Chapter 169: Psychological Mentor Ye Xuan (Daily Second Update)

The Spurs had no choice but to call a timeout to make personnel adjustments, first of all, Dio was replaced, when Duncan was present, Dio's high position response threat was much smaller, so Zhuge Vic replaced him with Split, and then replaced Ginobili with Danny Green, because when Leonard was arranged to defend Ye Xuan, the position of the bald man and the pickled pepper was still obviously at a disadvantage, so the old man had to replace the bald man.

At the end of the timeout, the game restarted, the Spurs served on the sideline, Parker quickly passed the ball to Leonard in the high post, kawaii did not choose to force a single Hill after receiving the ball, but passed the ball to Split on the inside, and then quickly rushed to the inside, using the opponent's inertial thinking, successfully got rid of Solomon Hill's defense, and Split brushed back the basketball in a moment, and then scored the ball with a three-step layup.

In the next two rounds, Hill's hand finally dropped, and he failed to throw the ball in two consecutive passes, which also made Zhuge Vic breathe a sigh of relief on the field. After all, if Hill still maintains the hot hand just now, the Spurs have no chance of winning this game.

In the blink of an eye, the time came to the advertising timeout of the second quarter of the game, and the Pacers were seized by the opponent to overtake the score due to Hill's two iron hits, and now they are one point behind the opponent with a score of 45:46, and because Hibbert was also whistled for a rebounding foul after Hill's second iron hit, the ball is also with the Spurs.

The timeout time passed in a blink of an eye, and the Spurs' offensive strategy was changed and changed, and the changeable offensive point was also one of the secrets of the Spurs' ability to reach the Finals.

After the Pacers found that Hill's style was gone, they immediately changed their offensive focus. After Ye Xuan controlled the ball and came to the front court, he handed the ball to Pickled Pepper, and then he started a crazy running career again. I have to say that Ye Xuan's off-ball running is blessed by 'Alan Houston's off-ball running talent'. It had a good effect, and a few sudden back-runs down not only made Leonard a little nervous, but also the Spurs' defensive formation was torn apart.

Pickled Pepper took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's defensive formation being torn apart by Ye Xuan and forcibly broke through, although the Spurs had replaced Danny Green, who was similar to Pickled Pepper, in order to defend Pickled Pepper, but still failed to interfere with Pickled Pepper too much, after passing Danny Green, Pickled Pepper found that the opponent's inner line had actually been attracted to the other side by Ye Xuan, so Pickled Pepper was not polite, and a relaxed one-arm dunk ended the attack.

After making some adjustments, the Spurs quickly returned to their familiar rhythm, and the speed of breaking through and transferring the ball on the offensive end became smooth, which instantly caused a lot of pressure on the Pacers' defense, and after the Spurs used the transfer ball to shoot three points in two consecutive rounds, the Pacers also had to make some personnel adjustments, replacing Solomon Hill, who had been playing for almost 10 minutes, with another Hill.

With less than 4 minutes left in the second quarter, the Pacers finally returned to the lineup they had at the beginning, Ye Xuan returned to the scoring guard and began to concentrate on running without the ball, while the Pacers performed well on the offensive end with George Hill's organization.

However, the problem on the defensive end has still not been solved, once the opponent's ball is transferred, the Pacers' defense will often leak, and then the opponent will lead the nose and keep making up the defense, but how can people run fast with the ball, and after a few more transmissions, the Pacers' defense will be torn apart again.

This is undoubtedly unacceptable for a team that conceded less than 93 points per game during the regular season and has the second best defensive efficiency in the league. However, the game is still going on, and Coach Frank has not been able to come up with any good solutions in a short period of time, so he can only hope that the players on the field can gradually become familiar with the opponent's attacking methods, and then find loopholes, so as to prevent the opponent, as for the adjustment, we can only wait until halftime.

Fortunately, the Pacers' offense also made the opponent feel very tricky, although Ye Xuan was limited by Leonard, but he was still able to rely on his off-ball running to create opportunities for the team, which is also a helpless point for the Spurs, and the Pacers' George Hill and Pickled Pepper feel pretty good, which is also the key to the Pacers' ability to keep the point difference within an acceptable range.

At the end of the second quarter, the Pacers trailed the opponent by 4 points at 58:62, and the first half of the whole quarter was almost a heads-up performance by Solomon Hill and Leonard, and the second half of the game belonged to the team basketball of the two teams, because in the next 4 minutes, the scoring of both teams basically relied on the shooting after the transmission.

Finally going into half-time, both teams went back to the dressing room to make adjustments. On the Pacers' side, they need to use this halftime to solve the 'traitor' on their team. As soon as he returned to the locker room, Coach Frank's anger couldn't be suppressed, and he sprayed at Lance, and Lance's indifferent expression also made Ye Xuan on the side feel a little unbearable.

So Ye Xuan took the initiative to discuss with Frank Vogel, and then called Lance directly to the physiotherapy room next to the locker room. Although Stephenson looked reluctant, he thought that Ye Xuan was still helping him brush up points on his youngest son's birthday, so he reluctantly followed Ye Xuan out.

As soon as he arrived at the physiotherapy room, Ye Xuan immediately locked the door, and then asked directly with an unhappy face, "What do you mean?" Don't you want us to get a championship ring? Why make such an immature move in such an important game, on such an important occasion? Are you a spy sent by the Spurs? It's in vain that I trust you so much, pass you the ball, and treat you as a friend, and then you repay me like this. ”
