Chapter 294: The Cardinal Comes to the Scene? Then beat me to death! Hit until they disband!
Pitino isn't a third-rate manager, nor is he the type of scum who eats on the same food.
On the contrary, he is definitely a first-class coach in the NCAA, he has won the championship of the crazy three, led the team to the final four many times, and he has a lot of goods in his stomach.
But his problem is that his achievements have all been achieved in the NCAA, and in the NBA, these young players don't eat his set!
Neither Walker nor Pierce gave him much face, nor were they very willing to follow his suit.
At the end of the day, the team doesn't have a winning culture, and it doesn't have the momentum to win.
After the worst point margin in history in the first game, Pitino called a player meeting.
He also wants face, he also knows what shame is, and playing like this in the first game is really beyond his bottom line and acceptance.
The other party can't stand the dish, so let the opposite coach come over and spray the team angrily?
This kind of unbelievable thing happened to Pitino, he felt that if he didn't work hard and mentioned the strength of the team, then his reputation would be almost ruined here, and he would have to give a complete explanation!
It has to change!
Pitino set a meeting time for the team at 4 p.m. on the day of the second game, and his plan was to have an hour-long meeting to boost the team's morale and morale, and then the whole team headed straight to the arena.
But when he arrived in the conference room 10 minutes early, he couldn't help frowning.
Not a single one.
Not a single one came early!
This broken team is outrageous!
Pitino glanced at his watch with some anxiety, then sat there and waited.
At 4 o'clock, Pierce walked into the conference room with several Celtic role players, and when they saw Pitino, they nodded.
Then by 4:10, most of the Celtics players arrived.
Or rather, there were only two people left who didn't come.
Antoine Walker and Anderson.
Waited until 4:20 and the two guys hadn't shown up yet.
Pitino glanced at his watch impatiently and said coldly: "Who knows where those two guys went?" ”
Adrian Griffin raised his hand and said, "The two of them were playing NBA live when I came down, saying they would come down after that game. ”
"Did you tell them the time?"
"Yes, I said we're going to be late."
"Then why don't you tell them to come down quickly, don't tell them that everyone is waiting for them?" Pitino's tone was getting worse and worse.
"I saw that they were already in the fourth quarter and it was over in 20 minutes at most, so ......"
Griffin was only halfway through his sentence when he was interrupted by Pitino, "So you think it's okay to be more than 20 minutes late, do you?" ”
Griffin stopped talking, but his expression, apparently telling everyone, was what it was.
Pitino nodded, didn't speak again, but just stood up, and after exhaling deeply, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked the big blackboard in front of him!
“FUXX! You don't think of me as a head coach, do you, you don't feel ashamed to lose by more than 50 points, do you? You don't think it's okay to be 30 minutes late for a meeting, right? You all think you're super geniuses, and you don't think winning or losing will affect your money, right? ”
Pitino gasped and looked at everyone in front of him: "Then continue to lose, lose until there are no pants left, and lose until you become a joke in the whole league!" FUXX! ”
Pitino was unleashing his anger there, when the door to the conference room suddenly opened, and a lazy Anderson and Walker walked in, and Walker let out a silly smile as soon as he entered: "Coach, I'm late, sorry." ”
"Do you look like you're a little sorry for stepping on a horse?" Pitino pointed at Walker's nose and scolded, "Are you really sorry? Do you really care if you win or lose? Do you think I don't know anything? You idiot who only knows how to consume fat, you don't deserve to be a professional footballer at all! ”
was scolded by Pitino like this, Walker's face immediately fell, he glared at Pitino and said: "I'll give you 5 seconds, apologize to me, otherwise I promise that your end will be worse than Callesimo!" ”
PJ Callesimo is also a joke in the league in the past two years, he is the head coach of the Warriors, and he was choked by Spreville's neck and shook constantly because of a conflict with Sprewell in training! According to people at the scene, Callesimo really almost hung up! He was really choked by Sprewell.
