Chapter 260: Indiana Eight Hussars! Lin Tian's new way of playing!

The team doctor walked to Bird's side, and Lin Tian and the others also walked to the Pacers' bench with an anxious face, wanting to hear what the team doctor said about Carter's injury.

"He landed on his back and fell hard! Coupled with the fatigue and strain injuries caused by too much playing time recently, his back cramps are a symptom of back spasms! Unless you give him a shot to close this game, it will definitely not be played! ”

"closure! There will never be such a thing in Lao Tzu's team, and I don't want to hear it! Just tell me when he'll come back! Bird waved his hand impatiently, he really didn't have much patience right now.

"As for when he will come back...... the team doctor couldn't say any more, he shook his head and said, "It's up to luck." ”

Look at the word luck, it's not the irresponsible nonsense of the team doctor.

It's the back cramp injury, which he really can be big or small.

95% of back spasms will only last for about 1 week, as long as you relax your body, rest well, supplemented by medication and massage treatment, you can recover in 3-5 days.

But what's so disgusting about this thing is that it's easy to form repetitive cramps for a short period of time! That is, if you don't recover from the first injury and hurry back and play high-intensity, long-term games and confrontations, then it is very likely to relapse! And the symptoms of recurrence are likely to be more severe than the first time.

Therefore, after many players have experienced back cramps, the most important thing to do is not to hurry up and come back from training, but to let themselves completely relax and recover well!

Although this injury is not a big injury, there are also a very small number of players who will not pay attention to recovery, forced comeback, rush to train and other reasons, so that this back spasm is linked to their entire career, and it can never be cured! Then, because of this injury, his competitive form quickly declined and he retired as a result.

Well, that's Pacers head coach Larry Bird.

When he was young, Bird relied on his good health, did not pay attention to recovery, and felt that a few times of back pain was nothing, so he withstood the pain and spasms in his back, and forcibly built a road for his old mother to come out at the door of his house, so that it was convenient for his mother to go out.

Filial piety was fulfilled, but the result was a severe back spasm, which Bird suffered from for the second half of his entire career and never recovered!

The final result was that Bird could still provide 20 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists in the last year of his career, with All-Star level strength, but he had to leave the NBA early and chose to retire because he couldn't bear the intense pain in his back and the constant pain!

It can only be said that the black and white heroes of the league in the 80s had to retire early because they couldn't control their young selves and caused some completely unnecessary injuries.

The magician can't control the lower half of his body, and Bird can't control the pretending heart!

Obviously, it only costs a few thousand dollars for a professional to get a professional to fix a beautiful path, but he doesn't!

The magician can buy a reliable protective equipment for only a few cents, but he doesn't!

It can only be said that the black and white heroes are worthy of being people from the same era, and they are all characters who like to save!

In addition to Bird, people like Tracy McGrady and Ben Simmons also suffered serious back injuries that caused their careers to take a sharp turn for the worse, almost falling off a cliff, and never returned to the top.

Well...... In addition to Simmons' serious back injury, he may also have a big brain problem, and the sharp turn in his career is that in addition to the back injury, the main thing is that the brain injury is a little more serious.

But in short, although the final examination results have not yet come down, Bird, a senior who is troubled by conservative back injuries, has already made a decision for Carter in his heart.

Regardless of whether it is serious or not, Carter will be reimbursed directly for the season!

For such an evil season, there is no need to gamble your entire career!

If Carter came back in a hurry, causing this back spasm to become an incurable disease like himself, then Bird would probably feel extremely guilty for the rest of his life!

He knew better than anyone how bad it felt to be plagued by this cramping pain in his back!

He wasn't going to let Carter take any chances.

But don't let Carter risk it......

Bird looked at the remaining eight Pacers and sighed helplessly.

If Carter doesn't take the risk, he'll have to kill the rest of the people!

Bird opened his mouth a few times, and he wanted to say forget it, let's give up this season, but in the end he couldn't say it.

