Double stars shine in Los Angeles

Chapter 205 Unstoppable Ask for Recommendation

In the first game of the playoffs, the Boston Celtics lost to the Los Angeles Lakers by [-] points.Although in the first half of the game, the Boston Celtics can still go head-to-head with the Los Angeles Lakers in some periods of time, but most of the time, especially in the second half of the game, the Celtics have no way at all. Compared with the Lakers, in the second half of the game, he entered the rhythm of the Lakers' game early.

Although it was only after one game, people have undoubtedly sentenced the Boston Celtics to the death penalty in advance. With their current lineup strength, there is no effective way to deal with the Lakers unless the Celtics have a few senior players in the interior. A few years younger than the pillars, this is obviously impossible.

The second game is still at the Staples Center, home of the Los Angeles Lakers.The starting lineups of both sides are the same as in the first game.

Perhaps it was the last game that made the Boston Celtics truly understand that they are not capable of being compared with the Los Angeles Lakers, so at the beginning of the game, the Boston Celtics launched a tight half-court defense, especially Paul ·Pearce and Kevin Garnett are two people who do not cherish physical strength to defend desperately.Seeing that the most qualified second elders in the team are so serious about defending, the others naturally can't be lazy, and they are doing their best to defend.

The Boston Celtics' unexpectedly tough defense caught the Los Angeles Lakers a little off guard.From the perspective of the Lakers, although the Celtics are a defensive team, as the main lineup ages, their defensive capabilities will inevitably decline.

Under this sudden change, the offense of the Los Angeles Lakers in the first quarter was greatly affected, and the shooting percentage was actually suppressed to below 30.00%. This is the first time for the Los Angeles Lakers since entering the playoffs. once.Correspondingly, the Boston Celtics' shooting percentage in the first quarter was not high, but it was much better than the Los Angeles Lakers, with a shooting percentage of 30.00%.

Thanks to this, after the end of the first quarter, the Boston Celtics led the Los Angeles Lakers at home by five points 22 to [-] in the away game.

It can be said that the game in the first quarter was very ugly. What the audience saw was the brutal physical confrontation and the sound of "bang bang" shots. There was nothing interesting in the whole quarter. The San Antonio Spurs, like the Detroit Pistons' Finals matchups, were lifeless and devoid of passion.

Are the Los Angeles Lakers afraid of such physical contact?Obviously not. From the point of view of the Lakers, there is no need for this at all. They can use an easier method to play harder.It's just that they haven't encountered such a tight defense in the previous game, which makes it difficult for them to adapt. It's just that the Lakers' adaptation time is obviously a bit long, and they haven't adapted after a whole quarter of the game.

"The Boston Celtics used a very tough defense in the first quarter, allowing the Lakers to score less than 22 points. It can be seen that their defense is very successful, but their points are not many, only [-] points. It's just points." Jeff Van Gundy said, "Although it is said that defense wins the championship, it is impossible for the Celtics to maintain such a high-intensity defense. Their main players do not have enough physical fitness to support them. This kind of defense, even the youngest team in the league can't. When the Celtics' defensive strength starts to decline, it's time for the Lakers to launch a counterattack. The truth is that I don't understand how coach Doc Rivers will carry out Such an arrangement is simply unreasonable.”

In the second quarter of the game, both sides sent substitute lineups.The Los Angeles Lakers, who had a huge advantage in the second team, quickly tied the score and overtook it.Less than halfway through the second quarter, the Boston Celtics had gone from a five-point lead to a nine-point deficit, which was equivalent to a [-]-[-] loss by the Los Angeles Lakers. Attack frenzy.

Doc Rivers had no choice but to call a timeout. After the timeout, the starting lineup that had played the entire first quarter of the game was once again deployed.Doc Rivers' arrangement for today's game is completely fishing in the wild, exchanging the team's offense for defense, but the ridiculous thing is that the team's defense is impossible to maintain normal, which eventually leads to the team's defense being anticlimactic.As for the team's offense, let alone, the team used up a lot of physical energy in defense before. In the second half of the game, due to physical reasons, the low hits continued to drop, and finally even less than 30.00% .

