Beijing time on December 17, the NBA regular season continued, today the Pacers sat at home to usher in the challenge of the Pistons, two teams one is the first to last in the East, one is the third from the bottom in the East, the Pistons are clearly rebuilt, and the Pacers although they put a number of cores on the shelves, but their lineup strength is still there, plus Grant did not play in this battle, the Pacers also defeated the opponent 122-113, after the loss of the Pistons won 13 consecutive losses, some teams look like they lost and actually won.
Today's new Branch Champion Cunningham's play is still good, 8 of 16 shots, 1 of 4 three points to win 19 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks of the data, Cunningham singles ability is excellent, but also has a good overall view, in the past period of time have a good performance, the past four games he cut 26 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, 16 points 4 assists 3 steals, 21 points 3 assists 2 steals, 28 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, the champion has begun to cash in on the talent.
The Pistons played best on the side of the game was Sadik Bay, he shot 9 of 17, 3 of 8 three-pointers and took 28 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists, Frank Jackson scored 18 points, Sabine Lee scored 11 points and 5 assists, Hayes scored 2 points on 1 of 3, last season the Pistons took the seventh pick Hayes, two seasons have not yet cashed in on the talent, for now, the future will be abandoned by the Pistons, the offensive ability is too limited.
The Pacers' best play today was LeVert, who shot 12-of-18 from the field, 3-of-3 from three-point range and 0-of-3 for 31 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, and LeVille, who has the ball, seems to be back in the Nets period, he has no problem with personal firepower, but he didn't get too much possession before, and scoring more than 18 points in two consecutive seasons during the Pacers era has shown how good he is, I think if the Pacers don't plan to rebuild, maybe it's a good choice to help Le Ver, his ability to lead the team is very good.
Today Le Ver played so well thanks to Brogdon's absence, it is strange to say, without Brogdon's tandem, the Pacers played more like a team, today Sassa had 12 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists on 5 of 9 in the game, Turner 7 of 12 in the game, 16 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks, Holliday had 17 points and 2 rebounds on 5 of 15 in the game, Duarte had 15 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, and Lamb had 11 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists.
Brogdon's absence so far this season has 4 wins and 3 losses, a win rate of more than half, and he played in 8 wins and 15 losses, a win rate of only 34.7%, if one or two absent teams win can be understood, but 7 games can already explain some problems, after the beginning of this season Carlisle helped Brogdon to be the core of the team, playing the big core of the ball play, but friends familiar with Brogdon know that he simply does not have that ability, his own data is good, but the team has not become better because of him.
In the current situation, I think it is not as good as helping Le Vere, although Le Ver also does not have top organizational ability, but his personal lethality is still good, and let Brogdon not play the big core of the ball, Sabonis Jr. can also get the ball to use his organizational ability to connect the team, Brogdon is more suitable for being a no-ball pitcher, which is proved by the Bucks, although he has a certain organizational ability, but not to the level of the big core of the ball.
Speaking of which, what do you think? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
