Chapter 53: Kobe Bryant Closes the Coffin

Backbite!

The whistle blew.

Kevin Garnett did return to the court, replacing P.J. Brown.

Other than that, Doug Refus didn't make any other substitutions.

This was a bit of a surprise to the three ESPN commentators, who thought it was time to put all three of them on the table to stabilize the military.

But clearly, Doug Refus had other considerations.

Correspondingly, the Golden State Warriors did not make any substitution adjustments. It's still the lineup of Mirishizaki, Radmanovic, Petrus, Little Tiger and Monta Alice.

Little Tiger wants Stephen Jackson and Kwame Brown to rest for a while.

At present, this lineup can still carry it for a while, and the initial plan of the Little Tiger is that as long as Boston does not expand the difference to more than 5 points in the third quarter, he will not play Kwame Brown.

In the playoffs, the importance of this heavy center is increasing, and you must not do fearless physical exertion until the critical moment.

Kevin Garnett's play-in quickly changed the Celtics' passivity in the free-throw line area, and his mobility filled the area in one fell swoop. And hit a mid-range jumper that stabilized the morale of the army.

However, he was unable to stop the tiger cub from making further moves in the area.

He was very mobile, but he couldn't cover beyond the three-point line, and Radmanovic moved just outside the three-point line.

And the little tiger's mobility ability is stronger than him, coupled with a galloping Monta Alice, Boston's desire to kill the Golden State Warriors with a staked layout has obviously become a fool's dream!

Brush!

Little Tiger assists Miri Misaki to hit a throw again!

The function of his transit station was opened to the maximum.

Doug Refus, who was on the sidelines, was at a loss, and he looked at Ray Allen beside him. Ray Allen's expression was painful, and his calves cramped.

It's not a big injury, but we certainly can't play him tonight.

The veteran players must be carefully cared for and no longer be as reckless as they were when they were younger.

Moreover, Ray Allen himself also meant not to play. He is a player who cherishes his professional life. He knows that with his style of play, as long as all aspects are properly maintained, he can play for at least another seven or eight years. And the longer it is, the more money you make, and of course the most important consideration for professional footballers is money.

Of course, the championship is also important.

However, with the current situation, can the little tiger come up with any tricks? The Golden State Warriors have long been at the end of their rope.

The game is deadlocked.

The Golden State Warriors consistently maintain a three- to four-point lead.

This makes Boston very passive.

Previously, the coaching staff did a lot of tactical drills before the game, but they didn't practice that Little Tiger would actually do the axis in the middle zone, and they thought that Little Tiger would hold the ball and be in charge of the ball.

"I don't understand why Boston hasn't been to Ray Allen yet. If Boston now had three active offensive points, the Golden State Warriors' current defensive structure would be easily destroyed. When the defensive system is destroyed, their offensive system is also greatly reduced. ”

Jeff Van Gundy said in the commentary table that he couldn't understand why Doug Refus's on-the-spot reaction was so slow!

"Doug Refus's reflex arc took longer than it would take him to get hard against ***. ”

The serious Van Gundy made a comical analogy.

Although this metaphor does not seem to be very consistent with his image.

But for him personally, it's actually a kind of empathy. At his age, it is no longer a stage of 'hard waiting', but 'waiting for hard'.

Reggie Miller scoffed. He laughed and teased, "Could it be that Dougriffs' on-the-spot reaction is worse than yours? At least he made it to the finals." ”

Jeff Van Gundy looked embarrassed.

The on-the-spot reaction is indeed a problem that he has been criticized by the public, and his on-the-spot reaction is to stuff all kinds of small notes into his suit.

Of course, there's no denying that he's hardworking. But diligence and intelligence often don't go hand in hand.

"Perhaps, Doug Refus should have put Perkins on the court earlier. ”

McBrin said.

Sure enough, with three minutes left in the third quarter, Patrick Perkins walked onto the court.

Correspondingly, in the next round, Kwame Brown also took to the court.

At the same time, Monta Alice came off the court and replaced Stephen Jackson. Petrus also brought on Barnes.

All of a sudden, the Warriors' roster has risen to an average of about six feet eight.

At least, they are no longer weaker than the Boston Celtics in terms of height.

Backbite!

The whistle blew.

Little Tiger is in control again.

In the face of Rajónondo's defense, he suddenly accelerated in a straight line, and Rajónondo chased after him.

In the state of high-speed drag racing, the little tiger suddenly made an emergency stop.

Rajon Rondo subconsciously went to the brakes, but it was too late.

Wait until he finishes the emergency stop. The little tiger had changed direction sharply from his side.

"No one in the league can defend the Little Tiger's breakthrough. He's like a long, high-speed knife that can slice through defenders' ankles at will. The magician was full of praise.

