Chapter 572: The Last Green Shirt

But soon J.R. Smith had a new option, as Livingston, who had run to the bottom corner, came back on a reverse run, appeared on J.R. Smith's flank, and reached out for the ball.

J.R. Smith didn't stick to the ball, and he immediately threw his hand and passed to Livingston.

The moment he caught the ball, Rondo chased after him, and Livingston noticed Rondo's pursuit with the corner of his eye, and the corners of his mouth showed a contemptuous sneer, and after saying "JR" in his mouth, he turned and ran forward.

J.R. Smith passed the ball and took Pierce to the side, and after Livingston passed, he completed the blockage, and Livingston used J.R. Smith's body to block Rondo's pursuit and rushed straight inside.

Seeing this, Garnett's eyes shrank, and he did not hesitate to go to Livingston Card, this time it was not to interfere or block, he was to directly block Livingston's way, so that he couldn't pass the ball!

Livingston twisted his knee and began to slow down in the face of Garnett's oppressive defence, slowing his pace and then suddenly holding the ball in his right hand to the left, changing direction and dribbling to Garnett's flank.

Garnett's goal was achieved, although Livingston's change of direction was very fast, but Bass had enough time to come up and wrap up, and the two of them completed the block on Livingston, even if Livingston passed the ball to Li Feng at this time, it was too late, because Garnett could rest assured that he could return to defense!

Facing the bag of the two elders, Livingston accelerated and continued to attack, and his eyes looked directly at Li Feng.

Garnett noticed Livingston's gaze, and he subconsciously gathered his strength and took a step back. Blocking Livingston's passing path with his body, and also blocking Livingston's view.

At this time, it was Bass who was defending directly in front of Livingston, and when he saw that he was meeting Livingston face to face, he didn't have time to think about taking a step forward, spreading his legs and arms, and his body was as short as a wall to block Livingston.

Livingston's eyes were still on Garnett, but the ball in his hand was thrown to the floor.

His ground-hitting pass was full of power, and the speed of the ball was naturally fast, and Buzz only felt an orange shadow flash in front of him, and then he felt a wind blowing under his crotch......

Li Feng looked at him in Livingston. Straight back and rushed out of the court. He went around the baseline and rushed to the other side of the basket, behind Buss, and when the ball bounced off the floor under Buss's crotch, it landed right in his hands.

Garnett was in a hurry, but there was nothing he could do at this point. Because Buzz was in his way. And Buzz couldn't do anything about it. Because he's facing Livingston!

After Li Feng received the ball, he roared and stood up from the ground, raised his hands above his head and made a thunderous buckle, and the basketball hoop was crumbling!

The fans in the arena didn't catch their breath until this point. It was a brilliant attack, a ball like this in the opening game, it made the fans cry out, they had a hunch that it was going to be a great game

After a sigh of relief, it was replaced by cheers, and deafening screams rang out in the North Shore Garden Arena, Livingston and Li Feng high-fived and ran backwards, and Rondo looked ugly.

Rondo dribbled to the three-point line around the 45th corner, facing Livingston's defense, he dribbled under his hip twice in a row and then suddenly accelerated a diagonal protrusion, his speed was top in the NBA, and his body immediately faced Livingston after taking a step.

After taking a step, Rondo's shoulders shook and quickly changed direction, he dribbled the ball again, and when he landed with one foot, he immediately jumped a step inward, and before he landed on the ground, he received the ball in his arms, raised his arms, and made a throwing stance.

This is Rondo's killer trick and the trick he relied on to become famous.

Of course, Rondo's speed is fast enough, Livingston's defensive experience is so sophisticated, in the face of Rondo's sudden breakthrough and then jumping and throwing, he can only try to interfere, but Rondo's move has been tempered thousands of times, and he hit it after throwing his hand.

The scene once again burst into explosive cheers, and the sound resounded through the sky!

Livingston laughed, and when he landed, he nodded to Rondo and said:

"Good job, boy, but you won't succeed next time."

Rondo smiled and retreated to defend, in fact, Livingston is not bragging, the premise of this move to work is to have suddenness, otherwise it is a surprise attack, and as long as Livingston's height player has a sense of defense, Rondo will not be able to play.

Li Feng and Rondo opened the situation for the team respectively, and then JR Smith broke through with the ball, his mentality was a little anxious, and Pierce seized the opportunity to make an offensive foul, but then, when Rondo broke through with the ball and attacked the basket and threw it again, Li Feng rose up in the air and slapped the ball down.

Livingston fast-packed with the ball and went straight to the rim, jumping up and making a turnaround layup in mid-air to avoid Garnett's block and add two more points to the Knicks.

