Sessions and Iguodala played fast, playing two and one in front, successfully passing the ball to each other, and then after attracting the attention of the defenders, Sessions assisted Iguodala to take off, and an aerial relay appeared again over the Celtics.

The continuous air relay is still quite morale-boosting.

37:47。

As soon as the point difference came to this place close to single digits, Rivers directly asked for a timeout, and he couldn't give the Knicks a chance to chase the momentum, which was Rivers' idea.

During the pause, Rivers also strengthened the defense of Chen Jiyuan, not only requiring the speed of the pack, but also requiring no matter who is by Chen Jiyuan's side, after Chen Jiyuan gets the ball, he must step forward to pack the bag as soon as possible. Don't give Chen Jiyuan a chance to feel the feeling.

The head coach of any team that plays against the Knicks has to do something to defend Chen Jiyuan, just like any team that plays against the Cavaliers, the head coach has to think about how to defend James.

Rivers deeply understands that as long as Chen Jiyuan is blocked, then the Celtics have won 80% of this game.

However, the problem is that the chances of sealing Chen Jiyuan are a little small.

If it was so simple to be blocked, Chen Jiyuan would not call himself the number one center in the league. Go home and wash up and sleep.

After the timeout is over, the game resumes.

Rivers' tactics were no problem, and they dealt with it well. However, the problem lies with Chen Jiyuan.

The Celtics attacked first, Rondo made a ground-hitting pass error, was tackled by Iguodala, and after the fast break failed, the Knicks played a positional battle.

Iguodala passes the ball to Chen Jiyuan. At this time, Garnett behind him and Ray Allen in front of him used to come to defend Chen Jiyuan, and they looked like they wouldn't give you a chance to shoot.

Chen Jiyuan's ball, holding the ball with both hands, threw it out. Ray Allen thought that Chen Jiyuan was going to give the ball to the empty Iguodala, but Ray Allen just stepped back, but suddenly found that he was shaken. Chen Jiyuan, a deceitful child, didn't pass the ball at all.

And just when Ray Allen wanted to return to Chen Jiyuan's side, Chen Jiyuan didn't give Ray Allen this opportunity, and slammed into Garnett behind him, Garnett was unprepared for a while, and was hit a little out of gravity, swaying, Chen Jiyuan seized this opportunity and made a direct self-defense jumper in the direction of the bottom line. Ray Allen couldn't reach it. And by the time Garnett stabilized his center of gravity and wanted to defend the ball, the daylily was eaten up.

Chen Jiyuan's ball, steady shot, fingers and wrists, Chen Jiyuan felt very good. It should go in.

After landing, Chen Jiyuan looked in the direction of the ball. The ball, sure enough, went in. That's how it feels.

39:47。

Chen Jiyuan clenched his fists.

When Chen Jiyuan found self-confidence, everything was a floating cloud.

At this time, Chen Jiyuan entered a state of seeing defense as a floating cloud.

The Celtics are attacking, and the momentum of the Knicks team has gradually increased. are preoccupied on defense.

When a team is behind and wants to chase points, it is not enough to just attack the goal, you must defend the opponent's attack, so that you can recover the lost points. Otherwise, it's just keeping the difference the same.

So, now, the Knicks have to maintain a high-intensity defense while opening up the offensive end.

The Celtics attacked this time and played more patiently. Rondo slowly took control of the ball, neither rushing to break through nor giving the ball away.

Wait until the Knicks' defensive patience is almost done. Rondo only started to attack, because there was not much time left, so he had to choose simple and effective tactics to complete the attack.

Rondo handed the ball to Pierce. Garnett understood immediately and came up to block the demolition.

And Pierce followed Garnett's pick-and-roll, and got rid of Stephen Jackson's defense in one step, and the defender should have changed the defense with such a good quality pick-and-roll. And the Knicks did the same. Love went to defend Pierce. However, Pierce's continuous shoulder shaking feints, coupled with the change in footsteps, made Lefu a little blind. I could only watch Pierce shoot a mid-range.

39:49。

Thibodeau also asked for a timeout at this time, such a good momentum of chasing points, you can't be chased back by the opponent just because you don't do well on the defensive end.

Thibodeau finally made a decision during this timeout to let Love defend Perkins and Chen Jiyuan defend Garnett. This change instantly turned the team's defensive system upside down.

Thibodeau said to Chen Jiyuan: "You go to defend Garnett, and after the block, if it is Ray Allen and Pierce, change the defense as soon as possible." If it's Rondo, let Sessions step back and bypass the defenders to chase after him. At the same time, Chen, remember, although you may be pulled out of the interior at any time, you still have to contribute to the team's defense and defense work as much as possible. Defend as much as you can. ”

Chen Jiyuan nodded in understanding.

