Chapter 400 The Strongest Pacer

At the end of the three quarters, Lin Shaojie scored 43 points. It seems that after this game, Lin Shaojie will definitely score more than 50 points on the Spurs. No one knows the specific number now.

Anyway, everyone can see that with Leonard's physical exertion, it is impossible for the Spurs to find another player similar to him.

Sitting on the bench, Mills is officially six feet tall, but is actually 1.8 meters tall;

Belinelli had also played previously, with little success;

Ginobili is tall enough, but are you sure he can guard Lin Shaojie?

Popovich uses him cautiously. He is the Spurs' best comeback weapon in desperate situations, rather than letting him be a coolie on the court.

But Ginobili was clearly out of shape today, and Popovich barely played him;

Corey Joseph also has limited talent, but the Canadian who is daring and hard-working is also a rookie in the Spurs. Although he is still in his rookie season and works hard, he has never gained Popovich's trust.

From this point of view, even if the Spurs' bench is strong, it has something to do with it. But on the back line, and the back line that focuses on perimeter defense, it is impossible to deal with a team like the Pacers.

.

This is also the precious thing about Leonard.

Sure enough, with Lin Shaojie, who was still full of energy and wanted to attack the inside, he led a few substitutes and the Spurs soldiers to start fighting in the low post.

Leonard was still the first line of defense standing in front of Lin Shaojie, but Lin Shaojie's seemingly slow pace led Leonard to the low post. Everyone watched Lin Shaojie use that seemingly "hard," but actually powerful

A full post-up shot aimed at Leonard.

Popovich frowned and looked at Leonard, whose expression remained unchanged but fatigue appeared in his eyes.

A player who has been defending nearly three quarters of the game has to face a power player's post-up in the fourth quarter.

All right!

There is nothing more cruel than this.

Popovich knew during the tryout how outstanding the young man's physical talent was. If it weren't for his yellow skin that was easily misunderstood, he would definitely be a hot commodity on the court if he wore black skin.

Looking at people through colored glasses is very common in the sports circles of beautiful countries. In addition to swimming and other sports, Lao Hei has occupied more than 70% of the sports circle. Looking around, running, jumping and so on

Kind of black.

This is a private land belonging to other races. Even if the people standing behind are still capitalist dads, the players on the front line, among the four major business leagues, those outstanding players are still mainly old and black.

Li Dacheng looked at the bad boy on the court with bright eyes. Lin Shaojie's low singles was almost the straw that broke the camel's back. If the Spurs didn't replace Lin Shaojie with someone else to defend him, Leonard's physical ability might not have lasted long.

Even Leonard's fouls are not a big problem because he will use up all his energy before committing the foul.

There was a dull sound of "dong dong" on the court, and Leonard had to step back to get out of the way, and then helplessly watched his opponent turn around and shoot.

Leonard couldn't jump up anymore and could only stretch his hands in place;

It was even more impossible for Parker to counterattack. Green was also entangled by Paul George and had no chance.

Players who have faced off against Lin Shaojie, or even guarded Lin Shaojie while running without the ball, looked at this scene on TV and had to give a thumbs up and admire Leonard for being a man.

Almost all teams that have played against the Pacers have done this before. Trying to limit the Pacers' No. 13 is almost the top priority for teams across the league.

But even if they defend man-to-man, facing a monster like Lin Shaojie, they will switch to someone else to fight. Like the Spurs, who use one player from beginning to end, no one can handle it.

Lin Shaojie's movement is not just about running, changing speed and direction, it is almost a physical torment for every defender.

Emergency stop, acceleration, emergency stop again...

These

"Routine" operations are almost a disaster for defensive players' knees. Players with old injuries can feel their bodies alarming after a few back and forth.

Younger people will also feel unwell. Not only that, Lin Shaojie also constantly intersperses between teammates or opponents while running, making reasonable use of the players' positions on the court. Lin Shaojie can turn a basketball game into a long-distance running obstacle.

race.

Not only do you need to have sufficient physical fitness, but you also need to be focused. Always be careful of "wooden stakes" like obstacles like teammates or opponents, and be sure not to hit them. Anyway, those people have never seen such a bad thing before.

Compared with him, Hamilton, the "Mask Man" during the Pistons era, was kind-hearted. The No. 13 who looked at the big boy next door was the devil on the court.

It's just a ball game, why does it have to be so difficult?

Hello everyone, I can stand there and shoot three-pointers together. Isn’t it cool?

Leonard's chest rose and fell rapidly, and after the start of the fourth quarter, he felt like his days were like a year.

Seeing his opponent suddenly stop and start again, he rushed over feebly.

Fortunately, this was not a back-up fight, but the moment he rushed over, he was already a little weak and could not control his body, and he crashed into the opponent's chest.

Physical energy decreases and the body begins to alarm.

"Shh!"

"Ugh!"

As the referee's whistle sounded, the basketball plunged into the frame again, and the score between the Spurs and the Pacers gradually widened.

Leonard's foul brought the Spurs to the line of life and death, with more than half a quarter left before the end of the game.

Popovich took the opportunity to call a timeout and complete the substitution.

