With the end of the regular season, the East and West rankings are also completely finalized!

Eastern:

1. Chicago Bulls 62-20.

2. Miami Heat 56-26.

3. Indiana Pacers 56-26.

4. Charlotte Hornets 51-31.

5. Atlanta Hawks 50-32.

6. Cleveland Cavaliers 47-35.

7. New York Knicks 44-38.

8. New Jersey Nets 42-40.

Westward:

1. Utah Jazz 62-20.

2. Seattle SuperSonics 61-21.

3. Los Angeles Lakers 61-21.

4. Phoenix Suns 56-26.

5. San Antonio Spurs 56-26.

6. Portland Trail Blazers 46-36.

7. Minnesota Timberwolves 45-37.

8. Houston Rockets 41-41.

In addition to the playoff teams, in the league's bottom of the league, the Nuggets are unbeatable, relying on a perfect record of 11 wins, successfully winning the bottom and the highest probability of the first pick, the Raptors and Clippers are close behind, with 16 and 17 wins to rank second and third, followed by the Warriors and Grizzlies, who are both 19 wins, ranking fourth and fifth.

Then came the 20-win Mavericks, the 27-win Kings, and the other not-so-thorough teams.

For the Pacers, their ideal scenario this year would be for the Raptors to fail to draw a top-three and then take a fourth-place pick, so that the Raptors' draft pick would belong to them, and if the Raptors would get a top-three, then the pick would have to wait until next year to cash in.

Anyway, after Lin Tian glanced at the rankings, he recalled the draft rankings in his memory.

Well, at least in terms of rankings, exactly the same! Since the rankings are all the same, the draft results are exactly the same, and it is very reasonable, which is a very high probability of happening!

The Raptors have a high probability of finishing fourth, and then they, no, the Pacers, can choose between Carter and Jamison!

Again...... Pierce and Nowitzki were also great, but Lin Tian was not at all prepared to pick them with the team.

People who don't look good when they play, don't come to Indiana!

It's that realistic!

From this point of view, then according to the original plan and route, choosing Jamison and then taking the Warriors to exchange for Carter and get some extra returns should be the best choice!

Of course, the lottery is still a month away, and the draft is still two months away, so Lin Tian and the Pacers don't need to worry about this now, they just need to play the playoffs well!

As for the draft, we'll talk about it later!

And at the end of the season, the Pacers' stats were completely frozen.

Lin Tian played in 58 games this season, averaging 23.7 points, 11.1 assists, 5.3 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 0.5 blocks per game! His three shooting percentages were 48%, 40% and 81%!

Absolutely excellent efficiency, absolutely top performance, plus the games he played, the team won 44 wins and 14 losses, and in his absence, the team only had 12 wins and 12 losses, and the win rate just reached 50%! Even if the last two games of the season are excluded, the team is only 12-10 in Lin Tian's absence.

When he was there, the team had a win rate of 75.8%! In his absence, the team has a win rate of 54%!

The huge difference of more than 20% percentage points makes Lin Tian's importance to this team vividly demonstrated! No matter what those sunspots say, Lin Tian is the strongest and most important No. 1 core of this Pacers team!

At the same time, Lin Tian's 23.7 points ranked fourth on the scoring list! Although the top three on the scoring list are Jordan with 30.5 points, O'Neal with 28.3 points and Malone with 27 points, all of which are at least 3 points higher than Lin Tian, but fourth is fourth, and Lin Tian's score is higher than everyone else!

In addition, he ranked first in the league with 11.1 assists and tied for sixth in the league with Jason Kidd and Eddie Jones with 2.0 steals per game, but because of the small number of appearances and insufficient total steals, he could only regrettably rank eighth.

But Rao is like this, Lin Tian's score of fourth in points, first in assists, and eighth in steals is still the only one in the entire league! Except for him, no one else can be in the top 10 in all three technical statistics at the same time!

It's no wonder that the Indiana media posted a lot of hate-pulling articles as early as mid-season.

