171: A pair of "geniuses"

Pachulia considers himself a tough guy, and of course, he also thinks that he is extremely clever in all kinds of small actions. Al. Horford suffered in the first half of the game in front of Pachuria's small movements, and "Birdman" Anderson was often entangled with Pachuria.

So just after the half, Anderson had three fouls. However, Pachulia is more "good", he has already committed 4 fouls.

However, the Georgians don't seem to care if they are sent off. In the second half, he will reduce the number of fouls he committed, but he will certainly not reduce the number of small moves he makes.

and Larry. Unlike Drew, Pachulia is not a player hostile to the Pacers. He just wants to help the team win, and being rough and dirty, it's just the way he approaches the game.

"Pachuria, watch out for fouls in the second half. But if necessary...... You can play it properly. After all, Anderson has also committed three fouls. "At half-time in the dressing room, Drew's words to Pachulia gave the Georgians a twinkle.

"Hmm." Pachulia nodded, he didn't need to say Drumin, he also knew what to do.

Pachulia is barely a passing center, but what about Pachuria? The Eagles' interior line is very empty. If Pachulia is sent off, Drew will have to start with a Serbian white inside lineman pulling Manovic. However, Radmanovic was only an anti-aircraft turret, and he did not have the ability to play the number five position.

Preemptively, before Pachulia is sent off, this may be Drew's plan.

After the start of the second half, in order to protect Pachuria, Drew had to use the 34-year-old center Jason, who had not played for a long time. Collins plays. Collins entered the industry with the 18th pick in the first round in '01, and he has been a role player in his career, with not dazzling statistics and very mediocre ability.

The only time Collins has been discussed by fans is because he is the first in North American sports history to admit that he is a fan. Sex. Love athletes. Before Henson crossed over, he also knew about Jason because of this incident. The name Corinthians.

It follows that Collins was a man of great courage. But on the basketball court, courage alone is not enough.

In the second half, the Hawks' offense was slower than before, as they were already scared by the Pacers' quick counterattack, and the only thing the Hawks could do to avoid mistakes was to slow down as much as possible.

However, the Pacers' strong perimeter defensive chain didn't make the Hawks' positional battle come to fruition. Smith's onslaught misses under West's defense. Josh. Smith is indeed an All-Star level swingman at the No. 3 or No. 4 swing man, but Drew has a bit of a hard time making Josh a James envoy.

Switching offense and defense, the Hawks must also withstand the flood of Pacers players after the offense misses. Drew thought that due to physical factors, the Pacers' offense in the second half of the game would be much weakened. However, the truth is that the Pacers players are playing harder!

They seem to have abandoned the open-space shooting routine and are trying to break through the box in an attempt to settle the fight close to the basket.

Drugged the "array", this is Henson's forte. Since you're a weakness as a center forward in the lineup, then don't blame me for being unkind.

So, Jason. Collins was whistled for a foul less than a minute into the game, and there was still a fatal 2+1.

"Jason's speed was so slow that he didn't have time to make up for the breakthrough. By the time he reacted to another foul, it was already too late. To be honest, instead of letting the opponent play 2+1, Collins might as well let George score. ”

Kenny. Smith shook his head, Collins hadn't played 50 games in a season since the start of the '08-09 season. In addition to injury problems, Collins' lack of ability is also the reason why he is almost unavailable.

If Drew is not unavailable now, he probably won't replace the old center who has faded out of people's eyes for a long time.

George hit a free throw and hit a three-pointer as soon as he came up.

Pulling the score away before the fourth quarter, Henson's players had to keep it in mind.

At this time, Drew was also a little flustered, and the 13-point difference was not big, but it was not easy to chase. Now it's not about whether the Pacers can hold up on the fourth energy, but whether the Hawks can hold on to the fourth quarter!

It's okay, Josh. Smith's three-pointer eased some of the pressure on the Hawks. I have to admit that Josh's form today is really good, and Henson estimates that this guy will not have a problem scoring 30 points today. But what is a 30 point for?

