In the first quarter of the game, the wonderful matchup between the two sides did not let the fans' expectations go to waste, and the gunpowder matchup between Anjie and Garnett made the fans of TD North Shore Garden addicted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Therefore, during the break, Rickard had to shout to explain the tactics to his players, and Anjie could barely hear them. He finally knew why Coach Rivers' voice had become the way it did, and if Riccard had been kept at TD North Shore Garden for a few seasons, his voice would have been even more hoarse than Rivers's.

"Don't let them get an easy shot from the outside! You've all been fooled by that guy Garnett, he's not the Celtics' offense at all. At least he'll be behind Pierce and Ray Allen in this game!"

"He's just trash-talking, you don't have to pay attention to him. Keep an eye on Ray Allen and Pierce, Ann, if they both break through, I want you to get out of the entanglement quickly and help defend the penalty area!" Rickard cleared his throat before he could say a few words before he felt some discomfort in his throat.

An Jie nodded silently, and the small actions that Garnett made to him in the first quarter of the game made An Jie's body still sore. Facing Garnett, Anjie actually felt how friendly and civilized the old demon Divac was.

However, he will not be intimidated by this difficulty, and in the following games, An Jie will also start to do whatever it takes.

"It's hard! On the offensive end, you two have to work hard!" and the players in white jerseys on the Celtics bench also heated up the discussion about countermeasures. They knew it was going to be a tough battle, and everyone was ready to fight to the last second.

Kevin Garnett, this guy would never be tough in front of his own people. After the confrontation in the first quarter of the game, Garnett also figured out Anjie's current strength. On the defensive end, Garnett can still fight, but on the offensive end, Garnett really can't spare extra energy. So he entrusted Ray Allen and Pierce to help him carry the heavy lifting on the offensive end.

"Leave it to us, Ann boy, don't take it too seriously. It's just a regular season game, there's no need to be so bloody. It's been a long time since Pierce has seen who Garnett will fight so hard, and he knows that Anjie is also a ruthless character, and he doesn't want Garnett to get hurt because of this.

"Hmph, a little hairy head, it can't hurt me. Garnett waved his hand disapprovingly, and continued to gasp heavily.

Garnett would say that, but only for the sake of face. In fact, he knew very well in his heart how difficult An Jie was to deal with. It seems that today, it is really a tough battle.

Garnett hadn't had enough rest before the second quarter ensued. As the star of the team, An Jie played again as soon as the second quarter came up. As soon as Garnett got up from the bench, he was pulled by Coach Rivers.

"Huh?" Garnett turned his head in surprise, it was rare that Rivers had anything else to arrange for him alone?

"You rest first, and then go up when you have rested enough. Rivers knew that these old boys were past their prime. It is essential to bring out the best energy they still have and to give them more time to rest.

Garnett is indeed very tired, and the strength required to fight against An Jie is several times that of others. He silently sat back on the bench and watched unwillingly as Celtics backup center Greg Stiensma took off his training uniform and walked onto the basketball court.

Garnett, who remains one of the Celtics' most important players, feels he may be increasingly marginalized in the league......

Defensive Player of the Year in 2010, which is the biggest accolade for Greg Steensma. Of course, this award for the best defensive player is presented by the NBDL, the development league of the NBA.

This strong white man with a height of 2.11 meters participated in the draft in the same year as An Jie. It's just that unlike An Jie, who entered the small black house, Steensma was not selected directly.

However, after the NBDL showed their toughness defensively, the Celtics decided to sign the white center and make it their own.

As it turned out, Steensma was a very useful blue-collar player. All kinds of dirty work, he can do it very well. As he gets older, Garnett has played significantly less minutes than he did back then. However, it is precisely because of the presence of Stiesma, a blue-collar substitute, that the Celtics can hold on to third place in the East in this situation.

However, no matter how good Stiensma is, he is just a quasi-substitute with a slightly better defense. However, An Jie is an all-star level player!

"Raymond Felton is very brave, he is ready to force a breakthrough with Rondo's block!" Although Filton's breakthrough looked very imposing, Rickard frowned off the field.

This breakthrough was not executed according to his tactics at all. Of course, the format on the basketball court changes rapidly, and it is impossible to play every round and every ball according to the strategy on the tactical board. But Riccard still felt that the ball was not played by Filton.

Indeed, very reluctantly. Felton was driven crazy by Rondo, a guy who had no one in his eyes, so he decided to use a breakthrough to teach this guy who was not big or small.

But unfortunately, Rondo's strength and defensive will greatly exceeded Felton's expectations. Yes, Rondo may have some personality problems, but his strength is not adulterated at all.

Felton wasn't blocked by Rondo, but under this strong defense, Felton's barely made a layup and missed.

Greg Steensma, like Anjie, is a player who pays a lot of attention to the basics. He immediately turned around and stuck his position, ready to protect the defensive rebound.

"Damn! Damn!" Before Steensma could stand still, she felt a tremendous oppressive force behind her. He knew that An Jie was very good at fighting for rebounds, but when he was stuck in a good position, Steensima was determined to take down this defensive rebound!