Lin Tian patted Bird on the shoulder and looked at the rest of the team: "We haven't reached a desperate situation yet!" Now the race is our lead, and the series is our lead! The rhythm and initiative of the game are in our hands! ”

"Guys, let's fight this one first! Again: if our guys can come back, then we can't leave them without the ball! ”

"Unless they're all sure they're out for the season, we'll have to keep fighting for our guys!"

"We have fewer people, but after this time, we will gain the respect of the whole league! We don't give up, we don't mess up! We're still going to give everything we can to fight the Heat! ”

"Think about it, 30 years from now, when you lie in a rocking chair and enjoy the shade, what glorious past do you want to tell your grandchildren? Do you tell him that you surrendered in a series and don't resist, or tell them that you once knocked out the Miami Heat when only eight players could play? ”

Speaking of this, Lin Tian paused, then stretched out his hand and said, "Walker! ”

"Champion!"

Everyone else also stretched out their hands and roared with Lin Tian!

The Pacers are back!

Maybe it's because of sympathy for the Pacers' unlucky situation, or maybe it's because I'm embarrassed to blow the Pacers' technical fouls again, in short, Lin Tian's flying basketball just now was not punished by the referee, and the referee didn't give Lin Tian a T.

In the next offense, the Heat once again played the ball to Mashburn, but this time when Mashburn went inside, he was surprised to find that Christie's defense was harder than before!

It was originally a technical flow, and Christie, who was not very prominent, successfully resisted Mashburn, and then took advantage of Mashburn's distraction, Christie suddenly broke the ball and slapped the ball into Hoiberg's hand, Hojberg got the ball and immediately lowered his head and rushed forward!

No matter who it is, it's clear that if the Pacers want to win tonight, they have to bring the rhythm up, they have to push the speed up!

After killing all the way to the 3-point line, Hojberg suddenly stopped, and then found Lin Tian who had run to the top of the arc outside the 3-point line for the first time, and passed the ball directly.

The players of the Heat team quickly retreated, they wanted to guard the basket to prevent Lin Tian from impacting the basket, but Lin Tian suddenly stopped outside the 3-second zone, and then pulled up and threw it!

"Huh!"

After a chase close-range jumper, the Pacers' lead widened again!

"Oooh! Didn't give up! I knew the Pacers weren't going to give up! Barkley shouted excitedly: "They're still desperately defending!" They can still play fast attacks! Pacers, fearless! How about 7 people less? What if there are only 8 people left? The Pacers will not be afraid! ”

Su Qun from Huaxia Sports Station said: "This game, no matter what the result is, I think I will put it on my list of favorite games, and I will recommend it to everyone who has just started playing basketball!" Don't give up! Say never! Always do your best! ”

"Sometimes, there really is something more important on the basketball court than winning or losing!"

On the pitch, the battle between the two sides continued.

The Pacers have also maintained that little lead over the Heat.

And until the last 2 minutes of the game, the Pacers still have a 3-point lead!

Then, at this point, the Pacers went out a little bit again.

Christie, who played the first 46 minutes and constantly fought against Mashburn, Mourning and others, suddenly fell to the floor while running, but fortunately he called a timeout in time when he fell, so as not to lose possession.

The team doctor quickly stepped forward to check, then turned back and waved at the rest of the team.

"It's okay, it's just cramps! It's okay! ”

After hearing this, the whole Pacers team breathed a sigh of relief, if Christie was missing, then they would not be a problem of how to play next, and they could not even meet the NBA's requirement that the minimum number of players to register for each game should reach 8.

The team doctor quickly helped Christie break his legs, massage, and help him relieve the symptoms of cramps.

"Can you fight?" Bird looked at Christie with some concern.

"No problem, it's just a bit big just now, it's not in the way, I'll be careful next." Christie nodded, indicating that she was out of the way.

"Next, you try not to participate in the fast attack, and after you win the ball, hand it over to Lin to deal with, and let him take care of the problem of advancing and attacking." Bird patted Christie on the shoulder, and seriously, if he had a choice, Bird really wanted to replace Christie.

