With Granger at the peak of his career, and with strong leadership skills, the Pacers, whose lineup isn't bad, although it's tough to win games, have the strength to compete with any opponent for a while, and it's rare for them to be completely thrashed.
But tonight was a bit special, with half a quarter where he went 7 for 5, including 2 for 2 from three-point range, scoring 12 points without any free throws... The Pacers players were totally stunned.
Watching Zhang Yang shoot, they had only one thought—how the hell does he dare to shoot that? And how does he keep scoring!
But thinking carefully about it, those shots seemed to count as opportunities, but for them, even for someone as talented as Granger who's amongst the top scorers, they wouldn't normally view those as shot opportunities, let alone seize the moment to shoot.
