Small forward Danny Granger, power forward David West and point guard promised that the three main players of the Indiana Pacers would walk onto the court side by side, which attracted the attention of many media reporters , On the sidelines of the court, countless photographers hurriedly pressed the shutter of their cameras to record this moment.

"Danny Granger, David West and the promise of the three Indiana Pacers players are regarded by many people as the three core players in the current team. The simultaneous appearance of the three of them will naturally attract people. The eyes of the fans." On-site commentator and Indiana Pacers star Reggie Miller said, "The appearance of these three players is likely to indicate that the Indiana Pacers will compete with the visiting team Boston Celtics. The final battle is on!"

"If Xu Nuo is also one of the three core players, then I am already the team's No. [-] or even No. [-] player." Center Roy Hee, who is still sitting on the bench for the Indiana Pacers Burt said to himself, and the Spaniard Rudy Fernandez, who was sitting next to Roy Hibbert, heard Roy Hibbert talking to himself, and shrugged noncommittally.

On the other end of the court, Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers also began to deploy troops, center Kevin Garnett, small forward Paul Pierce and point guard Rajon Rondo. The three main players also returned to the court at the same time. "The substitution adjustments of the two teams on the court are amazingly consistent. They both replaced a main insider, a small forward and a point guard at the same time!" On-site commentator Reggie Miller was a little surprised He said, "It seems that the problems of the two teams are very similar!"

"However, the crux of the problem is that the final battle of this game seems to have really come!" Xu Nuo said to himself.

With the on-duty referee Derek Stamford blowing his whistle, promising to take the ball from OJ Mayo, the game restarted.

"We must score this goal to curb their counterattack momentum!" Xu Nuo raised a finger and said loudly to his teammates.

"But now is our moment!" Rajon Rondo said.

Xu Nuo looked at Rajon Rondo, a cold smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Is this really the case?" Xu Nuo said to Rajon Rondo.

Before Xu Nuo's voice landed, and before Rajon Rondo made any response, Xu Nuo had already passed the ball in his hand.Rajon Rondo looked back hastily and saw the ball hit the ground and landed unmistakably in the hands of Indiana Pacers power forward David West.At this time, only one player of the Boston Celtics, Kevin Garnett, was protecting the basket. As a result, David West shot and scored under the defense of Kevin Garnett. Defensive foul by Kevin Garnett.

"How can the basket of the Boston Celtics be so empty?" Live commentator Reggie Miller asked in surprise.

And the answer to this question is exactly what Rajon Rondo wants to know.

The Boston Celtics' basket was so empty simply because the Indiana Pacers spread out the Boston Celtics' defense.Danny Granger, OJ Mayo, and Promise with the ball all stood outside the three-point line, and the Boston Celtics had to send players to defend; while center Tyler Hansbrough stood in the paint outside.Always ready to hit mid-range shots, Brandon Bass had to defend as well.As a result, the basket of the Boston Celtics is naturally empty.

"What a horrible guy!" Rajon Rondo cursed in a low voice.

David West went to the free throw line and made a steady extra free throw. The Indiana Pacers at home once again led the away Boston Celtics by [-] points, and the point difference returned to double digits.

"Give me the ball on offense and let me hit them back!" Paul Pierce said to Rajon Rondo.

So, when Paul Pierce used Kevin Garnett's block to get rid of the defense, Rajon Rondo immediately passed the ball to Paul Pierce.Facing Danny Granger, Paul Pierce took two dribbles and pulled up for a fadeaway jump shot. The ball hit the edge of the rim with a thud and bounced high.

"Rebound!" Xu Nuo and Rajon Rondo yelled at the same time.

However, just as David West was about to jump for a rebound, a bright green suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and at the same time, the surrounding lights seemed to dim.

"It's Kevin Garnett!" exclaimed live commentator Reggie Miller.

The 36-year-old Kevin Garnett leaped as high as he did when he was young, grabbed a rebound from the air, and then smashed the ball into the basket hard!

