After speeding up the offensive tempo and failing to achieve good results, the Celtics reverted to their old-school grinding tactics, which are the Spurs and Pistons' frenzied tactical mode of reducing the number of offenses and making Stern cry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, this tactic is ugly, but it has a clear benefit that because of the reduced number of attacks, the team that implements this tactic, as long as they have a good defense, will often be able to bite the score most of the time.

So at this time, the Magic, who don't want to be entangled with the Celtics, actually want to be fast, but their outside defense is too scummy, which makes Rondo spend a full eight seconds to push over, and then wander leisurely on the outside of the Magic for a few seconds.

Ray, who is good at running off the ball. Allen finally tore the Magic's defense through a big hole in this time, and the ball in Rondo's hand was passed in time.

In the Magic lineup, Howard's greater role is on the defensive end, and he hurried out to make up for it.

Shi Lei was faster than him, as soon as he left the basket, Shi Lei pulled to the bottom line.

Thunder. Allen and Shi Lei cooperated very tacitly, and immediately faked the real pass and passed the basketball to Shi Lei's hands.

That's actually Garnett's role with the Celtics. Coordinate with teammates, shoot, or attack.

Shi Lei shot very steadily, and the basketball got into the basket.

"This ball is beautifully finished, Ray. Allen not only has a three-point accuracy, but also has a very wide view of the court, and he is not greedy for credit, unlike Yao Ming's teammates in the Rockets......"

Director Zhang's mouth was bald, forgetting that Yao Ming was sitting next to him, so Yao Ming's embarrassed face made the fans in front of the TV very happy.

In order to alleviate his embarrassment, Yao Ming could only forcibly accept the move: "This ball does cooperate very tacitly, the Celtics' Big Three, oh, now the 'Big Four', they are very selfless between them, in fact, this is quite a difficult thing, you must know that basketball is only one, so it is not easy for them to get to this day!" ”

It's really not easy, each of them has paid a lot for this, for example, last year, they had the first regular season record, but they only won the Best Sixth Man Award and the Best Defensive Player Award, and this year it is even worse, only Shi Lei won the Best Sixth Man, but if he can choose, Shi Lei is willing to continue to be miserable like this.

In the current lineup, the tacit cooperation between each other allows Shi Lei to reluctantly play most of Garnett's role in the team, but if they can't open the score immediately, what will happen to their bench?

The game was very anxious, and after Shi Lei shot to tie the score, the Magic soon gained a two-point lead again by Turkoglu's mid-range shot.

Both teams have a very high shooting rate, and now it depends on which team can't hold on first!

After the outside line was opened, the Celtics' defense had to spread outward. The Magic immediately changed their offensive strategy and concentrated the ball in Howard's hands.

Shi Lei knew the rules of their tactics, but it was not very useful, and he couldn't leave from the inside. Playing an interior line like Perkins who is slightly inferior in mobility, Howard is too experienced!

He couldn't go out, and in order to plug the team's defensive holes, Perkins had to float outside with Lewis, and Howard received the basketball as Lewis drifted farther and farther away.

It's important for a small man to defend a big man who can resist, Shi Lei can't do this, and today, he doesn't dare to make blatant fouls.

It doesn't make sense, Howard was very calm today, and this is still the home of the Magic.

After receiving the ball, Howard pushed Shi Lei to take a step, and completed the turn and jump..... Slam dunk. If you can train the hook hand into the existence of "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon", you don't expect him to have a more reliable scoring method besides the dunk that shows violence.

But Americans liked the tune, and Howard's dunk turned the Magic's home arena into a duck farm in an instant!

However, although the Magic opened up their internal and external offenses, they still couldn't open up the difference. The Celtics' defense was a little unprepared, but their offense was very strong. Once Allen and Pierce were linked, they were always able to create space to attack, keeping the score tangled up until midway through the second quarter.

At this time, the two teams' hands began to decline, and the Magic, who controlled the lifeblood of rebounding, got more offensive opportunities, gradually widening the gap between the two teams, and by the end of the first half, they had led the Keltel by 7 points.

