The Godfather of Basketball - v2 Chapter 829
After winning their first home win, Green Army fans saw hope and became active again on social media.
“If you win another home game, you will be tied. The Boston tradition is not easily defeated. I believe this team can do it!”
“Pinyin, who changed the situation, let’s win the game with defensive defense again!”
“It is also 0-2, so let’s also finish a 4-0 sweep in the finals last year!”
…
There were only two days between Game 4 and Game 3. The Nets had less time to adjust than they did to the Celtics.
However, Tang Tian and the Nets coaching staff still made their adjustments.
Two days later, the fourth game continued at the North Shore Garden Arena.
The Nets withdrew Anthony on Mitchell, and set up a big and small team.
In the finals last year, the Nets relied on this lineup to equalize the Warriors. This is also their ultimate lineup.
Tang Tian put it out at this time, and also recognized the strength of the Celtics.
The game started in the cheers of the Green Army fans, but not long after the game began, this cheer gradually decreased. The Nets brought the Celtics to their own pace through a rapid offensive and defensive transition. among.
Irving and George’s breakthrough in offensive and defensive conversion weakened Zhou Qi’s defense ability, and the Celtics players could not keep up with the rhythm on the court.
This is also the choice, this season Stevens switched to a small lineup, aimed at the Nets ‘big four and the Warriors’ death five.
When the Nets expanded the score to 8-2, Stevens resolutely switched back to the smaller lineup.
As soon as the small lineup came up, Tatum and Hayward each scored a three-pointer, and the Celtics approached the score.
However, after two minutes of play, the situation returned to the Blue Nets. Although the Nets’ outside line is still not allowed, Jokic has a huge advantage against Horford in the post, or Stevens seems to have no choice. .
After all, Horford is not a defensive player like Green. With a loss in height and weight, it is a bit difficult for him to face Jokic.
However, because the Blue Nets still didn’t find the outside touch, the two teams finished the first quarter and the score on the court was 23 to 20. The Blue Nets were only leading by a slight advantage.
The fans at the scene continued to cheer. Following this momentum, the Celtics have great hopes of winning.
As soon as the second quarter came up, both teams made a pure substitute lineup.
Nets side Murray, Wade, Kuzma, Anthony and Yi Jianlian.
On the Celtics side, Smart, Brown, Morris, Zhou Qi and Baynes.
The Nets attacked the frontcourt, and Kuzma and Anthony ran around the screen.
In a bump, Kuzma went outside to receive Wade’s pass, but the three-pointer came out of the basket.
At this moment, Tang Tian, who has been observing, can see the reason for the poor feel of the Nets’ outside line.
This is a very fine adjustment, and you can’t feel it without looking carefully.
After returning to Boston in the game, the Celtics significantly increased physical confrontation.
This physical confrontation is not only for the players with the ball, but also when defending without the ball. This is equivalent to consuming the physical strength of the Nets players every minute and second, making them feel uncomfortable, and even when necessary. There will be many hidden small actions.
The referees have a more or less bias towards the home team at home, and the Celtics make good use of it.
Zhou Qi made three-pointers in the perimeter, and the Celtics tied the score not long after the opening of this quarter.
Tang Tian got up at this time and made new tactical gestures to the players, allowing them to go more into the basket.
Mitchell’s possession in the frontcourt, when signalling Yi Jianlian to play screens, also signaled Anthony to pull Zhou Qi out of the three-point line.
With the experience of the last game, the Nets players recognized Zhou Qi’s defensive ability.
After pulling away, Mitchell misplaced and burst into Baynes, killing the emergency stop free throws from the free throw line.
Although Baines is only 2 meters in height, but weighs 118 kilograms, it is a heavy center, and the flexibility is still a lot worse than Zhou Qi. Mitchell’s sudden stop is a bit out of pace.
“Oh!”
Mitchell’s shooting is more stable than last season, and the ball is steadily advanced.
The Nets overtake the score again.
Smart made a breakthrough in the frontcourt before giving Zhou Qi, Zhou Qi made a three-pointer to return to Anthony!
This is the height and long arms, and ignore the little melon!
Cheers broke out at the scene.
Zhou Qi showed his defensive ability in the last game, which directly soared by three points. The lottery of the Celtics two years ago was definitely a profit!
With this three-pointer, the Celtics went ahead again!
Mitchell looked for Yi Jianlian’s pick-and-roll in the frontcourt. Smart was grabbing it, but Yi Jianlian moved quickly and stuck him directly. Mitchell successfully misplaced him and met Baynes.
This time it was a change of direction, and Baines couldn’t keep up.
But just as Mitchell shot, a figure came over him.
It’s Zhou Qi!
He chose to defend this time.
Zhou Qi’s wingspan is 2.33 meters, which belongs to the top class in the NBA. This long arm cover is really covering the sky.
However, Mitchell has clearly improved his passing awareness and ability this season. The moment he saw Zhou Qi in the air, he had thrown the ball to the bottom corner.
Anthony stood there without moving.
The ball flew straight. After receiving the ball, he glanced at the frame and then shot.
“Oh!”
Three-pointers also scored!
answerball!
There was a restlessness at the scene, and this three-pointer reminded them of the 20+ consecutive performances of the first two games of the Anthony Series.
Smart asked Zhou Qi again. This time Zhou Qi was stared to death. There was no chance. The ball finally came to Morris’ hands. Morris turned and hit Kuzma, but turned and hit Anthony and was shot.
Mitchell pushed the ball directly and counterattacked, and Smart strove for defense behind him.
Smart’s offense is A- or even B-level, but the defense is S-level, which forced Mitchell to have little chance.
However, Mitchell saw Kuzma following up in the middle of the break and shook his hand to pass back.
Kuzma catches the ball and sees Zhou Qi flying over, and then Anthony ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Anthony who catches the ball and goes one step beyond the three-point line to chase and pull.
“Oh!”
It was a crisp sound again. Anthony made three consecutive points and scored!
The scene was restless.
These two three-pointers are a little morale-damaging!
Stevens also got up and walked to the sideline, signaled Zhou Qi to pay attention to his defender.
Morris hit Yi Jianlian in the frontcourt attack, and the Nets made another fast break. Mitchell rushed into the basket together, avoiding Smart’s defensive shot, but Anthony followed up. After grabbing the offensive rebound, Zhou Qi was shaken by a fake shot, and then turned around and wiped the ball to send the ball into Zhou Qi’s hitter!
Stevens called for a timeout.
Anthony scored 8 points in a row, helping the Nets pull the score again.
Although the little melon is a little older, he is obviously sweet!
