Chapter 337: Losing streak
Chapter 337: Losing streak
From the beginning of the game, the rhythm was firmly controlled by the Celtics, in the first three minutes of the game, the Celtics directly hit an 11-2 attack by the Raptors, giving the Raptors a dismount, until there were 9 minutes and 06 seconds left in the first quarter of the game, Jiang Yang hit a three-pointer to help the Raptors chase the score, but this score has not yet been chased up, Ray Allen next to him also hit three points, three points is three points, no matter how difficult you play this ball!
Jiang Yang withstood Pierce's harassment, in front of Rondo, scored three points, and scored three points, and Ray Allen directly used the blocking and dismantling to block DeRozan, and hit a three-point shot in the open position, which was also three points! This has nothing to do with difficulty.
At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, the Celtics were blinded by the Raptors, although Jiang Yang blocked Rondo's left and right passing routes, and also blocked his offensive route, but he hung the ball inside, Jiang Yang had no choice at all!
It's Rondo again, after the drop ball goes in, it is directly handed to O'Neal, and after O'Neal receives the ball, he turns and makes a layup!
With 7 minutes and 50 seconds left in the first quarter of the game, Ray Allen hit a three-point shot again, and in the first four minutes, Ray Allen missed three points and threw three into it, Jay Tria had to ask for a timeout, and after the timeout came back, the main point of attack of the Raptors was still Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang hit the inside line, causing Rondo's foul, two free throws and two hits, and the score was stubbornly bitten!
However, after that, O'Neal made a foul on the inside and scored, and then Rondo assisted O'Neal to complete an aerial relay and dunk! Rondo knows Jiang Yang well, if he shoots, it is estimated that it will be a big hat, if he passes on both sides, it is estimated that Jiang Yang has more than 30% chance of successful steals, facing Jiang Yang, a guy who is a thorn.
The only point of attack is on the top of Jiang Yang's head, such a drop ball pass, he has no tricks at all, and he can't hook it.
Because this is completely a matter of the inside line, but the inside line is not strong, Jiang Yang has no choice, and Mark Gasol is playing very hard.
But desperate work doesn't mean that he can guard against O'Neal, especially when O'Neill still has physical strength.
The Celtics' selfless offense is undoubtedly revealed at this moment, there is no way, now the only offensive point of the Raptors is Jiang Yang, Jiang Yang rushed into the interior, causing Glenn Davis, who came off the bench, to foul at the same time, pull and hit, and hit a three-point success!
Then Jiang Yang caught the opponent off guard from 7 feet away, hit a running shot, and after Jiang Yang grabbed the offensive rebound, he hit a dunk.
Although Jiang Yang here could barely score, the others couldn't score, and when they didn't score, they also let the Celtics score, and at the end of the first quarter, the Raptors trailed the opponent by as many as 11 points at 20-31.
In each quarter of the game, Jiang Yang scored 14 points alone, that is to say, except for Jiang Yang, the others only scored six points, DeRozan scored two points, Mark Gasol scored two points, Barbossa scored two points, Banjani was completely defended by Garnett today and had no chance at all, in addition to these 14 points, Jiang Yang only had one assist, which was the ball passed to DeRozan at the beginning.
However, after the start of the second quarter, the Raptors' benches played well, Jiang Yang was rested, Banyani remained on the court, and Elden of the Celtics scored four points under the basket, but Banjani here finally opened and tied against Elden!
After he first scored three points, he scored a basket and scored five points in a row, chasing the score, Jiang Yang's substitute Bayless scored three points, and then made free throws, and Kreza, who was already sitting on the bench, also felt good and scored four points in a row, after Jiang Yang played, because the Raptors' benches played well, so the other party did not dare to unscrupulously wrap Jiang Yang, and when there were 4 minutes and 46 seconds left in the game, Jiang Yang hit a three-point shot, successfully helping the Raptors narrow the score to only three points! Hope lies ahead!
But then Garnett and Pierce hit three mid-range shots, and then the Sharks arrived...... After O'Neal came on the court, in less than two minutes, scored eight points in a row, and once again pulled the score away, and Banyani met such a power center, he is a dish! And although Marc Gasol can get on the pitch for a while, his main ability is also to defend rather than attack.
In this quarter, the Raptors won back five points at 32-27, and among the 32 points, Jiang Yang scored another 8 points, and at the end of the half, Jiang Yang scored a total of 222 points, 4 assists and 7 rebounds to end the first half of the game, while the Celtics led the Raptors by 6 points at 58-52.
At the beginning of the second half, back to the main period, the energetic senior activity time, facing the old guys of the Celtics, the young men of the Raptors played very hard, but they couldn't get in! At the end of the half quarter, with Garnett's free throws, the Celtics once again stretched the score to 18 points, and at the critical moment, Jiang Yang began to play! He first hit a three-point shot by himself, and then rushed into the inside, causing Garnett's foul, and at the same time dunking himself, this ball Jiang Yang flew together in front of the reasonable collision area, and directly knocked Garnett into the ball after knocking it away, it can be seen that Jiang Yang is really anxious!