But looking at a few people on the bench, he is really not at ease.

With a 3-point lead in the final 2 minutes, Bird really didn't want to give up this win!

On the other side, Riley slapped his hands and said, "Their physical fitness is at its limit!" They can't stand it! Hit me inside! Jamal, keep me on that Christie! Consume him, knock him down! Alonzo, that Davis definitely doesn't have the strength anymore! I want you to step up the fight for rebounds in the front court! ”

"Use frontcourt rebounds to slow down their fast-break momentum!"

"Come on, get this victory! Let's go back to Miami for a party! After Riley finished speaking, he reached out and refueled everyone again, and the Heat players were ready to walk towards the court.

For them, the intensity of tonight's game is really much greater than they imagined, they really didn't expect that the Pacers could still press them in this situation!

What if they had one more? Isn't it that we can't stop it?

This kind of thought irrepressibly surfaced in the hearts of everyone on the Heat team.

Soon, the timeout ended, and the five Pacers took to the court again.

Three of them tonight haven't had a second off until now: Lin Tian, Christie and Davis.

Christie's cramp is definitely not an accident, it is caused by playing for too long and his physical strength has reached a bottleneck.

Christie's physical strength has been exhausted, so the others, of course, will not be much better, and by the time the game is played, everyone on the Pacers court is exhausted!

They may have cramps or other conditions at any time.

Bird's task now is not even to coach the team anymore, his most important task now is to pray.

Pray that no one gets hurt again.

In the last 2 minutes, the battle continues!

The Pacers' offense once again gave Lin Tian.

Lin Tian was also sweating profusely at this moment, and his physical strength had also reached a bottleneck!

Even this is Lin Tian, but if he changes someone, according to Lin Tian's style of play tonight, where the intensity of both offensive and defensive ends is full, and he continues to attack frantically in the face of the bag and the trap almost anytime and anywhere, and he doesn't rest for a second, he will already be tired at this time.

The last 2 minutes must have been a long time.

At this time, the Heat team once again chose to wrap Lin Tian!

The rest of the Pacers team's physical strength is almost to the limit, and the Heat team believes that at this time of the game, the only person who is still a threat to them is Lin Tian! Leonard and Hardaway rushed to Lin Tian for the first time, standing on both sides of Lin Tian, one left and one right.

Facing the double bag, Lin Tian once again suddenly accelerated and forcibly impacted!

The direction he chose was still Hardaway, who had been completely destroyed by himself again tonight.

Poor Hardaway, who claimed to be the fastest person in the alliance, was now chased and beaten by Lin Tian!

Lin Tian knew that he was lacking in physical strength now, and he had to save his physical strength as much as possible, and at the same time, he thought of the most physical saving way to play in his head!

A genre that Lin Tian despises, but must now come up with.

This time, Lin Tian just dribbled the ball towards the 3-point line for two steps and then suddenly stopped, and then suddenly raised his hand and shook it, and Hardaway, who had already been beaten and was highly nervous, immediately jumped up after him.

And then, of course, to be fooled again!

Lin Tian leaned towards Hardaway, and then waved his hands casually towards the sky, and the referee's whistle sounded again!

Lin Tian didn't think about scoring this goal, and now he really has no energy to control his body, then aim at the basket, and then do something 2+1.

In the past, when Lin Tian did this, he was rushing for 1 additional penalty.

But now Lin Tian is doing this, his goal is those 2 free throws!

Touch the porcelain flow!

Lin Tian has to use the free throw line again and again to pause time, recover as much as possible, and at the same time let the team's points continue to grow.

Constantly adjusting his breathing at the free throw line, exhausting the 15 seconds of free throw time as much as possible, allowing himself and his teammates to rest on the court for a few more seconds, and then Lin Tiancai raised his hand to score the ball.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Lin Tian hit all the two free throws in a row, and he also exhausted the 15-second free throw time as much as possible, which is equivalent to fighting for his teammates and himself for almost 3-40 seconds to rest on the court.

