But no one will admit that they are wrong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The game is about to start, Angie was interviewed by the media, when asked this question, Angie's expression was of course, and he said: "Maybe many people will think that we made some stupid decisions at the beginning, but in fact, we really didn't miss anything, our team is moving forward on the right path, whether it is Marcus or James, they are an important part of the team's future, I believe they will soon be able to grow into competitive players." ”

Angie's answer is to save face, but in comparison, Celtics rookie Smart's remarks are more direct and straightforward, and it is not an exaggeration to even say that it is provocative.

"My talent, the best of all the rookies, I believe in that in the past, I believe in it now, and I believe in it in the future. ”

"Do you mean you'll have the upper hand in the next match against Don?"

"Anyway, why not?" said Smart, pursed his lips and said in a flat tone.

When the reporter left, James Young couldn't help but ask curiously: "Marcus, that guy is in shape, why are you making trouble for yourself?"

"Do you really want to know?" Smart began.

"Tell me, I don't think it's a smart idea. Yang said and shook his head.

"Well, it's not really a good idea. Smart didn't mean to hide it, or he didn't think there was anything wrong with saying anything to Young.

"You know what? Manager Danny says he doesn't regret his choice, but in his heart he knows that he missed Don, so I have to prove that I was his choice to miss Don. ”

"I mean, I have to. Smart looked at Yang and said.

"But if you can't do that......"

"No......" Before Yang could finish speaking, Smart interrupted, "If you fight to attack, I am not necessarily Don's opponent, but defensive nonsense, I don't feel that my role is limited, his characteristic is strength, and this is what I am good at." ”

Smart looked confident.

Smart's answer left Johnson speechless, but he understood Smart's reason for doing so.

The game between the two sides was already surging undercurrent, and Smart's remarks could be said to add fuel to the fire, turning the game into a tense situation.

A reporter found Tang Hao and wanted him to comment on the matter.

Tang Hao was indifferent and did not comment on Smart's remarks, in fact, he was not interested in commenting at all.

He had very little contact with Smart, and the only part of it came from his pre-draft physical tests, when Smart was the only person other than him to complete the 385kg bench press.

However, he understands Smart's approach, competition between rookies is inevitable, not to mention the fiery "grudge" between him and the Celtics and Angie before, Smart wants to prove himself in this game, which is also a normal thing.

So his attitude was that he didn't take it seriously.

Tang Hao's reaction was a kind of indifference, but in Smart's view, it was a kind of retreat, which boosted his arrogance.

After the team's last training session, he spoke out again in front of the media, claiming that he would definitely beat Tang Hao and help the team win the victory.

Such a statement was more direct than the previous statement, and it also made the local media in Boston climax.

The Celtics are the Green Shirts, a dynasty team, and the team that has won the most championships in NBA history.

In fact, not only the media in Boston, but also the fans of the Green Shirts also expressed their support for Smart on the Internet, and they expected and believed that Smart would definitely make a name for himself.

In fact, at the scene of this game, a large number of spectators appeared at the game site holding KT boards in support of Smart.

"Marcus, you're the strongest rookie!"

"Beat that guy!"

"Boston is your strongest backing!"

……

KT boards like this are everywhere, and the local Boston fans are rallying for Smart.

The game between the two sides was about to start, and when Tang Hao and his Lakers teammates entered the court, they were all infected by the atmosphere of the fans.

Although it has been in poor shape with the Lakers recently, the support of the fans is also as good as ever, which is also the foundation of an ace team.

When the players were introduced, Smart was greeted with as much cheers as Rajon Rondo, the heart of the team.

After the introduction of the players, the game between the two sides is also on the verge of breaking out.

When the game was about to start, the Led screen on the scene gave a double-point starting list.

On the Lakers' side, the starting lineup is still exactly the same as before.

On the Celtics' side, the backcourt is a combination of Rondo and Bradley, with Evan Turner and Jared Sallinger up front, and Tyler Zeller, the older brother of the Zeller brothers, in the starting center.

