But the Pacers, who need them to grab rebounds, can't let them retreat prematurely.
This is an unsolvable weakness.
However, none of this matters anymore, the most important thing now is...
The Pacers are only leading by 2 points, if they don't score in this play, they could be killed!
Rick Carlisle decisively used the last timeout and carefully laid out the next tactic.
He set up two consecutive fake screens, then a real screen to help Lin Shuhao get the ball, while gathering everyone at the right 45-degree angle, then spreading out, aiming to make the New York Knicks uncertain of Zach Randolph's movement route at first.
This move was very successful.
Randolph received Lin Shuhao's pass while rolling to the basket and directly went for a layup.
The ball hit the backboard and bounced towards the hoop, and the crowd started to cheer as they watched the ball spin half a circle on the rim and fall out.
"Pop!"
Tyson Chandler secured the rebound.