87:92!

The gap between the two sides has come to 5 points!

The Heat's offense, they once again hit the ball inside, although Perkins 'only' played 39 minutes tonight, but for his age, he hasn't had cramps yet, and it's really amazing!

As for counting on him to defend against Monin's onslaught?

That's really hard!

Mo Ning also knew very well that the old man opposite him was completely out of breath, so he could basically only interfere with his shooting with his open hands, so he also easily exerted his strength, turned around and put the basket, and scored 2 points for the team!

Although the Heat are behind, they are really not in a hurry now!

Because the walkers are completely immobile and can't be prevented.

Except for Lin Tian, who can still play a little advantage on the offensive end, the other four people are already on the verge of physical collapse at this time!

In fact, it was not Bird who was conservative, and Bonhamnon, Pope and Lewis on the bench all got playing time tonight.

But their performance really can only be described as a disaster!

They can't match the strength of the Heat team at all, not to mention, once the people on the Heat team see these three guys on the court, they will immediately take aphrodisiacs, and they will fight to the death!

The Heat know too well who is easy to bully and who is hard!

As long as the three of them are on the court, they will immediately become the breakthrough point of the Heat team and beat them up!

Therefore, Bird would rather let the exhausted main force hold on for another 2 minutes than let those three guys get beaten up again.

The Pacers' offense didn't force the block again this time, Lin Tian slowed down the tempo, and let his teammates go to the frontcourt first, and then he slowly dribbled the ball over.

These are the precious breaks for the Pacers on the court!

After coming to the frontcourt, Lin Tian once again faced the double bag of Hardaway and Mashburn!

This time, Lin Tian did not hit hard, but called two covers in a row, allowing Davis and Perkins to come out of the inside and give him a high double cover at the top of the arc!

Then Lin Tian took advantage of the four people at the top of the arc to get entangled in a ball, suddenly accelerated, passed through the crowd, and once again killed the vast area of the middle distance!

Barkley said in disbelief: "Lin's physical strength is too scary!" After so long with full power output on both offensive and defensive ends, when one person is supporting the team's system and being surrounded by the Heat team almost all over the court, Lin can still burst out with this speed at this time? ”

"Incomprehensible!" Kenny shook his head and said, "I just looked at the way Lin looked, and I thought he could fall on the court at any time, but he just held on!" It's to be able to punish the Heat again and again! At the same time, I have to say that Lin is not only attacking and not defending tonight! ”

"Hardaway, who is opposite him, has so far made 0 of 8 shots, and still hasn't scored 1 point! This is Hardaway's second consecutive hanging! You know, Hardaway can score 17 points in the regular season! In the first round of the playoffs, he averaged 20 points and 8 assists per game, and was an important contributor to the team's defeat of the Pistons! ”

But now, he is facing the dilemma of scoring two consecutive games! Lin's spiritual willpower is really terrifying! Hey, but Lin's ball is too exposed! Does he no longer have the strength to do ball protection? ”

Kenny's question was because when Lin Tian broke through, he suddenly straightened his hands and completely exposed the ball in front of everyone! This is a very low-level breakthrough method, even if you are a junior high school student, as long as you have taken two basketball lessons, you will know that when you go to the basket, you must put the ball in your arms to protect it.

Otherwise, you will be cut off by your opponent!

But at this time, Lin Tian completely exposed the ball!

Brown, who came over from the opposite side to help defend him, didn't resist this temptation, and directly cut the ball, and slapped the basketball in Lin Tian's hand!

But at the moment when he started, Lin Tian's hands suddenly shifted a little, so Brown didn't hit the basketball this time, but slapped it directly on Lin Tian's hand!

Lin Tian let out a miserable scream, and then made a very exaggerated shooting action, so that the ball became a shooting foul instead of an ordinary foul.

