Chapter 185: The finals are off to a good start

Pierce wanted to pass the ball and rushed directly to Lin Fei, Lin Fei wanted to go up to defend, but Artest, who was in charge of defending Pierce, took a step ahead to meet Pierce.

However Artest was thundered. Aaron took the first step to block, and Lin Fei didn't have any reason to meet Pierce. Just when Lin Fei was about to stick to Pierce, Pierce didn't still lose his speed and collided with Lin Fei, Lin Fei's unstable body center of gravity staggered slightly under Pierce's impact, and Pierce forcibly rushed in under the unstable center of gravity. Chandler made a very good shot before the defense and sent the ball into the basket.

As soon as the ball got into the basket, Pierce fell heavily to the floor, but Pierce, who fell on the floor, was not depressed by the pain in his butt, and the excitement of the goal made him ignore the pain, and his right fist clenched and swung down, letting out a roar of rage, showing his domineering to the Staples fans.

"That's Paul, he's the truth of the pitch, tearing apart all the defense like a tank." Kenny. Smith's expression was full of excitement.

Andre. Miller dribbled the ball to the front court, and Lin Fei and Artest ran to the front court from the left and right sides of the court.

In Rajan. Before Rondo pressed up to defend, Miller handed the ball to Lin Fei, who cut in on the left.

Holding the ball in his hand, Lin Fei did not stop at all, and raised the speed to the highest in the shortest time. Aaron got rid of it and cut straight into the inside line.

Facing Pierce, who was about to make up for the defense, Lin Fei suddenly changed direction, Pierce's center of gravity followed Lin Fei's movements and lost his balance, Lin Fei took advantage of the situation to throw off Pierce and enter the inner line.

At this time, the Celtics only had Kevin in the basket. Garnett was alone, and he was still fearless in the face of Garnett Lin Fei again, and the dunk he just faced Garnett made Lin Fei full of confidence.

Garnett looked at Lin Fei who was rushing towards him at high speed, let out a low roar, and a lateral movement stood on Lin Fei's offensive line, this time he must prevent Lin Fei's attack, and let Lin Fei know that the forbidden area he was guarding was not so easy to be violated at will.

However, Lin Fei did not slow down at all, and in Garnett's eyes, Lin Fei saw Garnett's resoluteness.

At the moment when the two were about to collide, there was a piercing friction sound on the floor of the third generation of souls and Staples, Lin Fei stopped his momentum stiffly, shook his upper body, and raised the ball with both hands to shoot the basketball, in the face of Lin Fei's sudden action, although Garnett was very sophisticated, he still subconsciously jumped up, and his whole body was used to pressing towards Lin Fei.

Seeing Garnett jumping and pressing, a sly smile flashed at the corner of Lin Fei's mouth, and he jumped with both feet on the ground, crashing directly into Garnett in the air.

"Bang!"

Although Garnett, who reacted, tried to dodge, he still couldn't prevent the two bodies from colliding together.

Lin Fei, who had been prepared, flicked his wrist and watched the basket tilt his body and throw the ball out the moment he fell backwards.

The basketball flew past Garnett's fingers to the basket behind him.

The moment the basketball enters the frame, the referee's whistle blows at the same time.

"Two points are effective, plus one free throw, the experienced Kevin was still deceived by Lin, and Lin is working hard to become the first person in the league." Barkley said smugly.

"I have to say that Lin's confidence on the offensive end now, the offense with the ball and his speed and skillful dribbling are almost perfectly combined, how can such Lin not be afraid, Doug must make a better defensive arrangement to curb Lin Fei's play, if you can't curb Lin's play, this game will be difficult for the Celtics to play unless the Big Three play well." Jeff. Van Gundy looked enviously at Mike on the sidelines. Dunleavy.

Artest pulled Lin Fei up on the floor, and Lin Fei saw Garnett's eyes that were about to devour him, "Kevin, I didn't mean to. Lin Fei said with a smile at Garnett.

"I won't let you score again, next time you come back, I will definitely give you a hot hot pot." Garnett glared at Lin Fei and said viciously.