After being put down by Sprewell, poor Callesimo lay on the floor for a few minutes without moving, and several Warriors players thought he was really killed by Sprewell.
"Worse than Callesimo?" Pitino laughed angrily at Walker, and he even stretched his neck and said, "Come on!" Let me see what you're up to! Show me how miserable you can make me! Come on! You fat man! Come, come to my neck! Come! If you don't kill me today, you won't get out of this door! ”
Walker looked at Pitino's crazy appearance, swallowed his saliva, and then scolded: "Neurotic! Lao Tzu won't go crazy with you! ”
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave directly.
"Stop!" Pitino scolded: "Lao Tzu held a meeting today, originally to raise the morale of you bastards, help you find your fig leaf, and make your losses less miserable!" But now, I don't think it matters! ”
"The important thing now is that you, the next game, are your last chance! If you're still hanging like that tonight, and you're still playing so casually and lazily, then next season, you definitely won't be staying with the Celtics! I'll get you out! I'm going to get you out!" ”
"We'll see who's being driven away." Walker snorted coldly, turned and left the conference room.
"Coach, then we're not going to have a meeting?" After a full minute of silence at the scene, Anderson, who had come in with Walker but not gone out with him, plucked up the courage to ask.
"What do you say?" Pitino raised his head, looked at Anderson and said, "Get back to your room!" ”
"For you, I only have one last sentence to say: you are professional players, you must have the bottom line and dignity of professional players! If a person doesn't even want dignity, then no matter how much money he earns, he is a waste! He was wasting the gift God had given him! He will definitely go to Satan when he dies! ”
After Pitino finished speaking, he waved his hand towards the door, and the Celtic players stood up one after another, walked out of the door.
Pitino closed his eyes, he didn't want to look anymore.
His heart was so tired that he even began to doubt himself.
Why are you here, and why are you building such a terrible team?
Is that really what you do?
"Coach." A voice came suddenly, and Pitino opened his eyes to see the last player standing in the room, Paul Pearce.
"I want to win, I want to bring victory to the team, and although as an Angeleno, I hated Bostonians from the bottom of my bones for the first 20 years of my life, but now I am proud to be a Celtic! I'll play hard! ”
After Pierce finished speaking, he nodded at Pitino and turned and walked out of the conference room.
Pierce's statement and support can be regarded as giving Pitino the last bit of dignity and comfort.
At the very least, the team he brought out is not so hopeless!
Isn't there another one who wants to win?
But just one Pierce wants to win, and obviously it's a bit insufficient.
At the very least, it is completely not enough to face a top powerhouse in history like the Pacers!
This night, the Celtics are a little bit better than before.
They didn't lose by more than 50 points tonight, they only lost by 35 points tonight.
Although the game still lost its suspense from the beginning, although the Celtics were still beaten violently from beginning to end, although they still did not have any resistance, but more or less, there was a little improvement.
Of course, such a little progress is really insignificant and not worth mentioning at all.
Such a little improvement is just that Bird did not go crazy anymore and did not spray at the Celtics bench again.
Well, it's also possible that it's not because the Celtics have improved, but after the last game, the league punished Bird with an additional 30,000 US dollars, which made this guy feel painful.
But after two home games with huge victories, this round is considered by everyone to be the most disparity in NBA history, and there is no suspense at all, and no one thinks that the Celtics can win even one game.
Sweeping, is their only result.
And the remaining suspense is how many points Celtic will lose in their last game.
And, this offseason, will the Celtics have any drastic changes! After all, with this kind of historical-level hanging, if there is no change in the team after that, then he is really hell!
In the third game of the series, Bird, a former Celtics' top celebrity, the former leader of the team who brought glory to the Celtics for more than 10 years, led his disciples to the North Shore Garden Arena.
This is the place where Bird has fought for more than 10 years, and it obviously has a completely different meaning for Bird.
He won 3 consecutive MVPs here, won the championship, and won countless honors.
