Sometimes, certain injuries are avoidable.
If Lian Dao was injured during garbage time, it would be too unworthy.
The ending of the Bulls has made all team coaches vigilant.
Especially during garbage time, Rose was put on the field, which caused Rose to be injured and directly reimbursed for the season.
This also caused coach Thibodeau to be criticized by the majority of Bulls fans.
Therefore, D'Antoni will never allow the tragedy of the Bulls to appear on the Knicks.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the playoffs, D'Antoni is also to protect Lian Dao.
So, replace Lian Dao and rest.
Anyway, for the Pacers, chasing 21 points in 8 minutes is basically impossible.
Lian Dao also nodded in agreement, and he didn't think the Pacers could make any big waves.
D'Antoni made a bold substitution this time. He did not replace Lian Dao with the experienced and relatively good offensive Gallinari.
Instead, he replaced Lian Dao with Jimmy Butler, who did not have much game experience.
At the same time, what he replaced at the fifth position was not Hayes, but the big white side Hassan Whiteside.
After the timeout, the Knicks sent out a combined lineup of Jeremy Lin, Tony Allen, Butler, Stoudemire and Hassan Whiteside.
D'Antoni is up and down, full bench lineup!
It seems that D'Antoni wants to go through the playoffs again.
The effect of using the Magic team to train troops before is still very good.
Although the strength has not improved much, some players have a clear understanding of the intensity of the playoffs.
This will also be of great help to their subsequent growth.
Moreover, with the experienced former starter Stoudemire, it is difficult for opponents to make waves.
If nothing else, the last eight minutes of the game passed smoothly.
…
Back from the timeout, the Pacers went on the offensive.
Unlike the Knicks, the Pacers did not replace the main lineup.
But this is also normal, after all, this is the playoffs, and the opponent belongs to the backward side.
Even if you know that the situation is irreversible, it is still very necessary to recover some points and save face.
George Hill took the baseline ball and started pressing forward.
Immediately outside the three-point line, he suddenly accelerated and hit Jeremy Lin by surprise.
After reaching the penalty area, facing Whiteside's supplementary defense, he jumped directly.
But when Da Baibian blocked the shot, he found that Hill didn't have the ball in his hand at all.
"Boom!"
Immediately, Hibbert scored a dunk directly under the basket.
Just when the big white side was defending, George Hill's pass had already been sent to Hibbert.
Seeing the perfect cooperation between George Hill and Hibbert, Granger was also very excited and stepped forward to high-five.
Then out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at Lian Dao who was sitting on the bench.
Lian Dao didn't care about Hibbert's goal. Even if they scored two points, they were still 19 points behind.
At this time, Lian Dao was chatting with Millsap beside him, as if he had clocked out of get off work.
Granger wiped his nose with a finger, and quickly he threw himself into defense.
Just now the entire Pacers showed their attitude of not fighting to the last second and never giving up on the bench.
