All I Really Want Is To Play Basketball Chapter 303: When breaking the formation, the most powerful brain
On the evening of the 3rd, North Shore Garden Arena.
The Celtics, who were driven to the edge of the cliff by the Raptors, fight their backs tonight.
In the NBA, even in the future, no team has ever completed a comeback with a 0-3 lag.
So, before the start of this game, even without Auerbach's reminder, the Celtics all know that losing the G3 game is equivalent to losing the entire series.
Unlike the previous two games, Davis took the initiative to adjust the Raptors' starting lineup tonight.
Nash is back in the starting lineup, and Tracy McGrady is back on the bench.
Before the game, on the Celtics bench, when they noticed that the Raptors had changed the starting lineup, this time, even if Miller Carr wanted to break his head, for a while...
He didn't want to understand why Davis made this arrangement.
Think about what John would do?
But I can’t understand how I think about it.
On the court, after the players of the two teams warmed up, in the middle of the court, Duncan and Big Ben jumped the ball to start the game.
In the first two battles, Duncan was beaten bald by Duncan. At this moment, facing the giant Duncan, he was unable to give full play to his advantage in deterrence.
Duncan calmly jumped the first offense for the Celtics.
Marbury "steadily" dribbled the ball through the half court amidst the cheers of the fans.
Because the Celtics’ home floor was changed in a hurry this time, even the Celtics’ own players can’t do it, and they are fully aware of where the “floor of honor” is buried.
So, instead of saying that Marbury's dribble is very stable, it is better to say that he is afraid of being pitted by his own floor.
In order to defeat the Raptors, Auerbach racked his brains in this round of the Eastern Conference Finals.
In the desperate situation, the "Cardinal" even used the big trick of Seven Injury Fist.
However, although Celtics players cannot guarantee that they will not be pitted by their own floor, but compared to the Raptors who rely more on outside play...
The Celtics who own Duncan can indeed eliminate this environmental impact to a certain extent by playing high.
Before the game, Su Feng found out when he was warming up...
The location where the Celtic mines are buried is very chicken thieves.
Because the restricted areas on both sides of the court happen to be areas without "mines".
The Celtics hit the first offense. After Marbury passed the ball to Bowen on the wing, the latter dropped the ball directly inside.
With Duncan's unpretentious combination of punches, as in the previous two battles, Big Ben still has no temper for this kind of offense by the teenager Duncan.
0 to 2.
Because the Nets were tightened tonight, after Duncan scored this ball, the Raptors couldn't make a quick baseline shot in the first time.
At this time, Karl was even more puzzled as to why Davis would put Nash in the starting lineup.
Because in Karl's opinion...
If you can't play fast break, Nash's role on the court is unlikely to be as big as McGrady.
But soon, Karl will know why Davis did this.
The Raptors first attacked, and Su Feng, who could not get the ball in the low position for the first time, directly used Big Ben's screen to run back from the bottom line to the high position.
His position successfully disrupted the Celtics' defensive position.
At the moment when Marbury's attention was also attracted by Su Feng, Nash, who had been shooting the ball in the "safe area", suddenly pulled out the green onions on the dry land and completed a quick shot.
Why——!
3 to 2.
Different from the previous organizational tasks that needed to be undertaken by the team, tonight, Nash, who started on the field, received only one instruction.
That is, whenever, wherever.
As long as Nash thinks he can shoot, he can fire at will.
Because the Celtics have a lot of minefields on the floor at home, players who are good at breaking through and need to rely on a dribble to complete the offense will suffer.
So, under Su Feng's suggestion, Davis quickly found the right way to deal with it.
In the case of reducing singles, increase the movement of players without the ball.
In addition, players with the ball take a more simple and rude way to complete the offense in the game.
In this way, the influence of the Celtics' "floor of honor" on the Raptors will be very limited.
Of course, as the godfather of basketball, Davis has more than that.
On the court, after the Celtics also scored their second offense, it was the Raptors' turn to attack.
