Tang Wenlong breathed heavily, greedily absorbing oxygen, and his swollen heart and lungs re-moisturized his body through blood circulation.

Under the pressure of the Celtics' defense, every score is extremely difficult, and his physical exertion is very amazing.

"Jeff~~~~ Green!"

The DJ reiterated the names of the goalscorers, using elongated tones to highlight the spirit of the North Shore Gardens, as if to announce that this was their territory.

When it comes to the bench strength of both teams, the Celtics are actually superior, with Jeff Green, Glenn Davis, Delonte West, and big center Kostic, who was also traded from the Thunder. The 76ers also have a nine-man rotation, with Louis Williams, Jordi Meeks, Speights and Hawes.

Jeff Green, a player who entered the league in '07 and spent the first three years of his career with the SuperSonics or the Thunder, suffered a lot of injuries this year, was traded to the Celtics before the trade deadline, and so far, has been out of the bench.

Speaking of fate, it was the Celtics who picked Jeff Green with the No. 5 pick that year, but then, in a trade involving Ray Allen, he was sent to Seattle.

Tang Wenlong looked at Jeff Green's running and jumping, flying and dunking, and his physical fitness was very exciting.

It's like that's the way it is in this league, full of talented players, constantly absorbing young blood, and constantly weeding out the sadness of not meeting competitive standards, with an average career of less than five years.

The Celtics in the North Shore Gardens are formidable, and their suffocating defense is not known how many times stronger than in the regular season. Iguodala still led the 76ers to fight on the court, but he didn't have the smooth rhythm of the regular season.

"34 to 25. It's 9 points ahead. Tang Wenlong silently recited the scores on the field in his heart. A little worried. Turning his head to look at Coach Doug Collins.

Collins' face was pale, and the Celtics were fully prepared, especially for the 76ers' strongest No. 2 and No. 3 positions, and they did a very good job of defending every rotation.

Change Tang Wenlong? To change or not to change?

This is a series of wars, and Collins would like to replace Tang Wenlong on the court right now, but once Tang Wenlong is too physically exhausted, what will he do in the end? What happens in the rest of the game?

With the slightest hesitation, another three minutes passed. The official timeout for the second quarter was reached.

39 to 31, the shooting rate of both sides is obviously not as good as the first quarter, and the slow-paced game is full of help defense, card positions, and rebounds, and defense has become the main theme of this time.

"Fortunately, the opponent is not young, if only each of them was five years younger"

Tang Wenlong played, with 6 minutes and 38 seconds left in the second quarter, but the Celtics still did not replace all the Big Three, only replaced Pierce.

Pierce was triumphant. Although Tang Wenlong performed well personally, the 76ers were suppressed by the Celtics. And judging by the rhythm on the court, it will be difficult for the 76ers to get out of the North Shore Gardens this year.

"After all, ginger is still old and spicy." He thought proudly, and glanced at Tang Wenlong with some pity, the first playoff game of his life was about to lose here again, it was really sad.

Williams received the ball on the sideline and advanced with the ball, and the 76ers began to run normally after halftime.

Iguodala came off the pitch and Tang Wenlong led the team to play the game. In addition to the two of them, there are Hawes, Thaddeus Young and Meeks, a lineup that has little to no defense.

Tang Wenlong received a ball from Williams outside the three-point line, who began to run very well, and Hoyce walked over to prepare to block Tang Wenlong.

Kostic, who was defending Hoyce, immediately looked eager to try and was ready to contain Tang Wenlong.

Tang Wenlong waved his hand and immediately made a gesture to single, and Hawes immediately braked the car when he saw it, and then ran to the bottom corner, which was one of his most accurate three-point shooting areas.

Kostic was stunned, but left with Hoyce.

Pierce pouted and squirted, "Without your teammates to do the pick-and-roll, you think you can pass me?" You're just a rookie. ”

Tang Wenlong didn't respond to him, he made a crotch dribble, the basketball was exchanged from the right hand to the left hand, and then the body slammed down, as if to break to the left.

In a flash of light, Tang Wenlong's body changed direction, and the basketball was handed over to his right hand, and he leaned over, like a vigorous cheetah, rushing forward quickly!

