Chapter 547 An Sheng's Poisonous Chicken Soup
The Pacers' defense began to become fierce when they fell behind to double digits. They would squeeze through the pick-and-roll very fiercely, and they would never let the opponent take advantage of it. There is also a bit of an attitude of turning a blind eye to the action.

One reason is that this is the home court of the Pacers, the home court of the No. [-] team in the Eastern Conference. Although it will not be too obviously partial, the referee will definitely hesitate to deal with some key fouls at home. One point is that this battle for the first place in the East and West, the referee certainly does not want such a game that should become a classic to become a massacre.

In this season's Christmas game, the Clippers, with multiple injuries, obviously had no intention of fighting. They lost a big loss in that game. The game that should have been the top of the ratings list was ruined because the Heat were the first to leave work after three quarters. Ratings dropped rapidly.Although the Clippers had a miserable game, they were the leaders of this phenomenon. 90% of the games they won were clocked out in three quarters, and they lost suspense early.

Such a situation occurred in the league's game of controlling the Clippers, one of which is to control from the referee's penalty scale.

The trend of the game that was going to continue to increase the score was relaxed by the referee. The Pacers strengthened their defensive and stealing "tacit cooperation" and controlled it. They can play three quarters against other teams, but this game, damn you still Leave me a little suspense!

The young Evan Fournier obviously couldn't adapt to such a change all at once, and he made the last two turnovers under the high-stealing defense. Of course, all Clippers players thought it was a foul, but if it was really a foul, according to Counting the number of fouls, the Clippers should make free throws, and the Pacers have no chance to attack. There may already be a 20-point gap inside and outside. For fans who want to see a hearty game, Such a scene was not what they wanted to see. Naturally, the whistle that was already in their mouths was not blown.

The two sides entered the second half with a point difference of 11 points. The Clippers led by a score of 63:52. Both sides were not very satisfied with the point difference. Still played such a fierce fighting power in the game, but the Clippers felt that several defensive actions in the first half were definitely fouls.I only lead by 11 points, which is completely inconsistent with my perfect performance in the first half!
Today's referee is already a veteran referee, otherwise he would not have come to enforce such an important game. He looked at the unhappy expressions of the players on both sides and shook his head. Sure enough, such an important game is for him It's really not an easy thing to do.

Back in the locker room, Evan Fournier was moping about his performance in the second quarter, his first for the Clippers, and the two turnovers in a row might look like nothing now The big deal, after all, the lead is huge. Even with two mistakes, they still have a double-digit lead. The final, and even the crucial tie-break, how much this hit the team!
"Hey! Dude! Take it easy and walk back to the locker room with you. I wonder if we finished the first half with a trail of more than ten points!" Anson patted Evan Fournier's Shoulder, also as an international player of the Clippers, Anson still has a good impression of the newcomer Evan Fournier.In the NBA, international players and American players are definitely treated at two levels.The development of the United States in basketball is far beyond imagination, and there are not many international players who can play in the NBA.

Evan Fournier shook his head and said: "Ann! At the end of the first half, my two performances were really terrible. Brad will not be satisfied with my performance!"

"Don't worry! The whole world knows that it should be two fouls, and the boss will never dnp any player at will. When I was still in college, I didn't play very well at that time. When deciding on us I came off the bench during the regular season when it was a few seeds, and I almost wiped out that slippery guy on the defensive end. He scored 18 points, 14 of which were open shots Got it. And our team also lost in that game, from the No. 3 seed to the No. 4 seed, and had to face the No. 16 seed Syracuse University in the West in the round of [-]." An Sheng Shrugging his shoulders, he didn't mind telling about the black history of being blown up by others when he was in college.

At this time, the voice of Brad Stevens suddenly appeared next to the two of them: "Then I was not disappointed in you, and I let you play against Syracuse University, and then you Completed the redemption in the Syracuse University game, became the key hero of that game, and finally led us to win the championship, and also became the MOP of the semi-finals? And now even became the NBA championship, No. 1, double MVP?"

The voice was a little teasing, and An Sheng turned around and saw Brad Stevens following behind him.The young marshal looked at the two people in front of him with a smile on his face, and said, "Evan, you can pretend that you have never heard of all the chicken soup that Ann uses as his own experience. The reason is very simple. This guy's legendary experience is Like Michael, maybe it will be more exaggerated than Michael in the future, and I can make a movie. After losing that game, I was so angry that I wanted to never let him play. But there is no way, I have no one to use, otherwise This guy probably has gone back to his country to play by now."

"Of course, I don't have any opinion on you in this game. My opinion is the same as that of Ann. You played very well, at least much better than I imagined. I thought we rebuilt a new lineup today. In the evening, you will be given a good start by the opponent. It seems that you have adapted perfectly to the overall system of our team, so I am very satisfied. As for the mistakes, that is normal. Let alone you, the MVP next to you, He averaged 2.3 turnovers per game, and if he didn't make a single turnover in any game, that would be big news."

What Brad Stevens said made An Sheng roll his eyes, but since the young coach is here, there is nothing else to do here. It is more appropriate for the coach to do things like pouring chicken soup to the players. Besides, Brad Stevens Doesn't De Stevens still think his chicken soup is poisonous?