The referee was very face-saving, this obvious foul was the home court of the Pacers again, and they immediately blew the whistle and gave Lin Tian two free throws.

After this breakthrough, Lin Tian was already a little tired and out of breath.

He's really reaching his limits.

Even if it is a very chicken thief and a labor-saving porcelain-style play, which allows Lin Tian to avoid the physical contact and physical exertion he faces when he shoots, when he breaks through, he still needs Lin Tian to use huge willpower to complete the acceleration.

High-fived his teammates, the entire Pacers team didn't say much, they stood silently in their positions, and Lin Tian stood on the free throw line.

"Sam, Dale, don't grab the rebound, go back, go back to our own half and prepare for defense, I can make free throws." Before the free throw, Lin waved his hand away and sent Davis and Perkins away, allowing them to return to their own half of the court so they could get a few more seconds of rest.

And, if the Heat play a quick counterattack, they don't have to run back to defense!

After raising his hand and hitting all 2 free throws, the difference between the two sides is still 5 points!

Next, the Heat gave the ball to Marshburn, and Mashburn once again beat Christie in the low post, this time, he not only scored the ball, but also caused Christie's foul, making it 2+1!

"Huh!"

Marshburn did not disappoint his teammates and successfully played 2+1 to close the score to 2 points!

There are 50 seconds left in the game!

It's still Lin Tian!

This time, Hardaway began to harass Lin Tian from the backcourt, to consume his physical strength and energy, and Mashburn was waiting not far away to prevent Lin Tian from suddenly accelerating past Hardaway.

But at this moment, Lin Tian has obviously lost the strength to run with all his strength from the backfield, and his physical strength must be saved!

After confrontation and slow advancement all the way, when Lin Tian came to the outside of the 3-point line, the offensive time was already less than 12 seconds!

Then, Lin Tian was still pressing time, lowering his center of gravity, waiting for an opportunity.

When there were only 6 seconds left in the attack time, Lin Tian finally started!

Hardaway's nerves were extremely sensitive, and one of his hands had already inserted between Lin Tian's hands, almost dragging Lin Tian's jersey on defense!

At this time, Lin Tian did not break through, but suddenly rose from the ground!

At the same time, Lin Tian's ball carrier hit Hardaway's hand pulling his jersey hard!

"Smack!" A crisp sound that anyone can hear!

Lin Tian almost hung Hardaway's arm and rose to the ground, and then forcibly threw the ball out!

Of course, this ball is impossible to score, Lin Tian no longer has the strength to shoot 3 points with a hanging person, but what he wants, he has already gotten it!

"Toot toot! Foul on the thug! 3 free throws! "The referee gave the penalty quickly!

This ball is also very obvious, everyone can see it, Hardaway pressed Lin Tian's arm, so that he couldn't jump to complete the shot!

Hardaway held his head in his hands in disbelief and jumped up in place: "I didn't! I didn't hit him, he hit me in the arm! I didn't! ”

Yes or no, subjective or objective.

Obviously unimportant.

What the fans and referees saw was Hardaway hanging Lin Tian's arm and hindering his shooting.

Lin Tian once again stood at the free throw line.

At the same time, this foul was Hardaway's sixth foul, and he left the court dejected with 0 points, 7 assists and 5 turnovers.

"Coach, I really didn't want to touch him!" While sitting on the sidelines, Hardaway was still protesting with his hands outstretched!

He didn't understand, why did he foul himself?

He didn't understand and was right.

Lin Tian's move is a 'big loop', but in the league 20 years later, many stars will use the killer move, shameless, simple and easy to use, and at least two versions ahead of the current league, Hardaway can understand that there is a ghost!

I just don't know, if Lin Tian does this, will the 'free throw boom' and the 'rule masters' come to this league in advance and start a completely different set of playing styles?

Well, this thing, at least now it doesn't matter at all, the important thing is that Lin Tian made 3 free throws in a row, and hit all of them again!

He's already scored 7 points in a row with free throws!

The difference between the two sides is still 5 points!