And this time, when Carter grabbed the mobile phone meeting with the help of cover on the flanks, this UFO, like Nash just now, also decisively fired quickly from the outside.
When--!
At the moment Carter took the shot, Big Ben, Jordan, and Su Feng had already entered the Celtics' penalty area.
Twisting loose the basket will indeed change the trajectory of the rebound to a certain extent, but...
The same problem.
In a short period of time, even the Celtics' own players cannot fully grasp this change in trajectory.
Therefore, the second arrangement of Davis tonight is to make the Raptors with three-point shooting ability make the three-pointer the team's first offensive option.
Under normal circumstances, in order to prevent counterattacks from opponents, in past games, although the Raptors will make some unreasonable three-pointers by someone, but in most cases, their three-pointers did not shoot The future is so exaggerated.
But tonight is different.
Even if the Raptors made a very unscientific three-pointer tonight, they don't have to worry about being hit by the opponent directly.
Because in the case of shooting, the Nets will be introduced tonight, the Raptors can't make a quick baseline, and the Celtics can't make a quick baseline.
With the restrictions of the floor, it is impossible for the Celtics to force a fast break tonight.
As for not investing?
What does that matter?
On the court, Su Feng, who saw the basketball falling in the direction of his rush, took the ball directly into his arms with one hand in the air.
And then, Su Feng, who grabbed the rebound, flicked the ball toward the outside line, and Nash finished the shot again from the three-point line.
Why——!
6 to 4.
First of all, in the case of failing to make a shot, the Raptors can use aggressive rushing to grab a second offense.
Because even if the Celtics twist the basket loose, the trajectory of the three-point shot is different from the mid-range shot, and it will only be more difficult.
Secondly, three-pointers are definitely more cost-effective than two-pointers.
So, playing in the specific environment of the Celtics home court tonight, in Su Feng's view, it is not too suitable for the Raptors to play shooting and grab tactics.
Anyway, if you get it right, take your opponent away.
And if there are dozens of consecutive irons like a certain team in the future, that would be...
Bad life!
On the Celtics bench, when noticing the resolute attitude of the Raptors when shooting three-pointers...
Suddenly Auerbach felt that the times had changed.
Yes, it's different now...
Before, no one liked to shoot three-pointers.
So these little details can determine the success or failure of the game.
But now, with the increasing weight of three-pointers in modern basketball, the shackles created by the Celtics tonight for the Raptors, in turn, have created objective conditions for the Raptors to find another way.
"Miller, although I don't like three-pointers, this summer, you have to work harder on three-pointers."
At this moment, Auerbach patted his disciple on the shoulder while looking at the dome of the North Shore Garden Arena.
And when he heard that, Carl couldn't help looking at the "fat man" next door while nodding his head.
John, is this why you can tune this Raptors so well?
Ah...
Aqian--!
On the Raptors bench, Davis suddenly sneezed, feeling that someone was talking about him.
I don't know why. Davis has always felt that some people are always talking bad about himself behind his back recently.
On the court, when the Celtics failed to open up the Raptors, the Raptors' side, that unreasonable three-pointer...
Here again!
Tonight, Su Feng, who changed from inside melee to outside drag racing, after receiving Nash’s pass, he didn’t care if there was anyone in front of him, anyway...
Raise your hand and let's do a quick shot!
Why——!
Then, Su Feng, who was close to the Nets, dropped this three-pointer into the net.
9 to 4.
In front of the TV, for fans who are tired of watching the defensive battle, although the Raptors have not performed their best air pick tonight, let alone this kind of three-point shooting, it looks pretty good. Enjoyable.
At the scene, Celtics fans felt that the Raptors were deliberately showing off their skills.
In this era, three-point throwing tactics like this are really rare.
In the commentary, the commentators of major TV stations in North America did not know how to explain the game for a while.
On the field, the game continues.
