At Conseco Arena, Boss Joe followed Larry Bird and took a seat in the private room on the second floor.

With more than ten minutes left before the game begins, the Conseco Arena is already full.

Indianapolis' sports atmosphere is one of the best in the United States.

The top two high school championships in the U.S., "Crazy Indians", NCAA's headquarters is also in Indianapolis, plus the Pacers and NFC's two-time Super Bowl champion Colts.

According to a survey, in Indianapolis, 61% of adults are fanatical of at least one sporting event.

To be honest, Boss Qiao is envious. How great would it be if such an atmosphere and such attendance be given to Bobcats?

What Boss Qiao doesn't know is that Bird also envies Lao Qiao...

On the court, Li Ke was ready to play. He did not play this game with a brave character, but when he saw Danny Granger in the distance, his eyes became hot.

"It's going to take revenge..."

"No, to be precise, it's not called revenge. It should be to find the venue that was lost during the trial trial."

Li Ke's eyes became hotter and he would only have one opponent in this game.

Just as Li Ke was keeping a close eye on Danny Granger, Danny Granger also noticed Li Ke.

To be honest, he disturbed Li Ke's trial trial and did not take Li Ke seriously afterwards. However, after that one-on-one game, Larry Bird became more concerned about him.

When Li Ke fought against McGrady and the Rockets in Halloween, Danny Granger was a little suspicious. He was very rational and knew very well that he could not achieve that effect.

You know, in the Halloween battle, Li Ke not only scored 47 points, but also defended McGrady everywhere. The Rockets relied on Yao Da to drag the game to the last moment.

At the last moment, Li Ke's back-playing game directly lost suspense.

After that game, Danny Granger also talked to Larry Bird about Li Ke:

"Mr. Bird, I think that Sheldon Lee hid his strength in that one-on-one game."

In response to this, Larry Bird just replied lightly: "Maybe."

Therefore, Danny Granger felt that Li Ke's eyes seemed to be trying to strip him alive and die before the game were strange.

Then the result is clearly what you want, why are you still holding a grudge?

Despite this, Danny Granger was ready for the battle.

"The game is about to begin. In this game, the Bobcats' opponent is the Indiana Pacers. Currently, the Pacers are only one higher than the Bobcats. The two teams are similar opponents, and the Bobcats still have a chance to win."

"If they win another game, they will win six consecutive games."

Yangwu, the competition has not yet begun, the camera completely focuses on Bobcats and Li Ke.

"Just ended the Christmas game for a few days, Li Ke scored 50 points. In the last game, his performance was a bit sluggish. Let's see if he can get back in this game."

Yu Jia found a cutting point, and Director Zhang smiled and shook his head: "It is normal to be a sluggish, just Kobe is like this. After scoring 50 points in the previous game, he can continue to explode in the next game."

Good guy, in one sentence, he found a reason for Li Ke and whispered Kobe.

"Look at the starting lineups on both sides..."

On the court, Okafor faced Jermaine O'Neal. These two brothers are now considered in distress and were both on the transfer market by their respective teams.

Behind Okafor are the three regular starters of the Bobcats, Boss Hua, Matt Carol and Li Ke, and finally Fei Dun.

On the Pacers, the fourth position is Troy Murphy, the second and third positions are Danny Granger and Mike Dunleavy, and the point guard is the rookie Andre Owens.

"The Bobcats play all the main players, and the Pacers are similar. It is worth mentioning that their starting point guard Andre Owens. Because Jamaltinsley was injured, coach Rick Carlisle was forced to activate Andre Owens."

"This season, the Pacers lack point guard too much. Andre Owens is forced to start. Travis Dina, the point guard sitting on the bench, has been out of the ball for two or three months..."

In the private room in the stands, Boss Qiao saw the somewhat strange face of Andre Owens at first sight.

"Who is that number 20?"

"No. 20? Are you talking about Andre Owens? He played with the Jazz before, well, that was two seasons ago."

Larry Bird had no intention of hiding it at all, because it was useless to hide it. Those who had done their homework knew the current plight of the Pacers.

After Jamaltinsley was injured, the Pacers had no point guard available. Andre Owens was just making up the numbers and signed a Dinner who was not interested in offseason. It was difficult for Rick Carlisle to use it in the turn.

The main controller who hasn't played in the NBA for two seasons?

Boss Qiao's eyes immediately lit up and he turned his expectant eyes to Fei Dun.

When Okafor won the jump ball in one go, the pressure of Feidun got the ball, and the game began.

Fei Dun quickly sent the ball to the frontcourt, and then Li Ke rushed over.

It was Granger who followed Li Ke and followed Li Ke to the top of the arc.

