Chapter 433: Seth Curry and Jeff Green
In the first quarter, the two teams played a good game, and the big battle was played as soon as they came up.
However, it can still make people feel a very strong sense of temptation.
The Celtics, who had been leading the game in the first quarter, were not in a hurry to expand the score under the command of Magical Monty, but were constantly testing Jokic, who was entrusted with the responsibility by Coach D in this game.
In the end, it turned out that Jokic is a playmaker who can play as a center, and he is a completely different center.
Yao Ming plays as a center forward, relying on his super offensive ability to lead the team first, and is not so anxious to attract the bag pass.
Or for Yao Ming, the bag doesn't have to be a pass.
In last year's finals, there were a lot of pictures of James and Wade sandwiching Yao Ming, and there were also a lot of pictures of Yao Ming doing James and Wade alone.
Jokic is completely different, Jokic is almost no offense.
Except for taking advantage of James's light enemy in the opening game and breaking through James to throw one, almost all the subsequent games were the kind of passes that attracted the pinch.
Take the initiative to attract the pinch shot, attract the opponent's defense, and then distribute the ball to the teammates who have the opportunity to attack.
Although the Celtics and the Fantastic Monty are testing the Lakers and Jokic, they are not fools, how can they keep packing, after making sure that they are not so easy to steal Jokic, the Celtics' bags are actually not so frequent.
But even if the Celtics don't flank the shot, Jokic can still create opportunities for the Lakers.
Jokic can dribble like a guard, and that's just so important.
That means Jokic can play pick-and-roll with any teammate on the court.
In other words, Jokic can send his opposing thick eyebrows to any of his teammates.
For example, send Bushy Eyebrows to Wade, before Sescuri, and to Garnett and Barkley.
Jokic is not so easy to hit thick eyebrows, but Wade, Garnett, Barkley, and even Seth Curry can all play thick eyebrows!
For example, Jokic and Seth Curry's blocking, after sending the thick eyebrows to Seth Curry's hands.
Seth Curry's quick run pulls the space.
Jokic, on the other hand, pulls the ball in reverse.
Thick eyebrows don't want to chase Seth Curry, but in the end they have to chase it, because there is no one to chase but him, and if they don't chase him, Seth Curry will be empty.
Of course, Bushy Eyebrows wouldn't really be stupid enough to chase Seth Curry.
The rest of the Celtics defenders will go after Seth Curry, but the thick eyebrows can't get back in front of Jokic, and the Celtics' entire defense is messed up and misaligned.
When all the defenders were out of position, Jokic took Paul in front of him to Barkley and handed Paul to Barkley.
Wade didn't have that easy to beat Paul, and guess what Barkley would have been like when he hit Paul.
A center who can dribble like a defender, if there is a strong ball quotient on the court, it is indeed quite powerful.
That is, Seth Curry's hand was not good in the first quarter.
Otherwise, it will definitely not be so easy for Celtic to stay ahead all the time.
In the entire first quarter, the Lakers got 30 minutes, Barkley scored 8 points, Wade scored 8 points, Garnett scored 8 points, and Antetokounmpo and Ibanks, who came off the bench, each scored two points, plus Jokic's 2 points, a total of 30 points.
Seth Curry shot 0-of-4 from the field throughout the first quarter and didn't score a single point.
But if Van Seth Curry can hit a three-pointer, it will be very different.
Jokic did a great job of combing the Lakers' offense throughout the first quarter.
Of course, Chris Paul on the other side also sorted out the Celtics' offense very well.
So, overall, the performances of the two teams are evenly matched.
If you have to decide the winner, it will definitely be the Celtic and the magical Monty who will win, after all, the Celtics are the side with the lead in the score, and at the same time, they are also the team that looks more comfortable.
At the end of the first quarter, players from both teams returned to the bench.
Players on both sides of the pitch were still cheering on the performances of both teams.
For the first quarter of this game, all the spectators on the sidelines were satisfied.
Lakers fans originally thought that their home was going to collapse before the game, and they didn't think that Jokic could perform like this at all.