"Lin is the NBA's active No. 1 organizational guard!" 》

Target Magician! Can Lin become the No. 1 controller in history? 》

The best playmaker, the best scorer, the best defender! This is Lin! 》

After these hateful articles were published, it was very rare that whether it was Seattle with Peyton, Salt Lake City with Stockton, or Phoenix with Kidd, the media in these places all chose to be quiet and did not post a reply.

Unless he is really asked in the face and has to face it, he can only say one thing: Lin has never personally led the team to do anything in the playoffs.

Yes, winning the championship as the first core of the team is the only thing Lin Tian can question now, if Lin Tian can win the championship this year, then all the active organizational defenders will be trampled under his feet! Even if you look at the entire history, after Lin Tian won the championship this year, he can still hold his organizational defender steadily, I am afraid that only the magician is left.

Even Isaiah Thomas only has the data that needs to be accumulated better than Lin Tian.

It's all up to this year's playoffs!

In addition to Lin Tian, the new Pacers recruit Christie averaged 14.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 2.4 steals per game in the games he played, and he ranked third on the steals list, while he and Lin Tian averaged 4.4 steals per game, ranking first among all duos in the league!

The steals and defensive capabilities of the two of them not only gave the Pacers a lot of fast-break opportunities, but also gave the Pacers, who have mediocre air defense and basket protection capabilities, a lot of respite.

One of the most intuitive stats is that before Christie's arrival, the Pacers conceded the third highest points per game in the league and the seventh in the league in points conceded per 100 possessions.

But with Christie's arrival, they dropped to ninth in the league in points conceded per game and 14th in the league in points conceded over 100 possessions.

Although it is still not a strong defensive team, it is at least barely strong, out of the bottom level, and has reached the average level.

Christie's help to the team is definitely more beautiful than the numbers on his books!

In addition, Barkley averaged 17.7 points and 11.4 rebounds per game this season, Miller averaged 14.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game, Schmitz averaged 8.2 points and 5.1 rebounds per game, and the five starters averaged 78 points per game! Their firepower is absolutely terrifying!

And even on the bench, the Pacers have Dumas, who averages 12.1 points per game, to support the firepower of the team's bench.

In addition, coupled with the firepower of Angie, Davis, Best and others, the entire Pacers team performed their own duties, and after a whole season of running-in, they created a super offensive team with the best firepower in the league!

Points per game, 100 possessions, points per 36 minutes, 3-point shots, 3-point field field, 3-point shooting percentage, fast break points per game, rounds per game, offensive efficiency value......

Of all the most important stats on the offensive end, the Pacers are all ranked first in the league!

They are the strongest offensive team of this era, the most extreme offense and the most crazy firepower and the all-hands style of play, the best synonym of this Pacers team this season is offense, flamboyance and madness!

And their first opponent in the playoffs is also the Cleveland Cavaliers who have just completed the rebuild and just acquired the biggest player in team history, "Rain Man" Sean Kemp!

As one of the toughest and most tenacious opponents in the East during Jordan's first three-game winning streak, the Cavaliers had a glorious time in the early 90s, but with the retirement of Mark Price, Brad Doherty and other team demerits, the team also fell into sediment.

In the offseason, the Cavaliers spent a lot of money, not only giving the 'Rain Man' Camp the largest super contract in team history, but also almost reorganizing the entire team.

'Rain Man' Sean Kemp is their absolute core, averaging 18 points and 9 rebounds per game, the league's top scorer, and the league's No. 1 shooter in 3-point shooting percentage this season, Wesley Person, can average 14.7 points per game and hit 2.3 3-pointers per game, which is the team's first firepower point on the outside.

And rookie point guard Breven Knight is a young man, although his scoring ability is average, he has a steady style of play, a veteran passer, and can deliver 8.2 assists in his first year in the league, which is a very important booster for the team!

In addition, Lithuanian 'Big Z' Ilgeskas, who landed in the NBA a year late, was also able to deliver 13.9 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, and supported the Cavaliers' interior line with Kemp!

Then there are the team's two rookies selected this year, Derrick Anderson, the 13th pick in the first round, who can contribute 11.7 points per game and is the team's top scorer on the bench.

and the 201-centimeter-tall forward selected with the 17th pick in the second round, who is also tall, strong, able to rush, grab and good at defense, and can also score 10.1 points per game.

