O'Neill got an assist, but Li Feng let out a sigh of relief. Because O'Neill didn't enter the box this round, O'Neal's power will become weaker and weaker with the increase of time on the court.

When the Knicks came back on the offensive again, the Celtics' defense immediately changed.

Garnett came directly to defend Li Feng and asked O'Neal to defend Monroe.

Although Monroe also has mid-range shooting ability, Monroe's shooting range is not as far as the three-point line.

In this way, the Knicks' best choice was to switch the offensive point and let Monroe play O'Neal.

continues to eat the shortcomings of the Celtics, but the person who got the ball in this round is Harden.

Harden saw that Li Feng's hand was hot, this guy didn't even look at Monroe, and when he turned around, he threw the basketball to Li Feng again.

When the basketball was in Li Feng's hands, Garnett immediately became nervous again, and now Garnett, an old defensive bone, is a little unable to understand Li Feng.

Li Feng felt very strange to Garnett, he didn't belong to any type he had ever seen, and he was a freak as a whole.

As a result, Garnett couldn't grasp which defensive strategy to use to deal with Li Feng, just when Garnett hesitated a little.

Li Feng got the basketball, and took a big stride forward with his right foot, spending a long distance.

Garnett had never encountered this situation before, so naturally he followed Li Feng's steps and took a big step back.

This big stride came out, Li Feng raised his hand and it was a fast three-point shot, Li Feng was originally tall enough, the shot was fast, and the arc was high.

Garnett quit this step, and he won't be able to touch Li Feng's basketball. Seeing that Li Feng made a three-point shot.

"Huh"

It's actually another three-pointer. Under Garnett's defense. Li Feng actually did this.

Suddenly, Garnett's face changed, Rivers's face on the sidelines also changed, and the face of the entire North Shore Garden court changed.

Garnett has always been the core of the Celtics' defense, and any team's demons and monsters will generally put out the fire directly when they come to Garnett.

Garnett is an interior player for other teams. It is the Buddha.

But today, this Buddha has met a character who can jump out of his palm.

Can this Garnett not be surprised, Rivers not surprised, and North Shore Gardens not surprised?

If you let such a person who Garnett can't control on the court. Stir up the wind and rain?

Celtics players and many fans are afraid to think about what the consequences will be, knowing that the Celtics have always been known for controlling defense.

In this way, although Li Feng was on the defensive end against O'Neal, he entered the offensive end, and Garnett directly switched to defend Li Feng. He didn't dare to let go of Li Feng, but as soon as Garnett came out to defend Li Feng.

The Celtics' penalty area defense had problems, and O'Neal couldn't keep up with his pace on the inside, and his bounce ability was gone.

Garnett was also pulled out by Li Feng, and this time, the Celtics' inside line was for the Knicks' Kirilenko and Harden. It's like a backyard.

The two men went in and out of Garnett's back, and kept sticking under the Celtics' basket. O'Neill simply couldn't defend.

Garnett retracted slightly, Harden and Kirilenko immediately passed the ball to the back, and Li Feng's three-pointers were shot one after another.

In this way, the Celtics were completely passive.

At the end of the first quarter, the Knicks had a 13-point lead over the Celtics.

The Celtics' bench players didn't perform well during the bench either, after the main players returned in the second quarter.

Li Feng still has a good long-range shot here, so the Celtics still can't come up with an effective defensive strategy.

After the two teams fought to the fullest, they had to arrange every point of the other party, and Li Feng suddenly soared by three points.

The Celtics don't have that set-up, so they can't defend effectively.

There's an uncontrolled point where this kind of thing doesn't matter for some rough teams.

But for a budget-conscious team like Celtic, it's very fatal.

By halftime, the Knicks were 17 points ahead of the Celtics.

That's a bit of a big difference. By this time, Mark Jackson, who was on the commentary seat, said:

"Is the Knicks really so strong that the Celtics can't stop them? Could it be that the Knicks are so powerful now? Isn't there a team in the league that can cause them problems? ”

Bill Wharton is constantly questioning here, and deep down Bill Wharton doesn't believe in such an outcome.

In the history of the league, the only outcome of such a team is a team creating a new dynasty.

Bill Wharton didn't believe in such a result, and Mark Jackson, who was on his side, looked at the data sheet at this time:

"The reason why the Knicks can play to this point today is mostly because of Li Feng's three-point shot, Garnett is the defensive core of the Green Shirts, but Li Feng's offensive means are too many to defend at all."

