After Zhang Yi returned to the court, except for wasting an offensive opportunity, all the other rounds turned him into scoring, which is very efficient.

And the Lakers' opponent is the first-class defense of Indiana, the Pit Superstar, and the Pacers! Zhang Yi's performance really exceeded everyone's expectations.

The Lakers' chance to turn the tables is to limit the opponent's scoring as much as possible while maintaining the offensive tempo. They have been aggressive in defending on the strong side, but it hasn't worked well.

The defensive intensity of the No. 1 position has always been a big problem for the Lakers, and it catches up with the Pacers' very fast ball circulation, and the No. 2 position is an excellent scorer who can shoot and shoot. But now that Zhang Yi has directly stepped into the point guard position to defend a small opponent, with an advantage in size, speed, and explosiveness, it is too late for the opponent to change his tactics.

As soon as the basketball passes the point guard's hand, the Lakers will immediately send Zhang Yi to restrict him. After two or three rounds, the Pacers' point guard mentality is about to collapse.

Duncan took the initiative to take a timeout for the only time in the game, and his personality as a head coach is also because he sees the pitiful appearance of the opponent who has no choice but to call a timeout, so he sometimes does not call a timeout for the whole game, but now if they want to keep the win, the Pacers must adjust.

Zhang Yi's performance has exceeded Duncan's expectations in all aspects, and he never expected that this young man could play such mature basketball.

This is neither a one-sided offense, nor his defense, because Zhang Yi has done very well in both aspects, so good that Duncan is a little tempted.

He has never been averse to superstars, on the contrary, Duncan also chases stars like any other head coach. But every time the players under him are sent away, they must have reached their peak state.

This can also be seen in the team's record after the trade with the Pacers. The players who came under Duncan all played well, but none of them were able to play well with the Pacers.

It's not that other teams can't find manuals for these players, it's that Duncan has developed their ceiling, and these guys were sold because the head coach was tired of playing with them.

The game of basketball has always been like a game for him, where tactics are the rules of the game, and players are the pawns in his hands, and every pawn Duncan wants to make him the strongest. Of course, this is just an illusion, after all, everyone's ceiling is different.

Duncan is now very interested in Zhang Yi's potential. In the last few minutes of this game, he wondered not how to win, but how to figure it out......

The game restarted, and the eyes of the five Pacers were unified on Zhang Yi. "What's the situation?" Both Vali and Robert saw that something was wrong and whispered to Zhang Yi.

"Well, God knows. Whatever, if you can win the game, just play like you just did! Zhang Yi knows that what he said is simple, but who knows how Duncan will adjust the team?

Although the Pacers' offense this time was still launched by the point guard, it flashed Zhang Yi and passed to the second position as soon as it passed to the second position after halftime. Duncan wanted to see if Zhang Yi would change his defense because the point guard he replaced was very poor, which the Lakers must have known in their pre-game meeting.

After Philip received the ball, he immediately prepared to single Robert, and Zhang Yi did not hesitate to immediately switch to the second position with his teammates. Faced with this small but very flexible Philip, he did not bend down to mark, but raised his palm high to seal it in front of his opponent's eyes, which was to wait for him to step back.

After that block, Zhang Yi knew that Philip would not choose to break through in front of him. Sure enough, this guy saw the subconscious back foot after changing defenses, and then swung his body out of the three-point line......

But the action that had already been predicted by Zhang Yi had no effect even if it was fast, Philip raised his hand and threw it, and the basketball was immediately blocked by the opponent as soon as he shot.

"Damn, so fast?" Philip was stupid, because Zhang Yi pounced on the block like lightning. And after this cargo got the ball, he strode away and shook off Philip, who is known for his speed, dribbling the ball over half the court and taking off and dunking!

The ball also blew the scene away, as it's impossible for even the most determined Pacers fan not to be amazed by such physical talent.

"He is worthy of being called the successor of Curry Jr.! Zhang Yi's toughness can be seen from this ball! The on-site commentator also said excitedly.

The deepest feeling for this point may be being stealed, and then almost breaking his leg and not catching up with Philip, who finally watched Zhang Yi take off and dunk.

Don't say that Philip doesn't work hard, because he really can't jump up in the end, and all his attention is used to defend back. Seeing Zhang Yi flying up, he didn't even have time to brake, this acceleration and force were unconsciously beyond his personal ability, how else could he defend?

Duncan's expression finally changed a little at this time, but what surprised him was not Zhang Yi's bloody dunk, but the predetermined block.

Philip's feints and retreats have been done perfectly, Zhang Yi is still dead, and the only possibility is that he has already predicted it like himself.

In today's league, Duncan has always thought that Curry Jr. dared to admit that he was second and did not dare to fight for first, but now, after Zhang Yi appears, he is likely to change this situation.

Duncan's judgment was very accurate, and after that, the Lakers were completely in control of the situation. Fast break after fast break, and more importantly, the Pacers suddenly fell into a scoring drought.

As the point difference was tied, Zhang Yi hit a dunk again to lead the Lakers back to the lead. By this time, the game had entered the last minute.

The mentality of the Pacers players has collapsed in the past few minutes, and they have been completely blinded by Zhang Yi and others. But strangely, Duncan didn't call a timeout.

If it were another head coach, it would be impossible to have such courage, because although this is only a regular season game, the opponent is the Lakers, who are now the first in the league, and the Pacers have a good chance to end the opponent's winning streak.

Duncan's mind is now focused on reassessing Zhang Yi's personal abilities. The final result of the match has been placed in second place. It's just that before the game, Duncan has actually arranged the plan for the last attack, so even if there is no timeout, the players still know how to play!

The point guard hoisted the ball straight to the inside, and the Pacers had never played like this throughout the game. Vali almost didn't react, but fortunately, with the advantage of height, he sealed the opponent's shot space to death.

The basketball suddenly flicked, Philip shook off the baseline and Robert caught the ball at a zero degree angle is a three-point shot, only to hear a smack, and the Pacers took the lead again before the end.

There were enthusiastic cheers from the audience, because in the eyes of everyone, they were already invincible in this game.

Duncan thought that Wacker would call a timeout, but he didn't expect the game to continue, and he also left the offense to the players to solve it themselves.

I saw that the Lakers were not as complicated as the Pacers, I saw Zhang Yi dribbling the ball across the half court, two steps away from the three-point line, and the defender hadn't come up yet, so he suddenly shot? The three-pointer draws a perfect arc in the air, the final court lights up, and the basketball hollows into the frame!

The audience was dumbfounded, only Zhang Yi's fans broke out into a thunderous scream, the Los Angeles Lakers narrowly defeated the Pacers by 1 point, and Zhang Yi sent a super long three-point kill!
