Chapter 609 The Brave Wins
April 4, Indiana.

The series between the Heat and the Pacers went to Game [-] and returned to the Pacers' home stadium, Banks Life Arena.

The auditorium was full of Pacers fans, crowded and extremely noisy, because today is the last stand for the Pacers, once they lose, they will be eliminated.

Countless Pacers fans came to the scene to cheer for the Pacers, hoping that they can win and rewrite the total score of the series to 3:3, which will enter the tiebreaker, and they still have a chance.

"shush"

When the Heat players arrived, boos rang out from the audience.

Jiang Xiaoai and Guo Shuyao sat in the front seats, and she couldn't help frowning and snorting angrily when she heard the boos from all over the place.

Guo Shuyao said with a smile: "It's nothing, after all, it's the opponent's home court. In fact, the louder the opponent's fans boo in the away game, the more excited Meng Yun and the others will be, because for them, the booing in the away game is like the booing at home. Cheers."

"Really?" Jiang Xiaoai's eyes glowed, but she still pursed her mouth and said, "But I still don't like it very much."

This is the first time Jiang Xiaoai came to the scene of an NBA game, and she came directly to the scene of the playoffs. Facing the crowd of fans, the huge hustle and bustle, she felt very uncomfortable.

Sitting not far away are Yao Ming and his assistant.

In addition, Mason Carr also came, still with Evan, this time without waiting for Evan to call, Meng Yun directly sent them the game tickets and air tickets in advance.

Meng Yun came to the sidelines, greeted them, and then returned to the field. The Pacers players also appeared one after another, attracting cheers from the audience.

This is, after all, the home of the Pacers.

"It's ridiculous." Joseph Young looked at the audience and said without cutting, "The fans are too naive to think that loud voices can scare us."

"Okay." Meng Yun slapped him, "Take care of yourself and prepare well."

Joseph Young smiled and went to warm up obediently.

Meng Yun looked at the Pacers and felt a chilling atmosphere. The Pacers had been pushed to the edge of a cliff, and there would definitely be a fierce counterattack. This game would not be easy.

But no matter how hard it is to fight, you have to win!
The warm-up ended quickly, and the players from both sides returned to the sidelines.

"Let me talk about it." Spoelstra clapped his hands and began to arrange: "It's still the same as the last game, Meng Yun, you still have the right to fire without restriction, don't have any worries, you can fight as you want. In addition , Wade, the opponent should not double-team you again, but it will definitely strengthen the defense against Meng Yun, so you need to provide fire support when Meng Yun restrains the opponent's defense. There are also Luol Deng and Green. Decisive. Whiteside, watch the paint and rebound."

After some arrangements, Spoelstra stopped, with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "I hope we can win this game and end this series. I don't want a tiebreaker, understand?"

"clear."

"Win this game."

"Kill the Pacers!"

The crowd roared in unison.

They need to settle the battle and end the series. If they are dragged into the tiebreaker, the result will be full of variables and unpredictable.

Not far away, Pacers players surrounded the head coach.

Coach Frank Vogel spread out the tactical board, arranged tactics, and then said to the players: "We have no retreat, we can only win but not lose. Do your best and let it go."

"Yes."

All the Pacers players nodded in unison, the atmosphere was dignified and chilling.

This is a battle of life and death, and there is a cliff behind them. They have no choice but to fight with all their strength.

"beep"

The whistle blew and the game officially started.

The Pacers got the ball, and their starting lineup was Mahinmi, Allen, George, Ellis, and Hill.

Hill advanced upfield, and Green lunged at him.

From the second game, Meng Yun was responsible for defending George, and the person defending Hill became Green.Hill glanced at Green, asked for a pick-and-roll, threw off Green to break through, and then passed the ball out to George. George took the ball and shot a three-pointer. Defend.

The Heat counterattacked, and Meng Yun immediately felt a strong defensive pressure when he came to the frontcourt. The defender in front of him changed. It was no longer Hill, but George.

"Will it be George to defend me?" Meng Yun was taken aback.

Although Meng Yun was responsible for defending George from the second game of the series, but on the offensive end, Meng Yun was still facing Hill.But now it's changed, it's George.

There is no doubt that the Pacers are very afraid of Meng Yun, and have already regarded him as the biggest threat, even surpassing Wade in the importance of him.

George is not only talented on offense, but also very strong on the defensive end. He has excellent physical fitness and defensive awareness. Meng Yun tried twice, but failed to find a flaw. He was not in a hurry and passed the ball to Wade .

Wade singles.

Without double-teaming, Wade had an advantage against Ellis, and he played singles with the ball, but unexpectedly, he failed this time. Ellis' defense was very fierce and very active.

boom!
The basketball bounces off the hoop, Mahinmi grabs the rebound, and the Pacers attack.
In a blink of an eye, 5 minutes later in the first quarter, Spoelstra called a timeout.

The 5-minute walker's offense was very sharp, resolute and decisive, no one hesitated, no one hesitated, everyone was full of enthusiasm and confidence.

On the defensive end, they are very fierce and try their best, especially against Meng Yun and Wade. They will never let Meng Yun and Wade score easily. Even if they can't defend, they must use fouls to destroy their scores. .

In 5 minutes, the score became 12:7, with the Pacers leading by 5 points.

It is unbelievable for the Heat to only score 5 points in 7 minutes. This scoring efficiency is too low.

"Whoa, whoa"

Meng Yun and others came off the field. Except for Meng Yun, everyone else was panting. They only played for 5 minutes, but the consumption was much greater than usual for a whole quarter.

The Pacers are crazy!

"We didn't play well in the past few minutes." Spoelstra said directly: "The opponent has no retreat and can only fight with their backs, so they put everything aside and played the most powerful fighting power. But we are now 3 : 2 lead, but dare not give it a go. Look at the current score, we scored 5 points in 7 minutes, is it because we can’t do it, and the strength is not as good as the opponent? No, no, we just can’t be as desperate as the opponent .”

The crowd was silent.

That's true, even though we all know we have to give it our all, and it's best to win this game, beat the Pacers, and avoid going to Game [-].

But on the court, facing the opponent's desperate posture, the Heat's players were a little weaker in momentum, and the brave won when they met in a narrow road, so the Pacers had the upper hand.
