Chapter 632: Fulfilling Other People's Dreams
"Coach, it's great, I didn't expect us to withstand the impact of the Grizzlies in this game, this is the first time I've seen him so depressed, this feeling is really cool."
Like Carter, Maddie played a tough game, any player will be very unhappy if he is crazy to save by a defender like Ben Wallace, but in this game, for him, the important thing is not his performance on the offensive end, if on the offensive end, his performance is not better than Carter, if in the previous Boston Celtics offensive system and Yao Ming helped him, then now he is carrying the team alone, in this case, he and Carter have the same responsibilities in today's game, It is the absolute dominance of the team's offense, or the team's offense is all on their shoulders, which is a very heavy responsibility, but for these two people, in terms of the first half, both of them did not complete very well, and the two of them let their team get the lowest half-time score of the season when they took over the team's offense in an all-round way, in this case, Maddy's performance in the first half is also a testament, even the Boston Celtics' triangle offense is already very good, But it is also very difficult to rely on a core to run the team's triangle offense, whether it is the current Maddie operation or the possible future operation of Yao Ming, it is very likely that this situation will occur, neither of these two people have the ability to lead a championship-level team alone, and perhaps there are not many such players in the history of the NBA.!
"yes, I didn't expect Stephen to be able to keep that everyone's hello, what a surprise"
In the Boston Celtics locker room, after Maddie excitedly expressed his feelings, Arenas on one side also rarely agreed with Maddy, but it was obvious that when the Boston Celtics backup guard said this, Jackson on the other side glared at him, Arenas said this no matter how he sounded, he meant to tease Jackson, at least 'contempt' for Jackson's defensive ability, but even so. Zhuang Fei is also you can clearly see from Jackson's eyes with a look of excitement and excitement, the Boston Celtics player is also very happy, for him, this game and Carter matchup is very important, the last fiasco almost put him at the lowest point in his life, if he can really help the team beat the Grizzlies in this situation. Then he himself can be liberated. In fact, before this series, he was also very aware of the pressure that the Boston Celtics are facing at the moment.
Although this team is leading in the big score, but not many people are really optimistic about them, in the eyes of many people, as long as this team does not solve Carter's problem, then this team will never be able to cross the Grizzlies this hurdle, although in the first two games, the Boston Celtics hit the Grizzlies by surprise and caused the Grizzlies to lose two games in a row, but now, this is no longer the case. The strength of the Grizzlies is all revealed, in a sense, this game is the most important battle between the Boston Celtics and the Grizzlies to crack each other's tactical system, as long as this game is won, whether it is the Boston Celtics or the Grizzlies, they will occupy the commanding heights of promotion, if the Boston Celtics win this game. Then this round of the series will become 3-1, in this case it has basically been announced that the Grizzlies have been eliminated, if the Grizzlies win this game, the final big score becomes 2-2, such a score is what the Grizzlies want to see, the Grizzlies not only tie, but also very likely to beat the Boston Celtics directly in one go. In this situation and under pressure, the Boston Celtics forward players have been under a lot of pressure.
For them, most of the responsibility for the franchise is on their shoulders, just the same. Although these people really want to choke Carter, but they didn't get their wish in the end, or even have no way, but now, with the Boston Celtics in the first half of the game, the previous game like a demon god Carter was choked, this series is back to the track of the Boston Celtics again, at least these people will not have a fear of the enemy, It can even allow the Boston Celtics to find a different rhythm of their own, but judging from the current shooting percentage of this team, the firepower of this team's new rhythm on the offensive end is too weak.
Now in the Boston Celtics locker room, the Boston Celtics players are very excited, this is a game they need, originally in these people's eyes this series is slowly out of their control, and the real control of this round of the series is even the first person who has become the Grizzlies, but what makes them unbelievable is that their head coach is really in his own hands again, although at this time the team is still in a backward situation, But as long as you watch the game, most people can clearly feel that the score of these two teams in this game is in any situation, and it is very likely that either team will take the lead.
