Chapter 453 Artest's attack!

Sun Zhuo was originally the strongest player in the NBA, not a super scorer who can be easily stopped, and when luck is on his side, there is really nothing you can do except sigh.

14: 0!

And there is another penalty!
The Magic team, which was defeated in the last game, played the No. 14 team in the East 15 or even 0:[-] at the Celtics' home court!It's just one more Artest.

"Have you seen it? This is my strength! Magic has returned to the ranks of winning the championship, and we are the strongest!" Artest also became excited. He felt very proud. Before the Magic was bullied by the Celtics, this With him once, the situation has completely changed, so I couldn't help showing off to the fans at the moment.

Sun Zhuo hasn't played so smoothly for a long time. He stood at the free throw line, breathed steadily, and took a long time to adjust before shooting this free throw. This seemingly insignificant point, for the Celtics who have not scored a point now , but it will be a big blow.

Swish.

Also hit the free throw.

15: 0!

"The Magic are still the Celtics' strongest opponent in the East! They are still a top team!"

The Celtics, the No. 15 in the Eastern Conference, were beaten 0:[-], and now they have to admit that the Magic is amazing. Artest released Sun Zhuo, so that Sun Zhuo didn't have to worry about defense and could concentrate on offense. , Sun Zhuo will play more smoothly.

The Celtics are already in a hurry, and if they don't score, they probably don't even have the idea of ​​playing.

This time, Paul Pierce resolutely rushed to the basket. Sun Zhuo didn't want to give Pierce a 2+1 chance.

Pierce's free throw is good, but at this moment, he may not be able to make a shot.

Sun Zhuo gave Artest a look, and Artest immediately understood what Sun Zhuo wanted him to do. In fact, even if Sun Zhuo didn't explain, Artest would do the same, making trouble for the opponent and exerting mental pressure. The pressure is what Artest is best at.

Pierce stood at the free throw line, and all the audience were waiting for Pierce to contribute the first point to the Celtics. At this time, Artest walked over leisurely and said lightly: "You know you made a free throw. What are the consequences of not scoring, the score will become 18:0, and then it will be 20:0."

Pierce didn't want to ignore Artest, but this sentence really brought him pressure. He knew that Artest who said this was not capable of doing it, but Sun Zhuo would definitely do it.

"That guy Sun will seize this opportunity and trample us hard. Let alone 20:0, if he has the opportunity to create 30:0, he will do it mercilessly! I must make a penalty."

Paul Pierce took a deep breath, took the ball from the referee, and did not rush to take the shot, but breathed steadily and adjusted his state, just like the ball that Sun Zhuo scored before.

"Shh, be quiet! Paul needs to be quiet now!" A fan in the auditorium gestured to silence the people around him, and the entire arena became silent in an instant.

This is also a great advantage for home players, that is, when making free throws, the scene will give him a very quiet environment to prevent him from being distracted. Players with noisy voices and generally bad mentality are easily affected.

In this extremely quiet atmosphere, Pierce dribbled the ball, dribbled the ball again, and dribbled the ball again.

Then, Pierce finally picked up the ball with both hands and made a shooting posture, but still didn't rush to shoot, but aimed at the basket.

Finally, at the moment when Pierce was about to make a shot, the referee blew his whistle before the ball was thrown.

"Free throw overtime!"

"Wow ha ha ha ha... Paul Pierce took more than 10 seconds to free throw, ha ha ha, he made such a low-level mistake!"

Seeing this, the Magic players laughed together.

Artest and Sun Zhuo couldn't help laughing, they didn't expect Pierce to give benefits.

"Damn it!" Pierce was so angry that he grabbed the basketball hard. He was also affected by Artest's trash talk. He only thought that the free throw had to be scored, but forgot to count the time.

"Keep giving up, you can't make the shot." Artest provoked Pierce again.

Pierce's mood has become very bad. This free throw suddenly felt that the 10-second free throw time was a bit rushed, which completely disrupted his usual rhythm. After three seconds, he took the shot and the basketball bounced out of the hoop!

