When George threw the ball in, the second quarter ended.

This was a buzzer goal, which caused the home fans to scream in excitement and loudly cheer George.

"Go ahead."

"Well, leading at halftime, this buzzer goal is great."

This goal helped the Pacers rewrite the score to 52:51, leading by 1 point.

At the same time, George's personal scoring has also become 19 points. He scored 19 points in the half. The performance can be said to be very good. So far, his 19 points are the highest score in the game.

In the 76ers locker room during the intermission.

Coach Luke frowned. Today’s game is indeed not easy to win. The back-to-back game is a test of the players’ physical fitness. At the same time, it is an away game. In addition, the players all want to break the record of winning streak in team history. In this way, the greater the psychological pressure.

More than that, there is also the oppressive defense of the Pacers, the crazy consumption of the physical energy of the 76ers, and the outstanding performance of George...

The combination of various factors caused the 76ers, which should have the advantage, to fall behind by one point at halftime.

And it was the second half that gave coach Luke a headache.

The physical problems of the players in the second half will definitely become more prominent, the offensive efficiency will drop, and the hit rate will also drop. As the game progresses and the game time passes, if the lead cannot be regained, the psychological pressure on the players will be even greater... .. It may even form a chain reaction.

"coach."

A voice sounded, Coach Luke turned his head, seeing Qin Hao, he barely smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Qin Hao said: "Coach, I hope I will defend George in the second half."

"Oh?" Coach Luke raised his brows and thought about it carefully. It seems that every time Qin Hao and George face each other when Qin Hao and George face each other, Qin Hao has the upper hand. His eyes suddenly brightened, "Well, I I think it's feasible. It's just that your physical stamina..."

Today, due to various factors, especially physical reasons, the players on the 76ers are in a relatively average state, including Butler, who has been performing well before.

Therefore, Coach Luke hopes that Qin Hao will focus his energy and stamina on offense and avoid spending it on defense, because as the game progresses, the stamina will further decline, and the efficiency of other people's scoring will become lower and lower. At that time, he will have to rely on Qin Hao. Go to score.

If Qin Hao went to defend against George, he would definitely consume more physical energy.

"It's okay." Qin Hao said with a smile: "Don't worry, Jimmy and the others were mainly attacking in the previous games, and my consumption is actually not big."

"This... OK." Coach Luke nodded.

If Qin Hao can restrain George well, the effect will be great.

......

The intermission is over.

Both sides returned to the court, both on the starting lineup, but coach Vogel frowned soon, because it was no longer Butler who was facing George, but Qin Hao.

On the court.

Seeing Qin Hao defending himself, George's face changed slightly, and his heart abruptly. He was a little embarrassed for no reason. He said uncomfortably, "Why do you change you to defend me? Butler, is he scared?"

Qin Hao smiled and said, "But why do I sound like you are in a guilty conscience? Isn't it because you are afraid of me?"

"How is it possible." George sneered.

"Haha." Qin Hao showed eight teeth, "Don't worry, what is our relationship, I will be very gentle with you."

Why does this sound so wrong?

George felt a bitter cold all over, and he simply closed his mouth. He couldn't beat Qin Hao, but he seemed to be unable to beat Qin Hao in other ways.

Gan, can you change individuals?

Whoosh!

Hill passed the ball to George. George glanced at the timer. There were less than ten seconds left. He made a gesture. Hibbert came up for the pick-and-roll. George quickly got rid of it. He speeded up and hugged the ball. Inside.

But when he jumped up to prepare for a layup, his heart trembled suddenly, feeling dangerous, and subconsciously speeded up his shot.

Snapped!

One hand slapped the backboard.

George's face changed, he knew that this was Qin Hao without turning his head.

This was indeed Qin Hao. Although George caught the pick-and-roll and got rid of it, Qin Hao's speed was much faster than Butler. He chased him quickly and almost gave George a chase. However, Qin Hao still interfered with George and failed to score the ball.

"I knew..." George shook his head, very depressed.

He really doesn't want to confront Qin Hao. Qin Hao is fast, bounces well, and has height. The key is that he is too cunning.

The 76ers got the rebound and started to counterattack.

Qin Hao came to the front court, but did not rush to attack. Instead, he looked at George with a bright smile. George twitched his face, turned his head, and muttered silently: "You must break your friendship."

"Pick and roll."

Qin Hao made a gesture, Nene came up for a pick-and-roll, Qin Hao moved to the side, forming a change of defense, and the person defending him became Hibbert.

This is what Qin Hao wants.

If there is no Hibbert on the inside, it will be much easier to play, and Hibbert has already carried a technical foul on his back, and there are two ordinary fouls. Who will be named if he is not named?

Qin Hao first changed direction continuously, and then suddenly accelerated, and instantly passed most of Hibbert's position. Hibbert quickly turned around and prepared to pursue it. But at this time Qin Hao pulled the ball back again, and Hibbert subconsciously wanted to adjust his footsteps. As a result, he slipped and fell directly to the ground.

"this......"

In the auditorium, the fans were dumbfounded.

Good guy, this is knocking people down.

Qin Hao stopped and glanced at Hibbert with contempt in his eyes, then jumped up, his wrist flicked, and the basketball made an arc and made a steady hit.

"Asshole." Hibbert became angry, getting up to fight Qin Hao, but George hugged him and dragged him back.

"Hey, George, do all the trouble." Qin Hao shook his head, a little regretful, and almost got Hibbert down.

pity......

Although Hibbert was dragged in time and did not commit a foul, his emotions have been affected. He soon got another foul and was replaced by coach Vogel.

Hibbert is gone, and the Pacers’ inside advantage is gone. Although there are Ian Mahinmi and Miles Plumlee on the bench, they are completely incomparable with Hibbert, and Mahinmi also Even at the level of 5 points per game, Plumley is still a rookie.

Moreover, after Qin Hao took charge of defending George, George's performance was greatly restricted. He was not comfortable with Qin Hao, his state was no longer hot, and his hand felt cold.

At this moment, George made 1 of 3 shots and Hibbert was replaced again. The Pacers' offense has stalled, while the 76ers are in full swing.

Before the end of the first half, the Pacers were still leading by 1 point. Only a few minutes later, the 76ers had overtaken the score, leading the Pacers by 7 points.