It's just that Bird before was to bring glory and victory to this stadium, to the city and the team, but this time, he wants to bring his team to completely defeat the Celtics!
It's a really amazing feeling.
In order to let Bird feel the love of Boston fans for him, Lin Tian and the rest of the Pacers team deliberately entered the court dozens of seconds late, and they let Bird walk into the arena first, enjoying a wave of crazy cheers from Boston fans!
Although he led other teams to beat the Celtics to the point of no resistance, and even contributed to the worst loss in the team's history, but in the end, this is Larry Bird!
He is second only to Auerbach in popularity in the North Shore Garden Arena.
After the fans cheered and shouted for Bird, Lin Tian led the Pacers players into the arena, and the cheers that were overwhelming from all directions just now immediately stopped and were replaced by even louder and fiercer boos!
Well, Boston fans, the main one is a grudge!
Shout and cheer when you should shout and cheer, scold and spray people, then be merciless!
But what is more interesting tonight is that the North Shore Garden fans were booing and cheering at the Pacers personnel, but when the Celtics' own players walked into the arena after a while, the North Shore Garden suddenly fell silent!
The fans didn't cheer them on, they didn't boo them, all the fans seemed to have no eyes at all, they just stunned for a moment, and the scene fell into silence for a moment, and then the fans very tacitly ignored the Celtic players.
This team has played the last two games, and it has made them so sad!
Then, when the players on both sides began to warm up, there was suddenly a violent cheer from the scene!
The warm-up players and the coaches sitting on the sidelines looked curiously at the source of the sound, and then Bird and Pitino saw a smiling old man at the same time, slowly walking out of the aisle and sitting in a prime position in the front row.
'Cardinal' Auerbach!
A guy who has made countless contributions to the league, to the team, to Bird, and countless other people throughout the history of the Celtics.
A real label, a real big guy!
The living fossil of the current Alliance, and among the people who are still active in the Alliance today, there is no one of them of higher rank than him.
It doesn't matter if it's David Stern, Jerry West, Pat Riley, or Larry Brown, you have to be respectful when you see Auerbach!
That's status!
There are countless legends about Auerbach, and even more so of what he has created!
He is definitely an epoch-making figure!
When he saw Auerbach coming, Bird immediately trotted all the way in the direction of Auerbach, then stood beside him and said, "Boss." ”
"Larry, you're doing a great job." Auerbach smiled and patted Bird for permission: "You have accomplished something I never did." ”
"It's not even close to you." Bird was rarely humble: "Whether it is the management or the coaching circle, you are a peak that cannot be crossed. ”
"It's not right for you to say that." Auerbach shook his head and said, "Because I'm not just the tallest mountain, I'm the longest river!" Who else have you seen who has been in the league for 40 years? ”
"Boss, you're right!" Bird hurriedly said: "The mountains and the rivers, it's all you!" ”
"I kind of know where Larry's stinky and arrogant personality comes from." Not far from the two of them, Lin Tian heard their conversation and couldn't help but say, "The master and apprentice are carved out of one mold, and they are just as shameless!" ”
"I suspect it's a Celtic heritage!" Miller agreed with him, and nodded quickly in agreement.
On the other side, Pitino hesitated, then walked to Auerbach's side and said, "Mr. Auerbach, I'm sorry to disappoint you." ”
"You did your best, didn't you?" Auerbach said: "I heard that you almost got into a fight with that guy Antoine two days ago? ”
Pitino nodded helplessly and said: "I didn't do well enough, I didn't build the culture that the team should have. ”
"You're really bad at work, and the Celtics have had their bottom moments in team history, and there's no shame in that! Sometimes in order to win, you have to lose first! All for the greater good! But you, the Celtics, are really the worst team I've ever seen! ”
"No motivation, no fighting spirit, getting by, only thinking about the stats and the indulgence after the game, this team is terrible."
"But I have to say, the almost fight with Antoine was good, it's an opportunity, it's an opportunity to regain the team's vitality, and if you do it well, you can lift the morale of the players and play a dozen with the Pacers, but you still lost by almost 40 points in the second game."
