The half game ended quickly. Amid everyone's speculation, the 76ers maintained their lead until the end of the half.

55:50, a 5-point lead is enough to satisfy Brett Brown. After all, Anxi in this game is not Anxi in full condition. It is good to be able to lead at half-time. The 76ers have a chance to win. Conseco Arena grabbed a win, which is pretty good news.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Anxi was put off the court by Brett Brown to rest, and Paul George also did not play.

However, the Pacers, under the leadership of Lance Stephenson, played a very good offensive performance and scored consecutively. However, because Anxi was not on the court, the 76ers' offense was average and lasted more than half of the third quarter. , the Pacers completely tied the point difference.

Frank Vogel also put Paul George on the court again, hoping to take the lead.

Just when everyone thought Anxi would also play at the same time, Brett Brown acted very calmly and had no intention of replacing Anxi.

Anxi is not in a hurry. The two teams are just evenly matched now. Anxi used too much force in the first quarter, and the pain in his back aggravated. He also went through ice packs during the halftime break. However, in the second half, Anxi has decided to continue with the second quarter. style of play, so rest for a while to be able to paddle better.

As a result, Anxi and Brett Brown's decision worked wonders.

After Paul George came on the field, the Pacers failed to widen the point difference. Although they had the advantage on the court, Pau Gasol and McAway were not vegetarians, because George Hill was not present, and Micah Facing CJ Watson, Wei found some confidence. He continuously cooperated with Pau Gasol in the high post and scored consecutively, helping the 76ers stabilize the situation on the court.

Seeing that the point difference was never widened, Brett Brown simply did not let Anxi play in the third quarter.

Therefore, after the entire third quarter, Anxi rested throughout the game. The score between the two teams was 78:81. The Pacers only led by 3 points, which was a gap that could be recovered with one goal.

So the 76ers seemed very calm, and it all depends on Anxi's performance.

Anxi rested for a whole section, and his physical fitness has returned to its peak state.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Brett Brown put together a lineup of point guard Shaun Livingston, shooting guard James Anderson, small forward An Xi, power forward Antawn Jamison and center Cole Aldridge. He reassured An Xi Take the bench lineup to face the Pacers' lineup in the fourth quarter.

The Pacers' lineup in the fourth quarter is also a semi-main lineup, with point guard George Hill, shooting guard Solomon Hill, small forward Paul George, power forward Luis Scola and center Roy Hibbert.

The ball belonged to the 76ers in the opening game. Shaun Livingston held the ball from the backcourt and then handed the ball to Anxi.

Anxi was holding the ball at the top of the key, and he found that the Pacers guarding him was no longer Paul George, but Solomon Hill. Think about it, Paul George played most of the third quarter, and it was impossible to continue to guard him. Both ends of the offense and defense were struggling. At this time, Frank Vogel replaced Solomon Hill, who was good at defense, freeing Paul George from the defensive end, allowing George to focus on the offensive end.

Anxi was also delighted when facing Solomon Hill's defense. Solomon Hill was an above-average defender, but his defense relied more on his body and his defensive predictions were poor.

On the first goal after Anxi got the ball, he directly took advantage of Solomon Hill's weakness. After a slight change of direction, he directly accelerated the breakthrough and rushed into the inside.

Solomon Hill made a misjudgment and lost his defensive position early. He could only chase after Anxi, hoping to interfere with Anxi's shots.

But after Anxi rushed to the basket, he made another fake move. Halfway through the layup, he suddenly switched to a backhand, avoiding the interference of Solomon Hill, and scored the ball with a swish.

2 points were scored, and the point difference was reduced to 1 point.

The Pacers' offense, Paul George, who focused on the offensive end, also made progress. He hit Anxi hard, broke into the inside and sent the ball into the basket. At the same time, he caused a foul on Anxi, scored 2+1, and made a free throw. The Pacers will The point difference widened to 4 points.

The Pacers fans at Conseco Arena were completely crazy. Paul George scored 2+1 in Anxi. This scene made them so excited.

The 4-point lead also gave them hope of winning this game. The 76ers played very tenaciously, but the Pacers were still in the lead!

In the 76ers' offense, Anxi advanced to the frontcourt, beckoned for a pick-and-roll screen, continued to play simple breakthrough points, broke into the inside to attract the defense, Anxi stuffed the ball into the penalty area, and with a bang, Cole Aldridge dunked, 76 People are 2 points behind.

Immediately afterwards, it was Paul George. He continued to beat Anxi hard, but Anxi defended the ball very smartly. The moment Paul George took action, Anxi directly reached out to pat the basketball in Paul George's hand.

With a snap, the basketball was photographed and intercepted by Anxi!

After completing the steal, Anxi immediately launched a fast break. The 76ers' current lineup on the court can definitely play fast. On the contrary, the Pacers, because Roy Hibbert and Scola are on the court, are slower. Wait until When the 76ers quickly advanced to the frontcourt, only three of the Pacers returned to defend, with Hibbert and Scola still lagging behind.

Four on three in the frontcourt, this is very simple. Anxi passed the ball and sent it to the inside again. Shaun Livingston held the ball and tried to hit the basket. The three Pacers shrank to the basket. Shaun Livingston However, Dun didn't look at anyone to distribute the ball, and distributed the basketball to the three-point line as quickly as possible.

The one who caught the ball was Antawn Jamison, who was a step behind. He just arrived outside the three-point line and caught the basketball.

Just catch the ball and shoot, whoosh! Three point hit!

The 76ers overtook the score!

At 85:84, Antoine Jamison's three-pointer caused exclamations at Conseco Arena.

Then, the 76ers, who gradually found their form, began to expand the point difference.

In the Pacers' offense, Paul George broke through and passed the ball to Roy Hibbert in the paint. Hibbert missed Cole Aldridge's defense for a layup, and Anxi turned around and grabbed the rebound.

Then Anxi advanced to the frontcourt with the ball. After a pick-and-roll screen, Anxi used a quick cross-step change to pass Roy Hibbert, who was defending. He rushed into the penalty area and resisted Luis Scola's defensive attempt. Layup.

But halfway through the layup, Anxi suddenly turned around and swung the basketball towards the bottom corner.

Fake investment and real transfer!

There were gasps as James Anderson, who received the ball in the corner, came up empty.

Three-point shot, bang, missed! Pacers fans breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second, the basketball bounced high. Anxi jumped up from the crowd, picked the basketball from the air, and gently sent the basketball into the basket with a bang.

The Pacers continued to miss shots, and the 76ers' offense continued to succeed.

Although Anxi is paddling, its occasional bursts can always score points from Wanjun.

In this way, the two teams struggled for three quarters, but at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Anxi, who had been recharging his energy throughout the quarter, used his paddling performance to widen the gap and seal the final victory.

At 92:104, the 76ers achieved a rare victory on the road at Conseco Arena.

Relying on the team's performance, the 76ers won the away game, which can be regarded as taking the advantage of the series.

But Anxi's performance in this game aroused people's questions. Anxi played too little in this game. He didn't play in the third quarter or even the entire quarter. The offensive end was also reasonable to the extreme. Everyone speculated that there must be something behind this. reason……
