Chapter 289: Lopez's Wrath
At half-time, the atmosphere in the dressing room was a little bit not good. Now this Pacers team is very united, they all know the bet between Li Cheng and Carter, and they also know that Li Cheng wants to win Carter very much, but from the current situation, Li Cheng is very difficult to win.
Li Cheng's mood was not very beautiful, everyone was a little excited, and there was not even music in the dressing room.
Lopez couldn't stand the atmosphere a little, he clenched his fists tightly and said, "Captain, I won't let you lose." Put me on the pitch in the second half and I'll kill my brother. β
Li Cheng was stunned for a moment and looked at Lopez, he could clearly feel the flames burning in Lopez's body.
Lopez continued, his voice calm, but with a resounding power. "I didn't let my brother score in the second half, and I tried to grab the rebounds and try to get as many points as I could, and I thought that would help the captain win."
Li Cheng put his hand on Lopez's shoulder and said, "Robin, if you have such an idea, even if I lose today, I won't blame you." On the contrary, I will be happy because of your progress. β
"Hmm!" Lopez nodded heavily.
O'Brien was happy in his heart, and this was the only way he could think of in the first half, but he was afraid of putting too much pressure on Lopez and crushing him, and now that Lopez has proposed it himself, then his idea can be implemented.
"In the second half, we played according to the normal tactics, but on the inside we had to relax our defense, so that the ball from the Nets could reach Brook Lopez's hands, and try to give Robin a chance to defend one-on-one." O'Brien said as he drew on the tactics board.
"This time, we must not let the captain down again." Lopez clenched his fists tightly.
O'Brien's idea was very right, the Pacers pretended to leak a flaw inside and let the Nets pass the ball to Da Lopez, so as to deliberately give Lopez Jr. a chance to defend Da Lopez alone.
O'Brien's approach is a good one, but it's also very risky. If in the case of the Pacers relaxing their defense. Da Lopez was able to score the ball easily, which was a very hurtful thing for Li Cheng.
The second half of the game is about to begin, and Li Cheng stands with Lopez. He and Lopez punched each other and said, "Fight well, don't put too much pressure." To put it bluntly, my bet with Carter was just used to make jokes. β
"Captain, no matter what, I don't want you to lose." Lopez looked at Li Cheng and said firmly.
Li Cheng smiled and did not speak. Everything that needs to be said has been said, and what needs to be done has been done. Next, he will help Lopez as always, and the Nets put on such a formation, mainly depending on Lopez Jr.'s own table.
In the second half, Lopez Jr. appeared directly in the Pacers' lineup. The fans erupted in frantic cheers to welcome Lopez Jr., and all Indiana fans didn't want Li Cheng to lose to Carter, even if it was just a private bet.
"You seem to be confident right now." Carter Road.
Li Cheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know what the next result will be, but I believe I won't lose so easily." β
Carter shook his head. said: "If you don't see the final result, you will never give up." β
"I should have given you this sentence." Li Chengdao.
"Then we can only speak with facts." Carter Road.
Li Cheng nodded, didn't talk nonsense to Carter, and the referee blew the whistle for the game. The Nets kicked off from the baseline and started the second half of the offense.
Harris dribbled the ball through the halfcourt, and he noticed that the Pacers' interior defense seemed a little lax. He frowned, but still passed the ball straight inside.
Harris was seen passing the ball to the inside with ease. The big Lopez directly got the opportunity to one-on-one with the little Lopez, and Carter felt tight for no reason.
"It's not going to be a trap, is it?" The thought only flashed through Carter's mind, and then his heart relaxed. No matter what method the Pacers use, he is the one who takes the initiative now.
The Pacers pulled away as a team, and no one went inside to interfere with the matchup between the Lopez brothers.
"Come on, Robin!" Li Cheng read silently in his heart.
Big Lopez sank his shoulders and crashed directly into Little Lopez.
A smile kept on the corner of Lopez's mouth, "Brother, don't use these old tricks anymore." β
Now that all the numbers are converted into scores, Lopez Jr. is still eight points behind his brother.
"There isn't much of a gap between me and my brother and I still have a lot of hope to help the captain win." Little Lopez was silently thinking in his heart, while trying to defend the big Lopez's attack.
Big Lopez wanted to turn around, but Little Lopez stuck the position directly with his knee. Da Lopez turned directly in the opposite direction, while Lopez Jr. was already waiting on the way for Da Lopez to get the ball.
Lopez Jr. turned around and threw the ball directly to the basket with a hook hand, but the basketball was directly fanned by Lopez Jr. with a big cap.
"Boom!"
The scene erupted in hot and violent cheers, and Lopez Jr. roared and shouted wildly directly under the basket.
Although the ball was fanned out of bounds by Lopez Jr., it was a very upswinging block for both him and the Pacers as a team.
"A very ferocious block, Lopez Jr. finally broke out with some momentum."