Leonard walked down the court reluctantly, and after taking two steps, he turned back and asked.

"Aren't you tired?"

Leonard thought he was determined and had excellent endurance, but he already looked a little out of breath. The guy opposite him couldn't really tell that he was tired except for a little sweat.

Whether it's because he really has good physical fitness or he's hiding it well, Leonard can't say.

"How can I not be tired? It's not easy to make some money for milk powder, but when I think of that little guy, I'm full of motivation."

Lin Shaojie responded "kindly": "Come on, I hope you can become a father one day, this will make you stronger!"

"Really?"

Leonard ended up not believing it. He had a good relationship with his girlfriend, but they had never considered having children. After all, he was still young.

But seeing Lin Shaojie "trying his best" on the court, Leonard felt that he might as well give it a try.

"Don't believe everything that guy says, even if he says it on the court."

Popovich was also kind-hearted. Although he couldn't hear what the two were talking about, the coach always felt that it was not a good thing.

Leonard felt a little strange. Lin Shaojie was clearly imparting his "secrets", so why would Popovich cause trouble?

Zhang Weiping watched Popovich replace Leonard, and then looked at the score at this time.

The score was 95 to 84. With half a quarter left, the Spurs still lacked a strong outside defensive player. Lin Shaojie was in good condition. At this moment, Zhang Weiping felt so satisfied.

"To this point, the game feels like it's almost over. From the moment the Spurs replaced Leonard, I don't believe anyone else in the Spurs can guard Coach Lin."

The game continued with the fans' final cheers. Lin Shaojie began to put more energy into defense. Without Leonard's man-to-man defense, his living environment became much better.

Belinelli was used by Popovich as a swingman. Ginobili's appearance also allowed the GDP combination to successfully "come together" in the last half of the quarter. However, Lin Shaojie's deterrent power from the outside allowed Parker to control the court.

It instantly lost its power.

You know, Parker has never been the kind of player who simply organizes the team. In other words, the Spurs do not have such a core.

Even many times, they are on the inside

The "central axis" plays a far more assisting role than Parker, and the roles of Duncan and Diaw are maximized.

But when the point of transmitting artillery shells from the outside was pressed down, the Spurs' inside deterrence dropped rapidly.

Even Duncan himself had to be careful when shooting after finally receiving the pass.

Just now, Lin Shaojie broke into the inside line by accident, and when Duncan was about to shoot, he gave the opponent a big block.

Seeing the basketball being slapped out of bounds by a player like Lin Shaojie, Duncan smiled helplessly.

He knew that it would be difficult to win this game!

There isn't much time left for the Spurs.

Only at this time can everyone understand how arrogant Lin Shaojie is without the restrictions of Leonard, who is fully committed on the court and is strong in both offense and defense.

The Spurs simply don't have a player around two meters tall who can restrain the opponent on the court.

Those who are taller than him are not as fast as him... This simple fact and his bug-like playing style make everything lose suspense.

Popovich surrendered much sooner than everyone expected.

The Spurs' score did not increase for several consecutive rounds, and after the Pacers slowly rose, Popovich surrendered.

As Lin Shaojie's assist data broke double and the score reached 53 points, Popovich immediately replaced Duncan, Parker and Ginobili.

The Argentine played less than 15 minutes in total in this game, so there really weren't many opportunities given to him.

His own shooting percentage is also horribly low. He feels sick and can't lift his spirits. When he came on the court at the last moment, he encountered an unreasonable Lin Shaojie. Ginobili couldn't twist his waist.

Got up.

Faced with an incomplete GDP, Lin Shaojie was still at full strength, and of course he was able to produce prosperous data.

As for Duncan himself, Duncan, who barely broke double figures in scoring, did not perform well either.

Several good offenses were ruined by No. 13, who shot 3 out of 10 from the field. When his statistics were finally compiled, his strongest attribute was actually his ability to "draw fouls", which made both West and Hibbert available.

He made a mistake.

Parker's scoring over 25 was mainly in the first three quarters. Without Leonard's cover in the fourth quarter, when Parker faced Lin Shaojie, his shooting percentage plummeted and he didn't even take many shots.

When the referee blew the final whistle, the fans at the scene celebrated loudly.

109 to 100. When the Spurs were chasing points, it was the moment when the Pacers withdrew their main force. The points difference seemed close, but in fact it was out of reach.

The Pacers defeated the Spurs, who ranked first in the Western Conference, in a home game on the first day of April, successfully defending their home honors.

Not only that, they also pushed back the Spurs' 18-game winning streak. The Spurs' 17-game winning streak did not create history at Conseco Arena, they just tied their team's record.

"After watching this game, although the loser is the Spurs, the Spurs also showed their resilience and potential. Leonard on their team is a single-handed defensive champion who is no less than Tony Allen. In the Spurs'

Under the system, it even produced an effect of 11 greater than 2."

Seeing the end of the game, Zhang Weiping said as he was summarizing after the game.

"Perhaps the fans don't have too deep feelings, but when the Thunder's three young men were at their peak, a defensive champion of Tony Allen's level allowed the opponent's field goal percentage to be less than 30%, and Harden was repeatedly intercepted. It was even more unsatisfactory.