But sometimes, the gap in strength cannot be bridged by making up your mind casually. Although Steensma has the consciousness of slotting, his slotting skills are simply too amateurish in Anjie's opinion. Anjie took a hard step forward, and then pressed Steensma to jump.

Being pressed by An Jie like this, Steensma could only jump a little high. But with no advantage in height and arm span, Steensma's height is not enough for him to reach rebounds.

Angel was a big cut behind Steensma, his palm hitting the basketball first. And basketball has also changed its trajectory and obediently returned to the net.

"Finishing a layup behind Stiesma, oh my God, what else can stop Ann?" Kenny Smith has been intimidated by Angel's performances more than once this season.

After the goal, An Jie jumped back to the defense, and his arrogant appearance naturally caused a commotion in the stands of TD North Shore Garden Arena.

Underneath, Garnett's fists clenched even tighter on his knees. Watching a young cub behave in his own turf, of course, a person with the character of the wolf king can't stand it.

However, Coach Rivers still looked at the court with a calm face, the head coach is not a player, and the biggest taboo for a team's manager is to be blinded by emotions. Look at George Carr and Popovich, they will vent at the slightest bit of upset in order to keep their brains awake. It's just that the poor referee will become the punching bag of those two old men at every turn.

Rivers looked at Garnett and motioned for him to wait. He didn't plan to rely on Stiesma to limit Anjie, as long as the Celtics could continue to score and let Anjie score a few goals, what would it matter?

I have to admit that although Ray Allen and Pierce are old, they still have the strength of "giants". Ricard made several substitutions to defend the two guys, but none of them succeeded.

Whether it's Contney Lee or Wesley Matthews, whether it's Jamal Crawford or Gerard Wallace, their defense will always allow the Greenshirts to find a gap.

But the two who have been shooting on the outside, no matter how high the shooting rate is, they are not as good as An Jie, who is attacking on the inside. The game was slowly closing until the end of the second quarter with only five minutes left, and the Celtics only had a slim lead of one point!

This time, however, the offensive ball fell to the Trail Blazers. If this offense is successful, then the Trail Blazers will complete their first comeback! And the Celtics, who are getting more and more bored, may not be able to chase it back.

It was definitely a turning point in the game, so this time the defense was crucial for the Celtics!

"Actually, the Celtics' defense did a pretty good job today, and the Trail Blazers' outside players didn't shoot well. But alas, they couldn't stop Ann and Aldridge. Especially Ann, his efficiency under the basket is too high, and maintaining such a high scoring efficiency is difficult for the Celtics to compete with outside offense. ”

While Kenny Smith was analysing the situation on the court, Jamal Crawford, who was in possession of the ball, began his fancy dribbling performance again.

Celtics backup guard Avery Bradley was dazzled by Crawford's moves, and the sophomore rookie was not known for his defense, but he met a guard who was very good at attacking.

Of course, as a professional footballer, Crawford's every move has to be meaningful. It's not a street court, it's not a place for monkeys to play. Crawford's moves, while fancy, are no less functional.

Seeing that Bradley's center of gravity began to shake sharply, Crawford suddenly changed hands from behind and plunged towards Bradley's left.

BRADLEY BARELY KEPT UP WITH CRAWFORD, BUT AS SOON AS HE MOVED, HE SPOTTED ANOTHER CROSSOVER TO THE RIGHT WITH CRAWFORD. Bradley was unable to effectively change his center of gravity at this time, and the consequence of his forced blocking was that his feet suddenly became weak, and then his center of gravity fell to the ground unsteadily.

"Oh my God, Jamal Crawford played Bradley around!

Just as the fans and commentators in the audience screamed, Jamal Crawford struck the basket with lightning speed. At the same time, the Celtics' defense is starting to shrink, and Jamal Crawford will certainly not let go of such scoring opportunities!

Just a second before he collided with Stiesma, who had come from the defense, Crawford suddenly threw the basketball in his hand.

"Throw?" Kenny Smith thought the unusual move was a bit strange, and if it was a throw, it would be a little too crooked. Could it be ......

As soon as Kenny Smith thought about this, he saw a black figure suddenly rise into the air and grab Crawford's "throw". Stiesma turned his head to follow the trajectory of the basketball's flight, only to see two huge 00s on a sturdy back.

"Bang!" Every dunk of An Jie is a test of the quality of the NBA league's basket. Heavy dunk, which has become the unique dunk beauty of Anjie, who does not jump high.

Score, overtake!

After the goal, Anjie did not celebrate, but hooked his finger at the Celtics bench in the process of returning to the defense.

The camera immediately showed Garnett, who just smiled contemptuously, but in fact, his heart was already angry!

"Do you want to stop me, come on!" An Jie also smiled and said this to Garnett, don't you play dirty and like to provoke your opponents? Come on, see which of the two of us will lose control first!

This time, Garnett really met a bad opponent.
