The Spurs are in crisis, not only in the Western Conference semifinals, but their team image has also been greatly challenged.

Ray Allen's heartfelt words at the press conference won the sympathy of most fans, and also caused the Spurs to be criticized by many fans and media.

Invisibly, Wayne's image was whitewashed a lot...

Not because people believe he didn't mean it, but...

As long as someone darker than you appears and you happen to be able to deal with him, you are a good person!

The enemy of the bad guy... is not the good guy!

Nothing wrong.

Is Batman a good guy? Strictly speaking, he is also an outlaw. At most, he is an outlaw with great abilities.

But because he fought the bad guys, he became a hero.

"What the hell..." Wayne looked at people's criticism of the Spurs in the newspaper and said that he suffered a cultural loss.

I said before that I didn't do it on purpose, but everyone didn't believe it. It turned out that I was in the wrong direction!

Look at Ray Allen. He didn't bother with the question of whether it was intentional or not, but directly blamed the Spurs.

When the Spurs become darker than Wayne, it won't matter whether Wayne kicked Brown on purpose or not.

Look at this dense thinking, perfect logic, and rigorous planning.

You still have to study hard!

It seems that if I really want to improve my work in the future, I will have to learn from Brother Allen.

This brother Allen is not talking about you, Tony, stop trying to gain your presence.

Tony: We had sex with someone when we lived together...

On May 17, Game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Pistons and the Pacers returned to Bankers Life Arena.

Today, Pacers fans turned out en masse, and the price of game tickets was so high.

It is said that someone was willing to pay $20,000 for a front-row ticket, but was unsuccessful.

You know, this is not Los Angeles or Boston.

A ticket worth US$20,000 is quite an exaggeration in this land of corn.

Those fans who are unable to enter will gather in the square outside the Bankers Life Arena and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals with the Pacers through the big screen outside the square!

The basketball atmosphere in Indianapolis is already very strong, not to mention that the Pacers may eliminate their old rival Pistons today.

In Barkley's words: "No Indianapolisian will miss this game, and nothing will make Indianapolis people happier than knocking out the Pistons."

After squeezing the resentment for a whole year, it's finally time to settle the accounts.

Can the fans not be excited?

Although even if they lose this fifth game, the Pacers still have a great chance of winning the series.

But no one wants to wait any longer, no one wants to see those guys in blue jerseys jumping around Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

Game 5 must be the death of the Pistons!

In the locker room, Rick Carlisle told the players the same thing.

"There is no next game, we are not going to Detroit!

Tonight, right here, in front of our fans, send those sons of bitches home!"

"Yeah!" Carlisle yelled, and everyone yelled in agreement.

It's like a morale-boosting general and a group of soldiers going to the battlefield to fight.

Wayne was also very excited today. Everyone is responsible for eliminating the Pistons!

Everyone rushed to the court with enthusiasm. Today, the DJ on site also arranged a special introduction ceremony for the starting players.

When Wayne played, the Batman logo spotlight used in the All-Star Game reappeared at Bankers Life Arena.

It's very atmospheric.

Well, now Wayne's character of punishing evil and promoting good is finally established.

Although Wayne's actions are not in compliance with the league's regulations, fighting violence with violence is exactly what Batman does!

And Popovich is the villain of The Penguin.

Batman vs. The Penguin, if it really comes to fruition, Stern will smile crookedly.

Because everyone really wants to see the Pacers and Spurs meet in the finals, so today, many neutral fans also support the Pacers very much!

From Miller VS Jordan to now, the Pacers have always played the role of a villain.

But this year, the Pacers have really started to become popular.

After the lively starting introduction ceremony, players from both sides took their places.

Today, neither group of people hugged each other or even shook hands.

In this win-or-go-home battle, both teams come with a life-threatening mentality.

The Pacers don't want to let the Pistons continue to breathe, and the defending champion doesn't want to lose to their old enemy.

One thing to say, when most teams encounter a score like 1 to 3, they probably give up.

But the Pistons didn't. The grudge between them and the Pacers and the temperament of this team determined that they would not admit defeat until they were killed.

Larry Brown still sat on the sidelines wearing a neck brace, but no one cheered for him at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

On the contrary, many people are mocking him as an actor and a clown.

Larry Brown is no longer a human being, both inside and outside the team. He is spurned both inside and outside the team.

Wayne's kick looks more and more like the kick of justice.

After the game officially started, O'Neal Jr. won the first offensive ball for the Pacers.

In the first attack, Wayne was double-teamed as soon as he came up with the ball.

So Wayne handed the ball to O'Brien as always.

Ben quickly returned to the penalty area to defend, and Xiao Ao passed the ball to Wu Sheng.

Richard couldn't run away. Hamilton spared no effort to make up for it immediately and abruptly wiped out the shooting opportunity.

From this first round, we can see the Pistons' desire for victory today.

In the end, Artest's breakthrough attack was blocked, and the Pacers missed the first attack.

But everyone is not worried, because it is not easy for the Pistons to break through the Pacers' defense.

Sure enough, just 20 seconds later, Wayne responded.

"The bat flew out! Wayne actively defended and blocked Tyshaun Prince's jumper from outside the three-point line! Both teams ran very hard, and neither of them wanted to fall here!"

Cole looked so excited. In the last game, Carlisle's sudden formation change caught the Pistons off guard.

Many people think that the Pacers are being opportunistic and will be able to deal with it when the Pistons are ready.

But in fact, the Pistons had a full 48 minutes to deal with this change in the last game, but what did they do?

The fact is that the Pacers are really stronger than the Pistons this season.

They are more united than last season and have more Wayne, Wu Sheng and Payton than last season.

Today, the Pacers will definitely not let the Pistons stage a desperate counterattack!

Wayne's block was just a warning.

Tell the Pistons: "No matter how much trouble you make, I will always cover your head."

After Wayne finished blocking the shot, he whispered to the little prince, "Don't try again."

Well, in the Eastern Conference finals last season, the little prince became famous in one battle and shined in the finals.

But now, the spotlight is not on you.

It’s time for another new talent to shine!

The whole audience cheered again. You can’t watch a basketball game without Wayne’s trash talk, otherwise you’ll cough!

Sure enough, the subsequent game was very intense, although the two sides fought back and forth.

But the piston was always pushed down.

They worked really hard and played very hard on both offense and defense.

Falling to the ground to save the ball again and again, physical fights again and again, quarrels again and again...the game went on very anxiously.

But the 5-7 point difference has always been hanging over the head of the piston, insurmountable.

The game was so anxious until the last minute. At this time, the two sides were tied at 85 to 82, and the Pistons were 3 points behind.

Since both sides defended very tightly today, the score was not very high.

"The defending champion still has one minute to save this season!" Cole's palms were all sweaty. This fifth battle of life and death did not disappoint everyone!
