At halftime, all the Pacers were very happy, leading the Celtics by 15 points at halftime, and they felt that they had one foot in the winning camp, and at halftime, even those who were loyal fans of the Green Army outside did not have much hope, the Pacers were not the bad teams they used to be.

Since the start of this season, I have often seen them being overturned and killed by their opponents, and I have never seen them overturned by others.

For Celtic fans, today's game is getting harder and harder.

Even the cheerleaders dancing hard outside can't attract the passion of these die-hard fans.

North Shore Gardens has turned Zhang Kong and his gang into North Shore Death, and there are already a lot of grumpy fans who have left, and these fans who have left will definitely not see the next performance of the Green Army, but there are still more people who choose to stay.

"The other party is not so simple, don't take it lightly!" Looking at the excited disciples in front of him, Jim O'Brien still said with some worry, he is not alarmist, the tenacity of the Green Army is famous, no one knows how to win or lose until the last moment, basketball is round, everything is possible, not to mention that the opponent is still the Green Army who is stronger than himself in the lineup.

"Don't worry, coach, we are not the weak team we were now, and it is not easy for the Celtics to catch up with those fifteen points!" Hearing Jim O'Brien's words, TJ Ford next to him said with a smile on his face, what he said was not without reason.

"It's okay to make trouble for a while, I'm sure the other party will fight back in the second half, and when the time comes, you must resist the opponent's counterattack, otherwise the previous work will be wasted!" At this time, Zhang Kong, who was sitting in the corner of the locker room, suddenly said seriously, listening to Zhang Kong's serious words, it made the rest of the Pacers calm down, you must know that Zhang Kong doesn't talk much in normal times.

And the people who were still giggling with Jim O'Brien were stunned for a moment after hearing Zhang Kong's words, and TJ Ford, who was talking back to Jim O'Brien just now, thought that Zhang Kong was talking about him, and couldn't help but stand up suddenly.

"Zhang Kong, what are you talking about?" Looking at TJ Ford next to him, Zhang Kong ignored him, and now he has felt that the Green Army will definitely fight back in the second half...... Because of what? Because of the task, the stellar-level system task, will definitely not let Zhang Kong complete it so easily, whether it is one, it will be very difficult, whether it is to make the opponent's score not break 100, or let the player in the opposite position miss a three-point shot, this will not be too simple, the star-level system task, is not to deliver food to play.

Zhang Kong must be careful now, because after all, it has something to do with the survival point, that is, his own life, and he doesn't want to be deducted fifty.

"Zhang Kong is right, now is not the time to celebrate, you put out the fire first, he shouldn't be targeting you!" Granger next to him watched Zhang Kong and TJ-Ford freeze here, as the boss, he naturally wanted to come over to play the round.

Taking advantage of the momentum, they also pulled TJ-Ford back to the seat, but TJ-Ford still had a wave of anger in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Kong, and he understood that the original position of the first mover was TJ-Ford's, because Zhang Kong's arrival gave Zhang Kong.

Zhang Kong said thank you, and didn't even invite a meal, although Zhang Kong's reputation in the team is good, but the accident still makes him a little out of place in the team, and now TJ-Ford seems to him to just celebrate the victory in advance, but let Zhang Kong say that he can't stand this situation, so he will become popular all of a sudden.

Because of this little episode, the atmosphere in the dressing room, which was still very harmonious, instantly changed its flavor and became a little embarrassing.

At this time, Jim O'Brien's weakness of not being a famous coach was revealed, and he did not adjust his disciple's mentality in a hurry, but turned to the tactics board next to him and began to explain the tactics of the second half, but who else in the room would listen now?

The atmosphere in the room grew more and more awkward, and slowly Jim O'Brien found that no one was listening.

Just then, the arena staff outside knocked on the door, reminding the Pacers that it was time for halftime.

Everyone returned to the field with a sullen energy, Zhang Kong's lack of experience at this time, coupled with the problem of being withdrawn, appeared again, he didn't even notice that the atmosphere in the locker room was not quite right, this is a lack of emotional intelligence.

In fact, Zhang Kong made two jokes just now, and there will be no more things to comfort TJ-Ford, but even if someone reminds him, it is estimated that he will not apologize to TJ-Ford, because he feels that he has not done anything wrong, and such a surname is not a good thing.

Like the Lakers, this kind of thing often happens, but there is another teammate in the Lakers' locker room, the old fish Fisher.

