As the game drew to a close, the Celtic triumvirate's physical fitness was problematic again, and although the desperate Saburo's style of play was strong, it would undoubtedly greatly deplete the player's physical strength.

In fact, not only on the Celtics' side, but also on the Wizards' side, the situation is not good.

In order to break away from the Celtics' defense, the Wizards had to find gaps with faster transitions and more frequent pass-and-cut runs, which also made several players on the Wizards' court run far farther than in previous games.

Thompson has been removed and replaced by substitute Cuarón. Butler, McGee as center was also replaced by Jamison.

Jamison's height as a center is a little difficult, fortunately the Celtics no longer have a strong center, this season the Celtics' starting center is the veteran O'Neal Jr., but O'Neal Jr. only played 24 games in the season before the injury season was reimbursed, and the Celtics' interior line was all Garnett and Brandon. Bass served.

Garnett doesn't like to play as a center very much, and his weight often suffers when playing against centers. Bass is only 2.03 meters tall, and his height is also a disadvantage on the inside.

In the face of such an interior combination, Jamison can play the center position and protect the rebound.

With Jamison on the field, the main point of attack on the field has become George again, Jamison's style is biased towards projection, 2.08 meters tall, Bath is very difficult to defend, can only let Garnett mark, and Bath to defend George, who is a big forward, George is still a little difficult to attack when facing Garnett, but he can play Bath, who is similar to his height, but he is at ease.

After receiving a pass from a teammate on the outside, George motioned for his teammate to open up space for him to hold the ball and play alone.

Curry and others have pulled out the outside line, including Jamison, at this time the Wizards on the court can shoot three points in five positions, in such a critical situation, the Celtics did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and they all followed, so that the inside line was completely empty.

George dribbled the ball and then swooped down to the left of Bass.

Bass reacted quickly and immediately blocked it, but at this moment, George suddenly turned around, avoided Bath and rushed to the basket in two steps, raising his hand to make a layup.

Although Buzz was passed by George, he was not completely out of position, and followed closely behind George, seeing George raise his hand to make a layup, he stretched out his hand to give George a big hot pot to taste.

George obviously wasn't going to be so easily blocked by a Buss who averaged less than one block per game in the regular season, only to see him tighten his waist and abdomen, take the basketball back into his arms, and then a pull-up layup, the basketball wiped the board and fell into the basket.

Suddenly, the audience burst into cheers.

The players on the Wizards' bench also jumped excitedly.

It was undoubtedly a beautiful goal, and George's picturesque offensive style made people think of Jordan Bryant.

In fact, George's playing style was often praised later as a combination of Kobe and Maddie, and he himself said in a TV interview that he was deliberately imitating his idol Kobe Bryant.

Rivers looked a little ugly, he looked at the scorer, 89:85, the Celtics trailed by four points, and there were three minutes left before the end of the game.

Although it seems that there is still time, the 3-minute time is converted into 24 seconds of offensive and defensive conversion, which is only 7.5 times, which is less than 4 times on the Celtics' side!

With the defensive intensity of the Wizards, it is not so simple to catch up or even overtake the gap of 4 points.

Rivers, who only held two timeouts in his hand, hesitated, but chose to call a timeout, he had to arrange the next attack, if this attack could not score, and the opponent scored again to extend the difference to 6 points, then it was basically declared a defeat for the team!

After a pause, the cheerleaders rushed to the field, but Wang Xiao's eyes were focused on the Celtics, thoughtful.

He also understands that the next attack and defense will determine the outcome of this game.

Although the big score is 3:1 ahead, Wang Xiao doesn't want to play one more game, although playing against the old guys like the Celtics can let the rookies of the Wizards learn something all the time, but Wang Xiao pays more attention to the rest time that can be obtained after ending the series as soon as possible.

You know, the next thing waiting for the Wizards is the Eastern Conference Finals, the most difficult opponent in almost the entire league, the Miami Heat.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao silently said in his heart, "Activate your skills and anticipate the enemy's victory!" ”

With the deduction of 500 victory points, the SSS item card is activated instantly to win the enemy.

Wang Xiao's eyes flickered, and the next moment the next Celtic attack appeared in his sight.

After a few seconds, he smiled and beckoned to the players, "Here's ......."

After the timeout, players from both sides restarted.

The Wizards made a change of lineup.

Curry was replaced by Beverley, while Thompson and McGee both reappeared.

At this time, the Wizards' lineup on the court is Beverley, Thompson, Leonard, George and McGee, which is enough to suffocate the defensive lineup.

Rivers' pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Beverley, who replaced Curry.

Having met in the playoffs for three consecutive seasons, Rivers is already very familiar with the Wizards' bench player, and he also remembers his mad dog-like defense vividly, a guy whose defensive ability is not inferior to Rondo's.

With only 3 minutes left in the game, I replaced Beverley to strengthen the defense, did that guy Wang Xiao guess my tactical arrangement?

In the Wizards' starting lineup, the weakest defensive ability is obviously Curry, the strongest scorer.

Rivers' tactical arrangement just now is also aimed at Curry, wanting to block and cut passes, causing Pierce and Curry to misalign with each other.

Now, Curry has been substituted, but the tactics have been laid out, and Rivers can't call the only remaining timeout to rearrange the tactics.

The Celtics served forward and Bass passed the ball to shooting guard Ray. Allen, who stands at the top of the three-point line with the ball and waits for his teammates to run.

Rondo and Pierce set up an off-ball pick-and-roll screen.

Leonard, who was marking Pierce, was blocked by Rondo, and Pierce received the pass smoothly on the outside, and it was Beverley who went up to make up for it at point guard first.

Pierce is 2.01 meters tall and Beverley is only 1.85 meters, and the two have a huge height difference, even if Beverley is tough defensively, Pierce has no reason not to fight.

Unfortunately, Pierce didn't know that in the future 2019, Beverley, who was in the Clippers, was even arranged to play against Kevin, a super scorer who is more than 2.1 meters tall, in the playoffs. Durant, and forced Durant to score only 21 and 23 points in the first two series, although Durant found his form in the next game, beating Beverley, and finally averaged 35 points per game in the entire series, and the shooting rate was as high as 56.7%, but Beverley's defense was still praised by many people, after all, it was Durant.

Although Pierce is also a strong scorer, there is still a big gap compared with Durant, and more importantly, Pierce is also 35 years old and has already passed his prime, even if the current Beverley may not be as good as the black shell who has been in the league for many years in 19, but it is by no means something that the aging Pierce can easily bully!
