Chapter 491: 2:1!
"I don't know what to say anymore! Wood was so tough that he had no friends, and he scored four points in a row.
Eddie. Will House go back to his mom in tears? And he also paid for a personal technical foul.
Wood is likely to score five points in one sitting. ”
"Bill, you're right, Wood is really tough to have friends with two consecutive fours, and if Wood scores five points, then the original six-point margin will expand to 16 points, which is too much pressure for Boston." Hoffman continued.
Linson pulled Milicic and Chris. Webb's hand stood up, and Eddie. House stood by with a lonely expression.
Doug. Rivers had to call a timeout, and while time seemed like there was plenty of time right now, the 16-point margin was too great.
The Magic are no ordinary team, and if they can't close the margin to single digits by the final five minutes, then the Celtics will really be on their knees in this game.
The Linson fans in front of the TV were like a holiday, Eddie. House became a pitiful backdrop.
Pause back, Doug. Rivers didn't bring on Garnett and Tony early. Alan.
The Magic, on the other hand, maintained their original lineup, and Linson stepped to the free-throw line amid boos.
Garnett glared viciously at Lin Sen on the free throw, Lin Sen smiled at Garnett, Garnett's interference had no effect on him at all.
first sent the technical foul free throw into the basket safely, and then Lin Sen easily sent the free throw to the basket, completing the feat of scoring five points on offense.
After Garnett came on the court, the Celtics' offense and defense on the inside have improved.
But Lin Sen's threat was too great. It was eight minutes into the fourth quarter. Lin Sen was killed by Stan. Van Gundy switched to the off-court break.
At this time, the Celtics still trailed the Magic by 12 points. Such a point difference makes Stan. Van Gundy dared to replace Linson for a break.
Doug. Rivers didn't dare to replace Pierce and Garnett lightly, even if Pierce didn't have a break from the start of the fourth quarter.
After Linson went off the court, Billups controlled the tempo, not rushing to attack but slowing down the offensive tempo and strengthening the defensive end.
"Boston can't find a good solution, and that's a fatal problem.
They had to close the margin before Wood could play, and if it stayed at around 10 points, I think Stan would have been more than happy to let Wood rest off the court! "Bill. Wharton said, looking at the Magic sidelines.
On the field, Garnett received the ball from Pierce. Back singles Eddie. Griffin, as a former teammate, Eddie. Griffin was familiar with Garnett.
He did his best to make Garnett feel awkward, but in the end he couldn't stop Garnett's goal.
Stan. Van Gundy glanced at the scoreboard, and with five minutes to go until full-time, the Magic still led by nine points.
The Big Three on the Celtics side have all played. Van Gundy chose to continue to let Linson sit on the sidelines during the break when the next attack on Ray Gundy. Allen scored a three-pointer against Billups' defense.
The long-suppressed North Shore Garden Arena finally erupted in frantic cheers. Van Gundy immediately asked for a timeout.
"Allen's three-point shot is so crucial, and the difference between six and sixteen points has a completely different feeling.
Six points and two three-pointers can tie it. And sixteen points are like a mountain, and Stan will definitely put Wood on the court.
It's finally time for the game! Hoffman said with a smile as he looked at the scoreboard.
No one wants to watch a one-sided game. With less than five minutes left before the end of the game, the six-point difference was not too big.
"Wood will play or not will continue the magic of the beginning of the fourth quarter, and if that's the case, I think Boston might as well surrender sooner.
It is impossible for the earthlings to defeat the cosmic level of Wood. Lin, don't you say? "Bill. Wharton asked, turning his head.
Hoffman shrugged: "Bill, aren't you talking nonsense?" Who can beat the supergod, but Wood's appearance should be a morale boost for Orlando.
And Boston will certainly be extra tough on Wood's defense, and I'm curious to see how Wood will handle Boston's defense. ”
With the referee's whistle, players from both sides re-entered the field.
The Celtics used the usual four-big lineup for the first half, while the Magic used to start all of the lineups.
Doug. Rivers has just emphasized defending Linson again and again, Linson takes Milicic's serve, and Tony Bush. Aaron and Ray. Allen waited for Linsen in the front court on the left and right.
Lin Sen dribbled the ball to the front court while looking at the position on the field.
Double-wrapping him means teammates have a better chance.
Linson came to the frontcourt, Tony. Aaron pressed up first, Ray. Aaron waited aside, ready to come up at any time to defend himself.
