the offensive end, but they were also very active on the defensive end. Their defensive counterattacks were unsolvable for the entire league for a long time!

Of course, this is also normal, given up part of the inner line height, naturally there is an increase in the movement speed.

This is also the true meaning of the "five small".

The game officially began, and the Pacers grabbed the ball.

There was a lot of cheers at their home court.

Hibbert got the ball and gave it to Collison.

How to evaluate this player, he is famous for the Hornets but not willing to be a substitute player for Chris Paul. He has two brushes. No one can deny this.
