Relying on the play of the Big Three, the Celtics firmly grasped the initiative of the game in the first half, and the young army of the 76ers, although they fought hard, did have a gap in strength, so they could only watch the opponent take the lead and could not catch up.

But fortunately, the Celtics didn't have much of a lead, and they were hovering between 6-10 points, and before the end of the first half, relying on Han Miao's whistle to break through to the layup, the 76ers narrowed the gap to 8 points again.

The performance of the main players in the first half, Coach Stevens was generally satisfied, after all, they are basically young people, and it is very good to be able to play like this with a group of old fritters.

8 points, 2 boards, 8 assists and 2 steals, this is Han Miao's data after playing 16 minutes in the first half, which may not be very gorgeous, but it is definitely the top in the first game of the rookie.

You know, that's 8 assists, many point guards who have been in the NBA for many years may not have 8 assists in a game, but Han Miao did it in only half a game! And now as long as he is willing, the double-double in this game will definitely not be able to run.

Hayward was also very good, scoring a team-high 12 points, along with four rebounds and one assist.

Whiteside was addicted to grabbing rebounds and couldn't extricate himself, scoring not much, only 6 points, but he grabbed a full 9 rebounds, 4 of which were frontcourt rebounds (bullying Perkins couldn't jump), and he had already sent 3 blocks in the half, although there was a leak because of this, but the result was quite optimistic, and Stevens didn't want to hit him more.

Young people should go to their own hands to break the blood flow, so that they can harvest and grow.

The three young men combined to score 26 points, which is very good, you must know that the 76ers scored a total of 48 points at the end of the half, and the three newcomers together are more than half.

However, the problems of the 76ers are also obvious.

That is, there is no big general on the bench.

When the main players are off the court, the 76ers' bench lineup is really a bit collapsed......

This guy is Lou Wei, he is actually a point guard in the shell of a point guard, counting on him to organize the offense, forget it, it's no different from counting on the sow to go up the tree.

Moreover, Lu Wei is also tender now, and he may still be a little organized in a few years, but now, he is really just an attacker.

And also a often brainless attacker.

At 188cm tall, he is thin and weak, and he belongs to the type that falls down at the first touch, and when the main team goes down to rest, Lu Wei faces the Celtic substitute, which is really like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.

Especially when there was an offense in the second quarter, he actually wanted to eat O'Neal! Faced with a big fat man who was still in power within a few minutes, he actually took the initiative to hit him, I really don't know whether to say that he is brave or brainless.

The result was of course tragic, O'Neal slapped Lu Wei and the others with the ball and flew out, and it was in a five-body posture, slapping the floor heavily!

Han Miao swore that at that moment, he even felt the floor shake!

As a result, Lu Wei was carried down, this level of impact was enough to make him lose his combat effectiveness, although I don't know if there will be sequelae such as concussion, but this game will definitely not be played.

Without Lu Wei, the 76ers' bench lineup that was already a bit of a pit is even weaker, and Korver's three points are very accurate, but the problem is that he needs someone to help him attract firepower and create vacant opportunities for him to play.

Who let him, can't attack with the ball!

And the rest of Capono, Hawes and others don't mention, they are basically practicing switchback and running, if it weren't for the fact that the Celtics' bench lineup is also lacking in attack power (after all, several big names are old), they may be more than single digits behind.

However, Stevens has already gotten the message he wants from this half.

The 76ers youth army is actually very strong, but the problem is that the deployment is not very reasonable.

For example, if Iguodala and Korver are replaced, Korver starts, and Iguodala goes to bring substitutes, although the starting defense will decline, the thickness of the substitute lineup will increase instantly, and with Iguodala here, this guy will not be brainless and blind himself.

An obedient Lowe is pretty good so far.

However, it is not so easy to get last year's boss to take the initiative to play on the bench, and Stevens is not Popovich who can hold a superstar like Ginobili on the bench for a lifetime.

He has just taken over the 76ers, if he puts last year's team boss on the bench at this time, not to mention whether Iguodala himself will agree, it is estimated that some old fans will protest for him, not to mention the old members of the team, I am afraid that he will not even be able to control the team in his own hands at that time, so it will not be far from class.

Some things are in a hurry, just take your time.

"In the second half, we changed the lineup, Kyle and Andre exchanged, Andre, Luis can't play now, I need you to bring the bench with all your might!"

Stevens set up a new strategy in the locker room, and this time he changed the lineup for a reason, because Lowe was injured, and if Iguodala didn't bring the bench, the 76ers bench would really be finished.

"Keller, watch your position! Pick up Han's pass at any time, Hassan, pay attention to your foul count, you're 3 now, don't be fooling around! ”

"Han, pass more resolutely in the second half, play more fast attack, anyway, Rondo can't limit you, be careful, don't entangle with those old men on the opposite side."

"Gordon, you are still the main offensive force in the second half, learn to be smarter, call a few more blocks!"

……

I have to say that Stevens is still very worthy of his annual salary of 22 million in 6 years, at least now he is conducting well and is very convincing.

Han Miao listened very carefully, he knew that the team didn't really play with all their strength in the first half, and I was afraid that the head coach would have decided to decide the outcome in the second half early on.

"Han, I think the two of us can do this and this for a while......"

Hayward suddenly came over, grabbed Han Miao's shoulder, and then said something to him, Stevens didn't stop it, obviously acquiescing.

"Are you sure?"

After listening to this, Han Miao asked with some suspicion, is this still Hayward? How would you come up with this kind of play?

"No problem, just give it a try."

Clearly, Hayward was confident.

"Okay, let's make a fuss!"

Han Miao also let it go, isn't it just to play a big game, no problem, you know, losing first and then winning has always been the royal road to victory!