The Warriors' Thompson dared to shoot in front of Tony Allen. At the same time, Tony Allen was still the best player to defend Kobe Bryant.

Now that Tony Allen is old, Leonard's excellent defense is at the forefront of the league. This is a player with far more talent than Tony Allen.

In this game, coach Lin's scoring reached a new high again, and he faced a strong team like the Spurs.

But fans who have watched the game will not simply think that this is Leonard's failure to do his job. This is the contribution of the entire Pacers team.

All members created opportunities for Director Lin, and Director Lin seized the opportunity and showed his abilities.

This is not a mistake that Leonard can resist alone. He has done everything he can do. I think after this game, more fans will know Leonard."

Popovich took the lead in comforting his disciple after the game, and then when he turned around and prepared to face the "verbal criticism" of the group of reporters, Lin Shaojie came over with Frank with a smile on his face.

"Greg, I'm sorry that you didn't get what you wanted."

Popovich hugged Lin Shaojie and patted him hard on the back. The solid touch made Popovich feel that young people talk a lot.

"Looking forward to the next game this season, I will give you the bitter pill of failure."

Popovich said with an old heart.

The regular season match between the two sides has ended, and the only way to meet again is in the finals.

The group of reporters holding camera equipment pressed the shutter one after another to record the images in front of them.

It was a familiar scene. Popovich promised to do this last season. In the end, the two sides successfully met in the finals. If this season is the same, everything that happened in front of them will definitely be regarded as a "famous scene," and it is worthy of the fans afterwards.

Watch again and again.

By the time the song was over, Popovich was already sitting in front of the interview table.

"Although I don't want to admit it, we lost. We lost to an opponent we can't lose the most."

There was no pain in Popovich's words.

"Although this game allowed Linn to score another high score, 53 points, we were like a dragon being slain and became a glorious result for him as a hero, but I think we can force a full state

Lynn, that's a pretty good achievement.

The failure is temporary. This is a mistake in my tactical arrangement. I should find another player who can help Kawhi share the pressure. He is not Linn's opponent yet, but we can also see that he is very important to Linn.

En's defense is effective. Without him, we would be defeated.

I believe we still have a chance to meet. In the remaining games, I don't think anyone can beat the Pacers. They have done a really good job together this season.

Lynn has so many players around him to help him, Frank has done a great job, he is an excellent coach..."

Frank seemed particularly happy after the game to be praised by Popovich.

Of course, the sense of honor brought by defeating the Spurs also made Frank feel a little elated.

It can be said that in this game, all members of the Pacers are serving Lin Shaojie.

This is the embodiment of the star's status at critical moments, and the Pacers did it particularly well.

Even after the game, "experts" immediately stood up and claimed that this was the strongest Pacer in history.

ESPN, which broadcast the game, solemnly stated:

"Maybe this team can't compare with what it was ten years ago on the forward line, but its superior performance on the back line and its stable performance this season have made the Pacers the strongest lineup in team history. They are good at every position.

The player configuration on the website is the most reasonable..."

In addition to espn, tnt also made similar comments, and some good people even stated that if the Pacers who were claimed to be the strongest in history before the Palace of Auburn Hills, even if Lin Shaojie was integrated into the team with the configuration of that year, he would not be able to reach the current level.

achievements.

That group of players is really too unruly. It is absolutely impossible for a rookie like Lin Shaojie to "dominate" them. The mutual dissatisfaction between teammates is far less smooth than the smooth control of the players at this time.

This team is almost invincible in the league.

Judging from today's game, the Pacers, in addition to being very anxious when encountering teams with strong inside players, were almost in a state of crushing other teams.

The Pacers are currently a little weak in the center department. If Hibbert is broken by the opponent, then West or other players will be needed to double-team and consume the opponent's players.

In this way, the role of the other starter is weakened.

But apart from this point, the current Pacers can't find any flaws.

In such a team-oriented team, everyone is willing to do their job well beside Lin Shaojie.

Especially what this game showed, after Lin Shaojie stole the ball, Paul George, as the "second boss", had no complaints and just kept running on the court to drive his opponents.

The same goes for George Hill, West and others. They either get involved, occupy positions, or deliver artillery shells.

As the core, Lin Shaojie immediately stood up and shouldered his responsibilities. His tenacity and efficiency always made his teammates feel at ease.

A team as strong as the Spurs may have a feeling of improvement after this defeat.

In the eyes of most fans, they had similar emotions after watching the game.

Maybe the Pacers' lineup at this time cannot satisfy the fantasy of most fans emotionally, and it will take time to accumulate, but the chemical reaction within the team is right here, and everyone can see it clearly.

It’s not that other teams don’t want to copy the Pacers’ success, but everyone feels that they are “fake” at first glance.

Lin Shaojie has surpassed the second place in assist data by a large margin. His superiority in the data list is really a reflection of his ability. The smooth operation of the entire team, reasonable distribution of ball rights, etc. are all due to this lineup.

Beyond feelings, the Pacers are the strongest this season!
