When it comes to the time between the two teams on the bench, the Pelicans are even less of an opponent, although the Pelicans arranged Anthony to lead the bench to play, but in the face of the Pacers' luxury bench lineup, the Pelicans are still a little powerless, and the Pacers' bench lineup is estimated to be able to play the starting lineup in the fish belly team, led by Rondo, and then Solomon Hill, Iman Shambaugh, Smith and Ian Masimmi. Rondo was an All-Star, while Solomon Hill was the main junior for the Pacers last season, and Smith was back in form for the Pacers, and last season he was only slightly behind Louis Williams in the race for the Sixth Man of the Year, ranking second.

Although the Pelicans have Anthony as the anchor and a good player like Cunningham as a helper, but in the face of the Pacers' bench lineup, there is no way to bargain, and in just 4 minutes of meeting time, the Pacers once again scored 5 more points than their opponents. After more than four points in the second quarter, the Pacers replaced their main players. By this time, the Pacers were already leading by as many as 12 points.

However, I have to say that the reason why the Pelicans were able to play 6 games with the Warriors still has his reasons, after Anthony Davis played again, he suddenly began to explode, and suddenly found a feeling on the outside, hitting two three-pointers in a row, and directly pulled the suspense of the game back. This season, the Pelicans' outside shooters are indeed relatively powerful, although the lineups of the two teams have basically not changed in the second quarter, but the results have changed, and in the rest of the second quarter, the Pelicans have been powerful on the outside, hitting 6 three-pointers wildly, and directly equalizing the difference.

The Pacers' offense was a bit chaotic at the beginning, and I don't know if it was because everyone hadn't fully adapted to the new season, but fortunately, after Coach Frank replaced Rondo and Jordan Hill with Myles Turner and Solomon Hill, the Pacers' offensive efficiency has obviously improved, and everyone is still more skilled when cooperating with Ye Xuan.

At the end of the first half, the Pacers only led the opponent by 1 point, and the Pacers scored a total of 59 points in the first half, of which Ye Xuan contributed 17 points and 4 assists, and Pickled Pepper's offensive efficiency was also very good today, with 13 points, 3 assists and 5 rebounds in the first half, and the Pacers' other main Rondo data is much more bizarre, he only scored 4 points in the first half today, two layups, However, he has already obtained 9 assists in the first half by passing to Ye Xuan and Pickle Pepper, and Long Center is obviously not in vain, a small point guard actually grabbed 6 rebounds in the first half, more than Pickle Pepper and Jordan Hill, only Anthony Davis's 8 rebounds and the boxing king's 7 rebounds were more than Rondo.

The Pelicans' perimeter players were much worse, Holiday only hit two of his seven shots in the first half, and Gordon had a decent three-point shooting rate for a while, but overall it was still not ideal, and he shot the same 7 shots, but only hit three shots. And Anthony is even worse, because he was still heavily guarded by Solomon Hill when he led the bench, so although he scored 16 points in the first half, he has already made 12 shots, although 5 of 12 shots are not too low, but it is still not enough for Anthony. Fortunately, the Pelicans' two interior players are still powerful, Anderson hit four of the six shots, which is very efficient, and Anthony Davis has scored 16 points plus 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks, so the Pelicans were able to play a five-to-five game with the Pacers in the first half.

The Pacers began to figure out a way to start the second half, and Coach Frank gave up on the idea of having Rondo and Pickles on the court, putting Rondo on the bench and replacing Solomon Hill. The Pacers served from the bottom line, this time Ye Xuan handed the ball to Pickled Pepper to deal with, Solomon Hill waited for an opportunity in the bottom left corner and opened up a vacant space for Pickled Pepper, Pickled Pepper singled Anthony, but unfortunately the shot was high and the shot was missed, but Tyson Chandler jumped up and grabbed the frontcourt rebound and sent the ball directly to Ye Xuan's hands, Ye Xuan received the ball and broke through again, and successfully attracted Anthony Davis after hitting the inside line, Ye Xuan didn't dare to force the basket now, compared to Davis was the hat king last season, So he drew the ball to the free Tyson Chandler after attracting the defense of the thick eyebrows, and Chandler received the ball and smashed it with both hands.

Looking back, the Pacers learned the lessons of the first half and strengthened the protection of the interior, making it difficult for Anthony Davis to get the ball on the inside, and after he got to the outside, although he was able to receive the ball, his outside ball holding singles was still not threatening, so the pressure on the Pacers was suddenly a lot less. However, the Pelicans also have a way to deal with it, because all five of them can float on the outside and wait for an opportunity when they attack, so the Pacers' defense has to follow, so that the interior line is empty, and after vacating the interior line, Anthony's chance to play alone comes.

Holiday took possession of the ball and went to the front court, handed the ball to Anthony to deal with, Anthony took a tentative step in front of the pickled pepper and then pulled the ball to the left, and forced a shot to the side with a jump step to open up a little distance. Although Pickles tried his best to block the block, Anthony still hit the mid-range shot. Anthony shrugged his shoulders at the pickled pepper and said, no way, brother is so accurate. Pickled pepper also shook his head, no way, this kind of fairy ball can also enter, and he can't do anything about it.

Then, Ye Xuan held the ball and forced Holiday to break through, and the small steel cannon Gordon on the side immediately came over to make up for the defense, Ye Xuan saw that he couldn't take advantage, so he could only distribute the ball to Solomon Hill, who had just been replaced on the field, and then rushed in. Holiday hurriedly went over to make up for the defense, Hill saw Felton who pounced, and quickly divided the ball to Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan raised his hand and hit a three-point "Huh"! Also in.

