The Celtics finally scored, much to the relief of Rivers, who was standing on the sidelines.

For an older team like the Celtics, as long as they stabilize their rhythm, they have a thousand ways to slowly wear out and find opportunities to play counter-attacks that can seal the victory.

Nowhere was this more evident than in the Spurs, whose overall style of play was to slowly wear each other down with their opponents and then suddenly seal the win in the final few rounds.

Of course, this style of play has certain flaws, to put it simply, the audience doesn't like to watch it!

This is also the reason why the San Antonio ball market is not good, the overall rhythm of the game is too depressing, the opponent stumbles, and the attack of his own family is not smooth.

However, this is the way the senior team plays, and if they don't play this and let them play with physical athleticism, they are indeed past that time!

It's just that the Celtics want to play so slowly, D'Antoni doesn't agree, he immediately let the Knicks press the defense, forcing the Celtics to speed up the entire offensive conversion, although Rajon Rondo has not been led off and pressed the whole rhythm very well, but as soon as the ball leaves his hands, others do not have such a good rhythm control ability as him.

"Bang dang dang!"

The Celtics missed three consecutive attacks.

The Knicks seized the opportunity to extend the margin to 11-3.

During this time, from the moment Garnett hit that jumper, only Paul Pierce hit the basket and caused a foul on Turyaf, scoring one point on one of two free throws.

"Let's have one more goal!"

It's the Knicks' offense again, while Felton leans forward with the ball, directing the Knicks' players to move forward quickly, he feels particularly cool today, although he hasn't scored yet, but his assists have reached 3, all of which are given to Yi Jianlian's ball, and the latter can always find a way to put the ball in the basket every time he gets the ball.

No wonder Mo Williams can get into the All-Star, give me an easy, I can get in!

After Kyle Lowry, another guy who thinks that way appears.

Yi Jianlian deliberately strengthened his strategy for the basket today, one is that he is really excited to play today, and the other reason is that he can have more options to kill inside, and the Celtics' center Perkins can't limit Xiao Si at all, and the latter is another point that the Celtics can't handle on the court besides him.

The connection between Yi Jianlian and Xiao Si is equivalent to the fusion between the two strong points, as for how powerful the two atomic bombs can be when they explode together, just look at the score.

9 minutes and 40 seconds in the first quarter.

The Knicks lead 22-10.

D'Antoni looked at such a big lead and won Yi Jianlian.

At the same time that Yi Jianlian walked off the court, there were fierce cheers on the scene, facing the Celtics, the first quarter of the game was not finished, and a double-digit advantage was established, which was something that Knicks fans in the past did not dare to think of, but now, with the arrival of Yi Jianlian, all this has happened, how can they not be excited?

“mvp！”

“mvp！”

“mvp！”

After the cheers, the Knicks fans were obviously not happy, and they unanimously let out "MVP" cheers, and Channingfrye waved a towel along with these cheers, and looked exaggeratedly at Yi Jianlian who walked to the bench.

"To you, my hero!"

Channing Fry took Gatorade from the hands of the staff on the side, and happily sent it to Yi Jianlian.

Yi Jianlian listened to the words in his mouth speechlessly, and still took the bottle of Gatorade.

On the court, the Knicks' offense did not have any stagnation with Yi Jianlian's departure, but became more and more fierce, and the Celtics were pressed into the dirt and couldn't lift their heads.

"The Knicks showed their athleticism to the fullest in this game, and this kind of rhythm, once it gets up, it's not so simple to suppress it, let's see if Rivers has any solutions!"

Rivers...... There was no way, his response was still to stand on the sidelines and yell at the Celtics, but the Celtics all fell into a suppressed rhythm, and he yelled so much that he became more and more restrained, and even the poker-faced Rajon Rondo was a little anxious at the moment.

Felton found an opportunity to complete a steal on Rajon Rondo head-on, although he couldn't form a fast break, but Filton pressed the rhythm, and then a high throw to the inside of Xiao Si, Xiao Si took the ball and half turned, jumped high, and dunked the ball into the basket.

This goal, Felton's organization is very reasonable, reasonable that he is more like Rajon Rondo.

The difference came to 15 points after this goal.

With 23.4 seconds left in the first quarter, the Celtics dragged the clock to the end, and Pierce missed a strong shot, and the Celtics ended the first quarter with a 15-point deficit.

Rivers' entire defensive adjustment in the first quarter was a failure, and he simply had no ability to stop the Knicks' run-and-gun team with Yi Jianlian and Xiao Si as the arrows.

Speaking of which, Celtic's defensive ability has indeed declined this season, and the magnitude of the decline is visible to the naked eye, which has a lot to do with Thibodeau's departure.

A statistic that can be used as evidence is that the Bulls, who are currently ranked second in the East, have significantly improved their overall defensive ability since Thibodeau became the head coach compared to last season, and this improvement is one of the important reasons why the team can take off this season.

It is precisely because of the Celtics' lack of adaptability on the defensive end that the Knicks have a wave of scoring that cannot be stopped at all in the first quarter.

And this situation did not change at all in the remaining three quarters of the game tonight, the Knicks hung all the way from the first quarter to the fourth quarter, and finally the Knicks killed the Celtics with a score difference of 122-102, 20 points, Yi Jianlian won his debut as a Knicks player, and won very beautifully, and the Knicks also ended the Celtics' 7-game winning streak in the regular season for them because of this victory.

Yi Jianlian was the one who played the best in this game, with a total of 34 points, 9 rebounds and 11 assists, as well as 2 steals and a block, and only one turnover.

It is worth mentioning that Yi Jianlian's assists in this game are very different from previous assists in the Bucks, and 7 of Yi Jianlian's 10 assists tonight were passed to Xiao Si.

As long as he rushes into the free throw line and hangs one of the Celtics' interior to help Smalls get one-on-one opportunities, the latter can always complete the offense neatly in 1v1, Garnett and Perkins are completely unable to parry his impact, and Smalls is also very impressive tonight, with 27 points and 13 rebounds.