When Kobe or Phil Jackson messes up the atmosphere, he's an old guy who comes up to adjust the team's aura.

But now, the boss of the Pacers is Granger, and the offensive core and defensive core are Zhang Kong's troubles, and Granger himself is introverted and stupid, so this originally small locker room problem has slowly been deposited.

Just like gunpowder, a small amount of gunpowder will become a firecracker at most, and when the gunpowder is in abundance, the firecracker will become a cannonball.

When the third quarter of the game began, the Pacers' side was obviously a little out of the aura, and those veterans on the Celtics' side didn't know that there must be something wrong with the Pacers' side.

At the beginning of the third quarter, they launched a swoop, and the defensive level of the Pacers declined, except for Zhang Kong, who is still steady, everyone else has more or less had some influence from what happened just now, and everyone knows that Zhang Kong's character is good.

But these young players can easily bring the awkward atmosphere into the game.

The decline in defensive quality allowed the Celtics to score more points, while Zhang Kong, who did not have three points, relied more on passing to organize the offense, but the shooting rate began to decline due to the influence of the atmosphere.

Cold hands are contagious, this sentence is not wrong at all, when Zhang Kong can not attack on the outside, the Pacers' hand began to decline rapidly, except for Granger hit a ball, the first half of the third quarter remains, others except Zhang Kong did not score a point, seeing that his team members did not open, that Zhang Kong had no way, and did not say hello, directly began to stuff his head and did it himself, continuous breakthroughs, not only consumed a lot of Zhang Kong's physical strength, the hit rate was not very high, Zhang Kong only scored 7 pointsand a missed free throw...... On the other hand, on the Celtics' side, except for Rondo, who still restrained Zhang Kong, the rest of the players began to attack round after round, and the three-pointers of Ray Allen and Pierce began to fire.

Garnett's interior line is also beginning to have a clear advantage, young man, unstable mentality, which is a fatal shortcoming.

It might still help if a coach taught, but is Jim O'Brien a master? There is nothing wrong with being a head coach, but if you compare it with the other old ghosts in the league, it is really not far behind.

Doug Rivers, the head coach of the Celtics, shouldn't be a particularly famous coach.

But after all, he is the one who won the head coach of the year, he still sees the problem on the Pacers' side, and as soon as he and his teammates sum up, take advantage of this time to grab as much as he can get back! The whole walker was on the court, just because of Zhang Kong's words.

Except for Zhang Kong himself, everyone else is sleepwalking, and even Jim O'Brien is infected.

Watching the Celtic side quickly chase the score, those who are still awake off the field are a little anxious.

Finally, the score is only two points away at this point, and Jim O'Brien is still sleepwalking, which is not a good situation!

At this time, Jim O'Brien's assistant coach slapped him violently, and Jim O'Brien had just come back to his senses under the assistant coach's reminder...... That's not right! Immediately reacted and immediately jumped up from the bench.

"Pause, pause!" Looking at the situation on the court, Jim O'Brien immediately called a timeout loudly, but it was still a little late, and at this time, a successful block on the Celtic side, Garnett helped Ray Allen create an opening.

Ray Allen didn't even think about shooting directly, and the basketball went straight into the Nets without any hesitation, 25-9...... With this wave of counterattacks, the Celtics directly chased back all the 15 points that the Pacers had just led, and they were also 1 point ahead! At this time, Zhang Kong finally felt that something was not quite right, and his teammates obviously didn't pay attention to the game! If one person or two people behave like this, it can be said that they are not concentrating.

But the performance of the whole team had to surprise Zhang Kong, and it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

Even now, he hasn't figured out why the team's morale has plummeted! At this time, Jim O'Brien finally reacted a little, and the problem may be Zhang Kong's body, and the game is getting more and more hanging.

"Wow, that's amazing, does anyone know what happened in the Pacers' locker room? Now the whole Pacers have lost their passion for the game, and with my years of playing experience, there must be some kind of argument going on in the locker room, haha, it can't be like the news from the Wizards recently, right? Buckley looked at the whole team of Pacers with gloomy faces, and said with some schadenfreude, hearing Buckley's words, Kenny Smith next to him gave him a very unhelpful look.

"Does anyone in your family hide a gun in the visiting team's locker room?" As soon as these words came out, Buckley immediately turned off the fire......
