The Celtics have already packaged their center Perkins and dunk king Nate Robinson in exchange for Green, so the center has always been replaced by Garnett, not to mention, the old Garnett seems to have a lot of feeling when he plays center, and he has played very well in several games.

But after all, he is old, and his height is only slightly taller than Okafor, and there is no doubt that Okafor is slightly better than Okafor, so he gave the basketball to Wang Meng.

Opposite Wang Meng is Rondo, and he is also a player who has played a lot with Wang Meng, so he is naturally extra careful to deal with Wang Meng and meets him early.

"Don't be nervous, why are you in such a hurry." Wang Meng smiled, looking very innocent.

Rondo doesn't eat this set, Wang Meng knows how dark this girl is, and if he doesn't pay attention to it, he will probably be ridden by this girl or something, who wants to lose this person.

Gasol ran over to block and dismantle Wang Meng, Wang Meng glanced at Gasol, the two of them understood, Wang Meng used Gasol's block and dismantling to quickly break into the inside line. Rush to the basket first.

Seeing Wang Meng like this, Garnett didn't want to get used to him, so he moved a few steps and didn't block in front of Wang Meng, but if Wang Meng wanted to go to the basket or dunk, Garnett could definitely step forward and give Wang Meng a hot pot to try as soon as possible.

Sure enough, after Wang Meng jumped, Garnett also jumped up, and a pair of long, black arms pressed towards the basketball in Wang Meng's hand.

Wang Meng smiled at Garnett, then used the strength of his waist and abdomen to make his body in the air, handed the hand holding the basketball from Garnett's waist, and directly stuffed the basketball to Okafor who was playing soy sauce on the side.

"Scare ?!!" Okafor was stunned for a moment, but he was still used to jumping to dunk the basketball into the basket.

"Oka Fu!" DJ immediately shouted passionately, "Wang Meng assists!" A nice dunk. ”

Okafor smirked twice after the win, not that he didn't have knowledge, but there were really not many times to attack himself at the beginning, whether it was when Paul was there or when he was in the Bobcats, except for the time when he just entered the league as a rookie, he almost didn't score at the beginning.

He didn't know that this was Wang Meng's deliberate habit of him, otherwise Gasol, who followed behind Wang Meng, was definitely a more suitable choice.

Offense and defense switched, the Celtics attacked, Rondo passed the ball to Pierce, Pierce singled Ariza, although the truth shot was very strong, but in the face of Ariza's blind-covering defense that he learned from Battier, he was still very uncomfortable, a smooth pull-up jump shot did not score, and the basketball bounced high on the basket.

At this time, Gasol hurriedly stuck Garnett behind him, so that he could not easily enter the inside line, and the other inside line of the Celtics could already be ignored.

Okafor looked around, and was surprised to find that there was no one around to grab rebounds with him, the task of originally blocking the opponent's interior line had been rushed by Gasol to do, and in the face of the rebounds flying towards him, Okafor naturally confiscated them without hesitation.

The game had just begun, Okafor got 2 points and 1 rebound, and Wang Meng and Gasol contributed one by one.

From the very beginning of the game, the tone of this match was decided.

Wang Meng has basically focused all his attention on assists, all kinds of breakthrough points, although Rondo's defense is one of the best in the league, but it is still difficult to prevent Gasol's breakthrough after the block, Wang Meng used his breakthrough to break into the inside line when the opponent had to defend the ball.

Under such a rhythm, at the end of the first quarter of the game, Wang Meng had already contributed 6 assists, which was very efficient, but he only shot twice, one of which missed three points and only scored a layup. Of course, there will definitely be mistakes in assists, although Wang Meng got 6 assists in the first quarter, but there were 2 turnovers. Thanks to Wang Meng's assist, Belinelli on the outside made a three-pointer and caused the opponent to foul and score 5 points. Ariza also scored four points.

On the other side, Gasol on the inside shot 4 times, succeeded 2 times, scored 4 points, and only got 1 rebound, most of his energy was spent on the card position, because he stuck the Celtics' inside, Okafor got 5 rebounds in the first quarter without pressure, and also scored 6 points, such a performance has long made him happy.

Of course, such an offense lacks consistent scoring points, although Okafor, Belinelli, and Ariza scored well in the first quarter, but compared to the Celtics, it was much worse than the Celtics, the Hornets scored 26 points in the first quarter, the main players scored 21 points, and the bench scored 5 points, while the Celtics scored 32 points, leading the Hornets by 6 points in the first quarter.

As you can imagine, the Celtics have always been a defensive team, and most games will not score more than 100 points, but the first quarter of the game against the Hornets scored 32 points, and it is very difficult for the Hornets to chase points, because at the beginning of the second quarter, Ray Allen led the benches on the court.

At first, the Hornets may still be able to play against the Celtics, but by the time the benches come on, the gap between the Hornets and the Celtics is quickly widened.

Out of the previous plan, Monty also intentionally or unintentionally reduced the playing time of Wang Meng and Gasol, and correspondingly extended the playing time of Belinellio Cafor and others, so that the difference between the two sides was widened more and more.

Then Wang Meng and Gasol went on the court to chase the points frantically, but due to the huge disparity in points, the Hornets still scored 80:99 and lost the game with a gap of 19 points.

The top scorer in the game was Celtic's Pierce, who scored 24 points. Rondo had 12 points and 14 assists, Garnett had 14 points and 11 rebounds, and Ray Allen had 19 points.

On the Hornets' side, Wang Meng seemed to be playing with Rondobi for assists, and he scored 13 points and had 15 assists, which seemed to slightly overwhelm Rondo, but it didn't make any sense. Gasol had 11 points and seven rebounds.

The performance of the Hornets duo disappointed Hornets fans, but the other three starters were not bad.

Okafor had a double-double of 19 points and 14 rebounds, Belinelli 17 and Ariza 15. Although the Hornets scored in double figures with five players, they lost to the Celtics, who had six players in double figures with six substitutes. At the same time, the two-game winning streak was ended.

Due to the approval of the head coach, Wang Meng did not attend the press conference after the game and ran away as soon as the game was over.

"Whew!" Walking on the streets of New Orleans, Wang Meng exhaled a little depressedly, "It's really depressing to lose, carefully calculate that this is still the first game lost in the Hornets." ”