I saw a pick-and-roll, and Granger stepped back and delayed, but Li Ke quickly took a step back...

This was a fake block, and Andre Owens immediately stepped forward. As a marginal person struggling hard in this league, Owens had a clear mind and knew what he should and should not do.

He knew that he had to switch defense to Li Ke.

It was also this that changed defense, which gave Fei Dun the opportunity to play big, although this big is a number three position.

"Felton accelerated and rushed into the penalty area. Granger could no longer keep up. He made a layup and the ball entered!"

Li Ke and Fei Dun hit the palm of their hands, and Granger exposed his problems with this ball. As one of the typical examples of being inappropriate, his speed was too slow.

"Everyone says that pick-and-roll cannot be faked, but Li Ke will use his actual actions to tell you that pick-and-roll things can be faked."

Director Zhang forced Li Ke to vent again.

In the private room in the stands, Boss Qiao was still restraining himself, whispering in his heart: It's not yet, it's not yet...

In the Pacers' round, Andre Owens was naturally the one who received the ball in the backcourt, but as soon as he passed the ball to Mike Dunleavy, he immediately passed the ball to Mike Dunleavy.

The Pacers have a poor record this year. To put it bluntly, they have no leader. In the past few seasons, Reggie Miller has retired, Arte has transferred, and O's big injury. A team of Eastern Conference champions has become a mess.

But they have not completely failed to play, and their record has been swinging on the edge of the playoffs. The reason is that Larry Bird has brought in a group of second-rate star players, all of whom are white.

From Peja to Mike Dunleavy to Troy Murphy, there are all whites, and they are all quasi-star players.

This season, Mike Dunleavy has performed as much as Tanhua should have. He averaged 19 points and 5 rebounds per game so far, and his efficiency is not low.

Matt Carroll struggled to defend his singles.

When Dunleavy broke through with a breakthrough, he was about to break Matt Carroll's defense, Boss Hua assisted in defense, but missed Murphy.

"Troy Murphy received the ball and made a mid-range shot, and the Pacers immediately returned one."

When it was the Pacers' turn to score, Coach Zhang said it much simpler.

Yu Jia analyzed for a while: "Obviously, the two Pacers' forwards and a shooting guard both have the ability to shoot at mid- and long distances. No one in the Bobcats can let go. This is just a gap, and one gap means at least 2 points. Li Ke and Gerald Wallace's defense is fine. Sam Vincent needs to think about this point in Matt Carroll."

In fact, it is not that difficult to adjust. It is nothing more than letting Okafor play the fourth position, against Murphy, and let Nazel Mohammed play.

Sam Vincent's reaction was not that fast, or he had many characteristics that mediocre coaches had, and he would not take the small problems exposed at the beginning seriously.

Turning around, Li Ke and Fei Dun played pick-and-roll again with Li Ke and Li Ke received the ball this time and pulled a three-pointer from the outside.

With a clang, it didn't enter.

"Hey, this ball... didn't make it, it's a pity, the opportunity has been released!"

Director Zhang felt very sorry. In the private room in the stands, Boss Qiao saw Li Ke take action and clenched his fist, but then the familiar sound of ironwork sounded made him loosen his fist.

The Pacers' offense, their choices were the same as the Bobcats, and they had already achieved another successful style of play. Dunleavy once again singled Matt Carroll, and then made a mid-range shot by himself.

With a swish, the Pacers took the lead with a score of 4 to 2.

Boss Qiao in the stands frowned. This was not a big deal.

Although the Pacers only scored two goals, the two goals were too easy.

Li Ke was also helpless. He glanced at Matt Carroll and organized a wave of defense change.

"Matt, you'll go to defend Troy Murphy later, let Gerald go to defend Mike Dunleavy."

"good!"

In this lynx, Li Ke's words are quite effective.

In a word, on the court, whoever has a hard fist will be the boss.

This bobcat is only one who has a harder fist than Li Ke. Boss Hua is still the kind of person who says nothing on the court. He is a rash man who does something with his brain. He can only leave it to Li Ke.

After organizing the defense change, Li Ke was not ruthless at all.

After a pick-and-roll failure, he stopped repeating it, but instead made a simple cut without the ball, popped out, and then took the ball and shot directly.

"Li Ke's China Investment..."

Swish!

"The ball has entered!"

Yu Jia's commentary was simple and straightforward, and Director Zhang was happy: "I played well, Li Ke, this ball should be played like this!"

The score equalized, but it was Li Ke's goal, and Boss Qiao smiled.

He stared at Larry Bird beside him, then turned his head and continued to watch the game without saying a word.

Larry Bird has the style of being silent from beginning to end. He of course continued to remain silent in the score of 4 to 4.
To be continued...
