At this critical juncture, the Celtics must have to give the ball to Pierce's hands, after all, among the Celtics' big three, Pierce is the most reliable singles player.

Not just among the Big Three, but across the league, Pierce's singles ability is second to none.

Pierce singled Stephen Jackson, Pierce shook twice, then accelerated, went to the middle, and Stephen Jackson quickly followed Pierce's footsteps. In terms of physical confrontation, Stephen Jackson and Pierce are slightly at a loss, but Stephen Jackson will play his life when he defends, after all, this is the Eastern Conference Finals, and the stage that countless people dream of is here, I don't know how many people want to come to this stage to play but can't.

However, physical fitness, when subtle, always produces very effective results.

Pierce broke through and took a few steps, and before Stephen Jackson could react, he hit Stephen Jackson in the chest, which can be said to be quite hard, because Stephen Jackson fell backwards directly from the impact.

There was no acting element to this, but because Stephen Jackson was moving laterally and was not prepared for such a violent impact.

Pierce's front was suddenly unguarded. Pierce, of course, didn't let go of this opportunity, and went straight to the jumper, and the ball went into the basket.

Stephen Jackson looked at the referee on the ground in confusion, how could it be that the ball didn't blow an offensive foul.

However, the referee's whistle just didn't sound.

This ball, the referee's penalty is two points valid, good ball!

85:84。

There are 34 seconds left.

The Knicks still held the initiative in the game.

Thibodeau didn't use the Knicks' last timeout at this time, and in Thibodeau's opinion, Chen Jiyuan would have arranged all this on the court.

Although this attack is important, obviously the next attack is even more important, and this last timeout will have to be used for a while.

The Knicks served the ball from the bottom line, after Chen Jiyuan gave the ball to Sessions, Sessions slowly took the ball forward, and Chen Jiyuan said to Sessions when he passed by Sessions' side, "Give me this ball." You and I are on one side, ready to catch the ball. Strike right when you get the chance. ”

Sessions nodded. Continue to dribble forward.

After half-time, Sessions motioned for Stephen Jackson, Iguodala and Love to go to the right side and wait for their chance.

And he and Chen Jiyuan were on the left side, and after Chen Jiyuan received a pass from Sessions in the high post, Sessions also retreated to the three-point line. Sessions' three-point shooting ability has been improving year by year, and now his three-point shooting percentage is at the stage where he can shoot. Thirteen percent of the three-point shooting percentage is pretty good, at this critical moment. Rondo obviously didn't dare to let Sessions be completely empty.

Chen Jiyuan face frame singles Garnett.

Chen Jiyuan's feet leaned to the right, which was Chen Jiyuan's standard action. This probe seems very simple, but when used well, it is the most practical and threatening action.

As soon as Chen Jiyuan stepped out, Garnett tried his best to keep his body still, allowing himself to watch Chen Jiyuan's next move.

At this time, Chen Jiyuan saw that Garnett did not react, so he directly followed his right foot and slapped the ball to the right. That is, the direction of the middle road.

Garnett quickly followed Chen Jiyuan's footsteps.

However, Garnett is a little older after all. Although the consciousness is still there, after the first step, it has been pulled away by Chen Jiyuan.

Chen Jiyuan's first step is very fast, and the explosive power is there. Do you believe it or not, Chen Jiyuan is a film that got rid of Garnett's defense, although there are also reasons why Garnett's physical strength can't keep up with it at the last moment.

Chen Jiyuan had a little chance to shoot, suddenly stopped, and then put on a posture to shoot, Garnett was already a little anxious because he didn't completely keep up, and when he saw Chen Jiyuan about to shoot, he naturally rushed up desperately.

As a result, when I saw that Chen Jiyuan didn't jump in the air, I played, Nima, and my heart was cold. How can this be played, but I was fooled.

Although Garnett also withdrew his hands that he originally intended to use to cover the hat in the air, and also turned his body as much as possible, wanting to avoid Chen Jiyuan, but these were obviously useless efforts.

After Chen Jiyuan made an emergency stop, he waited until Garnett flew over, crashed into Garnett, and at the same time adjusted his center of gravity as much as possible, then grabbed the ball with his right hand, assisted the direction with his left hand, and threw the ball steadily in the direction of the basket in this place where the distance was not very far.

The basketball went around the basket twice, and he didn't want to go in, but when he looked back and saw Chen Jiyuan's expression of wanting to eat people, he still obediently went in.