"At high speeds, he has the most control over his body in history. It's impossible to find a player like that anymore, because he's even a little against the laws of science. ”

The Black Mamba spoke in more detail.

At this time, the little tiger who violated the laws of science had already smashed into the paint area with lightning speed.

And he slapped Perkins head-on, and he soared like an eagle and crashed head-on into Perkins.

Perkins quickly jumped up with his hands in the air, trying to block and also trying to defend the authority of his pre-match rhetoric.

He decided to shoot the tiger cub directly to the floor, even at the cost of a foul.

Therefore, he fanned the little tiger fiercely, and the power of his movements was very huge.

However, the little tiger suddenly fell into a cat's waist...... Burst!

He slammed sideways into Perkins, then spun his body around Perkins' armpit, and then stretched out his arm and sent the basketball out in a twisted gesture...... Swish!

The referee under the basket was stunned for half a second and blew the whistle.

Signal for Perkins to foul.

At this time, Perkins had just landed, and he was borrowed by Zhang Ruofeng, his body was a little unable to bear the center of gravity, and he staggered back two steps, almost not falling.

The landing of the little tiger was very smooth.

There was even a starting pose of Taizu's long fist!

Quite chic!

"Oh my God, this ...... Is it Chinese kung fu?" McBrin already exclaimed on TV: "Jacky-chan often bullies big guys in movies in this way, I didn't expect our little tiger to do the same!! Boston is terrible, they have to face a little tiger who knows Chinese kung fu!!"

There was even more excitement in front of the TV.

Although they know that Little Tiger has made action movies, the upcoming Batman will also have action scenes.

But I didn't expect him to really apply kung fu to the competition.

Suddenly, these Yankees, who had never seen the world, began to worship in various ways.

Even the players on the pitch were surprised.

The ability of Chinese kung fu in the movie is so strong that it leaves a mysterious and powerful impression on them.

There used to be a joke that in the face of black provocations, all you had to do was make Bruce Lee's classic moves, and shout 'Ahhhh

Although it is an exaggeration, it is undeniable that it does leave a lot of established impressions on foreigners.

Little Tiger walked to the free throw line, and he felt that the atmosphere at the North Shore Garden Arena was a little weird.

Miri Kinzaki also said to himself in his ear: Tiger, why didn't you say Chinese kung fu earlier?

The little tiger was speechless.

What kind of Chinese kung fu is this? This is a perfect dodge, who made Perkins so fat, if he had lost a little weight, he might not have been able to find a point to complete this attack.

Swish!

Little Tiger hit a free throw, and the margin increased to 5 points.

Perkins' foul also came to four.

This is definitely not good news for Boston.

Coming back, Kevin Garnett steadied and hit a mid-range jumper.

Miri Kizaki played the full three quarters, and his steps were no longer as fast as they were in the first quarter.

This worries the little tigers, and after the lack of two important forwards, Big Liuth Miles and Zach Randolph, the Warriors are already stretched thin in this position, and can only let Mirishizaki take care of it.

After another battle, the little tiger entered the box again and tried to create Perkins' fifth foul.

Perkins, however, reflexively dodged.

This is tantamount to letting the little tiger get an empty basket.

Doug Refus on the sidelines jumped to his feet and cursed, he had warned Perkins to be aware of fouls, but there was no need to notice this extent, right?

Isn't that tantamount to surrendering?

The third quarter ended quickly.

The Golden State Warriors actually led by six points at 77:71 going into the fourth quarter.

This statistic is very unacceptable to Doug Refus, and if he loses the first game, how faceless. The opponent is a remnant.

"How do I feel like the Warriors are in such good shape right now?" said the Magician suddenly, breathing a sigh of relief, "Boston is very likely to lose their first win on their home court." ”

"Hmm. ”

Black Mamba nodded, and he said: "Tiger didn't consume much physical strength in the third quarter, and as far as I know about him, his physical reserves can at least support him through the fourth quarter, and even if there is overtime, he can maintain a certain output." ”

"The question for Boston now is whether they're going to be able to get on Ray Allen or not, and what's going on with Ray Allen. Also, when will Patrick Perkins be able to regain his confidence, he was clearly scared by Tiger's kung fu layup. ”

Kobe Bryant analyzed it in detail: "If Doug Refus can't make a quick change, then Tiger will attack the paint area very violently next." He's the kind of guy who spotted your weakness and quickly plunged into the dagger. ”

"In five minutes, we'll be sure of the winner!"

Kobe Bryant is undoubtedly the person on the planet who knows Tiger Cub best.

In fact, what he said at this time was exactly what Little Tiger had arranged for his teammates.

