Chapter 172 The exhausted opponent gets a good start
Crawford was very excited, but Li Lei, who was sitting on the bench, was not so optimistic. As the future super sixth man, Crawford, like other sixth men, had a common problem that could not be solved-the defense was poor, and some sixth men had good defense, but those people definitely did not include Crawford.The latter is an existence that can score but never pass, can pass and never defend, can defense be eaten, or score is cool.

In the next round of defense, Li Lei's guess was confirmed. Although Jaylen Rose couldn't control his mouth all day long, his personal ability was stronger than that of Crawford. In the case of one-on-one defense, this guy was still trustworthy. At the same time, facing Crawford, who was strong in offense and weak in defense, Jaylen Rose responded with a three-pointer from the outside.

Tom Dole took back what he said just now. If Crawford was really like Li Lei, then he would not sit on the bench to watch the water cooler last season.

Just after Kevin Ollie arrived, Crawford was about to get the ball. Kevin Ollie gave the ball to Crawford. The latter faced Jaylen Rose and made another three-pointer.

The Pacers turned around and took advantage of Crawford's poor defense. Jaylen Rose completely became Larry Bird on the bench. He was passing and defending.

When Li Lei came back from the bench, the Bulls not only expanded the score, but were reduced by 2 points. Crawford scored 6 points, but the Pacers' offense also did not fall behind.

The Bulls started here, as did the Pacers, and the two sides started shopping again in 8 minutes of the second quarter.

Li Lei controlled the ball, and Tinsley somehow wanted to steal it near the center line. Facing Tinsley's move, Li Lei didn't feel nervous at all. He lightly switched the ball to the other hand, and then smashed the ball to the ground. With a bang, the ball flew into Brand's hand at the top of the arc like a cannonball.

"Bruce once again showed us his insight beyond ordinary people, and another ultra-long ground pass, which is really beautiful."

Isiah Thomas opened his mouth and didn't spray Jamal Tinsley's ball just now. If Tinsley steals successfully, it will be a good shot. If it fails, it will become the current background board.

Tinsley quickly adjusted his mentality. The Pacers attacked, and he wanted to back Li Lei. Li Lei tried to steal, but the guy actually passed the ball to Xiao Ao, who scored another point in the paint.

This guy was able to go from the street court to the NBA. It's really not luck. He is also capable. Li Lei controlled the ball and faced Tinsley. He made a sudden shot. This shot caught Tinsley a bit off guard. "Oh, the iconic three-pointer came from Bruce. This is Bruce's second shot in this game. He has taken 2 shots and scored 6 points, but he now has 4 assists. Jamal Tinsley, who is facing him, only has 1 shot."

Isiah Thomas called a timeout. He felt that Li Lei was about to launch a wave of three-pointers. "Pay attention to double-teaming. Bruce is about to start a three-pointer performance. We must double-team. We must be decisive. Don't hesitate." Isiah Thomas bit the word decisively very hard.

The Pacers, who came back from a timeout, still had no problem attacking. Reggie Miller used his running position to score points, but he was entangled by Artest, a muscular man, in this quarter.

On the side of the Bulls, Li Lei arrived in the frontcourt, and the Pacers were double-teaming. Li Lei activated Sam Gold, but the speed buff did not trigger this time. Li Lei pulled the ball back, an over-the-top ball, and when it reached the inside, Chandler got the ball and dunked it on Jermaine. Brarosandov didn't realize it at all, but Jerome's position became the opponent's background board.

Isiah Thomas’s face was ugly, and he looked at the bench, “Go on, Al, you’re trying to lure Brand out for me, don’t let him pester Jermaine.” Isaiah Thomas finally couldn’t take it anymore for Bralosandev, but Austin Crohill was also embarrassing, so he had to play Al Harrington, but the latter’s defense, eh, forget it, let’s make up for it with offense.

Once Harrington played, he changed the situation on the field. Brand was indeed attracted by him, but Jr. and Chandler did not have much advantage in one-on-one.

So the situation of the game was still very tense. At the end of the third quarter, the point difference between the two sides was still five points. Li Lei's stats became 6 points and 9 assists.Richardson has scored 18 points, the highest scorer in the game.

The back-to-back disadvantages of the Pacers began to manifest slowly. In the fourth quarter, their double-teaming was obviously not as good as before. Li Lei seized the opportunity to use Parker to break through and get inside to score points.It was a 2+1. Al Harrington actually fouled Li Lei. Li Lei scored a free throw and he scored 9 points.

Harrington came up and let the Pacers' defense down a notch. Because of the back-to-back relationship, Jr. couldn't play against Chandler in the fourth quarter. Chandler took advantage of the opponent's exhaustion and received a pass from Li Lei. It was either a dunk or an alley-oop. Li Lei never sympathized with his opponent, he would only intensify.Make you die faster.

The Pacers were very resilient, but they still couldn't hold back against the Bulls' youth and impact. In the end, the Pacers suffered another defeat in the away game. After a two-game losing streak, Li Lei scored 5 points in 13 shots and 14 assists, 4 steals, and 1 block.

The highest scorer for the Bulls was Richardson, who scored 27 points, and the other three starters also scored in double figures. In addition to the starters, Crawford on the bench also contributed 12 points, all of which were three-pointers. In this game, Li Lei did not shoot three-pointers, and this guy made all three-pointers.The entire United Center has not ushered in a good start to the new season for a long time.