Lin Fei did not waste the opportunity to add free throws, easily hit the ball, and as the free throws hit, the Clippers chased the difference to 16:19.

Next, both sides showed their characteristics perfectly, the Celtics triumvirate scored most of the points, and the Clippers fully recovered under the leadership of Lin Fei, the offensive and defensive transitions did not give in, the score staggered up, when there were still 4 minutes left in the first half, the Celtics and the Clippers played 42:42, and the game returned to the starting point.

At this time, Clippers head coach Mike . Dunleavy called a long timeout.

"It's no surprise that Dunleavy will be back in the starting lineup, and that's where the horror of the Clippers lies, Doug Murphy. Rivers played three minutes in the second quarter and switched to a semi-starting lineup early, and Los Angeles has been coping with the bench lineup, Kevin Paul Ray is too old, there is no doubt that this approach is likely to gain a physical advantage for the Clippers, once there is a physical advantage in the playoffs where every point counts, the Celtics will undoubtedly be more difficult. "Mark. Jackson said his opinion, and his opinion was not what Rivers was worried about, but Rivers had no choice but to envy Dunleavy's life while arranging it like this.

"Guys, you're doing a good job!" Dunleavy clapped his hands and said, "But our goal is to win, so I'm going to make changes to the lineup." ”

"Ron, you replace Wilson, PP continues to hand over to you to defend, use your body to make you feel uncomfortable everywhere in your body, this is your task!" Dunleavy said to Artest, who was drinking water.

Artest yelled at Mike. Dunleavy nodded.

"Lin, you replace JR, the team needs your offensive firepower, don't suppress him, fire as much as you can, that's your responsibility, you have the obligation to score." Dunleavy turned his head and said to Lin Fei, who nodded.

In the Celtics' rest area, Pierce was sitting in his seat taking a sip of water, sweat dripping down the tips of his hair, and the headgear on his head was already wet.

Doug. Rivers glanced at Pierce, Ray. Aaron and Garnett can only hope that their stamina will last longer.

At the end of the 100-second timeout, the players from both sides returned to the field.

At this time, Doug. Rivers was surprised to find out that the Clippers didn't bring on Andre. Miller instead replaced him with Golan. Dragic, although most of the Clippers' ball possession will be handed over to Lin Fei, but Miller's role in controlling the rhythm cannot be ignored, do you have any plans to replace Dragic in such an anxious situation? Rivers couldn't figure it out.

Also puzzled were all the fans and the four guys in the commentary seat.

Rondo took possession of the ball and came to the front court, and instead of organizing the team's attack, it went directly into the hands of Pierce.

Pierce directly held the ball forward, and the Clippers' defensive strategy did not change, as long as Pierce did not take the initiative to find someone else to defend, Artest defended Pierce.

However, this time, Pierce did not intend to compete with Artest's defense, and after a simple confrontation with Artest, he passed the ball to Kevin on the inside. Garnett.

Tyson. Chandler immediately improved his concentration, but Garnett had no intention of fighting Chandler and did not fight Tyson at all. Chandler confronted head-on, just staying in his hand for a moment before passing the ball to the outside again. In the hands of Aaron.

Thunder. After Allen received the ball, with the help of Rajan. Rondo's cover shook off Lin Fei and was about to hit the inside, when a sudden retreat passed the ball to Pierce, who ran out of the space not far away.

Because Ray Allen broke through with the help of cover, Artestt's attention was a little distracted, and he was preparing to make up for the lightning defense. Allen missed Pierce, who was supposed to defend.

"Not good!" Artest also realized that he had missed Pierce and was turning around and rushing towards Pierce, but Pierce was already holding the ball and jumping outside the three-point line.

Pierce threw the ball out in a textbook stance, and the basketball drilled into the hoop with incredible accuracy.

"The Celtics played patiently, distracting the Clippers' defense with continuous passing balls and then looking for offensive opportunities, which was time-consuming but a good offensive method, but when it came to three-pointers, I seem to have a gut feeling that a three-point rain will happen." Jeff Van Gundy said with a smile, his eyes couldn't help but look at Lin Fei on the field, his eyes were full of anticipation.