"Keep pressing up, pressing up!" Henson is still standing on the sidelines and directing, and Henson's ass didn't stick to the bench much in today's game. As he said to Angeli before the game: "How can you let down an old friend like Drew? ”

As a result, the originally smooth game was once again interrupted by the referee's whistle. Jason. Collins fouled for the second time in a row, and this time, it was Danny, who was not good at breaking through with the ball. Green.

Green's abrupt cut made Marvin inattentive. Williams was surprised, after all, today, Green didn't have many opportunities to perform, and as an off-ball shooter, Green's range of movement is generally between the three-point line and the mid-range.

Just in Marvin. While Williams was still thinking about how to help Johnson defend George, the guy next to him suddenly came out.

So, Paul Miaodao arrived, and Green, who cut in, received the ball and went straight to the frame.

Jason of 2.13m. Collins was the highest on the court at this time, but that height did not seem to be a deterrent, and even off-ball shooter Green dared to challenge Collins head-on.

Collins really couldn't jump, and his defensive awareness dropped a lot. Another foul, Green stepped to the free-throw line.

At this point, Drew's gaze couldn't help but fall on Pachuria. While the Georgian isn't a super center who can dominate the box, at least with him, the Eagles' interior isn't going to be beaten into a sieve full of holes. Moreover, Pachulia also had some "skills" that Corinth was not good at.

Pachulia also looked at Drew with a "I can't wait to go up and take over those bastards" expression. But Drew held back, no, Pachulia must be saved for the decisive moment!

The third time, Collins finally didn't foul again. Because the Pacers didn't hit it directly, Paul lightly hoisted the ball to Horford from beyond the three-point line, and then everyone pulled away to watch Horford's individual performance in the low post.

A slick back-turn footwork allowed Horford to easily brush past Collins, and when Horford broke through himself, Collins simply stopped chasing the defense. Because he knows very well that if he jumps and blocks, the only possibility is to eat another foul.

As a result, Horford, who had left the team because the Hawks were unwilling to renew his contract at a large price, slapped his old club in the face with a two-handed slam dunk.

In fact, Horford has nothing to complain about right now. At the beginning, he was really reluctant to leave Atlanta and his teammates. But when he arrived in Indianapolis, he realized that life here was also very good. It could even be said that it is better than Atlanta.

Coming here, he's still an All-Star, he's got more offense, he's got more wins. On top of that, the Hensons' party also led him to meet his current wife, Emily. Vega.

When the Pacers broke the Hawks' interior three times in a row, Drew Sr. had to make a change. The 34-year-old Collins has been so embarrassed that he can't even adapt to NBA-level confrontations. If this continues, even if the Pacers can't fight back, the Hawks will collapse before the fourth quarter.

"Watch out for your fouls, and if necessary, others will help Pachulia block the foul!" Eventually, Drew compromised. He was replaced by a Georgian who had already committed four crimes, a villain who was only "superficially honest".

Seeing Pachulia play, Henson smiled instead: "Stephenson, Chris, you guys are back on the field." Needless to say, you know what to do, right? ”

Let Pachulia go off early, which was arranged by Henson at halftime.

It's just that Henson didn't expect that the other party also wanted his people to leave early.

As a result, the lineups of the two sides have become the same as at the beginning of the second quarter, the second leg of a hand-to-hand fight, officially started!

This time, Pachulia didn't plan to stay until the end of the match. If you don't foul, there must be a non-foul way to play.

So in the first attack, Pachulia used a very exaggerated fake fall, deceived the referee's whistle, and successfully stood on the free throw line.

"Birdman" Anderson kept complaining to the referee, and Henson also put pressure on the referee with his own yell. But even so, Pachulia still picked up two points from the start.

"Pachulia is a very cunning guy, and the Pacers centers must be on the lookout!" Seeing that Pachulia tricked Anderson into fouling, O'Neill on the commentary stage was a little angry.

After all, O'Neill and Pachulia didn't fight once or twice. Although even O'Neal during the Celtics period could beat Pachulia 13-0. But O'Neal will never forget the 05-06 season, when he was still with the Heat, and he was forced off the court after only 20 points.

