"Meng, are you alright? Now the leading side is still us! Soon after the start of the fourth quarter, Alan Houston hit two 3-pointers in a row, narrowing the gap between the two sides directly to 1 point left, and James Posey, who was sitting on the bench, immediately patted Meng Xu on the shoulder after sensing that Meng Xu next to him was a little unhappy. Not only Meng Xu, but James Posey also doesn't want to lose today's game, whether it is to end the team's losing streak or respond to the provocation of the idiots on the sidelines, the Pacers want to win today's game.

"I'm fine, James, even if they overtake me, they won't be able to win today." Meng Xu smiled at Posey, then turned his head and motioned to Slovenian center Primoz Brezek, who was at the end of the bench, to get himself a glass of water. After the start of the fourth quarter of the game, Meng Xu originally wanted to continue to play, but Larry Bird pressed Meng Xu to the bench, let Meng Xu rest first, and then wait until the last few minutes to directly harvest the game on the court, Meng Xu, who was bent on making big news in Madison, looked at the situation on the court but was a little anxious, the lineup that the Pacers are now sending on the court is already a substitute in the bench, but the Knicks still can't take advantage of the game, If it weren't for Alan Houston's two 3-pointers with some luck components, the current point difference would definitely be more than 10 points, and once the score difference is too large, Meng Xu will definitely not be on the court, although he scored 48 points in the 3rd quarter of the game, but for today's game, for Meng Xu, 48 points is far from enough, not to mention Bernard King's single-game 60-point record created in Madison, even Jordan's 55 points, there is still a big gap, and Meng Xu's ambition today is not only that.

"I'll go, Jeff is so violent!" Watching Bobby Simmons, who dribbled directly to the top of the arc and then got rid of Howard Esley, threw the basketball directly into the sky, Jeff Foster, who flew from nowhere, grabbed the basketball in the air, and with a bang, it was dunked into the Knicks' basket, Meng Xu stood up directly from the bench and looked at Jeff Foster who was still hanging on the basket with an unbelievable face. Jeff Foster and Meng Xu, James Posey is a rookie in the same year, but unlike the two, after Jeff Foster joined the Pacers, there was Rick Schmitz in the front, Jermaine O'Neal in the back, Lorenzen White came last year, and Mutombo Pacers came again this year, Jeff Foster never had a chance, and he only played about 10 minutes in four consecutive seasons. And Meng Xu rarely plays at the same time as Jeff Foster, so Meng Xu's impression of Jeff Foster only stays at the honest and steady white man on the training ground, and Meng Xu really thought that this white center has such a violent side.

"You guy, the water spilled all over me." After Meng Xu got up and cheered, James Posey on the side also stood up, grabbed the towel and didn't wave it, he hit Meng Xu's arm, Meng Xu just drank half of the water, and splashed it directly on James Posey's body, James Posey, whose coat was wet, immediately grabbed Meng Xu unrelentingly, in the walkers, the only ones who dared to fight with Meng Xu like this were James Posey and Reggie Miller.

"These guys can't give any force." After restoring calm on the sidelines, looking at Alan Houston, who had never been able to find a suitable opportunity to shoot under the pressure of Bobby Simmons, chose to pass the basketball to Howard Easley, but Howard Easley was under Jamal Tinsley's flawed block, and after directly shooting a three-no-stick, the angry Meng Xu almost scolded.

"In this round just now, Meng Xu on the sidelines looked obviously unhappy, and there were words in his mouth, was he dissatisfied with the performance of his teammates on the field on the defensive end?" Just glanced at the Pacers bench, Magic Johnson saw Meng Xu's expression very clearly, not only Magic Johnson, but even the Pacers players on the court, in the process of advancing towards the frontcourt, saw the expression of Meng Xu on the bench, and they all looked at each other quickly in their minds, whether they had done anything wrong in the defense just now. Even Larry Bird, who was on the sidelines, was confused after seeing Meng Xu muttering in his mouth, the Pacers' defense just now was not a problem, whether it was Bobby Simmons' defense against Alan Houston, or Tyshawn Prince's defense against Sprewell, they have done a very good job, if anyone did not perform well on the defensive end just now, it was Jamal Tinsley, the only one who leaked, but even so, Jamal Tinsley was on the defense of Howard Easley's last shot, is also perfect, Howard Easley, who shot 46% from the field and 39% from 3-point range this season, directly shot a three-point shot under the interference of Jamal Tinsley, so Larry Bird really can't think of where Meng Xu is dissatisfied.

Although Meng Xu used the magic potion before the game, but just relying on the state of entering the demon, it is still a little difficult to play an earth-shattering game in Madison and score a jaw-dropping single game, and considering Meng Xu's feel in the third quarter of the game, and the maximum playing time of 6 minutes in the fourth quarter, 60 points is basically Meng Xu's limit, but 60 points is far from enough for Meng Xu, although 60+ points can already break Madison's single-game scoring record, But the effect of 60 points is still a little weak, so in this game, Meng Xu is also ready to play a big game, at least to break David Robinson's single-game scoring record of 71 points, although after that 71 points, David Robinson was deducted from the hat of the brush, but 71 points is also the highest single-game score in the NBA since entering the modern era, even Jordan, who has not won 70+ in his career, even in the entire history of the NBA, Only Chamberlain and David Thomps surpassed David Robinson in single-game scoring, so as long as this game, Meng Xu can get 70+ and break David Robinson's single-game scoring record, and the sensation caused is definitely not comparable to 60+ or 3 doubles.

