Chapter 200: Escaping a

Celtics' offense, Pierce holds the ball and faces Artest ready to play alone.

Because of the average state in the first two games, he was more involved in defensive investment and containment on the court after the opening, and he has not made a move.

But now that Garnett and Rondo haven't had a good offensive hand, he has to step up.

When Pierce was seen holding the ball, there was also a burst of cheering at the scene.

Although the Celtics have a glorious team history, Pierce's current status is similar to Wade's in the Heat.

After all, it is a home-grown player, and psychologically it is more loved by them than Garnett or Ray Allen.

Even if his performance in the first two games was stretched in his trouser pocket, they still believed that Pierce could adjust back.

Pierce faced Artest's ball-holding trio, tentative step, and then a ground-and-ground step-back jumper after a quick breakaway.

This is his signature offensive skill, and as a floor-flow player, he can become an All-Star, or even a player above the All-Star level at one point, and his skills are quite good.

Artest's defense of the ball was very good, basically sealing Pierce's shooting sight.

Although his ability on the defensive end has declined, he has suffered a bit against James, who has lost weight, but the defense of Pierce is still enough.

"Huh!"

However, Pierce hit the shot against Artest's defense!

Back at the familiar North Shore Garden Arena, his form seems to have recovered.

The ball made Rivers stand up from the bench with a "pout".

Pierce's state couldn't have come at a better time!

When the players on both sides are constantly playing iron, if someone can step up and play the ball at this time, then there is a chance to control the situation.

And after returning to the defensive end, under the beckoning of Rivers, the Celtics began to shrink their defense and maintain the intensity of their pinch defense against Xu Yong.

Although Thibodeau is no longer an assistant coach for the Celtics, he has only been away for two seasons after all, and they can still do what the Celtics have been doing for the past few seasons.

In the end, this wave of the Bulls' offense ended with Gibson's mid-range hitting.

In the next round, after Thibodeau chose to trap Pierce, who still used his step-back to hit a shot, Angie's strategy finally worked.

I can't fight for an all-out offense, but compared to a single-point score, the Celtics still have a chance.

Although Pierce has never been an efficient and productive scorer, and even his FMVP has been questioned because of his mediocre statistics, he has one thing that is recognized, and that is his performance in crunch time.

He may play a few games, but if the game hits the crunch time, he can still make those key shots.

As a player who was not included in the "supergiant" range, Pierce had as many as 7 kills in his entire career.

The most representative is that he joined the Wizards at the age of 37 in history, but he is still the first choice of the Wizards at critical moments, and hit a killer shot in the playoffs.

4 to 9.

After Pierce hit those two goals, the Celtics also built a huge five-point advantage.

Yes, in such a crazy game between the two sides, 5 points is already a big lead.

And the Bulls also encountered a big problem on offense, because the outside couldn't shoot, and the Celtics received very little, so they could only rely on the stars to solve it at this time.

But if you solve it hard, the Celtics' ability to help defend is very strong, and they can basically only get the kind of difficult shots under the pinch.

Especially Xu Yong, the Celtics' pinch attack on him tonight can be said to be unscrupulous, basically he has to pass the block to catch the ball, and even if he receives the ball outside the three-point line, he will immediately encounter the bag.

In such an unconventional game, his treatment is definitely SVIP level.

Rose still missed his mid-range shot, and the Bulls' offense still couldn't continue.

However, the Bulls' concentration on the court is still there, and the timely retreat still does not give the Celtics a chance to play a fast break.

It was at this time that Xu Yong took the initiative to change guards with Artest.

Because both sides didn't feel good, Thibodeau's choice of Pierce just now was a pinch attack.

But that didn't work out in the end, and Pierce was a bit of a bottoming out.

So how to defend him is the Bulls' current defensive focus.

Xu Yong's initiative on the court did not conflict with Thibodeau's strategy, and judging from Thibodeau's reaction on the sidelines, he was not opposed to such an adjustment.