Because the Raptors are very accurate in three-pointers tonight, the pressure on the Celtics' shoulders on both ends of the offense and defense has increased invisibly.
Su Feng's previous life, the Warriors' Xia Jiba often took away the opponent in one wave, because of the continuous three-pointers, it is easy to directly defeat the opponent psychologically.
Many times, the Warriors' opponents are not so much defeated by the Warriors' three-pointers as they are defeated because of chaos.
Although the Celtics are well-trained, they will also panic in the face of the Raptors' style of play that has led the era for nearly 15 years.
After all...
The players are also human.
In the first quarter of the game, the Raptors who have been full of confidence recently, in addition to a North Carolina student and North Carolina senior, even the old Curry who replaced Carter in the second half of the first quarter voted high.
No way, although Carter accepted the tutoring of Curry last summer, he obviously hasn't gotten home for this kind of quick shot after receiving the ball.
Here, Nash is very accurate.
Because in order to steal meat from the big brothers, the ghost knows how much Nash cherishes the opportunity to open fire like tonight.
In the first quarter, the Raptors made 18 shots from beyond the three-point line.
Among them, Su Feng dumped 8 times alone.
You know, even in the future, this data is absolutely crazy.
They fired endlessly under the HC rules and hit 9 three-pointers in the first quarter, which directly destroyed Auerbach's idea of relying on the "decoration" of the home court to connect the two cities.
In the second quarter, Jordan, who sat back on the bench, couldn't help but also remembered the scene of the Bulls being eliminated by the 76ers.
In that game, if Jordan remembers correctly, Su Feng made 20 three-pointers.
For many old-school NBA players, three-pointers are a cowardly choice in their eyes.
However, this season, after following the Raptors all the way down, Jordan discovered that sometimes players choose to shoot three-pointers on the court, but it takes more courage than to shoot.
Looking at this group of gazes on the court, a teammate who is more determined than the other, Jordan is very clear that a new era...
It has come quietly.
In the second quarter, the Raptors' three-point shots were limited to a certain extent when the Celtics expanded their defenses wildly.
In this era with HC rules and tough defense, if the Raptors weren't being a player in the first quarter, and the Celtics were disrupted, the three-pointer would not be as good as the future.
However, because the Celtics' defenses expanded wildly, their insides naturally appeared empty.
Result...
Su Feng circumvented the operation of landmines again and again, and directly stunned Auerbach and Millerkar on the sidelines.
In order to prevent Su Feng's instant attack, Bowen had to choose to be intimately entangled with Su Feng in the second quarter.
However, under this kind of defense, Su Feng doesn't mention how easy it is to get an easy breakthrough.
And every time Bowen follows Su Feng, praying that Su Feng will step on thunder next...
Bowen was surprised to find that every time Su Feng could use his weird snake-like breakthrough to circumvent the "floor of honor" of the Celtics home court.
This...
Is this the strength of the regular season MVP?
The Bowen is stupid.
Especially once, after Su Feng broke through the corner and scored for a layup, this guy pointed to a floor to remind himself that when he accidentally stepped on a "mine"...
Bowen just realized that the floor was a "landmine" even he didn't even know.
On the Celtics bench, Auerbach knew that he was a cocoon.
As the saying goes, the stadium environment is relative.
Tonight~IndoMTL.com~, the Celtics, who were knocked out by the Raptors, not only failed to play their home court advantage, but on the contrary, the Raptors had the upper hand.
But the story comes back again.
How could the great "Cardinal" think that Su Feng was such a fine man?
To be reasonable, you can keep so many "traps" in mind after only stepping on the stadium once, and at the same time avoid these "traps" in intense and exciting games, this...
Is it really something that humans can do?
If the NBA also has the strongest brain program, there is no doubt that Auerbach would definitely call Su Feng the strongest.
"Is there nothing in this kid's mind other than basketball?" Auerbach thought with emotion as he watched Su Feng, who was constantly voice-controlling his teammates on the court to avoid "landmines".
