Chapter 57

Pacers (16-17), Rockets (11-23).

The players from the two sides were gearing up, and many people who didn't communicate much with each other mixed together, patted their shoulders, and shook hands.

This is the culture of a basketball game. Even the players who don’t like each other the most will pretend to be high-fiving each other or other things to confuse them. In front of the camera, don’t look at Granger and Mayo. The two brothers are talking about something, in fact, they may not have even said a word before...

Although the Pacers’ starlight is bleak, there are so many generals, TJ Ford, Roy Hibbert (this person’s draft template is actually Yao Ming), in the dilemma that Yao and Lowry can’t play, enough for the Rockets to carry two pots, plus a double-double machine Troy Murphy, defensive champion Dunta Jones, there is a clear idea on paper...

What the Rockets really need to be wary of is Granger, who just entered the All-Star last year, there is another...

Their onetime firefighting hero, Luther Hyde...

The young man failed to make any money in the Rockets until the end, and was finally sold to the Pacers. Every time he hit the Rockets, his eyes were full of angry flames, as if he was going to eat someone...

"Hyde! Hyde!" Ron shook his head and smiled wryly.

"What's wrong? BOSS!" A few consultants next to him asked curiously.

"You'll know after watching the first quarter..." Ron made a fool of himself, but he kept thinking about Bird's thoughts...

In fact, a good team environment is the reason why they can maintain their competitiveness in the East (6th in the East)... This is inseparable from Bird's painstaking efforts,
This guy must also know something about the human nature of players, and he will definitely work harder on Hyde, but how will he make moves?
Looking forward to it!

The Rockets started Ruhr instead of Lowry, center Hayes, power forward Luis Scola, small forward defensive gate Ariza, and shooting guard ace Mayo.

The Pacers started TJ-Ford, center Roy Hibbert, power forward Troy Murphy, small forward ace arrow Danny Granger, and shooting guard Dunta Jones with good physical fitness.

The last time he was a guest at Indiana, it was the little-known Dunta Jones who ushered in his personal SHOW-TIME, averaging 7 points and 6 rebounds per game, and he actually had 3 times the data in that game...

The Pacers have a lot of guns and strong players on the bench. First, Mike Dunleavy, the same grader as Yao, has been plagued by injuries this season and has given up his position as the starting shooting guard... But white players generally have a good touch. Dunleavy can also be regarded as a veteran, with superb shooting skills and smoothness.

Then there is Luther Hyde, who, as mentioned earlier, has an unusually strong sense of revenge against his old master.

Tyler Hansbrough, the only MOP in the NCAA Final Four in recent years, fell out of the draft lottery. The Pacers "picked up" him, and they only valued his good-natured boy temper who has played basketball for four years and has excellent academic performance.

Jeff Foster, a tough guy, is also the veteran of the three dynasties. He has already played under Bird's coach and manager as early as when he was caught.

I am old and finally got a middle-class contract similar to the loyal employee award. The defense is still as fierce as ever, but unfortunately, the pace gradually cannot keep up with the trend of the times...

"Black Yao Ming" Hibbert and Scola were about to compete for the ball. Ron suddenly noticed that Bird was looking at the slightly immature young center with longing in his eyes...

Heroes are not afraid of low birth. In fact, Hibbert is not even a qualified center at present, but he will improve a little every season. Gold will always shine. Don't worry, I believe time will edify everything.This can be referred to Bynum, who was a useless high school student and is now an indispensable and powerful center for the Lakers dynasty.

The referee whistled, and sure enough Hibbert lived up to Bird's expectations, and raised his hand to pick the ball into the hands of his own players.

TJ Ford galloped forward with full horsepower, and even the small Luhr had a little difficulty sticking to it. He even hit the thinner Luhr, turned around and squeezed the latter away with his butt.The Rockets made up for it in a timely manner. Hayes snatched it with a brisk walk, but failed to copy the ball, but delayed the opponent's speed.

Roy Hibbert picks and rolls, Ford understands, Hayes grabs it again, "Black Yao Ming" turns and walks directly to the free throw line, hits the ground and passes the ball accurately, but Hibbert hesitates, even though Ruhr can't even reach his neck, he still fakes, distributes the ball to Granger in the bottom corner, and then smashes Ruhr away.

This must be slow, both Hayes and Scola have enough time to turn around, but Granger faced the Rockets' best flank defender Tiza, but he relied on his height and long legs to make several shots and fake steps.

