Chapter 323: More Blossoms
What is the biggest advantage of the Pacers and Celtics playing against each other? is their No. 1 position, whether Zhang Kong stands with Rondo or Nate Robinson, it is like a misplaced offense and defense, but the demonic Zhang Jiakong has the strength not to lose to any inside player, plus the speed and agility that does not lose to any outside player, this is Zhang Kong's greatest ability to gain a foothold in the league, so whether it is playing Rondo or Robinson, Zhang Kong is no problem.
However, the Celtics do not rely on individual defense to win the world, they pay attention to team defense, so that Rondo's short height and body are not as good as Zhang Kong's disadvantage is infinitely reduced, as long as Zhang Kong dares to break through, then they dare to wrap up.
And the wheel conversion defense of the outside line and the inside line is more sharp, this is the strength of the veterans, which makes people unguardable!
After this timeout, Doug Rivers did not directly change the main players to the court as Zhang Kong thought.
Obviously, Garnett, who is old arms and legs, still needs to rest more at the end of such a season, and still leaves the bench players on the court, Nate Robinson, who was scored a goal by Zhang Kong just now, is obviously not very happy, so he found the Pacers' side when he attacked again, and after the wind dribbled the ball through the half, he did not stop to organize the team's offense.
In fact, with his vision, it is better not to tidy up, Doug Rivers brought him in, mainly for his impact, the players on the Celtics' side are too old, lacking a guy who can rush inside with his life and can play crazy at critical moments, the current situation in the eyes of Nate Robinson should be the time to play crazy hands.
Facing Watson in front of him, he made an emergency stop and made a three-point shot 26 feet away from the basket.
But before the ball could take off, it had already fallen, and a yellow jersey flashed next to it! That huge No. 88 tells Nate Robinson that you can cast two, and you're really going to be able to throw it! The empty space must have spoken.
After covering Nate Robinson's ball for the first time, Watson under had already copied the ball and handed it directly to Zhang Kong, who had already passed the half, and Zhang Kong did not rush to attack after half time, because the opponent's interior Davis and Wallace had not yet run to the opponent's half, and the attack on their side was over.
So they directly chose to go back to defense, generally such a fast attack, more impact on the inside, but unfortunately, today they encountered an alternative, after Zhang Kong arrived at the opponent's three-point point, he didn't look at the inside line at all, and threw the ball out directly!
Someone said, isn't Zhang Kong's three points stable? It's really stable, and that's when someone is defending.
Let me explain here again, the problem of Zhang Kong's three-point shooting rate, as long as there is someone defending in front of Zhang Kong, no matter how many times this person's defense is, it is 4 and a half out of ten shots, and if the opponent's defense level is high, then it will slowly decline.
It's not possible to drop to 30 percent, and as long as there is no one in front of Zhang Kong, his three-point shooting rate is still very high.
Those famous shooters in the NBA, when unguarded, especially when there is enough time to shoot, must definitely maintain a three-point shooting rate of more than 95%, just like Ray Allen, Korver, and other famous three-point players in the league.
In normal training, it is not easy to shoot five of a hundred three-pointers when there is enough time to aim! Although Zhang Kong can't do this now, but with the 90-point three-point ability of the perfect offensive card bonus, coupled with the double 82 post-dribble shooting and interference shooting, Zhang Kong can barely reach about 85% in the case of no one defending and absolute time aiming, even if he is on the court now, Zhang Kong's shooting rate is definitely above 70%, and this ball is not counted in his own hit data.
So when Zhang Kong jumped up, he was quite confident! With a flick of the wrist, the basketball flew straight towards the basket.
After the basketball spun around the basket, he still fell in unwillingly, watching Zhang Kong miraculously score four three-pointers in a row and score twelve points in a row, Doug Rivers in the distance was stunned, and the bench on the Pacers' side had already fried the pot.
All the substitutes jumped up immediately, waving the towels in their hands and yelling loudly.
"Beautiful, ......" even if it is a DJ on the scene, he can only helplessly shout Zhang Kong's name, such a goal is indeed very infectious, although the Pacers' hand is still very poor, but with Zhang Kong, they have hope.
