96. Early celebration(1/2)

But in the next few rounds, they were still trying to beat the Pacers, and they only scored two points with Reggie Miller's free throw, while the Nets scored two more goals in three rounds. One goal was Zhang Hao's three-pointer to Chiles in the other corner, and the other goal was Vaughan Fleming's cut-in and hit a throw.

Coupled with the all-in-one connection that Zhang Hao supported the pass for the first time, and the earlier turnover jump shot, the Nets scored a 9-2 wave!

41 to 36, the Nets led the Pacers by 5 points and stopped the Pacers!

"This dog is more than a cub..."

Pacers players surrounded Larry Brown and heard Larry Brown cursing.

In terms of coaching ability, Pacers players have no doubts about Larry Brown. Larry Brown has created excellent defense for them, but in terms of personality, Larry Brown is difficult to compliment.

It looks like an old professor, but his mouth is so stinky that he starts to curse when encountering something unpleasant.

However, it has been more than two years since Pacers players have become accustomed to it.

On the other hand, the Nets' bench is very excited!

The situation was too unfavorable for them at one point. Seeing that the good shooting feel in the first quarter was about to be exhausted by the opponent, Zhang Hao's back kick opened up the situation.

Reggie Miller, who played against the opponent for 19 minutes, has already put on the training suit, which means that the Pacers will have to tackle the defense for a long time! As long as their Nets continue their offensive performance in this quarter, they may establish a clear lead in the first half and have the opportunity to withstand the counterattack of all the opponents at a critical moment in the third quarter!

According to Almond Gilliam's condition tonight, they have the ability to beat the Pacers while Reggie Miller was resting, but the premise is that their outside shooting feel is not exhausted and there is still a lot of difference in points behind, otherwise it will be difficult.

Now, because of Zhang Hao's performance in the first few rounds of the timeout, these problems are gone!

Randy Whitman was already very nervous, but now, he was in high spirits and was setting up his offense for more than 4 minutes of the first half, just follow the style of playing in the first quarter.

Defense...just looking at the sky, if the opponent Reggie Miller is not there, just block the shot and the basket.

...

Almond Gilliam played with great courage!

Chiles, Zhang Hao, Edwards, and Jason Williams followed the boss to play.

In the last four minutes of the first half, Zhang Hao took a walk in the middle distance on the left side of the three-second zone. When he had the chance, he would catch the ball or pass it, watching Almon Gilliam chisel into the crowd and call Almon Gilliam.

Schmitz's weak defense was exposed to maximization. The Pacers' most feared is a fierce forward like Almond Gilliam.

The Pacers can play such a stable offensive success rate at the beginning, their main lineup cooperates stably on the offensive end, and Mark Jackson and Schmitz's offensive analysis in positional battles, these two points are very important, and another point is that they can always use defense to make the opponent crazy in the rotation stage.

In the first 6 games of this season, they only encountered an explosion of mentality on the defensive end, which was when they played against the Magic. Anthony Hardaway scored 36 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists. In the other 5 games, they defended well. Another loss was that they scored and scored in the last moment, but they had always defended well.

This time, being beaten like this by a weak team like the Nets, the Pacers were a little impatient to catch up with the point difference by attacking.

But the Pacers are characterized by stability rather than explosion, and their impatient offense actually reduces the success rate.

With one go, the Nets expanded their lead to 9 points with a 54-45 goal!

The Nets played well in this quarter, and they were originally polished like that by the Pacers. Seeing that they had entered the pace of the Pacers, the Pacers could enjoy a slow-paced and efficient offense after Mark Jackson and Schmitz returned. The Pacers were instead hit by the Nets with a 27-18 single quarter climax.

On the way back to the locker room, Almond Gilliam excitedly came to Zhang Hao, his best helper tonight: "How are your brother fighting tonight? Can I stand it if I'm going to hang up?"

Zhang Hao frowned, the kind that others could not detect. After thinking about it, he responded: "I don't look, but Almon is really like a man tonight, and he deserves to be the star with the strongest offensive ability in our team."

Almond Gilliam sounded comfortable! Although Zhang Hao recognized Kenny Anderson as the boss, he had never denied his singles ability. In addition, his cooperation was so good today, the more he looked at Zhang Hao, the more he liked him.

However, Almon Gilliam, who was outspoken, felt that something was wrong with Zhang Hao's words, but he couldn't think of it...

During the halftime break, the Nets fully boosted their morale and continued to play with great courage.

It is to boost morale. This time it is Butch Baird's turn to make the midfield arrangement.