However, the Celtics are an old powerhouse, and they quickly stabilized their position after encountering a fast break, but the Knicks also played very energetically, and after a battle between the two sides, the opening game was tied at 6.

Tyberdu called a timeout, and he said in a deep voice:

"The Bostonians are holding on to their defense, and obviously they're going to have a defensive battle today, and that's what they're good at, and the '07 championship is undoubtedly relying on that."

The Knicks players nodded, all a little nervous, and now without Dragic and Rose, they are most afraid of this kind of bucket defense.

Seeing this, Tyberdu laughed and said lightly:

"But it's nothing, it's the turn of the Celtic defense, who can compare to me."

After some deployment, the timeout ended, and JR Smith got the ball to attack at the beginning, and sure enough, seeing this scene, not to mention the fans on the spot, even the Celtics players were dumbfounded, and Barkley was full of depression in the TNT live broadcast room, and said:

"Tom knows the Celtics very well, such a crazy choice, is this going against the sky?"

Tyberdu is mad!

J.R. Smith was even more frustrated, as he immediately began to rampage against the Celtics defense as soon as he got the ball, and his breakthrough was purely for the sake of breaking through. It's not a score, so a few clicks left the Celtics with a hole on the outside.

J.R. Smith has been looking for this opportunity, Livingston quietly shook off Rondo and rushed to the bottom corner of the three-point line, J.R. Smith hurriedly passed the ball, got the ball Livingston flew quickly, the basketball spun and flew out, after a graceful arc in the air, and finally accurate as snow-white waves.

Relying on Tyberdeau's surprise move, the Celtics were a little scrambling, after Livingston hit the Knicks' first three-pointer of the game. J.R. Smith then passed the ball to Livingston. This time Livingston didn't shoot, but came to a strength test and passed the ball to another man in the bottom corner, Monroe.

Monroe's three points were not very good. But when he got the ball, he was quick to shoot. Three points actually shot!

Under the rampage of J.R. Smith. Livingston and Monroe led the Knicks to an 8-0 small* climax to take a 14-9 lead.

Tyberdu called a timeout, and halfway through the first quarter. Jordan Crawford is on the scene.

Replaced by Crawford, the Celtics' tactics are clear: resolutely attack the Knicks' interior!

Jordan Crawford first bit the score with a three-pointer, then Garnett forced the inside to score two points, and the Celtics responded to the Knicks with a 9-2 high. tide, chasing the score to 20 in one fell swoop.

Since then, the two sides have been playing iron, for this kind of game, what surprise attack, what strange tricks are fake, only defense is real, defense for the game is like fighting bayonets for a world war, this is the mainstream.

Then Garnett broke the scoring drought with a strong shot under the basket, and after Monroe defended the foul, Jordan Crawford hit one of two free throws, but in the last 1 second, Li Feng made a foul on Sallinger and fired back with two free throws, and finally the Celtics ended the first quarter with a 23-21 lead.

In the second quarter of the game, the Celtics still unswervingly implemented the defensive battle strategy, Tyberdu commanded his men to attack, Parsons and Jr Smith were on the court at the same time, and played their best chaotic battle, J.R. Smith caused Jeff Green's defensive foul and two free throws to equalize the score, but then Rondo assisted Sallinger to sneak inside to score, and the Knicks tied the score at 27 in the fast break.

The score is always stalemate, the Celtics have a better mentality, the Knicks want to open up the situation, Li Feng is the youngest and most competitive in the team, and he is the core of the team, and this responsibility is naturally in his hands.

Livingston dribbled steadily forward, Jordan Crawford and Rondo switched defenses, the latter went to deal with the faster J.R. Smith, and in the face of Jordan Crawford's oppressive defense, Livingston passed the ball to J.R. Smith without a strong fight.

After Jr Smith got the ball, he took a big step and tried Rondo's consciousness, the latter was vigilant, seeing that J.R. Smith was no longer polite, and his other heel rose from the ground, and then he rushed out.

Rondo only started to start at this time, his speed was faster than Jr Smith, and he had been following the flanks to interfere with him, Li Feng saw Jr Smith rushing directly to the inside, so he ran out of the penalty area to make way for Jr Smith to make way for Jr Smith, and Sallinger hurriedly rushed into the penalty area to make up for the vacancy caused by Garnett following Li Feng away.

Li Feng ran out of the penalty area and then ran back, Garnett was a little slower than him, and fell behind. Seeing this, J.R. Smith did not hesitate and immediately passed the ball to Li Feng.

received the ball from JR Smith, Li Feng withdrew the ball, and the muscles in his legs were tense like pieces of steel bars, but he first made a gesture and pretended to shoot, Garnett jumped up and wanted to block, but after jumping, he found that Li Feng just made a feint, and he took the ball and continued to rush to the penalty area.

