February 18th.

The Trail Blazers play the Celtics on the road.

If in the NBA, pick a team that Wang Dachun is most reluctant to meet, it may be the Celtics.

Not only does he hate the home atmosphere, but he hates the star whistle here.

Wang Dachun still remembers the first time he came to the home court of the Celtics, and in less than a quarter of play, he inexplicably made five fouls.

And the lineup of the Celtics has always given Wang Dachun a headache.

Before the start of the game, the Trail Blazers warm-up area.

"Wang, what are you looking at?"

Roy, who was doing a warm-up shot, noticed that Wang Dachun had been staring at the Celtics' warm-up area.

"I didn't look at anything, I was thinking about who on our team other than me can grab rebounds and grab Rondo?"

Wang Dachun said very ethereally. Roy listened a little confused.

"Ah, yes, this guy's punching ability is really amazing!"

"Pierce's current three-point shooting seems to be better than Ray Allen."

Wang Dachun changed the character he was talking about.

"Maybe? After all, Pierce is the three-point champion of this All-Star season. ”

Roy saw that Wang Dachun changed the theme randomly, and what he said was all nonsense, so he dealt with two sentences casually. Continue to warm up.

"This game is probably going to be lost again." Wang Dachun muttered to himself.

The Trail Blazers and Celtics have played each other once this season, but lost.

Although it was said that there was an outbreak of the Big Three in that game, Rondo's performance was definitely indispensable.

This is not only due to the organizational ability, but also the ability to grab rebounds.

"This guy is simply called a point guard center? His rebounding stats are higher than those of their home forwards! ”

……

Celtics starting lineup.

Jane Larondo.

Ray Allen.

Paul Pearce.

Kevin Garnett.

Kendrick Perkins.

Garnett was in a good mood today, having just beaten the Lakers, who are the No. 1 team in the West, yesterday. Although Kobe Bryant did not play in this game due to injury.

But a victory is a victory, and he still wins.

The victory in this game also brought the Celtics' record to 32-18 and improved their ranking to fourth in the East. It's a pretty good location.

For today's game against the Trail Blazers, Garnett believes that the odds of winning are also very good.

And not just because they have the Big Four (counting Rondo). And their team lineup is also very restrained by the Trail Blazers' lineup.

As Garnett thought.

From the start of the game, the Trail Blazers played passively.

Garnett singled Almi in the middle distance, and Almi couldn't defend at all. Garnett didn't shoot much, but he had an amazing high shooting percentage. 4 shots, 4 of 4 shots.

Wang Dachun naturally couldn't stand this situation, so he changed his guard to guard Garnett.

But Garnett played very smartly, and he stopped playing when Wang Dachun came to defend him.

There may be no one in the league right now who is not afraid of Wang Dachun's defensive ability, including him.

Of course, not making a move under Wang Dachun's defense is not his smart place, his smart place is to pull Wang Dachun to the outside. Create handroom for other teammates on the inside.

Let Paul Pierce be close under the basket and go to hit Batum with his back, how can the pink Batum be the opponent of Lao Pi.

In the face of this situation, if Wang Dachun dares to assist in defense or make up for defense. Pierce immediately distributed the ball in the box to Ray Allen or Garnett. Let the two make a three-point shot.

For Ray Allen's three-point shot, the Trail Blazers naturally no one dared to let him vacant.

But for Garnett's three-pointer? Wang Dachun gritted his teeth and tried to put Garnett's empty seat once. Go back to the inside to make up for Pierce.

"I don't believe that you can score 132 points."

As soon as Wang Dachun finished thinking about it, he was slapped in the face when he went to defend Pierce.

Garnett made an empty three-pointer and scored.

Wang Dachun is so angry.

He's not a three-pointer from Garnett. After all, people are based on their ability, as long as they have the ability to score points, they have the possibility of scoring.

He's angry with Garnett as he is now.

This kind of appearance was defined by Wang Dachun as being handsome.

"What's wrong with this guy? In the middle of the shot, you have to beat your chest and shout, and you have to hammer your chest and shout when you come in with three points, if you have the ability, you can go to the penalty area and beat your chest to show me.

An inside player keeps hammering his chest on the outside and yelling, are you sorry? ”

Wang Dachun could only complain powerlessly. This situation is really not easy to fight.

He's okay today, but the rest of the Trail Blazers? Not to mention the issue of their defense against Celtic players.

The Trail Blazers' own offense.

In addition to his super three-point ability, Ray Allen's defensive ability is also good.

Coupled with Roy's average form today, Roy's score is even lower under Ray Allen's defense.

Although Rondo's scoring ability is average, his arms are too long, and Miller on defense also struggles to score.

Batum and Almi. Face two all-star old fritters. A continuous foul that is not deceived is not bad, and the score is even less expected.

That is, Wang Dachun's point of playing Perkins is relatively stable.

But he was also taken care of by Garnett from time to time. There will still be some distractions.

At the end of the first half.

The score was 37-49 with the Trail Blazers trailing by 12 points.

Wang Dachun 19 points.

……

Halftime, Trail Blazers locker room.

The players were very quiet.

After all, they didn't behave well and were not in the mood to chat with each other.

Wang Dachun was touching his chin and thinking about it. His beard began to grow slowly and quickly during this time. He doesn't shave very often, so he has the habit of touching his chin.

"The defensive efficiency is not going up, and the score is getting bigger and bigger! I'm going to have to find a way to catch up. ”

Wang Dachun rarely loses confidence in his defensive ability. But the score is already more than 10 points behind, and the scoring efficiency can't go up, and he can't take it anymore.

"Forget it, you can spell it whatever you want."

……

The second half of the game begins.

Not only did the Trail Blazers fail to catch up with the score.

Once again, the scores of the two teams were stretched.

In order to consolidate the score, the Celtics continued to follow the tactics of the first half.

The number of three-point shots also began to increase. The hit rate is not very high, but it is above the level.

In order to defend Garnett, Wang Dachun did not dare to stay in the penalty area all the time. He was pulled out again by Garnett.

The existing strength of the Trail Blazers' interior line. In rebounding, he can't compete with the Celtics' "meat shield center" Perkins and "ball control center" Rondo.

Wang Dachun had no choice but to use his strength to open the zone defense mode.

But the Celtics scored too many points, and Wang Dachun couldn't care about it at all.

Just when Wang Dachun was in a hurry.

Garnett took the opportunity to complete a smash dunk. Although it is not Wang Dachun who is checked. But Wang Dachun was furious!

"Damn, it's not me who you're shutting up, you're beating your chest and yelling at me!"