The 7-point difference is not worth mentioning, but it is clear that Celtic must first find a strategy to deal with it!

"At the end of the first half, the Celtics temporarily fell behind, this game was a bit difficult to play, the Magic grabbed 19 rebounds in the first half, while the Celtics only had 11 times, Rivers had to find a way to make the team better in the second half of the game, rebounding protection!"

Director Zhang actively offered advice to the Celtics at halftime, but this made Yao Ming, who was sitting next to him, smile wryly.

If tactics have such a big effect, then what more stars do you need? Any tactics are played by people first, and the current situation of the Celtics is obvious, they just suffer too much on the inside, what can Rivers do?

"Defend! We have to do more defensively! Step up your running on the perimeter and don't let their perimeter find more shots, and in the second half, Mickey replaces Kendrick, and your task is to keep up with their power forward! Shi, no one under the basket can help you, you can only rely on yourself! ”

Shi Lei didn't expect others to help him, and helping him may not have a good result, and that kind of loose defensive position, after Howard attracted the pack, there must be one person on their outside who can get an open position, which is what the Celtics need to pay attention to in defense.

With Shi Lei nodding, Rivers' tactical arrangements were all completed, and with a few minutes left in the second half, the Celtics players hurried to recover their strength.

The physical problem is another concern for Celtic, who did not rest in the first half in order to bite the score, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the second half of the game.

But as long as you can win, everything is worth it, and all Celts have this realization!

Soon, the game was restarted, and the Magic had the offensive right.

Seeing that the opponent's defensive position was still so loose, Alstom, who controlled the ball, did not stop the ball, and passed the ball to Howard, who was stuck out of position on the inside.

In this game, Howard's desire to attack was very strong, and when he received the basketball, his whole body suddenly slammed into Shi Lei's defense like a bison, and Howard pushed forward with great strength, Shi Lei had enough strength, but he was still pushed back a step.

Howard's offense is so lacking in tricks, but Shi Lei, who has been controlling his weight, still can't do anything about him.

Howard turned around and burst out, and after being behind for a moment, Shi Lei could no longer catch up with his movements, and could only resign himself to trying to interfere with his shots. But if you are happy, God will usually stand on that end, and Howard once again forced Shi Lei to dunk successfully.

It was no different from the first half of the game, and Big Van Gundy watched the team's attack and was relieved to be in the chair.

Rondo dribbled past half court and immediately handed the ball to Ray. Aaron was in his hands, and then he ran to the bottom line with Alston to make a look like he was going to slip the bottom line

Pierce was running without the ball at the same time, but when he reached the other sideline, he suddenly turned around and stuck a position in the low post, and at the same time, Shi Lei suddenly pulled out to the other side.

All of a sudden, a large area of the low left was left for Ray. Arun and Tekoglu. This isn't a grade guy, Ray. Allen also lived up to the offensive opportunities his teammates created for him, and the two changes of direction shook off Turkoglou and broke straight to the Magic's free throw line.

As soon as Howard saw that his teammates were missing again, he immediately let go of Shi Lei. Well, it's not much different than the first half, Ray. Aaron immediately threw the ball out and gave it to Shi Lei, who was in the vacant position, and Shi Lei hit a ball.

After the break, the two teams began to be anxious in the first half again, the Magic could not expand the score, and the Celtics could not catch up with the difference, until the end of the third quarter, the two teams changed to the bench to accumulate strength for the tiebreaker!

The consequences of Rivers' overdraft of the main players were shown.

Thunder. Although Allen and Pierce are in good shape, they are a little older after all, and they have long been overwhelmed by such a long period of continuous competition. Shi Lei is young, but anyone who has fought against a guy like Howard for nearly three quarters can retain his physical strength, so the responsibility of leading the team to the bench was placed on Rondo's shoulders for the first time.

This is actually a great second-in-command, and the ability to lead the team alone is a bit lacking. And the anxious game has already made Rondo a little enthusiastic, if it weren't for the thunder on the field. Aaron and Shi Lei controlled the rhythm, and he had already started to have fun.

