Chapter 302: The Last Stand of the Walkers
Rewind the clock a few days, and when the playoffs start, the Pacers would never have imagined that they would be tied 3-0 by the 76ers!
Don't say they can't think of it, it's the 76ers, they can't even think that they can beat the Pacers a 3:0!
It's just a little bit of a sweep, it's incredible.
The Pacers home fans are going crazy, oh my God, the team is about to be swept away?
Is this still the team that Indiana fans have high hopes for?
Especially the team's boss Granger, in the third key game, was actually injured!
This time, according to the post-game intelligence, Granger's ankle problem is still relatively serious, which may have triggered the old injury.
So, the fourth game of Granger should really not be played.
This is a very big blow to the Pacers, and without Granger, what will the Pacers do next to the Paid City 76ers.
"Do you want to give them face in this one? Sweep isn't quite right? ”
At the hotel where the Philadelphia 76ers are staying, the whole team is having a pregame meeting.
Because Granger is injured, they have one less of the biggest threats for the Philadelphia 76ers.
So at present, the 76ers are relatively easy, and the Pacers have less of the strongest people, so what else is there to play? And it's already 3:0, it would be nice to win one more game.
Therefore, someone said, do you want to give the walkers face and give them a game.
"Don't let it, haven't you heard of the truth that the mourning soldiers will win? Granger is missing, but don't underestimate them, we don't have a reason to be so arrogant. ”
Stevens was a little unhappy with the team's somewhat arrogant mood.
The 76ers are not yet a strong team in the league, and although there is no Granger on the other side, the impact of the Pacers is not small.
"Shall we go for a sweep then?"
Iguodala asked the manager.
"A sweep is okay, Chicago, it should have swept the Eagles."
Stevens looked at the small notebook in his hand, and the Bulls should have swept the Eagles 4-0.
However, the first place swept the eighth place, and this is not a problem in theory.
The gap between third and sixth should theoretically not be that big.
"Then I won't give them face, let's sweep tonight to avoid long nights and dreams."
Han Miao expressed her thoughts.
"Okay, I agree."
Hayward agreed.
"I agree!"
Whiteside is also excited, he has played against Hibbert in these three games, so if he can sweep the opponent, Whiteside is also excited.
The rest of the 76ers agreed, and the last time the 76ers swept their opponents in the playoffs seemed a long time ago.
"Then you're welcome tonight."
Stevens has also made up his mind to take advantage of your illness and kill you, and at this special moment in the playoffs, Stevens will definitely not be soft.
That night, the Consec Arena was still full of Pacers fans, and it was true that the team was on the verge of life and death, but the fans still had the last hope for the home team, and in the case of Granger's temporary inability to return, the home team fans hoped that the Pacers could suddenly explode and take out the 76ers to avoid being swept.
Well, it's a great idea, but it's too difficult to implement.
The Pacers had to make minor adjustments tonight because of Granger's injury, George appeared in the starting small forward position for the first time in the playoffs (he had been playing shooting guard before), and on the scoring guard, the Pacers also brought in a newcomer, Lance Stephenson!
This is also a brute, the defense is not good, in Han Miao's memory, the Pacers scolded the Heat in the next few years, this Stephenson is dedicated to fighting James, the only one in the league who dares to blow into James' ears on the court.
The 76ers lineup was also fine-tuned, scoring guard went up to Korver off the bench, Iguodala returned to the main lineup, and apparently Stevens also took into account the counterattack on the opposite side and took out the defensive Iguodala in advance.
George is the protagonist of the Pacers tonight, and Granger is not there, he is the strongest firepower of the Pacers!
"Gordon, tonight is the stage for you and Paul to face off, and it's time to prove yourself."
Han Miao patted Hayward on the shoulder, this is indeed the first time that the two of them have met in the same starting position on the field, and if there is no game, George has unlimited firing rights tonight.
"I have your full support."
Regarding the battle between Hayward and George, Han Miao expressed his support, anyway, as long as George is suppressed today, the Pacers will definitely be finished.
At the beginning of the game, probably because he was forced to the point of no way back, this time he jumped the ball, and Hibbert actually jumped to win!
Whiteside looked incredulous, he would lose to himself stupidly?
"Attack!"
Here, George took the lead and rushed out, and Collison also sent a pass through the majority of the court!
Hayward followed behind George, watched George take the ball, and then walked straight away, took three steps and did a two-step dunk!
Hayward tried to block from behind, but was a little bit worse than George.
"Boom!"
The opening is even a fast break dunk!
The whole team of the 76ers frowned, and the fast break dunk after jumping to the ball, isn't this their 76ers' own best trick?
"It's amazing."
Hayward and Han Miao glanced at each other, George was really powerful, and he was able to play their team's fast attack and counterattack!
"Give him back!"
Han Miao controlled the ball, and then motioned for Hayward to prepare to return one.
George blocked Hayward after half the court and blocked Hayward head-on.
Han Miao beckoned the inside line to block and dismantle, Whiteside blocked, and Han Miao rushed directly to the inside line!
Hibbert's arms were outstretched, blocking Han Miao's breakthrough route, and the huge difference in height made the duel between the two of them very interesting.
Han Miao stepped on Europe and rushed forward, Hibbert stood still, and was ready to give Han Miao a slap!
"You want to cover me?"
Han Miao rose into the air, then collected the ball in the air in his abdomen, leaned on Hibbert, and then prepared to lower his hand!
"This ball will definitely be covered!"
Hibbert leaned slightly sideways, then raised his hand, and at first glance, he was ready to slap one hard!
"Hehe......"
Han Miao slammed the ball behind her back, and then threw it with one hand!
Hibbert was taken aback, what kind of routine is this? Blind behind the scenes?
"Huh!"
Whiteside, who rushed back after blocking and dismantling, jumped hard, grabbed the basketball in the air with both hands, and then received it in the back of his head, and the whole person was like a bomber, and he buckled to the basket!
"Boom!"
Hibbert was slammed away by Whiteside, and Whiteside double-dunked and dunked!
This time, it was more violent than George's fast attack just now!
"You want to fight tonight?"
Hayward asked George.
George didn't say much, just glanced sideways at him, and then silently went back to catch the ball.
But George's eyes made Hayward feel a chill in his back.
This guy is really ready to fight!
