At the end of the first half, the Bobcats led the Pacers by six points at 49:43. In the second quarter, the Pacers Trident launched a counterattack, that is, Hua Ben has been there, otherwise it is very likely to be knocked unconscious.

The playoffs were indeed the stage for bayonet defensive battles, and the Bobcats didn't play a few games with fewer than 50 first-half points over the course of the season. Despite gathering a group of defensive giants, the Bobcats are one of the most attacking teams, as they have the league's most individual player in the league, Huaben, and the best playmaking defender, Pattin. The playoffs began today, and when the Pacers focused on the defensive end, the Bobcats' offensive firepower was forced to weaken.

But Jordan is not afraid, as the most famous player in the NBA to date, he is familiar with the playoffs as well as his own backyard, he drafted Gerrard, Allen, Iguodala, and later signed Mourning in exchange for Anderson, all in preparation for the playoffs, so, although the Bobcats did not have a clear lead after the first half, he was still very calm.

"I don't know why Michael is so confident, but in my opinion, the Bobcats are not in a good situation, you know, the Pacers are an old team, they are the same as the San Antonio Spurs, they have a lot of momentum, and I have a hunch that the Pacers may have to take over the game in the second half." Earl. Johnson said with a solemn expression.

Barkley pouted, as Jordan's best friend, he had to speak for his friend, otherwise Jordan would have to settle accounts with him in the future, "Because you don't know Michael, I think he already has the confidence to win." Honestly, if it's me. Then I will also be very confident that I have this . What else are you worried about with a guy like Wallace? He can score 88 points in one game, he can cut a quadruple-double, he can dunk rebounds! He's a guy who can do anything. ”

Smith also agrees with Barkley's words, as a contemporary of Jordan, he also has a unique understanding of the league's No. 1 person, but in the show he is Barkley's sworn enemy, no matter what he says, he has to refute it, so he struggles to find a reason: "Basketball is a five-person sport." Charles, Michael's six titles are not just because of his ability. Of course, I admit that he is very capable. But if there is no Carlisle. Pippen, without Cobra Grant, without Rodman the Big Bug, without Kukoc, without Langley, he wouldn't be where he is today. I mean, his team is too young. Look, he actually changed into a batch of rookies! ”

As the third quarter drew on, the two sides returned to the court from the locker room, and the Bobcats' five-man team stood at the technical bench, ready to play. Waben's formidable figure is still on the court, along with Wang Zhizhi, Gerrard, Allen and Iguodala.

Mo Ning's body was a little unbearable, and Jordan replaced him with Wang Zhizhi. After a season in the Bobcats, Wang Zhizhi has changed a lot, first of all, his confidence is stronger. It becomes a bit rebellious, and anyone dares to elbow it. Secondly, the body has changed a lot, the previously loose skin has become compact, and strong muscles have appeared all over the arms and body.

Hua Ben gave a pre-war lecture to a group of rookies: "Wang, don't think about it. You can shoot when you have the chance, and although it's a pity that your country's TV station doesn't broadcast our game live, I think there must be at least 100 million fans waiting for the news to report that you can do well; Zebra, Toney, lock the perimeter, don't let them pass the ball easily, and then take it easy. Less dunk, save physical strength OK? By the way, Zebra, you take the ball, and I will organize the attack after I am in position; Gerrard, play the way you like and your defense is the best! Do you understand? ”

“YES，SIR！” The four of them had a tacit understanding and gave a military salute, but Wang Zhizhi was Chinese-style and very standard, and the other three were American-style and crooked.

O'Neal Jr. went off the court in the second half of the second quarter and returned to the court in the third quarter, Jackson, who had played two straight quarters, was replaced, Artest reappeared on the court, and Bender, Gil and Anthony were on the court in the second quarter. Johnson. …,

Wang Zhizhi and Bender are of similar height, and the two have their own strengths and weaknesses together, and Hua Ben personally went to keep an eye on Little O'Neill.

At the beginning, Xiao Ao asked for the ball, and he had to use his height to play Huaben, just like last season.

Wamoto quickly bypassed Xiao Ao's block, half-covering his body, and raised his right arm across Xiao Ao's head to prevent him from having a chance to catch the ball.

It makes sense for him to do this, if Nash or Padding is passing the ball to Xiao O, he wouldn't dare to go around the front so arrogantly, Xiao O's mobility and flexibility are too good, so once the ball is passed in place, it is a hanging layup. But Gil is not such a playmaker, he can't pass this kind of ball, and when Varben is in position, he doesn't dare to pass.

Seeing this, little O'Neill scolded secretly, got rid of Huaben's entanglement and went to the outside to receive the ball, so that Huaben was not afraid.