"Jeff, I feel the same way as you, maybe there will be a three-point rain coming." Barkley was as excited as if he had found a soulmate.

Looking at Pierce's gesture of three-point celebration, Lin Fei suddenly had a feeling, "Shoot three points like crazy." Thinking of doing it, Lin Fei secretly made a three-point gesture at Dragic.

Dragic nodded and quickly took the serve to push forward.

Lin Fei quickly ran to the right side of the front court, Dragic also adjusted his speed to the maximum size, and was not afraid in the face of Rondo's close defense, at the moment when he was about to collide with Rondo, Dragic's juggling pull ball turned and passed in one go, and the fans in the stadium were stunned by Dragic's pass.

"Is this a street court?" Mark. Jackson's eyes widened.

"Obviously, this is the NBA stage." Barkley responded that Dragic didn't stop his pace and rushed straight to the three-point line after passing Rondo.

And Lin Fei dodged and accelerated to get out of the way. Aaron ran around the baseline to the other sideline.

Dragic came to the three-point line to face Pierce, who was helping to defend him, and made a direct back pass, and just as Pierce was looking for a place to go for basketball, Lin Fei went around to the bottom corner.

Catch the ball and jump, at this time Ray. Alun pounced, but when they were all in the air, Lei Alun could only look up at Lin Fei's shot, and the bounce and height of the two sides made the difference at the moment extremely obvious.

Ray Allen's defense barely interfered with Lin Fei, and Lin Fei threw the ball with ease.

Looking at the arc of the basketball, Lin Fei withdrew his shooting hand, and a confident smile bloomed on the corner of his mouth.

Thunder. Aaron couldn't help but look back, only to see the basketball in a brilliant arc in the air, heading straight for its final destination.

"Huh!"

The crisp sound of entering the network quickly spread in all corners of Staples, and the baskets were flooded with white spray.

Two minutes later, Doug. Rivers couldn't sit back anymore and replaced Andre. Miller's Dragic delivered four assists in a row, and all four assists were sent to Lin Fei, who converted all four passes into three-point goals.

No one expected Dragic to play a key role in delivering four pieces of ammunition to Lin Fei's goal.

Four consecutive three-pointers helped the Clippers stretch the scorching score to eight points with two minutes left in the first half, the first time the Clippers led by more than five points in the game.

"I can clearly hear Doug's roar here, it's clear that he's angry, why didn't such a violent three-point rain calm him down? Shouldn't the rain be cool?" Charles. Barkley pretended to ask Kenny. Smith's eyes.

"Charles, the two of us have the same vision, maybe we can consider buying lottery tickets, maybe we will be the next 10 million jackpot winners." Van Gundy said with a smile.

"Jeff, that's a good idea, how about we go together after the game?" Barkley and Van Gundy sang and harmonized.

After the pause, the Celtics' defense obviously expanded a lot, and it was obvious that Lin Fei was scared by consecutive three-point shots. Aaron immediately stuck to it, and he couldn't wait for the whole person to stick to Lin Fei's body, and Lin Fei resolutely jumped to make Doug on the sidelines. Rivers' eyebrows twitched.

"Lin again? Or three points? I'm looking forward to it. "Mark. Jackson said excitedly, watching Lin Fei throw the ball.

"It's short." Kenny. Smith said excitedly.

That's when Tyson. Chandler jumped up from the middle, met the ball at 45 degrees with both hands, and steadily caught the ball and pressed it to the basket.

"It's not a three-pointer, the Celtics players are obviously scared, it's a beautiful pass, a perfect aerial relay, everyone's attention is on Lin, and the fact it's a pass, a good shot." Barkley said smugly.

With the ball in the frame, the Clippers stretched the margin to double digits, and Pierce, who was the heart of the Celtics, received Rondo's pass with a gloomy look.

The rest of the Celtics players played their part to help Pierce open a path forward. Chandler was about to go up to help defend when Garnett immediately put Tyson. Chandler was behind him.

What remained in front of Pierce was an unguarded basket.

Pierce kicked the ground with both feet, held the ball high in his right hand, and smashed the ball into the basket in a tomahawk-style dunk motion.