These 6 people are basically the most important rotation players of the Cavaliers today, plus Bob Sula, Cavaliers veteran Danny Ferry, Ukrainian interior Vitaly Potapanko and others who will be very familiar to Chinese fans in the future, and they constitute the core lineup of this re-emerging Cavaliers!

It can be seen that this team is indeed very young, and three of their most important and highest scoring players per game are first-year rookies! There is also a repeater Big Z, and it can be said that their lineup is very young!

Being young means being full of energy, having a lot of hard work and courage, but it also means being inexperienced and prone to roughness.

On April 23, U.S. time, more than 19,000 fans poured in at the Indiana City Plaza Arena! As the craziest and most loyal fans in the country, the Indians didn't get to see the home team in the playoffs for even a single game last year, but thankfully, they didn't have to wait long!

After the team failed to enter the playoffs last year, the offseason made drastic reforms, not only opening the largest super contract in NBA history to recruit third-year guard Lin Tian, but also absorbing Barkley, Dumas, Big Ben and other powerful players to join the team, and quickly completed the rebuild.

And it turned out that the team's madness in the offseason was really worth the money, the Pacers not only returned to the playoffs after a year, but also ranked third in the East, and even if it wasn't for the last two full rotation games, they could still finish second in the East!

And, in the championship odds prediction before the start of the playoffs, in addition to the Chicago Bulls in the first place, the Jazz and Lakers are in the second and third respectively, and the Pacers are behind these three teams, and their probability of winning the championship this season can be said to be very high!

It's no wonder that Indianans are so crazy and looking forward to the start of the playoffs, because this year, they can really feel ...... They are incredibly close to the championship!

They all believe that the team can do something this year!

With 20 minutes to go before the start of the game, the restarting Pacers team walked out of the players' tunnel, and the Indiana fans who had been waiting for a long time immediately sent crazy cheers and shouts to the point of hysteria!

Crazy fans, all their passion, not left at all, before the start of the game, to the players!

It's their way of showing their support and their love!

"Indiana fans, they're so exciting!" Barkley felt the cheers of the fans and couldn't help but say, "When I played in the Finals in Phoenix, none of the local fans were so crazy!" ”

"And what about when you reached the division finals in Philadelphia? Are the fans crazy? Lin Tian asked curiously.

Before Barkley could speak, Miller followed: "Didn't you also play in Houston to the division finals?" What about the Houston fans? I've often heard Hakim blow their fans to the skies, so might as well be us Indiana? ”

"Can you two bastards shut up? Lao Tzu rarely sighed seriously. Barkley scolded and pointed out a middle finger at Lin Tian and Miller.

How can there be such a bastard in this world? Before the game started, he bullied his teammates first?

Aren't you afraid of infighting?

Afraid of infighting?

If Barkley asks this question, Lin Tian can still hurt him again.

Isn't the team most afraid of infighting Barkley himself?

This Pacers team, counting his age, counting him is the most likely to have a significant decline in form, Lin Tian has two championships in hand, and Miller will not fall off a cliff by relying on shooting skills and moving to eat.

As far as Barkley is concerned, to put it mildly, if he misses this year, if this guy wants to win the championship, he will either simply hug his thighs and make substitutes, or he will play soy sauce purely, and then imagine winning the championship as almost the second leader like this year, it is basically impossible.

This year, it's Barkley's best chance!

Infighting?

He is more scared than anyone else!

After Barkley was obediently shut up by Lin Tian and Miller, the players on both sides quickly began to warm up and find a feel for their game.

Then, the referee walked to the halfway line with the basketball, and the ten starters on both sides quickly and consciously stood in their positions.

The first playoff game of the Pacers is about to begin!

Bird hasn't made any changes to tonight's lineup, it's still a five-man combination of Rick Schmitz, Charles Barkley, Doug Christie, Reggie Miller and Lin Tian!

It's just a Cavaliers to deal with, and you don't need to use your brain to change formations!

The Cavaliers started with 'Big Z' Ilguskas, 'Rain Man' Sean Kemp, Cedric Henderson, Wesley Posson and point guard Blevin Knight.