Because the style of playing is very different from the tactical meeting before the game, the style of playing in the first half will be enough. If there are any problems, make on-the-spot adjustments.

On the other hand, Larry Brown was furious after returning to the locker room, and the effect was quite good.

In the second half, the Pacers' players' mentality was obviously stable, playing very stably, calmly defending and cautiously attacking.

The Nets played an advantage in the first half and had a structure in the offense.

However, although the Nets worked very hard, the Pacers' strategy of playing steadily in the third quarter gradually narrowed the gap.

It is true that the gap in strength is there. Although Larry Brown does not have any adaptability, his coaching strategy is stable and he is good at leveraging his own advantages.

The Pistons scored 26-20 in the third quarter, showing their strong team's style very well, that is, they can continue to ensure the offensive success rate in the third quarter!

The Nets have worked very hard, especially Almond Gilliam, who scored 9 points and 1 assist in a single quarter, and their individual scores increased to 27 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists in three quarters. His best performance since the new season has almost helped the Nets maintain a slight lead.

Zhang Hao gave Almond Gilliam the greatest support, scoring 21 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in three quarters.

At the last break between the quarters, Reggie Miller looked at the opposite bench on the Pacers bench. Almond Gilliam broke out, which was indeed an unexpected situation, but Almond Gilliam had that ability. The accident was that Almond Gilliam was not afraid of encountering double Davis this time.

What really surprised Reggie Miller was the high school student, the kind of playing field that enjoyed the game, the kind of football merchandising his advantages to the extreme as much as possible...

On the other hand, Zhang Hao was indeed very dedicated and enjoyed such a game, but after entering the rest time, he muttered: "I made 6 mid-range shots, Miller 7, Damn, the game is about to be reversed, and I am also surpassed..."

When he arrived outside the three-point line on the opposite side, Zhang Hao put away his messy thoughts and looked at the backcourt. Kenny Anderson advanced through the halftime under the entanglement of Mark Jackson.

After coming outside the three-point line, Kenny Anderson began to play singles.

Kenny Anderson could not stop Mark Jackson's back-attack, but few point guards in the NBA could withstand it, but Kenny Anderson's speed flow breakthrough, and few point guards in the NBA could also stop it!

Kenny Anderson jumped straight to the bottom line with speed, then a Tim Hardaway-style emergency stop cross-step changed direction, and went to the right side of the three-second zone and flew to the throw... The ball flew over Schmitz, who came back to defend, and plunged into the basket!

Standard point guard-style breakthrough small throw!

During the offense and defense transition, Mark Jackson continued to play back from outside the three-point line, and PJ Brown began to move towards the free throw line in advance, so it would be too dangerous to let Mark Jackson reach the low position area.

Mark Jackson keenly passed the ball out and gave Derek McKay to the top arc. Derek McKay to the top arc to support him. Zhang Hao had already seen Dele Davis cut in, but Schmitz pressed him tightly, and he could not tell who Derek McKay to the top arc to. Dele Davis cut into the basket smoothly, received a pass from Derek McKay to block Zhang Hao, using Schmitz as a barrier, and easily threw and scored two points.

The Pacers' offense this time is dragging and smelly. Passers-by and fans don't think about it, but it's really amazing!

After these two rounds, not only Zhang Hao felt that Mark Jackson might be the template for his back-attack and organization of offense, but even the Nets coaching staff thought so.

But they can't say it's Mark Jackson's weird playing style, or is it Zhang Hao's playing style problem...

Anyway, the two of them play differently.

During offense and defense conversion, Kenny Anderson continued to break through. When Kenny Anderson broke through, Zhang Hao discovered the changes in the opponent's defensive position, and tried to analyze the possibility of opponent's defensive movement and the possible changes in the movement of teammates' position.

Seizing the opportunity, Zhang Hao took the initiative to go around from the upper line, and when Kenny Anderson broke to the bottom line, he came to the left of the free throw line.

As Zhang Hao analyzed, Kenny Anderson was blocked at the right side of the three-second zone! At the same time, Chiles's receiving line outside the three-point line with a 45-degree angle on the right was blocked, and the passing space on the left bottom line where he was just now was also blocked.

But just in time, the Pacers revealed the passing route facing Kenny Anderson in the three-second zone! Kenny Anderson saw Zhang Hao appear there and took the ball as soon as possible!

The Pacers made quick defense, but Zhang Hao made a decisive move. Before the Pacers made a comeback, Zhang Hao made a mid-range shot...

