Chapter 492: The speed of recovery of stamina

"Okay, don't be depressed. We played well in the first half until now. I was ready to fall behind by 15 points before turning the tables. Now it seems that our behind score is far better than I thought." McMillan looked at the Pacers with a smile.

The Pacers' main players did not play much in the first half. Garlinari played the longest, playing the first and second quarters. After that, Lin Sen had played the longest for only 12 minutes, which was not comparable to Lin Sen who usually played for 20 minutes in the first half, Gordon 11 minutes, Oladipo 9 minutes, and Grant 9 minutes.

This is completely different from the original team's main players' playing time. In the past, the Pacers had more time to play, and then try to make it into garbage time as quickly as possible. Even if their second lineup is the league's first, it is not as strong as the Pacers' main players.

However, tonight, this second lineup gave the main players enough time. McMillan did not formulate tactics based on the opponent's lineup in this game. In his opinion, the main players who have recovered have the ability to recover the remaining scores in the normal game rhythm.

Back on the court, Harden on the Rockets' side was still there. Harden is not an iron man, and his physical strength is even one of the factors that restrict him from becoming stronger. At this time, he had to go off the court to rest, and at the beginning of the second half, the person who took the Rockets to play was Paul.

Paul and Harden lead the Rockets forward in different ways. Paul relies more on passing. He is already 34 years old. It is impossible for him to easily cut 2o like he wants to be young. In addition, he is originally a point guard who passes first.

However, this style has never been a style that Pacers fear. Paul's passes are stable and efficient, with few mistakes, but he does not have that kind of top penetration. Most of his passes are opportunities for tactics and running positions themselves, and it is not as unexpected as Nash.

The Pacers' defense likes such a team very much because their defense has traces to follow. In the second half, except for Garlinari sitting off the court and replaced by Sadies Young, the Pacers' main players played, and the defense of this lineup is extremely strong.

No matter who Paul passed it to, it was difficult for him to complete the open shot. The Pacers' defense was always able to make up for the position at the first time. This is what the Pacers have always emphasized on the defensive end. Ariza's two consecutive opportunities were thrown into Lin Sen's face.

He was once a hero of the Lakers' championship in 2009. Defensive and three-pointers have always been his ability to get middle-class contracts with all teams. But this time, every opportunity appears, Lin Sen appears in front of him. Faced with the interference of the best defensive player, Ariza missed the first goal, and the second goal simply made a three-no-touch goal.

"Trey has played in the finals after all! He also scored key goals in the finals. Now, you can shoot such a ball at this time, which is a bit disappointing to Rockets fans." McHale shook his head, not very satisfied with Ariza's two consecutive shots, which were completely different from his own rhythm.

But what he was even more curious about was Lin Sen's defense level: "Why is Lin running so fast now? In the first half, he clearly felt that Lin could not take into account both offense and defense. Now this round of defensive and restoring defense has made me feel once again what is the best defensive player's ability."

Rachel smiled: "Maybe he has recovered his strength faster!"

McHale frowned, hey hey! This is a national live broadcast, driving is prohibited.

The Permanent Motion Machine's skill is really useful. The key to this quarter will be in the third quarter, and it is definitely not possible to widen the score difference at this time. After Lin Sen activated this skill, he continued to make up for defense in the second half, so the Rockets' allocation was not effective, and the offensive end was also full of lethality.

Most of the passes were passed in the first half, with only 5 points, 7 assists, 9 rebounds and 2 blocks in the first half. This is the first time that Lin Sen only scored 5 points in the first half. One thing is that the Rockets focused on Lin Sen's defense, and the other is because of his original physical strength and style of playing in the first half.

Now that Lin Sen has the energy, he naturally wants to change his playing style. After all, this will not disappoint Rachel, who has been hitting him in the first half and halftime break.

He made three fouls in the first half and had to go back at this time. The first ball was a strong breakthrough on the outside. The Rockets obviously did not expect Lin Sen to play like this. Every time Lin Sen hit the penalty area without the ball, the double-teamed team did not appear at this time.

Lin Sen's playing style this round is a bit different from his usual ones. His absoluteness is not much ahead of Capela. Such an impact does not get rid of the position, there is no use of footsteps, and there is no emergency stopping. However, at the edge of the penalty area, Lin Sen ran down and hit the board, and also caused Capela, who had been following him and did not dodge, which was considered to return the foul that Harden caused at the beginning.

"It's so difficult! Lin's goal is so difficult. I really suspect that he relied on dribbling to score the ball in this ball." McHale shook his head, unable to believe the scene in front of him.

This made Rachel curious. As the second in command of the Celtics who won the three championships in the 80s and two championships, McHale's personal abilities are naturally not bad. His bounce and average, but when he reached a low post, he was one of the most difficult players to defend. One of the reasons is his excellent feel and various shooting angles.

“Isn’t this what you are best at?”

"No, no, no! If it is at a low position, this will be my regular scoring method, but if this degree is impacted by this distance, it may be difficult for even Tiangou to ensure a high hit rate."

Lin Sen's goal was looking for a hook position in the air and finding the angle of the hand. He knew that this ball had a certain degree of luck, but he was also trying this, not just the impact at the middle distance. In the first half, the Rockets hit Lin Sen at the middle distance to limit Lin Sen's personal score. This was done very well, so the impact was a little deeper! The Rockets' outside line would definitely not double-team too deep in order to be able to return to defense. Lin Sen's dribble at the middle distance and then rushed further into a deeper position to score was Lin Sen's new choice, but he didn't expect to score the first ball.

Lin Sen, who had recovered his strength, began to dominate both ends of the offense and defense. From time to time, he looked at Harden sitting on the bench. Brother, can you still sit down?