"Lin, I won't be afraid!" Knight walked over to Lin Tian and tried to squirt a trash word at him.

"Wait a minute." Lin Tian looked at Nate, who was 175 centimeters tall, bent down, held his knees with both hands, and leaned his ears and said, "I'm sorry, I was too far away just now, I didn't hear clearly, you say it again." ”

FUXX！

Knight cursed, turned his head decisively, and stopped talking to Lin Tian.

Come up and say that people are short, and hit people in the face first?

Don't talk to him anymore!

"That's it?" Lin Tian picked out his ears boringly, thinking that it was a hard stubble, and he could spray a few words to it.

Disappointing.

"First, don't mess with me on the court! If you fool around, I promise you'll regret it! Second ......"

Tonight's referee Veti tirelessly intimidated the players on both sides in the center circle before the game, and I don't know if the words of these referees are uniformly trained, and each referee's threat is so similar and so useless.

Lin Tian felt that 99% of the players in the league would not take the words of the referee before the game to heart, and would only treat them as if they were farting and bullshit.

After saying this, no one listened to the threat, and no one believed it, Viti finally blew the whistle and threw the ball into the air.

Big Z and Schmitz's styles are actually very similar, both are from Europe, both have average physical fitness, both are tall and can shoot, and at the same time, they are criticized for being soft because of their rebounding and mediocre defense.

This time, the two of them were also chess opponents, and the two of them met almost at the same time, but in the end, Schmitz's strength was stronger, and after a little effort, the ball was successfully dialed to Lin Tian!

After Lin Tian got the ball, he didn't stop to observe the running position of Miller and Christie as usual, but dribbled the ball himself, and rushed to the front court at a gallop!

Then, before everyone in the Cavaliers could react, before they began to stop and fall into position, Lin Tian had already accelerated again and dribbled directly to the inside line of the Cavaliers!

Big Z has even just come to the free throw line at this time, Kemp has always been strong in attack and weak in defense, and the Cavaliers' big penalty area is actually empty at this time!

In the face of this kind of gift, of course Lin Tian will not be polite, after pulling it up, it is a 180-degree turn to close the abdomen, and then a force, completing a 180-degree air rotation after the back buckle of both hands!

"Do you like this dunk, Sean? Do you know why you're a 'rain man' and not a 'rager'? Because the water is so good that you are stepping on your horse! After scoring the goal, Lin Tian turned around and happened to see Kemp, and without hesitation, he immediately turned on the taunt mode.

Anyway, there is a grudge, anyway, I have done it, and I don't need to save any face!

Anyway, if it is suspended this year, this guy will have to gain weight when he comes back, and he won't even have the opportunity and ability to retaliate.

Camp didn't answer Lin Tian's trash talk, and after many duels with Lin Tian, he had already understood one thing: compared to spraying people, eight of them tied together are not Lin Tian's opponents, it is better to play quietly!

Looking back, Knight dribbled to the frontcourt, although he was only a small man of about 175 centimeters, but he was not like Iverson, Boykins or Boggs who focused on speed and breakthrough, each of them had the top speed in the league, and when he broke through, it was called a gallop that no one could stop.

Knight's style of play is known for being steady and traditional, and he is an authentic, very traditional classical playmaker.

Pass first, organize the whole team, almost never shoot the ball if it is not an absolute chance, there is no fancy dribbling and passing, but he can always twist the team into a rope and pass the ball to the person who should receive the ball.

For example, this time, after he got stuck in the camp, he gave the ball to him quickly, allowing the team boss to play the first attack, which is the rule and tradition of many teams.

"Fatty, how about showing you my new tricks?" Kemp looked at Barkley, changed from his back to the face frame, lowered his center of gravity, and faced Barkley, and suddenly pulled up directly after continuous tentative steps and duffles to make a mid-range shot!

"Huh!"

After a crisp sound, Kemp actually scored a guard-exclusive tentative step pick-up jumper!

"How? Have you ever seen this? "Kemp was very proud after the goal and pointed at Barkley.