Of course, one thing that the Black Mamba didn't anticipate was that Little Tiger ended up replacing Miri Kizaki and he sent Stephen Jackson to deal with Kevin Garnett.

KG is obviously not as easy to deal with as Pau Gasol, but the tough guy Stephen Jackson is full of confidence and fighting spirit.

He thinks Kevin Garnett must regret facing himself.

He doesn't have a good word about Kevin Garnett in his mouth, and he keeps emphasizing: "KG is a soft egg." He just likes to call himself tough, he never moves forward in any of the court brawls, he always regrets it, he only knows how to bully rookies. I've never seen a player who claims to be tough have 80 percent of his points coming from a jumper!

Stephen Jackson's words made the players laugh.

Little Tiger had a tough face with Kevin Garnett in his rookie season, Kevin Garnett's strength is indeed outstanding, but he... It's also true that he's not a particularly tough guy.

Anyway, he was the one who lost in the end, and he was the one who apologized.

Backbite!

The whistle blew.

The game continues.

Jeff Van Gundy is still emphasizing his assertions: "Even if Ray Allen doesn't play tonight, the Warriors don't have the slightest chance of winning. They are too far behind in the lineup, and the only thing they can rely on now is the little tigers. The little tiger's jump shooting ability has not yet been recognized, and when it comes to the critical moment of the game, the jump shot is the key to determining the outcome of the game. The answer to why the New York Knicks were able to succeed in the Black Eight back then is very simple, we have Alan Houston, who is the best at mid-range jumpers in the league. ”

Van Gundy has always emphasized the role of defense and the jumper.

However, the opening first round.

Little Tiger assisted Kwame Brown to complete the dunk, he entered the box, attracted Perkins' help to defend, and threw the basketball high...... Rumble!

At that moment, Kwame Brown took a strong rise into the air and smashed the basketball into the basket.

Perkins, despite receiving psychiatric therapy from Kevin Garnett on the bench, had a fear that he wouldn't punch me to death when facing Tiger Cub, and that fear hastened his hesitation. So Kwame Brown naturally won the violent dunk.

In retrospect, Kevin Garnett was confronted by Stephen Jackson's Mongolian wrestling-like defense.

The two were tangled at the free-throw line.

In the end, Kevin Garnett could only force him out of the way, and he had just received the basketball ...... Syllable!

Stephen Jackson slapped him directly on the hand.

Then he raised his right hand in response to the referee's whistle.

"It was only my first foul of the game. ”

He calmly told Kevin Garnett: "I like to play against tough players, and I prefer to go head-to-head with tough players. Whether it's a fist, or a revolver, I'm never afraid of anyone. ”

He spoke coldly.

It's hard like his fist.

This made Kevin Garnett very uncomfortable, and it always felt like he was here to find fault on purpose.

He quickly fed the ball to Paul Pierce, who was not very comfortable facing Barnes' defense.

Let's be honest. The Golden State Warriors have three of the best defensive forwards in the league, Barnes, Jackson and Petrus, all three of whom are bandits, especially after being soaked in this big dye vat, and their mental attributes are simply added to the extreme.

You think, even Quame Brown, Radmanovic and other sheep have become jackals.

How cruel should they be now, having been jackals?

Brush!

In the end, Pierce still forced a jumper. Even though Barnes had already inserted his fingers into his eye sockets.

Paul Pierce is also a tough player with full mental attributes. Although Boston has always used Kevin Garnett's roar as the opening scene.

But in reality, Paul Pierce is the real backbone of this team.

However, his toughness could not remedy Perkins' hesitation!

This time, it was Barnes who stormed up. He ran back from the baseline to cut into the penalty area like lightning, and the little tiger passed the basketball to him just right.

Since Perkins was caught by the tiger cub who broke head-on, he ...... Rumble!

Barnes's slam is here!

The back garden was trampled on twice in a row.

Doug Refus couldn't take it anymore.

He commanded Kevin Garnett to be careful next time he shrank into the paint zone.

But that price is.

Swish!

Stephen Jackson hits an easy jumper from the free-throw line!

Boston's defensive and offensive systems are out of order.

This disorder was pinched directly in the hands of the little tiger, and the Celtics no longer knew how to end it.

Although Jeff Van Gundy on the TV was still emphasizing that this was a non-structural shock, Boston would be able to quickly turn the situation back on track.

The black mamba in front of the TV stretches out.

He already knows where the victory will be.

He said calmly: "The most important thing in playing with Little Tiger is not how strong you are, but that you have to focus the whole time. If you get caught by him, then unfortunately, you can only accept defeat!"

That's why he's been able to pull off miracles time and time again. ”

"Boston didn't play Ray Allen and didn't replace Perkins in time to brew this defeat. ”

Kobe Bryant covers the coffin.
