Because the Wizards are too far behind now, Sanders simply filled the playing time of the starters again, and Li Kaiming and others put on the game again, ready to use the time when the opposite starter was not there to narrow the difference as much as possible.

In the second quarter, the Wizards served, and Hinrich faced Nate Robinson, which was much easier than facing Rondo, so he directly dribbled to play the frontcourt, and after blocking and dismantling with Li Kaiming, he faced the big baby Davis, directly changed the rhythm, and then broke through to the basket and hit a one-handed basket, scoring the first sports battle score since the opening!

23 to 35!

The Celtics sent the ball to Robinson, who quickly dribbled to the frontcourt, after a quick change of direction, leaned on Hinrich, who was half of his body, and killed directly under the basket, Blatch's defense was very timely, Robinson's layup missed under the interference of the latter, and Li Kaiming on the side squeezed Elden to win the rebound, and then handed Hinrich to dribble to the frontcourt.

The Celtics' substitute still defended Li Kaiming according to the starting strategy, so the latter simply gave the opportunity to his teammates, Hinrich broke through to the free throw line with the help of blocking and dismantling, and was blocked by the Celtics' two inside lines, so he passed the ball directly to Li Kaiming on the outside, and West, who defended Nick Young, directly let go of Nick Yang and came to make up for the defense, Li Kaiming stuffed the ball straight into Nick Young's hands, and the latter received the ball and shot, and hit three points!

26 to 35!

The Wizards came up and played a wave of 5-0, closing the margin to single digits, Doug Rivers immediately called a timeout, but did not rotate, but gave the players a few defensive precautions, and then let the bench back on the court.

After the pause, the Celtics served, after Robinson dribbled to the frontcourt, he broke through with the help of cover, attracting the assistant defense to give the ball to the big baby Davis in the middle distance vacancy on the other side, Li Kaiming immediately returned to his defensive position, but the reaction was still a little slower, and Davis threw in the middle distance.

At 26-37, the margin was back in double digits again.

Seeing that under his own tutelage, the team's bench lineup stabilized the situation, Doug Rivers next to the Celtics bench breathed a sigh of relief.

With 8 minutes left in the second quarter, Sanders made the first lineup rotation in the second quarter, replaced Yi Jianlian, who had been given a chance for a long time, and then took out a five-outside lineup, and Li Kaiming swayed to the No. 5 position again.

Seeing Li Kaiming and Yi Jianlian appear at the same time for the first time in a long time, the Chinese fans in front of the TV were all in high spirits! It's finally here!

Doug Rivers on the other side of the court was a little puzzled after seeing Sanders' rotation, because the Wizards' five-out lineup was not used many times, and the defensive playing time was not long, so analysts from other teams could not effectively analyze this lineup, and they could not see the depth of this lineup.

But judging from the team's lineup, the strength of this lineup must not be much stronger, so Rivers pressed the starters to the bench again, ready to continue to let the bench players try the strength of the opposite side.

After the game came back, the Wizards sent the ball in the front court, after Xinrich received the ball, he directly gave the ball to Li Kaiming on the outside, Davis knew that Li Kaiming's outside line was very accurate, and he didn't dare to put it so he followed, Li Kaiming broke through directly, Elden's height and weight were here, and his lateral movement couldn't keep up at all, so Li Kaiming's breakthrough attracted Davis's help defense, and after the latter completely followed up, Li Kaiming threw the ball to Yi Jiangang in the bottom corner!

Yi Jianlian has been in ambush here for a long time, and after receiving the ball, he has been practicing shooting at this rhythm every day for the past two months, and now is the time to test the results of training!

Shot, ball in!

39 to 42!

Rivers on the sidelines frowned, there is something in the bottom corner of the yellow-skinned thing, you can score when you come up, and it's a three-point shot!

The Celtics' offense was given to Davis on the inside, who used his body to force Yi Jianlian and quickly suppressed to the basket, but the throwing was interfered with by Li Kaiming, and the rebound was picked up by Yi Jianlian.

The Wizards quickly dribbled to the frontcourt, Hinrich dribbled and broke through with the help of cover, Li Kaiming followed down, and the two attracted three people on the opposite side, Hinrich saw an opportunity, and the ball was passed to Nick Young at 45 degrees on the same side.

Nick Young used a feint to directly shake off the rushing Drontiwest, and then made a steady three-point shot!

42 to 42!

In the blink of an eye, the 6-point gap just now was instantly erased by the Wizards!

Doug Rivers couldn't sit still, he immediately stood up and called a timeout, the firepower of this strange lineup on the opposite side was a little fierce, and the Celtics' substitute was directly beaten!

Sanders decided to keep them on the court because of the excellent performance of the five-way lineup, while the opposite Celtics took advantage of the timeout to get the starters back on the court after most of the quarter.

The Celtics' first offense was a single from Pierce, who used his skillful back-to-back skills to make a mid-range turnaround jumper.

42 to 44.

As soon as Rondo returned, he immediately strangled Hinrich with his strong defense, and in desperation, Li Kaiming became the core of the team again.

Garnett was still concentrating on defending Li Kaiming while harassing him with trash talk, and Li Kaiming dribbled the ball to look for opportunities outside the three-point line.

