You couldn't play too complex a game against the Bulls. Getting too fancy just held you back.
The moment Su Xi moved to the two-guard and started breaking them down with one-on-one plays, the Pacers' offense clicked into place. They also started to suppress the Bulls on the defensive end.
It was like treating a second-rate martial artist like a top-tier one. You'd fight with restraint, only to find yourself in an unexpectedly even match.
But if you just let loose and fought without holding back...
How could a second-rate fighter possibly stand up to a first-rate one?
Besides, the Pacers were more than just a first-rate team.
Su Xi went on an offensive tear, relentlessly using one-on-one plays to break through the defense of Hinrich and Ben Gordon.
The Pacers had found their solution. They quickly retook the lead and began to pull further and further away.
The Bulls were put back in their rightful place.