Barkley ignored him, but quickly turned to hold the basketball, and then threw one arm violently, the basketball immediately flew to the front court, Christie jumped high to catch the basketball, and in the face of Henderson's defense, he was at ease, and easily pushed forward.

After only dribbling the ball twice and coming to the frontcourt, he suddenly made a one-handed pass and gave the ball to Lin Tian, who had already killed outside the 3-point line on the other side.

Facing Knight, who was more than 15 centimeters shorter than himself, Lin Tian raised his hands high, and after easily getting the basketball, he didn't put the ball down at all, but passed the ball directly like that.

The basketball flew over Knight's head, but he couldn't do anything about it.

What should I do if I can't reach it?

The basketball almost flew a big diagonal, from outside the 45-degree 3-minute line on the left side to the baseline on the right, in principle, this is a big taboo when passing, and no coach would like his players to pass the ball like this.

It's too easy to make mistakes, and it's too inefficient!

But Lin Tian can be transmitted!

Miller, who had just run to the bottom corner, didn't even stand firm, the basketball had already flown to his chest, and after receiving the ball, he didn't have time to think about how the ball came and who passed it, driven by the shooter's instinct, his body moved faster than his head!

"Huh!"

After a crisp sound, Miller also hit a 3-pointer!

In the first two offenses, the Pacers all played the Cavaliers' unstable foothold and offensive and defensive transitions, and the two offenses didn't add up to more than 15 seconds! Proper walkers' favorite rhythm!

The Cavaliers' offense, this time Barkley relied on the advantage of strength to push Camp even out, so that he could not receive the ball in his most comfortable position, but when the two were wrestling, Camp suddenly unloaded Barkley to lose his center of gravity, and then he suddenly turned around and wiped directly to the basket!

Knight's pass flew off Kemp and straight to the basket.

Kemp jumped high on his heels, grabbed the basketball with both hands and slammed it into the hoop.

"Boom!"

After a loud bang, Camp also scored 4 points in a row at the beginning, and he played extremely tough!

"This kid, after leaving Gary, really got on the ball, he didn't have such a good technique to get rid of before." Barkley looked at Kemp's back and muttered.

"If you can't handle him, we can help Charles." Lin Tian walked up to Barkley, waiting for the serve, and asked Barkley if he needed help.

"I can do it myself!" Barkley shook his head decisively and said, "On the offensive end, I want to beat him two first!" ”

"Go ahead!" Lin Tian didn't say much, but directly agreed to Barkley.

There is no reason not to agree to such a trivial matter.

Not to mention that this kind of thing can not only make Barkley happy, but also consume Kemp, who is heavy on offense and light on defense, and is not good at defense.

He's the only reliable ball-handling offense for the Cavaliers, and if he fouls too early or consumes too much, the Cavaliers will lose all opportunities and weapons to compete with the Pacers!

Barkley's speed and bounce are not as good as Kemp, but his power and tonnage are also unmatched by Kemp.

When this guy wanted to be in the position, he wanted it deep and ruthless, and when he got the ball from Lin Tian, the whole person was almost in the 3-second zone! He took advantage of the situation to push his elbow, and Camp had to take half a step back after suffering pain, and this half-step space was enough for Barkley to jump and finish it!

The first exciting point of the game came to pass.

Barkley vs Kemp!

These two started a heads-up wave in the first half of the first quarter!

Kemp's mid-range shooting, his speed and turning straight into the basket and his quick rim break all made Barkley very helpless, he couldn't keep up with Kemp's speed at all!

The onslaught of time on Barkley may not be so obvious, but it is deep enough!

But fortunately, Barkley's advantage is still there, he continues to go deep into the position, back singles, his league-famous big ass top Camp is miserable, but the team's other inside big Z can't withstand a reckless player like Barkley at all, if you let Big Z change defense, I'm afraid that at most half a game, he will be knocked apart by Barkley!

Therefore, even if Camp can't withstand Barkley, he can only play with his life!

This season is his first season on his own, and it is also his first time as the leader of a team, and he hopes that he can take responsibility, he wants to clear everyone's ignorance of him, and he hopes to wash away his current bad public opinion and reputation.

