(Ask for a commuter pass)

On February 11, 2003, the NBA regular season resumed after a four-day hiatus due to the All-Star break, and as a key battle for the first place in the league, the Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards were naturally the focus of the entire regular season today. ,!

The Boston Celtics have been doing well this year, and so have the same Wizards, both of whom have been ' Dark Horse's team is not the first time to meet, in the first two meetings the two teams are a win and a defeat, it can be said that the strength is extremely close, and from the ranking of these two teams is also very able to illustrate this problem, now these two teams are the first in the East and the third in the East, and the difference between the two teams is only one game, in this case, many bookmakers' predictions before this game are also half of the winners, although the Boston Celtics can have an advantage in this battle is also extremely limited.

Of course, although the media experts in the outside world now think that this game will be very exciting and very sticky, but as the boss of the Wizards, Jordan God did not see it that way before the game, the player who said in the playoffs last season that he would score more than 40 points against the Boston Celtics was a broken promise in last year's playoffs, so the second-ranked player in the MVP list this season said his thoughts directly in an interview with the Washington Post: On February 11, the capture of North Shore Gardens, The goal is to win the regular season and MVP the regular season.

In fact, when Jordan said this, it basically represented the thoughts of many people. This year's regular season competition is fierce, in this case, if the Wizards lose to the Boston Celtics in this game, then the gap between them and the Boston Celtics will be widened to 2 games, with the current strength of these teams, if the gap is really widened by two games, then it will be too difficult to chase, it can be said that this game is related to the regular season championship for the Wizards. As for the regular season MVP, this is even more so, because Carter's championship bonus last season, coupled with the fact that the Grizzlies have a large ban in the game, but the team's record has not decreased much. It can be said that this has almost established Carter's position as the leading regular season MVP this season, and judging from this year's public opinion, there are only two players who can really pose a threat to Carter's regular season MVP, one is Jordan and the other is Duncan of the Spurs. In this case, if the Wizards or the Spurs can't beat the Grizzlies to the top, then Jordan and Duncan are unlikely to succeed in counterattacking Carter.

Jordan's goal is very clear and very simple, and the same is true for Zhuang Fei and the Celtics, although the Boston Celtics in the playoffs last season can be said to have humiliated the team in the playoffs, but the Suns at that time and the Suns this season are not the same, and more importantly, although the Boston Celtics have improved a lot this season, the Wizards' progress may be greater, after all, the Wizards are a little lower, but this season this team is very Boston stands at the same height. You must know that this team has three players selected for this year's All-Star, which is the second-most team tied with the Timberwolves and Lakers. It's just one less than the Boston Celtics' four. And more importantly for the Boston Celtics, because of the progress of the Wizards in the run-in this season, Zhuang Fei's pressing tactics against them last season are difficult to work, in this case in terms of strength, it is indeed as many people predicted, who can play their own characteristics of these two teams will win the final victory

"I know some of you are feeling tired right now"

North Shore Gardens home team dressing room on 11 February 2003. Zhuang Fei's eyes were cold, and the faces of the Boston Celtics players kept shooting, and at this time, the young players of the Boston Celtics, who were extremely energetic on weekdays, were now all looking at Zhuang Fei with a chill.

"This game is very important, I think you all know what the situation in the league is like right now" Zhuang Fei paused and then continued: "I need you to look at this game with the best attitude now, and even we can now play this game with the mentality of playing the Eastern Conference Semifinals or the Eastern Conference Finals last year, maybe then you know better which side you should work towards."

"The Wizards are very strong, and they can be said to be strong enough to win the NBA championship. In this case, this game is definitely a bad battle, so now I need to tell you that even if it is a bad game, for the Boston Celtics it is only to win, and I only need to win this game."

When Zhuang Fei said this, the Boston Celtics players on the scene looked stunned again, and at this time, Zhuang Fei completely stopped thinking about whether his words would make these players nervous, as if the Chinese head coach just made these players nervous.

"Of course, as your head coach, I fully know your strength" When Zhuang Fei said this sentence in a slightly calm tone, the faces of the Boston Celtics players also softened a little, but after that, Zhuang Fei started again.

"I believe in your ability and I believe in your quality, in my opinion we have the ability to beat any team at any time, even if we are not at our best, I believe we can win this game, I also believe that the winner of this game belongs to us, and I also believe that this year's regular season championship is also ours, and you will regain the glory that the Boston Celtics have lost for more than a decade, and you will make history this season. And this game is a new start for us to make history."

When Zhuang Fei said to the end, he almost kept shouting to these players, and these Boston Celtics players were also completely stunned to look at this extremely excited head coach, and at this time, although these players were in a daze, Zhuang Fei could clearly see the light in the eyes of these players, and it was obvious that these Boston Celtics players were also starting to get excited now.

And this is the result that Zhuang Fei wants

This match is TNT's second nationally streamed match. So the time of this game was also scheduled to be held at 10:30 p.m., and in the last national live game, the Grizzlies defeated the Miami Heat on their home court, which made the Vancouver Grizzlies' record become 44-7, surpassing the Boston Celtics at 43-7 to reach the top of the league.