But Meng Xu, who has only scored 48 points at present, how can it be so easy to get 70+, if you want to get 70+, Meng Xu's only way at present is to "pretend to be forced mode", but there are requirements for starting "pretending to be forced mode", that is, the team must be behind, so after the start of the fourth quarter, Meng Xu has been waiting for the Knicks to overtake the score, but these guys from the Knicks are a little unlucky.

"It looks like we'll have to wait until the second half of the quarter." As the game progresses, the difference between the Pacers and the Knicks has been maintained at about two points, and the Knicks have always been missing a breath, although Alan Houston has scored 11 points in the fourth quarter, but he can't stand the Pacers' bench players in a vigorous state, as soon as the Knicks close the score, the Pacers will immediately return the color to pull the difference apart again, especially Jeff Foster, This marginal man, who averaged only 3.5 points per game last season, made 3 of 3 shots during this time, and Jeff Foster's vivid picture of grabbing 3 offensive rebounds in 4 minutes stunned Meng Xu.

"This group of benches for the Pacers is amazing! Especially Jeff, you must know that this guy is the fourth center of the Pacers! When Jeff Foster pressed the Knicks' two interior lines, grabbed the fourth offensive rebound of the game above their heads, and then directly dunked to stretch the difference between the two sides to 3 points again, even Michaels in the commentary box began to applaud the Pacers' bench. Originally, in the offseason last season, Larry Bird gave Jeff Foster a six-year, $24 million long-term contract that expired on his contract, and made many media shout that the Pacers are really stupid and have a lot of money, but now it seems that Jeff Foster is obviously worthy of this contract.

"The Knicks called a timeout." Just when the official timeout in the fourth quarter was less than two minutes away, the head coach of the Knicks, Don Cheney, called a timeout impatiently, for the Knicks, it is now time to live and die, this game, the Knicks can't afford to lose anyway, or Don Cheney can't afford to lose anyway, according to the urine nature of Dowlan, if he loses today's game, then his good days in the Knicks will definitely come to an end.

After the timeout, Larry Bird replaced Bobby Simmons with Jamal Tinsley, Primoz Blazek replaced Nn Hilario, for Larry Bird, it was very easy for Larry Bird to win the Knicks, but now Larry Bird is not only thinking about winning or losing the game, but also the overall game state of the players, and physical problems, and how to adjust the game condition of all the Pacers players to the best before the playoffs come, is Larry Bird's main concern now, In recent times, the Pacers' rotation players have seen a lot of improvement in their playing time, and even those on the fringes who have been on the inactive roster for a long time have been given a lot of opportunities.

"Alain, Alain。。。。。。" Once the game began, Don Cheney's adjustments finally worked, and with the tireless efforts of Alan Houston and Sprewell, the Knicks finally took the first score lead of the game at the five-and-a-half-minute mark mark of the fourth quarter. When Alan Houston helped the Knicks overtake the score with a mid-range shot, all the viewers who supported the Knicks in Madison Square Garden were boiling, and Dowland Jr. and Spike Lee rushed to the sidelines very exaggeratedly, constantly shouting Alan Houston's name, and Knicks head coach Don Cheney was also waving his arms excitedly.

Being able to overtake the score before the official timeout came was definitely a very good result for the Knicks, but Sprewell and Alan Houston, who have played 42 minutes in a row, have become the biggest uncertainty at the moment of the final matchup. And in the interval between timeouts, Knicks head coach Don Cheney directly half-squatted there, while teaching the opportunity in person, while personally giving Alan Johnson a light beating on the legs.

"The moment of decisive battle has finally arrived!" When the timeout ended, after all the main players of the two teams played, Madison Square Garden broke out into cheers again, today's game has greatly exceeded the expectations of the fans, whether it is Meng Xu's 48 points in the third quarter, or Alan Houston's 42 points, will make this game a classic for the Knicks this season, if the Knicks can win this game, then it will be even more perfect.

"Meng, you brush, you don't deserve to lift shoes for Alain, Alain is the best star in this league." Before the game started, Spike Lee was already lonely, and it just so happened that the Knicks were now ahead of the Pacers again, so Spike Lee began to brush his presence on the sidelines again, constantly provoking Meng Xu.

"Idiot!" After Spike Lee provoked Meng Xu, some Knicks fans in the surrounding stands also began to follow Spike Lee's rhythm and shouted at Meng Xu, Meng Xu also made a move that stunned the fans after hearing these noisy shouts, Meng Xu ran directly to the commentary seat on the sidelines, and deliberately asked Magic Johnson: "Hi, Erwin, what is Madison's highest score?" ”

After receiving an affirmative reply from Magic Johnson, Meng Xu walked up to Spike Lee and Dowlan again, and said to them with a smile on his face: "The wonderful show starts now!"

After the game started, Meng Xu took over the ball directly from Jamal Tinsley, and after rushing to the top of the arc with the ball, he didn't pay attention to Howard Easley in front of him, because Howard Easley was more than half a head shorter than Meng Xu, so Meng Xu didn't even jump, just tiptoeed, and threw the basketball in his hand.

"Meng's attack this time, the play was too casual, and the shot was too hasty, although there is a big gap between Howard Easley's height and Meng's, but... Oops, this goal actually went in. Just when Michaels was chattering and criticizing Meng Xu's timing, after seeing that the basketball thrown out by Meng Xu casually went in, Michaels also blushed.

"Hahahaha, Al." Seeing Michaels' embarrassment, Magic Johnson immediately laughed, but for Michaels's words just now, Magic Johnson still agrees: "Although this goal was scored, I have to say that Meng Xu is indeed a little anxious now, although the Knicks have overtaken the score, but the situation on the court is still favorable to the Pacers, play slowly and ensure the success rate of every offense, is the first priority." ”