"It sucks."
Auerbach's tone was so flat that I couldn't hear the joy and anger in it.
But Pitino felt like his back was soaked with sweat.
Auerbach is so scary!
"Seriously, if I were the president of the team, the first thing I would do would have to be to get you out of class." Auerbach continued: "But I'm not, I'm just an advisor, so I can only help the team in my own way. ”
"That's what I'm here for, I hope my presence can help you, let you regain your morale, not to mention winning, but even if it is not so ugly to lose! If you lose, you have to export our style and momentum, do you know what I mean? ”
In the face of Auerbach, Pitino was much more well-behaved than Bird, and he kept nodding his head when he listened to Auerbach's reprimands.
He didn't dare to say a word, because he knew very well that although the current Celtics were fully implementing the plan of 'going to Auerbach' and were making the team have less and less things related to Auerbach, if Auerbach was determined to get rid of someone on the team, it would definitely be possible!
It doesn't matter if the person is a manager or a player.
Pitino stood next to Auerbach, nodding his head and agreeing like a student listening to a teacher's lecture, and then after a full 2-3 minutes, the guy finally turned around and returned to the bench.
"I'm teaching your opponent in front of you, you won't be angry, Larry." As soon as Pitino left, Auerbach looked back at Bird with a smile on his face.
"Old green tea." Lin Tian, who had been eavesdropping on the side, said to Miller: "Has this old man always been such a?" ”
"Almost." Miller nodded, "But everybody in Boston eats this!" That's his charm. ”
Pitino returned to the team's bench, he clapped his hands vigorously, called everyone in front of him, and after gathering all the players, Pitino said: "Auerbach is here, I think you all saw it!" Tonight, we can lose, we can be educated by the Pacers. ”
"But tonight we must not lose so badly like the previous two days, and lose so without resistance! Got it? We have to show our talent, our attitude and our tough side! This is what we have to do as a Celtic! It's something you have to do as a player! ”
Pitino delivered a speech that he felt was full of passion, fighting spirit, and could make people's blood burn, but after his speech, the response of the Celtic players was scattered, obviously, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, this team is rotten to the bone, relying on one or two slogans and shouts to wake them up, obviously impossible!
In particular, when Pitino said that he could disband and let the players continue to warm up, Walker also said to Anderson next to him with great disdain: "What do I say, he doesn't dare to ban me at all!" Don't dare let me sit on the bench at all! ”
"He needs me, he has to beg me to help him play and help! He didn't want to lose his job, so he had to make Uncle Antoine happy! ”
"Antoine, you're not right." Pierce heard Walker's words next to him, frowned and said: "The coach wants to give you a chance, our first two games are indeed too ugly, tonight in the North Shore Garden, and Mr. Auerbach to watch, we ...... no matter what"
"Paul, when did you become the coach's dogleg? Isn't Auerbach just an old man who is about to go to the ground? What are you afraid of him for? I'm telling you, I'm not afraid of him at all, he won't come or not, and my style of play won't change! I'll just fight like this, if he is really capable, he will trade me away! Does he think I'd love to stay in this part of Boston? ”
On the Pacers' side, Lin Tian saw Bird finally come back from Auerbach's side, and said with a smile: "How about it, do you want to show mercy to your subordinates tonight, do you want to let them go?" ”
"Let them go? Why? The corners of Bird's mouth grinned: "Fight to the death!" It's still the same sentence, beat me to death! ”
"Our goal tonight is to break up the Celtics! Such a team does not deserve to be called Celtic at all! Beat their management to despair, to rebuild immediately, to drive out all of them! See what I mean? ”
"Isn't that hand-to-hand yet?" Lin Tian said confidently: "We can't do anything else, this kind of thing that beats people to death, it's not a minute!" ”
Bird's words can be regarded as a complete end to the Celtics' playoff journey.
He wants to let his former parent team lose all the bottoms left!