"Can you believe that Kevin Garnett can still make such a dunk?" Looks like [-] years younger! Kevin Garnett hits back at those who said he was old with his outstanding performance!"

Xu Nuo glanced at Reggie Miller sitting on the sidelines, "Although I didn't mean to offend my predecessors, you did say the same thing about Kevin Garnett being old before the game started." Xu Nuo felt a little funny Said so.

On the Indiana Pacers bench, the head coach turned his head and glanced at center Roy Hibbert who was still sitting on the bench, "Roy, you are ready to play!" Coach Larry Brown said, "I think we should strengthen our rebound protection!"

So, when Xu Nuo walked to the free throw line, Roy Hibbert took off his sports jacket and came to the technical stage to get ready to play.Promise made two free throws, and then the buzzer sounded in the Conseco Arena, Roy Hibbert walked on the court, and Tyler Hansbrough, who played center as a power forward, returned to the bench. at the table.

After Roy Hibbert played, Boston Celtics coach Doug Rivers also requested a substitution. Ray Allen, one of the Big Three, replaced Michael Pietrus. The Big Four of the Celtics are on the court at the same time.

"The two teams almost sent all their main players on the field, and there are still six and a half minutes before the end of the game. The game has come to the final stage!" said the on-site commentator Reggie Miller.

Paul Pierce, who was not feeling very good throughout the game, hit a long three-pointer from the outside in the next attack, helping the Boston Celtics finally narrow the point difference to single digits again.Coach Larry Brown on the sidelines looked at Paul Pierce's game statistics. As the ace small forward of the Boston Celtics, Paul Pierce made only three of eleven shots in the game, including one of four three-pointers. , made four of six free throws and scored only eleven points.

"Paul Pierce's shooting percentage is really bad today. Maybe we can let Paul Pierce shoot from the outside. If Paul Pierce still fails to find his shooting touch, consecutive missed shots will hurt his shooting confidence!" La Coach Lee Brown thought to himself.Immediately afterwards, coach Larry Brown communicated his instructions to the point guard Xu Nuo on the court.

Although the Indiana Pacers missed a mid-range shot in the positional battle, Paul Pierce's outside three-pointer in the fast break also missed the basket.Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert jumped high and grabbed the defensive rebound, but the Indiana Pacers played a quick counterattack instead.Promise chose to pass the ball under the defense of Kevin Garnett. OJ Mayo made an easy layup after receiving the pass from Promise. The Indiana Pacers once again led the Boston Celtics with a score of 77:67. digits.

Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers frowned, only getting up to ask for a timeout.

"It's less than 5 minutes from the end of the game. In theory, the Boston Celtics still have a chance to reverse the game." On-site commentator Reggie Miller said, "However, judging from the scene, The Boston Celtics are going to have a hard time winning this game tonight!"

However, despite this, the players of the Boston Celtics still did not give up the game, and they will not give up the game.Although they are still ten points behind the Indiana Pacers, they still have to make a final effort in less than 5 minutes!

"We're not letting you guys win!" Promise told Rajon Rondo after the restart.

After returning from the timeout, the Boston Celtics began to concentrate the ball in the hands of Paul Pierce, and because his shooting touch was not very good, Paul Pierce did not shoot from the outside, but broke through to the basket of the Indiana Pacers cause damage.Paul Pierce goes to the free throw line after a defensive foul by Roy Hibbert.

"Even if you hit two free throws, it's useless, we are still the ones who have the initiative in the game!" Xu Nuo thought in his heart.

Amid the tsunami of noise from fans behind the basketball hoop, Paul Pierce made two free throws. At 69:77, the Boston Celtics are still eight points behind the Indiana Pacers.Still, the Boston Celtics still have a chance.Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers stood up and called for a 20-second timeout.

"Guys, it's less than 4 minutes from the end of the game, and this is our last chance!" Coach Doug Rivers said loudly, "We have never conceded to our opponents, and we still can't admit defeat now." ! We still have a chance to win this game!"

Encouraged by coach Doc Rivers, the Boston Celtics returned to the court for a last-ditch effort.