"The result of today's game is not too important, but now there is still the suspense of the gamble between Li Cheng and Carter. Previously, we thought that after the Nets took care of Lopez Jr., the Pacers would have a hard time getting a chance, but judging from this ball, Lopez Jr. seems to have found a way to help Li Cheng win. β
"Lopez Jr. should have given up scoring, and he wants to use his defense to help Li Cheng win."
"That's probably the best solution Lopez Jr. can come up with, he's a player who is stronger defensively than offensively. If he is allowed to face a wave of onslaught from the Nets, he may not be able to do anything, but if he is allowed to defend one-on-one, he may be able to do a good job. β
"The current situation is a five-to-five situation for both Carter and Li Cheng. There's no way to stop Lopez from attacking, and if Brook Lopez stops attacking, it's tantamount to leaving their fate in the hands of God, and Carter will never let that happen. And if they don't let Brook Lopez attack. As long as Lopez Jr. slowly looks for opportunities, he will definitely surpass his brother in the number jΓΉ. β
"Now this game has a chance for Li Cheng and Carter, and there is almost no suspense about the outcome of the game, but this gamble seems to be getting more and more interesting."
"The outcome of this bet has overridden the outcome of this game, whether it is Li Cheng or Carter, they are the core of the team. They all have the ability to command the whole team to help them, and now it is equivalent to saying that the matchup between the Lopez brothers has become the main theme of this game. β
"Then let's keep reading! The Nets continue to attack with the baseline ball, and their offensive time is running out, so let's see if they will hand it over to Da Lopez to play. β
The ball got to Carter, who forced his way through. It seems that he still wants to pass the ball to Da Lopez, but this time the Pacers are involved in the defense, and they would rather let Carter score than give him a chance to pass the ball to Da Lopez. β
"The Nets violated the offense in 24 seconds, and the ball was given to the Pacers."
Lee Sung took the ball from Ibaka and slowly dribbled across the halfcourt. He was still thinking about how to help Lopez Jr. score, and it was still a bit unsafe to rely on his own defense.
However, the Nets seemed to be more tightly defended against Lopez Jr. than in the first half, and they didn't give Li Cheng any chances.
This time offensive. Li Cheng was a little helpless and chose to shoot by himself. The ball didn't go in, and the Lopez brothers scrambled for a rebound under the basket.
Everyone wanted to give the rebound to the Lopez brothers, but in the end, it ended up in Granger's hands. Granger turned around and went around the right side of the basket, where he threw the ball over the rim. Lopez Jr., who was on the left, jumped up. He touched the basketball lightly. The basketball fell in the direction of the basket, and then the ball bounced off the basket a few times and fell into the basket very aggressively.
At half-time, the atmosphere in the dressing room was a little bit not good. Now this Pacers team is very united. They all knew the bet between Li Cheng and Carter, and they also knew that Li Cheng wanted to win Carter very much, but judging from the current situation. Li Cheng is hard to win.

The second half of the game is about to begin, and Li Cheng stands with Lopez. He and Lopez punched each other and said, "Fight well, don't put too much pressure." To put it bluntly, my bet with Carter was just used to make jokes. β
"Captain. Anyway, I don't want you to lose. Lopez looked at Li Cheng and said firmly.
Li Cheng smiled and didn't speak, everything that should be said was said, and everything that should be done was done. Next, he will help Lopez as always, and the Nets put on such a formation, mainly depending on Lopez Jr.'s own table.

"You seem to be confident right now." Carter Road.
Li Cheng shrugged. "I don't know what the next outcome will be, but I'm sure I'm not going to lose so easily. β
Carter shook his head and said, "You will never die until you see the final result." β
"I should have given you this sentence." Li Chengdao.
"Then we can only speak with facts." Carter Road.
Li Cheng nodded, didn't talk nonsense to Carter, the referee also blew the whistle of the game, and the Nets kicked off from the baseline and started the second half of the attack.
Harris dribbled the ball through the halfcourt, and he noticed that the Pacers' interior defense seemed a little lax. He frowned. But he still passed the ball directly to the inside.
Seeing that Harris easily passed the ball to the inside, and Lopez Jr. directly got the opportunity to go one-on-one with Lopez Jr., Carter felt nervous for no reason.
"It's not going to be a trap, is it?" The thought only flashed through Carter's mind, and then his heart relaxed. No matter what method the Pacers use, he is the one who takes the initiative now.
The Pacers pulled away as a team, and no one went inside to interfere with the matchup between the Lopez brothers.
"Come on, Robin!" Li Cheng read silently in his heart.
Da Lopez sank his shoulders. Crashed directly into Lopez Jr.
A smile kept on the corner of Lopez's mouth, "Brother, don't use these old tricks anymore." β
Now convert all the numbers jΓΉ into scores. Lopez Jr. is still eight points behind his brother.