There are 30 seconds left in the game! Now it's the Heat's turn to be in a hurry!

They originally thought that the Pacers had reached their limit and their physical strength had completely collapsed, and as long as they continued to play inside, they would definitely be able to catch up with the score quickly.

Well, they did keep playing inside and making one shot after another with ease.

But the Heat team never imagined that Lin Tian at this time could suddenly play like this, and he could stand on the free throw line 7 times in a row and hit all of them!

All their calculations have become like jokes because of Lin Tian's strength!

This time, the attack was once again handed over to Monin!

After another good arch at Perkins in the low post, Mourning jumped again to complete the shot!

But this time, Perkins, who had been bullied by him for the whole time and had almost no power to fight back, suddenly became strong!

"Got you! Hell for Lao Tzu! Perkins let out a roar and slapped the ball that Mourning had just thrown, and the basketball flew quickly towards the 3-point line.

Hojberg, as the Pacers' most physical person right now, rushed out of the basketball regardless of it!

Seeing that the basketball was about to go out of bounds, this guy jumped and pounced, slid on the floor for a full 3 meters before holding the basketball, and then found Lin Tian before the Heat pressed up and passed the ball out.

After receiving the ball, Lin Tian once again burst out with incredible speed and strength! He accelerated suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, he shook off everyone on the Heat's defense! Killed the front court with a speed that is incomprehensible to ordinary people, and then completed a violent dunk!

It was his first dunk of the night!

It was also his 55th score tonight!

After Lin Tian's dunk, there were less than 15 seconds left in the game, and the 7-point lead was enough for the Pacers to celebrate in advance!

The Pacers almost relied on only 5 and a half men to survive this game and defend their home court!

Off the court, the grim-faced Riley called a timeout and arranged a quick three-point strategy.

But he also knows very well that this suspension is just doing his best!

15 seconds, 7 points, with the Pacers' free throw shooting percentage, there is no chase!

In particular, the Pacers still have 2 timeouts on hand!

If you want to complete the reversal in this situation, you have to have a super miracle!

And as the timeout ended, Leonard's catch-and-shoot 3-pointer popped out of the frame, and after Davis grabbed the rebound and was sent to the free throw line by Brown, the game was officially over.

A miracle didn't happen, or rather, tonight's whole game was a miracle for the Pacers!

Davis's 2 free throws are no longer important, Mourning did not attack again after winning the rebound, but slapped the ball twice on the spot, and when the game time was over, he put the ball on the floor, walked over and patted Davis on the shoulder and said: "It's a good game, I admire you." ”

Then, Mourning turned and left the court!

92:99!

In this game, the Pacers struggled and won!

The moment the final whistle blew, the fans were in a sea of madness and celebration!

They won! They won the game!

The hero of his own team, in a desperate situation, withstood the Heat's counterattack and won the game when a large number of the team's players were absent due to injury!

Those fans who are a little more emotional are even already wiping their tears!

In stark contrast to the crazy cheering and excitement of the fans, it was the Pacers players!

Lin Tian, Christie, Hoiberg, Perkins, Davis, these five people collapsed directly on the floor at the moment of the whistle at the end of the game!

Five people, five big men, lay in five places on the court.

Without any image, he just lay directly on the floor!

They were really tired and they were exhausted tonight!

Bird in the audience also stood up at this time, he applauded his disciples from the bottom of his heart, and even Bird's eyes were a little red.

This game made him so proud, not only Lin Tian's 48-minute explosion of 55 points, 12 assists, 16 rebounds and 5 steals made him proud!

Everyone on the Pacers makes him proud!

Christie, who played 48 minutes, scored 16 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, and Davis, who scored 5 points and 17 rebounds.

and played 40 minutes, is 38 years old, scored 4 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks, including an extremely crucial block veteran who directly made the team lock the win, Sam Perkins!

And, of course, there was Carter, who went off the court after 23 minutes and scored 12 points.

Hojberg played 25 minutes and scored 7 points.

