Next, Mark Jackson returned the favor with a mid-range shot, 3:2!

The quality of the cover was excellent, Reggie Miller was blocked and Garnett made a timely pass!

Houston shoots the ball outside the three-point line, and a three-point shot goes into the net!

6：2！

The Pacers attacked, and the ball was given to Schmitz on the inside.

Schmitz singled Da Yao and hit the iron under Da Yao's defense!

Garnett grabs the defensive rebound, and the Knicks advance quickly!

The Pacers quickly returned to the defense and landed in a timely position, and Alan Houston ran a baseline intersperse, didn't get a chance, and passed the ball back to Garnett.

Garnett continued to do the shaft and handed the ball to Da Yao, who had just finished covering Charlie Ward!

Schmitz pounced in time, Da Yao had no chance, and Bo Oterlo saw this and ran out to catch the ball according to the tactical requirements.

Dabo didn't have the ability to shoot from a distance, Dale Davis let him go a meter, and at the same time, Garnett quickly went to the bottom of the basket!

Davis instantly understood the Knicks' tactical choice, and with a move of his body, he blocked Dabo's passing route to the basket, and Dabo had to throw the ball to Charlie Ward, who ran outside to respond.

The time for the attack is almost up, and Ward has no time to organize the next attack, so he can only throw the pot!

Houston, who was still running in the waist position, took the pot, his position was not very good, and Reggie Miller defended him again, but Houston dribbled the ball and immediately made a quick shot!

"Bang!" A two-point shot into the net!

8：2！

Clark Kellogg said: "Houston was solid, it was a goal that was completely individual and our defense was in place. ”

Albert said: "Yes, there is no way to defend a goal like this. ”

The Pacers attacked, Reggie Miller missed, Da Yao grabbed the defensive rebound, and then threw it hard to the frontcourt!

Houston received the ball, but Miller stuck to it tightly, and he made a layup with great force!

At this time, Garnett, who came from behind, grabbed the rebound in the front court, and then dunked the ball into the basket in the air!

10：2！

Al Albert frowned and sighed: "Garnett's talent is so good, such a big man can still play a fast attack, who can jump up?" ”

Clark Kellogg said: "Yes, Mullin can only watch him dunk the ball!" ”

The Pacers attacked, Reggie Miller came to the basket with a beautiful pass, Da Yao wanted to help defend but didn't cover it, and was gently picked up by others into the basket!

10：4！

Knicks offense, No. 22 tactics, Da Yao cut outside after blocking and dismantling!

Rick Schmitz didn't dare to let go of Da Yao, chased the defense outside the three-point line, Charlie Ward burst into the basket, Davis, who came to make up for it, did not interfere, and the Knicks scored another 2 points!

12：4！

The Pacers attacked, Mark Jackson passed to Reggie Miller, Miller passed to Chris Mullin, who cut the air, and Mullin shot the iron!

Dabo grabbed the defensive rebound, and the Pacers were already rushing back to defense.

In positional warfare, the Knicks played a No. 15 tactic.

Ward organized, passed the ball to Houston who came out from under the basket, Garnett came over and played a hand-to-hand cooperation with Houston, but unfortunately the Pacers' defense system was too good and still had no chance!

Garnett had no choice but to distribute the ball to Charlie Ward on the outside.

As soon as Ward received the ball, Da Yao came over and made a block for him. Because he had just been rushed to the basket by Ward to score, Mark Jackson did not go around outward this time, but went inside, pinching Ward's breakthrough route, and at the other end, Schmitz also did not dare to let go of Da Yao!

So, Ward had a short chance to shoot a three-pointer, and he didn't hesitate to throw the ball out with a wave of his hand!

Bang!

Three points, in!

At 15:4, the Knicks opened with a 10-point lead!

Larry Bird's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Being led by the Knicks by 10 points at the beginning of the game is obviously not something he wants to see, but he knows in his heart that there is nothing wrong with the team's defensive system, and the Knicks can lead only because they are too accurate.

Therefore, Bird did not call a timeout, but only asked everyone to be steady, play slowly, and don't lose their breath.

It's a pity that in the next few rounds, the Knicks' offense still maintained a good momentum, and before you knew it, the score became 22:8!

Clark Kellogg exclaimed: "The Knicks had such a good hand, leading us by 14 points in the first quarter!" ”

Al Albert said: "We have to call a timeout, even if we don't set up a play, we have to interrupt the Knicks!" ”

Before Al Albert could finish his sentence, Bird called a timeout. He has to adjust the Pacers' defense, otherwise if he continues to play like this, the game will have to fall apart.

Speaking to the Pacers players who walked off the court, Bird said: "We're going to change to a third set of defensive tactics next, to press the ball carriers, disrupt their rhythm, and increase the interior ball ...... offense."

has been an opponent for so long, Li Wei knows the Pacers' system well, and the opponent has those routine changes, and he can guess a rough idea.

He said to the Knicks' players: "The Pacers will adjust their defense, I think they will not have enough control over the bottom corner and air cut after they adjust their defense, and then we will play 43, 45, 14, 24 four sets of tactics, shoot when you have the opportunity, don't hesitate!" ”

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in unison.

The players from both sides returned to the court, with Nesterovic replacing Da Yao on the Knicks' side, Nowitzki replacing Da Bo, Nash replacing Charlie Ward, and the Pacers also making rotations, Jalen Rose for Chris Mullin, and Antonio Davis for Dale Davis.

Rick Schmitz returned to the court and singled out Nesterovic to recover two points, 22:10!

Nash organized the attack, Alan Houston circled from the bottom right corner, and then returned to the bottom corner, with no chance, so he could only stand in place and pull space.

Kevin Garnett on the right ran out of some space and Nash made a timely pass. After receiving the ball, Garnett burst into the basket with cover, the Pacers contracted the defense, and the four of them surrounded them together!

Garnett didn't get up because he saw that the defenders of Houston were also retracting and the bottom corner was empty!

A ground-and-ground pass successfully passed the ball to Houston, and the Knicks' sharpshooter received the ball and shot a three-pointer into the basket!

25：10！

The Pacers attacked, Mark Jackson passed a wonderful pass, and Antonio Davis violently dunked after receiving the ball, which caused the fans to stand and cheer!

25：12！

The Knicks attacked, Nash passed to Garnett, Nowitzki had an open cut at this time, and Garnett passed the ball at the right time!

The German catches the ball and makes a jumper and hits a precise mid-range, 27:12!

In the next few rounds, the two sides continued to attack and defend, and the Knicks' hot hand still did not stop!

Jumper team, there will be a few very iron games every year, and there will be a few very accurate games, and today is just in time to catch up with the Knicks!

Bird called another timeout halfway through the quarter, but it didn't work, and at the end of the first quarter, the Knicks actually scored 40 points for the first time!
