"Meng, do you want to continue to play later?" At the end of the third quarter of the game, after all the Pacers players on the court left the court, head coach Rick Carlisle immediately grabbed Meng Xu after handing him a towel and asked Meng Xu if he needed to rest for a while.

Although the Nets launched several counterattacks in the third quarter, the Nets not only failed to narrow the difference, but were expanded to 10 points by the Pacers, originally at this time, Rick Carlisle would definitely arrange for the main players to rest for a few minutes at the beginning of the fourth quarter, but Meng Xu had already scored 54 points after the end of the third quarter of the game, so Rick Carlisle also wanted to ask Meng Xu's attitude, after all, the single-game scoring record in the playoffs is in front of you, and there are really few players who can resist this temptation, Although there is still a full quarter to end in this game, if the Pacers' substitute comes on the court, a wave will bring the game into garbage time, with Meng Xu's current identity and status, he will definitely not be able to let go of his body and brush up points in garbage time in order to break the record.

"Let's take a break." Contrary to Rick Carlisle's guess, Meng Xu doesn't have the slightest intention of breaking the record now, after all, the single-game scoring record in the playoffs and finals is still set by Meng Xu, even if it is broken, it will only improve this record by a few points, and Meng Xu doesn't want to be added to the negative state of three games.

"Okay, you just hurry up and rest for a few minutes." After hearing Meng Xu's answer, Rick Carlisle also made a decision, turned around and signaled assistant coach Lester Connell to arrange substitute players according to the original tactics.

Although the Nets are still 10 points behind, whether it is the Nets players or the Nets fans on the scene, they obviously did not give up, and the moment the players on both sides stepped on the court, the Continental Airlines Arena resounded with cheers, and when the Pacers' backup point guard Kenny Anderson began to advance with the ball, it was replaced by a wave of "defense" sounds, and the Nets fans on the scene cheered for their teams with almost hoarse roars.

"I don't know why, but I'm really looking forward to the Nets being able to close the score or overtake it." Looking at the semi-main lineup of the Pacers bench vs. Nets that was going on on the court, Michaels smiled and said his dark thoughts.

"Actually, that's what I'm thinking now." After a burst of laughter, Magic Johnson smiled at Michaels next to him. Whether it is Michaels or Magic Johnson, they are very much looking forward to witnessing a playoff 60+ today, so these two guys are now incarnated as staunch supporters of the Nets, hoping that the Nets can take advantage of the Pacers' main lineup to play a wave of climax during the break, and then force Meng Xu to play, so that Meng Xu can smoothly brush a playoff 60+, then today's game is very perfect.

"It's finally time to play." It is also in vain the expectations of Magic Johnson and Michaels, after Jermaine O'Neal and Mutombo are out of the rest, Kenyon Martin's state can be described as God blocking and killing God, Buddha blocking and killing Buddha, in just three minutes, Kenyon Martin shot 3 of 4, and scored 7 points with free throws, and took the Nets to beat the Pacers a 9-4 small climax, and after the difference between the two sides was narrowed to only 5 points, Rick Carlisle quickly called a timeout and changed to the main lineup. However, a slight difference from the starting lineup of this game, Rick Carlisle did not send on Mutombo and Reggie Miller after the timeout, but replaced them with NN Hilario and Tyshawn Prince.

"Hey, the Nets are clamping Meng Xu?" After the game restarted, Michaels noticed a change in the Nets' tactics, unlike the previous one who used Robert Packery to defend Meng Xu throughout the game, Lawrence Frank replaced Robert Peck with Richard Jefferson after a timeout to defend Meng Xu, and after Meng Xu dribbled close to the top of the arc, Jason Kidd, who was closest to Meng Xu, quickly wrapped up.

"It's a very smart choice!" Although after the Nets changed their defensive strategy, it was definitely impossible for Meng Xu to score as easily as in the previous game, but for Lawrence Frank's sudden change, Magic Johnson still very much agreed.

Meng Xu, who was trapped, immediately passed the basketball in his hand to Tyshawn Prince on his left side, and he ran towards the right side of the court, and after covering each other with James Posey, Meng Xu got rid of Richard Jefferson behind him, but when the basketball appeared in Meng Xu's hands again, Kenyon Martin's reinforcement was also in place.

Glancing at Jermaine O'Neal, who passed the ball for himself, Meng Xu smiled and shook his head, whether it was Tyshawn Prince facing Jason Kidd or Jermaine O'Neal facing Jason Collins just now, it was actually a very good single opportunity, but neither of these guys made a shot. Meng Xu knows very well that after he scored 54 points, his teammates also very much hope that Meng Xu can make persistent efforts to score a 60+, or even break his single-game record of 64 points.

However, Meng Xu is really not interested in breaking the record now, so after Kenyon Martin made up the defense in place and Richard Jefferson also began to pounce on Meng Xu, Meng Xu quickly passed the basketball to James Posey, who had already appeared vacant, but it was very embarrassing that James Posey made a move to attract Richard Jefferson back to defense, and then passed the basketball back to Meng Xu, and shouted at Meng Xu at the same time: "It's almost 20 seconds." ”

After glancing at the timer and seeing that the stopwatch had reached 18, Meng Xu had to give up his plan to pass the ball, and instead directly held the ball with his back to defend his Kenyon Martin.

“1，2，3。。。。。。” While constantly leaning towards Kenyon Martin behind him, he silently counted the number of times he had his back in his heart, and when he counted to 3, Meng Xu clearly felt that there was a vacancy behind him, and after making a feint to turn around towards the left side of his body, Meng Xu quickly turned to the right side of his body, and then threw the basketball in his hand towards the rebound.

