Chapter four hundred and seventy-fifth: veteran will never wither

After Vikins broke two inside, he forced Oladipo to let go of the distance, but he was immediately punished by Wikins on the opposite side with his height and made a precise shot outside the three-point line.

The Timberwolves' three-pointers were not accurate. Butler was originally one of the Bulls' three-rejection refusals. In the first round of the regular season and playoffs last year, he almost cried. This is because his three-pointers are purely a draw, with few moves and not too accurate. At most, he won't let you go. Do you want to shoot with it? No problem.

Gibson is just a player who has no three-point ability. He is probably not interested in the opponent's eyes when standing outside, so the Pacers' contraction in the inside is not much different from the Timberwolves at the beginning.

As a result, the Pacers used their three-pointers to punish the opponent's Timberwolves' defense. At this time, the Timberwolves also encountered the same problem. Wiggins just now threw away the wolfberry cup and turned into Superman and scored a few points in a row. But at this time, Lin Sen was completely prepared.

Oladipo's relaxation also gave Wiggins the best chance. This three-point hit has officially returned the score difference between the two teams to a normal score of 5 points.

Last season, although the Timberwolves did not enter the playoffs, Wiggins performed very well in the first half of the season. Especially on the outside, the All-Stars had a 43% three-point shooting percentage, which was very good. In the first half, the three-point shooting percentage was even ahead of George and Durant.

However, in the second half, Wiggins' condition declined and began his life as a thermos paddling. Now this three-pointer hit seems to have regained the feeling of the beginning.

"Keep the height, we have to keep the height!" McMillan quickly shouted a timeout. At this point in time, the Pacers must replace a player who can match the height.

CJ Myers is not low in height. Last year, he became a defensive gate for the Pacers on the outside because he has a height of 198cm, a good wingspan and a positive attitude. Now when the defensive height on the outside is not enough, he is also in danger again.

CJ Myers' effect at the beginning was really good after playing. He didn't suffer too much in the height of the outside line. The more reason is that CJ Myers' defense in some aspects is smarter than Oladipo.

Oladipo is definitely not inferior in defense awareness and skills, but in small moves, CJ Myers, an old fry who has been in the league for 10 years, is definitely experienced. He has reached the peak of his career. This year, it can be said that he was the best time to win a big contract. He just won the championship as a starting player and was still at the tail of his peak career. He has a stable three-pointer and defense, a level of empty cutting ability and a no-ball playing style. These are all traits that the champion team needs very much. The price he stayed with the Pacers is not high. Obviously, he was left by Pacers fans, which is already a friendly price.

If you stay in the Pacers, you have to play as a substitute and you have very little playing time. The double-gun combination composed of Gordon and Oladipo must be the starter. There are also players like Bogdanovic and Collison. This season, the average playing time is only about 10 minutes, but in these 10 minutes, CJ Myers' performance has always been online.

Before, when the double-back was abnormal, his playing time increased to nearly 20 minutes, but it did not affect his performance on the court at all. The three-pointers were still stable and the defense was still efficient.

Wiggins on the outside was very annoyed and wanted to speed up, but CJ Myers' defense did not give him the chance to accelerate and attack. He could no longer rush at the middle distance, so he forced his arms to hit the iron.

"What again Andrew wants to do? Why doesn't he rush over?" Garnett was a little confused about why Andrew Wiggins retreated when the final impact was finally impacted.

As for this point, the old commentator, such an old coach, was more clear about Wiggins, and behind him, Lin Sen's assisting defense was already in place. Wiggins, who had no impact, would not have the personal dunk like the beginning, and would be waiting for Lin Sen's big hat.

The Pacers urgently need to use a goal to retain the decline at this time. Lin Sen's singles in the penalty area attracted a pincer attack, and then passed it directly from the penalty area to CJ Myers at the bottom corner three-point line.

He has already performed on the defensive end just now. This three-pointer on the offensive end was also a 100-step run and hit directly. CJ Myers just came on the court and felt very hot.

"This is the role of the veteran. Victor is definitely the absolute main force of the Pacers in defenders most of the time. But at some times, CJ Myers may play a better role." McHale agrees with CJ Myers' outstanding performance in these few minutes.

Every locker room needs some veterans to take charge, and among the Pacers, the oldest one now is a player like CJ Myers. This year, CJ Myers continues to stay. Even if the Pacers have a player who has been here for several years, it seems that he is the player who has been with the Pacers for the longest time.

The veteran will never die! CJ Myers is still contributing his spare time to this Pacers, the number one in the league.

"It seems that I really don't need to play now!" Lin Sen smiled and looked at CJ Miles who performed perfectly. The familiar feeling was back. Oladipo's height was not easy to defend against Wiggins, but there was no problem with defending Teague, which also meant that another Timberwolves' engine was also shut down.

The Timberwolves' counterattack was suppressed by a substitute rotation by the Pacers. Lin Sen also began to continue to provide threats and passes at mid-range, which could obviously suppress Towns in the head-on battle in the first half.

Especially overall, Lin Sen can better drive the Pacers to move forward, while Towns often feeds him cakes. In the first half, the Timberwolves' offensive rhythm was more often the two men who were Wiggins and Butler moving forward.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the opponent being the Pacers. Lin Sen's deterrence in the penalty area and his defense against Towns have always been online, which means that the weak inside line that Towns faced most of the time has become the best defensive player tonight.