When O'Neal Jr. got the ball, Wabeon pushed and pulled behind him, and the huge force acted on his body, making the opponent extremely painful. Little O'Neill turned around and thought about him, but Wamoto's strong body firmly blocked him, no matter whether he turned or changed direction, still blocking him outside.

Artest knocked Gerald away and yelled, "Brother, here! ”

O'Neill Jr. passed the ball, Artest got the ball and rushed inside, Gerrard tried to chase him, but couldn't catch up. Artest calculated this, and he saw that Huaben was stuck by O'Neal Jr. and jumped up to shoot.

"Smack!" With a crisp sound, the basketball was filmed, and Artest was shocked when he saw this, it was impossible, Huaben couldn't be so fast, this was simply a flash!

It really can't be so fast, Hua Ben is still by O'Neill's side, Wang Zhizhi, who came up to make up for the defense, slapped the ball and waved his fist proudly.

Iguodala picked up the ball and turned around and ran, O'Neal Jr. skillfully blocked his way, rookie Iguodala didn't expect it, he was still accelerating, and knocked O'Neal Jr. down.

Bavita blew the whistle and sentenced him to hit with the ball, Iguodala was furious, and he shouted, "Is there any mistake, old man, I'm a fucking defender, this bastard is a center, can I knock him down?" It's a fake fall, hey, don't don't, don't blow T, I'm just complaining, I accept the punishment. Seeing Bavita's glare and whistle, Iguodala immediately relented.

Little O'Neill stood up tremblingly. He looked at Iguodala with a smug look on his face and said, "Are you running fast, rookie?" ”

"Kill him next time." Wang Zhizhi ran over to comfort Iguodala, and then ran away after Bend. Little O'Neill's eyes widened, is this what the the Chinese say? Don't they all say that the Chinese are honest and honest?

Artest asked for the ball again, and Gerrard clung to him like a shadow. Wherever he went, Gerald followed. Artest tried to knock him away with brute force, but Gerrard was also strong enough to hold him back.

Bender came up to stand in the way of Huaben. O'Neal Jr. ran to the inside to receive Artest's ball, leaned down slightly, hit Wang Zhizhi with his shoulder, and then turned around. Wang Zhizhi was bending over and spreading his arms to defend. Little O'Neill shook his shoulders and hit him directly in the face.

Wang Zhizhi only felt a 'buzz' in his brain, his vision went black, and the whole person was knocked to the ground.

O'Neal Jr. had no problem with this confrontation, the shoulder man was not violated, and everyone moved their shoulders first before turning, so the referees did not blow him, and his score was considered valid.

Hua Ben pushed Bend away and went up to help Wang Zhizhi, who was being hit on the nose and had a nosebleed. Seeing this, he became angry, blocked Bavita's body and said, "Fuck, what the hell are you guys doing?" Look at my brother,, his nose is about to be smashed. You guys say it's okay?! What the isn't this a malicious foul?! Is that the penalty just awarded?! ”…,

The two gangs were originally mortal enemies, and they were able to play honestly in the first half because the league boss Stern was sitting on the sidelines and didn't dare to make excessive moves. After more than an hour, in the second half, they were all a little nervous.

Bavita explained, with a rare opening: "Ben. You know, we can't blow it. ”

The referee's inaction angered the fans at the scene, and countless people stood up and roared: "Black whistle! Black Whistle! Black Whistle! Get out of Time Warner Center and kill Indiana bitch! Let them go to hell! ”

Stern's face sank, and no one could guess what he was thinking from his expression, but looking at the twinkle in his eyes, everyone knew that what he was thinking about was not going to be a good thing.

Jordan asked for a timeout, and Hua Ben helped Wang Zhizhi down to receive hemostatic treatment. The team doctor came up to take a look and said that Wang Zhizhi's nasal bone had a tendency to fracture, this place was too brittle, and the yellow physique was not good, and the impact of little O'Neill was premeditated, which was quite serious.

It is indeed more serious, routine hemostasis is useless, nosebleeds have been bubbling, and the team doctor recommended that he be sent to the locker room for conservative treatment.

