Chapter 449: Thanks by the 76ers coaching staff

The 76ers' rhythm was very poor. Embiid was upset by Lin Sen's trash talk. He did not play the game as a top center a month ago. At this time, the 76ers' ball rights unknowingly began to move closer to another core player, Simmons.

Compared to Lin Sen's trash talk, Gordon's obviously not trained. Simmons was very angry, but he had not lost his mind yet. He knew what his advantage lies.

After Simmons got the ball, he used his height to start making trouble. Simmons and Embiid seem to be a very opposite typical. Simmons has a good basic dribbling level, has fast progress, has strong breakthrough ability, and has good finishing ability. But as a point guard, he doesn't have 3 points. Embiid's inside skills are good, but his dribbling ability? Forget it! But he has three points in one hand.

Simmons leaned directly on Gordon's body, and then suddenly accelerated and crushed in, and wanted to deduct! The 76ers seemed to have a good opportunity to make their first goal in the sports game appear.

Lin Sen, who had just completed a steal counterattack against Embiid, once again stood up on the defensive end and completed a block in the air. Simmons was very strong and had a strong finishing ability. Otherwise, a player who had no three-point ability or even had no jump shot basically scored 17 points per game by breaking through. This finishing ability is not something that ordinary players can compare with, but Lin Sen completed the block after completing an extremely fierce confrontation with Simmons.

"I finally saw an opportunity, but it was gone?" Barkley looked at the scene with a little sadness. "When will the first goal of these 76ers score in the first sports game appear!"

Before the game, let’s talk about how anxious the two sides will play in this game, how fierce Lin Sen and Embiid will play. How will Simmons hit the inside line? Many people naturally want to see the old strong teams fail, so that there will be a topic. But Lin Sen’s performance is like this? It’s better not to beat them.

Coach Brown immediately added a timeout to adjust it at this time. The 76ers team's operation relies more on these two cores. Reddick has no independent offensive ability at all. He helps the team open up space and finds opportunities to play their offense. Covington is a typical 3D player. Sharic played very well last season and is almost the best rookie, but he is obviously not as good as the ball without the ball.

The cold state of the dual-core obviously makes the Pacers unable to win. This timeout requires the 76ers to remain calmer, allowing the two young men under their command to retrieve them before.

But after the timeout, the Pacers played better. They replaced Grant and chose to use Grant to defend Simmons. There was no disadvantage in height and speed. It was obviously more suitable to defend Simmons than Gordon and Oladipo. They claimed to play point guard but did not have three-pointers.

On the outside, Redick was targeted. Oladipo defended well. The Pacers' defense forced the 76ers to hand over all the balls to the young double core to handle.

Mistakes, cut off, blocked, and other things happened again and again on the court. The 76ers team was divided into individuals playing instead of a strong whole. Among them, Lin Sen's defense and his trash talk were the most important ones.

Embiid was very injured. Lin Sen rested in the whole first half. As soon as he came on the court, Lin Sen came immediately, as if to target him. Yes, he was not wrong. Lin Sen was targeting him. But there was no way. Embiid's playing time is still strictly limited by 76ers, and his average playing time cannot exceed 30 minutes. It is impossible to compare with Lin Sen's Iron Man who averages 37 minutes per game. There are not many center players in the entire league who can match Lin Sen who has obtained a perpetual motion machine. Moreover, Lin Sen is still a regular clock in and gets off work in three quarters.

2 of 8 shots scored 7 points and 8 rebounds! This data seems that Embiid's biggest function may be to protect the backcourt rebounds.

Coach Brown was 16 points behind in the halftime, but there was no unhappy expression in the visiting team's locker room: "Joel, have you felt the strength of MVP and the first-team center in last year's finals? I said at the beginning of the game that maybe you will have a good chance when you are one-on-one in the penalty area, but when you stand on the field to play, you may not be his opponent."

Akini, the defensive assistant coach on the side, also nodded: "Lin is very good at playing basketball and is very smart. He will clearly understand the advantages and disadvantages of himself and the opponents, so he will not let you catch the ball inside and force you to attack outside."

Lin Sen, who was chatting with his teammates in the home team's locker room, would probably be happy if he heard the other two coaches praise him as such. Next post: At the end of the half, the other coach praised him for his smart playing ball. What do you think?

On this side, the two coaches saw Embiid, who was usually very excited, were a little silent now, looked at each other, and knew that now was their own chance.

"Joel, sometimes you have to trust your teammates. In the first half, Lin made 5 pick-and-rolls for the ball holder in the high position and 7 pick-and-rolls without the ball. Comparing your numbers, you should understand what the biggest gap is between you and him?"

"JJ is a very good shooter in our team. Robert Covington and Dario Salic have equally excellent three-pointers. You just need to do a pick-and-roll outside and play a few more positions, which is your best offensive method."

They had long wanted to change the problem of Embiid's preference for going to the low post after halftime. Unfortunately, not many people in the previous game caused trouble for Embiid on the defensive end. When Lin Sen gave Embiid class hard, it was undoubtedly the best opportunity to say it out again.

At the same time, Simmons was naturally also taught. As the team's outside core, his three-point ability has long been criticized, but similarly, I can get 17 points with counterattacks and breakthroughs. Why do I work so hard to practice three-pointers?
