Originally, everything was going according to the routine of the big Van Gundy, but Zhang Kong's breakthrough disrupted all the strategies of the big Van Gundy, and the big Van Gundy also wanted to yell at this time: You are not right, why don't you play according to the routine? You're going to make a foul and click 3! Well, I'll give you a problem...... What should I do in this case?

If he dared to ask Zhang Kong, Zhang Kong would dare to answer him, cold salad, what else is there to do? Such a strange event has caused the Pacers to collide, and without Howard, the inside killer, it is the turn of the Pacers to start to exert their power.

Howard got off the court, this is definitely the most lethal blow for the Magic team, there is no way to change Gortat to the court, Gortat's level is actually not bad, it can be said that it is not bad, the defense is good, the offense has shots, and the position is also in place, coupled with the advantage of height, let this tall white man go to a weak team, it is estimated that he will play the main force, but in the Magic, he can only become a substitute player for Warcraft, and live in the shadow of Warcraft for the rest of his life...... And when he is replaced on the court, the inside advantage of the Magic side will be gone, which is the consequence of the Magic's over-reliance on Howard, and when Howard can't play, they can only be abused by each other.

And for the Wizards' group of shooters and breakthrough men, when Howard got off the court, it was almost like a hazy sky, suddenly clear, and in a blink of an eye, it was a sea wide with fish 'burst', the sky was high and the birds were 'broken', the players on the Pacers' side began to burst out almost instantly, Granger and Dundee Jones tried just now, and the feel was not particularly good.

First use a breakthrough to nourish the feel, and then wait until the critical moment to directly hit the opponent with a stick to cut it to death, this is the routine of the Pacers!

If it's just a few of them, it won't really cause much trouble to the Pacers, because Barnes, Carter, and Petrus who is sitting off the court, these guys are now defensively good, and after falling from the core of the team to a role player, Carter's mentality has also changed slowly, and he is really good at defending on the outside.

Da Van Gundy also designed a set of special methods to deal with Zhang Kong, that is, chain defense! If you break through one, there will be another one, and if you break through one, there will be another! It's been rotating like this, this kind of defense, when the Pacers don't feel very good, really restricts Zhang Kong, this defense focuses on his own body, Zhang Kong really doesn't know what to do, Da Van Gundy's defense of Zhang Kong, to put it simply, is to cut off Zhang Kong's connection with other players, if he is willing to score, let him win! Now everyone in the alliance knows that Zhang Kong's offensive ability is insufficient.

But don't forget, the Pacers don't just have one empty space, just when Big Van Gundy thought he was guarding against Zhang Kong, the real boss of the team, the real offensive core, stepped up and hit two consecutive breakaways.

Granger really raised his feel, after scoring four points in a row, he immediately hit another three-pointer, and one person scored seven points in a row, and directly let the audience stand up and applaud him, this is the leader of the team, and he should stand up at this time!

Although the Magic team is more enthusiastic about three-point shooting than the Pacers, the outside defense on the Pacers' side is too strong, so that the Magic players can hardly shoot normally on the outside.

This also made the commentators at the scene ridicule Howard's important surname to this Magic team with a gloating voice, and these players are like headless flies without Howard, who are spinning around, just can't find the basket.

Of course, no one will tell them at this time that Howard has been in foul trouble when he once played the Cavaliers and the Celtics, and at that time, it was these people who stood up, clung to the score and successfully waited for Howard to come on the court to reverse and win.

And the most happy thing for the fans is that today's referee is really powerful, the referee's home whistle in this game is called a force, Zhang Kong finally understood the meaning of the home whistle, under the loud cheers of the fans, the referee gave the Pacers a lot of opportunities, at a glance, these three referees in the periphery but did not buy the Pacers to win!

Midway through the first quarter, in the face of Gortat instead of Howard, Hibbert went on a big show, scoring eight points on four consecutive inside offenses, and Van Gundy, who hit Big Van Gundy, called two timeouts in a row, but to no avail.

At the end of the first quarter, it was surprising that the Pacers limited their opponents to a measly 19 points.