"Be careful!"

At this moment, Pierce heard Garnett's voice, and before Pierce could react to why he should be careful, he felt the wind behind him.

Instantly, a large yellow hand appeared in front of the basketball.

"Bang!"

The big hand made intimate contact with the basketball under his gaze, and the basketball in his hand disappeared from his hand in an instant.

Pierce's face was full of surprise, and the horror in his heart was indescribable.

"How can it be capped, how can it be?" However, Lin Fei didn't give him a chance to think.

Immediately after landing, he ran to the front court, Dragic quickly took the first step to get the ball that Lin Fei fanned out in his hand, and saw Lin Fei running quickly to the front court, without a trace of hesitation, he directly threw the basketball and fell to the front court.

And Lin Fei's speed advantage showed speechlessness. Rondo's speed is among the top in the league, but it is obviously a little worse than Lin Fei at this moment, and Lin Fei's speed once again shocked everyone who watched this game.

Lin Fei caught up with the basketball that bounced off the ground and easily dunked the ball into the basket to help the Clippers extend their lead to 12 points.

When the whistle blew in the first half, the Clippers went into the second half with a 10-point advantage.

In the second half of the game, because the two teams put their best in attack and defense, almost every attack and defense can feel the opponent's best efforts, and the fierce offensive and defensive battles again and again bring the fans who watched the game into continuous enjoyment.

As the Celtics' defense became tighter than ever, the Clippers' offense was greatly limited. In Pierce, he used his height advantage to follow Lin Fei to prevent Lin Fei from using his height advantage to fight thunder. Allen, under Pierce's personal defense and the Celtics' entire team's co-defense, Lin Fei found it difficult to find the same outside shooting opportunities as in the first half.

As the game entered the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, the Clippers still led by 10 points, and the game seemed to be completely deadlocked.

Although the Clippers still maintain their lead, if they can't pull apart as soon as possible, it is likely that things will change at the last minute.

At this time, by the Clippers' possession of the ball, Andre. Miller dribbles to the frontcourt.

As soon as Lin Fei landed at the three-point line, Pierce appeared in front of Lin Fei.

Looking at the expression on Pierce's face, the corners of Lin Fei's mouth hooked up and turned to Andre. Miller asks for the ball.

Pierce did not interfere with Lin Fei's catching of the ball, and after receiving the ball steadily, Lin Fei immediately felt the pressure exerted by Pierce behind his back, turned his back to Pierce, and held the ball in front of his chest with both hands.

"Bang!"

Lin Fei slammed backwards and turned around, facing Pierce Basketball jumping like an elf in front of Lin Fei.

showed his super ball control ability, and at the same time, Lin Fei's footsteps also moved quickly and at his own pace, so that Pierce did not dare to be careless at all.

Suddenly, Lin Fei kicked with his left foot and stepped to the right of Pierce with his right foot.

When the two people were about to make contact, Lin Fei's left hand was pulled instantly, and the whole person turned to Pierce's left side, just when Pierce moved his center of gravity to the left, Lin Fei pulled back Pierce again and gritted his teeth to adjust his center of gravity again, and Lin Fei pulled the ball back again.

When he wanted to move his center of gravity again, Pierce watched Lin Fei bypass him with a weak foot.

Bypassing Pierce, Lin Fei did not continue to move forward, but directly took a step outside the three-point line and jumped out.

A quick shot to catch up with the thunder who helped defend it. Aaron slowed down.

"It's another three-point shot, will it go in?" Clippers fans on the scene thought so almost at the same time.

Swish!

With Lin Fei's raised fist, the basketball got into the basket cleanly.

"Accurate three points, standard Lin three points! With a 13-point deficit and less than five minutes to go, the Celtics are in danger and they have to make a more aggressive attack. "Kenny. Smith is anxious for the Celtics.

However, the fierce offensive launched by the Celtics in the next game did not bring them a 100% success rate, and when the game entered the final minute, the Celtics were still trailing by 13 points. Rivers closed his eyes.

When the full-court whistle blew, the final score was 112-102 on the big screen, and the Clippers opened the Finals by 10 points.