The first playoff game is the Finals, and then on the court actually successfully played the role of the core of the organization, and successfully played the performance of the center of the organization, although the situation is unfavorable and the score is behind, but there is no problem with Coach D's operation, and it is really useful to get Jokic back, Popovich can't use Jokic, Coach D can really use it, and it is good to use it!
The Celtic fans at the scene were naturally even happier.
Coach D's reputation is prominent, and for Celtic fans, it is indeed a little worrying whether his magical Monty can really withstand Coach D.
And after the game started, there was no doubt about it, and the magical Monty was indeed very powerful, and he was indeed the head coach who beat Popovich.
Even if he is a super head coach who is as strong as Coach D, there is still nothing he can do in the face of the magical Monty.
If it weren't for the magic Monty, if he was changed to any head coach, he would have collapsed directly when he encountered the tactical strategy of Jokic, a popular water player like Coach D, to play the center of the organization.
No kidding.
Who would want to get a crotch hidden mine?
Jokic was used so well by Coach D, this TM is much more terrifying than the crotch of his pants, and he can't prevent it at all.
However, Monty Williams defended, even defended, and in the first quarter, he also took the initiative to attack and take the initiative to test Jokic's quality and Coach D's ability.
The other head coaches could not do anything in the face of Coach D and could only be reduced to a lamb to the slaughter, but the magic Monty almost made Coach D a lamb to the slaughter.
For Celtics fans, this is too TM fantasy.
Such a fantastic result is not only satisfying for the Celtics, but also for those behind the scenes.
There was no doubt that in the first quarter, the Celtics and Monty Williams took the initiative and were the ones who took the initiative.
After the failure of Coach D's conspiracy, Celtic and Fantastic Monty were always in control of the initiative and the situation.
At the same time, the magical Montilicis based tactical system completely liberated James's data.
James scored a game-high 14 points on 6-of-8 shooting in the first quarter.
In addition to that, the rest of the data is also very beautiful.
Well, it's just the stats of no assists.
Although Chris Paul is a fool and can see that he is the best player for the Celtics and the key to the Celtics, however, what kind of shoes is Chris Paul, what is the background, and the final winner must be LeBron James!
James got such good statistics in the first quarter, which made them want to win all the games.
Not only to defeat Coach D, but also to whitewash James, and finally whitewash the Demon King into a hero, in the end, David Stern and Coach D will definitely despair, right?
They were happy at the thought of David Stern's desperate appearance at this moment.
This guy who should have been out of the game is still in that position, which is definitely the key to affecting their control of the NBA and making them be suppressed by Coach D.
Thankfully, with Magical Monty, everything is fine now.
It is because this game can be won in full.
So, the neutral crowds of this match were also very happy, because finally, they saw another completely clean match without any stains!
You know, the referee of this game is Foster, the NBA's No. 1 'whistle'.
Now who doesn't know that Foster is a super black whistle, it stands to reason that he will be crazy about Black James in this game, but I didn't expect that in this game, Foster was very restrained.
There is neither a black James nor a black Celtic.
So much so that after the end of the first quarter, a lot of neutral spectators and fans were already partying.
Many James fans and Celtics fans also took to social media to thank the neutral fans for their support.
"Because we insist on justice, because we stand firmly by the side of the hero LeBron James, therefore, our voices are heard, they are afraid, and they no longer dare to hack our hero LeBron James!
It's not Jammy's victory, it's not just Kemi's victory, it's a victory for all NBA fans, it's our victory, it's your victory!
Let's toast to a great grand final! ”
In such a game that satisfies everyone, perhaps the only person who is not satisfied is Seth Curry who comes off the court.
Seth Curry played a full quarter in the first quarter of this game.
played the first quarter, but the data was very miserable 4 in 0, and he didn't get a single point.
On the pitch, he does nothing but open up space for his teammates.
Although none of his teammates have an opinion about him, as a key player of the team and a player who is reused by Coach D, it is difficult for Seth Curry to maintain a balance of mentality even if he is now strong.