He's going to strip them all of their bottoms clean and throw them straight to Times Square in New York at eight o'clock on Saturday night!
Lose face? If this team doesn't rebuild, then there will be more times of disgrace in the future! Anyway, it's all a shame, it's better to take off your bottoms yourself!
In a few minutes, the game begins!
Big Ben once again defeated the opponent in the jump ball, after Lin Tian got the ball, after patting twice on the spot, he suddenly made a long pass from a long distance, and hoisted the ball directly to the Celtics' basket, Carter hugged the basketball, and pulled it up with both hands!
As for Griffin, who defended Carter?
He was still at the 3-point line, and he didn't react at all, and he didn't expect Carter to suddenly accelerate to the basket.
Then it was Anderson who casually dribbled to the frontcourt, and then called a cover, he dribbled two steps, and just pulled up against the defense, forcing a 2-point shot!
"Boom!"
This kind of casual and forcible shot against people, the hit rate can be imagined, and it will definitely not be high!
The basketball hit the neck of the basket, Webb jumped up and slapped the basketball directly outside the 3-point line, and then Christie took the ball and ran towards the front court again, and then he suddenly made a pass to the ground, and the basketball went directly through half the court to the half-court hinterland of the Celtics, Lin Tian took the basketball and started to glide directly.
"Boom!"
After a bang, the Pacers scored 2 more points! And the Celtics' defense is still very sloppy, not worth mentioning at all! Of course, some of them retreated, but first, there was no one to follow Lin Tian, second, no one interfered with Christie's advancement, and third, no one guarded the basket.
Textbooks are generally only retreated, and textbooks are generally negative textbooks.
The form of the Celtics in the first two rounds has spoken for itself.
Auerbach's arrival did not arouse their fighting spirit and blood at all, they still went their own way, and they did what they wanted.
Auerbach in the stands, eyes narrowed.
None of these little cubs can get into Auerbach's eyes!
In the first quarter of the game, the scores of the two sides were still quickly pulled apart.
29:15!
Then in the second quarter of the game, the state of the Celtics still did not change in the slightest, and almost all of the team highlighted an indifference and love when they were playing, as if they were afraid of delaying the game, for fear that the game would take longer because it became anxious.
They've already booked their tickets for a vacation! The most important thing is to finish the game quickly and leave work early.
Maybe in the entire Celtics, only Pierce is playing hard, his shot selection is not bad, if his teammates have the opportunity, he will still pass the ball, even if the defensive end is bad, even if his teammates are not very defensive, but he will do his best to defend and has not relaxed.
This is the only guy on the Celtics team who is barely worthy of praise so far.
But it's a pity that Pierce is not a good defender in the first place, his defensive ability is just like that, coupled with the complete lack of cooperation from his teammates, his efforts look more like a joke.
60:33!
By the end of the first half, the Pacers had once again led by 27 points!
This game is another massacre without suspense!
And by this point in the game, Celtics fans were no longer booing the Pacers.
Waste of effort!
They put all their energy into booing the Celtics players! They are frantically venting their dissatisfaction, they are dissatisfied with the team's mental outlook!
It's still the same sentence, you can dish, but the attitude can't be so bad!
Boston's North Shore Garden Square has been completely captured!
Even so, when the players left the tunnel at halftime, Walker still looked indifferent, laughing and joking with Anderson next to him, discussing where to go on vacation in the summer and where to go in style.
I really don't care about the team at all.
"Incorrigible." Auerbach looked at the team's departing figure and shook his head sadly.
Is this the lineup that the team has assembled after putting itself in the air?
What a shame!
Once both players had finished exiting, Auerbach suddenly stood up from his position and walked in the direction of the players' tunnel.
In the North Shore Gardens, no one will stop him from going anywhere.
In the locker room of the Celtics, Pitino was already a little overwhelmed at this moment, he really didn't expect that the team he led could be so scattered, and the discipline and sense of honor could be so poor!
He has even moved his heart to resign directly after tonight's game.