Of course, there are also Pope, Lewis and Birhamnon, who played a total of 8 minutes but did not score 1 point, and only contributed 3 rebounds and 1 assist in total!

The Pacers of this game are really giving it their all and giving it their all.

They held on to their home stadium and their hopes of continuing this series.

They have home court advantage, and holding on to their home court means that the series is not over yet!

After the game, Bird took Lewis and Pope to the post-match press conference, and he looked at the reporters and said: "I know you'd rather interview Ring, Doug or Sam, but they're really tired, let them rest and I can answer your questions." ”

It is very rare that Bird was not responded to by muttering discontent and protests, but by heartfelt applause from reporters.

In this game, the Pacers really conquered them completely, winning the game in this desperate situation, people just don't want to participate in the press conference, what's wrong? That's right!

Rest well!

……

Almost all the media in the United States gave the Pacers the highest and best rating after this game, and they all praised the Pacers' energy in a desperate situation, calling them a new generation of American idols.

After such a game, the Pacers have completely turned the Heat into villains, and now everyone is looking forward to the Pacers relying on this momentum to kill the Heat all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals!

Bird will certainly let his players see these praise and encouragement from the outside world, and he hopes that they can maintain their resilience and strength and continue to prepare for the post-series games.

Between Game 2 and Game 3, there was a three-day, two-night break, and the Pacers arrived in Miami early the next morning, and then they didn't leave the hotel for the next two days!

Bird canceled all of the team's training, and he also temporarily recruited several top physiotherapists and masseurs in Miami, and for the past few days, all the players of the team have been recovering in the hotel to find their feelings.

At the same time, Bird also needs to think about it, and he has to make some trade-offs.

That is, should we take the risk of letting the players fight for another game and win with this momentum, or should we simply give up these two away games, let the players have a good rest, and then fight the Heat with all their strength when they return to their home court?

In addition to Bird being entangled, Lin Tian was actually entangled for two days.

Lin Tian was very hesitant about whether to use that Jordan's experience card.

Lin Tian had a good chat with the team's team doctor team and asked about the situation of their injuries, among these people, except for Carter and Harrington, who may return before the Eastern Conference Finals or even the last two games of this series, the rest of them are likely to be reimbursed in advance of the season.

The rest of the season is simply not enough for them to recover from their injuries, recover from their injuries, find their game feel and play again to contribute.

The time is too rushed, it's completely too late!

But except for Harrington, who has no difference between coming back and not coming back, if Carter comes back alone, with the current lineup of the Pacers, even if it passes the Heat, what next?

With the current lineup of the Pacers, can they win against the Knicks led by Jordan and Ewing? Is there any hope for the Spurs or the Lakers' OK combination?

Just relying on a few main players of the team, with 6 people rotating for 48 minutes, can you withstand it?

Even if Lin Tian can bear it himself, he has a chance to be exempted from injury and illness, and he can increase his physical strength a few times at the risk of gaining weight, but what about his teammates?

Christie had cramps in the last game, and Perkins was fighting until he couldn't walk, so could they hold on to the next game?

After all, there is a limit to people's spiritual strength! After all, their physical strength will be completely overdrawn, and they will not be able to move at all, and they will not be able to keep up with the pace of their opponents at all.

Lin Tian felt that this season's team really had no chance of going to the end to win the championship, if it was now the finals, then Lin Tian would definitely not hesitate to kill everything, and then try his best to win the championship.

But now, the situation of the team is clearly different.

Basketball, after all, is five people!

There are still two and a half rounds of the series to play, at least 13-4 more games have to be played, just like this, Lin Tian knows that his teammates, even if they insist on it, no matter how much they don't say it, they will definitely not be able to resist!

Thinking of this, Lin Tian silently made a decision.

Unless he can really kill the Heat and Knicks all the way to the Finals, he won't use that Jordan experience card.

In other words, Lin Tian will still do his best this season, but he will not choose to fight with an overdraft!