The clash between the Green Shirts and the Purple and Gold was one of the most anticipated games by fans, and almost every game represented a clash of stars and a confrontation of glory.

Although the strength of both teams has dropped a lot so far, this history is still the same.

It was Zeller and Hill who jumped the ball, with both leaping high, with Zeller jumping slightly earlier to get the ball back into the Celtics half.

The home team was given the right to attack first, and the scene was followed by earth-shattering cheers.

Rondo drove the ball to the frontcourt, went to the frontcourt to direct his teammates to run, and when Turner cut to the basket, he threw his hand and passed the ball in.

Rondo's passing is characterized by precision, and basically his passing can lead the player to complete the attack in the first time.

This time was no exception, and after Turner received the ball, it was a three-step layup.

A good chance, but Kelly on the inside made up for it.

Turner dodged and staggered Kelly's layup, which was done well, but the shot was not very well controlled, and the basketball slid over the back edge of the basket and was caught by Hill on the other side.

The scene was in an uproar.

The Lakers counterattacked, Jeremy Lin advanced to the front court with the ball, handed the ball to Kobe Bryant who ran out of position on the weak side, Kobe made an offensive move, attracted the Celtics' defense, glanced back at Tang Hao, and then broke through with the ball.

Tang Hao quickly understood his intentions from Kobe's eyes, and he also ran along.

Kobe Bryant broke through the basket and pressed the Celtics' defense to shrink inside.

Despite the fact that the quality of the completed offensive is much less than before, the deterrent power of the breakthrough remains.

At this moment, Kobe Bryant threw the ball to Tang Hao, who ran out of position.

When the ball arrived, after Tang Hao received the ball, he made a three-point shot directly.

"Huh~"

With a crisp sound, Tang Hao's hand felt as hot as before, and he hit three points steadily.

The person who defended Tang Hao was none other than Bradley, who had defended him in the trial before.

At this time, seeing Tang Hao's three-point shot, he waved his arm angrily.

It wasn't as obvious as Smart had shown, but he clearly wanted to make a name for himself in the trial.

It's just that this is a bit of a bad taste.

The Celtics' offense, Rondo continued to organize on the outside, Sallinger ran back from the inside, and he followed to pass the ball.

Sallinger took two steps from inside the three-point line on the right side and took a shot.

"Bang!"

With a muffled sound, the basketball collapsed out of the frame, and the rebound was grabbed by Kobe.

The scene was in an uproar.

The opening two offensive chances were good, but they couldn't be hit, and the home team's hand didn't seem to be on the line.

On the Lakers' offense, Jeremy Lin broke through the ball to Kobe Bryant on the outside, Kobe Bryant shook off the defender with a shooting feint, and then also held the ball to kill.

Bradley was forced to help.

Kobe Bryant just took two steps, and then shook his hand to give the ball to Tang Hao again.

Tang Hao's catch is a big vacancy, and he throws it with his hand.

"Huh!"

There was a crisp sound, and another three-point shot.

There was a stirring at the scene.

Compared with the Celtics, Tang Hao's feel is completely another extreme, and the heat is a little hot.

Celtics coach Stevens grabbed his chin with his hand at this time.

Tang Hao's feel is one thing, what really surprised him was the cooperation of the Lakers.

Kobe Bryant was constantly passing the ball to Tang Hao.

This is something he didn't expect, you must know that in the previous games, almost the two of them fought separately, and Tang Hao's outstanding performance most of the time was after Kobe Bryant's departure.

But at this time, the two suddenly began to cooperate constantly, which increased the pressure on the team's defense.

The Celtics' offense, Rondo noticed that his teammates were not feeling good, beckoned Zeller to come out to block and dismantle, and then broke through with the ball, successfully attracting the Lakers' interior defense, and then a secret hit to the ball passed to Sullinger inside.

Sallinger took the ball and hit 2 points to finally score for his team.

The scene was followed by the excited cheers of the fans.

On the Lakers' offense, Jeremy Lin went to the front court with the ball, and saw that Tang Hao's side had a good offensive space, so he threw the ball over directly.