The distance from the free throw line is so comfortable, Zhang Hao made another shot in the mid-range shot!

It's 23 points!

78 to 75, the Nets continued to maintain a lead.

The Pacers' game has a very distinctive feature, which is because of their offense. You can often see that they play very well in the first quarter, and the offense suddenly falls to the bottom of the second quarter, and then become very good in the third quarter. During this period, their defense has been very stable, and the same is true tonight.

The most obvious feature is that their attack at the beginning of the fourth quarter is always very strong, even more powerful than the first quarter. With strong defense, they can often defeat their opponents at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

There is no need to mention the defensive end. This characteristic of their offensive end was brought by Mark Jackson. Their offensive end was entirely due to the addition of Mark Jackson. Before Mark Jackson came, they were an ordinary playoff team with great player configuration, but their strength was an ordinary playoff team. The addition of Mark Jackson last season gave them a stable and efficient offensive performance. With the defense created by Larry Brown, they played so well.

It can be seen that Mark Jackson is one of the best offensive stability in the league. After Mark Jackson's strong attack time, the offensive efficiency will be reduced by one level. When Mark Jackson goes down to rest, their offense will be reduced by another level.

Mark Jackson is not physically strong and usually uses his back to start the offense in the fourth quarter of an anxious game. The Pacers can always play the strongest offensive performance during this period.

But tonight, the Nets still maintained a leading advantage in the first half of the fourth quarter, with the strongest attack on the Pacers!

After playing several rounds in the fourth quarter, the Nets still led the Pacers by two points 84-82, and the Nets attacked next!

With Derek McKay cutting the pass and playing out of bounds, the Pacers temporarily interrupted the Nets' offense and died, calling a timeout.

Reggie Miller returned to the bench cursingly. Teammates had long discovered that after Larry Brown came to the team, Reggie Miller's mouth became even more vicious.

But they are really furious now!

Almond Gilliam began to explode in the first quarter, and Zhang Hao reversed the situation in the critical consumption stage for the Pacers in the second quarter. They finally made an advantage in the third quarter and began to narrow the score difference. However, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Kenny Anderson broke through again with a life-like breakthrough, and the success rate was still very high!

In these rounds, the Nets' three strong points showed their ability. Zhang Hao came up with a mid-range shot and passed the ball to Chiles on the sideline with another catch-up support. Although Chiles failed to make a three-pointer, Almond Gilliam rushed in and made a tip-in with Schmitz.

The Pacers scored 11 points in the first three minutes of the fourth quarter, but the Nets also scored 10 points, and it was their Pacers' first attack!

But at this time they were not as anxious as in the second quarter. Reggie Miller, Dale Davis, and Antonio Davis were squirting wildly. Their cursing looks made by the other teammates instead want him to calm down.

This may be the "positive significance" of the trolls to the team.

The Pacers' three major trolls were really unhappy tonight. Dale Davis was tortured by Gilliam tonight. Because the center defense was weak and soft, they didn't like to meet teams with forwards like Almond Gilliam, Larry Sanders, and Charles Barkley. Their most obvious weakness on the defensive end was taken advantage of by the opponent.

Almond Gilliam was sprayed for almost the whole game, not only did he not make the opponent perform abnormally, but also made the opponent explode. The Joker became Dale Davis himself.

Reggie Miller dislikes Kenny Anderson. He was the All-Star starter last season. Kenny Anderson was the All-Star starter last season. He was both the Eastern Conference defender player. He was often compared with each other. The more beautiful style of the game, Kenny Anderson obviously had a higher evaluation. Kenny Anderson's data tonight was not very good, but Reggie Miller has always had a headache to meet a speed defensive player. He is not afraid of being a strength-type player. He is not weak in fighting against this, but it is really hard to deal with the fast speed.

Moreover, no matter how Reggie Miller sneered, Kenny Anderson only responded to one sentence after hearing a high school player who did not want to be named: "I became an All-Star starter earlier than you."

Reggie Miller was so angry that his liver hurt!

But what disgusted Reggie Miller the most was the high school student. The reason why he disliked that high school student was exactly the same as Antonio Davis. It was not because Zhang Hao played so well. They were unhappy. There were so many players who played well. What they were unhappy was Zhang Hao's calm look.

It really seems like I need to be beaten!

No matter how he squirted, Zhang Hao did not respond. There was a hint of joking in his eyes from time to time, as if he was saying - that's it?

Haven't you got some new words?

In fact, Zhang Hao really wanted to swear back, but he wanted to keep a low profile.
To be continued...
