After the jump ball, the Bobcats got the ball. Anderson dribbled the ball across the half court and made a steady gesture, indicating for everyone not to be too anxious and to stabilize the rhythm.
Although Anderson was not the best point guard, he was definitely very experienced. He knew that everyone was a little anxious and had to stabilize themselves first. Otherwise, the more anxious they were, the more chaotic it would be.
After about ten seconds of attack time, Anderson and Walker began to pull the ball from the outside and finally passed it to Michael, who ran out of the empty space, for a mid-range shot.
"Nice shot!" Han Zhe and everyone on the substitutes 'bench stood up, waved their towels, and cheered loudly. It was a morale boost to succeed on the first attack.
The fans in the stadium also burst into cheers and applause. At the moment, it seemed that their team was in good condition and played well.
However, the other side immediately returned a goal, and it was George's sudden slam dunk that succeeded. This was very demoralizing. The other side scored a much more beautiful goal.
As the game progressed, Dunlap could no longer sit still. He began to stand by the side of the field and give orders loudly because they were already four points behind. The opposing two strikers, West and George, had turned their inside line into a sieve.
"Defense, pay attention to defense. Michael, stick close to George. Josh, follow West closely and don't let him get the ball easily. Mullens, are you a wooden block?”Dunlap spat.
Han Zhe was also getting anxious. Their tactics were too monotonous, and after a few rounds of attacks, the other side clearly realized that Michael was the attacking point. As soon as he took the ball, he was being watched closely. He had already wasted two attacking opportunities.
Glancing at Dunlap, Han Zhe sighed to himself. It seemed that the other party had no intention of replacing him for the time being. He didn't know when he would be able to play, or whether he would be able to play. "Walker, don't vote…Uh..."
Walker saw that he couldn't beat the opponent in the paint at all. When there was a gap in the outside line, he decisively shot a three-pointer and scored the ball, making Dunlap swallow his words halfway.
“Nice!”Han Zhe stood up and smashed the towel on the ground. They had been too frustrated earlier, but now that Walker had scored a three-pointer, everyone was relieved.
Following that, Walker and Anderson completely ignored Dunlap, who was furious on the sidelines. If they had the chance, they would still pass the ball to Michael. However, if they found it difficult to fight Michael, they would directly go one-on-one, completely abandoning Dunlap's tactics.
Tiger Pounce Livestream:
" We saw that the Bobcats were very passive before, but now they have obviously changed their tactics. The two defenders are very active and are close to the score. However, their head coach doesn't seem to be very satisfied. He keeps scolding the players on the field, and the players are indifferent to the head coach. Perhaps the rumors of the Bobcats 'coach and players being on bad terms might be true.
The Bobcats were clearly not executing Dunlap's established tactics, but it had to be said that the previous tactics had been seen through, and the players 'choices now seemed to be correct.”
Water friends:
"This manager is annoying just looking at him. He keeps jumping up and down on the sidelines like a clown. Look at how calm other managers are!”
"How dare he not go up to Han Zhe? I've already blacklisted him!”
" The Bobcats 'previous strategy was indeed a trap. It was to feed the ball to Michael. Even a layman like me could see through it at a glance. Do they think they are stupid? If they keep an eye on Michael, they will be defeated. It's good to play like this.”
"Michael is also a rookie. Why is he the starting lineup and the core of the strategy, while I can only sit on the bench?”
"Michael is the second runner-up, while Han Zhe is the second runner-up. How can they be treated the same?”
" Dunlap is an idiot. His tactics aren't wrong, but the players executing them aren't good. Michael is good, but he's definitely not at the top. If it was a player like Kobe, he would know that the ball would be given to him, but you wouldn't be able to defend even if you knew. Michael obviously can't do that. That's the problem.”
"They're weak to begin with, and the coach and players aren't on good terms. The Bobcats 'prospects are worrying.”
The first quarter ended 17-20, with the Bobcats trailing by three points.
Dunlap's face darkened. He was about to scold the players for not executing his tactical arrangements properly, but he held it back because he realized that there was indeed a problem with his tactics. Michael as the main scoring point would not work at all. He could not even single-handedly take down George, so how could he score?
Although Dunlap was very unhappy, he was just rigid and lacked experience in the NBA. He was not an idiot. He realized that Walker and the others 'current play style was indeed very practical. In addition, he did not want to lose this game, and he could not afford to lose, so he endured it. After giving a few simple instructions with a gloomy face, he let them rest.
After the start of the second quarter, both sides were fighting hard. The score was locked in a stalemate, and neither side could do anything to the other.
Dunlap was a little anxious, but after glancing at the substitutes 'bench, he felt a headache coming on. Han Zhe and Gordon were the only ones on the bench who were more reliable. However, the Bobcats were actually playing very well on the outside. Walker's condition was off the charts, and his field goal percentage was extremely high. He had already scored in double digits. What the Bobcats lacked now was a good inside player, but the team did not have one!
So Dunlap didn't change players, because there was no one to change!
Following that, Anderson also broke out. He did not break out to score, but completed two key steals in a row. With Walker's fiery touch, he scored two goals in a row to tie the score.
However, the Pacers called a time-out and obviously rearranged their tactics. They kept a close eye on Walker and had fewer opportunities to shoot. At the end of the half, the Pacers led by four points again, and the score became 39-43.
The domestic fans were a little anxious. They didn't care whether the Bobcats won or lost. What they cared about was why Han Zhe hadn't played since halftime was over. Could it be that Han Zhe was going to sit on the bench today?
Halfway through the third quarter, Dunlap suddenly called Han Zhe and Gordon to warm up.
Han Zhe and Gordon were both stunned. Today, Walker and Anderson had performed very well. They thought that they might not have the chance to play today. Who knew that Dunlap actually planned to replace them? If the two of them were to play, they would only be able to replace the hot Walker and Anderson. Han Zhe was dumbfounded by this substitution and could only sigh that he really could not guess what was going on.
But of course, Han Zhe was willing. He had waited for this opportunity for a long time. Now, he could finally make an appearance in the NBA. NBA, I, Han Zhe, am here!
