"It's a shame we lost the first game of the series, the Pacers are a very strong team, but it's just one game, the long series has just begun, I don't think it's the end of the world if we lose one away game, you know that there are seven games in a series, and what will happen at the end of the long schedule, no one can predict."

"Meng Xu's performance today? We are one of the best defensive teams in the entire league, in the 82 regular season games this season, no one has been able to score 40 points from us, and Meng Xu did it today, and not only 40 points, but 60 points, 60 points, he scored a full 60 points on our head, today's game, he beat us alone, there is no doubt that he is the best player in this league, if the regular season MVP vote for me to participate, I will definitely vote for Meng Xu in my first vote. “

After the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Pacers and the Pistons, because today's protagonist Meng Xu did not attend the post-game press conference, Pistons head coach Philip Saunders became the target of many reporters and reporters on the scene. At the same time, he also continued to satirize these reporters in and out of the words, and even mixed with some sowing discord.

For these reporters who have no lower limit on their discipline, Philip Sanders has never had a good face, as for their current behavior of standing up for Meng Xu, Philip Saunders is even more despised, these people voted for the MVP of the regular season, and basically voted for Tim Duncan, who was BIAO when voting, but now he is running over to Meng Xu to stand on the platform and want to set up an archway.

"Peja's performance? Peja was outstanding today, both offensively and defensively, he did his best and contributed to the team, as for Peja's pre-match remarks, I don't think there was anything wrong with Peja's words, he doesn't need to apologize to anyone for his words and he doesn't need to be accountable to anyone. “

"Will we continue to lose in the next game? Although we lost this game, it doesn't mean that we will lose all the time, as for Meng Xu, I admit that he is very strong, he is the strongest player in my mind, but he can't score 60 points on our heads every game, and in the same way, we won't be like today in every game. “

On May 8, 2006, the Eastern and Western semifinals were played separately, in the Spurs' home game against the Mavericks, the NBA league held a regular season MVP award ceremony for the Spurs' star Tim Duncan, after the award ceremony, Tim Duncan led the Spurs to a 87-85 victory over the Mavericks at home, crowned the regular season MVP, led the team to victory, and scored 31 points, 14 rebounds, 4 blocks in the game, it stands to reason that the protagonist tonight is none other than Tim Duncan, However, after the two divisional finals are all over, today's focus does not belong to Tim Duncan, because in the other divisional semifinals, Meng Xu scored 60 points, 60 points in a single playoff game, and 60 points in a single playoff game for the fifth time in NBA history, such a crazy game is enough to overshadow the limelight of the regular season MVP.

After the news of Meng Xu's 60-point score, countless media reporters who went to San Antonio to cover the Spurs beat their chests and regretted that they missed such a wonderful game.

After Meng Xu cut a single game of 60 points, countless people are looking forward to Meng Xu's performance in the next game, the ticket price of the second game of the Pacers and Pistons has even been fried to 3 times that of the first game, of course, there are also some "rational emperors" who stand up in this situation, claiming that Meng Xu's performance in the next game is absolutely sorry for such an expensive ticket money, there is only one reason, that is, except for the big pervert Chamberlain, no one can cut a single game after 60+, can also play too against the sky in the next game, not even Jordan, let alone Meng Xu.

On May 10, Game 2 of the Pacers and Pistons' series kicked off again at the Bankers' Living Arena.

After the loss of the previous game, the Pistons did not change the slightest change in the second game, whether it is the team's lineup or on-court tactics, center Ben Wallace, power forward Rasheed Wallace, small forward Peja Stojakovic, scoring guard Richard Hamilton, playmaking guard Chauncey Billups, Philip Sanders sent the starting lineup to the court and the same as the loss.

Generally speaking, the side that loses first in the playoffs must be the first to adjust, but Philip Saunders did the opposite, without making the slightest change to the team's lineup and on-court tactics, probably in Philip Saunders' view, the Pistons lost the last game, it is completely a non-war crime, if it weren't for Meng Xu's 60 points, who loses and who wins. Maybe Philip Saunders also believed the nonsense of those "emperors of reason", and did not make any adjustments to the team's lineup, but chose to wait and see, in case Meng Xu really didn't feel it today!

Meng Xu, who was pinned on high hopes by the "Emperor of Reason" and wanted to play abnormally in this game, undoubtedly disappointed these "Emperor of Reason", today's game, Meng Xu once again broke Peja Stojakovic at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, played 41 minutes in the game, cut down 52 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists, after this game, Meng Xu tied a record held by Jordan for 18 seasons, becoming the second player in NBA history to score more than 50 points in two consecutive games in the playoffs.

"We're really already thinking about the next round." After cutting 50+ again and leading the Pacers to defeat the Pistons and take a 2-0 lead, Meng Xu finally attended the post-game press conference, but Meng Xu's first words made Philip Saunders angry, and he was almost ready to leave in anger.

"Haha." Looking at Philip Saunders's face that was about to suffocate internal injuries, Meng Xu couldn't help but feel a sense of darkness.