There is only one point left, and the Celtics did not panic, after all, it is a team that has won the championship, their culture and the quality of the team are not so easy to be defeated, and in the next attack, the opponent scored the ball inside.
handed over to Glenn Davis, Davis was against Hansbru, except for some poor movement in footsteps, the rest of the size, bounce, or physical fitness, all of them were better than Taylor Hansbrough, Hansbru could only be like an angry little daughter-in-law, was forced to squeeze away by Glenn Davis, and then watched the opponent hit a layup on top of his head.
Then the two sides of the field played more peacefully, because both sides took advantage of this period of time to replace the main players.
With five minutes into the second quarter, both sides have changed their main players, and Zhang Kong has returned to the No. 1 position again, and as soon as the main force returned, Zhang Kong handed the ball to Hibbert with an inside pass after a breakthrough.
Hibbert, who originally wanted to dunk, was stopped by Garnetra, and finally had to stand helplessly on the free throw line, maybe he didn't feel good today, even the free throw, Hibbert also missed a free throw, let Perkins pick it up, pass it to Rondo, and then on the offensive end, wait until Perkins is behind, and then let him hook up seven feet from the basket.
The offensive lineup on the Celtics' side is not a joke, they are not like the Pacers' side, all the players on their court can attack, Garnett and Pierce Although they don't feel very good now, because of the empty space, they play a little early, but they can score by making free throws, which makes the Pacers win the score with great difficulty.
Soon let them offset it with free throws, and with Pierce hitting another shot, the Pacers were already 61-64 behind the opponent by three points, but then Granger stepped up, and Zhang Kong also made Rondo die at this time, although he can get three points on the outside, but this kind of offense is not allowed, when his teammates still have a hand, Zhang Kong will not be so blind.
So Zhang Kong's three shots this time did not hit, but fortunately, Granger on the inside was still quite effective at the critical moment.
actually rushed to grab the rebound, then jumped up, and dunked the basketball directly into the basket, the huge impact made the basket shake a few times, and with Granger's dunk, the Pacers also narrowed the score to one point.
And on the next offense, Hibbert singled on the inside and caused Perkins' foul again, making one of two free throws!
64-67, the Pacers chased the score back so miraculously, and the Pacers, who were obviously one level worse than the bench level, actually relied on Zhang Kong's play at the critical moment, and chased the score to a draw, which was really a bit surprising.
At this time, there are only 17 seconds left before the end of the first half, the Celtics dribble the ball, and after Rondo dribbles the ball through the half, he does not dare to rush in, Zhang Kong's defensive ability is indeed terrifying, even Rondo does not dare to deal with Zhang Kong easily.
He could only stop on the periphery to see the situation first, and after finding that he had no chance, according to international practice, he handed the ball to the leader of the Celtics' side.
kept guessing who was the core of the three of them, and after winning the championship, Ray Allen's call fell, leaving only Garnett and Pierce, if the young players were so noisy by these guys from the outside world, it might be a fuss.
But Garnett and Pierce are two guys, so they won't make a fuss about it.
And the team also solved it very well, defensively, Garnett is definitely the core of the Celtics' interior line, the gate of the interior line.
And on the offensive end, the core of the team is definitely Pierce, this is the distribution of the core, as for the leader, there is only one!
That's Pierce, at the critical time, Rondo still put the ball in Pierce's hands, and after Pierce got the ball, he faced Granger and was stunned for a moment, because Granger's defense was really in place at this time, and he didn't feel good today.
So far, he has made three three-pointers, and all but the first three-pointer he hit at the beginning has been missed.
So Granger, who knew his level in his heart, put more energy on defense, so that now Pierce wants to play Granger and can't find North, but at this time, the time of the second quarter of the game is getting closer and closer...... After Pierce tried it, he didn't dwell on it here, but directly guided the ball to the outside, and the player who received the ball on the outside at this time was Ray Allen, who was known as the lightning hand, Ray Allen had been preparing before receiving the ball, and when he received the ball, he didn't hesitate without any hesitation, and shot directly at three points! Seeing Ray Allen's movements, Zhang Kong's gaze froze.
"Spitfire Meteor!" Yes, it's Ray Allen's trick to fame, the Spitfire Meteor! Deng Tai Jones, who was standing in front of him, instantly turned into a spectator, and could only watch the basketball fly over his head, and then hit it like a meteor!
"Three points!" Looking at the three fingers raised by Ray Allen and the referee together, Zhang Kong was helpless, how to prevent this?
