The team that gave the Pacers a sixth defeat was the Portland Trail Blazers, who were like the Golden State Warriors a few years ago, full of talent and plasticity.

Among them are Marvin Williams, Al Horford, Marc Gasol and James Harden.

After years of accumulation of potential, it is now an explosion.

The rise of the suspension season is not accidental. Paul Gasol's younger brother, Mark Gasol, has less gorgeous skills than his brother, and his heavy body has a little more calm. In the NBA, his defense is much stronger than his brother. His confrontation, toughness, attitude towards encountering strong enemies, and his brother also looks like he plays a fiba game.

Harden's progress made the Trail Blazers a powerful team in the West.

They are currently ranked fourth in the Western Conference. In the game against the Pacers, Gasol Jr. withstood Yao, Horford scored consecutive jump shots at high positions. In addition, both of them have reliable rebounding ability. Yao Yao, who has always liked to block positions and is not good at catching rebounds (in the NBA), lost countless rebounds.

The Trail Blazers have rebounds and can be relaxed when they attack. The Pacers win for a long time, and failure may make them calm down again.

That's what Xie Hou thought.

"Losing is not necessarily a bad thing," Xie Hou told reporters. "The season is still long and every team will go through such a moment. It's a bad performance when facing a strong team, but we'll flush this into the toilet and regain our strength in the next game against the Knicks."

The Pacers had already had two encounters with the Knicks before.

Xie Jun shocked the whole country with 54 points in a game, and was hacked to the bottom of the game by the Pacers' double-team tactic.

This time, neither Xie Jun nor Xie Hou wanted to lose.

When the Pacers' plane landed in New York City, the airport reporters were already in place.

Xie Hou took off his headphones and dealt with the interview.

A reporter asked them if they were ready for the challenges brought by the Knicks.

Xie Hou looked dull and said one sentence to their question: "Can a team that cannot enter the playoffs bring challenges to the league's first team? I think it should be answered by Brigie."

Xie Hou's way of agreeing makes people think that there is something wrong with their brothers, but there is actually nothing wrong. Those who are familiar with Xie Hou know that the lower the season, the more serious he is and does not smile.

Xie Jun is his younger brother, his opponent, and the head of the Knicks. That position once belonged to James, Alan Houston, Ewing, Bernard King, and many great players. To make the title of King of New York a fact, Xie Jun needs to do a lot of work.

It was Xie Hou’s words that made the game smell like gunpowder.

Xie Jun took the form of playing against the Pacers in the first game, and the Pacers took the initiative to defend Xie Jun, and took the playoff level defense.

A good feel can be destroyed by impact.

Why did Xie Jun score 54 points on the Pacers at the beginning? His feel was indeed explosive.

Another thing that cannot be ignored is that the Pacer did not fight him too much. Sometimes he wanted to put some pressure on him, but he twisted his body and avoided it, not giving him a chance to attack.

It was different tonight. Since Xie Jun scored a goal, the confrontation continued to fall on him.

It seemed that he could get 50 points and ended up only 22 points.

Where is Xie Hou? He scored 18 points just by relying on the counterattack opportunity given to him by Xie Jun.

The accumulated positional battle income from the four quarters was 30 points.

Another 13 points were scored on the free throw line.

With 61 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists in the game, Xie Hou used his real dominance to teach Xie Jun a lesson.

Yao Yun did nothing, and the 1010 double-double economy in the game, and he whispered to the reporters: "I'm glad we won the game, we won a victory that should belong to us. Tonight was a special night, and Arthur scored a season-high 61 points against his brother. The interesting thing about this story is that Brigie scored 54 points against him before, and now he's back, I will definitely remember it forever. I'm really happy that I can witness it with my own eyes and become a part of this night."

Since the partner was his younger brother, Xie Hou didn't say anything harshly. He didn't feel as much emotion as Yao Yun and did not take the score of 61 points seriously. Moreover, 61 points were not worth mentioning for him.

He wants Xie Jun to see the gap.

"Xiaojun, if you want to beat me, you are still far from it." Xie Hou said to him before leaving Madison Garden.

"Anyway, I've lost to you countless times." Xie Jun turned around and comforted himself, "I've beat you once before, that's a good start."

"If you keep intoxicated by that victory, it will be the only game you will win me in the next few years."

Xie Jun muttered proudly: "I will find a way!"

"You can't find it!" Xie Hou also shouted loudly.

"I'll find it for him."

Just behind Xie Hou, he heard a familiar and unfamiliar tone.

I haven't heard his voice for a long time, and Xie Hou is hard to forget. Is his voice very nice? Or is it very special? None of them is. The reason why Xie Hou is impressed by him is because the owner of the voice has the most mean mouth in the world. Xie Hou has worked with him before, and he hears a few uncomfortable sarcasm from his mouth every day.

The tone of the sarcasm that helped him deeply penetrated Xie Hou's mind.

It’s like if anyone who has watched “The Curse” will not forget the “Uh~~~~~~” before Jia Yazi confronts people even if he is not scared.

"You have been his coach for three years and have been helping him improve, so that's what he has become?" Xie Hou looked directly at Jerry Robert III, and the words meant to be guilty.

Robert III asked lightly: "What are you dissatisfied with?"

"Why doesn't he like passing?"

"It's not that he doesn't like passing. To be honest, he doesn't have the organizational instinct like you." Robert III said the truth. "He will become a good passer in the future. If you expect him to average double assists like you, I don't think you can do anything but dream."

Xie Hou believed in Robert III's professionalism and also believed that he had made long-term plans for Xie Jun.

“Is his development trajectory within your plan?”

"Far beyond my imagination, he is a real genius." Robert III said affirmatively, "In less than three years, you will be beaten by him."

"Nonsense! I'll be 35 years old by then!" If Xie Jun can't beat him at the age of 35, he doesn't have to say anything to defeat him.

Later he started to slide down. What's the point of defeating him?

"So I want you to keep yourself clean, keep training, manage your body well, try to extend your peak period, and you need to know that you are like fertilizer to him."

"Are you talking about me in a different way?"

"Did you hear it?"

“Fuck!”

Xie Hou couldn't stand him and turned around and was about to leave.

Robert III's words came from afar: "I hope you understand that your position in Brigie's heart is extraordinary. If you really want to lose, you can only lose to him."

"Based on my definition of loss, I have lost for three years." Xie Hou turned around and said.

"By his definition, you haven't lost yet," Robert III said lightly, "just like he wouldn't take the matter of shaving your head in a bullfight."

"You even know this?"

"He told me everything."

Xie Hou was worried that Xie Jun would be led to his destruction, but over the years, Robert III has not turned Xie Jun into his Komodo dragon with venom in his mouth.

It seems that Robert III's only influence on Xie Jun is basketball.

This is the ideal result. Xie Hou was afraid that he would be too immersed in the role of teaching and wanted Xie Jun to know how to be a human being. Then his cute, arrogant and unyielding brother died, and replaced by Jerry Robert IV.

Next, until the end of the March schedule, the Pacers lost only 1 game.

In the final battle in March, they were against the Spurs.

Yao Zhuang beat Duncan who was injuring. At the same time, the Clippers lost another game, and the difference between the victory and the Pacers was two games away.

The Pacers' top position is temporarily stable, and De'an cannot be careless.

The April regular season, which was suspended, did not end until the 25th.

The Pacers, who currently have 43 wins and 7 losses, will play 15 games in the next half month, four back-to-back times.

That is, in 15 games, 8 games are divided into four groups to play in turn.