Tang Hao received the ball, and Kobe Bryant beckoned other teammates to open up the space, giving him enough space to play singles.

This seems to have become a tacit understanding.

When Bradley saw this, a burning look flashed in his eyes.

Previously, because of Kobe's containment, he never got the opportunity to defend Tang Hao head-on, and now this opportunity finally came to him.

Tang Hao didn't know Bradley's thoughts, and when he saw that his teammates took the initiative to pull him away, he knew that he had to play this ball alone.

Looking up at Bradley defending himself in front of him, he couldn't help but smile.

Bradley saw Tang Hao's smile and sank his weight with a serious face.

Tang Hao put away his smile, the smile just now was originally an instinctive reaction to meet an old acquaintance, and it seemed that Bradley understood it as something else.

He knew that Bradley's defense was characterized by long arms, and he turned his back and leaned against Bradley.

Bradley has defended Tang Hao, and has some understanding of Tang Hao's technical characteristics, after being beaten, he did not try to steal, but just resisted vigorously.

Tang Hao pushed in hard, and he didn't want to make the attack too complicated.

Bradley used his strength to eat, but he still couldn't withstand Tang Hao's strength.

Soon, Tang Hao entered a position close enough to the basket.

Bradley didn't dare to withdraw his strength at will, but he knew Tang Hao's rebellious body control ability.

Tang Hao reached the three-second zone, and after leaning on the beating, he turned around suddenly.

Bradley's center of gravity changed.

But in the next second, Tang Hao's center of gravity suddenly turned in the opposite direction.

Bradley didn't have time to withdraw his center of gravity.

Tang Hao has a light hook basket in his left hand.

The basketball then rolled into the hoop.

Tang Hao scored 2 points again!

Many fans at the scene couldn't help but stretch out their hands to hide their faces.

Now the score on the court is 8 to 2, all these 8 points are from Tang Hao, and it is a 100% shooting rate of 3 shots.

After Kobe Bryant took the initiative to pass the ball for Tang Hao, this performance was really terrifying.

In fact, this is just the beginning.

In the rest of the first quarter, Tang Hao was completely unstoppable, and with 3 minutes left before the end of the first quarter, he shot 9 out of 10 and had contributed a full 24 points, and ninety percent of the Lakers' scoring came from him.

Stevens looked very helpless at this time, and he had a hunch that Tang Hao might create a new history tonight.

At this point, both sides are in rotation.

On the Lakers' side, except for Tang Hao, all other positions were replaced by substitute players.

It's the same with the Celtics, except for Turner, the rest of the main players are also out of the game.

It was at this moment that there was a burst of cheers from the scene, as Smart came on the field.

As soon as it came up, it was the Celtics' offense.

Smart pushed forward with the ball, and when he got to the frontcourt, he gave the ball to Turner and cut to the basket.

When he cut into the air, he raised his right hand and Turner flicked the ball in.

Smart catches the ball and shoots directly at the defending Boozer.

Smart made a layup and went straight to Boozer to force a shot.

Boozer shot the block, but the body was pushed out, and Smart's shot flew past his fingertips and hit the rebound.

"Bang!"

"Huh!"

The ball bounced off the rebound and rolled into the basket.

Smart scored once from the start.

The cheers of the audience exploded in an instant.

"Marcus!"

The audience shouted Smart's name like a hero.

Smart felt the enthusiasm of the fans, and when he stepped back, he reached out and waved upwards in response to the cheers of the crowd.

Like a hero's triumph.

Clarkson took the ball to the front court and handed the ball to Tang Hao.

Tang Hao held the ball, and then saw that the defender in front of him was Smart.

"Come on, I'll beat you, you don't want to get points from me!"

As soon as the pair took the position, Smart shouted at Tang Hao.

"Defend! Defend!"

The shouts at the scene also reached a peak at this time.

Smart has already set the arena on fire with a successful attack, and now, what fans are looking forward to the most is naturally his successful defense of Tang Hao.

This kind of confrontation is always the most popular theme in the NBA.
