    "Me?" Looking at the direction the referee was pointing, Jiang Jun was a little confused.

    The referee¡¯s finger pointed at Jiang Jun.

    But Jiang Jun thought the ball was clean. Except for the basketball, he didn't even touch the opponent's skin.  At most, it was because he grabbed the ball hard, causing Collison to stumble a little.

    The fans in the audience were in an uproar, and Old Brown was also very angry.

    In the VIP seats, Jordan sat with Bird, the president of the Pacers, and grinned: "It seems that we are in trouble this year. Larry, the league is very hostile to our Bobcats."

    Bird squinted his eyes and smiled: "No, it should be said that the alliance is very fair."

    Jordan smiled and said: "If Jiang was an American, there would be no problem. He would be like James Durant Ross and be loved by the league. Just like you white people had a higher status than us black people back then."

    Bird laughed twice and lowered his voice: "You said these will cause racial discrimination. In the league, blacks and whites actually have equal status. There is no discrimination, otherwise there wouldn't be so many black stars.  .¡±

    Bird¡¯s words are true. Although there has been discrimination against people of color in the United States for a long time, the status of black people in the NBA is still not low.  At least there is less and less blatant discrimination like that.

    After all, the charm of sports lies in being faster, higher and stronger. People always respect the strong. The physical advantages of black people often lead them to be ahead in sports. In the NBA, it is the top stars who take the lead.  The proportion is huge.

    Over the years, there have been several American players such as Bird, Stockton, Rick Barry, McHale, Laettner, and Van Horn, as well as foreign players such as Nowitzki, Nash, Gasol, and Ginobili.  .

    Among black people, superstars can be said to be as numerous as the stars in the sky.

    Although he received a lot of criticism from the fans and the Bobcats, the referee remained unmoved and ruled that Jiang Jun had fouled when grabbing the ball.

    Jiang Jun shook his head and gave the ball to the referee.  He knows that the league is really determined to kill me and does not want to make it easier for a foreign player.  Whoever comes to the forefront will be punished.

    ?This is the case in the regular season, but it gets even worse in the playoffs.  But, are you afraid?  Second O!

    Jiang Jun remained calm and even stopped Jackson who came forward to argue with the referee.

    The Pacers re-serve the mid-range ball.  Collison received the ball from Hansbrough, looked up at Jiang Jun, protected the ball with his left hand, dribbled the ball with his right, and slowly advanced.

    Collison was a little afraid of Jiang Jun. They met several times in the regular season, but he never took advantage.

    Although Jiang Jun does not seem to be a powerful player and his style of play is not very tough, his offensive and defensive efficiency drives opponents crazy.

    In the words of Old Brown, it is to play the ball in the right way, and it seems that Jiang Jun is very focused and has sufficient physical fitness. Almost the whole game is playing in the "right way". As an opponent, he can only do nothing.

    Arriving at the frontcourt, Collison saw Jiang Jun in front of him who seemed a little careless. He still did not choose to play singles, but steadily passed the ball to Granger on the right.

    Granger showed no mercy when facing Budinger's defense outside the three-point line. He immediately made a jump shot and hit a three-pointer.

    The Pacers took the lead in scoring.

    Smith praised: "Granger was sluggish in the regular season, but gradually entered the state as the playoffs approached, and today it looks like he will surprise the Bobcats."

    Miller said: "Granger should be an underrated player in the league."

    Barkley said: "But Jiang Jun is still the best player. There is no doubt that the final championship will belong to the Bobcats. Michael will achieve his biggest victory since becoming the boss."

    Thomas served a baseline ball. After Jiang Jun got the ball, he walked forward slowly. When he reached the three-point line, he first passed the ball to Yao Ming, who was also on the strong side.

    As soon as Yao Ming got the ball, Hibbert immediately stepped forward.  This young man is tall and strong, and he doesn't look much shorter than Yao Ming.

    Yao Ming hit the ball twice, feeling unsure, and immediately returned the ball to Jiang Jun.

    After Jiang Jun caught the ball, he opened his hand and shot without any warning. Collison didn't expect Jiang Jun to be so sudden, and it was too late when he pounced.

    Three-pointer hit.  The two sides came up and it was long shot versus long shot.

    In the next round, Collison still did not attack, but continued to give the ball to Granger.

    This time, Budinger learned his lesson and ran to Granger early to keep a close eye on him.  Granger did not hit him hard, but took it easy.The ball was given to Hansbrough, who was in a position inside.

    Hansbrough stared at Thomas and attacked inside. Within the three-second zone, he made a small hook and scored the ball.

    By the time Thomas wanted to defend, it was already too late.  He is indeed not as confrontational as the other party.

    Next, Jiang Jun passed the ball to Yao Ming again. Yao Ming saw that there was little chance, and Jiang Jun was also guarded by the opponent, so he immediately threw the ball to Jackson on the weak side.

    Jackson broke through Paul George and immediately made a jumper near the free throw line.  The ball also went in.  5 to 5, the two sides were tied again.

    Subsequently, George of the Pacers also made a three-pointer to help the team gain an 8-5 lead.

