Chapter 307
In the next two away games, Philadelphia strode forward and won directly, especially in the third game, which was 114-86 and the opponent scored 28 points!
In the end, Philadelphia won the series with a record of 4-2.
In the six games of the second round, Rayong averaged 24.3 points, 10.6 assists, 8.9 rebounds and 3.2 blocks in 37 minutes per game, which is a series against the Pistons' defense.
On the other side, Hamilton also averaged 19.7 points, 4.1 assists and 4.2 rebounds per game.
Rasheed Wallace averaged 18.6 points and 11.4 rebounds in 39 minutes per game in six games, and his ability to respond on the line is also amazing.
The Pistons stopped in the second round, while the Pacers on the other side slashed the Nets cleanly 4-1, which will be waiting for the defending champions.
It's really ironic that Carlisle came to the Indiana Pacers and immediately led the team to the Eastern Conference finals, while Larry Brown stopped in the second round, and Rick Carlisle slapped the Detroit Pistons management in the face with practical power.
And this season's Indiana Pacers are not only on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end.
Among them, the growth of small forward Artest has become a big surprise for the team, and his average of 21.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game in the playoffs is eye-catching.
And Jermaine O'Neal once again averaged 35 plus 15 per game in the playoffs, and the dazzling offensive means made Kenyon Martin on the opposite side doubtful.
And Jonathan Bender and Al Harrington on the bench are even more masters of the mess, and this Pacers team is very strong.
The outside world believes that compared to the Detroit Pistons, they are the biggest obstacle on the road to the 76ers' title defense.
The old bird Reggie Miller even released cruel words before the game: I will personally keep an eye on the 2.06 tall guy, I will let him know what the real intensity is, maybe I will not put pressure on him all the time, but once it comes to the most critical fourth quarter, he will not want to rush into our penalty area.
This much-anticipated East Final also invited the combination of Red Giant Bill Wharton and Moses Malone to conduct live commentary, and the lineup was very luxurious.
Moses Malone: Bill, look at that kid in Indiana, how well he's playing, he's turned 25 this year?
Bill Wharton: Ahem, leaving Portland was the right thing he did, in Portland Rashid Wallace was ahead of him, Brian Grant was ahead of him, he was only twelve or thirteen minutes a game, what could he do?
Moses Malone: Yes, in Indiana he can shoot unscrupulously and play happily.
Now Jermaine O'Neal has averaged two double-doubles per game for two consecutive years, and is the undisputed Eastern Conference All-Star starting lineup, and this season Rick Carlisle has given him more free offensive rights and has become more and more stable.
The Wajovia Center is full again.
Let's take a look at the starting lineups on both sides, Away Indiana Pacers
: PG: Jamal TinsleySG
: Reggie Miller
SF: Ron Artest
PF: Jermaine O'Neal
C:
Jeff Foster
The home team's Philadelphia 76ers starting lineup is as follows
: PG: Allen Iverson
SG: Raja Bale
SF: Rayong
PF: Keith Van Horn
C:
Brandon
Haywood
Moses Malone: We have to pay attention to it, the home team is still using Brandon Haywood on the inside, and Daco Milicic didn't start tonight.
Bill Wharton: Mainly consider the technical characteristics of Jeff Foster on the opposite side, after all, Brandon Haywood is still very experienced in interior confrontation.
With the referee's whistle, the two sides began to jump the ball.
The ball was flipped in the direction of Jamal Tinsley, who quickly dribbled to the three-point line and landed a spin to find Foster, who was already stuck in position.
Foster turned around and was about to make a move, but Heywood was big after all, and he ruined the opponent's shot.
The ball goes out of bounds, the away team has the ball.
The Pacers' first offense still chose to start from the inside and see which direction the baseline ball would go this time.
Old bird Reggie Miller reaches for the ball from the outside.
O gave the ball away, and Miller quickly got it back into Ow's hands, who shot straight into Van Horn's defensive mid-range.
2 to 0
The Pacers, who play on the road, are the first to go to the next city.
It's very crisp.
The tactics are also very clear, and the little Ooneche, who serves the sideline ball, takes a step to receive the return pass from his teammates and shoots directly, which is a very clear and smooth cooperation.
Philadelphia's first offense was also in the hands of Van Horn, who was mentioned to the line.
Jermaine O'Neal immediately lifted it up and pushed the opponent from behind.
Van Horn shook his shoulders twice and then turned and missed.
It's still a bit of a hurry, I should add one more step, cut in or take a step to the side.
The rebound was picked up by Foster, and Tinsley dribbled through half court and immediately put the ball in the hands of Reggie Miller on the right.
Miller glanced at Ragabel at his side, took two steps to the left and then shot straight away.
Moses Malone: After so many years, Reggie's
habit hasn't changed, his three points are not the same as the average fixed-point three, and this guy has to add a process of getting rid of it, which is really difficult.
Bill Wharton: It's been more than a decade, and this is his 16th year, averaging 28 minutes per game in the regular season this season, but 35 minutes in the first two rounds of the playoffs.
The coach still values him very much, and he can still play 35 minutes at the age of 36.
Moses Malone: Oh, my brother is talking a lot now, and he doesn't stumble anymore! Bill
Wharton: Get out
!! Actually, Bill Wharton also stutters now, that is, when he is commenting on his son's game, and at other times he basically overcomes the problem of stuttering!
The Pacers scored 5 points in a row after the opening game, and they played very actively.
Philadelphia's answer dribbled past half court, glanced around and gently passed it to Ragabel at his side.
Bale paused for a moment to find Van Horn on the inside.
Van Horn shook his shoulders twice and quickly passed back the answer to Neche.
Answer: Catch the ball and close the ball directly in one step, and make a super difficult shot with a leaning body.
It's very light.
This ball Jamal Tinsley has been defended in place, but he just can't prevent it, he really can't prevent it.