Xu Yong also showed twelve points of concentration after facing Pierce.

He thinks a little more.

In this situation, if the Bulls want to break the deadlock, they still have to play to their strengths.

If you can't open the positional battle, then play the defensive counterattack that you are good at.

Although the Celtics' counterattack is also pushed quickly, with Rose on the Bulls' side, the defensive counterattack must be superior.

So as long as they can quickly form a conversion opportunity, the Bulls have a chance to play to that advantage.

Pierce holds the ball with his back and then faces Seo Yong in the basket.

Like Anthony, Pierce is a representative of classical players, and he will not give up attacking because Xu Yong has switched defenses to himself.

Of course, he will be more careful to deal with it.

After trying to get off the ball and found that Xu Yong was too tight to have a chance to get off the ball, he returned the ball to Rondo, and then reset the pivot foot and then chose to play with his back to the ball.

Unlike Jordan and Kobe, Pierce's back play is mainly about a rhythm.

Consecutive matchups, then a step-and-go jumper to the free throw line.

He tried and tested this trick again and again.

And he was slow at other times, but he retreated very quickly and successfully got rid of Xu Yong.

But at the moment when he made a move, Xu Yong jumped up from in front of him.

Pierce's expression at this time was almost identical to Anthony in the first round.

Didn't I just shake Xu Yong?!

"Smack!"

Just like the ball that covered Anthony's washing machine spin in the first round, Xu Yong was stunned to complete the ball grab with his amazing bounce and excellent arm span after being freed!

The fans at the scene were stunned, this pure talent suppression!

After completing the cap grab, Xu Yong quickly advanced to the fast attack.

Rose also rushed out of the wing at the first time, and after receiving Xu Yong's pass, he galloped all the way to the frontcourt for a fast-break dunk and scored.

Compared with the fast attack ability, Rose said second on this field tonight, and no one dared to say first.

After Ross retreated, Xu Yong also gave him a high-five.

The first round worked after the strategy adjustment, which is a very positive sign for the Bulls.

Pierce's choice after being caught was to run off the ball.

His scoring explosiveness is not as explosive as Anthony's, which makes him not as good as Anthony when he is leading the team alone, but he is no less offensive than Anthony.

And most importantly, the Celtics are clearly the better team than the Knicks.

After delaying Seo Yong with the help of successive blocks, especially Garnett, Pierce received the ball and completed the shot.

Although Xu Yong pounced and gave a strong interference, the ball still hit the basket after the shot.

He's not just rebounding, he's a little hot.

However, in retrospect, Artest received Xu Yong's three-point shot from the outside and gave a strong response.

This three-point came at a good time, not only because the score allowed the Bulls to chase the score to 9-11, but more importantly, the outside line was shot, whether it was Yao Ming on the inside or Xu Yong himself in the high position, the pressure on the bag would be much less.

Then, when Pierce ran off the ball to contain the defense, Garnett's iron-clad jumper from the free-throw line finally hit.

The two sides of this section are starting to find a little bit of a feel.

It makes sense.

Angie's idea was good, but it wasn't a few degrees below zero in winter.

Although the temperature in the stadium is a little cold now, the players are slowly warming up after running on the field.

Rivers was the first to realize this, so he immediately signaled for the court to adjust his defensive style.

When Xu Yong catches the ball at the three-point line, he finds that he is finally no longer being caught in this position.

And the person who defended him also changed from Ray Allen to Pierce.

Pierce is more physically fit than Ray Allen, and will be better at defending Xu Yong, and if he is just defending three-pointers, Ray Allen's movement speed is better suited to defend Artest than Pierce.

Like the previous Bulls' adjustments, the Celtics' response to this wave is no problem.

However, Xu Yong was happy after seeing this scene.

Pierce feels too good in this section, especially the Celtics, who are also very good at blocking and dismantling, and it is really not so easy to completely press him to death.

