NBA: No. 1 Forward

After Pierce scored, he also looked at Lian Dao, and Lian Dao knew what it meant. \u003c/p\u003e

However, Lian Dao did not forcefully find his way back. \u003c/p\u003e

Break through Pierce, attract Jeff Green to double-team, and pass the ball to the open Stoudemire. \u003c/p\u003e

Cousins ​​put Garnett high and Stoudemire scored an easy layup. \u003c/p\u003e

Afterwards, during the Celtics' offense, Pierce's shot was interfered by Lian Dao and missed, and the rebound was accepted by Stoudemire. \u003c/p\u003e

Then it was passed to Lian Dao, Lian Dao continued to do the same, and Stoudemire easily scored again. \u003c/p\u003e

This time, Rivers was a little anxious. \u003c/p\u003e

"Kevin, guard the basket!"\u003c/p\u003e

Garnett nodded. Without him in the paint, the Celtics' ability to protect the frame dropped by a notch. \u003c/p\u003e

But then Cousins ​​received a pass from Stoudemire in the high position, and after hitting two mid-range shots in a row, Rivers had to call a timeout. \u003c/p\u003e

Their tactics have been cracked by the Knicks. \u003c/p\u003e

But because Jeff Green and Paul Pierce double-teamed Lian Dao in the first quarter, Rivers wanted to try this lineup again. \u003c/p\u003e

But what brought the Celtics next was the entire second quarter. Stoudemire scored 14 points and Cousins ​​also scored 8 points. \u003c/p\u003e

Halftime ends, Knicks 56:50.\u003c/p\u003e

Leading the Celtics by 6 points ended the first half. \u003c/p\u003e

"The Knicks found a way to target the Celtics very quickly. They underestimated Sickle's passing ability, and at the same time underestimated the strength of other Knicks players."\u003c/p\u003e

"Although the height of the Knicks inside is not enough, the strength of the players is very good, especially their inside lineup is very strong, Amare, DeMarcus, Millsap, David Lee, Rasheed Wallace !”\u003c/p\u003e

"This lineup ensures that the Knicks can have a healthy and reasonable rotation,

In comparison, the Celtics' inside rotation is relatively poor..."\u003c/p\u003e

During the intermission, Kenny Smith and Barkley analyzed the field situation in the first half. \u003c/p\u003e

In the second half, Rivers finally took Jeff Green off the court and replaced him with the previous starting lineup. \u003c/p\u003e

Originally thought that the Celtics would gradually lose like the last game, but Lian Dao underestimated this group of veterans. \u003c/p\u003e

When Ray Allen was restricted by Tony Allen's death entanglement, and when Garnett was strictly guarded by Stoudemire inside, Paul Pierce, one of the Big Three, finally stood up. \u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao's defense did not have any problems, but Pierce's mid-range shot in the third quarter was really unsolvable. \u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao sealed his hands on Pierce's face, and Pierce's shooting posture was deformed, but he was still able to throw this fairy ball. \u003c/p\u003e

Facing Pierce who has entered the state, Lian Dao can only be stronger than him on the offensive end. \u003c/p\u003e

Stoudemire's high pick-and-roll, after Lian Dao got rid of Pierce, hit a super long three-pointer; accelerated to break through the defense, went inside and double-teamed Pierce and Garnett and scored a fadeaway jumper; played Pierce with his back, turned around and went to the basket , in Garnett and Jermaine O'Neal's supplementary defense, the extreme pull rod scored...\u003c/p\u003e

The entire third quarter became a duel between Lian Dao and Pierce at the third position. \u003c/p\u003e

This kind of confrontation lasted until the last five minutes of the fourth quarter. When Pierce used Garnett to pick and roll and hit a three-pointer from the outside to let the Celtics tie the score again, D'Antoni called a timeout. He didn't want to fight like this again. The Celtics entangled. \u003c/p\u003e

"Beautiful three-pointer, Paul's game is really a dream to return to the peak, starting from the second half, Paul's performance on the offensive end is too perfect."\u003c/p\u003e

"He deserves to be called an offensive kaleidoscope. He is technically impeccable. The most important thing is that Paul's shot selection is very smart, and he always seeks the best shot in the rhythm every time."\u003c/p\u003e

"The Celtics gave me too many surprises in this game. From Jeff Green and Garnett in the first half to Paul Pierce in the second half, the Celtics showed tactical quality and game status. It was the best game since the playoffs!"\u003c/p\u003e

Although Kenny Smith is also inclined to the Knicks in his heart, he must admit that he is really fancied by the performance of the Celtics today. \u003c/p\u003e

During the timeout, the camera showed Lian Dao and Pierce a sub-shot. \u003c/p\u003e

And a data comparison is made below. \u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao currently has 30 points, 8 rebounds and 13 assists, and Pierce has 34 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. \u003c/p\u003e