"Beautiful! Pretty, pretty, it's a textbook back-to-back jumper. When Meng Xu's back turned and hit a jumper, the boos at the Continental Airlines Arena came to an abrupt end, and Michaels on the commentary bench stood up directly from his seat, applauding and saying a few beautiful words in a row.

"I really don't know, how this guy's back is trained, if you don't see it with your own eyes, I thought the person just now was Tim Duncan of the Spurs, in addition to the difference in body shape, the rhythm of their dribbling, the speed of turning, the arc of the shot, and even the position of the board are almost exactly the same."

"Elwin, isn't this the exclusive skill of Wake Forest? Ha ha...... ”

"Is this bastard really an outsider?" Compared with Michaels and Magic Johnson, who were happily discussing Meng Xu's shooting just now, Kenyon Martin, who was the victim, is obviously not happy now, Meng Xu's strength is very strong, Kenyon Martin knows, but when Meng Xu singled himself with his back, and finally put himself out of position, Kenyon Martin felt that his three views were a little collapsed, this is an outside line? Is this an outside line? Is this an outside line? After shouting in his heart several times in a row, Kenyon Martin had to tell himself that this TM was an outside line, and it was an out-of-position outside line that could top himself with his back.

"Kenyan, don't be in a daze, it's time for us to attack." Just when Kenyon Martin was still recalling the scene when Meng Xu singled himself just now, Jason Kidd, who had already received Jason Collins' base-line ball, shouted at Kenyon Martin, who was still in a daze.

Kidd, who dribbled to the front court under Meng Xu's pressure, quickly made a block with Kenyon Martin, and after successfully forcing the Pacers to switch defenses, Kidd passed the basketball back to Kenyon Martin, because it is Meng Xu who is defending Kenyon Martin now, no matter what the purpose, there is always nothing wrong with Kenyon Martin misplaced and singled Meng Xu.

Kenyon Martin, who leaned on Meng Xu sideways, quickly rose in his heart after receiving Kidd's pass, and his heart quickly rose up to plan to return it, although Kenyon Martin's back skills are not good, but Kenyon Martin does not think that his back can not even play an outside line, even if his defense is very good, and the strength is also very strong, but the outside line is always the outside line, and when defending the inside player who is more than 10 centimeters higher than himself, the outside player is inherently weak.

After making up his mind, Kenyon Martin unceremoniously turned his back to Meng Xu, ready to push Meng Xu into the paint area all the time, and let out a good breath.

'Huh, it's so easy? Kenyon Martin hadn't used all his strength yet, and he felt that Meng Xu, who was originally sticking to himself behind his back, had already been pushed away by himself, so Kenyon Martin instantly had an unreal feeling, after all, when Meng Xu hit himself with his back just now, the power was surprisingly good, why was he out of position now just a light push?

"Since you're so unbearable, don't blame me!" Don't think about it, after feeling that Meng Xu had been pushed away by himself, Kenyon Martin quickly began to turn around.

"What?" After turning around, Kenyon Martin found that Meng Xu was still very tight on himself, and he had obviously pushed him away just now? Why is he still in front of him after he turns around?

Originally, he was going to break through Meng Xu and rush to the basket after completing the turn, but under this sudden change, he had to jump very reluctantly near the free throw line, not that Kenyon Martin didn't want to pass, but Kenyon Martin, who was already a little confused at this time, had completely forgotten that there was the option of passing.

But just after Kenyon Martin jumped, a scene that he regretted for several days appeared, almost at the moment when Kenyon Martin jumped, Meng Xu, who was close to Kenyon Martin, also jumped up, and the basketball held high by Kenyon Martin was slapped on it by a palm before he could shoot.

"Boy, your back singles are really bad, come and learn back with me this summer, I won't charge you tuition!" Meng Xu's seemingly very calm tone, in Kenyon Martin's opinion, is undoubtedly a great irony, an outside player to teach himself back skills? It seems like a fantasy, but Kenyon Martin really doesn't know how to refute it now, because judging from the round just now, his back body skills are really inferior to him!

"I'll go, you'll come back!" In the next game, after several attacks, Kenyon Martin had to defend Meng Xu, who singled himself with his back, what about the bag? What about my teammates? Where are you? Come and help me, I really can't handle this pervert!

"Lawrence, what are we going to do?" Seeing that Meng Xu succeeded in beating Kenyon Martin with his back again, increasing his single-game score to 60 points, the assistant coach standing next to Lawrence Frank couldn't hold his breath anymore, and now he has 60 points, with Meng Xu's current feel and state, if he continues to play like this, not to mention breaking the single-game scoring record of 64 points, it is possible to score 70+, but once the Nets desperately wrap Meng Xu up to prevent Meng Xu from continuing to score, Then it means that the Nets are going to give up this game, and such a decision, an assistant coach will definitely not be able to decide.

"Ugh." After hearing the boos from the audience, Lawrence Frank knew that he had to make a decision, after Meng Xu scored 60 points, the Continental Airlines Arena sounded a full boo, Lawrence Frank knew very well that this boo was not for Meng Xu, but for himself, and the fans who had just supported themselves and supported the Nets turned against each other at this moment.

Soon when Meng Xu held the ball again, the cheers on the scene also proved Lawrence Frank's guess, his skills are not as good as others, and it is just a matter of losing the game, if Meng Xu really breaks the playoff scoring record here, it will be a shame that can never be erased.

Although he was unwilling to give up, after a fierce battle of ideas, Lawrence Frank finally nodded to the assistant coach next to him, and all of them went up to block him from continuing to score.

After the Nets desperately sandwiched Meng Xu with multiple people, Meng Xu was very empathetic and gave up his intention to continue scoring, and finally with 5 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Meng Xu took the initiative to apply for the game and fixed his single-game score at 60 points.