If this team continues like this, it is not a question of how well he performs, but whether he can walk down from this position alive.
Sooner or later, I was.
"At the end of tonight's game, I invite everyone to go to the 'hot' club for a good drink, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome, let's use an indulgence, a complete indulgence, to forget the unhappiness of losing! Whoever is going tonight, come to me now to sign up! ”
As soon as Walker sat down in his place, he was already calling his friends for tonight's post-game show.
"Antoine! We haven't lost yet! What do you mean? How can there be a reason to start celebrating before the game is over! Pierce stood up, stood across from Walker and said, "If you don't want to play, you can go to your drinking party right now to celebrate, the team doesn't need you!" ”
"Who do you think you are? Who do you think you're talking to? Walker was also a violent temper, and was scolded by Pierce in public, stood up directly from the bench, pushed Pierce and said, "Don't forget who is the boss!" If you dare to speak to me like that, I promise you won't be on this team next season! I promise you'll fuck off! ”
"Smack!"
Pierce suddenly punched out and hit Walker in the face, and he scolded: "People like you don't deserve to be a professional player at all!" You're a piece of trash! Lao Tzu wants to win! Lao Tzu wants to play well! ”
"Smack!"
Then Pierce threw another punch, again in Walker's face: "The team doesn't need someone like you!" No, you don't! ”
After two punches, Walker looked confused, sat on the bench in disbelief and looked in front of him, Walker, who has always dominated the team, was actually frightened by Pierce's sudden outburst, he sat there motionless, and did not dare to fight back at all.
"In the second half, the team doesn't need you! You can pack up and fuck off! "Pierce finally woke up at this moment! The self-confidence and unhesitating leadership temperament in his body awakened: "There are everyone else, if you want to get out, you can get out together!" ”
"We suck! We're not strong! We're no match for the Pacers! However, the team doesn't need this kind of bastard who wants to hang out before the game is over, and the team doesn't need all the other idiots who don't want to win, just want to enjoy and make money! ”
"There are 29 teams in the league, you can go anywhere, but with the Celtics, no!"
Walker finally relented at this point, he stood up suddenly, looked at Pierce, but did not move: "Who do you think you are?" Who do you think is the boss of this team? ”
"Me! I'm the boss of this team! Pierce pushed Walker back into his chair again: "It's Paul Pearce, I'm an Angelenite, but now, I'm proud to be a Celtic!" ”
After Pierce finished speaking, he stopped looking at Walker, but looked back at everyone.
"In the second half of the game, if you want to play, you can continue with me if you are not afraid of losing face! We can't win, I know we can't win, but we can make it hard for the Pacers to win! I'm confident to let them peel off their skin tonight! Kindly, with me in the second half! ”
Auerbach dropped his hand that had been about to push open the locker room door, turned and returned the same way down the players' tunnel, whistling along the way, clearly in a good mood.
In the second half of the game, Bird noticed for the first time that Walker failed to start, and then he couldn't find Walker on the Celtics bench, this guy didn't show up directly, watching Pierce stand in the middle of everyone, slapping heavily to encourage his teammates, although he was not there, but Bird also guessed what happened.
This must be a mutiny.
Then Bird turned his head again, and saw Auerbach, who was now looking at Pierce with admiration, and confirmed his conjecture.
It seems that Pierce confirmed himself as the leader of the Celtic team at halftime!
At least judging by the spirit of the players in the second half, it is clear that the team is different.
Bird also leaned back in his chair easily, and was still very happy to see that his parent team, which has deep feelings, seemed to be on the right track again.
In the first attack of the second half, Pierce once again reached for the ball in the low post, shook off Christie with a crossover step after getting the ball, and then pulled up a direct mid-range jumper.
After the goal, Pierce yelled and ran quickly towards the backcourt, ready to defend, and the pace of the other players of the Celtics team also increased significantly, their defense was more active, and it was obvious that they were no longer coping, they were obviously strong on the defensive end!
That's the effect......