But there's no way to do it in a hurry, he still can't get in...... Peja received a pass from Jiang Yang on the outside at a critical moment and scored a three-pointer, but then the big baby Glen Davis forced Amir Johnson to score a goal on the inside.
At the end of the third quarter, the Celtics were 86-74, leading the Raptors by 12 points.
At the beginning of the final quarter of the game, Glenn Davis hit first, filling the score to 88-74, and the Green Shirts took a big lead, but who expected that after that, Jiang Yang suddenly went crazy! Jiang Yang, who scored 30 points in the third quarter, shot seven three-pointers in a row in the following time.
All of them are the easiest, single-person blocking and dismantling, after blocking a vacancy, Jiang Yang directly casts!
Jiang Yang now has no confidence in his teammates, although it is easy for them to score doubles, but it is almost impossible to score twenty, and if they can't score twenty, it is useless for Jiang Yang, it is completely possible to attract the attention of the Celtics, in this case, then Jiang Yang will come by himself! There's really no way around it.
Jiang Yang can't keep hitting 5 of 7 shots all the time, all he can do is play a small one!
With Jiang Jian's 15 points, the Raptors played a wave of 26-13 attacks in six minutes, chasing the score to 101-100 in one fell swoop, and with Jiang Yang's 45 points, they finally saw the dawn of hope! The Celtics, for their part, had to ask for a timeout.
After the timeout comes back, there is another mistake on the inside! Glenn Davis and Garnett continued to attack on the inside, Jiang Yang tried to shoot three points again on the outside, although he hit the basket under the impact basket, but also gave the other party a chance, the Celtics played a sharp offense again, after six conductions on the outside, Sonny Weems appeared empty, this game, Sonny Weems did not score a point!
Pierce hit another three-pointer on the outside, and the weakness of the Raptors' No. 3 position and interior was once again revealed at this moment!
In the blink of an eye, the Celtics once again stretched the score to five points, and they didn't let the Raptors catch up.
Although Jiang Yang has been playing desperately, when Jiang Yang is caught in the bag, the Raptors have no offensive point at all!
And the defense on the inside is too poor, and it is constantly by Garnett, O'Neal, and even the big baby Glenn Davis.
In the end, with Ray Allen hitting two free throws, the Celtics scored a very crucial victory on their home court.
110-106, the Raptors finally failed to save their defeat! Jiang Yang scored 47 points and added 13 rebounds, but his assists were only a pitiful 6, the media called this thing a record low, this game Jiang Yang was the worst, there were 8 assists, but now 6...... This number of assists really makes Jiang Yangqing embarrassed......
In addition to Jiang Yang, in fact, the Raptors also had four people score double-doubles, starting center Marc Gasol, 11 points, the sixth man off the bench, Leandro Barbosa 10 points, Linas Creza 11 points, Peja who came off the bench, shot 3 of 4 three-pointers in the whole game, and scored 11 points, these four people scored a total of 42 points, Jiang Yang scored 47 points, and the remaining 17 points were shared by others.
DeMar DeRozan 3 points, Sonny Weems 0 points, Jerry Bayless 4 points, Banyani 7 points, Reggie Evans 2 points, looking at such a score, everyone doesn't know what to say, especially Banjani......
Raptors fans were counting on him to be the centerpiece of the team before the season even began......
Compared with the Raptors' misery, the Celtics played very well, with four of the five starters scoring double-doubles.
O'Neal had 16 points and 9 rebounds, and Garnett got the best of the game with 26 points and 11 rebounds, although Zhao Jiangyang was far behind.
It's who calls the MV of a single game, which is basically equal to the player with the most points of the winning team, Jiang Yang has no recruitment.
Paul Pierce 18 points, Ray Allen 17, Glen Davis who came off the bench 18 points, Rondo who started today.
Facing Jiang Yang is indeed playing very well, but his goodness is mainly reflected in passing and defending Jiang Yang.
He shot 2 of 6 from the field today, and only scored 4 points under Jiang Yang's defense, which is also a compliment to Jiang Yang's defense.
Jiang Yang's defense played really well, completely restricting Rondo, but Rondo threw eight in the air relay alone!
With this alone, Rondo got 14 assists in one game! Although Jiang Yang also forced him to make eight mistakes.
But compared to his streak and assists, eight turnovers aren't really a big deal......
"Facts have proved that Jiang Yang can be defeated! Isn't it? At the post-game press conference, the head coach of the Celtics, Doug Rivers, looked at the reporter in front of him and said with a smile, although Jiang Yang still scored 47 points unstoppably in this game! But who called his teammates too vegetable, not afraid of wolf-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates.