The two teams immediately entered a state of mutual explosion, and the Pacers also saw that the situation was not very good, so they immediately wanted to adjust the personnel, and after Anthony once again held the ball and made a foul on Solomon Hill, the Pacers decisively replaced Jordan Hill and replaced it with their traded rookie Myles Turner, Turner is not particularly dominant when defending interior players, But Ryan Anderson, who he needs to deal with now, is a three-point power forward, so it would be a good decision to switch to Myles Turner, who is more flexible on the foot and can also pose more danger to opponents on the offensive end.

After the substitution, Anthony stepped onto the free throw line and made both free throws safely. In the next few rounds, both sides felt a little bit back, Anthony was disrupted by Pickles on two consecutive shots, and the Pacers' two shots were also iron. In the next round, Ye Xuan controlled the ball and came to the front court, in the face of Holiday defense, Ye Xuan called Myles Turner to help block and dismantle, in the moment when the two staggered, Ye Xuan handed the ball to Turner, Anderson, who came to make up for the defense, saw that Ye Xuan had no ball in his hand, and hurried to Pastner, while Holiday was blocked by Scola, it was too late to make up for Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan cut inward, Myers Turner completed the block and hit the ground with an elegant turn, Ye Xuan's ball arrived, one-handed split, and then the next city.

Turner did play a good role after he came on the court, at least after blocking and dismantling, Turner's ability to receive the ball from the outside was also able to threaten the opponent's ability again, which made the opponent dare not easily trap Ye Xuan, so this also allowed the Pacers to take the lead again in the middle of the third quarter. In the ninth minute of the third quarter, the two teams began to make substitutions, the Pacers replaced all the people on the court and replaced them with the benches led by Rondo, while the Pelicans led the benches who were replaced in the middle of the third quarter.

Without Anthony's leadership, the Pelicans' bench lineup is obviously a bit unimpressive, although the offensive end is very threatening, but the defensive end is a big colander, and because of the lack of Cunningham's response, Perkins' interior line is also burst into a sieve by his old teammate Rondo. By the end of the third quarter, the Pacers had gone from leading by one point to leading by eight points, and the bench had opened up the gap by five points.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Pacers still let the benches continue to play, but Coach Frank replaced Jordan Hill with Myles Turner, presumably to put Jordan Hill on the court at the back end of the fourth quarter to help the team strengthen the defense or something. The Pelicans' substitutions were more straightforward, replacing the two starters Anderson and Gordon with Anthony and Cunningham, this lineup is similar to their bench lineup in the first half, at least it won't be too much of a loss against the bench lineup led by Rondo.

After another two minutes of fighting, the two teams began to replace their main players one after another, and the Pelicans, under the leadership of Anthony, continued to attack the Pacers' interior, but it also played some effect, although the boxing champion was one of the best players in the league in interior defense, but now Tyson Chandler's age still makes him unable to continue to play so well in the fourth quarter.

At this point, Coach Frank's previous substitution played a role, and he replaced Jordan Hill as a center, which immediately bankrupted the Pelicans' plan to attack the interior and cause damage. Then as Ye Xuan and Pickled Pepper began to launch the final general attack, the Pelicans finally couldn't resist it. Originally, the Pelicans' main players in the first three quarters of the game were more expensive than the Pacers' main players, and now this physical problem is even more obvious in the final quarter. Pickled pepper and Ye Xuan successively made a succession, first won a single game in a row, and then assisted his teammates to shoot a long two-pointer, and his own three points were also like divine help, it only took 5 minutes to re-expand the score gap to as many as 13 points, and the Pelicans saw that there was no hope of turning the tables, so they replaced all the main forces and announced their surrender.

At the end of the game, the Pacers defeated the Pelicans 113-102 on their home court to get their new season off to a good start. This game is actually a more focused battle, everyone knows that the Pacers this season still have only one goal, that is, the championship, and the Pelicans' strength this year is not bad, it is very likely to fight in the West, so everyone is very concerned about this game, but the final result is more or less expected, although the Pacers have carried out a large area of personnel changes, but the core of the team has not changed, and the lineup that has been running in for so long should have played better than the Pelicans.

After this game, Ye Xuan also broke everyone's doubts about him, played 33 minutes in the whole game, and efficiently scored 28 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, although the assists and scoring data have decreased compared to last season when he led the team alone, but this data is already very good, in addition to Ye Xuan, the Pacers played very well and Pickled Pepper and Rondo, Pickled Pepper played 34 minutes and got 24 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists, and the performance was also on par with Ye Xuan, However, his shooting percentage was a little lower today, so although he had the most shots on the Pacers, his score was not as high as Ye Xuan's, which was the main reason why he was not able to win the best of the game this year.

And the Pacers' third giant, Rondo, performed very 'Rondo' in today's game, he got 4 points, 6 rebounds and 9 assists in the first half today, although he was not able to continue to play with Pickle Pepper and others in the second half, but he still brushed 5 assists and 5 rebounds. It's only players like Rondo and Kidd who can put up such bizarre stats.

The Pacers played well, and the Pelicans' two main players actually played well, Anthony played 38 minutes and finally scored a game-high 31 points, but in the end he was still unable to help the team win, which also made him a little unhappy. And Anthony Davis, another big man of the Pelicans, played well in the first half of this game, but he looked a little sleepwalking in the second half, although he still had a big double-double of 26 points and 17 rebounds at the end of the game, but the shooting percentage of 10 of 24 shooting was still too low for an interior player.