It's winter in Boston, and it's still very cold in Boston, especially since the game is still played late at night, and if everything goes well, the game is over. It's almost early in the morning. Then Boston in the early hours of the morning may be even more chilling.

And it is in this environment that Boston's North Shore Garden Arena is still full of Boston Celtics fans in this game, and it can be said that today's game is still full. What's even more terrifying is that outside the arena in the North Shore Gardens, there are still nearly 10,000 fans standing in the biting cold wind and looking at the big screen in the square. This is what these guys are ready to witness together in what may be the biggest game of the regular season for the Boston Celtics.

Zhuang Fei stood in front of the bench of the Boston Celtics and watched the players of the two teams warming up on the court a little distracted, this may be the first time he has faced in the real sense. The former self', this Wizard under the leadership of D'Antoni is a complete copy of the previous Timberwolves, and if the Wizards have not yet taken shape in many previous encounters, then now, this team has been fully formed, maybe this team still does not have all the strength of the Timberwolves at its peak, but it definitely has more than ninety percent of the skills, this team and the previous Timberwolves may only be a lot worse in tactical changes, if it is just more than the main bombardment. This team may not be worse than the Timberwolves.

Ever since D'Antoni decided to leave him, Zhuang Fei had a hunch that in the future, perhaps his former assistant would become his enemy, and one of the most formidable enemies of that kind, but now, this feeling has become a reality, and now this D'Antoni has become one of the biggest stumbling blocks on the Boston Celtics' road to the championship.

And when Zhuang Fei left the Minnesota Timberwolves, he also thought about what he would do when he met the team he had built himself? At that time, Zhuang Fei had thought about how to deal with his run-and-bomb tactics. It's just that in the end, what I didn't expect was that the team's tactical system collapsed after the Timberwolves left, and it was the Wizards who really inherited the Timberwolves system, and Zhuang Fei had to face his past was no longer the Timberwolves but the Wizards.

"This is really an interesting game," Zhuang Fei muttered to himself, and at this time, Stephen Green, who was standing on his side, also heard Zhuang Fei's emotion.

Perhaps for the Boston Celtics assistant coach, he doesn't even feel as much as Zhuang Fei, because he is the concrete executor of the Timberwolves' system in the first place. Especially when it comes to seeing the white point guard of the Wizards. The assistant coach of the Boston Celtics also had a bit of a trance in his eyes, and it was clear that he remembered something else.

"This game is probably the toughest game," Stephen Green said with a little bit of composure, and the look of trance in the assistant coach's eyes was gone.

If only in terms of strength, the strength of these two teams is comparable, and such a game will be very difficult, which is inevitable, but the current game of these two teams is not only about strength.

And the difficulty of this game is not only on Zhuang Fei's side, but also on the other side of D'Antoni, it can be said that the two teams do not need to test each other at the beginning of this game.

"Stephen, do you believe it, the winner of this game must be ours" When Zhuang Fei heard Green's emotion, he looked at the young balls of the Boston Celtics on the court, but the Chinese head coach's tone was more confident

This is the second live broadcast of ccav5 today, not long ago ccav5 just ended a battle between the Timberwolves and the supersonics, and then the game between the Wizards and the Boston Celtics also began, it can be said that today's two commentators of ccav Mr. Xu and Director Zhang are also extremely busy, originally these two should have followed the Celtics and Timberwolves in the United States all the way now, but because it is now the Spring Festival in China, there is no Lantern Festival yet, so this group of people has already returned from the United States.

"Coach Zhang, the starting lineups of the two teams in this game have come out, the Boston Celtics starting China is still one of the best basketball players in our country Yao Ming, and the big forward is Jermaine O'Neal, the small forward is Maddy, Jackson and James Posey partner in the backcourt, the starting lineup of the Boston Celtics is still extremely stable from the current point of view, and the same is true for the Wizards on the other side, this year's No. 3 pick Aimar Stoudemire is the center, and the power forward is Sean Marion, The small forward is Jordan, while Hamilton and Nash are in the backcourt, from the style of these two coaches, they are the kind of coaches who don't like to rotate their main players, and the two are like a pair of masters and apprentices in this regard," Mr. Xu said with some emotion after reading the starting lineup

"Yes, these two coaches are very fond of attacking, it can be said that this game should be an extremely exciting game, the two teams are now one of the best offensive teams in the league, I think this game should give a New Year's gift to the audience in front of the Chinese TV" Director Zhang also smiled after listening to Mr. Xu's words.

"Well, the referee has thrown the ball into the air and the game is on"

Since coming to the Boston Celtics as the starting power forward and taking on the responsibility of jumping ball, Xiao Ao has rarely lost to others in terms of jump ball, and there are no people who can beat him in the league, but whether it is Garnett or Duncan or Fat O'Fat, these are the top figures in the league, and it is not a shame to lose to these people.

But this season, he has lost to the Wizards' rookie interior more than once, and although he appreciates the rookie's talent, he still can't discourage the Celtics' core interior lineman.

"Jermaine, go back to defense"

After hearing Jackson's reminder, Xiao Ao forcibly suppressed the flame in his heart, and then looked deeply at Xiao Si in front of him, and quickly returned to the defense. (To be continued.)
