“Vintage” Khris Middleton vs. Pacers
« It’s our first win after the break, my first since I’ve been here. I hope we sign many more before the end of the season. » Chris Middleton can have a smile. In IndianaThe Mavs broke a negative spiral of ten consecutive losses. And the winger had a lot to do with this success, thanks to his best outing of the year.
« Chris has been an excellent scorer throughout his career. When he makes that move, the floor opens up for everyone, he cuts behind the defense, opens up threes. This opens the game. Opposing teams are much more difficult to stop », notes PJ Washington.
The Mavs are starting to realize that, having recovered the winger a few weeks ago as part of the Anthony Davis trade. Two days before this matchup against the Pacers, Khris Middleton had already scored 18 points against the Wolves in his first start with Jason Kidd.
In Indiana, he put on his scoring costume by stringing up 3-pointers or mid-range shots, where he remains a serious customer. ” First they defended me one on one. This allowed me to take the smaller defender into my favorite zone. Then they started throwing double grabs or coming to the rescue more aggressively, which forced me to play in a tight space. », deciphers the back.
“I’m not the type to jump high above the circle”
Despite defensive adjustments on the other end, the 34-year-old scored 25 points (11/15 shooting), along with 7 rebounds and 7 assists in 30 minutes. ” We don’t always realize how big it is. He can create space with his size in the mid-range game. He was always able to get his shot. And then there’s his playmaking ability, I found orchestrating the offense through him offered layups and shots wide open for others », referee Jason Kidd.
A good way to remember that his player, who has been losing momentum since being traded by the Bucks and whose career has been ravaged by injuries, averaged 20 points a few years ago.
« I’ve done it many times. I’m not the type to jump high above the circle “, reminds the veteran who will be a “free agent” next summer.
So we could put up baskets between now and the end of the season to show off, while giving Mavs fans some morale with a few wins. ” I wish we had gotten it before the (All-Star Game) break, but it’s the perfect time to win. Fortunately, we have finished this series. So hopefully we can start a winning streak now “, he hopes.
