"Shi, we should give up in order to win, like Kevin and Ray, of course, and me, we all gave up our pursuit of data, which led to our loss to Bryant in the MVP selection, but the fans will remember us, the team will too, and you will too, although you may be attacked by the media, but time will dilute everything, and the fans will give you a fair evaluation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

As soon as Rivers left, Pierce whispered in Shi Lei's ear. He was worried that Shi Lei would be ridiculed by the media because of this incident, and then he would be dissatisfied with Rivers.

This worry is not wrong, although Shi Lei seems to be in a normal state of mind now, but once the pressure from the media is too high, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not complain about Rivers who arranged this tactic. Discord between generals and coaches is a disastrous thing in a team, especially a player like Shi Lei who occupies an extremely important position in the team's team building plan, which is what Pierce does not want to see.

But what he didn't know was that this tactic was proposed by Shi Lei himself.

This was a huge misunderstanding, but it was difficult for Shi Lei to explain it to his teammates at this time: "They have been slamming me, but I think I played well. ”

"yes, great, we're 14 points ahead of them now, and that's your contribution."

"So, Paul, you don't have to worry about me at all, only we are the victors, and everything will not be a problem. And I'm worried that if you defend James in the second half, if you let him score more points, the media will say, 'Oh my gosh, you're not even a rookie!' ”

As he spoke, Shi Lei showed a narrow smile at Pierce, which finally reassured him of the worry in his heart: "What the hell, I promise I won't let him get twenty points, I have such ability!" ”

Pierce's imitation of his pre-game "nonsense" made Shi Lei shrug his shoulders: "Is it a single quarter?" ”

"How is that possible, of course..... Two sessions! ”

Although he said so, in his own heart, Pierce was still very worried, James did not lose points in this series, regardless of victory or defeat, in terms of personal data, and this was still in the face of a bag. This time, he switched to his own single defense, how much he could limit him, and Pierce didn't have much bottom in his heart.

But to Pierce's surprise, when he returned to the court, he found that defending James was not as difficult to complete as he thought.

After re-entering the game, the Cavaliers' offense, James suddenly reversed after being stuck in the main position at the three-point line, taking Pierce away and creating space for his teammates to break through.

Rondo was unguarded and was cut in by West, Tony. Allen stepped forward to make up for the defense, and the basketball was handed to Szzebiak.

"They've adjusted their tactics!"

In a hurry, Shi Lei left the basket with an arrow step, he made up the defense in time, and did not let Szczebiak get the space to shoot, almost habitually, and the basketball was handed over to James again.

This makes Mike. Brown shouted from the sidelines: "Be resolute, be resolute!" ”

James received the pass, but he was in a very bad position, and he was now on the left sideline to create space for his teammates, making it difficult for him to form a direct threat to the Celtics' basket.

After Szzebiak's pass, Shi Lei quickly returned to his defensive position, and used his body to isolate James's passing route to the inside line during the run.

Shi Lei's half-court feeding made James feel good, and he singled Pierce to shoot.

Seeing James score the ball in the commentary booth, Barkley shook his head: "If the game continues like this, the Cavaliers will not get a chance to beat the Celtics!"

Mike. Brown didn't know this, but the habits that the team has developed over the years are really not difficult to change in a short period of time, and he can only remind his players loudly after the completion of this attack: "Tactics, our tactics, the offense is more resolute!" ”

The Celtics' lineup on the court, without a good outside shooter, the Cavaliers' defenders all shrunk within the three-point line, Rondo controlled the basketball, and couldn't find a passing route to tear apart the opponent's defense, so he handed the basketball to Pierce.

Pierce dribbled straight to the basket, cut into the free-throw line and shook off James for a quick shot.

To enter, or not to enter?

Through the arc of the basketball's flight, Shi Lei worked hard to judge the final landing point of the basketball, his height is an irreparable defect on the inside, he can only rely on the judgment of the rebound, the first card in the main position in order to better complete the protection of the rebound.

The time of the basketball sliding was very short, and Shi Lei observed the direction of its landing point and moved his body.

Pierce did not get rid of James's defense, and in order to avoid his air block, he even raised the height of the shot, which made the basketball drop slightly offset.

The difference was thousands of miles, the basketball was knocked out by the basket, and Shi Lei also jumped out of thin air from under the basket.