Yes, no matter what position Li Kaiming plays, the Celtics let Garnett defend the latter.

The Celtics' defensive system is very complete, and now it is impossible to use a simple block to find O'Neal to play, since you can't beat O'Neal, then the misalignment is big and small!

Thinking of this, Li Kaiming stretched out his hand to let Nick Young come over to block the demolition, seeing this scene, whether it was Garnett who was defending Li Kaiming, or Brydon and Victor on the commentary bench, these people were a little confused!

If it's going to be misplaced and big, shouldn't it be a small man with the ball and a big man to cover, why is the Wizards still going against others?

Garnett and Ray Allen, who had never encountered such a situation, naturally chose to switch defenses.

Just as Lei Allen lowered his center of gravity and was about to defend Li Kaiming's breakthrough, the latter directly pulled out a three-point shot on the spot!

Ray Allen: ?

Garnett:?

Brydon and Victor in the commentary booth widened their eyes, "Can you still play like this?" ”

Lei Allen was already half a head shorter than Li Kaiming, but he didn't react this time, and it didn't interfere with Li Kaiming at all, and the latter's three-point shot fell into the basket with a bang.

45 to 44! The Wizards trailed by 14 points at the end of the first quarter, but with 3 minutes left before the end of the second quarter, they directly overtook the score!

Doug Rivers clenched his fists on the sidelines and shouted to the players on the court, "Don't let him shoot threes!" ”

Celtic serve, this opportunity is here in Ray Allen, who is not the greatest scorer after Reggie Miller, and his mentality is still stable after being bukkake by Li Kaiming, and after receiving a pass from Rondo, he must hit in the bottom corner!

45 to 47!

Brydon on the commentary bench began to get excited, "The battlefield between the two sides suddenly came to the outside of the three-point line, the Wizards hit consecutive three-pointers in the past few rounds, and Ray Allen on the Celtics' side also immediately returned the color!" ”

Victor next to him asked, "Who do you think can win on the outside!" ”

"Of course it's the Celtics, they have Ray Allen, he's the all-time No. 1 off-ball shooter in my mind, and no one on this court can beat him on three-pointers, and Paul Pierce's three-pointers are also very good!" Brydon didn't even think about it.

"Have you forgotten Li Kaiming? He is now averaging 4 three-pointers per game, and his three-point shooting percentage is the most in the league! Victor reminded Brydon.

Brydon shook his head, "Lee is very powerful, but this is Ray Allen!" ”

In the exchange of two people, the Wizards have already served to the frontcourt, and this time the Celtics defended Li Kaiming's three-point defense very tightly, almost airtight!

So Li Kaiming repeated his old trick and called Xinrich to come over to cover, Rondo and Garnett thought that Li Kaiming was going to use the height to pull directly on Rondo's head, and the two tacitly cooperated, and finally clamped Li Kaiming on the three-point line.

But this time Li Kaiming didn't throw it for himself, because after the blocking, Hinrich was directly let go by Rondo, and the latter had run outside the 45-degree three-point line on the other side at this time, and there was no one to defend.

Taking advantage of the good vision brought by his height, Li Kaiming directly took the ball with both hands and threw it into Hinrich's hands!

Hinrich catches the ball and shoots it, and then adds three points!

48 to 47!

"Damn it! This guy's pass can't be prevented! Doug Rivers shook his fist in anger.

In desperation, the Celtics had to change their defensive strategy against Li Kaiming again, but fortunately, they had Garnett, who could come up with a single defense strategy that other teams could not think of.

And after a few rounds, Garnett started to work on the defensive end, because Rivers told him that if you want to win today, you have to guard against the top pick on the other side!

When Tough showed his housekeeping skills, even Li Kaiming, who was almost inexplicable on the offensive end, was a little tricky against the former.

Tall and long-armed, like a spider-man, and fast, and the awareness on the defensive end is also first-class, anyone who is right with such a player will have a headache.

Although Li Kaiming was not prevented from death, at least the efficiency was not as high as before, and he could also use his long arm to interfere with Li Kaiming's passing route, and Li Kaiming actually made 2 passing errors in the third quarter, all thanks to Garnett.

Garnett's seriousness on the defensive end, coupled with the difference between the two teams, quickly opened up again in the final minutes of the third quarter.

When the halftime whistle blew, the Celtics stretched the deficit to nine points again and led 65-56.

Li Kaiming played almost all 24 minutes in the half, only the last 30 seconds of the second quarter got the rest time, he was 6 of 13 in the half, including 3 of 5 three-pointers, and got 18 points, 3 rebounds and 5 assists, although the efficiency was not as good as before, but the score was still the highest among the players on both sides.

The rest of the Wizards regained their touch in the second quarter, with Nick Young having the best performance with 11 points and 2 rebounds, Hinrich making a big splash in the time Rondo was off the court, with 5 points and 6 assists, Bracch with 6 points and 5 rebounds, Yi Jianlian with 5 points and 1 rebound, and the rest of the players also scored in single digits.

After the first half of the game, the two commentators on the scene have begun to discuss what kind of results the Wizards can achieve this season, after all, judging from this game, the strength of the Wizards team must not be as strong as their record shows, and when they meet a real championship team, they will naturally have a disadvantage in the lineup.
