When Marion just ran to Zhang Kong's side, Zhang Kong had already thrown the basketball in his hand high.

Just behind Marion, a figure suddenly appeared, Danny Granger, and the first goal of the opening game was naturally for him to play. Zhang Kong has always had no problem in this regard, and he generally won't fight for the first goal in the opening game.

After Gratanger grabbed the ball, he jumped up and hung the ball with his right hand and slammed a tomahawk-style dunk with one hand.

Seeing the fury of this ball, the audience on the entire court boiled again, and the earth-shattering cheers reached the ears of the Pacers players.

And this is all the credit of Zhang Kong, with the addition of Zhang Kong, the entire Pacers' offensive routine is clearer.

The team that originally only relied on the individual ability of the players to score is now playing more like a whole, and Zhang Kong's average of more than 10 assists per game is enough for everyone to start comparing him to the top point guards in the league.

Of course, Zhang Kong's actions were blown away by the media, and he himself knows his level, after all, the data is there.

He can pass so many good balls, mainly because he has a very wide field of vision, his passing skills are at most the level of a third-rate point guard, and he can ensure that the ball is passed accurately in that position, and that's it.

For example, some passing between the marches, playing the board and passing these skills, he is completely inadequate, but it is such the simplest pass, and he can also get more than ten assists per game, which has to say that Zhang Kong is very good at seizing opportunities.

With the Pacers' violent start, the Mavericks were not too surprised, before the game began, the head coach of the Mavericks Carlisle had taken the Mavericks to watch the footage of the Pacers' game, and they were very clear that there was a difference between the current Pacers and the Pacers in previous years, although Carlisle was not the top coach in the league.

But he is not a wasted person, the biggest difference between the current walkers and the walkers of previous years is because of a vacancy. The arrival of Zhang Kong made the walkers more energetic and passionate, and this is the most lacking point of the Mavericks.

Passion, fighting spirit, energy, accurate passing and strong string connection on the offensive end are the secrets of the Pacers' winning streak.

Don't look at Zhang Kong at ordinary times, he doesn't look like anyone hangs, but on the court, he is definitely the most popular person for the Pacers right now.

Who doesn't like a player who can stand up at critical moments and be willing to play for his teammates when it doesn't? Compared with Granger, Zhang Kong has more leadership temperament, and this leadership temperament is very special.

But fortunately, if it is purely about offense, the Mavericks are not easy to mess with! When it comes to offense, the Mavericks are definitely not afraid of anyone, although they die miserably every time they face a chaotic team, or run a team.

At the end of the first quarter, with Nowitzki's 11 points in a single quarter, the Mavericks led the home team by four points at 35-31 into the second quarter.

Although he has a good talent, but he can't always control his hands, no, two more offenses have been committed, and the remaining Murphy, a guy who is strong in offense and weak in defense, and can only grab rebounds, how can he withstand the ravages of the German chariot, and the German chariot's offense is almost all jump shots, even if Zhang Kong is asked to defend him, it is useless, Zhang Kong's height is there.

So in the first quarter, except for a step-back jumper that Nowitzki played, Zhang Kong didn't cover him again.

Such a big man pitcher is the weakness of Zhang Kong's defense, of course, Zhang Kong can't be blamed for this, after all, the height is there.

In the first, second, and third positions, Zhang Kong is definitely the strongest defender, and there is no one of them! Just look at Kidd.

Kidd threw four shots in the first quarter and didn't score any of them, if it weren't for the fact that he relied on the block and rushed into the interior, causing Hibbert's foul and two free throws, he might not even score a point in the first quarter! After a break of about two minutes, the two teams fought on the field! The Pacers launched a Jedi counterattack in the second quarter, and the bench didn't care about them.

The second lineup on the Pacers' bench is point guard TJ Ford, scoring guard Blanton Rush, small forward Mike Dunleavy, power forward Tyler Hansbrough, and center Solomon Jones, except that there is no All-Star level player dominating the court, it is almost comparable to the main lineup of those bad teams! This is the walker now.

The substitute for the main force is extremely balanced! The original four-point gap, with the efforts of these substitutes, slowly recovered to only one point.

