Super Role Player

At the beginning of the second quarter, the two teams came on the bench. Novel of nature ⒉

Judging from the strength of the bench, the two teams are evenly matched, but the Pacers are slightly stronger because the Pacers have a strong point on the bench, Luis Scola.

Of course, it's not that strong. The 76ers' bench has a lot of outside firepower. Once it fires, the Pacers can't stop it.

Therefore, for more than 3 minutes in the second quarter, the 76ers' bench played very vigorously, playing on a par with the Pacers' bench.

The point difference has not been widened for a long time. Frank Vogel looked a little anxious. Because it was a home game, the Pacers were eager to lock in some advantages. Now there was no advantage at all. Frank Vogel thought about it and put Paul George on the bench in advance. On the field.

Paul George returned early, and Brett Brown was not willing to let Anxi play early. While hesitating, Anxi took the initiative to ask for a fight.

"Brett, let me go. We must win this game. Don't let the Pacers take the advantage."

"But..." Brett Brown was still hesitant.

"After all, we are fighting with injuries. It makes no difference to play earlier."

Brett Brown thought about it carefully and realized that Anxi said the same thing. There was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded.

The 76ers also replaced Anxi. At this time, the news that Anxi was playing with an injury was still not disclosed by the 76ers. No one knew that Anxi, who played evenly with Paul George in this game, would actually be a seven-year-old. Anxi has 80% or even 60-70% strength.

After the substitutions, the score between the two teams was 34:37, with the Pacers leading by 3 points, but the ball rights belonged to the 76ers, so the 76ers had the opportunity to further narrow the point difference.

After Anxi returned to the field, he was on the court as a point guard, so he directly took the ball from the backcourt and controlled it to the frontcourt.

It is still Paul George who defends Anxi. Although he plays the third position, he still switches to Anxi in order to face Anxi.

Anxi called a screen from Cole Aldridge, and then the screen drove directly to the basket.

The Pacers' inside line immediately shrank, and with the help of Paul George, who arrived later, Anxi was double-teamed.

The moment he was double-teamed, Anxi didn't even think about it.

He directly distributed the ball. Now is not the time when he needed to score in the first quarter. Considering the back injury, Anxi should play more reasonably.

After passing the ball, Francisco Garcia got a pretty good opportunity and shot a three-pointer.

Chris Copeland turned around to interfere and was a step late, but Francisco Garcia's touch seemed a bit cold, and the shot missed a little.

Ian Mahinmi grabbed the rebound, and Anxi didn't care. No one was going to hit the ball 100 times. This opportunity has already come out, so just stick to this style of play.

In the Pacers' offense, cJ Watson carries the ball to the frontcourt, and James Anderson is defending him. Anxi is in front of Paul George. There are no outstanding defensive players on the 76ers' bench, so he still has to defend Paul George himself. .

However, cJ Watson caught an opportunity, broke through, quickly rushed into the penalty area and made a successful throw.

At 39:34, the Pacers widened the point difference.

The Indiana fans at the scene cheered, and they seemed to see the team's opportunity to widen the gap.

In the next wave of the 76ers' offense, Anxi chose to break through quickly or use a pick-and-roll screen to get rid of Paul George's defense. Anxi rushed inside and hit Ian Mahinmi's defense with a hook shot.

The basketball hit with a bang. Ian Mahinmi's ability to protect the frame is still worse than Hibbert. Anxi relied on Mahinmi's hook shot very easily and directly scored 2 points.

Next, the Pacers' offense, this time the ball was handed to Paul George. He broke through with the ball and leaned on Anxi's body for a layup.

But just as he was holding the ball and preparing to send it to the basket, Anxi suddenly stretched out his hand.

With a snap, Anxi swatted the basketball out of Paul George's hands, a successful defense!

After dropping the ball, Anxi grabbed the basketball, quickly advanced towards the frontcourt with the ball, and then threw the basketball to James Anderson who was running in the front. James Anderson did not waste this opportunity. He rushed to the frontcourt and made a pass. After a fast break layup, the score instantly became 38:39, and the 76ers were only 1 point behind.

Now Pacers fans are not so happy.

But then the Pacers quickly returned the favor with a goal from the 76ers. Luis Scola used his inside steps to play with Antawn Jamison and turned around for a layup.

The Pacers fans who suffered a loss immediately gave thunderous cheers, once again creating the atmosphere of the Devil's home court.