In this case, the only option is consumption.

The attrition is not only on the defensive end, but also on the offensive end.

He had been thinking of fighting Pierce, and now Pierce had sent it to the door himself.

He reached out and motioned to pull away, then leaned his back against Pierce and started his back-to-back shot directly from beyond the three-point line.

Passing Pierce will not achieve the purpose of consumption, and this kind of back-to-back confrontation is the right way to open.

Pierce also sank his weight to confront Xu Yong, but the result was that he was pushed back and forth.

It is obvious that he is inferior to Xu Yong in terms of confrontation.

Seeing this, Rondo came from the top of the arc to help defend, and Xu Yong turned directly to the bottom line to break through.

After carrying Pierce to break through to the three-second zone and seeing Yao Ming successfully jam Garnett in the restricted area, Xu Yong chose to make a layup after confronting Pierce.

Seeing that he couldn't stop Xu Yong from making a move, Pierce pulled Xu Yong down directly from behind him.

The players who have grown up in Boston don't need Xu Yong to preach like Yi Jianlian, and they will never be soft when they foul.

The referee's whistle blew for a defensive foul on Pierce.

However, Xu Yong is naturally the master who will not suffer, and he has been taught by James in the past two years, and he is not used to these dirty actions.

He seemed to be the inertial movement after being pulled, but he directly gave Pierce an elbow to his lower abdomen.

Pierce's pupils contracted instantly, and then he fell to the ground holding his lower abdomen.

Rondo and Garnett quickly confronted Seo, but politely kept a safe distance from him.

The referee instantly rushed between the two sides and separated them.

Because Pierce had been lying on the ground and had not gotten up, the match went into a technical timeout.

The Celtics team doctor came over and asked about Pierce.

If Pierce wasn't black, his face would have turned pale at this time.

It took a while for Pierce to smooth out that breath and was picked up from the ground by his teammates.

When he got up, Garnett patted him on the shoulder, then nodded to him secretly.

That expression is clearly praising his good acting skills.

He was under the basket and had a clear picture of what was happening under the basket.

Xu Yong's elbow was actually not too ruthless, it was more of a response to Pierce's actions, not the kind that really wanted to waste people, with Pierce's physical fitness, it would not be said that the reaction was so big.

That's not it, it's acting, in the NBA, some supergiant fake falls, this kind of acting is normal.

Pierce was a little crying and laughing at this time.

He was in real pain.

It is true that Xu Yong's elbow is not too hard, but the crux of the problem is that his stomach is not very comfortable tonight, which is equivalent to sprinkling salt on the wound.

After it was determined that Pierce was fine, the match was able to continue.

Xu Yong goes to the free throw line to take a free throw.

The referees had already gone back to watch the video during the technical timeout, and Xu Yong's movements were the same as the original opening of James's eyebrows, which were all inertial actions after the opponent's foul, and it was difficult to tell whether it was intentional or unintentional.

And in fact, even if the referee determines that Xu Yong is intentional, the penalty in this round will not be changed, this is a topic about the authority of the referee, and at most he will only find a balance whistle in the next round.

Xu Yong goes to the free throw line to prepare for a free throw.

At this moment, he noticed that Pierce's expression was a little painful, and it seemed that there was cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

The expression seemed familiar, but it seemed that I couldn't remember it all at once.

"First penalty."

At this moment, the referee's voice reminded, and Xu Yong drew his attention back.

Xu Yong's two free throws were both hit steadily, and they almost went in with the net.

After the body warmed up, the feeling of the hand or something was indeed completely restored.

It was just after he scored that he noticed that Pierce's expression suddenly changed.

The expression of pain seemed to disappear in an instant, replaced by a look of relief.

This strange scene made him very puzzled.

The game continued, Pierce was still running without the ball, and Xu Yong was chasing after him.

But as he was running, he suddenly felt a pungent smell hit his face, and he almost choked him.