At this time, the visiting team's super sixth man, the former eagle kings Jason Terry and Hafries stood up, the two of them inside and outside, began to dominate the situation on the field, and the score slowly opened again, and when the main players came on the court, the situation on the field was still like that.

The Mavericks still led the Pacers by more than four points at 49-45, and after the official timeout, Zhang Kong came to the court first.

He now needs to get a good match with the benches, and Mike Dunleavy hasn't played in almost a season.

Even if the physical function has been restored because of Zhang Kong, he has not found a good way to play.

That is, when he encounters a point guard like Zhang Kong who does not follow the routine, he has a chance to play, Zhang Kong came on the court to substitute Blanton Rush to play the position of scoring guard, and just came on the court, he directly passed TJ Ford, who easily made a layup in front of Josie Barria, and TJ Fuchi has also had some meaning to get closer to Zhang Kong recently.

He is definitely the strongest point guard, but he always wanted to play tricks and be handsome before! This is a common problem of young people, there is nothing to say! But the consequence of being handsome like this is that he can't be high, and he can't be low.

Now that his main position has been snatched away by Zhang Kong, and if he is sure that he can't get it back, he wants to start scoring points.

At least the data is better, and the playing time left in the Pacers can be guaranteed in the future, and if he is traded, he can also change to a big contract, TJ Ford is right and realistic, so now he has some deliberate imitation of Zhang Kong's style of play.

Barria is very spiritual, but his body is far worse, so as soon as TJ-Ford hits it, he will be knocked away, and he watched TJ-Ford hit a layup, and TJ-Ford gradually liked this feeling, what skills, it's all floating clouds!

After Zhang Kong came on the court, he specifically stared at Jason Terry, and when Jason Terry was stared to death, Jeffries was also alone, and it was good to play alone on the inside, but the score did not pull away, but let Zhang Kong chase them back again.

With Zhang Kong's one-shot pass, Mike Dunleavy who slipped the baseline received the ball and made a successful layup, and the Pacers finally overtook the score at 53-52.

Kidd, Marion, Nowitzki, the three big players go straight to the court, plus Jason Terry on the court, the Mavericks form the strongest lineup in their current team, Nowitzki level 91, Jason Kidd level 88, Sean Marion level 85, Jason Terry level 86, a superstar, with three All-Star level players, and Kidd is still a must-kill existence.

Such a lineup playing the Pacers has nothing to do with balance at all, the Pacers have no way, seeing that the opponent has replaced the main force, they can only replace the main force, except for the guy Hibbert who went off the court because of three fouls.

The lineup on the court has become like this, center Murphy, Danny Granger on the power forward side, Mike Dunleavy at small forward, Dundee Jones at point guard, and Zhang Kong at point guard, Zhang Kong and Duntai Jones are mainly responsible for the opponent's backcourt.

The combination of Kidd and Terry, Zhang Kong's goal is to prevent Kidd's pass and the three-point of the relationship moment, and Dundee Jones is to die with Terry! With the substitutions on both sides over, the game began again, and Kidd came on the pitch to instigate a sharp attack.

Now the strong point on the Mavericks' side is still Nowitzki, so after dribbling to the opponent's three-point line, Kidd hoisted the ball to Nowitzki inside, and Nowitzki received the ball and hit Danny Granger directly with his back.

There is an obvious gap between the two in physique and height, and the tactics of one big and four small are sometimes not easy to fight.

First you need to get up to the speed of the offense, like the Warriors and Suns, and then you need to improve your shooting percentage.

As it stands, the Pacers' shooting percentage today can only be considered average, not too high, not too low, only medium, and the most dangerous in this situation, Novikidd leaned on Danny Granger to squeeze two steps inside.

After seeing his range, he suddenly turned around, and it was a German kill! Archery on horseback.

This move is Nowitzki's special move, and other people's special kills may not be very common, but Nowitzki's special kill is a little different, he can use it more than ten times in a game, because his special kill consumes very little.

But correspondingly, it is not very powerful, not as powerful as Kobe's drifting jump ball and James's bulldozer-style layup.

However, the score is the same, as long as you can score points on the field, it is better than anything else!
