Chapter 192: Settle accounts after the autumn
Looking at the whole game, the best player in this game is not the players on the Pacers' side, but the Spurs' Ginobili, the bald man can be described as a big show today, even shooting 14 of 20, scoring a game-high of 37 points, and he played 39 minutes in this game, 11 assists, all of which are his finals career records. But Ginobili, who performed like this, still didn't bring victory to the team, for no other reason, the Spurs played too poorly in the first two quarters of the game.
And the Spurs' benches have not been able to play their due strength, the Spurs team except for Ginobili's 37 points, only Duncan's 19 points, Parker's 15 points and Leonard's 14 points are more watchable, and everyone else is all single-digit scores, which really makes the old man's hair gray.
On the other hand, on the Pacers' side, although Ye Xuan's data is not brilliant enough, he only made 14 shots in the 39 minutes he played, hitting 7 of them, but today Ye Xuan got 8 free throws, and sending Ye Xuan to the free throw line is undoubtedly equivalent to sending points, so even if Ye Xuan only hit 7 goals in the sports battle today, he still scored 26 points. And because he has fewer shots, but he has more time on the field, Ye Xuan has a lot of passes today, although not all passes can form direct assists, but Ye Xuan still got 11 assists today.
In fact, Ye Xuan's contribution today is far more than what is seen in the data, Ye Xuan's running in this game has created a lot of opportunities for his teammates, and many of Ye Xuan's passes have formed assists after the second transmission, and Ye Xuan's indirect assists today are as many as 8, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Ye Xuan is the engine of the current Pacers.
In addition to Ye Xuan, Pickle Pepper played well today, sending a quasi-triple-double as usual, 31 points is also the highest score on the Pacers' side, in addition to 9 rebounds and 7 assists, and today due to Coach Frank's substitution strategy, Pickle Pepper's playing time today was controlled at 37 minutes, so Pickled Pepper is also amazingly efficient today.
In addition to Pickled Pepper and Ye Xuan, what the Pacers have to say is Hibbert and Lance Stephenson, who suddenly broke out in this game, Hibbert was comprehensively suppressed by Duncan in the first few games, and did not show his dominance in the regular season at all, but today, his performance can be regarded as re-proving himself, 17 points and 13 boards, the third giant of the Pacers.
And Lance Stephenson completed his redemption in this game, in the last game, due to his willfulness and dissatisfaction, the Pacers lost the victory on their home court, but in this game, especially in the second and fourth quarters, Stephenson's performance can be described as amazing, not only when he was in the opposite position, Leonard, who scored the highest score of his career in the last game, only scored 14 points, but also contributed a certain amount of firepower on the offensive end, 13 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds, With less than 25 minutes on the pitch, Reims looked like a pickled pepper on the bench.
However, the focus of this game is not who is better, nor is it that the Pacers won the battle of Tianwang Mountain and thus won the match point. But shortly after the start of the fourth quarter, Split's foul, Ye Xuan's coma departure, and the later return of the king, you must know that Ye Xuan's 26 points today, 11 points were scored in the last quarter, of which before being viciously fouled by Split, Ye Xuan scored 5 points in a row, and in this offense interrupted by the opponent, he was already unguarded and was about to dunk.
Everyone saw the situation after that, Split savagely rushed up and knocked Ye Xuan away, Ye Xuan fainted at that time, but I don't know why, Ye Xuan returned to the field soon after entering the player tunnel, and scored 6 points in the next game.
Obviously, the Pacers were not prepared to let go of Split after the game, and soon after the game, the Pacers appealed against the malicious foul, not only asking the league to severely punish the murderer, but also wanting to directly send the Spurs' brain, the old man Zhuge Vic, into trouble.
There is no other reason, because at the press conference after the game, the old man refused to answer all the questions about the foul, and refused to express any opinion on the foul, and even at the end of the press conference, the old man left the court angrily, making this silent resistance, as if he was persecuted.
But there are always some media who like to fan the flames, and when they can't find any news to dig up in the Spurs players, they choose to find another way, and then there is a game video in the media, Ye Xuan was sent to the free throw line in an attack before the injury, and the Spurs took advantage of this dead ball opportunity to make a substitution, and then, the key place arrived, and the video clearly showed that the old man called Split to him, and explained in a low voice for a while.
And in the next round, Stephenson stabbed the opponent's basketball, Ye Xuan took advantage of the situation to hold the ball quickly, and completed a wonderful cooperation with Pickled Pepper, and when he saw that he was about to stage a wonderful aerial relay, Split came out from behind and directly knocked Ye Xuan out. Then I don't know where to take a screenshot of the old man smiling on the sidelines and paste it aside.
Through such a video, the media involuntarily connected them, although this is indeed true, but I have to say that the imagination of the media is indeed very terrifying. And the Pacers, on this basis, want to ban the opponent's commander as well, you must know that the old man has been a coach for so many years, but he has made a lot of enemies, and for a while, not only the media in Indiana are criticizing him, but the media in other regions have also come to the ground.
However, the league obviously didn't want to let the last game of the finals get out of balance, so they didn't accept the Pacers' complaint that the old man Zhuge Vic instructed his disciples to deliberately hurt other players, and by the way, they also announced the punishment for Split, a second-degree malicious foul, which will be a gold game in itself, and then the league gave an additional punishment for Split's action, 5 bans, which means that Split has not only completely missed the finals this season, And even in the first few games of next season, he can't play.