The Celtics lost in the first half, and they could surprise Li Feng's three-point shot, and the Celtics did not have sufficient tactical preparation for Li Feng's three-point shot.

As a result, everyone at Celtic immediately began to study what it would take to control the situation on the court as soon as they entered the locker room.

The Celtics are a team that has always been rigorous, and Rivers made a decision after a little research in the locker room.

Now that Li Feng has such a large ability to pull space, he simply finds someone to run with Li Feng outside.

Garnett retracted to defend the interior, and now the Celtics' strategy has become to block Li Feng's three-point shot.

Let Li Feng break through and drill into the Celtics' inside pocket formation.

The time when the two teams came back again.

Li Feng noticed at a glance that there were two changes in the Celtics.

The first change is that the Celtics' center has become O'Neal Jr., and the second change is that at the beginning, Pierce, who was dull in the first half, has been communicating with Rondo about something.

Li Feng saw this situation, and he immediately felt something.

Celtics this team, in general. Killing people begins in the third quarter.

The first two sections. The Celtics are not going to explode their full strength.

It's all with you. In the third quarter, the Celtics suddenly pulled the gap apart and exploded their strength.

This way of playing is the same as long-distance running, and there is no waste of physical strength and energy in front. It is to follow you, and when you get to the back, you suddenly have the strength to win all at once.

Now Li Feng smelled that Celtics had this trend, and the opening was the ball possession of Celtic. Sure enough, when I saw the Celtics coming, the momentum was different.

It was a completely different feeling from the first half, and Rondo got the basketball and rushed straight towards the Knicks' half.

Rondo's play has the advantage of being quick to break through, aggressive defensively, and passing first.

But he also has shortcomings, and Rondo's shortcomings are that he can't shoot from a distance.

So as soon as Rondo came over, Rose immediately stepped back two meters and waited for Rondo next to the penalty area.

With this kind of contemptuous defense, Rondo has to watch too, who makes his long-range shooting not work. And Rondo didn't dare to break through casually, piling up Kirilenko on the inside of the Knicks. Li Feng, Monroe. Several strong defenders.

If Rondo rushes up, it's just a feeling of pumping.

Rondo is such a big flaw that a point guard doesn't shoot from a distance. The Celtics also put him on it, what to do?

Not to mention, the Celtics have devised three response tactics specifically for Rondo's characteristics.

The first point is the tactics used by Celtic in the first half, raising the high and low positions. In attack, Garnett and another center.

Raise to the free throw line so that the space under the basket comes out. Ray Allen and Pierce pulled on the wings, and this Rondo was easy to fight.

The second point is that Rondo dribbles directly to the vicinity of the penalty area, and here he further compresses the opponent's defense.

Then suddenly pass Garnett or any outside player behind him, and the Celtics have one more three-point flaw.

Pierce, Ray Allen, and Garnett's long-range shots are relatively stable.

The third is to play the wrong position, Pierce, Rondo, or Ray Allen, the three outside players go directly to the low post. In this way, Rondo's three-point incompetence was resolved.

The Celtics used a variety of ways to make the overall offense more suitable for Rondo in the overall environment.

On the one hand, because Rondo does have a lot of talent in the organization, and on the other hand, because the Celtics actually don't lack points for long-range shooting, and without Rondo, the Celtics still have a lot of players who can shoot three-pointers.

Rose is now defending Rondo like this, and Rondo immediately adopted a second response strategy, slowly pressing towards the middle and compressing the Knicks' defensive formation. At the same time, Garnett and Ray Allen pulled towards the wings, so that the Knicks did not dare to easily wrap up Rondo.

In this way, when the Knicks hesitated a little, Rondo was active, all near the waist, and played with the back dribble.

In this way, even if Harden was afraid of pulling out Ray Allen, he still couldn't help but come over and harass Rondo.

All of a sudden, Rondo seized the opportunity and threw the basketball at Ray Allen behind him with one hand.

Allen got the ball, Nixton was terrified, and everyone who plays basketball on the planet knows how powerful Allen's three-point shot is.

Monroe, who was behind Harden, immediately saved to make up for Allen, and Harden changed positions and hurriedly defended O'Neal Jr., but at this time, O'Neal Jr. made a very simple move on the inside, and the move delayed Kirilenko's footsteps.

Just a little squeezed Kirilenko twice, and Pierce on the bottom line was exposed, and Aaron passed the ball quickly in an instant.

Pierce is a three-pointer from the baseline.

The world knows about Pierce's back-to-back offense and flower-wearing dance moves, but they always forget about the three-point surge of Pierce and Walker during the Celtics twins. The three-point shot is also Pierce's forte.