Lin Tian and Webber cooperated with each other in a high position, Webber was completely emptied, and no one guarded him at all, Lin Tian passed the ball to Webber, and the two of them immediately turned around to chase Weber, and Lin Tian was missed again.
When Webber returned the basketball to Lin Tian with another behind-the-back pass, no matter how much the Celtics' enthusiasm in the second half was improved, it was too late, they could only watch Lin Tian raise his hand to shoot and hit it easily!
"Paul, you have to shout!" After scoring the goal, Lin Tian looked at Pierce, who was a little annoyed, and couldn't help but say, "Roar loudly!" You can even use a bit of swearing! Encouragement, yelling, reminders, you can do it! Only then can a true leader be! ”
Pierce was stunned for a moment, then nodded at Lin Tian, then clapped his hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay!" Very well defended! Very well defended! In the next round, let's communicate in a timely manner! Let's shout more when we are covering, and remind your teammates! This one, let's fight back! ”
"Yes!"
The spirit of the Celtics is finally up!
The Celtics were led by Pierce, and they played better and better in the second half, playing more and more decently, and from time to time they were able to play some really beautiful offensive rounds!
Even in the middle of the third quarter, the Celtics defended the Pacers for a 24-second break!
After this successful defense, Pierce raised his arms and shouted excitedly!
"Well done! Well done! We can! We can! Show it to everyone, we can! ”
The North Shore Garden fans looked at the passionate Pierce on the pitch, watching him still not give up, still cheering up the team's morale and form, allowing his teammates to defend and run, and let them cooperate more and continue to work hard.
The North Shore Garden Plaza, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly burst into cheers again under the leadership of whom.
"Paul! MVP! ”
"Paul! MVP! ”
"Paul! MVP! ”
The fans gave their highest shouts to Pierce and to the team that disappointed them immensely.
Although the team is still behind by a large score, and although the team is still unable to escape the fate of being swept tonight, the fans are obviously very satisfied!
They see what they want to see!
As for the loss to the 75-win Pacers, is it strange?
It's normal to lose!
It would be better if you can lose like tonight and lose without losing people!
Fans, sometimes it's really easy to get satisfied!
The smile on Auerbach's face became more and more obvious.
He knows that a new culture has begun to emerge, and although tonight is destined to be a heavy defeat, the team's new system has been determined, and the team will start a new round of rebuilding with Pierce at the core!
Maybe the team will still struggle to do anything in the next 1-2 years, and there is a good chance that they will still linger in the lottery, but Pierce is very satisfied with Auerbach's performance today.
There will always be a day of revival in this team!
I just don't know, can I wait until that day?
With the cheers and shouts of the fans, the score gap between the two sides is getting wider and wider, and the Pacers are leading more and more.
Yes, the more ahead, the more! After all, there is a huge strength gap between the Pacers and the Celtics, and the Celtics are missing Walker, so they actually only have Pierce as a reliable offensive point now, and the Pacers are very good at dealing with this kind of team!
In addition, the players of the Pacers have not forgotten Bird's orders.
Fight to the death, beat this Celtic to the waste, and beat it in the direction of the scattered!
In this case, although the Pacers can't play with people so frustrated with a 30-point lead, they really haven't relaxed too much.
To put it simply, I didn't fight to death, and I didn't release too much water.
85:53!
By the end of the quarter, the Pacers' lead had reached 32 points, and they were still winning the quarter, but they only won by 5 points!
Facing the Celtics, who did not relax, the Celtics only lost by 5 points in a single quarter, and let the Pacers not score 30 points in a single quarter, which was the first time in their series!
Enough is enough! Enough to make Boston fans happy!
In the fourth quarter, neither side played the main game, and the game officially entered garbage time, but the Celtics' role players did not relax in the fourth quarter, and they were still showing their attitude.
This section, they won points!
It was the only quarter in 3 playoff games where they won 12 quarters!
Although it was garbage time, although they only won the Pacers by 8 points, the Celtics did show their attitude in the second half of Game 3.