"Opportunity!" Seeing that Pierce missed two free throws, Sun Zhuo knew that the Magic could continue to wreak havoc on the Celtics and further increase the score!
"Sun!" After the Magic grabbed the rebound, they immediately passed the ball to Sun Zhuo.

Sun Zhuo rushed to the front court quickly!

"Stop him!" Rivers wished he could run to the field and hug Sun Zhuo himself. He couldn't let him score again. If he scored again, it would be scored as 20:0. They are the number one in the Eastern Conference. Have the strongest Big Three in the league!

Sun Zhuo's speed was extremely fast, and the Celtics also used all their strength to catch up. Sun Zhuo didn't choose to shoot a two-pointer, and seemed to want to beat his opponent with a three-pointer, jumping up outside the three-point line.

When the opponent saw this, the three rushed towards Sun Zhuo!

Sun Zhuo passed the ball in the air to Artest who had just reached the three-point line.

"Let me give you bastards a deadly three-pointer! Haha!" Artest received the ball and was also thinking about shooting a three-pointer. Once he made it, the score would be 18:0!Only one goal away from 20:0!What a feat!

However, when Artest jumped up, he was fouled fiercely by Pierce who was rushing over and knocked to the ground.

After landing, Artest felt a little dizzy.

"Are you okay?" Magic's teammates all came up to see Artest.

"This damned bastard." Artest, a tough guy, naturally wouldn't have any major problems. He got up and wanted to settle accounts with Pierce, but was stopped by Sun Zhuo.

"Calm down, the game has just begun, and we still need you." Sun Zhuo held Artest with both hands, and the strong force prevented Artest from taking half a step forward.

Seeing this scene, Stan Van Gundy was also quite comforted: "Only Sun can hold down Ron. This scene is like seeing Michael Jordan stop Dennis Rodman back then. They will definitely be the championship team. "

After Rodman joined the Bulls that year, his temper has not changed. As the boss, Jordan will do the same thing on the court, let Rodman calm down, and don't do things that are harmful to the team.

Artest just affected Pierce's free throw, and now Pierce also affected Artest, causing Artest to miss the first free throw.

"You can't make a free throw, you don't have the gene for free throws." Pierce even yelled at Artest after fouling Artest maliciously.

If it weren't for Sun Zhuo's presence, Artest would really ask Pierce to have a good argument.

"Don't pay attention to him, and show him a free throw." Sun Zhuo said to Artest.

Artest will not be under as much pressure as Pierce, because the Magic is now leading, so he made the second free throw.

16: 0.

After making the free throw, Artest said proudly to Pierce: "I won't be like some idiot who can't even make a free throw. Haha, we will be 20:0 soon!"

Pierce's face turned red and he was very embarrassed. He should have hit Artest harder just now.

However, after being proud, Artest missed another free throw. After missing the free throw, what people did not expect was that Ray Allen rushed to the frontcourt first, and Garnett quickly made a long pass , to the unguarded Ray Allen!
Ray Allen moved too fast this time, which was unexpected, and he was facing an empty defense. Everyone felt that the Celtics were fine this time, and it was impossible for the Magic to keep Kyle The Walters scored, and the Magic basically gave up.

For Ray Allen, the safest way is to quickly go to the basket for a dunk or a layup, and then take two points. However, Ray Allen did not do this.

"Three-pointer?" Sun Zhuo saw Ray Allen standing on the three-point line and sincerely admired Ray Allen. He really had courage!With the team scoreless, Ray Allen dared to shoot a three-pointer!If the ball is missed, in turn, it is likely to be beaten to 20:0 by the Magic!By then, the Celtics will be in an even more embarrassing situation!
"Fuck him!" Ray Allen was expressionless. As one of the Big Three, he was not as ostentatious and tough as Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. Come out and let you see.

Swish!
A three-pointer was hit, and roaring cheers rang out from the scene!This was described by Chinese netizens as "the Celtics finally celebrate the New Year".