The score difference returned to three points, and Anxi also played more resolutely. Although he was playing a little bit on the court now, basically there were no big movements. They were light breakthroughs or shooting layups. He always chose the simplest one. The scoring method, but the effect is still very good.

For example, in this ball, Anxi continued to call for a screen. After the pick-and-roll screen, Anxi rushed inside again. After attracting double-teams, he suddenly hit the ground and passed the ball to the outside again.

Anxi chose to trust his teammates rather than force himself.

Francisco Garcia on the outside caught the ball and finally seized the opportunity this time. He shot a three-pointer and hit it with a bang!

At 41:41, the two teams were officially tied.

Anxi played tepidly on the court, but the effect was still quite good.

After scoring the goal, Francisco Garcia seemed a little excited and ran over to high-five Anxi who was retreating.

"Come on, Francisco, we need to be ahead!"

Anxi encouraged his teammates, then turned around and pushed in front of Paul George again.

Paul George obviously wanted to regain some face, so he used Luis Scola's pick-and-roll screen to break into the basket.

But Anxijia arrived and directly interfered with Paul George's layup.

Paul George missed a layup and Cole Aldridge grabbed the rebound. Now, the 76ers had a chance to reverse the score.

Still playing the same style, Anxi broke into the paint, attracted a double double team from the Pacers and then distributed the ball again. However, this time, the Pacers were on guard and blocked Francisco Garcia's point in advance.

But Garcia is not dead, he also knows how to adapt. If the Pacers block him, he will continue to distribute the ball.

So, after Garcia distributed the ball again, the basketball was given to Antoine Jamison. Jamison also caught the ball outside the three-point line and also caught and shot.

With a swish sound, the basketball passed through the net cleanly. After the crisp sound of the net being wiped, the Conseco Arena fell silent.

At 44:41, the 76ers reversed the score and led the Pacers by 3 points!

The 76ers' bench has no other advantages. The biggest advantage is that almost everyone has a three-pointer, including power forward Antawn Jamison.

As a result, once the 76ers' bench has the right leadership, the firepower is still very fierce.

Next, the Pacers' offense, Paul George's pull-up jumper from outside still missed, James Anderson succeeded in grabbing the rebound, and the 76ers counterattacked with a fast break, without even Anxi's participation, the coordination was completed directly by Garcia and James Anderson , a layup by Garcia.

46:41, a wave of 5:o, the 76ers quickly widened the point difference.

This wave of 5:0 little ** forced Frank Vogel to call a timeout because the plan could not keep up with the change. Originally, he replaced Paul George to expand his lead, but as a result, his lead has not been expanded. Instead, the 76ers reversed the score and took the lead in the game...

On the 76ers' side, after Frank Vogel called a timeout, Brett Brown was simply happy. Although Anxi didn't play with much energy, the effect was so good that he guarded Paul George on the defensive end and attacked offensively. Duan also assisted his teammates to score through the simplest breakthrough points, and the game also entered the rhythm of the 76ers at this moment.

Anxi's performance in this game was not outstanding. Although there was a wave of explosions in the first quarter, which caused an uproar among the fans, but from the beginning of the second quarter, Anxi became dull. The playing was also more reasonable than ever. Opportunities that were not opportunities were resolutely ignored. Even if there is a chance to take a shot, if the opportunity is too difficult, he will not take the shot. He will always give the ball to his teammates and so on.

Playing like this also made Magic Johnson and Reggie Miller in the commentary box a little strange.

Especially Reggie Miller.

He had watched a lot of Anxi's ball before. The previous Anxi's playing was quite reasonable, but there were also a lot of forced shots against the defense. This game was strange. Starting from the second quarter, as long as the ball in front of him was If you are on defense, you will definitely not take action.

Although the 76ers are leading the game, this is not the Anxi he is familiar with anyway, so Reggie Miller is also a little strange.

"This game in Anxi suddenly turned into Steve Nash. It was so strange. Although the 76ers were leading the game, Anxi's performance always made me feel that the game we were watching was not the 76ers versus the Pacers, but more like the past. of the sun to the walkers."

Magic Johnson also felt strange. He felt that Anxi might have suddenly changed his original way of playing for some reason.

"Perhaps there is some reason why Anxi changed his playing style. Either he was stimulated by the outside world, or there is something wrong with his body. If he plays hard, his hitting rate will drop..."

(The book review section said inexplicably that Yi Wen had written a blunt twist, but where was the twist? It was obviously just a small plot) (To be continued.)
