Chapter 200: Elevator Tactics

In the second half, the Lakers were more offensive, and the Celtics were also trying to catch up, but they had nothing to do with Kobe and Gasol, and they didn't dare to let go of Li Du, seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, and losing seemed inevitable.

In the first half of the third quarter, with the support of the Big Three, the Celtics finally did not let the Lakers continue to extend the lead, but if the 18-point gap is maintained until the fourth quarter, it will be almost impossible to catch up.

Taking advantage of the Lakers' call for a long timeout and the two sides eased their strength, Ray Allen gently turned around the other two giants and said to them: "Have you found out, Li Du is very energetic today, and the level of commitment is very high." We have to find a way to deal with it, otherwise we will lose not only this game, but the next game! ”

Pierce nodded, and also sighed: "I have to think of a way, the Lakers don't know what's going on today, even Lamar's often distracted guy seems to be desperate for me!" ”

Garnett looked up at the big screen blankly, then snorted heavily and said, "Well, I'll try it on the offensive end!" Gasol is strong, but not without weaknesses, and if I fight, I should be able to deal with him. As long as I'm open on the inside, you'll have a chance on the outside. Now the point difference is so big, if you want to chase it back, you have to rely on three-point shots! ”

Pierce clubbed his head, pointed to the Lakers and said: "The most sure three-point shot is Ray, but in the state of Li Du today, Ray may be very troublesome." ”

Ray Allen also understood that he had a heavy responsibility at this time, so he asked Rivers and everyone for their opinions: "Do you want to use the tactic we practiced before to deal with Li Du during the Berserk Period?" ”

Rivers thought for a moment, then clapped his hands hard and said, "Okay, that's it!" Just to see how the Lakers will respond, if we lose this game again, we will be more and more passive in the future! ”

The Celtics found through the study of the Lakers in the playoffs that Li Du has had physical problems since the playoffs, but this does not mean that Li Du has poor physical fitness, on the contrary, they found that this is because Li Du can improve his strength, speed, and even foot change rate to an incredible point in a short period of time, at the cost of his physical strength will be greatly consumed.

In order to deal with the furious type of Li Du, the Celtics practiced a special set of tactics, which are vividly called "elevator tactics", using Ray Allen's super shooting and running ability, and then he ran between two tall players just before he was about to catch the ball. As soon as Ray Allen passed, the two players stood side by side, just as the two doors of an elevator were closed.

It only takes 0.4 seconds for Ray Allen to shoot a three-pointer, and only he and Li Du can reach this kind of shooting speed among active players, and it only takes a moment for the defender to be blocked.

And the reason why two tall and strong men are used to cover off the ball is to help Ray Allen buy that 0.4 seconds of shooting time when he is facing a difficult man like Li Du. Even if it is Li Du, if he wants to bypass the two tall players, it is not possible to do it in 0.4 seconds!

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Li Du did it and bypassed the covering personnel within 0.4 seconds, he was always blocked, and when he pounced, Ray Allen already had room to shoot!

The only weakness of this tactic is that the whole team needs to do things for Ray Allen alone, and once Ray Allen doesn't shoot well, it will be a complete waste of offensive opportunities! Originally, the Celts didn't plan to use this tactic, this was used to deal with Li Du during the berserk period, and now Li Du is almost playing normally, or if you want to say berserk, he is going berserk the whole time.

But now it's 18 points behind, and if you don't use it, I'm afraid the next game will be enough! So Ray Allen gently rubbed his wrists, moved his fingers twice, and went on the field with his teammates, they were going to make a last stand!

Li Du is still expressionless and follows Ray Allen, he is now completely focused on the game, and he can accurately grasp the position, movements, and even breathing of everyone in the audience.

Ray Allen continued to run, and Li Du followed the defense inch by inch. With excellent foot changes and speed, Ray Allen couldn't get rid of Li Du when he covered his teammates several times. However, Ray Allen is not in a hurry, he knows very well how difficult Li Du is, and the front covers are all single covers, in order to let Li Du be a little behind Ray Allen a little bit, and prepare for the final "elevator closing".

After taking Li Du around twice, Ray Allen suddenly accelerated after a single block, Li Du's eyes lit up, he knew that Ray Allen was going to make a move, so he also sped up at his feet and followed Ray Allen.

"After the next single block, Ray Allen is going to go out of the three-point line to catch the ball and shoot!" Li Du looked at Ray Allen's run, and he, who is also a three-point shooter, of course knew Ray Allen's plans, and he was already prepared in his heart.

Sure enough, Ray Allen and his teammates passed by and went out of the three-point line, and the basketball was passed to him at the same time. When Li Du was about to chase and defend, he felt that the two people suddenly approached him, and the two doors were like two doors, isolating himself from Ray Allen!

"Double Cover!" Li Du immediately understood in his heart, the knob under his feet, turned around with a gossip palm, bypassed a covering player like a gust of wind, appeared in front of Ray Allen again, and got up to block!

"Huh?" Li Duyi, who was about to jump, frowned and stopped. Because when he turned around and reappeared in front of Ray Allen, he found that Ray Allen had already made a move!

"Brush", the basketball went into the net, and the Celtics finally chased back the 3 points.

The Lakers' offense is still started with Kobe Bryant and Gasol, and Li Du is the outside containment point. The Celtics can only do their best to deal with the Lakers' offense, and no one is sure that they will be able to defend it. They were lucky, the Lakers didn't score two times in a row.

The Celtics used an "elevator game", with Ray Allen hitting two three-pointers and Pierce hitting a three-pointer.

The score gap between the two teams narrowed to 9 points at once, and the Lakers were beaten 9-0 by the Celtics at the end of the third quarter!

When Li Du's eyes were about to burst into flames, Rivers had already replaced the Big Three. On the Lakers' side, the Zen master also replaced starters such as Kobe Bryant and Li Du off the court one after another. Rivers and Zen Master knew in their hearts that no Finals could be won easily, and they were both preparing for the fourth quarter.

It's a pity that they were wrong!