However, Linson disappointed the fans, and he did not intend to directly challenge the Celtic defense this time, but passed the ball to Billups.
Although Linson passed the ball out, Tony. Aaron and Ray. Aaron still didn't relax his attention on Lin Sen.
Billups faces Rajan defending himself. Rondo opted for a back-to-back single, and as Linson thought, there would always be difficulty in defending four with three.
Rajan. Rondo struggled to defend alone, but the others couldn't make up for it at all.
Eventually Billups in Rajan. Rondo's defense made a turnaround jumper, and the ball went into the basket safely.
"Why do I feel frustrated, just because Wood wasn't involved in the offense?" Bill. Wharton said.
"Bill, why do you have to be so direct, the Chauncy fans will be unhappy, but for Orlando as long as they can keep scoring then it's good.
With an eight-point difference, Boston's offense in the next leg is very important, once it can't score, and Orlando can score in the next leg, then it will not be easy to get back to the double-digit point difference. Hoffman analyzed.
The Magic's defense is basically man-marking, plus rotation, and Lin Sen is staring at Thunder. Alan.
Before Lin Sen came on the field. Thunder. Allen's three-pointer helped the Celtics chase down the deficit by just six points.
Ray at the moment. Aaron couldn't shake off Lin Sen. Lin Sen was like a piece of dog skin plaster. Appears in Ray as fast as possible. Aaron's side.
After Pierce and Garnett combined a pick-and-roll, Garnett hit the basket with a mid-range shot, and Celtics fans breathed a sigh of relief.
"KG's accurate mid-range shooting, the difference is still six points." Bill. Wharton said with a smile.
Linson took Milicic's serve and came to the frontcourt. Aaron is still defending against Lin Sen, Ray. Aaron waited to prepare the double bag.
Exactly like the last offense, Linson still handed the ball to Billups.
This time, though, Billups didn't attack on his own, instead dropping the ball into the hands of Milicic on the inside. The big four Celtic have to face the prospect of having Pierce defend Milicic at the moment.
The height difference made Pierce's defense very tight, and Linson stood one step inside the three-point line on the right side and swept Milicic who was holding the ball with his back to Pierce.
Howard, who was on the inside, suddenly pulled a reverse run to the high post, and Lin Sen used Howard's cover to directly insert it diagonally from 45 degrees.
Garnett, who was about to make up for the defense, had not yet reacted, and Lin Sen had already passed by him.
"Dwight cover! Wood cuts in, it's an opportunity! "Bill. Wharton shouted.
Milicic, who singled Pierce with the ball with his back, threw the ball directly to the back of his head with his right hand.
Lin Sen, who cut in, looked at the ball flying towards the basket, and jumped high two steps away from the three-second zone.
Garnett, who hurriedly returned to the defense, could no longer do anything, and could only watch Lin Sen stage an aerial relay in front of him.
"Nice fit, direct collaboration from Darko and Wood. Darko's pass was really good, giving Wood a comfortable chance. The difference is back to eight points again! ”
"Wood looked full of energy, and this aerial relay dunk was too easy for Wood, and there was no pressure at all." Hoffman continued.
The offense and defense switched, and the ball was passed to Ray. In the hands of Aaron.
Lin Sen stood in Ray. Allen in front of Celtic Ray. Aaron gradually changed his style of play.
However, it does not mean that he will not make a personal breakthrough in the past. Aaron is also a representative of the ability to break through and buckle.
Looking at Lin Sen in front of him, Lei. Aaron made a triple threat move.
Lin Sen and Lei. Allen keeps the right distance, and for Linson, his reflexes and pace are his biggest reliance on the defensive end.
After the end of the season, some experts at ESPN pointed out that Linson's defensive ability was underestimated.
In fact, from last season to now, Linson's defense has improved a lot in two years.
Especially this year, Lin Sen often plays against the opponent's arrows, and this kind of confrontation is very helpful for the accumulation of experience on the defensive end.
Lin Sen always remembered that a real superstar must not only have offense but also defense, and on the defensive end, Lin Sen put a lot of energy at all, but it was completely overshadowed by his light on the offensive end.
Thunder. Aaron took two tentative steps in a row, and Lin Sen didn't react at all.
Seeing that Lin Sen was not deceived at all, Ray. Aaron began to dribble on his own.