"Hmph, Ray Allen is kind." Sun Zhuo chuckled lightly, showing his appreciation for Ray Allen. If it were him, in the situation just now, he would probably shoot a three-pointer instead of a two-pointer.

At 16:3, the Celtics started chasing points.

No one would have thought that this small three-pointer would bring much energy to the Celtics. After scoring a goal, they would not be so concerned about losing points. Everyone's mentality improved. Pierce and Garnett, in particular, have gradually found their status, and the Celtics' defense has become more impenetrable.

Not long after, the Celtics chased it to 11:20, and the scene was not so ugly anymore.

At the end of the first quarter, the Celtics even caught up to only five points. In the end, at the end of the quarter, they were still seven points behind.

After the end of the first quarter, both sides returned to the dugouts, and both felt that the game in this quarter was very exhausting. Artest was not tired, but more unwilling: "If it wasn't for Paul Pierce, that bastard would not let me shoot a three-pointer." Hit me with the ball and we could have a 20-0 lead and by then they have absolutely no chance of catching up and we'll seal the win in the first quarter!"

Sun Zhuo said: "There are not so many ifs. Ron, the Celtics are not a third-rate team after all. Their overall strength is higher than ours. We just need to maintain the lead. The victory belongs to us."

"Sun is right, we can't kill this elephant like an ant, we need to keep calm and make no mistakes, especially you, Ron, you already fouled twice in the first quarter, It's all on Paul Pierce, when you face him, you have to exercise restraint." Stan Van Gundy could see that because of Pierce's foul, Artest now disliked Pierce, and he didn't restrain himself when defending. Pierce is an offensive kaleidoscope, and he will just use this to create a foul for Artest, which will make it easier to score.

However, in the face of coach Van Gundy's reminder, Artest turned a deaf ear: "I will definitely let him know the price of violating me."

After Sun Zhuo saw it, he suddenly felt bad: "Artest was bullied, and he will definitely not be reconciled if he doesn't return completely. If this continues, I'm afraid it won't be good. Pierce is so cunning, it won't take long It will make Artest leave the game with full fouls or early technical fouls."

In the Celtics bench, they are also discussing the issue of Artest.

"Sun is still so unsolvable. Let's not talk about him. Let's talk about Ron Artest. The arrival of this guy did not bring much improvement to the Magic, but the improvement in momentum and confidence is too great. He must be taken down." Coach Rivers almost became a humiliated coach with a serious face.

Pierce has become relaxed and said: "Hehe, it's not a difficult task. I've easily made him two fouls. It's not a problem to make him two fouls in the second quarter. If I want him to leave the game early, I have a way, too. Deehouse, together we can piss him off and do something to him that pissed him off."

Eddie House was slightly worried: "But, is it really okay to provoke him? That guy doesn't care about the rules, and he is not afraid of being suspended."

Pierce said a little displeased: "You have to be fearless on the field, how can you be afraid? Also, you have to know how to sacrifice."

Eddie House was afraid of being beaten by Artest, but Pierce wanted Artest to beat Eddie House, so Artest would be suspended.

At the beginning of the second quarter, after Artest, Pierce, Eddie House and others all played, the three began a fierce contest. Pierce and Eddie House kept prodding Artest and forcing him to get angry. .

"Oops, Artest is going to be unable to hold his hand." Sun Zhuo knew that at this time, it was useless for him as the boss to say anything, and Artest's fiery temper would definitely not be able to bear this kind of anger.

So, at the critical moment, Sun Zhuo said to Artest: "If you must do something in this game, please leave it worthwhile, and take away the person you are dealing with by the way."

Sun Zhuo's meaning is already obvious. Both Pierce and Eddie House are provoking Artest. If Artest is going to fight the small role of Eddie House, it is of little value. If he wants to deal with it, he must deal with Pierce. Since you want to fight, don't be too serious. Pierce can survive a 11-knife hit. If you are sent off for a small fight, you can continue to play and win the MVP of the game.

One minute later, Sun Zhuo saw a very familiar scene.

Pierce was knocked to the ground by an elbow.