"Toot!"

Just then, the referee blew the whistle, and Gibson was whistled for a defensive foul for the basket.

The game entered dead ball time, and at this moment, Xu Yong felt that the stench was still there.

After playing in the United States for so many years, Xu Yong has not seen biochemical weapons on the court, especially the armpit smell of some black people, what armpit fragrance, a armpit smell comes first, and then breaks through, which is a common thing.

Except for a few cases with a particularly strong taste, Xu Yong is basically immune.

But this one tastes different.

It may not feel strong when he runs ahead, but when he stops, he immediately realizes that it is not some body odor, but a stinky smell.

"Whoever farts, it stinks." He couldn't help but look at Buzz in front of him and asked.

Bas hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal that it was not him.

It's a very challenging thing to do about farting in public to prove that it's not you.

Garnett, who was on the side, tensed up instantly, and this sentence hit him instantly like a "y".

Because of the G1 game, after he sprayed trash talk at Yi Jianlian, Xu Yong responded with this sentence.

Now that Xu Yong actually said the same thing to his face, thinking of Xu Yong's elbow hitting Pierce in front of him, it really made him angry.

It's just that that anger comes and goes quickly, because he went to search for Xu Yong's NCAA flying knee before, and that did happen.

And in the next second, he also smelled a foul smell.

This time, Xu Yong was really not talking trash talk, but someone really just let out a fart, a stinky fart.

After seeing Garnett's reaction, Xu Yong looked at Pierce in the next second.

He smelled the stench when he was chasing Pierce, and he instantly remembered Pierce's previous expression at the free throw line, which was clearly the expression that only comes when he had a stomach.

So Pierce doesn't have a good stomach tonight?

Pierce's face flushed at this point, as if some secret had been spied on.

The game continued, and Pierce continued to run without the ball and then took the ball and hit again in the face of Gibson's interference.

After hitting this shot, Pierce spat trash directly at Xu Yong: "Put away your lame defense, this is Boston, you can't stop me!" ”

Garnett is the king of trash talk, and Pierce is not far behind, trash talk is a black art that is a Boston tradition.

Xu Yong covered him and elbowed him again, and the look in his eyes just now made him very unhappy, and after finding an opportunity, he squirted out without hesitation.

Xu Yong's expression was playful, and Pierce's level of trash talk was still a little worse than Garnett's.

But remembering the previous conjecture, he smiled and said in a playful tone, "Really? Be careful I knock your out. ”

A seemingly ordinary trash talk made Pierce subconsciously tense up, snorted coldly and turned away.

Seeing this, Xu Yong already knew it.

When it came to the front, he continued to ask for the ball and continued to play Pierce with his back.

But this time, he was continuously hard chiseled, very tough.

If it weren't for the five-second limit on his back, he would have jerked Pierce to the end.

Pierce blushed from being pushed.

Not only did he have to work hard to hit Xu Yong's back, but he was also trying hard to contract his sphincter.

After being elbowed by Xu Yong in front, he was also doing the same thing, but in the end, he didn't catch it when he ran without the ball in the frontcourt.

Thankfully, it was just a fart.

But at this point, you must not trust the next fart, because it is likely to be all of a sudden it is not.

He has a lot of experience in this area.

And he's already figured out how long it takes to get to the dead ball, no matter how tense the game is, he's going to have to apply to come off the pitch to solve his personal problems.

Xu Yong finally gave the ball to Rose after being caught in the pinch attack, and Rose broke through to attract the pinch and then distributed the ball to Xu Yong, who re-cut.

Xu Yong was in a state of acceleration at this time, and after receiving the ball, he took off directly into the air.

Pierce was still trying to keep an eye on the defense, but he didn't expect Xu Yong to suddenly get up, and this time he was directly deducted from the bottom line.

He was miserable enough to fall and collide directly with the photographer brother under the basket.