Ariza waved his claws like a beast, looking very calm, and his defensive distance was just right. If you shoot, I can just grab it, and if you shoot, I can immediately step back and regain the lost defensive position.

"Look down on me!" Granger sneered, and suddenly called out!
That extremely fast shot was followed by a fallback. Granger's slender wingspan and extraordinary jumping made Ariza feel powerless to defend Nowitzki.

He rushed forward in a hurry, just as his fingertips reached Granger's nose, he drew a beautiful high-throw line in the air, the ball crashed into the net, and 3 points were scored!
Granger stretched out 3 fingers, wiped the floor and ran back...

The Toyota Center was astonished, and a fan suddenly asked weakly: "The number 33...what's his name? I seem to have seen this face in the All-Star Game last year..."

"Granger..." Ron turned around and said kindly, with lingering fears in his heart...

This kind of difficult shooting technique is not born with you. You not only need to practice movement, upper body strength, waist and abdomen strength, etc., but also have a good hand feel. If it is supplemented by the advantages of height and wingspan, the destructive power will be even stronger!

Looking at the entire league, regardless of those random players, I am afraid that the only guys who have this kind of innate overwhelming advantage are the German chariot Lowitzki, the thunder warrior KD, and this one in front of him.

He is the new leader of Indiana's rebuilding period, a versatile small forward who focuses on shooting.Tall and long arms, excellent running and jumping, accurate three-pointers, skilled back-up, clean defense, strong psychological quality, stretched shooting movements, standard hand shape, and a good sense of rhythm.He's an All-Star player.

Of course, his talent is not as good as those at the top of the basketball pyramid, but he works hard, has a gentle and humble personality, and listens to thunder in a silent place. These are character advantages that many people cannot learn.

In fact, this kid is really well-known by Chinese fans, but in the not-too-distant future, he will lead the Pacers to fight the Heat for 7 games without fear of power. In the series against the Heat, Granger will clash with the Heat players in almost every game.

However, after this battle, people's previous impression of a soft guy has been changed, and this has also given him a strong ink color for his brilliant starlight.

Right now it looks like the Pacers are strong!Ron also knows that there are no underdogs in the NBA...

They may not be talented enough to challenge heroes, but they have an excellent commander Bird and a low-key team leader Granger. The salary structure is clear and clear, and the team environment is superior. Ron can now assert that in time, the Pacers will surely survive the post-Reggie Miller era. During this humble rebuilding period, a veteran team in the league will surely rise again...

Is this the team brought out by an excellent basketball manager?

Ron looked reverently at Byrd, who had a calm face.

With Granger taking the lead, the Rockets could only catch up slowly...

In the first half of the first quarter, Mayo was completely blocked by Jones. This guy is like a sticky candy, and his excellent physical fitness makes him helpless for a while.

Only Scola played normally, and Murphy, a double-double machine, was obviously a stat brush and his defense was soft, but even so, Hibbert was soon neglected. His steely muscles, superior height and wingspan made it impossible for the Argentine to succeed as easily as before.

12: 8!

mistake!Scola received the ball inside and handed it over, but Hai Ye hadn't held the ball firmly. Facing the crowded inside line, he immediately threw it to the outside line. Dunta Jones stuck to Mayo as always.

After a few rounds, TJ-Ford thoroughly figured out how much this unmasked first-year point guard weighs. He only suffers from height, and an accelerated change of direction, Cross-over!The other party was dazzled for a while, and the car drove away at full speed...

Breaking into the hinterland of the penalty area again, this time Hayes was pushed behind Hibbert, Scola was caught off guard, and Ford didn't even think about an open jumper!
14-8! 8 minutes and 24 seconds!
"Looks like Houston's luck is over!"

"No no, you know that yesterday's game really consumed them too much energy..."

"Where's Mayo?"

"He enjoys the advantages of the ace, but the Pacers let him feel the distress of the team's ace in advance..."

Is this bastard here to fight me hard?Where did he get so much energy?
Mayo suddenly asked provocatively: "You are so fierce and desperate, does your family know?"

"Give me the ball!"

Before halftime, Mayo yelled at the Spanish boy with a cowardly face under the watchful eyes of the entire Toyota Center fans.

This is the first time Mayo has touched the ball in this game!
He stared at his lower body with slightly angry eyes, staring at the ball in his hand, the blue-collar Jones who never left, that guy would dig out from time to time, and quickly returned to his correct defensive position after losing his hand. Mayo only felt that this guy was as disgusting as a fly...

