The Celtics' next offense appeared to be patient, no longer obsessed with playing fast, and Rondo's veteran handling of the ball won the unanimous praise of the two commentators.

In successive rounds, he completed the opportunity to shoot in the open position in the non-stop passing inside and outside, and the Grizzlies did not do a very good job of clamping at this point.

“Lee!” Hollins made a gesture towards Li Ming, signaling to give distance, allowing Rondo, who is not good at shooting, to make a shot, restricting his passing route.

This tactic is mature and feasible, and it can infinitely magnify the shortcoming of Rondo's inability to shoot, and no matter who he plays with, he will stick to another person, ignoring Rondo on the outside.

"Come on, buddy, let's try a three." Li Ming and Bayless winked, and the two points stood in a horn posture, waiting for Rondo's shot from the outside.

Rondo hesitated for a long time and passed the ball out, but Wallace's shot overtimed and violated the rules.

Li Ming got the money and rushed to the opponent's basket, and began to slow down in one step at the free throw line, and Rondo was facing him head-on.

The height and weight of the two are very different, and they can be described as chess opponents. Li Ming leaned back tentatively, and Rondo took advantage of the situation to take half a step back, but Li Ming did not borrow his strength.

"Rajan has a lot of defensive experience, and in the past few years with Ray Allen and Paul Pearce, he has learned a lot of defensive skills from the outside, and the two seniors can be said to have taught each other. Lee still struggled to hit him in that position, so let's see what happens next. ”

Li Ming's height is 191 and his weight is 210 pounds, which is not a loss physically, but he is seen moving back and forth under the basket with small broken steps, first one left and then one right.

"Which side exactly?" Rondo was a little stunned by him, but his body was always in front of him.

At this moment, Li Ming suddenly stuck his leg behind him and made a clever turn, and Rondo immediately caught up and jumped up with all his might.

“Bi

go!!” At this moment, he was fooled, Li Ming once again made a dream step, stepping on the butterfly flower to score the ball, and Wallace and Rondo under the basket were shaken one after another.

71-71, the two teams were tied again.

"There's a little bit of Olajuwon's shadow on this ball, and now his footsteps are red, not only interior players like Howard are learning, but even outside players like Kobe Bryant and Barang Davis are learning from him." The footsteps of Olajuwon are indeed proud of the league.

A small guard like Li Ming has a lot of choices on the inside line if he learns such steps, but Li Ming has not learned from him in the system, it should be a built-in function in the system.

Jeff Green was again in line with Guy at the top of the arc, and Guy's long arm was always over his face, and he didn't have a chance to shoot first.

With the ball down and dribbling and looking for opportunities, Gerald Wallace stepped forward to block and Green took advantage of his cover to get to the free-throw line.

"Don't think about it!!" Guy screamed and fanned his ball away, and the words kept coming out of his mouth.

However, the referee's whistle blew, and yes, the ball was fouled, and Guy's movement was too big and hit the opponent in the face.

Guy tried to explain to the referee that this was a joint action, and even pulled the referee's sleeve with his hands, and the referee annoyed him and gave him a "T"

Well, give each other a point for nothing.

"Forget it, Rudy, you're already defending well, don't think about it anymore, hurry up and defend." Originally, the number of fouls in the whole team was less than four, and the opponent only needed to re-serve, because Guy's uncalmness lost a point in vain, and the ball was still owned by others.

Rondo played directly with Wallace in an aerial relay, and the power and angle of the ball were impeccable.

Rondo's data on the sideline showed that the probability of direct conversion into a score was the highest of any defender in the league.

That means he has a lot of balls that go high to the inside and go straight to score, like the one he just had. Arthur was a little immature under the basket, and he couldn't see his tricks, and he was taught a lesson again.

Coach Hollins on the sidelines made a pause gesture.

Sure enough, after returning from a timeout, Zach Randolph returned to the court, along with Marc Gasol, and the Grizzlies once again presented the strongest black and white teamup.

Durin immediately threw his third three-pointer of the game under the cover of Xiao Jia, and he hit three of the five three-pointers in total tonight, which was still very efficient.

But his shortcomings are also obvious, as a shooter, his shot is too slow, too many preparatory moves, this habit is not good, it affects his growth, there are too many opportunities to shoot the ball in his hands and eventually become a pass.

Coach Hollins is clear about his shortcomings, but he doesn't have mature shooters like Mike Miller and Ray Allen to replace him right now, so he can only let it go.

Fortunately, Xiao Jia's body is very large, which is enough to cover his shot.

Wallace was blocked by a front-of-the-line layup by Gag on a fast break, and Ga's playup put the Grizzlies' interior back into a no-fly zone.

"Mark, don't go so deep and pull it to the upper line." Li Ming and Gasol were shouting tactics.

Rondo was by his side every step of the way, and he would be very careful about the opponent's shot, but at the same time as Li Ming and Gasol shouted loudly, Li Ming's wrist flicked slightly, and the ball was in the hands of the empty Durin again.

A flash of golden light flashed over the North Shore Garden Arena and Kenyan Dulin hit his fourth three-pointer of the night.

"This kid has become the biggest beneficiary today, Zach on the inside and Lee on the outside are very closely watched, and he naturally has more opportunities." Shaq O'Neill commented on the situation in the field.

Yes, the average opponent will focus on those players with a big name, and the opportunities for role players will naturally increase.

Rondo was not bad either, and immediately took advantage of Wallace's cover to make a backhand layup and score. This ball Li Ming was entangled by Bradley next to him and was distracted, allowing Rondo to seize the opportunity and sneak attack one.

"Go from the left, from the left, and don't dwell too much on him." Coach Hollins kept urging Bayless on the sidelines to hurry up and get through the halfway and not to get too entangled with Bradley.

Bradley's defense is really good, and he has the shadow of Tony Allen, but for some reason today, the latter didn't get a minute of play, I don't know if it's because of injury.

The two commentators are also surprised by Tony Allen, after all, he is the core of the Grizzlies' outside defense, but since Li Ming's playing value, his playing time has shrunk again and again, and it seems that Coach Hollins prefers to use a three-guard lineup.

And Tony Allen lacked an accurate head on the outside, so he was abandoned.
