Basketball Myth: Super Guard

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

Several Pacers players gasped on their knees, sweat dripping down their chins, forming a string.

By this time the game had reached the third quarter and the Pacers trailed by as much as 17 points.

From the first quarter, the Pacers strengthened their defense and offense, the intensity of the game began to increase, and the confrontation became fierce, which consumed a lot of physical energy on both sides.

What makes the Pacers more depressing is that, even so, they still failed to narrow the point difference, and could only watch the point difference expand a little bit, until it reached 17 points today.

"Fake, don't the 76ers know that they are tired?" Rush cursed depressedly.

At this point, the three quarters have not ended, and the game has played more than two quarters. The Pacers players are already feeling very tired, but the 76ers players look better.

This made Rush even more depressed.

"They are also tired, but they just can't feel it." Granger sighed and smiled bitterly: "Who makes us lagging behind all the time."

Hearing this, Rush also understood.

This kind of high-intensity game will consume a lot of physical energy on both sides, but the side with the lead, especially when there are more leads, will not feel very tired. Only the one who lags behind, because they have been working hard to chase points, but the score is still behind. Physical exhaustion, coupled with psychological loss, will make them more prone to fatigue.

Watching his players panting and sweating profusely, the Pacers head coach felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have had a head-to-head fight with the 76ers, making the game more intense.

But if it wasn't like that, wouldn't it mean being pressed and beaten by the other party?

But in the current situation, being behind by as much as 17 points is no different from being beaten by the 76ers.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to win this game today." The Pacers head coach sighed inwardly.

Of course, he wouldn't say such words. It's time to make a substitution. Replace a few main players and replace them with substitutes.

It's just the situation at this time, even if the head coach doesn't say it, the Pacers players know in their hearts that it is almost impossible to win.

at the same time.

On the side of the 76ers, Coach Luke praised the players and began to make substitutions, replacing Qin Hao, Iguodala, etc. and letting them rest.

After a while, the game continued.

Both sides were put into rotations, and the Pacers were demoralized, players lost their fighting spirit, and defensive intensity dropped.

There was only one exception, and that was George.

"Ball." George ran back to get the ball, followed by a breakthrough, hugged the ball and rushed inside, Mozkov stood under the basket, and when he saw George rushing in, he immediately gave him a block.

Snapped!

I don't know that George is very smart, and he didn't rush to shoot. In the air, Mozkov's arm fell and hit George's arm.

The referee blew the whistle, gave Mozkov a foul, signaled George to the free throw line and executed two free throws.

"Shh, shh!"

George made two free throws. He felt a handful of sweat and quickly turned back to defense, growling in his heart: "There is still more than one quarter, and the game is not over yet."

Others have lost their fighting spirit and are ready to give up, but George does not intend to give up, after all, he is only 21 years old.

Stubborn, unwilling to admit defeat.

Dozens of seconds later, George once again hit the inside line, this time successfully scored, and still scored two points in a dunk.

George is in very good form today. He doesn't play a lot, but he is very efficient and has scored 16 points so far.

For the next few minutes, George was the Pacers' top performer.

Whether on the defensive end or on the offensive end, George played very well, especially the kind of hard work that did not admit defeat, which moved the fans.

"Future All-Star players are indeed extraordinary." Qin Hao thought to himself, looking at the scoreboard. With George's excellent performance in the past few minutes, he helped the Pacers to chase some points. The difference has now increased from 17 to 17. The score was reduced to 12 points.

When the third quarter ended, the score was 12 points apart.

......

Into the last quarter, the two sides still have a good rotation.

The idea of ​​the Pacers head coach is very simple. Since George is playing well, let him continue to play. The 12-point difference is still a bit large. If it can be reduced to within ten points, then they will have a chance to come back. Then replace the rest of the main players, and the 76ers to a showdown.

And George did not let him down. Soon after the fourth quarter, he hit a difficult three-pointer, reducing the difference to within ten points in one fell swoop.

"Coach." Qin Hao stood up, "let me go."

Coach Luke nodded, he was going to call a timeout, but Qin Hao took the initiative to ask Ying, then there was no need: "Okay, go on, replace Holiday."

The 76ers made a substitution.

Seeing Qin Hao coming up, George's pupils shrank, feeling the danger.

Qin Hao smiled at George and narrowed his eyes. He and George had a good relationship, but they were on the court at this time, no matter if they were personal friends, they were just opponents.

Qin Hao admired George's performance today and his stubbornness in not admitting defeat, and even wanted to give him a thumbs up - but he wouldn't show mercy.

"Pick-and-roll."

After Qin Hao came to the front court, he asked for a pick-and-roll. Mozkov stepped forward and blocked the defender. George also rushed over, delaying in time.

However, Qin Hao didn't make a breakthrough, and he took a step laterally and made a three-point shot.

"Shh!"

With a bang, the ball went in.

George's face changed, but he could only sigh helplessly. Where is Qin Hao's strength, whether it is himself or the rest of the Pacers, he can't defend Qin Hao one-on-one.

And turned around, when the Pacers attacked, George just got the ball and Qin Hao posted it, opened his hands and stared at George.

"You..." George smiled bitterly, but he still played very resolutely. He knew that the speed was not as good as Qin Hao's, and it was not easy to break through, so he made a step-back jumper.

It was just a bang, but it didn't hit.

George played well during this period, but his physical energy was very high. In addition, Qin Hao's defense was under great pressure. At this time, George was still struggling to face Qin Hao.

After a few rounds, the 76ers stabilized the situation, and the score difference returned to more than ten.

The Pacers head coach called a timeout, replaced George with the main player, and wanted to make a last-ditch effort.

The result was not successful. Several main players did not have much fighting spirit at this time, not to mention the 76ers also sent the main lineup.

By the end of the game, the score was set at 119:108. The 76ers defeated the Pacers by 11 points and won their first victory after the All-Star weekend.

The 76ers were in the lead throughout the game, completely pressing the Pacers to play, which made the Pacers players feel very depressed.

Several main players did not play very well, but George, the bench, made people's eyes shine, but it is a pity that he is still too young.