From the overall data, Lian Dao is better, but if you only look at the data in the second half, Pierce is actually better. \u003c/p\u003e

Even Lian Dao had to admit that in the second half, he did not restrain the explosive Pierce. \u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao was also very unwilling. When he thought that he would be suppressed by a 33-year-old guy who was at the end of his career, Lian Dao would feel extremely unwilling. \u003c/p\u003e

"In the last five minutes, we must ensure the offensive efficiency! Sickle, now focus on you, Amare, DeMarcus will give Sickle more cover! In the last five minutes, everyone must do their final defense!"\u003c /p\u003e

D'Antoni knew that only when Lian Dao, the offensive core, broke out at the critical moment, could he win the game with confidence. \u003c/p\u003e

D'Antoni believes that Lian Dao's performance at critical moments is not comparable to the current Paul Pierce. \u003c/p\u003e

If it was Pierce when he was young, D'Antoni really looked back on Pierce's persistent explosive power. \u003c/p\u003e

But this is the 33-year-old Pierce, and the Knicks may be in trouble when he is in full swing, but D'Antoni clearly found that after entering the fourth quarter, Pierce's offensive posture has dropped a lot. \u003c/p\u003e

If it is not a weakening of momentum, it is a physical crisis that leads to a drop in hit rate. \u003c/p\u003e

Either of these two could turn the tide of a game at a critical moment. \u003c/p\u003e

After returning from the timeout, the Celtics replaced the entire starting lineup, and Rajon Rondo and O'Neal, who had just gone to rest, had all returned at this time. \u003c/p\u003e

On the Knicks side, they also brought Cousins, Holiday and Tony Allen back to the court. \u003c/p\u003e

Both sides put on a posture of the final battle, and the last five minutes are also the decisive moment! \u003c/p\u003e

Pierce's playing time in this game is directly off the charts. So far, like Lian Dao, he has not had a minute of rest in the game. \u003c/p\u003e

From the way he was sweating profusely and panting like a cow, you can see how tired this old guy is from playing today. \u003c/p\u003e

Under normal circumstances, Pierce rarely played more than 35 minutes, after all, he was old. \u003c/p\u003e

Although they are the main force of the Celtics, in order to keep the team healthy, like Garnett, Pierce and Ray Allen, their playing time will not exceed 35 minutes in the regular season. \u003c/p\u003e

Even the playoffs are basically kept at about 40 minutes, but today Pierce played the whole game. \u003c/p\u003e

\u003ca href="http://m." id="wzsy"\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e

It is that Lian Dao has felt insufficient physical fitness so far, let alone the 33-year-old Pierce. \u003c/p\u003e

Pierce gasped and walked onto the court. \u003c/p\u003e

Although he was already feeling very tired, the final five minutes was when the outcome would be decided, and Pierce would never give up at this time. \u003c/p\u003e

Seeing Lian Dao still running tirelessly, Pierce couldn't help swallowing. \u003c/p\u003e

What a fucking animal, it can still be alive and kicking at this time! \u003c/p\u003e

Pierce struggled to catch up, but was blocked by Stoudemire on the outside. \u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao immediately received the pass, Pierce struggled to squeeze Stoudemire away, and when Lian Dao was about to make a shot, he completed the replacement. \u003c/p\u003e

But Stoudemire then blocked Pierce again in the second pick-and-roll, and Lian Dao accelerated to the basket and threw a shot. \u003c/p\u003e

In the next second, O'Neal quickly caught up. \u003c/p\u003e

But Lian Dao has already completed the shot one step ahead. \u003c/p\u003e

"Sickle scored first, and Garnett was blocked by Cousins' cover. The Knicks currently have a two-point lead. At the critical moment of the game, let us see if victory can finally dominate the game."\u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao easily scored the ball, but Pierce was panting from exhaustion. \u003c/p\u003e

Lian Dao's running position is not too fast, the purpose is to consume Pierce's physical energy. At the same time, Lian Dao uses the cover of his teammates to minimize the difficulty of breaking through, thereby reducing the consumption of physical energy. \u003c/p\u003e

In the next round, Pierce was pressed by Lian Dao from beyond the three-point line. \u003c/p\u003e

Garnett mentioned the high screen, but was immediately squeezed away by Lian Dao and returned to Pierce. \u003c/p\u003e

Several high screens in succession were fruitless. Pierce wanted to pass the ball, but found that the rest of the Celtics were stuck tightly, and the Knicks completely cut off his passing route. \u003c/p\u003e

The previous pick-and-roll screens consumed a lot of time, but now that the attack time is approaching, there is no longer any hesitation. \u003c/p\u003e

Helpless, he could only choose singles again. \u003c/p\u003e
