Limiting Towns, the Pacers lack the No. 32 Lao Dai, the tough guy who fought against Sharks 6 times in the playoffs

What the Pacers lack now is a heavy inside line. Even if Towns starts from outside the three-point line, he can't rush Dell Davis!

Height 2 meters and weighs 113 kilograms, Indiana's number one inside coolie in the 1990s, he didn't talk much, and he was the one who fought all year round, such as O'Neal, Ewing, and Mourning. In the 1991 draft, Lao Dai was selected by the Pacers with the 11th pick in the first round. He was firmly the starting power forward the next year, making up for the white center Schmitz's unstable lower set and a soft style.

The best performance in his career in the third year, averaging 11.7 points, 10.5 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game, with a shooting percentage of 52%

This year, the Pacers were as good as a dog, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger all the way to the Eastern Conference Finals.

Sweeping Magic in the first round, Lao Dai bullied the young Sharks with his muscles and hard bones, averaged 11.3 points, 11 rebounds and 2.3 blocks per 36 minutes per game, with a shooting percentage of 65%

Lao Dai stayed with the Pacers for 9 years, working diligently and hardworking. In 2000, as an outstanding blue-collar representative, he was finally selected into the All-Star substitute by the head coaches. First, it was a commendation of his many years of achievements, and second, his toughness was needed to fight against the terrifying inside group of the Western Conference in the All-Star field.

In the 6th game of the Finals that year, Lao Dai scored 20 points, 14 rebounds and 3 blocks, setting the highest score in a single game in the playoffs! After the season ended, he was sent to the Trail Blazers in exchange for the young Olympian to solve the problem of aging team's lineup.

Later, it turned out that Portland's crazy hoarding of insiders was wrong. In 2003, he was sent to the Warriors in exchange for Fan Crazy.

In the 2004-05 season, he returned to the Pacers, but unfortunately he lost to the Pistons in the semi-finals. In the last two years of his career, he spent his life in the Pistons, pursuing his dream of winning, but unfortunately he stopped in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Lao Dai played against the Sharks six times in the playoffs, the first round in 1994, the Eastern Conference Finals in 1995, the 2000 Finals, the first round in 2001, the first round in 2002, and the Eastern Conference Finals in 2006.

, except in 1994, lost to O'Neal.