In this case, neither of these two teams can guarantee that either team will take the lead, and such a score advantage will not show which side is superior or inferior, especially since this is the Boston Celtics on the road, and in the absence of a so-called home whistle, to be able to achieve such a result shows almost everyone that they can beat the Grizzlies. It's just that unlike these Boston Celtics players who have rebuilt their confidence, Yao Ming, the starting center of the Boston Celtics in this series, is actually quite depressed, and he is ready to continue to find face in front of Big Ben in this game, but from the current point of view, his role has been adjusted to be a rotation player in this game, although the Boston Celtics one of the leaders of the rotation has performed very well, but that is just the performance of the rotation players, for Yao Ming and people, He didn't want to be on the bench, after all, for any NBA player, they wouldn't want to do that.
It's just that this Boston Celtics and other teams are just a little too special, although Yao Ming doesn't have much thought about Zhuang Fei's decision, but it is impossible to say that there is no idea, but at this time, due to Zhuang Fei's prestige and respect for Zhuang Fei, the All-Star starter just endured his dissatisfaction. As for Yao Ming's current state of mind, Zhuang Fei is clear, but Zhuang Fei did not explain Yao Ming at halftime after the halftime, and although Yao Ming was also happy for the team in the locker room, it was very safe that Zhuang Fei could see the embarrassment in the eyes of this Chinese insider, and it would be very embarrassing for him that this game would be accurate.
Of course, at this time, the Boston Celtics are very relaxed in the locker room, and the Grizzlies on the other side are not like this, this team is a team with strong rebound ability, and this team can also win with its own star in any dangerous moment, but the same, at this time, although this team is still the same; Lead but lost his initiative, in the case of Carter's full firepower, Carter only scored 20 points in the half, and the shooting rate was less than forty percent, how can this be if things really continue to develop like this, the Grizzlies will be really difficult to do, the Grizzlies' positional battles and other offensive methods are basically all up to him, as long as he doesn't score 30, this team is still very dangerous.
It's just that now for the Grizzlies, he is slightly better is that the Grizzlies are now leading, although the advantage is not big, but it also shows that this team still occupies the initiative of the team, so in this case, there is no need for this team to change the formation in advance, but for this team, although the current lead in this game does not need to be adjusted, but it is difficult to say in the future
"Sure enough, Mr. Jerry West finally can't help but change formations?" In the commentary bench of North Shore Gardens, after the start of the second half, Kenny Smith and Barkley both hoped that one of the two coaches could create a little different surprise, especially Jerry West, he had to come up with his own way of responding to such a change as Zhuang Fei, but it was very frustrating that the Grizzlies head coach had no intention at all, in this case, the performance of these two teams in the third quarter was almost a copy of the second quarter of the two teams, only slightly different, After the start of the third quarter, Boston did not have the same iron as in the first half, but returned to normal conditions, and in the end, the Boston Celtics also tied the score after just three minutes of play in the third quarter.
"If I were Jerry I would have changed, but now he has taken Mohammed off and let Terry on the pitch to pinch Maddie while Ben Wallace is defending Jermaine O'Neal? Whether it's Maddie or Reed, the height of these two people is a hard injury when facing Maddie, but obviously in the Grizzlies' opinion, they need to replace Terry to attract defense and liberate Carter is the most important, at least more important than the team's defense, so after seeing the Grizzlies call a timeout, replace Terry, these two TNT commentators are not too surprised, but these two were directly frightened after seeing the Boston Celtics players re-play.
"What is this?" Kenny Smith looked at the Boston Celtics Russian on the court and was speechless for a moment. Barkley, on the other hand, was equally open-mouthed.
"Kirilenko for O'Neal, this is an all-small forward lineup, is this the only time in NBA history that an all-small forward lineup? We actually guessed correctly", but at this time Barkley was obviously not in the mood to guess correctly.
And in a high-end villa in Miami, an old handsome guy directly squirted the coffee in his mouth when he saw the lineup of the Celtics.