Before the ball is shot, the referee's whistle has already sounded. No way, the action is so big, even if the referee doesn't want to intervene in the game at this moment, he has to blow it. Otherwise, the fans of the entire arena will have to rise up and hack the referee to death.

After landing on the ground, Chen Jiyuan, after seeing the ball scored, stood in place, pounded his solid chest violently with his right hand, and roared with all his body:

“Come-on。 baby！ ”

At the same time as Chen Jiyuan roared, the fans of the entire stadium were also shouting frantically, and later the shouts of the fans gradually unified and became "Come-on".

Chen Jiyuan walked to the free throw line, took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, and then Chen Jiyuan shot the ball steadily, and the ball went in steadily.

88:84。

After scoring this three-pointer, the situation of the Knicks was as solid as a rock. There are only 18 seconds left in the game.

Rivers finally couldn't endure it at this time, and there was no way to endure it. Rivers used his last timeout.

Back on the bench, Rivers' tactics were simple, first grab a two-pointer, and then press the court to force the opponent to make mistakes. When you really can't do it, you will commit a foul.

The Knicks' tactics are simpler, just defend as before, but at this time they have to pay more attention to the opponent's three-point shot. Even if the opponent scored two points, the Knicks could still maintain the lead by four points through free throws, and as long as the gap was four points, then the Knicks were in a safe position.

The Celtics served the sideline ball and it was Rasheed Wallace who served. At such a critical moment, this veteran is also quite trustworthy.

Rasheed Wallace served the ball to Garnett, and after Garnett received the ball, he gave it directly to Pierce, who should have broken through to the inside layup according to the tactical arrangement. However, Pierce's ball was covered by Garnett and shot directly with a three-point shot.

Pierce's position was still a certain distance from the three-point line, but Pierce went against the head coach's intentions and shot a three-pointer directly.

Stephen Jackson's defense was timely, but it didn't work, and Pierce's three-pointer went in.

Big heart, no way.

If you change people, you may not dare to make a move. 88：87。

As soon as these three-pointers were scored, the Knicks' lead was only one point.

Thibodeau also had to use up the last timeout at this time.

Arrange the running tactics, let Sessions receive the ball as much as possible, and let the Knicks' foul be used on Sessions.

Serving on the sideline, Chen Jiyuan was outside the court, Lefu covered for Sessions, Sessions found an opportunity, Chen Jiyuan made a pass to the ground and gave the ball to Sessions' hands.

The moment he got the ball, Sessions' wanted to turn and go inside, but was fouled by Rondo at the first time.

There was no way, Sessions' only to go to the free throw line.

Two free throw opportunities, Sessions steadied himself, took his aim slowly, and then took the shot.

The first free throw, although it was bumpy twice, but Sessions hit it.

On the second free throw, Sessions followed the feel of the previous ball and scored again.

There are only 10 seconds left in the game. The Celtics also trailed by three-pointers, and neither side went to a timeout.

The Celtics served quickly from the outside, and Rondo dribbled through the halfcourt before giving the ball to Pierce. Garnett and Rashid Wallace both stepped forward to cover Pierce in an attempt to get Pierce to find a good three-pointer opportunity.

But at this time, it's not that simple.

The Knicks were decisive in switching defenses when they encountered a pick-and-roll screen, and Pierce had to force a three-pointer in front of Love.

But the disruption caused by Lefou's is still quite large.

The three-pointer was missed, but the rebound was picked up by Rondo, who gave the ball to Ray Allen on the perimeter.

At this time, Iguodala's bull break was seen, and Iguodala did not relax his defense against Ray Allen at all, after all, if he knew that the opponent could only shoot three-point shots, then it could basically be determined that the people who needed to defend were Pierce and Ray Allen.

The ball, although Ray Allen received the pass, Iguodala's defense was in front of him. Nothing good to chance.

Ray Allen, who forced his shot, also missed.

This time, the rebound was grabbed by Chen Jiyuan. The Celtics had no choice but to foul Chen Jiyuan.

But there are only 3 seconds left.

Chen Jiyuan walked to the free throw line and hit both free throws. Not a single chance left for the Celtics.

In three seconds, after the Celtics threw a ball blindly, the red light came on.

The Knicks successfully defended their home court once again, winning Game 2 of the series at Madison Square Square in New York.

Two wins in a row can always make people infinitely excited, and it can also make people have infinite hope for advancement.
