One of the games to be played here tonight is the regular season game between the Boston Celtics and the Milwaukee Bucks at home, and the Boston Celtics beat the Knicks away under the leadership of Zhuang Fei in the previous game, so this Boston Celtics return game is particularly interesting. []

This also made the game all tickets sold out, and the local Celtics fans in Boston once again rekindled their support for the team and hoped that their team could maintain a good upward momentum at home.

Today's game is very important for the Boston Celtics, so Zhuang Fei was quite cautious before the game, but when he arrived at the scene of this game, Zhuang Fei did not have that tense atmosphere, on the contrary, Zhuang Fei looked very relaxed after the game arrived at the scene, the slaughter of the Bucks and the Grizzlies Zhuang Fei has watched the video, Zhuang Fei also has a general understanding of the Bucks, the Boston Celtics are not afraid of this style of team, their offensive ability is average, But the mid-to-long-range offense outside the free-throw line is very powerful, Cassel's pull-up jump shot, Ray Allen's long-range shot, and of course, Robinson, the big dog who gathers the strengths of everyone, these three are among the best offensive threats in the league.

But in the same way, the Boston Celtics outside Jameson Posey, Jackson and Maddy can cancel each other out with the three of them in some ways, even if the Timberwolves can't do it like the Grizzlies now, but they can also limit them well, and more importantly, when Zhuang Fei came to the scene, it was obvious that these Bucks players were a little absent-minded.

It's no wonder that anyone who lost 50 points in the game the day before and back-to-back the next day can still be full of energy, and the current state of this team can be regarded as their inevitable situation, so Zhuang Fei was completely relieved after seeing this scene. The current stag is like a tiger that has fallen asleep temporarily. In this game, the Boston Celtics will have no problem winning this game as long as they can maintain the form they played last game.

In this game, Zhuang Fei still discharged James Posey and Jackson as the backcourt, Yao Ming, and Xiao Ao. [ ] Maddie is the lineup in the front court, and Zhuang Fei is still trusting Maddie who has found the feeling of organizing a striker. Zhuang Fei also let the young small forward dominate the team's offense.

At the beginning of the game, the Boston Celtics took the lead in one fell swoop, especially after Boston took the lead, and the boiling Boston fans on the sidelines also made these young players full of fighting spirit.

"Haha. It's Jermaine again, the Bucks' power forward is so short, how does it feel similar to the New York Knicks in the last game? ”

Just as the game was slowly interrupted, some fans on the sidelines had already started chatting about some weird pulls.

"Yes, Jermaine's recent congratulatory message Yao Ming's performance is really good, this may be too poor with these autumn land's interior confrontation ability and interior defensive ability, this game is 2.08 meters with Mark Pope on the Bucks' inside line, and Anthony Mason Jr. is only 2.01 meters, no matter how these two people look at it, they can't pull Yao Ming and Xiao Ao, especially with the progress of this game, the gap in this area is more obvious.

And then. The Boston Celtics have won recently in their own interior duo, and the duo is extremely active and efficient right now, but a little different from the New York Knicks is that this team is now completely under the control of Coach Karl. Although the situation on the pitch was a bit bad. But the difference between the Bucks and the Knicks is that this team is extremely sophisticated now, and they know what to do in the event of a situation. …,

So this team played a completely small lineup when the gap widened a little bit. And unlike the Knicks, Carl's attitude towards offensive speed is extremely resolute, it is obvious that the Boston Celtics team has two big men, although these two big men are not slow to move, especially the center Yao Ming, Yao Ming actually received a special guard from the 76ers in this game, it is obvious that the 76ers have begun to develop a dedicated defensive strategy for Yao Ming, and the Chinese interior has begun to establish his star status after these performances.

Yao Ming is a rookie, when a rookie begins to be pinched by the opponent, then many times the rookie will play down, but this game is exactly not like this, Mark Pop has actually been using his physical strength to create confrontation for Yao Ming today, although this Chinese inside line has gained weight at the request of Zhuang Fei's team assistant coach Green, but it is obvious that there is still a bit of a loss in the face of some black insiders, and many times he can't sit still on the inside.