Li Feng flashed past Garnett, and rushed into the restricted area in two consecutive steps, like a green dragon glaive knife sweeping through the enemy camp, he slammed into the inside line, and rushed to the basket with a piece of heaven and earth.

Seeing this, Sallinger gritted his teeth and went up, he was proud of his previous awareness of making up for the position, if he hadn't entered the restricted area in time, Li Feng's dunk would have been unguarded.

Facing Sallinger's strong body, Li Feng took a step forward, and his shoulder slanted directly on the opponent's chest, Sallinger screamed, after encountering Li Feng's speed, explosiveness, strength and body impact, he felt as if he was hit by a galloping tank, and his body flew backwards involuntarily.

Li Feng squeezed away Sallinger, who had long been standing firmly under the basket, and stomped on the floor with both feet. As if stepping on the ground is not the ground but a spring to fly into the sky, he holds the ball in both hands like a god holding the sun, a bow body holds the ball to the back of the shoulder, it is directly a violent buckle!

"Boom!" With a roar, the basketball hoop shook violently, like willows in a storm.

"Toot!"

The referee's whistle blew immediately afterward, and he made a cross-leg gesture before waving his hand in the direction of the Knicks' offense, to the simple point that Sallinger didn't jump under the basket. It was a blocking foul. One more penalty!

Even though this is the home court of the Celtics, seeing Livingston's wonderful pass and Li Feng's domineering dunk, there are still earth-shattering cheers in the North Shore Garden Arena, and countless Knicks fans stand up. Raise a glass together to celebrate this beautiful offense.

It's a feast for the eyes. The fans don't just have alcohol. And the delicious taste of the wine, that is, the wonderful game.

Li Feng punched his chest hard, like a Spartanis who had finished killing a hundred enemies.

He was indeed a Knick at this moment. Worthy of his team's name, he did kill someone, and under his heavy buckle, Sallinger, who was knocked away, lay on the ground and moaned in pain. groan, and couldn't stand up for a while.

Garnett and others hurriedly surrounded him, and Barkley in the TNT live broadcast room exclaimed:

"The T-Rex better run away quickly, he sins, he murdered poor Kenny Smith......"

Kenny Smith frowned:

"Hi man, you're calling the wrong name, that guy's name is Sallinger, not Kenny......"

"Who the fuck am I?"

Barkley interrupted Smith nonchalantly and laughed,

"Now fans just want to know if poor Kenny died from a comminuted fracture of his entire body from the impact or if he had his neck broken."

He deliberately provoked the old partner by using the name "Kenny" to say Smith.

Li Feng couldn't continue to take the free throws because the referee gave an official timeout, Sallinger was indeed injured, Li Feng's impact may have caused some damage to his sternum, and his back hit the floor, which obviously made his body very uncomfortable.

The Celtic team doctor hurriedly came on the field, but Sallinger's injury should not be serious, at least he was not carried down but helped down.

This time, no one condemned Li Feng, only Barkley said that Li Feng murdered Sallinger, and others such as Celtics fans can only complain sadly, Sallinger has nothing to do to stop Li Feng? The guy was already sprinting with all his might, and it was clear that that kind of attack couldn't be stopped!

Although this imposing dunk made Li Feng feel proud, it was obviously not his expectation to injure Sallinger, and he had also gathered around Sallinger nervously waiting for the team doctor's decision, which was why the fans did not blame him.

After learning the news that Sallinger would definitely not be able to continue playing in this game, many Knicks fans in the audience rejoiced, so that the depth of the Celtics' bench was greatly reduced, and the Knicks were one step closer to victory.

Seeing Sallinger being helped into the player's tunnel, Rivers' heart sank, listening to the cheers of the Knicks fans behind him, he didn't feel annoyed, but a little gloomy, Sallinger is a young man that the Green Shirts focus on cultivating, and now it seems that the Green Shirts still have to rely on veterans!

Li Feng's feeling seemed to have been affected just now, a soft ball on his wrist bounced out when he made a free throw, Garnett grabbed the rebound, and Rondo suddenly started to shake off Livingston after taking the ball to the front court, and rushed directly to the inside to throw a shot.

Livingston wasn't very nervous after being breached, because he knew that Li Feng was in the penalty area, and as long as Li Feng was there, then Rondo would be waiting to eat the big hat.

In the face of Rondo's layup, Li Feng hesitated, and when he made up his mind to defend, the fighter was fleeting, and Rondo's throw hit.

The Celtics scored, the Knicks came over, although Li Feng was not in good shape, but he broke through the ball, the Knicks reversed the ball continuously, and the basketball returned to the hands of Li Feng at the top of the arc again, Li Feng made a direct pass, the basketball broke through the defense line and went straight into the penalty area, Cousins received the ball, and his hands were violently dunked!