"Huh" was crisp, and Pierce hit a three-pointer from the bottom corner.

The Celtics hit a three-point shot, but Li Feng arrived after the Knicks' half. Immediately realized that he had a personal nanny, and little O'Neill stuck it on his body like a plaster.

It's just not to give yourself a little gap, not to let yourself shoot three points. And Garnett is back in the box.

As a result, the Knicks' offensive routine in the first half immediately lost its meaning. was hit suddenly, and the Knicks couldn't react a little. In the end, Kirilenko could only make a hasty move. It didn't work out well. Missed shot.

The Knicks missed the shot, and the Celtics immediately rebounded to protect it, and then quickly advanced to the Knicks' half.

The third quarter of the Celtics was really different from the first two quarters.

It's the Knicks' half. Layers of cover were arranged for Pierce and Ray Allen. And Pierce and Ray Allen are constantly cross-covering each other, which makes it more difficult for the Knicks to defend.

The Celtics frequently screened and ran off the ball on the wings and on the baseline, with Rondo controlling the ball and pressing at the top of the arc.

The whole attacking formation. It is like an eagle with both wings flying together, and the middle road is protruding. Even if Kirilenko has the best talent here, he can only follow Pierce around the stadium.

Now Pierce and Ray Allen have played for a few years, and their ability to run without the ball has deepened year by year.

The current Pierce can be regarded as a half-empty-handed player.

O'Neal Jr. made a cover for Pierce at 45 degrees, and Pierce came out to catch the ball, and then he didn't shoot immediately like Ray Allen, but took the ball and immediately stepped back and dribbled.

Pierce's action seemed to be a waste of momentary opportunities. But he made such a false shot, but Kirilenko, who followed behind. Momentarily stunned, he didn't know what Pierce was up to.

Kirilenko was a little sluggish. Pierce got up with a mid-range jumper.

Pierce's mid-range jumper doesn't look fast, but it's hard to defend.

By the time Kirilenko turned around, Pierce had already finished his shot.

"Pull" Pierce hit this mid-range shot cleanly, and at the beginning of the third quarter, the Celtics really stepped up their offense.

Just look at the number of personnel they put into an offensive round, in this round.

Although it looked like a step-back jumper from Pierce, Rondo's attention in front, O'Neal Jr.'s cover, and Ray Allen's pull on the other side were the basis of this offense.

Since the third quarter, the Celtics have really put a lot of effort into the offense.

By this time, the Celtics had already fully unleashed their offensive power.

Now that the Celtics are starting to fight hard, the Knicks can't be polite. Now that the Celts are desperate, Kirilenko is also a little agitated.

The old Russian man rushed towards the Celtics' half court with a basketball.

If it were an ordinary team, Kirilenko's impact like this would still cause a lot of damage.

But the Celtics, the old guys have already eaten the essence of basketball.

Even if Kirilenko rushed up like this, they still had a set of cold and effective tactics to contain Kirilenko.

Pierce came up first to delay Kirilenko, as a brick under Kirilenko's feet, not allowing Kirilenko to rush up.

Then the Celtic players in the back immediately rushed towards Kirilenko's side and concentrated their superior forces to contain Kirilenko.

That's what the Celtics' O8 side is known for, and that's what the Bulls are now working on.

As soon as Kirilenko came in, he was first minused, and then he was beaten by a group.

At this time, Kirilenko became a little clearer.

When Kirilenko was blocked, he immediately turned his head and threw the basketball towards Li Feng, the most conspicuous person in the crowd.

The Lakers used Gasol to stand in the middle of the strategy, and Kirilenko threw the basketball to Li Feng without thinking about it.

reached out and grabbed the basketball, but O'Neal Jr. suddenly stuck in front of Li Feng, and O'Neal Jr.'s responsibility now is not to let Li Feng shoot.

Li Feng was suddenly crushed, and he could only dribble violently and rush towards the block. Li Feng did pass little O'Neill in one step here, and little O'Neal, whose knees were tortured, couldn't keep up with Li Feng's footsteps at all.

But Li Feng stepped into the inside line of the Celtics, and he immediately regretted it. Because a group of Celtic people immediately pounced on themselves.

Garnett was front, Pierce flanked, and Ray Allen was behind the trio who were onslaught at themselves from all sides.

Under so many onslaughts, Li Feng could only desperately throw a high throw towards it, and in this case, he threw high.

The effect is not very good. As soon as Li Feng made a move, he felt that his shot was wrong.