With 5 minutes left in the first quarter, Bird took the lead in substitutions, replacing Barkley, who had already scored 7 points, with Davis, who was more mobile and more able to entangle with Kemp, and asked him to play against Kemp, who had scored 10 points tonight!

Barkley goes down and Davis comes up, which means that the Pacers' only interior singles strength is gone, and they won't play positional battles anymore.

It's time to rush up!

In the first round when Davis came up, he used his energetic defense to interfere with Kemp's shooting, allowing him to shoot iron, and then Schmitz grabbed the rebound, and then distributed it to Lin Tian for the first time.

After Lin Tian got the ball, he pulled his legs and ran towards the front court!

Aggro!

Knight and Person blocked Lin Tian one after the other, one left and one right, to stop his fast break and let the Pacers return to positional warfare.

But just when everyone thought that Lin Tian would pass the ball in the face of the bag, Lin Tian suddenly dribbled the ball and rushed towards Knight, and then when the two people were so close that they were almost completely close together, Lin Tian suddenly flashed in front of Knight with a small change of direction at an ultra-low altitude, and came to Person in the blink of an eye.

And Person didn't even make timely reactions and defensive moves, Lin Tian had already turned around one after another with a strong blast, and disappeared from in front of him in the blink of an eye, to behind him!

"Boom!"

This is the only thing that Person can hear, from Lin Tian's movement!

He couldn't turn back in time, and he couldn't see how Lin Tian deducted the ball at all.

All he could hear was a loud bang and the crazy cheers of the fans!

Lin Tian's ball is too silky!

In the blink of an eye, the two of them shook over, and the Cavaliers backcourt duo was like a stake!

Between the lightning and flint, breaking through two people in a row, Lin Tian's breakthrough ability and dribbling ability are getting better and better!

After this shot, the Pacers also took the lead again, and they are currently 19:18, one point ahead of the Cavaliers!

The Cavaliers' offense, this time Kemp faced Davis's fierce defense, a little unable to parry, unprepared, he chose to distribute the ball to Persson in the bottom corner, but Person faced the grandfather of the off-ball run!

Miller knows too well how Person runs and how to use cover to find open space, and Miller is really not good at dealing with other types of players, his too thin size and not fast enough make him very passive every time he plays against opponents with the ball.

But if Miller defends the shooter-type player who runs off the ball and catches the ball, the jumper?

Miller will immediately show everyone what it means to be an open-handed catch-and-shoot jumper!

For example, this ball, as soon as Kemp's ball was shot, Miller had already adjusted his position and stood in front of Person!

He didn't even have to make a steal, and the basketball flew straight into his hands!

If you only look at the result of this goal, it was not Miller who completed the steal at all, but Kemp who completed the pass!

"Lin!" Miller yelled and gave the ball to Christie near the halfway line, who took the ball and threw it towards the empty frontcourt.

The basketball bounced lonely on the court, no one around could catch up or get the ball, and when the basketball was about to go out of bounds, a pair of big hands suddenly copied the basketball.

"Boom!"

Then, the owner of these hands jumped up, smashed the ball into the basket with both hands, and hit the 2 points that must be hit!

The yellow No. 7 jersey continued to dance in the air, and the whole stadium began to chant Lin Tian's name again!

"This ball is good for Doug in advance, a little bit of my shadow!" After Lin Tian landed, he found Christie, smiled and high-fived him!

Next, the Cavaliers' offense finally hit a mid-range shot by Big Z, but the Cavaliers didn't have any respite at all, because the Pacers ran again!

Lin Tian once again took the lead in rushing to the front, although he didn't have a basketball in his hand, how could the Cavaliers dare to let it go? Person and Knight, the two brothers and sisters, could only grit their teeth and chase in the direction of Lin Tian with all their might.

But until Lin Tian hit the basket of the Cavaliers, the basketball didn't fly over.

Pacers, this fast break shouldn't be able to be beaten!

Person and Knight were both relieved that they hadn't run in vain, and the two guys didn't forget to glance at each other and let out a smile of encouragement.

"Brother, good job this round!"

"No, no, no...... It's you who are better defended! ”

Well?

Wait a minute......