Watching his teammates who rotated the lineup continue to play, Seth Curry felt as if he had been evacuated, and he even had an empty head and forgot what the coach had just arranged.
This Finals is definitely a Finals that reshapes Seth Curry's basketball values.
In the regular season, his unstoppable three-pointer had little problem with consistency.
But in the playoffs, his three-point performance has problems with stability, and although there will be supergod performances from time to time, superghost performances are becoming more and more frequent.
And in the finals, his three-point switch between supergods and superghosts became more frequent.
Before, he just doubted that he was really comparable to his brother?
Is his three-point and shooting really comparable to his brother?
And now, with the Finals here, he is now beginning to wonder if he and his brother's style of play can really become the top stars in the NBA?
Can this style of play really be successful?
Or is it that we are all destined to be just like Dad, just a super good role player.
At critical moments, shooters like us can never be relied on.
In fact, not only Seth Curry, but even Stephen Curry, who has been watching Seth Curry not far away and looking at his younger brother worriedly, is now a confused character in his eyes.
In this Finals, as the first person in the Curry family to play in the Finals, almost every game, they went out as a family.
The old Curry took Curry, and everyone expected Seth Curry to win the FMVP in the Finals, as if FMVP was the fateful honor that their Curry family must get.
Because only when they get the FMVP, their family's style of play can be recognized to the greatest extent, and they can be recognized and successful.
Otherwise, no matter how good the Curry brothers are now, in the mouths of experts, they will always be just shooters, and they are still the kind of shooters who are difficult to succeed.
And Seth Curry's performance in the Finals this year has deepened the impression of these experts.
Therefore, although the Curry family is still a family in this game, it is difficult for the audience in front of the TV to see Stephen Curry singing and dancing on the sidelines to cheer for his younger brother.
Stephen Curry is also quite confused right now.
If Seth's style of play can't succeed, can his own style of play succeed?
Now Seth's strength will definitely not be worse than his own.
The finals are completely different from the playoffs, even if he can be the so-called king of the Western Finals, when it comes to the finals, it may not be reliable.
Could it be that in the NBA, the stars who can dominate the NBA and are truly reliable will always be Jordan, Yao Ming, Maddy, Oden, Duncan, Kobe Bryant, and other stars with excellent body and technology?
Without a proud good body, can you really only be a mediocre star?
Is it really that difficult for ordinary people to leapfrog to become a historical superstar?
Well?
Just when Stephen Curry was confused with his younger brother, he suddenly saw that after Coach D arranged the tactics, he did not tell the Lakers players to play, but came to Seth and said something.
Stephen Curry was curious what Coach D said to Seth, however, he didn't know.
On the other side, Celtic's head coach Miraculous Monty is making the final arrangements.
"Jeff, in this Finals, you are one of our best players, this game is not dissatisfied with you, but our substitute, we need you, our team needs you, in the next game, LeBron will become the Celtics' strict defense player, and you are the only one who can save us."
"Jeff, now, you're the player who holds our destiny in your hands!"
How is Jeff Green feeling right now?
The whole head is empty.
I've become the savior of the Celts!
In this game, I played as a substitute and became the most important player for the Celtics!
"Jeff, remember, don't go to the three-point line after you get on the court, you just stand outside the three-point line, as long as you receive a pass from your teammates, don't care who the defender in front of you is, don't care if your defense is tight, shoot, throw that basketball outside the three-point line, even if you don't hit, you are still our hero!"
As the two most watched people in this game.
Coach D was talking to Seth Curry, who was sitting on the sidelines.
Monty Williams spoke to Jeff Green, a Celtics player who was going to play.
"Coach D and Fantastic Monty are the same head coach in a sense, they are always the best mentor for players, Jeff Green from the anger just now, now full of fighting spirit, without any confusion!
And Seth Curry, the same, although I don't know what Coach D said, but Seth Curry's eyes once again appeared with confidence! ”
"Coach D and the magic Monty's fighting style continues!"
"Let's look forward to seeing how Seth Curry and Jeff Green perform in this game!"