"No matter how fast it is, it's useless!" Pierce roared angrily, he had already prepared, moved in small steps, and opened his arms to defend himself, blocking the route of Tang Wenlong's advance.

At this time, West at the other end let Williams go and wrapped Tang Wenlong.

Tang Wenlong's eyes swept away, his wrist flipped and moved, and the basketball made a folded line movement on the ground, and then hit Pierce further to the right.

His movements are as agile as a rabbit's rise and fall, and the moment he dodges Pierce is even more subtle and amazing.

Pierce's eyes widened, full of disbelief, he was able to make changes in such a small space, what the hell was the secondary change of direction in front of the body and back of the body? Is the referee sure there is no wrist flip?

The Celtics' defense was instantly messy, and after Tang Wenlong dribbled diagonally and cut in, he threw the ball vigorously and handed it to Williams.

Louis Williams slapped the ball on the floor, shot steadily, and hit! 39 to 34.

"Tang Wenlong made a meritorious contribution as soon as he came up, this breakthrough in change of direction is really beautiful, we see that the Celtics have already consciously wanted to trap Tang Wenlong, but they still let him find an opportunity." Su Qun sang praises for Tang Wenlong, and then he thought about it, so it didn't seem to be reasonable to be so biased, so he turned to support the Celts.

"Celtic should be vigilant, they are facing a group of young people, and if they fight until the last minute, the physical aspect will definitely form a constraint on themselves."

The Celtics attacked, Jeff Green missed a jumper and the rebound was taken by Hawes.

Hawes gave the ball to Louis Williams, and Luis advanced to the front court, and immediately distributed it to Tang Wenlong, who was 45 degrees, and everyone pulled it very open, and the Celtics did not dare to grab the bag directly.

Tang Wenlong was a little amused when he saw Pierce as if he was facing a great enemy, and reached out to put the ball on his waist and made a three-threat posture.

He put his right foot on the floor on tiptoe and made a tentative step.

Suddenly, Tang Wenlong's calves tightened, a force was transmitted from his waist, and the whole person rose from the ground without warning, and the bounce was amazing, and he was like a rocket launched at that moment.

"How dare you pull it out?" Pierce was shocked, no one thought that in such a fierce and tense playoffs, Tang Wenlong would take such an unreasonable offensive method.

He stretched out his hand to interfere, but the basketball had already been thrown out by Tang Wenlong.

"Probably won't go in, right? Such a shot," Pierce turned to look at the basketball.

The basketball line is very low and flat, and although the hand shape of the shot does not change, the angle and force will be different from ordinary shooting, and even the speed of rotation in the air will be different.

The air flow crossed the space, and the basketball turned into a streamer, "swishing" and passing through the net. 39 to 37!

After Tang Wenlong came on the court, he made a pass and a shot, and instantly narrowed the score gap to only two points, and this series of performances stunned the audience, and even stunned the players and coaches on the bench.

The North Shore Garden Arena fell silent for a moment, and the ease and freehand were gone.

"Is this really a rookie who just made the playoffs?" Coach Rivers' head hurts, and I'm afraid that hitting seven inches is not as lethal as Tang Wenlong.

Celtic asked for a timeout.

Pierce walked off the field with a black face, the rookie was not cute at all, and he had no respect for his old-timer. It's a breakthrough or something, which makes him very faceless

After the timeout, the game entered the second half of the second quarter, Garnett and others also returned to the court, and the 76ers left Louis Williams on the court to increase their firepower, and Iguodala continued to stay off the court to rest and adjust.

After Rondo returned to the court, the Celtics' defensive area expanded a lot, and he and Garnett had two defensive lines, one inside and one outside, covering the sky and the sun, and Tang Wenlong instantly felt like he was in a quagmire again.

The two teams attacked each other at a slow pace, constantly colliding with each other, and the offensive efficiency was very low, relying on the serve to slowly increase the score.

Before halftime, the 76ers trailed the Celtics by five points, 43-48.

looks at the score difference, but from the beginning to the present, the 76ers have always lagged behind. (To be continued.) )
