The resilience of the 76ers is still there, and the 76ers under Wang Mingming's training are one of the toughest teams in the league.

The Celtics are also well aware of this, so when the score was caught up again, there was a hint of panic, and then they regained their composure and faced the challenge of the 76ers with a more calm attitude.

"Rajon Rondo is such a great perimeter defender."

Randy Ayes sighed, "Last year, this young man already showed great talent for outside defense, and this year, he has practiced his outside defense to the point of perfection, whether Allen wants to break through, shoot or pass, Rajon Rondo always interferes with him with a pair of big hands everywhere, and even destroys the basketball. ”

From the perspective of Randy Ayes as an assistant coach for the Pistons, Rajon Rondo's defense seems to be not far from Billups, at least the individual defense.

That's where the 76ers are struggling right now, with Iverson struggling offensively.

Iverson didn't score in the entire third quarter, and under Rondo's defense, his score was still below double digits.

Fortunately, in this quarter, Gasol, Millsap and others stepped up to share the offensive pressure of the 76ers, and pulled a game that looked like a rout back into suspense.

End of three sessions.

The Celtics lead the 76ers 67-63.

During the intermission, Wang called the players tomorrow and arranged defensive tactics for the players.

"On the offensive end, everyone must play more aggressively, don't dare to play because it is the home court of the Celtics, dare not fight, every firm breakthrough and shot you make is a decision that the team expects to see."

Wang Mingming's meaning is very clear, that is, decisive, "I don't like to see your hesitation on the field. ”

"Toot ~"

The whistle blew and the fourth quarter began.

Ray Allen holds the ball from the outside, holds the ball and plays a pick-and-roll with Glen Davis.

The Celtics have a lot of meat shield players, and in addition to Perkins in the starter, so is this Glen Davis, a player who looks more ball-shaped.

The quality of the cover was extremely high, and the 76ers defenders immediately wrapped up Ray Allen and put him under defensive pressure.

Ray Allen stepped back and hit the ground for Glen Davis, who was huge.

Davis dribbled through, and the 76ers' formation was so disorganized that when this "big baby" completed a gorgeous one-handed layup, there was no one to defend.

69-63, the Celtics led by six points.

"Don't miss anyone, keep an eye on it!" Wang Mingming shouted dissatisfied, stood up, and came to the sidelines.

At this time, at halftime, the 76ers attacked.

Millsap went to the elbow area to receive the ball, turned to face the defender, dribbled under the crotch twice in a row, and then broke to the right, folded his hands as if to shoot.

"Don't think about it!"

The defender jumped, but Millsap didn't shoot, he just made a feint to shoot.

Millsap landed on the ball, took a step to the right, and made a jumper in excellent rhythm.

Vacancy.

No.

The basketball swiped out of the frame, and Glenn Davis grabbed the rebound.

"Damn!"

Millsap clapped his hands in annoyance.

It can be said that the empty shot is very unlucky, and for the vast majority of NBA players, this is a shot that must not be missed.

Switching offense and defense, Ray Allen receives the ball and leans over to break through.

Ray Allen ignored his breakthrough ability because of the outstanding tactics of the crowd, and when he was young, Ray Allen also participated in the dunk contest, and his physical fitness is absolutely first-class among scoring guards.

Saflosa's defense was already in place, but the side-slip step was still slow, and Ray Allen made a mid-range emergency stop and pulled up a jumper.

Safrosa interferes.

"Huh!"

The basketball grabs the back edge and falls into the basket.

Hit!

"Beautiful!"

The audience cheered, the Celtics 71-63, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, actually led the 76ers by 8 points, during this period of time, the 76ers' offense was not smooth, and the Celtics' offense was smooth, this is the rhythm of winning!

After a few rounds, the Celtics extended their lead to 10 points, and Wang called a timeout tomorrow.

The morale of the 76ers hit rock bottom, reflecting the tsunami-like cheers of fans at the scene.

The crisis has loomed over the entire 76ers.

When it comes to this, the tactics that should be talked about have already been mentioned, and Wang Ming reminded his disciples that they must pay attention to the opponent's splitting and wing air cuts, so the 76ers have missed several balls.

The 76ers' defense was much better, and Korver hit a three-pointer to keep the 76ers alive.

Then, Garnett knocked Gasol away from the low post and scored, and played very hard.

Iverson made a mistake in passing, the Celtics switched offense and defense, Rondo advanced with the ball, and gave it to Ray Allen, chasing three points!

Hit!

The Celtics led by 12 points, 80-68.

There are less than 7 minutes left in the game.

Wang calls a timeout tomorrow, which is almost the last time the 76ers struggle, and if the 76ers still can't change the overall situation, the game will be completely out of suspense.

"Aaron, you have to stand up and score."

Wang Ming stared into Iverson's eyes and said solemnly word by word.

Allen Iverson frowned deeply, thinking to himself why the coach would only say such non-tactical words, at this time, it should be more analyzed, isn't it the suffocating defense of the Celtics? If he could have scored easily, he would have scored.

Wang Tomorrow saw that Iverson did not say anything for a long time, and he also fell silent.

The atmosphere suddenly became very delicate, and everyone looked at Wang Mingming, and then at Iverson.

Wang Mingming broke the deadlock and said: "This is the last chance, if we can't pull the difference to within 10 points before 5 minutes, we will completely lose the first game of the series." ”

Everyone's hearts were cold, and there was a trace of solemnity on their faces.

The suspension ends.

Iverson held the ball from the outside, and in this game, he only scored a total of 12 points, far below his average points per game in the regular season, and played a very depressed game.

Rondo had his arms outstretched, and the defense was particularly excited.

Iverson continued to dribble under his hips, feints left and right, and made it difficult to distinguish between left and right.

Pau Gasol blocked, Iverson feigned a break to the right, suddenly turned to the left, and the speed exploded, shaking off the defensive Rondo.

In the middle distance, the emergency stop with a hint of leaning back shot before Rondo chased the defense.

Or out of the ordinary!

The 76ers fans wailed.

Wang Tomorrow also sat down dejectedly and let out a long sigh.

With Iverson missing a shot, the entire 76ers seemed to have lost the fighting spirit of the last fight, and the Celtics always maintained a lead of more than 10 points.

In the end, the Celtics defeated the 76ers 91-79 to win the first game of the series.

It was regarded as the first battle of the Atlantic derby, and it came to an end in the eyes of everyone. The 76ers lost the series opener for the first time in nearly two years.

When the whistle blows, the king turns around tomorrow and leaves.

On both sides of the players' tunnel were very unfriendly greetings from Boston fans.

The fans spat out swear words and vicious language, attacking Wang Tomorrow and his 76ers disciples, and really regarded the game as a life-and-death battle.

Wang Ming was stunned and snorted coldly.
