In the second quarter of the game, the Pacers replaced Pickled Pepper again, and only Leonard's defense could contain Ye Xuan or Pickled Pepper one-on-one, but when these two played at the same time, Leonard couldn't defend it alone, at first Leonard went to defend Pickled Pepper as usual, but Ye Xuan's side continued to hold the ball and singled the French sports car, and his body was at a disadvantage, and Ye Xuan's breakthrough tricks also had a lot of tricks, which caused Parker to struggle on the defensive end.

Ye Xuan also took advantage of the opponent's lack of defense against himself, and was able to score the ball or send a wonderful pass for several rounds in a row, and the old man had to call a timeout to arrange the defense of Ye Xuan in a targeted manner, after the pause, Leonard stood silently in front of Ye Xuan, silently staring at Ye Xuan with his small face, which also made Ye Xuan speechless for a while. Is it because the old man hates himself for fighting on the Internet? Isn't there a calamity for nothing!!

However, after the Spurs adjusted their defense in this way, Ye Xuan, the engine of the Pacers, was contained, not only was it difficult to find opportunities to shoot when attacking, but even it was very difficult to effectively organize the offense, so Ye Xuan had to simply act as a ball handler, and every time he came to the front court with the ball, he handed the ball to Pickled Pepper to deal with.

Pickled pepper can be regarded as holding back for half a game, this time without Leonard's marking, he suddenly began to go crazy, and in successive rounds, he used his singles to attack the city for the Pacers, but the old man expected this, so he still didn't let Leonard change his defense back, in his opinion, as long as Ye Xuan's engine is contained, just like the Heat team you restricted James, even if Wade is strong, he can't cause too much trouble to himself.

The old man's abacus is good, but he obviously underestimated the strength of Pickle Pepper, how can the young and vigorous Pacer Boss have a role with the Flash, who has begun to gradually decline? Therefore, Pickled Pepper even burst into shots, and occasionally was able to divide the ball, and in the second half of the second quarter, the rhythm of the entire game was in his own hands, although the Spurs' strength on the offensive end should not be underestimated, but the Pacers' offense was even more orderly under the combing of Pickled Pepper.

And Ye Xuan is actually quite suitable for playing without the ball, after all, his air cutting and running ability without the ball are supported by A-level talent, so although Leonard's death entanglement is very unpleasant, Ye Xuan can still occasionally rely on running to get empty positions, at the end of the second quarter of the game, the Pacers relied on the excellent play of pickled peppers and Ye Xuan and others had a good shooting rate, and the difference between the two teams was stretched to 8 points in one fell swoop, and the Pacers led 67:59 into the second half.

At halftime, Ye Xuan and Pickle Pepper were joking in the dressing room of the away team, talking about today's game, while feeling the defense of the opponent Leonard, when it came to this topic, Ye Xuan could be regarded as having found his relatives, and Ye Xuan, who was upset by Leonard, was really a little unbearable.

However, Pickled Pepper analyzed Ye Xuan with a relaxed face, "Actually, this is the best, when Leonard comes to defend me, you can attack and organize the team with the ball, and now he goes to defend you, I will be liberated, so that I can attack with the ball, the opponent does not have a few top defensive players like us, which is why we can lead, in the second half, the person who was not defended by Leonard is responsible for attacking with the ball, and the other person is responsible for attracting the defense." ”

Although Ye Xuan wanted to say that the old man on the other side was actually communiquing a personal vendetta, the best tactic at the moment was that the one of the two who was not closely guarded burst out of his own attack power, so that the opponent's defense had to shift the focus, and then liberate the other person, although the opponent contained one of the thighs, but the other leg of the Pacers team could still lead the Pacers forward.

What Ye Xuan didn't expect was that at the beginning of the third quarter of the game, the Spurs changed the appearance of their offensive team and suddenly started the very uncomfortable positional offensive mode at the beginning. So in an instant, the rhythm of the whole game was suppressed, although Ye Xuan also wanted to rely on speeding up to interfere with the opponent, but the old and spicy Parker still controlled the speed of the ball steadily, not giving Ye Xuan a chance to affect his tactics.

So more than 2 minutes into the third quarter of the game, the Pacers relied on a three-point shot by Ye Xuan when he ran out of the open position to increase the score to 70 points, at this time, although the Spurs' efficiency on the offensive end was not satisfactory, but relying on Duncan's singles on the inside still got a lot of points, and after Ye Xuan hit this life-saving three-pointer, the Pacers were able to lead the opponent by 5 points at 70:65.

Ye Xuan couldn't help but complain about the Spurs' tactic in his heart, "This tactic is a two-person fight, he found that he couldn't beat you with fast punches, so he began to play Tai Chi Tuisan with you, and then beat you in this field he is good at, to put it another analogy on the Internet, you quarrel with an idiot, and the idiot will pull you down to the same level as him, and then use his rich experience to defeat you." ”

But the Pacers are helpless about this, the opponent's control of the rhythm is indeed very good, which makes Ye Xuan's idea of speeding up can only be declared bankrupt, but the Pacers were not a team that played fast offense before, so after slowing down, the Pacers can still find their own rhythm, that is, the interior offense.

Although the Pacers now have Ye Xuan, the outside lineup can be called luxurious, but the biggest contributor to helping the team reach the Eastern Conference Finals last season was the interior line composed of David West and Roy Hibbert, so now Ye Xuan has also begun to return to the basics and hand over the ball to Hibbert and West to play.

In this way, the effect is very good, although the opponent's interior strength is good, but Duncan is 38 years old after all, after a few rounds of high-intensity interior confrontation, Duncan immediately showed a trace of fatigue, and Split's defense is a little insufficient compared to Duncan, so although the offensive efficiency of the Pacers is not particularly high, but the defensive end, but also began to gradually frustrate Duncan and others.

In the third quarter of the game, 7 minutes into the game, Duncan really went through a few rounds of hand-to-hand fighting, and his physical strength gradually began to deteriorate, so the old man simply called a timeout to replace Dior, Duncan also took the opportunity to rest for a while, and Ginobili also took the opportunity to be replaced, and replaced the old sports car.