Persson and Knight looked at each other for a moment and realized that something was wrong.

Both of our guards followed Lin Tian around the 3-second zone, but what about Miller?

What about the league's top scorers? Who's following him?

The answer, of course, is no one!

Miller ran all the way to stand firm outside the 3-point line, Christie's pass had arrived, Miller was 3 meters in circumference, and there was not a single defender!

Kemp, who was closest to him, took a look at it and decided to give up and not waste his strength.

This kind of ball, if Miller doesn't score, he doesn't have to mix in the league!

"Huh!"

After a crisp sound, Miller felt hot tonight, and it was a perfect shot!

The Pacers continued to extend their lead.

As the first quarter of the game continued, the Pacers began to gradually grasp the rhythm of the game, there is a huge gap between the two teams, at the end of the first quarter, the Pacers relied on a few fast breaks and their excellent ability to use the offensive and defensive transition to score a lot of difference.

33：24！

In the first quarter of the game, the Pacers led by 9 points!

Before the start of the second quarter, Bird sat next to Barkley and suddenly said: "Charles, although you scored high when you were there, we were behind, and after you got out of the break, we were up by 9 points all of a sudden." ”

"In the second quarter, you have to fight! Otherwise, there will definitely be many people who say that I don't know how to use people and don't start for Dell! ”

Barkley couldn't help frowning as he listened to Bird's words.

Who is this stupid bird scolding?

Really, I can't hear it?

Doesn't this mean that Lao Tzu didn't play well and dragged down the team?

If Dale Davis really played well but didn't start, who will those people in the league spray, do you need to say?

It's certainly not Byrd anyway!

I'm sure I'm the number one target! As for who else will be pulled into the water, it will depend on how well Davis plays.

Thinking of this, Barkley didn't go to Bird's cavity, but walked towards the court.

Ironically Lao Tzu is a cancer, right? Do you really think I'm a pig brain and can't hear it?

I, Sir Charles, am better than a monkey!

This time Barkley came on the court, and the Cavaliers did not let Camp play him at the beginning, but let Camp, who was very consumed in the first quarter, sit on the sidelines and rest for a while.

But the entire Cavaliers, except for Kemp, how can there be half a person who can compete with Barkley?

The rest, no matter who it is, against Barkley, it has to be crushed and beaten!

And as soon as Barkley saw that Camp was not there, he immediately entered the most excited state!

No matter which interior line of the Cavaliers other than Camp is faced, Barkley is all about taking and scoring in a fancy way! And even if he can't score, his big elbow can open up enough space for himself to ensure that he can grab the frontcourt rebound and score on the second offense!

In less than 3 minutes of the second quarter, Barkley scored 7 points alone, including a 2+1 attempt!

He is indeed old, and he can't run or jump higher than when he was younger.

But his tonnage is still there, and he blows up these rotation interior lines of the Cavaliers, and there is still no problem!

And with Barkley scoring 7 points in a row, the difference between the two sides has also been stretched to 13 points!

At this point, Cavaliers coach Vlatro dared to let Kemp continue to rest, he quickly called Kemp and Knight to his side and said, "Block!" Sean, you and Blaven play pick-and-roll, go attack their interior and Barkley's shortcomings in traverse speed! ”

With a dead ball, Camp and Knight both walked onto the court, and the first attack after coming on the field was that Camp covered Knight, Knight broke through quickly, and at the same time, Camp saw that Barkley was not as fast as him, and he also lowered his head and went inside!

Although the Pacers still have Davis standing on the inside, there is obviously not much he can do in the face of Kemp, who has already sprinted at full speed and is fully running.

Knight found Kemp with a one-handed pass, and Kemp grabbed the basketball with both hands and jumped straight to the basket.

"Boom!"

There was a bang, and after jumping in the air, Kemp showed near-perfect physical fitness, changed from holding the ball in both hands to holding the ball with one hand, dodging Davis's encirclement and block, and smashed the ball into the basket through the violent forward!

"Toot! The goal is valid, Dale Davis hits a foul, and a penalty is added! ”

While Camp landed and roared to celebrate this dunk, referee Viti blew the whistle in his mouth!