However, under the pressure brought to him by Lin Sen, he was caught off guard, and he was almost successfully broken by Lin Sen.
It staggered to get the ball out at the last minute, and the rest of the Celtics had only ten seconds left.
Wood managed to keep Allen at bay, and PP caught the ball against Ron, who had five individual fouls, but it didn't matter for him to leave the court with six fouls now.
After all, it's the last minute, and there is still Sean on the Orlando bench, and the most important thing now is to defend PP's offense! Hoffman said as he looked at Artest, who was clinging to Pierce.
Completely different from the start of the second half, Artest's defensive intensity has increased significantly.
Pierce slammed his back into Artest, who didn't back down at all.
Eventually, Garnett pulled out again and tried to make a pick-and-roll with Pierce, and then Milicic's timely defense allowed Pierce to finally choose to force a shot.
The ball smashed into the front of the basket and bounced, and Linson, who rushed inside, won the defensive rebound, and the Magic immediately turned defense into offense.
"Boston's offense is iron, this is Orlando's chance, if Orlando succeeds this offense, then the pressure will be even greater for Boston, and the double-digit and single-digit difference is completely different!"
"Bill, you're right, Wood holds the ball, and it's still Tony's defense." Hoffman continued.
Lin Sen did not choose to pass directly this time, but chose to face Tony. Aaron, which makes the other side of Ray. Aaron moved.
"Double bag, Wood didn't pass the ball at the start this time!"
Dribbling the ball with his left hand and raising his right hand high in the air to make a gesture, the rest of the Magic immediately began to run.
Originally at a disadvantage on the defensive end, the other four Magic ran at this moment, which immediately made the Celtics' defense a little difficult.
There will always be such a situation in the double bag, once you encounter a ball carrier with good vision, then it is easy to make the defender pay the price, and Linson is obviously a player with good vision.
"Wood passes!" Bill. Wharton shouted.
The ball in Lin Sen's hand went straight to the weak, and the ball flew straight from one side to the other.
With such a wide range of transfer balls, only Lin Sen dared to pass at will.
Artest, who had just received the ball, faced Pierce to come up to defend, and Artest did not have any feints but forced a breakthrough.
With a strong arm bend, he directly hit Pierce and killed inside.
After passing the ball, Lin Sen ran directly to the top of the arc under the cover of Milicic.
Artest, who forced a breakthrough, pushed the ball directly with his right hand, and Lin Sen just reached the top of the arc and the ball just arrived.
Lin Sen, who received the ball, ignored Ray, who caught up. Aaron, jump straight on the spot.
In the fourth quarter, Linson hit two consecutive four-pointers to let Ray. Aaron had to worry about getting hit.
"This is Wood's chance! Allen didn't dare to pounce, apparently Wood made a big impression on the Celtics in the fourth quarter! Hoffman looked at Lin Sen who was jumping in the air and said.
Looking at the basket, Lin Sen flicked the ball out with his right hand.
Thunder. Allen's interference didn't play a role in him at all, and as soon as the ball was shot, Linson had a feeling that the ball would go in.
As soon as he landed, Linson's shooter clenched his right hand into a fist, and the ball passed through the net.
"Wood's three points, the crucial three points, Orlando leads by eleven points, Boston is really dangerous! With two minutes and forty seconds left before the end of the game, it was too difficult to recover the 11-point difference! "Bill. Wharton said, looking at the big screen.
Doug standing on the sidelines. Rivers closed his eyes helplessly, just like Bill. As Wharton said, it is unlikely that he will be able to recover the difference.
Subsequent Ray. Allen and Pierce missed their three-point attempts, officially declaring that the Celtics were just minutes away from defeat.
With one minute left in the game, Linson scored his 36th point of the game, and the Magic extended the margin to 11 points again. Rivers gave up the game completely.
"Wood was super tonight, scoring 32 points in the second half, and I think a lot of people didn't expect Wood, who was sluggish in the first half, to play like this in the second half, especially in the fourth quarter, where he scored four points in a row."
"This once again adds energy to the aura of the goddess of victory, and I have no doubt in the slightest that Adriana will be able to do so in the future. Lima's presence on the sidelines will scare Orlando's opponents. Hoffman said with a smile.
As Hoffman put it, the post-match media almost exclusively used the goddess of victory to highlight the game.
After this game, the Magic changed the overall score to 2:1 and successfully regained home court advantage. (To be continued......)