And unfortunately, his stomach came into negative contact with the camera.

His whole body tensed instantly, and then curled up in a ball under the basket.

It hurts, it hurts!

There was an uproar at the scene, and Xu Yong's response to the ball was extremely tough.

It was at this moment that the referee blew the whistle.

It wasn't that someone had fouled, and there was something wrong under the hoop, and Pierce seemed to be injured.

And it's weird that the photographer brother who was originally hit by Pierce under the basket doesn't know where to run.

The team doctor also quickly came to Pierce's side.

But as soon as he got close to Pierce, he couldn't help but frown.

Because he smelled a very clear stench.

And he quickly zeroed in on the source of that stench, Pierce's buttocks.

In the middle of it, a stream of yellow liquid was oozing out, and it was gradually expanding.

He reacted quickly and immediately called the Celtics players to fence Pierce and then asked someone to get a wheelchair.

The fans at the scene couldn't help but show concern on their faces, Pierce was in hot form tonight, and this injury was too inopportune.

Of course, they also hate Xu Yong at the moment, they didn't realize that Xu Yong was such a dirty player who played ball.

Pierce was eventually lifted into a wheelchair with a painful expression and then carried into the tunnel by his team-mates on the bench.

However, it was this scene that made some old fans at the scene look forward to it, because Pierce had a similar experience in the 08 finals.

At that time, Pierce staged a return of the king, and finally led the team to victory.

At this time, the cameraman who didn't know what to come back did not immediately continue to work, but motioned for the mopping staff to come and clean up.

The staff looked puzzled, but when they saw the small puddle of yellow liquid under the basket rack that still smelled of it, their faces changed in an instant.

Thanks to their professional training, they quickly disposed of it with a mop while holding their breath, and then called for their companions to mop it with a new burlap and quickly took the mop into the players' tunnel.

The photographer eventually returned to work with the camera, but he apparently avoided the mopping position.

Well, all of this is happening right under Xu Yong's nose.

Unlike the reaction of the photographer and the staff, he tried to hold back his laughter the whole time.

Because he found out that he really shot Pierce, the physical one.

And at this moment, he also understood why Pierce was in such good shape before.

You remember that when he played League of Legends before he was reborn, he felt sick to his stomach halfway through the fight, but he didn't want to be sprayed by his teammates.

This episode passed, and the game continued.

And a very interesting thing is that because of Pierce's injury and departure, as soon as Xu Yong gets the ball in the offensive round, there will be an overwhelming boo on the scene.

Xu Yong really offended Boston fans at this time.

Even Petrus, who came off the bench to defend him, was extraordinarily aggressive.

Xu Yong's inner OS at this time is: Your own air conditioner is "broken" and makes Pierce have a stomach, and finally blame me?

Then he motioned to pull away and chose the singles directly.

Petrus is 1.98 meters tall, a French forward who has made a presence with the Suns and the Magic, and he has just turned 30 at this time, and he can still play as a role player.

On the first ball, Xu Yong saw that the Celtics did not hit and directly chose a stop-and-turn jumper that broke through the basket.

Although Petrus tried to keep up with the rhythm, there was basically not much he could do in the face of Xu Yong's turnaround jumper.

Xu Yong is not only superior in speed and size, but also perfect in the use of technology.

"Huh!"

He hit a solid jumper and showed his warm touch.

The goal also brought the boos to an abrupt end.

They really hate Xu Yong, but Xu Yong is also really strong.

This feeling is too similar to the feeling given to them by the Bulls after Jordan's rise.

Looking back, the Celtics didn't manage to score as well.

They didn't have many means of positional warfare, Ray Allen was sidelined, and Pierce was "injured", even if the feeling on both sides recovered at this time, only Garnett's iron-blooded jumper and Rondo's six-vein divine sword.

