Chapter 117: Scheming boy
At the end of the first quarter, the Eagles played very ferociously, both offensively and defensively. But this is not the home of the Hawks, and the spring man Josh Smith swooped out a few times, but he didn't get any benefits, but he also posted a walking foul himself.
However, in the Hawks' starting lineup, only Josh Smith has the ability to break through, Josh Smith has the body and is not slow.
At the end of the first quarter, the Celtics still led by 12 points at 33-21.
Joe didn't play and happily became a cheerleader on the bench. No way, the Celtics played too smoothly in the first quarter, and he didn't have a chance to play at all.
Despite leading by 12 points, Rivers was still a little dissatisfied. The league's No. 1 team playing No. 8 in the East is only 12 points ahead, which is not his style at all. Rivers wants to eliminate the Hawks in four games and doesn't want to give the Hawks a little hope.
Judging from the first quarter, the Hawks' rookie Horford this year still has a lot of potential. Compared to Greg Oden, the technique is more comprehensive, and the body is also very good. Although he is only 208cm tall and short in the center, the Eagles play small-ball tactics, and the center's requirements for height are not too high, mainly to have good athleticism. And now Horford is the main scorer for the Hawks. Perkins' speed is tough and ineffective against this kind of athletic, technical center.
After Rivers arranged the tactics, he said that Sam Cassel replaced Tony Allen in the second quarter, Ray Allen continued to stay on the court, James Posey replaced Pierce, and Ray Allen formed a 3-point double shot, and Posey's defense is also reassuring, and it can still be done to help defend Joe Johnson if necessary. At the power forward position, Garnett continues to stay on the court, but now plays center. There is really no one on the Celtics inside, the veteran PJ Brown is 39 years old and can't keep up with the Hawks' inside, "Big Baby" Byron Davis and Perkins are an attribute, belonging to the short and fat inside, Davis will be faster, but he is too short. In the end, the position of substitute power forward fell to Joe.
Joe's height, body, and bouncing are about the same as Josh Smith's, but his skills are more well-rounded, and he is proficient in everything, and he said that playing from the number one to the number five position is not a blow.
The home crowd erupted in screams as soon as they saw Joe on the pitch, it had been too long since they had seen Joe's magical performance.
Barkley was also happy to see Joe come out, "Hahaha, JOJO is finally on the court." I'll see how Josh Smith, the spring man, deals with JOJO. He will be JOJO, and he will not be JOJO. JOJO!! Play your style! ”
Bill Wharton was clearly not as excited as Barkley, "Charles, don't get so excited. Even if JOJO plays, it's nothing, and the Celtics have a win. ”
"I'm just happy when JOJO is on the court, JOJO is on top of Josh Smith!! Let him know you're awesome. ”
Bill Wharton looked at Charles with disdain and said, "Charles, JOJO has a strong back, not a big ass like you." However, the Celtics have really had good luck this season, and there were no good scoring points on the inside except for Garnett. Now with Almighty JOJO, this problem has been solved. I don't know if he will have the previous table if he hasn't played for a month. ”
"Wait, I'm sure it will." ……
"Coach. Let me play power forward. Al Horford looked at his coach with pleading eyes (forgetting who the Eagles coach was at the time).
However, the Hawks head coach rejected Horford's request, "Al, this is the playoffs, not the regular season, and we're still behind. You are our future, how can you be so willful? Look at John Joe, I didn't say that if there were no accidents in this rookie class, he was the best one. He was put on the bench and there were no complaints. I'm just trying to say that it's okay to play reasonably, but it's the playoffs and the win is all about it. We still have a big problem. "Coach Hawks is a hard-working educator to Al Horford. Fortunately, Al Horford is just a little unwilling and is still team-oriented.
Al Horford said to Josh Smith, "Josh, that guy isn't as simple as you think. ”
Josh Smith is also a high pick, and he has more seniority than Horford, and has always considered himself to be the big man of the Hawks. Joe Johnson was traded, and Al Horford was also a rookie. He is the most qualified person for the Hawks, averaging 17.2 points per game and second on the team, 8.2 rebounds and the best on the team (the second millennium). Why do others say that Joe Johnson, who is later the Hawks, and why does the coach attach so much importance to that rookie Horford.
This time, though, Josh Smith didn't have a problem with Al Horford's words. Quite simply, he also hates Joe.
Josh Smith has been holding a grudge against Joe since the All-Star break. He has always thought that his performance this year is so good that he can't get into the All-Star team, and it shouldn't be a problem to play as a substitute. Who knew that he was still not selected this year, but John Joe, who didn't even participate in the draft, was selected, and he was actually a starter. Not only that, but that guy actually won an All-Star MVP by brushing assists.
In Josh Smith's opinion, if he participates in the All-Star Game, he may also win the MVP, why does all the benefits go to one person, it is the guy who doesn't even have a draft.
In fact, Josh Smith thinks too much about himself, and even without Joe, it will not be his turn to be an All-Star. Although the Eastern All-Stars are not as good as the West, many All-Star players have no chance to enter. But there are also many celebrities, and there are many who are more famous than Josh Smith.
Josh Smith is mainly jealous, his number is actually not bad, but he has never had a chance to make the All-Star Game. It was those people before, and he didn't complain. This time there was an extra rookie Joe, which just became his punching bag, which is why he worked so hard to defend Joe in the last game against the Celtics in the regular season, and it turned out to be a scheming boy.