The reason is simple, Pachuria's "cunning" allowed O'Neill to graduate six early. O'Neill believes it was one of the most humiliating fights of his career.

So far, Anderson has also been saddled with 4 fouls. Drew wants to see which of us will consume who first!

After adding a foul to "Birdman," Pachulia was still not honest. On the contrary, this feel-good guy has a plan in mind to make a big splash!

It was a pick-and-roll by Paul and Anderson in order to force Pachulia to be misplaced to defend Paul and force him to foul.

Paul's pull-up jump shot after borrowing cover was very aggressive, and he leaned forward sharply just to make a foul! However, Pachulia was not fooled, he just stood there with his arms held high.

It would be nice if it was just that, after all, Paul can also score goals with his body leaning forward. Even if you don't make a foul, you can score.

But at the moment when Paul threw the ball to the ground, Pachulia took a step forward very unnecessarily, and "inadvertently" put his instep at Paul's feet!

"This bastard!" Seeing this action, Henson, who had a relaxed face, immediately changed his expression!

Paul also saw Pachuria's movements, and instantly understood what this scumbag wanted to do! The next second, Paul landed, and he moved his footing slightly, avoiding Pachuria's black feet. But he still didn't get a firm footing and fell to the ground.

Although Paul was not injured, anyone with a discerning eye knew what Pachulia was trying to do. If Paul hadn't adjusted in time, the consequences would have been dire! West then strode up and pushed Pachulia away, not forgetting to give the Georgian a big elbow.

"Get out of here, you filthy Georgian bastard!"

"You say that again!?"

"What do you want to hear, Lao Tzu will tell you!" Stephenson also immediately rushed forward, undaunted by the taller Pachuria. But fortunately, George grabbed him, and the two did not scuffle together.

Pachulia was stunned by the two of them like this, and she was a little stunned in an instant. The rest of the Eagles couldn't watch Pachulia being bullied like this, so several Eagles players also stood in front of the Georgians.

The players on both sides were huddled together, and it was inevitable that there would be some physical contact.

"It was very chaotic, the players from both sides were huddled together!" Kenny. Smith immediately stood up nervously, the Pacers guys are not good at stubble.

At the same time, the scene just now was replayed on the big screen at the scene. It's not a scene where Pachulia and West clash, but a picture of the moment when Paul's shot lands.

"Oh my God! It's a dirty, extremely unethical move! "Watching Pachulia deliberately put her foot under Paul, Kenny. Smith used two very heavy words in a row!

No matter how fierce the game is, it is always a game. But if you deliberately hurt someone, the nature is completely different.

Drew Sr. looked nervously at the court, not so worried about Pachuria, but watching Paul's situation. If Paul can't stand up, then this game ...... The Eagles will undoubtedly have a better chance of winning!

Do you think he cared about Paul's health? Think too much.

"If Pachulia hurts Chris, I'm going to rush up and beat that bastard myself, definitely!" Henson was also on the sidelines, eager to take a chance, and he was even ready to be suspended. But Silas and Vogel clearly didn't let their head coach lose his mind, and they dragged the young man in the fancy suit.

But in the midst of the confusion, Paul slowly stood up. He took two steps and found that his ankle was fine. It seems that just now, he was perfectly circumvented.

"Next time you're wearing Lao Tzu's signature shoes to do something like this, you nobody, you filthy bastard!" Paul stood up and had the heart to spray Pachulia at each other, and it was really no big deal.

After a few minutes, the chaos finally subsided, and the referee went over and over the footage before sending off Pachulia and West, who flew an elbow.

To Henson's surprise, Drew still had the face to argue with the referee. You know, Pachulia is "the facts of the crime are conclusive".

After all, this penalty made the Hawks lose the only center they could use, while the Pacers' Paul and "Birdman" still did not fall!

There is no doubt that this has put Drew in a desperate situation, can he not be in a hurry?

Henson shook his head, Drew and Pachuria, the "geniuses", can't even play dirty......

The Eagles' only center has been "jailed", and it's time to put an end to this stupid game.