Originally, everyone thought that even if the Magic lost the game away, they would not lose so badly, but it seems that they are almost miserable.

At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers led their opponents by nine points at 28-19 and entered the second quarter.

In the second quarter, the game was not played according to the rhythm of the Pacers, because Howard had just played for two minutes and 21 seconds, and then returned to the court to rest again, this time it was not Zhang Kong who made fouls, but Al Jefferson.

It can be said that he is the guy who is the most good at making fouls on the court now, the inside line has singled Howard continuously, the first ball did not score, the second ball is still played, the second ball is not as good, and the third ball is played again! Finally he deceived Howard of his vigilance.

On the third time Jefferson pretended to shoot, Howard jumped first, and since you're jumping, go back to the bench!

Looking at the dejected Howard, these players of the Pacers all laughed obscenely, now the players in any position of the Pacers are no worse than the other party, as long as Howard does not play this variable, then the world is not a Pacer?

After Howard went off the court, Petrus took the first 10 points of the Magic team, but the Pacers used a combination of inside and outside methods to firmly control the situation...... A combination of inside and out? This term has been used by the Pacers for the first time in the past few seasons.

After the main player came on the court in the second half, Hibbert hit two jumpers in a row, and then assisted Murphy, who completed a three-point shot, and Hibbert became the next super interior in the Magic interior without Howard making trouble.

Attacking, blocking, passing are all fine, and the magic that is played is crying dad and calling mother! At the end of the second quarter, the biggest player on the court, Rashad Lewis, stood up and told everyone with a three-point whistle, even if the Magic didn't have Howard, there would be me Lewis! At halftime, the Magic lost to the opponent by a full 13 points, 39-52.

Big Van Gundy raised his head and looked at the score at the top of the screen, he was really a little panicked, he never thought that his team would only score 39 points in the half, you have to know that you are a three-point team, I am dripping sky!

"Are the Pacers going to double up against my Magic on the road?" As soon as this thought got up, he let Big Van Gundy forcibly press it, but this thought was like a nightmare, and it had been lingering in Big Van Gundy's mind, firmly occupying his thoughts, and after quickly returning to the locker room, Big Van Gundy had to sort out his thoughts.

At this time, many hot-tempered fans in Orlando turned off the TV, stopped watching, went to bed, and the more they watched, the more angry they became, today's Magic team is simply like the previous Magic team, not at the same level at all.

However, the home side was very happy, and the cheerleaders showed their strength during the halftime break, so that the fans who were already boiling on the field did not calm down because of the halftime.

Instead, looking at the thighs and arms of the white flowers in front of him, the speed of adrenaline secretion of these thick men has been accelerated I don't know how many times, tonight's game is indeed a particularly powerful home whistle, but this is the home field.

If you were in Orlando, you might have been scolded, but in Indiana, the whistle was only cheered by the crowd.

On the Pacers' side, because of the reason why Zhang Kong was looked to death, the other core, Granger, got a lot of opportunities to shoot, and he directly brushed 18 points in the half game, it seems that the average of more than 20 per game is not a big problem, and after the inner line is not suppressed by Howard, Hibbert seems to have become the Howard of the Pacers, and the Gortat who played is called a rout!

He also scored 16 points in the half, which is rare when Hibbert is so powerful, and today it may be a bit of a rush.

And Zhang Kong's performance in the first half of the game was not very eye-catching, only 6 points, 6 assists and 3 blocks of the performance, there is no way, the magic side looks at him more strictly than his daughter-in-law, Zhang Kong can't have too many opportunities to attack.

But they look at it this way, the Pacers have more opportunities, Granger, Dunleavy, Dundee Jones, and even Watson and Hyde all have the strength to impact each other, if they keep staring at Zhang Kong like this and consume manpower, maybe the Pacers can solve the battle in the third quarter! In fact, no one can blame this, only Howard, who won't find time, he has committed three fouls so early, and he only played a total of five minutes in the first half.

This is not good news for either Howard or the Magic team, and today's referee seems to be really eyeing him, if he wants to get rid of the referee's entanglement, in the second half, Howard needs to be more careful!
