Chapter 378: Indiana Track and Field Team

"Kenyon Martin sent a quick baseline shot, Corey Kidders made a direct long pass to Keith Van Horn below the center circle, Van Horn got rid of Reggie Miller's defense and gave the ball to Richard Jefferson, who rushed straight to the basket and hit a layup to bring the score back for the Nets." After scoring an empty dunk, Lorenzen White was still waving his arms to vent his emotions, and the Nets had taken this opportunity to quickly send out the baseline ball and directly launched a fast break, although Reggie Miller and Meng Xu's defense was very timely, but there was still no way to stop Richard Jefferson's layup.

"It was so careless." After Lorenzen White got off the basket, Meng Xu was about to high-five him, but found that Kenyon Martin quickly picked up the basketball and walked to the bottom line, and Meng Xu, who noticed that something was wrong, immediately went to block Jason Kidd, who was closest to the baseline, but Kenyon Martin passed the basketball directly to Corey Kidders at the top of the arc, and when Meng Xu accelerated to the top of the arc, Richard Jefferson had already completed the layup, and after seeing Richard Jefferson landing, the slightly arrogant celebration posture, Meng Xu felt uncomfortable for a while.

"Sure enough, you want to win us by running and bombing? It's just a dream. After a few minutes of this game, the Nets' tactical intentions were finally fully exposed, because Byron Scott gave Eddie Jordan and Rick Adelman as assistant coaches, so after the game started, Larry Bird was still wondering if the Nets were going to play Princeton tactics, after all, the King and Princeton are the most popular in the entire league now, but what Larry Bird didn't expect was that Byron Scott was willing to play near and far, so see here, Larry Bird is completely relieved, after all, even if the Pacers encounter the authentic Suns and Mavericks, they will not fall behind at all, let alone the Nets, who are halfway home.

Byron Scott, who was standing on the sidelines at this moment, put his hands on his chest, frowned slightly, and looked at the game in progress on the court motionlessly, relying on run-and-gun tactics and quick counterattacks, the Nets did catch the Pacers off guard after the opening, but unlike what he imagined, Larry Bird did not immediately call a timeout to adjust, and the Pacers players on the court did not show the slightest panic, but continued to implement their tactics step by step.

In fact, before the start of the playoffs, Byron Scott practiced Princeton tactics with the Nets, wanting to surprise the Pacers in the playoffs, after all, in several games in the regular season, it has been proved that the Nets and the Pacers have only a dead end in a positional battle, and his teacher Adelman has successfully proved the power of Princeton's tactics in the King, and he is also very familiar with Princeton's tactics, but the result is that Byron Scott is extremely frustrated, There was simply no axis like Chris Webber in the Nets, so the result of forcibly promoting Princeton in the Nets was that the team became very chaotic, not only losing its stubborn defense, but also the team's offense becoming less smooth.

Therefore, after half a month of experimentation, Byron Scott finally gave up on Princeton and chose another small-ball strategy, because Kidd is the core of the run-and-gun tactics in the Suns, so Byron Scott also copied this tactic very successfully in the Nets, and the run-and-gun tactics are also the Nets' last hole card. In the first and second rounds of the playoffs, no matter how difficult the team's situation is, Byron Scott did not think of using this hole card in advance, in order to use it unexpectedly today, in the series with the Pacers, and then take away an away from here, so that in this round of the series, the Nets have an advantage, and the current result is really good, but Byron Scott does not have any joy at the moment, but looks at the court worriedly, because Byron Scott can obviously see, The Pacers have gradually come to their senses, and their ability to control the tempo is so strong that in just a few rounds, they have moved the pace back of the game, and not only that, but it has started to develop in their favor.

"Huh, Larry called a timeout?" Just when the situation on the field was about to be reversed, the referee's whistle sounded, and what puzzled Michaels was that this timeout was actually called by Larry Bird, who did not call a timeout when the situation was unfavorable just now, and saw that the team was about to get up, but called a timeout to interrupt himself, Larry Bird's timeout, it was really weird.

"What is this guy doing?" Not only Michaels on the commentary bench, but even Byron Scott on the sidelines don't know what to do now, because he was already hesitating to call a timeout to adjust just now, but Larry Bird called a timeout before him, but just now, he took advantage of this timeout to adjust slightly.

"Guys, you guys just played great, but we still have to adjust, Lorenzen and Reggie, you guys get off the court for a while, James, you Bobby comes off the bench, and since these New Jerseys want to run, let them see how good our Indiana track and field team is." After the words fell, Larry Bird couldn't control his laughter, the Indiana track and field team is the Indiana media's joking name for the Pacers, the reason is that in the team physical test at the beginning of this season, among the 15 players on the Pacers' team, 4 of them ran into 11 seconds in the 100-meter time, and Meng Xu was very exaggerated to reach 10.24 seconds, second only to Iverson's 10.13 seconds, becoming the second fastest player in the NBA league, you must know that Meng Xu is more than two meters tall, A strong man who weighed 100 kilograms, so when the walker's physical test table was leaked, although it was questioned by many media, saying that the walker's physical test report was fake, the nickname of the Indiana track and field team still came out.

After Larry Bird, the Pacers also laughed on the bench, causing the surrounding fans to turn their attention to this side, and the originally tense atmosphere was greatly eased, and Reggie Miller even ripped off the towel from his head and covered his mouth directly.

"The Pacers have also changed formations? Is Larry Bird going to play against the Nets? When the timeout ended, watching the Pacers also send a small lineup, Myer Daniels also began to guess the intention of Larry Bird's move, the Pacers' tactics just now were completely no problem, although the Nets had the upper hand in a short period of time, but they have obviously moved the situation back, as long as it continues, it is only a matter of time before they have the advantage.

"Larry's trick is really ruthless." After a short period of thought, Magic Johnson, who saw through Larry Bird's intentions, shook his head with a regretful expression, and in the next game, if Larry Bird succeeded, the Nets would have no chance to turn over in this series.

Jermaine O'Neal sent the sideline ball, he cut directly to the basket, taking advantage of the chaotic moment after the free throw, Jamal Tinsley, who got the ball, immediately took the opportunity to hand the ball to Meng Xu behind him, and Meng Xu didn't look at it, and directly threw the basketball in the direction of the basket, Jermaine O'Neal appeared there just right, Jermaine O'Neal, who was flying in the air, grabbed the basketball with one hand and dunked it into the basket, the whole process took only 4 seconds, and the Pacers completed the offense.

After completing the offense, the Pacers' players did not hesitate at all, quickly retreated, when the Nets sent the baseline ball, the Pacers had already had 3 players retreat to the center circle, and when they passed the basketball through the center circle as fast as possible, the Pacers four players except Jermaine O'Neal had already returned to the defense, Richard Jefferson, who was in the front, had to stop in place, and the Nets could only slow down and play a positional battle with the Pacers.

"It's really the Indiana track and field team." Looking at the Pacers who restarted the game and accelerated in an instant, Michaels said jokingly that if the Pacers' physical test report is true, the Pacers' four players with a 100-meter score of less than 11 seconds have all appeared on the court now, even the worst Jermaine O'Neal, his 100-meter score is also an amazing 11.22 seconds, which is already the 100-meter result of many small forwards, and the Indiana track and field team is absolutely worthy of its name.
