Chapter 436
After the interview, the game was almost time, Rivers announced the game roster in the locker room, and the Celtics teammates waited a little longer, and the team's staff came over to tell them that they were ready to play. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Hello audience friends, I'm Su Qun at home, and now I'm broadcasting for you the first game of the playoffs between the Celtics and the Bulls at home, and the players from both sides are starting to play!"
The players on both sides walked to the court one after another, and at this time it was obvious that the difference in the mentality of the players on both sides was obvious, the Bulls players looked bitter and serious, while the Celtics, even after experiencing a series of bad news before the game, still looked calm.
Well, their calm demeanor comes from their confidence in the strength of the team, no one thought before the game that the Bulls would cause much trouble for the Celtics, and no matter how much potential Rose has, he is after all participating in the playoffs for the first time.
However, some people are born to be made for big scenes!
After the opening, the Bulls were full of momentum, and as soon as the opening Bulls performed an aerial relay, Noah received a pass from Rose and scored an empty dunk.
And that's just the appetizer, Rose's cleverness is that he started the game up to the tempo of the team's offense!
In fact, if the point guard is capable enough, this is one of the best ways to deal with the Celtics! After a season of growth, Rondo's control of the team's offensive and defensive tempo has not improved much, and what is different about this game is that there is no Garnett in the team to help him.
When the team relied on Rondo's control, the Celtics quickly fell into the rhythm of the opposing team, which is not Celtic's forte.
Shi Lei frowned on the players' bench, and Rivers's brows were also tightened. The score between the Celtics and the Bulls alternated between them.
The Celtics' vaunted defense is out of sight, which is a red flag, but ....... Rivers had some regrets that the team gave up on Marbury prematurely.
"Shi, strengthen the attack after going on the field, we have to open the score as soon as possible!"
Shi Lei nodded, the most terrible thing about newborn calves is to give a little sunshine and it will shine. But Rose did a good job in this game and prepared well, he didn't give the Celtics more preparation to defend almost, and his innate ability to change direction without slowing down was fully utilized.
Shi Lei already had a premonition of the difficulty of this game at this time, because under such an offensive and defensive rhythm, the problem was not only the team's rhythm and defense, but also the protection of rebounding. The team's two fat insiders are enough in terms of confrontation, but in terms of flexibility, they are obviously not as good as Noah.
In the first four minutes, the Bulls had already picked up four rebounds, but the Celtics only had the great "center" Rondo to protect a backcourt rebound!
So the Celtics obviously have thunder. Allen and Pierce are two superstars, but they still don't have a lead over the Bulls.
The cheers of the fans were turbulent and even a little anxious, and they also realized that there was something wrong with the way the team opened the game today!
With three minutes left in the first quarter, Rivers finally didn't want to wait any longer and made the first personnel adjustment of the game, replacing House, Shi Lei, and Mickey Moor, and replacing Pierce, Rondo, and Perkins.
At this time, the score difference between the two sides was still a draw, 19:19.
"The Celtics made personnel changes, Shi Lei replaced Pierce on the court, and Ray . Aaron partners in the backcourt! ”
Coach Zhang immediately announced the great news to the fans all over the world, but the Bulls just didn't move, and they didn't even make any defensive adjustments.
Obviously, they just want to fight today!
This is undoubtedly the right choice, and it is also the most beneficial to them, the strength is not good, so fighting may be able to spell out a glimmer of life, so the first thing Shi Lei did on the court was to stabilize the rhythm of the game.
The man who defends Shi Lei is Ben. Gordon, all I can say is...... It's bad, but Ray. Allen's defender, John Salmons, defended well and kept up with Ray. Aaron's side.
And Rose, who didn't come up to help defend, followed House all over the court.
"You want me to attack alone, and then lure me into breaking through the inside line, so that they can move a lot of inside line to interfere with me?"
The Bulls' two interior players, Tyrus Wayne Thomas, nicknamed "T Time" and the fourth-round pick in the first round in 2006, are big men with agility and incredible jumping ability. The reach and explosiveness that can often be used to make incredible caps. Thomas has an amazing reach, is fast, and has top-notch rebounding skills and passing skills.
Drafted by the Chicago Bulls with the 9th pick in the first round, Joakim Noah is a great team player and a great defender, an energetic and scrappy blue-collar player, the team's defensive backbone, with excellent speed and explosiveness, and has great anticipation skills, he can use his height and strength against big insiders, but also can keep up with the breakaways of smaller players, he can cover the entire interior line, and give opponents great deterrence.
But Shi Lei doesn't have too many options, and the team's two interior offensive abilities are not reassuring.
As soon as he broke through to the free throw line, Noah, the "old friend" under the basket, gave up Perkins and stood under the basket with great enthusiasm, bending down and waiting for Shi Lei's arrival.
"Could it be that my dunk is too shocking?"
Stepping on the free throw line, Shi Lei quickly threw the basketball out with a quick stop. To be honest, he hadn't encountered such a defense for a long time, and that wide area was like running in the sunset, his lost youth......
The closer he gets to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage, which does not mean that Shi Lei is not confident in his shooting, but because of the defense he faces in most games and the tactical needs of the team, he has to break through more and compress the opponent's defense, so as to create more offensive opportunities.
"Good shot, Shi Lei scored two points by breaking through on the court, and now the Celtics are finally two points ahead of the Bulls!"
Look at the excitement of Coach Zhang, like the Celtics never had a lead. In fact, the Celtics still had a lead, but they were quickly wiped out by the Bulls.
The Bulls still wanted to do that, and Rose received the ball and galloped towards the Celtics halfcourt.
"Let's take a look at Celtic's defense this time, and see if there is any major change in Celtic's defense after Shi Lei comes on the court!"
