Score 235 Loss of fighting spirit

The Big Three can help Zhang Xiaotian attract defensive attention, and Zhang Xiaotian can in turn help other players attract the Pacers' defense.

After Wade scored the point, the Pacers panicked a little, and Wade was caught when he held the ball again.

Then Zhang Xiaotian also hit 2 points after receiving the ball, and the Pacers spend a lot of effort on every offense, but when it comes to the Heat, it seems that it can be solved with a single game.

Of course, it's not pure singles, it's just that the Heat are able to give players who can score better chances.

Walkers can't do it, they don't have the same characteristics.

So often when it comes to the confrontation, they will feel powerless, only played for more than two minutes, Vogel saw that the score gap was going to double digits, so he could only change the main force.

At this time, the Pacers have to let the main force play this trick more.

They didn't shoot that damn three-pointer from the outside, and their offense was good enough for a lot of teams, but there were some problems for a team of the Heat's level.

Paul George hit a three-pointer and he stepped up, but at the same time it was accompanied by two irons.

Paul George has the courage to take responsibility, but he's not a super scorer.

Three minutes later, the Heat also started to play the main line, and James and Bosh were replaced.

The lineup of the Heat's four main players, Garay Allen, is also the opponent's most difficult lineup to defend.

James broke through with the ball, and it didn't seem like a complicated tactic, but the Pacers were not easy to defend, because there were too many people who could give a fatal blow, and James's passing vision was good, the key was that he couldn't withstand it alone when he rushed in.

Ray Allen hit a three-pointer from the ball, and the Heat's lead reached double digits, and several Pacers players suddenly had something broken in their hearts, and they couldn't stand it.

Even if the Heat swept all the way forward, no one believed that their game against the Pacers would play out like this.

Because most of them think that the previous sweep is the reason for the opponent, the Heat just ran into a weak chicken.

But the Pacers' record this season definitely does not belong to the category of weak chickens.

In the final moments, the Pacers didn't show the momentum to fight back, they hit iron from beyond the three-point line, and they made back-to-back turnovers, and they didn't just lose the game.

At 100:87, the Heat defeated their opponent to win the match point.

The Pacers' players have already had the idea of the Heat's invincibility in their minds, and they now just want to retain their dignity and not be swept away.

"We've had a lot of passive situations against the Pacers, and that's what they're good at, they're very good and very powerful defensively. But we had no choice but to get back on our feet and fight back. "With the advantage in hand, Spoelstra is light and breezy.

"Painful failure. We played with a lot of fighting spirit, started very strongly, but then we didn't control the fouls and didn't do as well as the Heat in terms of defensive intensity. Pacers head coach Vogel was helpless.

"I'm not disappointed at all with the Pacers' efforts, just a little disappointed with the result."

"We try to make the team stronger every day, every game." "If you do that, play as well as you can, you're going to be very happy with the result, and that's what we've built over the last couple of years," James said. ”

Zhang Xiaotian looked calm, "As a result, I already knew that there was still one game left in the east." ”

Unlike the Pacers, the Thunder returned home and pulled one back.

Serge Ibaka returned early and gave the team a huge help on the defensive end.

Serge Ibaka pointed to the sky before he came on and the entire home crowd roared in love with him, a few days before he himself even thought he would be able to play.

"When you talk about teammates, Ibaka is all that you would expect from a teammate," Durant said, "and I have more admiration for Ibaka's self-sacrificing behavior for the team, and whatever happens tonight, there's something that comes with you." ”

"Serge has worked so hard throughout the season that he hasn't played for a few days and it hasn't made him lose his touch," said Willis, "and tonight, he played as he did before. ”

After the rebounds in the first two games were exploded, the Thunder led the Spurs 52-36 in rebounding in this game.

"I'm disappointed that no one is stepping up," Spurs head coach Popovich said, "and I'm very disappointed that they killed us in terms of rebounding." ”

"Hopefully Spurs will realise that if we don't have enough intensity and are not in form, then we can't win here." Ginobili said after the game, "The Thunder showed us the coldness of reality, and hopefully we can respond in Game 4 and play better." ”

The fourth game between the Heat and the Pacers has also begun.

Now the outside world no longer sees the Pacers as a threat, but is speculating whether the Heat will sweep the opponent again.

It's already 3:0, maybe they have to go back to their home stadium to win the championship, maybe they have to buy one more ticket.

The Heat understand internally that those speculations from the outside world are nonsense.

Their goal is to win the championship, and every round is over as soon as possible, and as long as they can maintain their form, they are not afraid to face the Spurs.

A stalker like the Pacers, if they can play one less game, it's just one game.

At the Banksy Life Arena, the Pacers played hard, but unlike the previous desperate, they no longer had the belief that they would win.

The Heat still use James as the axis and use his individual offense to drive the overall offense.

Without the desperate faith, it is even crazier on the surface, and a lot of details are missing.

With James' tactics, it's easier to tear apart the opponent's defense.

On the other hand, on offense, the Pacers became impetuous, and hurriedly shot all kinds of irons.

In the first quarter, the Heat led by double digits, which was impossible before.

No matter how strong the Heat's offensive power is, the Pacers are also the best defenders in the league, with individual defense masters at every position and a strong overall defense.

Playing them in double digits when they have a lot of energy is a strong team like the Heat, which is a bit of a strong team, is logically impossible to do, but that's the way it is.

In other words, the pacers, who are known for their tenacity, have also lost confidence.

Many fans sighed, but the scene of the game will not change.

With a 20+ lead at half-time and Paul George also playing out of sorts, the game didn't make much sense anymore.

Vogel roared in the locker room, he didn't want to do that until now, but he didn't want to see his disciples lose their fighting spirit, especially the seedlings of Paul George.

Spoelstra in the Heat's locker room is also chattering that the Eastern Conference championship is in sight and there can be no surprises.