And after Yao Ming protected the defensive rebound, the Bulls played a defensive counterattack again, this time it was Xu Yong, after receiving Rose's ball, in the boos of the fans in the audience again, the air gliding lever flashed Rondo's long arm interference and sent the ball to the basket.

The boos turned into agitation.

From the moment he began to enjoy Boston's boos, Seo responded with consecutive scores.

Just like the ball he knocked over Pierce before he was booed, there is no place in Xu Yong's body that is not hard.

What's even worse is that Xu Yong's continuous scoring has a great impact on the situation on the field.

If the Bulls pull the score away, then even if Pierce can come back, it won't help at that time.

At the critical moment, the person who stepped up on the Celtics' side was Rondo.

The guy, who scored 44 points in the last game, hit a 20-foot two-point jumper in the high post against Rose's defense.

There is no gratuitous preference, and the preference that has been given to him this season by either the management or the coaching staff has been earned by him with his on-field performances.

Ray Allen's performances during the regular season showed his potential as a team leader.

He continues to show that.

After dropping back into defence, he also used his on-court judgment to direct his teammates to defend and settle down.

It must be said that this command of his was very successful.

After the Bulls settled down to play a positional battle, Xu Yong was forced to distribute the ball to Artest in the pinch.

Artest shot another three-pointer, but unfortunately this time he was a little unlucky, and the ball went in and bounced out.

The ball was a long rebound, and after judging the basketball landing point, Garnett directly threw off Yao Ming and jumped up with his long arm to grab it.

But just as he was about to touch the basketball, he suddenly felt a sudden gust of wind blow in the back of his head.

Before he could react, he felt a strong force push him from the air in the direction of the basket.

At this time, the Green Army fans in Boston were already stunned, because they saw Xu Yong rising from the ground and pressing directly across Garnett towards the popping basketball.

And the key is that his strong core strength directly knocked the sideways Garnett into the air.

"Bang!"

The loud muffled sound came through the loudspeaker, coupled with the visual impact, everyone at the scene was stunned.

Perhaps at this moment, many people remember that Xu Yong was the dunk king who defeated DeRozan, Nate Robinson and James in the slam dunk contest.

Garnett fell under the hoop like Pierce after being knocked away, looking up at Xu Yong, who was swinging above his head with bulging muscles, I don't know why, according to his personality, he should be angry, but he couldn't get angry.

"If Paul doesn't get back in time, the Greenshirts are in big trouble." On the commentary seat, Reggie Miller sighed.

Although the Celtics are now only 2 points behind the Bulls, the situation of the game has clearly turned in favor of the Bulls.

This will be shown in the next round as well.

The Celtics, who have strong discipline and execution, actually made a very low-level passing error, and directly gave the Bulls a ball for nothing.

And the final price paid for this wave of ball possession was that, looking back, Xu Yong singled out Petrus in the high position, and then hit the rebound shot to the bottom line to meet Garnett, who assisted in the defense.

This ball is very difficult, if he only recovered his hand feeling before, then this period he is already moving towards the state of [hot hand].

This time, even if there were still boos on the scene, it was only some sparse part.

Because the fans also realized that their boos would not only have no impact on Xu Yong, but might even make his performance even better.

It's like their resistance, which will make Xu Yong even more excited.

Xu Yong is indeed a little excited now.

Rondo's classic fake fax sudden layup shook Yao Ming's layup, but it was this beautiful offense that Xu Yong judged and came directly after killing from the diagonal side.

And after picking up the rebound, he pushed the fast break again and made a pull-up three-point shot at the top of Ray Allen's defensive arc.

"Huh!"

The basketball pierced the net like a cannonball.

24 to 17.

The difference came to 7 points in an instant.

And in the process from 13 to 15 to 24 to 17, Xu Yong scored 11 points in a row!

And after throwing in the three-pointer, Xu Yong turned around, put his hand behind his ear to listen, and did an Iverson trademark celebration .jpg.