His task has been heavier, but Chen Jiyuan doesn't feel anything. As the leader of the team, you should do more than others.

However, Chen Jiyuan was still silently crying at this time, hoping that Lefu could increase his speed. There's no way to expect you to boost your burst, but your speed can still be enhanced.

Back on the field.

Chen Jiyuan finally directly opposed Garnett. This scene is really rare, after all, Garnett is the fourth position, and Chen Jiyuan is the fifth position. What's more, Chen Jiyuan often defends the opponent's weak interior offensive ability, and then waits for the opportunity to carry out more defensive behaviors. This kind of defensive system is the general direction of the Knicks. And the person who set this general direction is none other than head coach Thibodeau. Although Lefu has been working hard to train his defense, it is not an overnight thing. During college, Lefu didn't know what defense was, and now he can do this, and under Thibodeau's tutelage, he has grown so fast, which is already quite good. You can't be unsatisfied.

Because of this, Thibodeau wants to cover up the shortcomings of Lefu and give full play to Lefou's points, which are strong and familiar. The low post players used to defend the opponent are suitable. And Chen Jiyuan's movement speed is definitely a top existence in the center, and his awareness of assisting in defense is also quite good. That's why Thibodeau arranged it this way.

But it was clear that Rivers saw through Thibodeau's intentions, so Garnett was no longer primarily attacking in the low post in this second game, but the threat in the low post had to be guaranteed. As a result, Garnett often asks for the ball in the low post, but he really doesn't play much. Once Garnett mentions the high post for his teammates to block and pick-and-roll, Love tends to be a little difficult to deal with.

Although this weakness will be overlooked because Chen Jiyuan is defending behind him. However, if you shoot a three-point shot or a mid-range shot after blocking and dismantling, then it will also cause some trouble for the Knicks. Lefu can chase, but not all the time.

The Knicks attacked again, Chen Jiyuan wanted to attack with the ball, but this time the Celtics didn't even give Chen Jiyuan a chance to catch the ball, when Chen Jiyuan stuck his position, he felt that the whole Celtics team was paying attention to the movement here, and Pierce nearby quickly stuck in front of Chen Jiyuan. Organize Chen Jiyuan to catch the ball.

Sessions immediately gave the ball to Stephen Jackson, who cut inside. Stephen Jackson saw Pierce go to wrap Chen Jiyuan, and chose to cut inside for the first time, at this time, whether he could see Stephen Jackson and accurately pass the ball to Stephen Jackson is a technical job.

Sessions made a good pass. At least it went to Stephen Jackson. Although Stephen Jackson was still slightly uncomfortable with the pick-up.

And Perkins and Garnett saw Stephen Jackson enter the interior line, and they both came up to make up for the defense, giving Stephen Jackson a lot of pressure. Stephen Jackson didn't make it to the basket in order to avoid the defensive block.

Garnett thought that this defense was over, that he could protect the rebound, and then he was ready to attack.

However, this is when the unexpected happened.

A figure, extremely dissatisfied because it was emptied. Taking advantage of the opportunity that no one was around, Chen Jiyuan unceremoniously accepted this frontcourt rebound.

And Garnett and Perkins saw Chen Jiyuan get the basketball, and pounced like mad dogs.

Chen Jiyuan shook for a moment. Both men were shaken. Make a time difference. In the process of the two people's fall, Chen Jiyuan jumped with strength. Forcibly jumping, in the little gap between Perkins and Garnett, Chen Jiyuan used his explosion and strength to forcibly crash out of the space. While knocking away Garnett and Perkins, Chen Jiyuan dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.

A wonderful second attack, this is the consequence of Garnett's defense.

Chen Jiyuan's judgment on rebounds and enthusiasm for rebounds are very strong, and the title of rebounding king, you think it was really picked up.

Chen Jiyuan's violent dunk once again heated up the atmosphere on the court.

41:49。

Garnett is very faceless with this ball. As a superstar in the league, Garnett decisively wants to regain this face on Chen Jiyuan's head.

So, for this ball, Garnett asked for the ball with his back, Chen Jiyuan defended behind Garnett, and after getting the ball, Garnett turned around and broke through the frame.

Because Chen Jiyuan has fewer opportunities to defend the opponent's single knife inside player, many people are underestimating Chen Jiyuan's single defense ability. In fact, if it weren't for the team's defensive system, Chen Jiyuan, who is aggressive and likes to challenge, would be very willing to defend the most aggressive person on the opposite side.

In the current situation, Chen Jiyuan likes it very much.