Mark Gasol is indeed good, but he has more energy and needs to focus on defense, he is not Pau Gasol, there is no way to directly provide Jiang Yang with enough interior firepower support, it's okay when he plays some bad teams, but he is always one level worse when he plays Celtics! The current Raptors really need to be traded, and with a Jiang Yang, they can make the playoffs, but what about after that?
"We watched the video of the last game repeatedly before the game to understand where we are, our strengths, is that the attacking points are very rich, as long as it is opened, then everything is fine!" Paul Pearce also said with a grin after the game.
"We only have one Jiang Yang, he can play the perfect game, but we can't win!" This was said by the head coach of the Raptors, Jay Tria, after the game, and Jiang Yang did not appear at the press conference at all.
Originally, Jiang Yang didn't like such an occasion, not to mention that they still lost this game, and the last madness did not save the defeat.
In this way, the Raptors' nine-game winning streak came to an abrupt end here, leaving the Celtics' home court in a gloomy manner.
But their nightmare is not over, on November 28th, in the home game with the Hawks, the Raptors once again showed their pseudo-strong side, and it may be that the Hawks learned from the last game, the Raptors lost to the Celtics.
After the opening, the two sides launched an attack, but the Raptors' offense can basically only rely on Jiang Yang, and the Eagles are the starting five-person rotation score, this is the battle between one person and a team, but Jiang Yang didn't expect his brothers too much at the beginning, and the Eagles' outside defense ability is obviously inferior to the Celtics! This also made them unable to guard against Jiang Yang.
In the first quarter of the game, the Hawks and Jiang Yang launched an attack, Jiang Yang scored 17 points in a single quarter, but the Raptors still led the opponent by 1 point in a single quarter 26-27 and entered the second quarter of the game.
The Hawks' interior has two All-Star-caliber players, Al Horford and Josh Smith.
These two guys are both defensive masters, Marc Gasol needless to say, he was not expected to attack, and the defensive Banjani threw air balls again and again, which made Jiang Yang have no way at all, Banyani's only role in the team is to attack, when he can't even attack, it's time for him to leave here!
Facing the last game in November, the Raptors played very ugly! In the second game, the Raptors' Kreza, Barbossa and other bench bandits played really well, but the Hawks still relied on team cooperation and played steadily.
Jiang Yang scored another 13 points in this quarter, and a high score of 30 points in the half, but it could not bring the Raptors a lead and victory.
52-51 The Hawks still led the Raptors by one point into the second half of the game, and the third quarter was a nightmare for the Raptors! They were in trouble on both ends of the floor, with just three field goals in a single quarter, while Hawks forward Josh Smith dominated the game and was simply omnipresent and omnipotent.
scored 9 points in a single quarter, although it is a lot worse than Jiang Yang's 11 points, but the Hawks are ahead of the Raptors!
25-19, the Raptors lost by 6 more points in this quarter! With a seven-point deficit, they entered the battle for the final quarter.
At the beginning of the final quarter, the Hawks launched a 13-6 offensive wave to stretch the margin to more than 10 points.
And the Raptors have been chasing points, but they can't catch up! In the last two minutes, Jiang Yang used excitement!
The ability to be excited, so that Jiang Yang's defense temporarily reached the level, successively blocked Horford and Josh Smith's dunks, but the players on their side had no way to score the ball, with the last moment, Jiang Yang's three points were interfered with by Josh Smith, did not hit, the Raptors lost a game again, 91-96, still only five points, two consecutive defeats!
Although there are not many losses every time, anyone with a discerning eye can see that if there is no Jiang Yang, it is estimated that the Raptors will not be able to hold up even three quarters.
Jiang Yang once again scored a high score of 51 points in this game, but what is the use? The other players scored a total of 40 points, and when such a score was spoken, Jiang Yang wanted to cry, but now it was not Jiang Yang who cried first, but Green Grandward!
Because the team had already let him trade, but this guy was indecisive, and he never traded Jiang Yang to compare the players, and now, Jiang Yang has scored 51 points, but the team's score can't break 100, and the management is finally angry!
According to the narrative that afternoon (the Raptors-Hawks game was played at 2:30 p.m. local time), the Raptors executives knocked directly on the door of Greene Granward's office and interrupted the guy who was talking to his little secretary.
Then he was slammed, and at the same time said, if you can't solve the team's problems within a week, you are ready to roll up and leave! Under pressure from the team's top management, Green Grandward took the initiative in a rare way.
In the afternoon of the same day, he began to contact the team constantly, hoping to get a new helper for Jiang Yang, originally he was going to get one in mid-December, and then wait until the All-Star Game to get one, but now it seems that the team can't wait.
In fact, not only the team, but also the fans can't wait, Jiang Yang plays like this, they have no reason to boo Jiang Yang, they can only boo the team! io! ~!