    However, the Bobcats did not wait for Yao Ming to get into position this time. Jiang Jun dribbled the ball down quickly, with Budinger and Jackson supporting him from the wings.

    Jiang Jun immediately took off and shot from outside the three-point line, and the ball hit again.  Another draw.

    ?The next attack by both sides failed.

    The Pacers grabbed the rebound and attacked, and Granger fired from a distance again, and still hit the target!

    ? Next it¡¯s performance time for the Bobcats.  Jiang Jun, Yao Ming, and Thomas succeeded one after another, and the Bobcats led by 4 points.

    ? Then Hansbrough scored 4 points in a row to equalize the score.  15 to 15.

    Then Jiang Jun made another three-pointer to help the team lead 18-15.

    So far he has scored 12 points and 4 assists.

    At this time, the game had just lasted 6 minutes.  Unexpectedly, Jiang Jun ran into trouble again.

    When Jiang Jun and Budinger were helping to defend Granger, Jiang Jun collided with Granger. He was fine, while his opponent Granger fell to the ground.

    The referee blew the whistle again, Jiang Jun committed two fouls!

    Old Brown reluctantly replaced Jiang Jun and replaced him with Augustin.

    "Oh, this is simply a body-hair foul. Granger's ability to fight was originally poor, so his fall to the ground had little to do with Jiang Jun." Barkley said angrily.

    ¡°Then it was Collison¡¯s performance time, and he was seen shuttling back and forth on the court, sweeping away the caution he had played against Jiang Jun just now.

    After a few rounds, he made four out of four shots and became as dazzling a star as Granger.

    In the second half of the quarter, the Bobcats only relied on the breakthroughs of Jackson and Augustin to score 4 points.  The Pacers are blooming steadily, leaving the home fans speechless.

    At the end of the first quarter, the Pacers led by 5 points 27 to 22.

    Smith smiled and said: "It seems that we still don't know who will win. Charles, what do you have to say?"

    Barkley shook his head and said: "I originally thought the Pacers were not only soft in style, but their center Hibbert, forwards Dunleavy Jr. and Granger were all limited in their ability to fight. In addition, they didn't have the athletic talent like Philadelphia or New York's.  A superstar. Ordinarily, the Bobcats would have a huge advantage against the Pacers in terms of hardness and defense. Using the strong to bully the weak should be like a swift wind sweeping away autumn leaves."

    Miller laughed and said: "Unexpectedly, the Pacers' best performer is Collison. We can see that Jiang Jun, who is facing off against Collison, will certainly not show weakness. In fact, when Jiang Jun is on the court, Collison  Sen didn't perform much. As soon as Jiang Jun came off the court, we discovered that Collison, a second-year player, is still very good. Although he entered the playoffs for the first time, his performance was very calm, with 8 in the first quarter.  He scored points and assisted his teammates many times. In the first playoff game of his career, Collison did not act like a rookie at all."

    Smith sighed: "The Pacers' regular season record was only 37 wins and 45 losses, and they finally made it to the playoffs; the Bobcats' regular season record ranked first in the league, but they didn't expect that the first game went very poorly. Not only did they fall behind, they also  Jiang, the leader of the team, also got into foul trouble. This is really beyond our expectation. Is there going to be an upset in the first game?"

    Miller said with satisfaction: "I have said long ago that as long as the Pacers' boys can take advantage of their physical strength and three-point advantage, they still have hope."

    Barkley muttered: "It's really unbelievable. The Pacers' three-pointers are so accurate! But I think the reason why the Bobcats are lagging behind is because Jiang Jun commits too many fouls. He will be whistled at the slightest contact with the opponent."  If he commits a foul, his playing time will be cut off. In this case, not only will his condition be difficult to guarantee, but it will also be difficult for his teammates. If frustration pervades the entire team, it is likely to affect the performance of the entire team.  .¡±

    At the beginning of the second quarter, substitute players from both sides came on the field, and the game was inseparable.  Jiang Jun came on the field 5 minutes later in the second quarter and recovered some disadvantages. However, today's Pacers shot too accurately. Not only Granger, but also Dunleavy Jr. and George were also frighteningly accurate. Although Jiang Jun had no shot.  It was a false call, but after the second quarter, the Bobcats were still 4 points behind 51-55.

    Jiang Jun first halfScored 24 points and 9 assists.  Both statistics are the highest in the game.

    During the halftime break, Old Brown scolded the players with a sullen face for a long time. He believed that everyone's defense on the outside was really poor, which led to the opponent's extremely high shooting percentage. This was the reason why everyone fell behind at home.

    The Bobcats were only at a 51-55 disadvantage in the first half, and narrowed the gap to 2 points at the beginning of the second half. Then Granger hit three consecutive shots in more than a minute, including two three-pointers, and scored 8 points in a row.  , the Pacers achieved a double-digit advantage with 9 minutes and 20 seconds left in the third quarter.

    The Bobcats are undoubtedly the most favored, and many people predict that the Bobcats will easily sweep the Pacers 4-0 in this round.  But what is surprising is that after the game was halfway through the third quarter, the Bobcats fell behind by double digits 57-69.
