At the end of the timeout, the Pacers continued to attack with the ball on Ye Xuan's side, but under Soflosa's defense, Ye Xuan's singles became a little more difficult, although he could still use his movement speed advantage and physical confrontation advantage to get opportunities, but once someone came over to wrap up, Ye Xuan had to pass the ball out, and he couldn't do it before, and he still had the strength to make more than a dozen attempts.

Fortunately, Xiao Huangmao hadn't figured out the situation after he came on the court, so Ye Xuan's first attack, Xiao Huangmao didn't come over to wrap Ye Xuan, which also gave Ye Xuan the opportunity to make a shot after forcing a breakthrough. After solidly scoring this offense, the Pacers led by five points.

But turning his head, the Hawks also began to exert their strength, and after no slow movement Korver dragged down the team's rotation, the Hawks suddenly became much smoother on the outside run, and the two on the inside also began to cooperate with the small inside and outside from a small range, converted to the inside and outside, or the inside and outside of the pass and cut cooperation, and for a while the defense of the Pacers side was not able to keep up with the rhythm of the opponent, and was hit by the Hawks 3 balls in a row, Fortunately, in the middle of this, Ye Xuan also used his personal ability to help the Pacers shoot two goals, so that the Pacers still maintain the lead.

However, I have to say that the Eagles played very well in this lineup, and they were very skillful in cooperating, in the remaining minutes of the first quarter, the Eagles continued to play exquisite cooperation, Rao is Ye Xuan also performed well on the offensive end, but it still can't change the outcome of the Pacers being overtaken by the opponent, after the first quarter of the game, the main forces of both sides basically played the first quarter, but the result was a little unacceptable for the Pacers, Because the Pacers, who had been leading for the first eight minutes, were knocked out by their opponents in the next few minutes, and finally trailed their opponents by 5 points at 28:33 and entered the second quarter.

At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the head coaches of both sides invariably replaced the main players to rest, but at this time the advantage of the Hawks was reflected, and Korver and Carroll, who only played half of the game in the first quarter, appeared at this time, and immediately pressed the Pacers' benches to the ground and beat them violently, and it took less than 3 minutes to open the score gap to 10 points.

Coach Frank off the court is very anxious, but there is no way, who said that now the Pacers are no one other than Ye Xuan, no one else can stand up to help the team get out of the predicament, and it should take about 70 days for Pickled Pepper to return, if Pickled Pepper returns, won't his Pacers team want to dominate the league?

But no matter how brilliant he is in the future, it can't change the fact that the Pacers lack a second offensive point now, - one of the two Smith or West can break out, and the Pacers can still play, but in today's game, West and Hibbert can only be tired of defense on the inside, and they don't have the energy to help the team on the offensive end. So in the face of the Hawks, who bloomed more points, the Pacers suddenly jumped when Ye Xuan was resting.

Fortunately, although Ye Xuan played a full game in the first quarter, he still only rested for less than 4 minutes in the second quarter of the game, and after Ye Xuan came on the court, the Pacers immediately stabilized their position, mainly because Ye Xuan was too restrained against a slow-moving fixed-point shooter like Korver, and under Ye Xuan's organization, the Pacers' offense became smooth again. It's a pity that the Eagles won't give Ye Xuan too many opportunities, Ye Xuan just played two rounds on the court, and the Eagles replaced Paul Millsap and Jeff Teague again.

In fact, for the Pacers, whether it is the main lineup or the substitute lineup, in fact, the overall gap is whether Ye Xuan is there or not, and the rest is basically nothing, because when Ye Xuan is on the court, the ball is basically under Ye Xuan's control, whether it is the main force or the substitute, all that needs to be done is to run and then find a gap to prepare to catch the ball, the only difference is that the defensive ability of Solomon Hill and others will be better.

Therefore, after Ye Xuan came on the court, the offensive fluency of the Pacers' side was immediately guaranteed, although the defense was still not good enough, but in the situation that the opponent did not have the main force to do its best, it could still cope with it. I have to say that Scola is really good at this point, no matter how strong the interior line is, Scola can cause some interference to the opponent, the most important thing is that Scola is very smart defensively, and from time to time he can make an offensive foul or something when the opponent is not paying attention. (I guess I also learned it with Battier when I was on Team Rocket.) ）

So in the face of Scola's defense, Millsap was not able to play his due strength, but this situation did not last long, in the second quarter of the game 6 minutes into the game, the Hawks successively replaced Al Horford and Little Yellow Hair and others, although the Pacers also made corresponding personnel adjustments, but still could not block the opponent's sharp offensive cooperation and restrictions on Ye Xuan.

In this way, when the Pacers finished the first half, they were already 13 points behind the opponent unconsciously, in fact, this is not because the Hawks are really strong, but because the offensive strategy of the Pacers feels that the opponent has been thoroughly explored, so Sofrosa and Xiao Huangmao are very good at restricting Ye Xuan, although Ye Xuan is still in many difficulties, he got 17 points and 6 assists in the half, but 14 shots plus 3 turnovers also made the Pacers very injured.

The commentators on the sidelines also felt that the Hawks were restrained against the Pacers in this game, so they also began to analyze it at halftime, "As we all know, the Pacers rely on their current ace player this season, Ye Xuan. And for many teams, Ye Xuan's point is also a headache for them, because you can't successfully restrain him in one-on-one, probably only God and Leonard can prevent him, right? However, we can see from this game that the Hawks have done a very good job of restricting Ye Xuan, with a shooting percentage of 6 out of 14 and 3 turnovers, which is Ye Xuan's worst half-time data this season except for the Spurs. ”