Rondo is not a selfish person, but the predicament that the team is facing now fills him with a sense of responsibility.

Responsibility is a good thing, but there are two sides to it.

In fact, Rondo's technical characteristics did not give him the ability to 1VS5.

Rondo stepped up his offense after leading the bench alone, which was a good result in the first two minutes, and with his powerful breakaway, the Celtics quickly chased the deficit back to four points and forced the Magic to make adjustments.

At this time, if Rondo can calmly analyze the situation on the field, then his passing may be more helpful to the team, but the first few successes have fascinated his eyes, which is also a common problem of many players who are not calm enough.

After the adjustment, the Magic surrounded him, and with the excellent protection of the rebounding ball, the Magic soon extended the difference to 10 points with a wave of 6:0.

"Garnett's absence has a really big impact on the Celtics, as soon as Shi Lei fills his position, there will be no one to lead the bench lineup, just like now, if Shi Lei is on the field, it is absolutely impossible for the Celtics to let the opponent expand the point difference so easily!"

The domestic media has always spared no effort to praise the players in the United States, sitting next to the water cooler, they can be called "Magic Second Generation", "Future Driver" or something, not to mention that Shi Lei is playing now, so now in the Celtics team, anyone is compared with Shi Lei, as long as he doesn't play well, Coach Zhang can always support his CBA conclusion.

But it is undeniable that the bench combat effectiveness led by Shi Lei is definitely not the same as that of the benches led by Rondo, and soon, Rivers had to be replaced by Perkins, who originally wanted to stay on the court until the fourth quarter to compete for a greater basketball advantage for the team.

This just stabilized the situation on the court, and the lack of scoring ability made Perkins not much help the team at this time.

"At the end of the third quarter, the Celtics temporarily trailed by 11 points, which is not a small difference, but it is not big, now it depends on the performance of the two sides in the fourth quarter of the game, as long as the Celtics can play their combat effectiveness in the fourth quarter, the game is actually still very suspenseful!"

These Celtics players also knew, so as soon as the fourth quarter began, Rivers replaced all the main players.

The main Celtics players, who have regained some strength, have stepped up their defense.

Shi Lei carried Howard and tried not to let the opponent occupy more advantages under the basket.

Howard is not as active as he was at the beginning now, his violent style of play that lacks technical content is actually very physically demanding, and his current situation can no longer take much advantage of Shi Lei.

Turkoglu had no choice but to pass the basketball to Lewis.

Perkins, who stayed on the field, defended out.

It was also a misalignment, and on the perimeter of the baseline, Lewis played to his nimble advantage, shaking off Perkins and hitting a shot.

"Whew!"

As soon as he came on the court, after a fierce confrontation with Howard, Shi Lei, who began to gasp again, breathed heavily, and reached out to pass Perkins' serve on the baseline.

Rondo has been rested with the substitutes, and he is replaced by House. This is also Rivers' change of formation, when the team is behind, he can no longer let Shi Lei's offensive ability be wasted on a strategy that is much less meaningful in interior tactics.

Only by moving to the outside line, Shi Lei is the biggest threat, because he is misplaced when he hits anyone. As for rebounding..... One can only pray that the team's shooting percentage is over, and now that they are so far behind, Rivers can't care about that.

The team fell behind, and Shi Lei was not impatient, and his teammates had already started to run on the outside, and he controlled the basketball for half of the court.

The Celtics' offensive tactics became like this, and the Magic's defense actually began to be passive. Aaron quickly ran out of position, and Shi Lei's pass followed.

Thunder. Allen received the ball, and Petegrew, who was defending Shi Lei, immediately shifted his defensive target.

At this time, Shi Lei suddenly cut in without the ball and fell into the thunder of the bag. Aaron didn't force his shot, and put the ball back in his hands after Shi Lei cut in.

Howard could only run out of the basket. Shi Lei quickly hit the ground and passed, and Pierce received the ball and broke through the change of defense next to Tekoglu, and the blue in the sky won the shot.