Seeing that he still couldn't stop the bleeding, Jordan had to ask the team doctors to send Wang Zhizhi off the court, and before leaving, Wang Zhizhi said to Hua Ben with apologies: "I'm sorry, captain, I can't help the team"

Hua Ben gave him a punch and forced a smile: "What kind of stupid words, you did a great job, the cover just now is too handsome." This kind of injury is a trivial matter, just go back and bring a mask, rest assured, and when you stop the bleeding, you will find that we have won. ”

Wang Zhizhi was sent away, the reluctant smile on Hua Ben's face disappeared directly, Jordan was ready to let Mo Ning play, but when he saw the latter's clenched fist, he finally said: "Birdman, you play." ”

Anderson stood silently on the court, and then Huaben and the others also walked up, at this time Anderson asked in a low voice, "Boss, how to get it?" ”

"Scrap him!" Hua Ben said viciously, "You don't have to move, I'll come!" ”

When the two sides were on the pitch again, the three referees walked up together, and Bavita warned, "I know what you're thinking, but restraint, it's not my words, it's Mr. Stern who asked me to tell you." Also, there will be no more technical fouls today, whoever causes trouble again, will play directly! ”

Hua Ben's face was expressionless, just chewing braces vigorously, and he didn't even look at the three referees. The Pacers' players began to feel uneasy, O'Neal Jr. was a little annoyed, he was really too impulsive just now, Wang Zhizhi's 'hit him' made him directly brain congested, in his mind, Chinese players are very easy to bully, so Wang Zhizhi was especially angry when he provoked him.

Iguodala controlled the ball and tried to break through Gill, and after some struggle, he gave it to Huaben on the inside.

Wajben got the ball in the penalty area, his shoulder shook quickly twice, and he turned from the left side, but halfway through the turn his right shoulder pulled back, and took a step in the reverse with his left foot, tricking Artest into rushing to his right. Artest hurriedly retreated, and when he saw this, Huaben jumped up directly, and little O'Neill also jumped up and reached out to cover it.

In this regard, Huaben did not stubbornly fight against the dunk, but passed the ball to the birdman, who was also in the restricted area.

Anderson was prepared, as soon as the ball left Waben's hand, he jumped up, jumped high like a spring, grabbed the ball and smashed it, and struggled to make a heavy dunk.

Gil led the offense with the ball, Anderson wanted to defend O'Neal Jr., Warben pushed him, nodded to Bender, and stood behind O'Neal.

Xiao Ao got the ball and spun around the basket twice without a chance, so he passed the ball to Artest on the periphery. Without Huaben's bag, Artest is like a fish in water, and Gerrard at this time is not the opponent of the peak Artay, and he shook off a three-pointer.

Waben carried Xiao Ao sideways to look up at the hoop, and Anderson also drilled over, only to bounce the ball on the hoop and fall down into the hoop. …,

At 48:51, the Bobcats' margin was small.

"!" Huaben scolded, picked up the ball and handed it to Iguodala, and ran down with a gloomy face.

Seeing that the score was tiring, the Pacers' players were in high spirits, and some fans from Indiana in the audience shouted 'DEFENDS.'

Hua Ben reached out to ask for the ball after half time, and when he saw this, a landslide and tsunami cheer suddenly erupted in the Warner Center, and fans who were familiar with him knew that as long as Hua Ben wanted the ball at half time, he was going to come hard.

Artest also knew, but had to come up to defend hard, Carlisle stood up with a solemn expression, and commanded O'Neill Jr. and others to prepare to make up the defense.

Wajburn didn't seem to see Carlisle's deployment, he took a deep breath, his chest bulging high, and slowly carried the ball to two feet beyond the three-point line. At this time, he began to breathe, because his lung capacity was really amazing, and he breathed for three or four seconds before it ended.

Artest's tense muscles relaxed, and at this moment, Hua Ben suddenly moved, facing the opponent one step away, his left foot stepped out of the right forward like lightning, and his strong body also tilted to the right, and the ball in his right hand jumped at a sudden speed, 'Bang Bang Bang'!

Seeing this, Artest hurriedly took a small half step back to the left rear, and spread his arms to block Huaben's breakthrough.

Wabbon turned a blind eye, rushed two quick steps in a row, approached Artest's back shoulder and slammed into it. Affected by this impact, Atai snorted and couldn't help but stumble, but Huaben's body took advantage of the reaction force to slam away, and the left foot that stepped on the ground quickly pulled back to the left front, and at the same time the right hand holding the ball dribbled back to the side, and the ball bounced on the floor to the left.

Artest was shocked, and couldn't care about alleviating the pain, and took a step to the right to block Huaben. At this moment, Hua Ben's left foot was raised again and stepped to the right, his body moved sideways quickly like a ghost, and his right foot, which had been steady, suddenly exerted force, and the ball in his left hand returned to his right hand, killing forward like a whirlwind, and at the moment of starting, fans vaguely saw an angry lynx rushing towards the enemy!

At this time, Artest tried to move sideways again to block Huaben, but his ankle did not obey the call, staggered and almost fell.

“CROSS-OVER！” The fans in the audience stood up and waved their arms and cheered, and the landslide and tsunami were deafening! (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