Suddenly dribbled behind the back, flickering left and right!Mayo's familiar streetball moves once again proved that he has the potential of a star, Cross-Over! Accelerate breakthrough!
As soon as he was about to shake off Dunta-Jones, Jones, who had just been irritated by the trash talk, of course would not let it go. He slapped Mayo all over his arms and gave him a strong bear hug. The official basketball term is called a tactical foul, and in our words it is called shamelessness...

He has passed by, are you still ashamed to follow like an idiot?
It's like you are about to say goodbye to your hemorrhoids, but it turns into a scar that just won't let you be safe...

Fortunately, Mayo is an honest person with a relatively gentle temper. If you encounter such an encounter with the compassionate Daping or the bandit leader Barnes, they will definitely perform full martial arts with you.

This is not a violation of the body, the Toyota Center booed, the referee gave the explanation that Jones touched the ball, and was holding Mayo in a "friendly" way, and had no intention of infringing...

Obviously, the trash talk just now was accidentally heard by the referee, and the two free throws and one throw turned into one throw.

Boos all over the sky, even Scarlett also shouted: "referee-sucks!"

It’s just that OJ Mayo was determined, and he flashed behind Dunta-Jones leisurely...

"Two points will be given to you... Wait until I kick your ass..."

Immediately after finishing speaking, he was turned around and rushed towards the player who made the free throw. Dunta-Jones was taken aback, gritted his teeth and chased after Mayo furiously, trying to find time to give him a shot.

The ball was quickly passed to Mayo. He didn't even want to pull it up and adjust his posture in the air before soaring...

Because he knew that there was a guy behind him who would definitely hurt him, and when his body was subjected to a little external force, he immediately flew to the side with a painful expression...

By the way, I also rolled...

Is there an Oscar?

Who said that only Scola is the actor?

Some spectators exclaimed in uncomprehending cooperation, and more people were furious...

Just forget it, you come again!
"Is this dirty guy here to play football?"

"sucks! asshole!"

The referee whistled, trotted slowly, and stretched out three fingers...

3 penalties!
"What?" All the Pacers players came to ask, and Dunta Jones stomped his feet angrily...

Obviously I just touched him... The bastard flopped!
go down you!

Mayo proudly high-fives his teammates on the field...

Before the half of the first quarter, almost the Pacers' best defensive player, Dunta Jones was replaced by 2 fouls, and the two fouls were separated by less than 1 minute...

He walked to the bench and punched the seat hard, his depressed mood was beyond words...

"Bastard! Just wait and see!"

Satisfied, Mayo made three free throws, 3-14.

Rong Zhi!Ron nodded in satisfaction.

Luther Hyde replaces Jones ahead of schedule!

TJ Ford sprinted all over the court again, the ball went to Granger's hands, Ariza put one hand on the ground, glanced away with the other hand, and stuck to him with all his strength.

It seems that the left-handed Granger gave up this one-on-one duel, he turned the ball inside, Hibbert put a small hook on the ferocious bottom of Haiye, and missed...

Fast attack!Mayo took the lead, and Scola threw the rebound to the front immediately.

It's so cool without the "dog skin plaster"!
Mayo shook continuously, dribbled the ball under his crotch, and broke through!

Luther Hyde staggered and almost slipped, inside!Only the fast TJ Ford is left!He obviously hasn't had time to set up his horse to meet the enemy!
Mayo up!Ignore this short man with a headband...

"Take a shot at me!" He roared and drew his hand towards the basket like a sharp knife... The domineering voice was even exaggerated and cheered by the nearby fans...

boom!Gliding dunk!

Even Drexler, the glider, applauded excitedly!

"Time-out!" The Pacers coach hurriedly called a timeout.

The advantage of 6 points was pushed back in an instant, cheering shouts continued in the aerospace city, and all the Rockets players changed their faces, eager to try their hands...

This is what is called a taxi balloon!
Mayo's knowing blow caught the Pacers by surprise!
look!The red waves are surging like mountains and seas; listen!All the best words and smiles to the city's new hero!

...

In the corner of the court, a guy who had prayed for this kind of treatment day and night buried his head deeply...

He has always been the most honest and honest kid here...

He never competed with others for anything...

Submissive... Trembling... Submissive to survive in the team...

And he has given his all for this honor...

He still believed in the nonsense that what you pay for will be rewarded... until one day, he was thrown away like garbage by Aerospace City...

"Wait! Just watch carefully!..."

A burning fire of vengeance ignited in my heart... -Luther Hyde
 I wish my idol Lin Hai Tingtao's new book a great hit!The glory of the champion never fades!