In the second game, the Boston Celtics can be described as "drive high and go low". In the fourth quarter, the game completely collapsed and only scored 86 points. In the last quarter, the Lakers scored 35 points in a single quarter, completely beating the dog in the water, regardless of how the Celtics felt. Anyway, the Lakers and Celtics could be regarded as blood feuds, and they are not afraid of such a little bit of resentment.

In the case of insufficient team strength, the Boston Celtics made mistakes in tactical arrangements and lost again in the away game.The Los Angeles Lakers, who sit at home, slaughtered the Boston Celtics with a bloody score of 125 to 86.

In the camp of beating the dogs in the water, Lin Fengzhe and Josh McRoberts drove the most ruthless defenders.Lin Fengzhe scored 32 points, six rebounds and three assists in the game, 25 of which came in the second half.As for Josh McRoberts, he scored a career high of [-] points and [-] rebounds in the playoffs, and all [-] points were scored in the second half.

For the Boston Celtics, Paul Pierce had 26 points, seven rebounds and four assists, Kevin Garnett had 21 points and eight rebounds, and Jason Terry had [-] points and three assists.These are the only three Celtics players who scored in double figures, and the three accounted for more than half of the team's scoring.

The Boston Celtics, who returned to home games after two days of rest, have not recovered from the huge physical exertion in the last game. Realizing that he was in a trance, he got off to a [-]-[-] start by the Los Angeles Lakers.

Although the Boston Celtics gradually improved after coach Doc Rivers yelled on the sidelines, they were too far behind before. No matter how hard the Boston Celtics tried to chase points, the point difference always remained in double digits.

The Lakers can always stand up and fight back at the critical moment of the Celtics, suppressing the momentum of the Celtics, either shooting long-range three-pointers or making fouls and hitting three-pointers, allowing the Celtics to fight back. The counterattack was frequently frustrated.From the beginning to the end, there was no lead, and the score was not even reduced to within ten.The Boston Celtics at home ushered in their third loss in the Finals.

With a big score of [-] to [-], the Boston Celtics can already be said to have missed the championship. What's worse, it is almost certain that they will watch their opponents win the O'Brien Cup at their home court and surpass the Celtics. The number of championships won by his own team is undoubtedly a torture for the Celtics who once established the league's first dynasty.

In the last game, although Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Jason Terry already knew that their team was difficult to win, they still conquered the fans with their own performance, because they showed the fans with practical actions. Show what is called veterans do not die!

Many old fans of the Celtics looked at Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett with heavy strides on the court, feeling a little bit acid in their hearts. Finals, but it is no longer the courage of the past, but the touch these players brought to them on the court is indescribable.

Even reluctantly, the Celtics still lost two games in a row at their home court and were swept out by the Lakers [-]-[-]. Watching the Lakers celebrate the team's defending championship at their home court.Although not reconciled, the Celtics did not lose. After the game, they took the initiative to thank the Lakers players, and then silently walked into the player tunnel, leaving space for the Lakers to celebrate.

"I'm really excited now. With everyone's efforts, we once again won the championship with a record of undefeated playoffs. I hope that the team can continue to defend the title next year and build another dynasty." Kobe Bryant Tebuy told the interviewing reporter.

"I have experienced retirement, and now I am standing on the court again, and I have won my first championship as I wished. For this, I am grateful to my teammates, thank them for making me a dream, and also thank my The support of my family and the support of my fans." These are the words of Yao Ming.

After a brief interview with reporters, the Lakers players also returned to the locker room to change their clothes and prepare for the next awards ceremony.There was laughter in the locker room of the Lakers, especially Kobe Bryant. The number of championship rings surpassed that of Michael Jordan, which made him very happy. In his opinion, this is the proof that he surpassed Michael Jordan. All it does is pass Michael Jordan in total points scored.

Just after Mike Brown returned to the locker room after being interviewed by reporters, he was greeted by a large bucket of Gatorade when he entered the door. As for Phil Jackson?Don't you see the guy over there tidying up?
