The Basketball Court Swordsman

Chapter 214: : The undead giant

In the eighth minute of the first quarter, the Celtics have gone from 3 goals in a row to 6 points behind. Pierce watched Henson switch to Leonard, the "gibbons" that made countless number three stars painful this season.

He is full of energy, expressionless, and will definitely complete the task assigned to him by the Chinese coach. Pierce sighed, "Torture King" took himself as his main goal today.

The entire first quarter of the game was a disaster for the Celtics. After Garnett's three consecutive offensive successes just after the opening, the Celtics' offense has fallen into a backwater.

When Garnett started not scoring goals and Pierce and Ray Allen could not get space, the Celtics' offense was undoubtedly very bad.

Rondo? "Thanks" to his actions that angered Paul, the Green Army master was strictly guarded by Paul, and there was no chance of getting points. Rondo is not a scoring point guard at all, and when he encounters Paul's defense, he can't score.

Ray Allen finally scored today's first goal at 6 minutes and 34 seconds of the first quarter, and Pierce failed to score in the sports game until the end of the first quarter. 4 points, all from free throws. From Danny Green to Leonard, Pierce feels like he has encountered the biggest challenge so far this year's playoffs.

There is no room for shots and no room for breakthrough. Under the rough defense of the opponent, Pierce felt that his skills could not be used. He was a little frustrated, and the feeling of powerlessness against the Pacers during the regular season spread throughout his body again.

18 to 28, the Boston Celtics trailed by 10 points in the first quarter of the Conseco Arena and fell into a hard fight!

"Fuck, we need to be more decisive!" Ray Allen yelled as soon as he sat down. He no longer cares about his relationship with this group of people, because he doesn't even know if he will be in the next season. Sit here.

But as a professional basketball player, he really can't stand the team playing so frustrated and there is no way.

"What are you hesitating? Do you have to have a big open space? I tell you, opponents Indiana Pacers, you better forget the wonderful big open space when you beat the Eagles! It's impossible for Henson Joe to give us an open space. , What we have to do is **** decisive, this is a tough battle!" After roaring, Ray Allen waved his hand and didn't speak again.

Ray Allen was not a talkative person at first, he was really aggrieved just now, so he said a few more words.

"Okay, okay, don't be discouraged. We did not play well in the first quarter, but fortunately, we still have three full quarters to make up for all this..."

Rivers began arranging the tactics for the second quarter. On the other side, Henson was also busy.

"The defense in the first quarter was very good. It would be perfect if the defense could be changed more decisively! But don't think that this game is already a win. I used my suit to bet on the bad slippers under Stephenson's locker. The Celtics will definitely launch a pounce! They are a team that has just won the championship in 5 years and the core lineup has not changed. Don't think that you can defeat them so easily!"

Henson did not make tactical adjustments, but reminded everyone that the battle is far from over!

In the first round, the Celtics faced a similar situation countless times. But the result? It was the Atlanta Hawks who lost the game!

The resilience of the Celtics is amazing. Garnett, Ray Allen and Pierce are all players who will never stop without losing the last drop of blood in the playoffs.

In the 6 games between the Celtics and the Hawks, three of them were reversed when they fell behind at halftime! In one of them, the Celtics even fell behind by as much as 15 points at halftime!

The old guys know that this may be their last chance to hit the championship together, so they all cherish it.

Now, the Pacers only lead by 10 points in the first quarter, far from victory!

At the beginning, when Garnett scored consecutive goals, Henson didn't rush. Now the Pacers lead the Celtics by 10 points, and Henson is not surprised. He changed, became more irritable, but also more stable. He is irritable because he is more irritable than before, and he likes to fight with reporters more than before. But in the face of the game, Vogel must admit that Henson is much more stable than last season.

The assistant teacher on the side smiled, this guy can succeed, but there is no reason.

After the start of the second quarter, the Celtics did not play Pierce. Maybe it was because Pierce was in a bad state, maybe because Pierce played 10 minutes in the first quarter. For whatever reason, Rivers does not intend to let the "truth" go back so quickly.

Rivers replaced Pierce with second-year guard Avery Bradley, Bradley and Rondo formed a double point guard lineup, and Ray Allen topped the third position.

Bradley's performance this season is still very good, because Rondo and Allen have been absent for a long time, Bradley has got many opportunities to show himself. In the last month of the regular season, the small guard averaged 15.2 points per game, which undoubtedly impressed Rivers.

