Chapter 164: Let Rondo shoot, he can't shoot anyway
After Carman's dunk, Rivers handed in a timeout, replaced the starters, and replaced them with substitutes, but one player made Qin Zheng particularly eye-catching, and that was Ray Allen. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
You must know that Ray Allen is an All-Star level scorer, a Hall of Fame-level three-point shooter, a great off-ball player, and with him on the basketball court, the Clippers are probably more than lucky.
However, Qin Zheng still prayed that Lei Allen was not in the state today, "Not in the state, not in the state!" Qin Zheng muttered quietly.
"Qin, what are you talking about?" Davis heard Qin Zheng's whisper and asked quietly.
'I'm hoping Ray Allen isn't in form today, otherwise our substitutes won't be able to stop him from scoring.' Don't look at the current Clippers lead the Celtics by 36-33 by three points, but Ray Allen can catch up with a three-pointer.
"Why doesn't Lao Tzu's team have a Terry or Ginobili?" Another player who explodes with scoring ability, and a player who is willing to play sixth man is what every team dreams of, especially now in this league, there are basically not many players with strong ability who are willing to be sixth man, even if like Terry, he averages 35 minutes per game, which is more than the average starting time.
It's a pity that Lei Allen didn't give Qin Zheng any face, and he came up and scored a three-pointer through a no-ball run to tie the score.
"Ray's off-ball runs remind me of Reggie, their names are just one word off, but their off-ball runs are just as good." Mark Jackson exclaimed.
Ray Allen's off-ball running is an immense admiration for Mark Jackson, "I think the only thing that can match Ray in running off the ball is Hamilton. "Three players who look very thin, but they have a huge amount of energy in their bodies, as long as they wait on the basketball court, they will never stop running, running and running you will lose them, running and running you will find that he has an extra basketball in his hand I don't know when he has a basketball, and when you run you find that they have shots.
For defenders, how enviable it is to have a super ability to run off the ball, even the tough Jordan is envious of Reggie Miller's running off the ball.
"Ray, he shook off Smith, got a pass from Rondo, a three-pointer in the bottom corner, and Ray hit it again." Although Rivers changed the starters, but Rajon Rondo was still on the court, who made this game, the Celtics did not have too many players, only 10 people, but Rivers didn't believe in Bill Walker's ability, so he stayed on the bench.
Watching Lei Allen hit the court after throwing two three-pointers one after another, Qin Zheng can only envy, for Lei Allen's three-point shooting ability, Qin Zheng is very envious, because Lei Allen's three-point shooting speed is very fast, from receiving the ball to shooting never more than a second, unless he didn't catch the basketball, Lei Allen's three-point shot is fast, how fast is it, Qin Zheng has watched a documentary in the future, It is said above that Ray Allen only took more than 0.8 seconds on average from receiving the ball to shooting, less than 0.9 seconds, and he is just tall, and his shooting speed is not very fast, according to Qin Zheng's own estimate, there is at least 1.5 seconds, which is a little slow, if the defensive player's bounce is better, and the arm span is longer, maybe it can be blocked, even if it is not blocked, it will be seriously interfered with by people with this shooting speed.
In the next three minutes, Ray Allen hit another three-pointer and a mid-range shot, scoring 11 points for the Celtics in just over three minutes.
Had it not been for Butler, on the Clippers' side, who hit a three-pointer just before the end of the second quarter, the Clippers would have trailed by more than three points.
49:46, the score in the second quarter, both teams have risen a lot, although the number of iron hits is a lot, but the number of three-point shots has increased, so the score is still not low, the Celtics even scored 31 points in the second quarter, which is rare for them, but a lot of the contribution comes from Ray Allen.
At halftime, the players of the Clippers team were lying on the recliners, and they still felt a little tired, especially today was a back-to-back game, even if they were well rested, but after a game yesterday, they were still not able to recover 100% today, and they also played a defensive battle with the Celtics today, all kinds of close hand-to-hand combat, so it took more physical strength than before.
"If there is no better chance in the second half, you just give me the basketball, you go to the run, keep running, as long as you run out of the open space he will pass the basketball to you, and then we have to strengthen the defense, strengthen the defense of Pierce, Ray Allen, Garnett to me, I promise to greet him well, you just have to defend the two of them, as for Tony Allen, Rajan Rondo and Davis, Perkins and the four of them, don't care, let them shoot, especially Rajan Rondo, It's just to prevent sudden shots, boldly let him shoot, and he can't shoot anyway. When Dunleavy hadn't spoken, Qin Zheng first said the words, Dunleavy frowned and didn't say anything after hearing it, anyway, he could only say this, there are no new players in this team except for Jordan Jr. and Qin Zheng, so the tactics or something, I can understand most of them when I say it, but whether I can do it Dunleavy doesn't believe it, so it's simpler, just like Qin Zheng said.
Dunleavy supported Qin's suggestion and continued to do so.
"Mark, did you find out, since the start of the third quarter, the Clippers' defense has been more targeted, they have strengthened the defense of Pierce and Ray Allen, and let go of Perkins and Rajon Rondo." Bill Wharton watched for more than a minute before discovering the problem.
"The Clippers are very smart on their side, strengthening their defense of their main scoring point, even if it's a pack," Mark Jackson also noticed this problem, so he still praised the defense of the Clippers' side.
In their starting lineup, Perkins' main function is to defend, and Rajon Rondo's role is to organize the offense, neither of them is an offensive point, so the Clippers here are targeting the other three to let them go, especially Rajon Rondo.
Perkins didn't dare to let him go inside, after all, he was relatively close to the basket, and Perkins' low-post shooting was not so bad, so Carman followed him all the time, and if Carman was tired, Dunleavy would immediately replace him with Camby, and Jordan Jr. took turns to greet him.
The Clippers' outside trio still saw some effect after helping to defend Pierce and Ray Allen, and their shots increased significantly.
In desperation, basketball can only let Rajan Lang shoot more, "Byron, prevent his breakthrough and let him shoot, he can't shoot anyway." ”
Qin Zheng didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, Rajan Rondo suddenly became angry, knowing that he was the fourth big man of the Celtics, how could he despise himself so much.
Rajon Rondo suddenly jumped more than a meter in front of Davis, "When! "Basketball is unsurprisingly iron-clad.
Qin Zheng squeezed Garnett away and took the rebound into his arms. (To be continued.) )
