Chapter 256: S-Class Mission
So far in the game, Li Kaiming has been on the court for the rest of the time, except for half a minute of rest at the end of the second quarter, working hard like a donkey for the production team, but even so, at the beginning of almost every quarter, the Wizards are more than 5 points behind the Celtics.
In the final analysis, other people's performance is too bad, if the Celtics are on the bench, Blatch and Hinrich and others can still perform, but it is obvious that today's Green Army also wants to win this game, although the Wizards are not yet regarded as a super team, but after all, it is currently the first in the East, and the Celtics are just half a win behind the Wizards, so this competition for the first and second place in the East will determine the top position in the Eastern record list.
The higher the standings in the divisional standings, the more obvious the home-field advantage in the playoffs, and if you can enter the playoffs as the division leader, you will have home-court advantage against the remaining opponents before the finals.
As a championship team dominated by veterans, the Celtics naturally have to choose a path with the lowest physical requirements, so the first place in the East, the Celtics are almost inevitable.
Therefore, even though the Celtics are almost always pressing the Wizards tonight, their coach Rivers is still not ready to relax, so as soon as the fourth quarter came up, the Green Army once again took the rest of the starting lineup except the Sharks, and the interior line was still a combination of Garnett and Big Baby Davis.
On the Wizards' side, Li Kaiming still volunteered to lead the team, in fact, at the end of the third quarter, Sanders was still a little resigned, because as long as it was a person, it could be seen that the gap between the Wizards and the Celtics was really very large.
A large part of the reason for winning so many games before was that Li Kaiming's anti-sky performance, and part of the reason was that the other players were also in good shape, but as the season deepened, the level of the Wizards players began to fall towards their average level.
In fact, if you only look at the data, Nick Young and Hinrich in the team have improved significantly compared to last season, Hinrich mainly passes the ball to Li Kaiming, and his average assists per game have increased by 3, while Nick Yang is his own progress plus Li Kaiming's feeding, he can currently score close to 12 points per game, which is a lot better than last season, and according to this trend, the next contract should be able to sign 10 million levels.
Therefore, as a coach, Sanders also knows very well what level of his players are, and it is very normal to not be able to beat a stable championship-level team like the Celtics, as long as he can play something different this season and show his future prospects, the future after that must be very bright, after all, there is a rookie like Li Kaiming in the team.
But Li Kaiming didn't want to give up just like that, he said to Sanders on the bench, "Coach, let me take my brothers to rush again!" β
Sanders was moved by Li Kaiming's indomitable spirit, so he agreed to let the latter take the starter to play for a while.
In fact, Li Kaiming is also very uncomfortable at the moment, this should be the hardest game he has played since coming to NbA, except that his teammates were a little ugly defended by the Celtics, and he is not very comfortable with Garnett.
At present, he has played thirty-five minutes, but he has not scored more than 30 points, which does not match his previous efficient data and performance, this is the horror of Garnett's defense, the previous team had some teammates who could prevent his teammates, but there was no way to limit him, but after meeting Garnett who was serious about defense today, he finally realized that in the world's top league, there are indeed many capable people!
After the third quarter, Li Kaiming entered the system interface and saw that his fatigue value had risen to 39, and he was about to break 40, which was a new high after he entered NbA, and he had only played three quarters of the game, and there was no fourth quarter of more intense play.
The break between the third and fourth quarters was very short, and soon the technical desk urged the players from both sides to take the game, and Li Kaiming took to the court again with the starting lineup.
Victor on the commentary bench is more concerned about Li Kaiming's playing time, "Up to now, Li Kaiming's personal playing time has reached 35 and a half minutes, that is, he only rested for half a minute, and it seems that he will continue to play in the fourth quarter, can his body really hold up?" As far as I know, he's had a major Achilles tendon injury, and it's not worth it! β
Brydon on the side also nodded, "It's already very good for the Wizards to play like this, who would have thought before the start of the season that they would be able to play first in the East, and it will be difficult to play with championship-level teams like the Magic and Celtics, they should be proud of themselves, because their lineup is obviously inferior to the opposite." If I'm a coach, then I'll go with the flow, it doesn't matter if I lose this time, even if I can't make the playoffs this season, it's no problem, wait for next year to form a better team, and when the time comes, I will steadily enter the playoffs, and Li Kaiming may be able to grow into an mVp-level star next season......"
Of course, Li Kaiming also knows this, yes, most people will think so, in the first year, the team accompanied the rookies to practice, and then as the rookies grew, they gradually began to form a good lineup, which looked very harmonious and reasonable.