So much so that in the last round of the series, he even replaced Ray Allen's starting position. Although Ray Allen's playing time is still longer than Bradley, even if he is just a fake starter, he must have this ability.

Ray Allen is gearing his hands, he really can't stand the chirping style of these guys. Now that there are two point guards present, Ray Allen's mission is crazy long-range shooting!

On the first goal of the opening, Paul's shot was interfered by the Celtics. This time, it wasn't Rondo who interfered with him, because Paul had already taken a pick and roll to get Rondo clean. It was Bradley who interfered with Paul!

In college, Bradley was a very good perimeter defender. When he was still in the NCAA, many experts claimed, "He has been able to defend NBA-level guards."

This time, Bradley's excellent defensive awareness was shown. His fill-in was very decisive and proved to be very effective. The Pacers' offense failed, and the 10-point difference remained.

After the Celtics played, George found that the veteran shooter in front of him seemed to be much more active than in the first quarter. Ray Allen ran tirelessly without the ball, looking for opportunities, as if he had completely forgotten the tingling in his feet.

Subsequently, Allen and Garnett made a ball-free screen match very skillfully. George was delayed and Ray Allen shot after receiving the ball!

This is of course not a completely open space, because George's length and wingspan allows him to be blocked by screens, but he can still interfere with Ray Allen's shooting. But as Ray Allen just said, in the face of the Pacers, don't think about that kind of big empty opportunity!

"Swipe!" Ray Allen hit a three-pointer, which was his second three-pointer in the game!

"Pretty, Ray Allen seems to have regained consciousness and used a three-pointer to help the Celtics open up the situation! This is the game the Big Three should have!"

"Damn, what am I talking about? These old guys!" Henson spit at Vogel. George actually defended the goal very hard just now, but Ray Allen can make it. The resilience of the Celtics!

Subsequently, Garnett succeeded in the mid-range "iron and blood jump shot". Counting the 8 points in the first quarter of the game, Garnett has 10 points recorded today. It seems that this will be another high-scoring game for Garnett.

With a three-pointer and a mid-range shot, the Celtics instantly reduced the difference to 5 points! Henson got up from the bench again before his **** was hot.

In the first quarter, Henson's legs were a bit sore. I thought I could take a break after leading by 10 points, but now it seems that Henson is dead.

After that, the Celtics' state gradually recovered. Not only the offense, but also the defensive end did better than the first quarter.

Walkers bloom more? The Celtics responded with active defense.

Seeing the teammates on the field and the Pacers playing inextricably, Pierce also clenched his fists.

Every day in the Celtics, when he walked into the arena and saw the retired jersey numbers on the North Shore Garden Dome, Pierce also hoped that one day, his jersey could also be placed on it. This is a kind of pressure, but also a kind of motivation. And the situation at this time undoubtedly made this the strongest motivation for Pierce!

My teammates are already fighting the enemy courageously. As a "green man", as a player who is eager to retire in the Celtics, how can I watch the fire from the other side?

"Paul, go to the technical station!" Rivers seemed to see through Pierce's mind, and at this point, he took the "truth" back up.

So after that, the Big Three reorganized and the Pacers experienced a difficult game!

Pierce turned his back on a jumper, leaving Green feeling desperate after doing his best.

Garnett cut into the dunk, as if returning to his time in Minnesota.

Ray Allen scored the third three-pointer in this quarter, making the score even closer!

The Big Three survived, and after the trough of the first quarter, they bottomed out!

Garnett’s tenacity, Ray Allen’s anger, and Pierce’s unwillingness. The three old guys, all over 100 years old, carried what seemed to be dilapidated giants and told everyone: "We are still here to fight for the championship. "!

Although Henson had expected this a long time ago, he still inevitably cursed because of the Celtics' sudden magic. Their spirit cannot be beaten to death, so never expect the Celtics to crash early.

Fortunately, the Pacers' own offense stabilized. Paul's strong field control ability did not allow the Pacers to be defeated by the awakening of the Big Three.

After halftime, the score became 47 to 42. The Pacers only led the Celtics by 5 points, Garnett had 14 points in the half, Pierce had 9 points in the half, Ray Allen had 13 points in the half...

Henson rejected the reporter who came up to interview him, frowned and walked directly into the player tunnel. It can be seen that Henson is in a bad mood at this time. Some teams, some players, are so magical that you feel unfair.

"FvckCeltics!" Vogel only heard Henson cursing softly.
