Chapter 422: Pacers without Weakness

This big victory was just the beginning, and then, the Pacers were still at home, and the team challenging the Pacers was not strong. The second game was that the Wizards, who were also a little combat-effective in the East last year, had their inside line weaker after this year and were completely begged by Lin Sen. Last year, Lin Sen had already scored a record of 38 points in a single quarter on the Wizards.

In this game, the Pacers still opened a gap from the inside and made the entire Pacers easier to play. The Pacers made a total of 21 three-pointers in normal competitions, and Lin Sen gave 7 assists to the outside three-pointer.

The quasi-triple double-double in two consecutive games, with nearly 10 assists, which made many people exclaim that Lin Sen's passing ability was an unprecedented trough. The game was so smooth that the Pacers seemed to be running in the game, and the running in was much faster than imagined. The first week of the 4-game winning streak, among which the Thunder and Nuggets were considered to be the best team in the playoffs, but in the hands of the Pacers, it was still a little more than 3 quarters to take away and become garbage time.

The Player of the Week in the first week was released. Lin Sen averaged 33.7 points, 12.2 rebounds, 7.7 assists, 1.4 steals and 3.2 blocks and became the Player of the Week in the first week. Among them, he ranked first in the league in scoring and blocking averages, ranked third in the Eastern Conference in the 6th, and ranked 11th in the league in assists per game. A center's assists have reached this number, not to mention other data crushes, and coupled with the record of 4 consecutive victories, the Player of the Week has not had to run this week.

The team has a good record, the Pacers fans are happy, and the Pacers are all very strong in their stressful new players. After all, they are coming to a championship team. If there is a problem with the results, can’t you come from this bad new player? What’s wrong with looking for old players? Just say that the champion last year will block you directly.

The new players performed well. In addition to Lin Sen, the Pacers now have a bit of egalitarianism in their quasi-All-star players, but they are not absolutely the same in their attempts. If the ball holder has a good chance, he will do it himself, and those without the ball have a better chance, so they will pass the ball, with only one goal and higher efficiency.

As the game progressed gradually, the Pacers were getting better and better in progress, and they also won 12 consecutive victories in November. Here we can see that Oladipo did have the talent to be selected as the second-tier show. The reason why he did not play in the Magic was that he had too much expectations for him at the beginning, and the other was that the Magic did not make good use of his strengths and weaknesses.

He is not a crazy man who has a very fast first step, and he can only be considered above the level of operation and control technology. His advantage lies in his explosive power after starting and his ending ability after confrontation. His strength is his advantage.

So Oladipo relies heavily on pick-and-roll. In fact, he has the chance to play in the Thunder, but he has no ball rights. In the Pacers, Lin Sen does score more, but he scores more in a final attempt. When you give him the ball, it means he wants to score. After halftime, organization, and operation control, Oladipo now accounts for a higher proportion than Gordon, and Lin Sen's pick-and-roll. In the first 12 games, Oladipo scored averaging 21.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game, with an average of 2055 per game. No matter how you look at it, you are already an All-Star player.

"The Pacers' second core is gradually emerging, and Victor Oladipo is playing the best data in his career."

There is nothing wrong with this report. In addition to the career high of scoring, Oladipo's 47.4% shooting percentage and 37.1% three-point shooting percentage are also career highs. He has become the Pacers' most stable No. 2 scoring point, and not only on the offense or defensive end, he is also becoming more and more reliable. Not to mention the 2.2 steals shown by the data, there are also various data that cannot be seen in assisting defense.

The most depressing thing is Eric Gordon. If George leaves, he will be the second leader? But there is no way. Oladipo has a combination of offense and defense, and he has more opportunities to play, and he is indeed better than him in terms of finishing ability. Once he fails to make three-pointers, he is not as easy as Oladipo's offensive end.

However, it would be fine if Oladipo performed so well, but after 12 games, he averaged 15.3 points per game, and the third scorer in the team was Gallinari. He averaged 17.4 points per game, and his score was not very high. What is exaggerated is his scoring efficiency, with a shooting percentage of 48.2%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 49.1%. Now he is the three-point shooter with the highest shooting percentage in the league.

In the game against the Trail Blazers, he scored 42 points and scored 8 of 9 three-pointers to score 42 points to win the second highest score in his career. When he was finally selected as the best player, the big screen began to scroll and play Gallinari's eight three-pointers, all of which were very comfortable to shoot, 4 passes from Linson and 3 passes from Oladipo. There was only one real difficult hit, but he was such a player and could not withstand pressure. Under the treatment of the Pacers' No. 3 and No. 4 scorers, the scoring efficiency increased slowly.

The Pacers are now one of the teams with the largest number of three-pointers in the league, averaging 17.7 three-pointers, and the three-pointers are very scattered. Linson, Turner, and Sadies Young averages 4 three-pointers per game. It is not that if any person or who are not effective, the Pacers will not have three-pointers.

But after all, Lin Sen is still the first core of the team. He is the basis of 12 consecutive victories. If you ask all the coaches of the league, the Pacers, where the most threatening attack comes from, almost all teams will think it is the inside and the middle distance. Oladipo averages only 1.7 three-pointers per game! He likes to enter the inside even more. And Lin Sen's scores are in the penalty area.

Coupled with the Pacers' continued defense, Grant made up for the forward defense after George left, and he and CJ Myers formed a perfect substitute 3D defense line. Especially when Linson was not on the court, he made up for the outside defense, and Turner could also play more comfortable.

At the beginning of the winning streak, everyone was just amazed at the unexpected smooth running-in of the Pacers, the unexpected power of the new player, and Lin Sen's expected strength. Such Pacers became a Pacers without weaknesses. They had to have an inside line, three-pointers and three-pointers. The middle distance was not a weakness. They could grab the board, counterattack, and have faster attacks, positions, and defend the defensive end. They could defend the pick-and-roll, protect the frame, and can stare at people. They could play in defense. At least the 12 teams in the front did not find a way to solve the Pacers within the limited game time.