The two teams are inseparable, the score has not been able to pull away, Li Feng is not in good shape, the Celtics' continuous perimeter attacks have not returned, the two sides have launched a defensive battle, every player is extremely difficult to hold the ball every time, and the transfer of the ball is like a chain without lubrication, which is very obscure.

The Celtics are keen to take advantage of Li Feng's slump to complete the comeback, and it is better to play a scoring blaster. It's just that Li Feng's previous ferocity brought a shadow to them, and they always couldn't help but look at Li Feng's position first when shooting, so that the shooting speed was slow, giving the Knicks a chance to defend and counterattack.

Rondo didn't want to go on like this, and when it was the Celtics' turn to attack again, he waved his teammates to open up space, and Garnett also left the box to take Li Feng with him, and there was no doubt that he was going to use a single breakthrough to help the team open up the situation.

Seeing this, Celtic fans stood up nervously and expectantly, and they were full of confidence in Rondo's ability. Rondo's status in Boston now surpasses the aging Kevin Garnett and Paul Pearce.

They want to see a wonderful breakthrough in front of them right now. Because they really didn't fight back against Livingston's crotch-piercing pass and Li Feng's violent dunk.

Rondo bent down slightly, the orange-red ball bouncing on the floor, constantly shifting between his left and right hands, and J.R. Smith turned sideways to watch Rondo warily. His muscles were tense. His eyes were fixed on Rondo's shoulders. Mentally judging the direction of his attack.

Suddenly, Rondo's dribbling speed began to pick up, and the ball hit the floor with a dull thud. It's like a war drum beating on an ancient battlefield!

Rondo's right shoulder was pulled out horizontally, and the jumping ball jumped to his right hand at once, only to see the body of his bloody hand pull outward, his shoulders trembled violently, and his left foot stepped forward to the right, like a meteor flying through the sky, and rushed towards the left side of J.R. Smith.

"Get out!

Jr Smith roared, he moved quickly and straightened up in front of Rondo to block his attack, and Rondo's right hand holding the ball drew a thin line directly in front of Jr Smith, his left foot suddenly retracted and stepped forward to the left, and the ball in his hand bounced quickly on the floor and returned to his left hand, his body twisted and changed direction, and swept towards the right side of Jr Smith!

"!"

Jr Smith scolded in his heart as soon as he saw that he had been deceived, the center of gravity shifted to the left like lightning, and the wind brought by Rondo's rapid breakthrough whistled in his ears, just when J.R. Smith struggled to move to the left, Rondo's body shook violently again, the ball in his left hand was handed over to his right hand again, and the sole of his shoe rubbed the floor and his body moved half a meter horizontally, and changed hands again!

At this time, J.R. Smith could only try to move to the right side, but because his body was still moving to the left side due to inertia, there was a conflict between his feet and inertia, and he saw his body shake for a while, and then staggered two steps and was directly shaken to the ground!

The scene of Jr Smith stumbling to the ground may forever be fixed in Li Feng's eyes, and his teammate's wolf Bèi shocked him and made him uncontrollable, on the contrary, Rondo shook J.R. Smith and went all the way unimpeded, directly into the interior to easily come up, helping the Celtics open up the scoring situation.

None of the Knicks expected that J.R. Smith would be shaken down, they knew Jr's physique very well, and they were also full of confidence in his defense, so when this scene happened, even calm as Livingston was a little surprised, they didn't make up for it in time, and let Rondo score easily.

The Celtics fans were suddenly boiling, and Rondo's No. 9 jersey fluttered around the arena like a battle flag, and the DJ of the North Shore Garden Arena shouted in a passionate voice:

"Well done, you made the history of this arena, you shook your opponents, you shook the Knicks' morale, you became the hero of all Boston, you are Raja...... Rondo ......! ”

“Rondo…… Rondo…… Rondo……! ”

The fans responded to DJ with the continuous sound of "Rondo", and the atmosphere of the stadium was once again ignited under the guidance of DJ!

Rondo ran back and reached out to the fans in response, in fact, he also has some doubts now, based on his experience with J.R. Smith, his offense can't be so easy, let alone shake down J.R. Smith - only opponents understand each other's toughness, and Rondo probably knows this guy's terrifying fighting power better than J.R. Smith's teammates.

Looking at J.R. Smith's frustrated expression, and then looking at the proud look of the Celtics fans in the arena, Li Feng's blood boiled again!

"I'll avenge you, JR!" Li Feng roared, and J.R. Smith shouted:

"Feng, you must help me get revenge!" (To be continued......)