The meaning of this action is because there are two kinds of home and away, the home is a little louder, and the away is more domineering, generally for boos, which can be simply and rudely understood as "louder, I can't hear it".

The reason why Xu Yong didn't celebrate with his trademark hand-spreading gesture is also because his direction is very clear at this moment.

What about the boos ahead? What about your boos? How I can't hear it!

The scene was agitated.

It's really arrogant, but you really can't do anything about him.

Seeing this, Rivers quickly called a timeout, and if he didn't call a timeout, the Celtics would soon collapse.

At this time, in the locker room of the Celtics, Pierce was in a state of flux.

Thanks to the fact that the game was going on at this time, the Celtics players would have thought that their locker room was attacked by biological weapons.

Pierce was also unbearable and blocked his nostrils with a tissue.

Finally, after emptying his stomach, although his feet were a little weak, the whole person was finally comfortable.

It's really hard to prevent stomach trouble, and if it's before or after the game, he doesn't worry about it at all.

But in the game, when the game is fierce, you can really just endure it.

The fact that you hear players peeing on towels is not an exaggeration, it's something that actually happens, and it's happening to the main players.

Because the time they spend going back and forth to the locker room is enough to affect the outcome of the game.

And this time it's also completely a teammate's pot.

In order to keep the news from leaking in advance, Angie also waited for them to arrive at the stadium before telling them about the air conditioning.

Thankfully, he's got experience in that.

He also had a stomach upset in the 08 finals, and he was injured thanks to his wit.

Fortunately, the team doctor has not changed in the past two years, and the team doctor responded calmly and calmly when he found out that he encountered the same situation to avoid his embarrassment.

But just as he finally solved his personal problem and got up, put on his pants and prepared to flush the toilet and leave, he suddenly noticed something very terrifying.

Patronized and released, the toilet is clogged!

He hurriedly turned around and covered the toilet, washed his hands with nausea, turned on the ventilation system in the locker room, and then called the staff to deal with it, and then hurried back to the field.

It had been about a quarter since he left the ring, and he had to hurry back.

And because of the experience last time, he believes that he can completely stage the drama of "The Return of the King" again.

Even when he walked to the door of the players' tunnel, he had already thought about the camera pointing at him, and then the Boston fans cheered for him.

It's just that the further he walked, the more he felt that something was wrong, because the arena was so quiet that he thought he was in the wrong place.

And when he walked out of the tunnel with a puzzled expression, the scene he had imagined didn't come out at all.

It's not that no one noticed him, the fans in the tunnel spotted him, but they didn't show any excitement.

He looked up in confusion, and then saw the score on the field.

40-25, about five minutes before the end of the second quarter, but the Bulls have already extended the margin to 15 points!

Yes, Rivers' timeout didn't stop the Bulls from rising.

Under the leadership of Xu Yong, the Bulls have stretched the difference to more than 15 points in the first half for the first time in the series.

And because of his previous action, the fans at the scene didn't even dare to boo at this time.

Pierce didn't learn that until he walked to the bench and sat down again and spoke to his team-mates.

On the court, Yao Ming received Xu Yong's sudden ball and completed a two-handed heavy dunk under the basket.

Xu Yong's organizational skills have been significantly improved this season, and when he is in hot form, he can lead the whole team.

Rivers shook his head helplessly, and that's when he noticed Pierce's return, and it didn't seem to be a big deal.

There was no time to think about why Pierce came back so quickly, so he just called Pierce up and put him on the field to replace Petrus.

If the Bulls continue to stretch the gap like this, this second half will become garbage time.

A short whistle blows on the sidelines, and Pierce comes on as a substitute.

There was a burst of cheers at the scene.

Although they were stunned by Xu Yong's flax in the past time, they saw some hope again when they saw Pierce return.

Pierce is still powerful, he was released, he came up and ran to catch the ball without the ball, and scored two points with a fake shot and a quick layup.

After being released, he felt extremely relaxed now.