In fact, Yao Ming in this game also couldn't sit still a lot of times, but when Yao Ming received the ball and Pope pushed below, this Chinese directly lost the meaning of the center of gravity, but every time it came to this situation, the Chinese was always able to complete the backward jump shot that turned around in an instant of losing the center of gravity, and many times this kind of difficult shooting for the inside line of this Chinese interior line can also be hit.

Seeing that the Chinese interior line on the field, who was more than 2.20 meters tall, played such a technique, George Karl on the sidelines was constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead. How to defend such an offense? It's too rebellious.

"Coach, Yao Ming's move has improved again" Assistant coach Green on the sidelines looked at Yao Ming's jump shot with a slight lean and said with satisfaction, for many center players, if they want to have enough dominance or aggression on the inside, they must add weight, and then the more weight they have, the more they can sit on the opponent, but for Yao Ming, he doesn't need this, for him he doesn't need to sit on the opponent completely, When he learned from McHale a year ago, McHale not only taught him steps under the basket, but also taught him how to combine his backward shooting with footwork under the basket, so that even if he couldn't sit completely under the basket, he could use his footwork and shooting to end the game.

Obviously, the Chinese inside line of McHal's suggestion is quite serious, which is why he was able to adapt to the NBA so quickly, his technical moves are too practical, after McHale's teaching, this center has given up a lot of flashy moves before, and now these technical moves are simply specially prepared for the NBA.

"Yes, this is a very good thing for us" Zhuang Fei nodded with a smile and said, now Yao Ming does not need to increase the weight like he did in his previous life in order to improve the defensive area or offensive aggressiveness, and now Yao Ming has Xiao Ao to share the pressure on the defensive end, and there is already another way to attack on the offensive end.

George Carr's mood is very complicated now, he was ready to regain confidence in Boston in this game, but from this game, this idea is really a bit naïve, not to mention the psychological condition of the current Bucks players, with the current strength of Boston, it is not at all like a team that is considered by the outside world.

And what makes Carl even more depressed is that compared with Maddie when the two teams met last time, Maddie in this game is obviously much more mature and rational, and there is no resentment when playing, this is a team that has been a little reborn.

When he thought of this, the Bucks sighed again in his heart, originally the competition in the East was not as fierce as in the West, but now seeing that the Heat and the 76ers are still at their peak, and the Grizzlies are also coming to the West, plus the Boston Celtics who have now slowly been reborn, the current East is not inferior at all, at least in the first group, the Bucks are probably going to fall to the bottom. At this time, Coach Carl also sighed a little. …,

At halftime, the Bucks lost by 15 points on their own road, and after the end of the third quarter, the Bucks, who had some unintentional thoughts of fighting, turned the difference into 20 points, which basically can be declared that the fourth quarter of this game entered garbage time, and in fact, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the two teams played for two minutes and then saw that the difference was not narrowed and they all switched to their own rotation lineups.

And when both sides switched to the rotation lineup, Boston's sixth-man guard once again soared like he did in the last game against the Knicks, which also made the difference between the two teams almost run to 30 points.

The final score of this game was 115-90, after the last crazy 48-point victory over the Knicks, the Boston Celtics once again beat the Eastern powerhouse Bucks by 25 points, and this game Boston's rookie center Yao Ming was 20 points and 1 rebound in the previous game, this game scored 22 points and 12 rebounds again in a little more than three quarters, which is also the first consecutive 20+ in the center's NBA career10, although the Chinese interior opponent in these two games is a little poor, but it is obvious that the strength and potential shown by the center in these two games have been slowly recognized by the league, today the Bucks have designed a defensive strategy specifically for this interior line, and the Boston Celtics playmaker Maddy continued the performance of the last game in this game, the forward scored 16 points and 12 assists in this game and scored a double-double of assists again.

When the Boston Celtics won at home, the team also moved up from eighth to sixth place in the East. Boston's opponent, the Bucks, fell to seventh place.

After this game, the Boston Celtics also continued their upward momentum.

It's obvious.

Boston has really risen.
