Beijing time on December 16, the NBA regular season continues, today's regular season can be said to be very exciting, the Lakers killed the Lone Ranger, the Pelicans killed the Thunder, the Pacers faced the lack of alphabet brother and Middleton Bucks, originally thought they could also contribute a match, but did not expect the Pacers to lose to the remnant Bucks 99-114 in the case of full core play.
Today the Bucks were able to win Holliday's greatest achievement, he shot 12 of 18, 1 of 2 three-pointers and 14 assists, in his tandem Portis 16-of-8, 3-of-3 for 20 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists, Connaughton 7 of 9, 4 of 3-of-3 for 20 points and 2 rebounds, Jordan Walla had 7 of 15 on the field, 15 points for 5 for 15 points, 1 assist for 3 steals and 1 block.
The Pacers did play beautifully while looking at the stats alone, with five players scoring in double figures, but none of the players scored more than 16 points: Brogdon had 12 points, five rebounds and five assists on 4-of-10 shooting, Sabonis had 16 points, 14 rebounds and 5 assists on 6-of-10 shooting, Le Vere had 16 points and 4 rebounds on 6-of-13 shooting, Turner had 13 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 5 blocks on 5-of-12 shooting, and Duarte had 10 points, 3 rebounds and 1 block.
I don't know why after the start of the season, the Pacers let Brogdon take the reins, he became the team's ball-holding core, brogdon was only a 3D in the Bucks period, although he had a certain organizational ability but he did not reach the point of holding the ball, today he was targeted several times on the offensive end, Portis staged a life break Brogdon and then dunked, the defensive end was also targeted by Holliday and Jordan Walla several times against singles, the team boss was blown up, and the team lost confidence is normal.
In fact, if the Pacers still have Sabonis as the core of the team this season, I don't think they will be like this, maybe the record will be better. In fact, there is no need, after all, the Pacers are already planning to rebuild, and winning or not winning does not matter to them, they have already put Brogdon, Turner and LeVille on the shelves, and there have been many rumors about the three-man trade recently.
And after the game, the Pacers have another two operations of one signing and one cut, according to the team reporter, the team will cut Dehong Jarrow, and they will sign a two-way contract with Terry Taylor, Taylor has previously participated in the Pacers training camp, heard that this Taylor is similar to the Heat Tucker, the defensive ability is outstanding, although only 1.9 or so but the body is strong enough, the defense is also very active, is this for Sabonis and Turner?
This signing is honestly irrelevant to the Pacers, the team is not interesting to anyone, and now that the players who signed in the offseason can be traded, the Pacers are planning to rebuild and sell their core to change draft picks and young players is the right way.
After today's win, the Bucks reached the second place in the East, they are only two wins away from the Nets, this is still the team Middleton and Big Lowe in the case of injury and illness, and when the whole team returns, the Bucks will still be very scary, for now I don't think there is a team in the East that can withstand the firepower of the Bucks. Speaking of which, do you have anything to say about today's game? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