Big Z's height is a huge advantage, but ..... Shi Lei just left a deep psychological shadow on him, and he had just returned from injury, and when Shi Lei was scrambling for rebounds, he had a trace of hesitation.

This is true for some villains who get defensive bonuses in defense because they scare opposing players.

Big Z's psychological changes made Shi Lei easily pick up the rebound, without any obstacles, and Shi Lei, who still had spare strength in the air, directly hit the basket.

"Every time I see his bounce, I can't help but sigh, if Yao can have his bounce, now the Rockets will be one of the strongest contenders for the championship."

"Yes, Kenny, I have that idea too. Every time I see Yao's height, I can't help but sigh, if I could have his height, I would definitely be the only court ruler in the nineties! ”

Barkley and Smith's "reluctance" did not last long, and they entered the regular "tearing" time again, and the elder Johnson, who was sandwiched between them, indifferently took over the responsibility of commentary: "Look at the Celtics' defense, can we stop the Cavaliers' offense." ”

"Be firm, be resolute!"

When the Cavaliers served the ball, Mike. Brown reassured on the sidelines.

This really made the Cavaliers' offense resolute, and Szczebiak, who received the pass, did not look for James this time, but endured Toney's harassment and chose to cut in.

Szzczebiak is an excellent scorer, shooting above 50 percent from the field for five years in a row, 40 percent from three-point range, and he has also developed a back-to-back kung fu during his year with the Celtics.

Toney's defensive character is tenacious and passionate, and after Szzzerbiak took two steps forward, the slow pace made his breakthrough unsustainable, at which point he turned around, turned his body back, and then suddenly turned and jumped.

After continuous movements, Tony was still shaken away, but Szebiak didn't get the space to shoot, he turned around and jumped, and saw Shi Lei's dull face.

Shi Lei's defensive range is even wider than Garnett's, mainly due to his faster movement speed. Shi Lei only left from the basket when Szzambiak turned to play with his back, but the top movement speed still allowed him to complete the defense before Szzambiak completed all his moves.

The basketball was held high above his head by Szebiak, but he had no chance to shoot, and Shi Lei's right hand was already pressed on the basketball.

Not to mention Szebiak, he didn't expect Shi Lei's defense to come up in such a timely manner, even if it was a real confrontation, he could not be Shi Lei's opponent in terms of strength. The basketball and Szebiak's whole person were pressed to the floor by Shi Lei without any resistance.

The basketball bounced out of Szebiak's hand, no one cared about what happened to him anymore, and the basketball that was jumping happily on the floor made everyone on the court intolerable "**** burned", and they rubbed themselves and pounced.

In the end, Rondo, who was "big and well", won with the help of his long arm and grabbed control of the basketball.

Rondo was quick to get off the ball, and a group of "street fighters" watched him with admiration until the basketball was sent to the basket.

The difference between the two sides was widened to 16 points at this time, and the situation was further tilted in favor of Celtic, and Shi Lei's heroic posture of blocking Szebiak was also faithfully recorded by the cameras on the scene, and began to be replayed on the big screen of the stadium.

The crowd erupted in another round of enthusiastic cheers as they completed the successful defence and the Celtics players on the court high-fived each other.

"If it hadn't been for those pre-game words, it wouldn't have been a bad game for the number 11, but no matter how good he is now, he can't be forgiven. Of course, this doesn't include Celtic fans. ”

Smith's words were not agreed by Barkley this time, and the ideas that popped up at halftime made Barkley dare not criticize Shi Lei at will.

Although Smith was deeply surprised, his professional ethics made him give up the topic that he thought was very "explosive", and refocused the commentary on the ongoing game.

"The Cavaliers are back on the attack, I wonder what their luck is this time?"

Any tiny factor can make the difference between victory and defeat. Haven't adapted to Mike yet. The Cavaliers, who adjusted Brown's midfield, began to hesitate in this offense.

The hesitant West looked at James frequently, hoping to get an answer from him, but James was also hesitating, he wanted to stand up, but his physical strength made him a little difficult.

West, who was in charge of organizing the offense, couldn't make a decision, and the basketball stopped in his hands, and Rondo's long arm was again at work, and the long extension allowed him to complete a crucial steal. (To be continued.) )