But he doesn't think so, he hates the feeling of losing, who dictates that rookies have to play badly in the first place when they enter the league? Who dictates that rookies have to lead the team to dive for the top pick? If, like the average champion, he lowers his standards for himself, and only thinks about his own stats in his rookie season, while completely ignoring the growth of the team, then isn't he ruining the God-given system?
Being able to get the system means that he Li Kaiming was born different from others, and what others can't do, he Li Kaiming has to do it!
Even if he can't do it, he has to try to do it as much as possible, instead of not even having the courage to try, and then saying that he can't do it, that's not his style!
Bite!
And at the moment when Li Kaiming walked on the court, a system task interface that had not appeared for a long time appeared in front of his eyes.

Mission: Win the 2010-2011 NbA Regular Season November Eastern Conference Player of the Year.

The system has not assigned tasks for a long time, and Li Kaiming thought that since the last attribute upgrade, even the task plate had disappeared, but now, it is not that the task system has disappeared, but that he has not encountered a suitable trigger condition.
Li Kaiming can also clearly feel that with the improvement of the league level he is in, the number of system tasks is constantly decreasing, for example, when he was still playing NcAA division games before, there would be a task in almost every game or even a single quarter of the game, but after "March Madness" and now NbA, the number of tasks is obviously not as much as before.
However, the level of the quest is getting higher and higher, which to some extent also makes up for the loss of the reduction in the number of quests.
The system said that he had a pure heart for basketball, and Li Kaiming didn't know what this so-called pure heart was, but when he told Sanders to let himself play and try again, he didn't want to lose in his heart.
Therefore, Li Kaiming boldly speculated that this so-called innocent heart was his instinctive reaction after encountering problems on the court......
A whistle interrupted Li Kaiming's train of thought, it turned out that the time was up, and the Celtics had already served from the baseline in the backcourt and began to prepare for the first attack.
After Rondo dribbled to the frontcourt, he beckoned Davis to come up to cover, and then broke through Hinrich to meet Li Kaiming, who suddenly accelerated after a hesitant step, leading Li Kaiming half a body to break through to the basket.
Li Kaiming followed closely, and just after the free throw line, Rondo suddenly switched to holding the ball with one hand in his right hand, and at the same time pushed his right arm back, looking like he was going to make a pass from behind!
Li Kaiming immediately stopped, ready to interfere with Rondo's pass, but he didn't expect this to be Rondo's signature move, the fake pass before the layup, directly shook Li Kaiming away, so that there was only Brazzy left under the basket, because Rondo's passing threat was too big, Bradge didn't dare to let go of Garnett under the basket directly, so he was scored by Rondo's two-step layup!
76 to 86! The margin widened to double digits.
The Wizards attacked and served to Hinrich, who used Blatche's cover on the way to the frontcourt to get rid of Rondo's harassment, and after arriving in the frontcourt, Li Kaiming went up directly to block Rondo again, so that the Wizards successfully let Hinrich face Davis, but the problem is that there is a Garnett on the inside, the latter's help defense is really strong, Hinrich broke through to the three-point line, hesitated for a moment and then came out again.
Davis pressed the defense back in front of Li Kaiming to prevent the latter from receiving the ball, Hinrich gave the ball to Nick Young, who decisively singled Ray Allen, turned over on the right side of the waist and missed the jumper, and Garnett rebounded the ball.
The Celtics got to the front court and handed the ball to Pierce, who received the ball from beyond the three-point line, faced the Alssoton defense, and the three threats mobilized the defender's center of gravity, and then broke through to the middle range before turning and throwing a shot.
76 to 88!
Many fans in the mcI center can't stand it anymore, the Wizards were beaten 4-0 in the fourth quarter, it seems that the more critical the moment, the greater the difference between the strong team and the weak team, the Celtics' strategy is very clear, if you don't understand the tactics, you will hand over the ball to the person who is most sure.
On the other hand, the Wizards can be recognized by the opposite side every time, and sometimes they can't even pass the ball to Li Kaiming, because they are afraid of being stealed in the process of passing.
The two commentators on the commentary bench also thought that the game was over, and Victor lifted his glasses, "The Wizards' tactics are too messy, even if they run out of the way, their players can't hit the Celtics' defense, I think the game is over." β
"Li Kaiming may still want to struggle, but there is not much chance, the Celtics are a completely different team in the fourth quarter, they played at a higher level, they just want to win this game, and then return to the TD North Shore Garden with the victory." Brydon, who was next to him, also nodded.
