344 The best in the whole game

Obviously, for the Celtics, they have to have someone to step up at this time, and the best is on the offensive end, because at a glance, the defense they were proud of before has been stirred up by Jin Feng alone after just a few minutes.

However, maybe it will be the second half of the game, because there is not much time left in the first half.

47:56!

In the end, the first half ended, and the Spurs, who were playing at home, temporarily led by 9 points.

Jin Feng scored 15 points on 8-of-13 shooting in the first half, including 10 points in the second half of the second quarter, and was the biggest contributor to the Spurs' lead.

…………

At halftime, in the Spurs locker room, Popovich rarely praised Jin Feng, he affirmed Jin Feng's performance in standing up to save the team at a critical moment, to be honest, this made Jin Feng a little surprised, after all, this is not the first time Jin Feng has done this kind of thing, perhaps, the old man realized something......

Compared with the relaxed atmosphere in the Spurs locker room, the atmosphere on the side of the visiting Celtics is much more dignified, all the players are bowing their heads, not saying a word, and the mood is not too high, because they know very well in their hearts that it is not terrible to be behind by 9 points at halftime, and what is really terrible is the feeling that their opponents are helpless now, which is too uncomfortable.

During this time, they have been soaring all the way and have achieved a hot 12-game winning streak, among them, it is undeniable that they also won some games, but none of them are like this game, which makes people feel helpless, is it that the proud 12-game winning streak is about to be ended?

"Boss, I think we should try more on the offensive end, everyone knows that fighting defense with the San Antonio Spurs really doesn't take advantage of anything, we can try to speed up, we can try three-point shooting, that's our advantage" As the boss of the team, Irving's performance in the first half was not good, he only scored 7 points in the half, which was too far from his normal level, so, at this time, he took the lead in breaking the silence in the locker room.

"I agree with Carey that we're physically draining, but what about our opponents? They have an older roster than we have, and we could have been a little more aggressive on the offensive end," Horford, the team's second leader, also spoke up at this time, and he supported Irving.

Horford's strength is undoubted, but he has a characteristic of playing, that is, he is more adaptable to the tailwind, this kind of fighting defense with the opponent and grinding the position He is really difficult to adapt to, especially in this game he was continuously taken care of by the Spurs Twin Towers on the inside, which made him even more uncomfortable.

Horford has a three-point shot, so he supports Irving's proposal.

Head coach Stevens also looked up at his players at this time, to be honest, he was a little undecided at this time, he knew what Owen meant, and he didn't deny that this was the best way he could think of at the moment, but once he decided to do so, it meant that the team gave up the defense, and there was no defense, unless the team was 100% able to open up the situation on the offensive end and be better than the opponent, otherwise, the game was completely over.

"Okay, guys, remember, we've got to run, we've got to get the rhythm of the game, we've got to play at our own pace," Stevens thought for a moment, then decided.

…………

After the halftime break, the second half began, and it was the Spurs who took the lead in attacking, Parker hit a throw, helped the Spurs score two points first, and easily extended the margin to double digits.

Immediately afterwards, the Celtics' offense, after Irving started to hold the ball from the backcourt, he started uncharacteristically quickly, and after rushing to the front court, he quickly gave the ball to Smart who had already prepared in the bottom corner of the left side, and Smart hit a three-point shot.

In the next round, the Spurs' offense, after Parker advanced to the front court with the ball, he actually easily played a match with Aldridge on the inside.

"You can see that Celtic are a little sloppy on the defensive end, or rather, they seem to have changed their tactics"

“defend!”

Stevens, who was on the sidelines, was a little dissatisfied with the team's performance on the defensive end just now, although he adjusted the offense, he shouldn't be so slack, didn't he give the Spurs an easy chance to score?

In the next few rounds, both sides had a good success rate on the offensive end, but overall, it was the Spurs who made more money because they still stuck to their original play, rather than focusing on the offensive end like the Celtics desperately put their energy on.

In this way, after the third quarter of the game, the two sides teamed up to score 58 points in a single quarter, changing the difficult situation of scoring in the first half, but in general, among the 58 points, the Spurs accounted for a significantly larger proportion, 33 points, and the Spurs took advantage of the slackness of the Celtics' defense in the third quarter and scored 33 points.

On the Celtics side, although they also scored 25 points, they couldn't laugh at this time, because the difference between them and the Spurs was getting bigger and bigger, and the third quarter ended, 72:89, the Celtics trailed the Spurs by 17 points, and it was obvious that with only one quarter left in the game, they wanted to recover 17 points from the Spurs' home court, which was simply too difficult.

It can be said that after the end of the third quarter of the game, this game is already a foregone conclusion.

99:108! In the end, the Spurs, who played at home, won the game, and they put an end to the surging Celtics, and knocked the Celtics back to their original prototype in one game.

After this game, people also sighed that the San Antonio Spurs deserve to be the obstacle of a veritable strong team in the league, and it is too difficult to overcome them.

Look at the strong teams that have been beaten by the Spurs so far this season, there are Golden State Warriors, Minnesota Timberwolves, Ohrahman Thunder in the West, Toronto Raptors in the East, plus the Celtics just now, it's really a terrifying record.

In this game with the Celtics, Jin Feng was not surprisingly the best player in the game, he scored a total of 28 points in this game, and also handed over 6 assists, 5 rebounds and 2 steals.

After this game, Jin Feng's average score per game this season came to 24.1 points, ranking 14th on the scoring list so far, although there is still a gap between James Harden and Brother Alphabet's average of 30+ per game, but it is also very scary.

In addition to being on the scoring charts, he continues to lead the three-point charts, and he also ranks fourth on the steals charts with 1.8 steals per game.

It can be said that so far this season, Jin Feng's performance has not disappointed people, he is constantly improving, and it is still rapid.