The 15-point difference is not completely out of the question, and he is ready to put on another comeback of the king.

Xu Yong arrived at the front court and found that the person defending him was still Pierce, this time he was not only happy, but also had a smile on his face, and asked politely: "Finished?" ”

Pierce was high-spirited, but when he heard Xu Yong speak, he couldn't hold back directly.

It's more lethal than any trash talk!

Although his psychological quality is very strong, at this moment, he only feels that his face is hot and red like a monkey's ass.

This kind of thing is more humiliating than being tulled on the court.

At this moment, Xu Yong had already asked for the ball, and then passed him in one fell swoop.

Xu Yongcai didn't care if Pierce didn't finish pulling, even if he pulled the blocked toilet, it had nothing to do with him, he just said a mediocre trash talk, and then took the opportunity to pass by.

When Pierce reacted, Xu Yong had already turned around and smashed the ball into the basket with a one-handed slam.

Because he was afraid of Xu Yong's pass to Yao Ming, Garnett didn't dare to help defend easily at this time.

And looking back, Xu Yong once again took the initiative to change the defense of Pierce, and this time he followed closely with the whole court regardless of his physical strength, and finally successfully covered Pierce's retreat.

He knew very well that the Celtics had lost their temper tonight, and holding down Pierce would end all the suspense.

In fact, it is true, after Pierce was blocked, the fans at the stadium also felt that the last crack in the door of the Hall of Victory was completely closed.

In the end, the Bulls defeated the Celtics 103-79 on the road.

The process and result of this game can be said to have surprised many people.

In a sense, he is very similar to G3 in last year's finals.

The Mavericks didn't lose much in the end because of Nowitzki, while the Celtics, who had Garnett, ended up losing badly.

This is a validation of the previous evaluation of the two super power forwards on social media by fans of their ability to lead the team.

According to the post-game statistics, Rondo had 21 points and 10 assists, and his performance tonight was unexpected, and he was the only bright spot for the Celtics.

Although Pierce was a highlight in the first quarter, he did not stage the return of the king, but the performance on the court was also blocked by Xu Yong, and the final data was also fixed at 14 points and 4 boards.

And what was worse than the performance was that the experience of this game was as "unforgettable" as Garnett said after the G2 game.

On the Bulls' side, Xu Yong played the strongest game of the series, with 34 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks.

And what's very funny is that unlike the 08 finals, this time because of the larger volume, many fans have photographed the puddle of things in the arena.

In particular, the high-definition photo taken by the photographer under the basket went viral on social media.

[Xu Yong beat Pierce out of the] This matter should be widely spread in the history of the NBA like other famous stalks.

Trailing 2-1, Celtic were pushed to the edge of a cliff, and in G4, they performed their legendary floor tactics.

is naturally Xu Yong.

The right hot zone, where he excels, has a noticeable lack of elasticity in some of the floors.

And the Celtics also consciously drove him to the left area, which was the area he wanted to grasp lower.

That's right, because of the shooter, the efficiency of the player who wants to shoot the right hand on the left side will be lower.

Xu Yong's offensive performance has declined, but at the end of this game, Xu Yong's contribution to the game is still not low.

Or in this game, he showed James what he can do when a player doesn't go well offensively.

He took advantage of his bouncing to grab four frontcourt boards, and he completely locked Pierce on the defensive end.

These are all things that can help the team a lot.

And after losing G4, the big score of 1-3 behind basically announced the final outcome of the Green Shirts.

Despite their resilience in Chicago, Xu Yong completed his revenge in Chicago with a strong 43-point rebound.

"Xu has fulfilled what he said two years ago, and it is overdone, two years ago the Celtics eliminated his Bulls team 4-2, and now he has not only won back all the losses, but also won one more game, and he is the new king."

And with the comments of the "KBforever" user on social media, Xu Yong's name of "Chicago King" was widely circulated.
