Build a Dream Dynasty

Chapter 95: young battlefield

In the first half of the quarter, the two teams had a very high attack success rate. At least in terms of hit rate, the two teams were similar, but from the perspective of the score, the Nets temporarily led by 19 to 15 by 4 points. The reason is very simple. The team took advantage of Carter's range and footwork over Glen Davis to hit two 3-pointers.

Although there is a balance of power on the whole, Jiang Mingliang can see that the rhythm of the game is actually in the hands of the Nets. The speed of offense and defense transition between the two sides is accelerated, which is undoubtedly more beneficial to the Nets.

During the timeout, Rivers repeatedly told Rondo to keep the rhythm of the game down. The Celtics, who built a team around defense, did not need to run wildly with the Nets, and made substitution adjustments at the same time. O'Neal took the place. Len Davis arrives.

In the past two games, for the sake of preserving the strength of the veteran, the Celtics generally replaced Garnett first and then let Glen Davis rest. However, this game was still behind, and Glen Davis was deliberately targeted by the Nets, forcing the Celtics to change their original rotation plan.

For the Nets' small lineup, it must be targeted from the offensive end. One-time All-Star power forward O'Neal Jr.'s arsenal is richer than Glen Davis's. On the defensive end, O'Neal stood on the inside, and Garnett could go out to fill up properly without worrying about a vacuum in the inside and being used by Bledsoe and George.

This adjustment of Rivers received obvious results. In two minutes, the Celtics beat the Nets with a 6;2 to tie the score.

Taking advantage of the dead ball, Stevens had to make a substitution adjustment, Whiteside came on, and Korver came off.

In the three attacks in the past two minutes, Korver made a three-pointer and a long-range two-pointer, but none of them hit. So far in the first quarter, Korver's 0-for-4 shooting rate is really not good.

Not only this game, but throughout the series, Korver was in no state under the restrictions of Ray Allen. In the regular season, Korver averaged 11.2 points per game and shot 41% of his three-pointers in the playoffs. Completely evaporated, leaving only a body that cannot be thrown in and cannot be defended. There is no doubt that Korver can't afford the Nets' starting shooting guard position in the playoffs.

It turns out that Stevens was absolutely right about Whiteside. A notable characteristic of this potential big man is his emotionality. When he's in high spirits, it's not a coincidence that a single quarter or two doubles is a headless fly.

How to keep his mood high, Stevens's choice is to let him play against the opponent's bench players first, give him enough psychological hints, and then challenge the opponent's starter.

In the face of Garnett, who has suffered serious physical loss, and O'Neal, who has not been as good as before because of consecutive injuries, Whiteside showed the courage of a new born calf and is not afraid of tigers. His debut brought a different situation to the Nets. If Garnett, who is full of stamina, is the point that the Nets can't deal with, then Stevens' Tianji horse and the crazy physique of the Whiteside people also really make the Celtics feel uncomfortable.

Pick melons from the top of Garnett's head, followed by a make-up deduction. Whiteside's performance ignited the fans in the audience, and even more attracted Garnett to elbow in the next round of offense and received a physical foul.

That is to say, Garnett has a lot of face. If it is replaced by someone else, he will be invited directly. Seeing this, Rivers quickly replaced Garnett to prevent him from making a stronger response, while also allowing the veteran to get some rest time.

At the end of the first quarter, the Nets led by four points at 29:25.

The fantasy drifting on the big white side continued in the second quarter. The Celtics lost Perkins one after another, and O'Neal's shortcomings began to manifest. Garnett was not present, and none of the remaining three could solve Whiteside's point. , watching the performance of this second-round pick in dominating the rebound, can't help but sound the red-haired power forward in the comics. George, Bledsoe and other outside players have not enjoyed the feeling of partnering with super inside players for a season, and they really experienced it in the second quarter.

This taste is super cool!

After a 12-0 attack wave, the Nets widened the point difference to 19 points. It seems that the Nets have mastered the absolute initiative.

However, during the pause, Stevens kept reminding his players to stay calm.

"In the 2008 Finals, the Lakers had such a big lead, but the Celtics were able to make a comeback. Don't underestimate the toughness of these veterans!" Stevens shouted hoarsely. At this moment, I don't care about the image at all.

Although the young people in the team have different positions and play styles, there are not a few Kobe fans, and they are all impressed by the Celtics' epic comeback in Game 4 of the 2008 Finals.

"Don't think that we are young and have a future. If we can't grasp the present well, how can we imagine your future!"

Teams swept in the playoffs don't deserve to talk about the future!

The reason why I am so nervous about this game~www.novelmt.com~ is because Stevens can see that if they lose this game today, the Nets will really be swept away. Even pessimistically speaking, Stevens has noticed that this game may be the only game the Nets have hope of winning in the playoffs this year.

Korver and Anderson's playoff performances proved that they are only regular-season players and are absolutely unreliable in the playoffs. The loss of Lopez's injured team is not just a starting center, Bledsoe and George are all too young.

Sure enough, in the third game, the Celtics began to fight back frantically. Unlike other teams, when they were behind by a large score, they tried to send players with strong scoring ability to play to chase points. The Celtics still chased points from the defensive end. On the offensive end, it is also fully executed according to the tactics, and the time consumed by each attack is close to 20 seconds.

Pierce took the dominance of the ball from Rondo. Although Rondo is known for his arrogance, but facing Garnett and Pierce, he did not dare to make a mistake anyway. Under Pierce's rhythm control, The Celtics' shooting percentage on offense has improved, and on the defensive end, Pierce continued to stalk George, making the super rookie very uncomfortable.

Compared with Garnett, who supports the entire team's defensive system, he has to devote himself to the game for a long time. Pierce has more opportunities to stay in the game. When he needs to play, he never lets people play. Disappointed.

Fallback jumper, long-range three-point shot, half-push and half-rolled to the inside layup, turnaround shot after post-up singles. Putting aside the gap on the ass, in terms of offensive methods alone, Pierce is really not as good as Anthony.

In the third quarter, the Celtics brought the difference back by 12 points, and the difference was pulled back to single digits.