Li Feng missed the shot here. But what Li Feng didn't expect was.

Monroe, who was on the other side of the basket, grabbed the rebound in the frontcourt.

Monroe grabbed the rebound under the basket. Then immediately pass the basketball out and re-attack.

At this time, Li Feng also retreated to the vicinity of the three-point line.

Two attacks, Li Feng felt it.

The Celtics' defensive strategy is that O'Neal Jr. blocks his three-point shot. Let yourself break through, break through, and the Celtics will beat them up.

Li Feng stood outside the three-point line and thought for a while. I suddenly laughed.

This group of old things in the Celts is really difficult, and it looks like they need to come up with something real.

When Li Feng was moving, Yu Guang looked at the position of his teammates, and it happened that Harden transferred the basketball over.

At this time, Li Feng's position is 45 degrees to the left, one and a half steps inside the three-point line. Li Feng got the basketball as soon as he was in this position.

Little O'Neill pounced on Li Feng as usual, and Li Feng's first action this time was the same as the last time, and he suddenly started a step.

It looks like they are going to get past O'Neal Jr. in one step, and a cadre of Celtic brothers is also ready to beat Li Feng in a group.

But after Li Feng came out, he immediately stopped.

Wait for O'Neill Jr. to catch up with half a step. Then he twisted half of his ass and suppressed O'Neal Jr.'s step-by-step movement towards the inside line. Li Feng didn't break through directly?

Suddenly a dry brother on the inside line of the Celtics. It's a bit sluggish.

In such a momentary sluggishness, the Celtics missed a Knicks player from the baseline.

Monroe suddenly appeared here on the bottom line, and Li Feng couldn't see this angle.

Monroe was completely blocked by the Celtic defenders, but Li Feng saw it in a different way.

The left hand gently sent the basketball to the back, and the basketball instantly reached the hands of Monroe on the baseline, and Monroe looked up to be a middle distance.

After Li Feng was cracked in the three-point mode, he immediately entered the organizational mode. I don't have to open up space with my own three.

Instead, he used his own offense to compress the Celtics' space, and Li Feng changed his offensive mode in an instant. From a space maker, to a space compressor.

Li Feng passed the ball, after Monroe shot.

The Celtics as a whole have a feeling that they can't react.

What the hell happened to this, what the hell happened to this. We're very defensive. Li Feng couldn't see this position at all, how did he do this pass?

The Celtics can't figure it out here, but it doesn't prevent these old things from continuing to attack with the precision of their own machines on the court.

The Knicks have no special way to use the Celtics' off-ball movement and layers of cover for the time being.

But the Celtics have no effective way to take Li Feng after the same transformation.

When Li Feng shot three points, the Celtics' strategy could also clearly stick to Li Feng.

But after Li Feng switched to this style of play, O'Neal Jr.'s defense had no center of gravity at all.

Sometimes I see Li Feng just breaking through one or two steps and passing the ball, and sometimes I see Li Feng attacking with his back.

Sometimes when little O'Neill was hesitating, Li Feng suddenly made a move.

After Li Feng changed from a shooter to a playmaker, O'Neill Jr. became at a loss.

The Celtics' defensive center of gravity could not be found, so the offensive momentum organized by the Celtics in the third quarter was immediately offset by the Knicks' offense.

By the end of the third quarter, the two teams still didn't pull away, 89-87.

Li Feng's change alone made the offensive that the Celtics had managed to organize in the third quarter invisible.

The Celtics' most ferocious third quarter didn't come out, so the Knicks began to organize a counterattack in the fourth quarter.

During the break in the middle of the third and fourth quarters, Tyberdu called his players to his side.

At this time, whether it was Harden, Kirilenko, or Monroe, they all sat on the bench with a strange look.

Tyberdu's face at this time was completely unstressed, and even Tyberdou had a smile on his face.

He walked up to his teammates, squatted down, and asked with a smile:

"How do the lads feel?"

After Tyberdu said this, the Knicks' group all smiled.

Li Feng was on the side, frowning, he didn't feel anything. It's still a draw, and Li Feng doesn't feel that there is anything to be happy about.

What are these guys up to? Next, Kirilenko's words made Li Feng finally understand.

"Now we still have the stamina, and we can destroy those old guys at any time."

Up to now, the Knicks have basically played naturally, and without much physical strength, they can fight the Celtics to this extent, without the slightest feeling of suffering.

The Green Shirts maintain this intensity, the old guy's old arms and legs are almost the same, and the Knicks only need one or two fresh troops to be able (to be continued.) )
