"Today's game was really exciting."

After the whistle blew at the end of the third quarter of the game, the reporters on the sidelines of the press booth still had an unfinished expression, Meng Xu and Arenas in the third quarter of the game was also very exciting, but a little regrettable, as Meng Xu strengthened the defensive intensity of Arenas, Arenas's shooting rate in the third quarter of the game also dropped a lot, from 9 shots in the second quarter to 4 of 11 shots in the third quarter, Arenas's shooting rate dropped a lot, However, Arenas still scored 12 points in the third quarter.

"It's not just exciting, it's crazy, I really wish every playoff game could be like this." Arenas shot 15 of 29, 7 of 15 three-pointers, 5 of 7 free throws, and scored 42 points in the third quarter of the game.

"What's the situation, why don't Meng and Gilbert play yet!" However, what made these reporters anxious was that after the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Meng Xu and Arenas both sat on the bench, and the two people who played the first three quarters of the game did need to rest for a while to accumulate some physical strength for the final moments of the game, but these reporters didn't care about this, they couldn't wait for Meng Xu and Arenas to play the whole game.

Finally, after the official timeout of the game in the fourth quarter, the Pacers and Wizards switched to all the main lineups and prepared to start the final showdown, and these reporters who had been waiting a little impatiently also showed a smile of anticipation.

As for Arenas, who had re-embarked on it, it was obvious that his hands were trembling now, of course, it was not nervousness, let alone fear, but excitement, just when Arenas was still thinking in his mind, whether Meng Xu was the same as himself at this moment, Meng Xu appeared in Arenas's sight, and it was obvious that Arenas did not see an excited look on Meng Xu's face, but saw a face without the slightest expression.

"Hey, the Pacers changed their guards?" When the game restarted, Michaels found that the Pacers' defensive strategy in the final moments of the game had changed, and it was Tyshawn Prince who stood in front of Arenas, and Meng Xu ran to defend Antoine Jamison.

"With Tyshawn Prince to defend Arenas, then Meng Xu can focus more on the offensive end, and it looks like Rick Carlisle is ready to reap the game." Magic Johnson has obviously seen through the Pacers' intentions, so Magic Johnson is also looking forward to how Eddie Jordan can respond, if he can't even do a passive move, then Eddie Jordan is obviously not suitable to lead a playoff team.

And Magic Johnson still has some doubts about Rick Carlisle's plan to harvest the game, even Meng Xu can't completely restrict Arenas in person, where does Rick Carlisle get the confidence to expect Tyshawn Prince to be able to limit Arenas? can't restrain Arenas, so what will Meng Xu use to harvest the game? Unless the Pacers or Meng Xu can show a higher and more efficient offensive ability than the Wizards and Arenas, but is this possible?

Just when Magic Yue was still thinking repeatedly, whether he missed something and didn't think of it, the game on the court had already begun, and Eddie Jordan obviously disappointed Magic Johnson, Eddie Jordan, who was standing on the sidelines, did not make any reaction in front of the Pacers' wheel battle, obviously preparing to let Arenas continue to hold the ball and play alone, of course, it is not excluded that Eddie Jordan only trusts Arenas at this time, although the NBA has developed so far, a lot of tactics have been born, But most teams will still let the superstar of the team play alone with the ball in the final moments of the game.

The same is true on the defensive end, when a team has a superstar who is very strong defensively, he will also defend the player with the best scoring ability on the opposite side in the final minute of the game, and this is the superstar moment.

But in today's game, there was no exciting superstar moment, because of his height, Arenas could not defend Meng Xu, and on the Pacers' side, after Meng Xu defended Arenas for two quarters, Rick Carlisle suddenly made a substitution at the last moment of the game and arranged for Tyshawn Prince to defend Arenas.

"The Pacers' outside defensive strength is too strong, any one pulled out has top-level outside defensive strength, this kind of wheel battle can not only maximize the consumption of Arenas's physical strength, but also allow Meng Xu to save physical strength and devote his energy to the offensive end." There is also a very important point that Michaels did not say, that is, this kind of wheel battle is easy to interfere with the rhythm of offensive players, after all, the defensive rhythm and range of action of each defender, as well as the action habits are completely different, just like now, after two quarters of alignment, Arenas has adapted to Meng Xu's defensive rhythm very well, but when the defense of Arenas becomes Tysean Prince, Arenas needs time to adapt to the defensive rhythm of Tyshawn Prince.

"Antoine, you worked really hard today, but we all know that you can't stop me." Switching offense and defense, Meng Xu, who leaned sideways on Antoine Jamison, after receiving a pass from his teammates, slapped the basketball in his hand rhythmically, and did not forget to hit Antoine Jamison.

"Meng Xu's rhythm of the game!" Looking at Meng Xu, who obviously became a little different at the moment of dribbling and turning, Magic Johnson on the sideline commentary seat almost stood up, in the second and third quarters of the game, Magic Johnson originally thought that Meng Xu had done his best, but now Magic Johnson found out that Meng Xu had 100% reservations in the previous game.

"It's unbelievable, could it be that Meng Xu has already reached that level?" Looking at Meng Xu's control of the situation on the court, feeling the seemingly nonexistent momentum exuded by Meng Xu, Magic Johnson can no longer care about this game, Magic Johnson is now eager to know whether Meng Xu has reached the level that he did not reach back then, and the NBA has only Michael Jordan reached the level that has been reached by Michael Jordan alone.

"It's so strong, can't I really fight him?" Antoine Jamison, who was directly crushed by Meng Xu, also felt the self-respecting momentum exuded by Meng Xu's body, and even at the moment of physical contact with Meng Xu, Antoine Jamison's body instinctively contracted, as if Antoine Jamison was very afraid of physical confrontation with Meng Xu in his bones.

"The Wizards don't have a chance." Although after Meng Xu scored this goal, the Pacers were only 2 points ahead of the Wizards, and now there are about 5 minutes left before the end of the game, but after Meng Xu showed all his strength, showing his game realm that is higher than everyone else, and the momentum of looking down on the world, Magic Johnson knew that the Wizards had no chance, and in front of such a Meng Xu, no one had any chance.

"What a pity." Looking at Arenas, who was still working hard, Magic Johnson shook his head helplessly, maybe this is not the right time!
