112 First Race Unfavorable*

The commentators, the commentators, and the commentators are already turning over the data.

In the 94-95 season, Jones had 14 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2 assists in the regular season and 8.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2 assists in the playoffs.

In the 96-97 season, Jones had 17.2 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.4 assists in the regular season and 11.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists in the playoffs.

In the 99-00 season, Jones had 20.1 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.2 assists in the regular season and 17 points, 5 rebounds and 4.8 assists in the playoffs.

……

"So, Jones is a regular season star who pulls his hips as soon as he gets to the playoffs!"

The commentator concluded.

The game continues.

Odom and Cato played together under the basket and scored two points.

12:6。

The Heat stopped a mouthful of blood.

The Celtics attack.

Pierce stuck Li Lei in the low post to ask for the ball.

Li Lei pressed Pierce with his arms, but he didn't dare to exert force.

In this position, if you are close to Pierce, Pierce can break through and dunk with a turn, or lean back to roll over and jump shot.

Sure enough, Pierce felt that Li Lei did not exert his strength, and took the initiative to use his back to find contact.

Li Lei maintained his oppression of Pierce, and never let Pierce cling to him.

Pierce really didn't dare to turn over and jump shot directly, so he could only choose to turn around and break through.

Li Lei left room for the first time to move sideways to block Pierce's breakthrough.

Pierce couldn't get rid of Li Lei, and saw Odom approaching this side, so he could only choose a pullback, dribble under his crotch and stop urgently, and then pick up a backward jumper.

Li Lei stood up from the ground, his long arms stretched out, and the interference was sufficient.

Pierce only felt that Li Lei's long arms covered the sky and the sun, laying a net of heaven and earth.

But Pierce did not disarm and surrender, he forcibly twisted his waist and abdomen in the air, making the recline reach an exaggerated level, and the basketball could fly past Li Lei's fingertips.

Bang dang!

The difficulty was too high and the ball didn't go in.

But the basketball bounced off the frame, fell a second time, and fell into the frame.

Swish!

Fairy Ball.

14:6。

Li Lei looked helpless.

He did his best with this goal, but Pierce was too firepowered, and he was lucky.

No way.

The Heat attack.

Wade scored on a breakaway.

14:8。

Celtic attack.

Pierce advanced with the ball himself this time.

Half a step away from the three-point line, Pierce directly pulled up a jumper and pulled it up.

Basketball kills a stone.

Swish!

And also!

17:8。

The scene was amazed.

Miami fans couldn't believe it.

Pierce is a bit invincible today!

After the goal, Pierce looked at his palm, and he couldn't believe it.

Relying on Pierce's extraordinary play and Davis's outstanding performance, the Celtics ended the first quarter with a big lead.

28:19。

In the first half of the second quarter, the two sides came off the bench to give the main team a chance to rest.

Alston was decent, with Haslem visibly nervous, making just 1-of-4 shots.

There was also a butter hand under the basket, and the shot was covered by the basket.

I just can't see it.

Li Lei expected that Haslem couldn't sleep yesterday, and he was still flipping through the tactical manual in the middle of the night, and of course there was something wrong with his mental state.

The root cause is that I am still too nervous.

In the first half, the Heat dug themselves a big hole.

58:43。

The Heat trailed by as many as 15 points.

Coming back in the second half, Jones Sr. found himself.

He scored 5 points in a row, leading his teammates to a 10:0 attack wave, and once narrowed the gap to 5 points.

But that's when Ricky Davis stepped up.

He scored 2 points on a breakaway, then hit a three-pointer on a breakaway shot to big shooter McCarty.

Davis helped the Celtics stretch the margin to 10 points again.

Subsequently, Pierce took over the game.

Whenever the Heat close the gap, Pierce always puts the ball in the hoop in a variety of ways.

Li Lei tried everything, but he still couldn't stop Pierce.

In this way, the difference between the two sides has been fluctuating around 10 points.

Until the last three minutes, Wade made a mistake and was blown by the referee.

The two sides exchange possession.

Chaki Atkins came back and hit a three-pointer.

The margin is back to 15 points again.

The Heat offense, and the Celtics showed a bucket-like defense.

Approaching 24 seconds, the Heat still didn't have a chance.

Li Lei, the man who took the pot, resisted Pierce's close defense and forced his shot.

Bang dang!

Pierce took the rebound and went straight to the fast break himself, scoring another 2 points.

The margin was stretched to 17 points.

And that's the end of the game.

97:80。

The Celtics upset the Heat on the road.

It was also the only game in the first round of the playoffs.

Pierce went down to earth and slashed 32 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

Ricky Davis had 19 points, six rebounds and five assists.

McCarty had 14 points and seven rebounds.

Atkins had 12 points and six assists.

The Celtics are in great shape as a team.

Opposite.

On the Heat's side:

Jones Sr. shot 3-of-9 from the field and finished with only 7 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist.

Haslem was 1-of-6 from the field and finished with two points and four rebounds.

Butler was 3-of-13 for seven points, four rebounds and one assist.

The performance of these three is completely unreasonable.

Li Lei's data is also not good.

He shot 3-of-8 from the field and scored 8 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 1 block.

But among these 8 shots, Li Lei made 3 forced shots close to 24 seconds, which was to help his teammates carry the black pot.

In fact, Li Lei spent the whole game on Pierce, and all his energy was spent on defense.

It's a pity that Pierce's hand is hot tonight, and he can't stop it at all.

Li Lei defended well, but Pierce could still throw the ball into the basket.

This defeat immediately caused an uproar in the league.

The second place in the East lost to the seventh place in the East, which is a little better than the Black Eight.

Criticism ensued.

The first is Glenn Robinson: "I've long said that team basketball doesn't work in the NBA. Especially in the playoffs, it's the stage for stars. Look at Pierce, and then look at Stone, 32-8, is there anything else to explain? ”

Then there was Pistons head coach Larry Brown, who gave a postgame interview: "The Heat are a good team, but they have too many new people. The team needs experience and has to be led by reliable veterans. With just a group of newcomers, it won't go far. ”

Brown Sr.'s criticism was tactful.

The Nets' Kenyon Martin made no secret of it: "It looks like we can't meet the Heat in the second round, it's really disappointing." Hahaha...... The Heat simply don't deserve to be our opponents. ”

……

Faced with the storm outside, the whole Heat team was in a difficult situation.

It's hard to ignore the overwhelming criticism from the outside world.

All of a sudden, the whole Heat team was a little low, and the players were very negative.

In order to adjust the mental state of the whole team, Riley, Dafan, and Spo are ready to hold a summary meeting.

The results of the meeting were very good, and the state of the whole team changed significantly.

Li Lei also took the initiative to speak.
