NBA villain

Chapter 758
"The Celtics are full of talent."

While Yang Di lamented the strength of the Celtics, the Celtics also regarded the Warriors as their biggest enemy since the start of the game.

"The Warriors are the defending champions, and we must fight them with 120 percent fighting spirit." Head coach Doug Rivers has been a little smug recently. The Celtics have won 9 consecutive victories, and he has become the person with the greatest credit , In fact, there is no change in tactics from last season, nothing more than the addition of a Paul Gasol low-post singles.

Jane La Rondo couldn't help curling her lips, and turned her head to look at the field.

The two sides debuted, Ben Wallace and Tyson Chandler stood in the middle circle.

After staying in the Bulls for a year last year, Ben Wallace's help to the team's defensive end is clearly visible. The Pistons lost their big book and gradually fell out of the ranks of the top teams.

Ben Wallace is 33 years old this year, but his physical condition is still very good. He played 77 games for the Bulls last season and averaged 35 points, 6.4 rebounds, 10.7 steals and 1.4 blocks in 2.0 minutes per game. One of the inside players who can defend Yang Di best in the league.

At the same time, Pau Gasol is one of the [-]th players in Yang Di's league who hates defense the most. The two formed a pair. Yang Di couldn't help feeling that the Celtics came prepared.

The Celtics wore classic green jerseys, while the Warriors wore white jerseys.

The audience shouted hoarsely.

"duo~"

A whistle blows and Tyson Chandler and Ben Wallace jump into the air.

Chandler didn't pay much attention to Ben Wallace at the beginning. How capable does he think this 33-year-old veteran is?As a result, the jump ball gave him a blow to the head. Ben Wallace touched the basketball more than half of his palm first, and lost to the opponent with a sure jump ball.

"That's amazing!" Chandler really didn't expect Wallace to jump so high.

The Celtics fans cheered, and the Celtics mastered the first wave of offense.

Rondo tightened the headband on his head, and the two arms as big as aliens skillfully controlled the ball under his crotch, pulled away from the same position as Baron Davis, and dribbled forward for half the court.

Yang Di stood in the center, and the Warriors stood scattered, man-to-man defense.

Rondo held the ball for two seconds at the top of the arc and called Pau Gasol to come out for a pick-and-roll.

There was surprise in Byron's eyes. This unremarkable guy was so arrogant that he asked the core players in his team to pick and roll?

What made him even more unexpected was that Pau Gasol naturally obeyed Rondo's command, stood still on the three-point line, lowered his hands, and made a standard pick-and-roll posture.

Rondo's ball control is excellent, and his breakthrough also has his own rhythm. Following Pau Gasol's pick-and-roll light touch, he passed Baron Davis' defense.

"Fill in!"

Without Byron making a sound, Yang Di had already moved over and ran into Rondo who was facing him head-on.

Yang Di opened his arms to defend, and Rondo unhurriedly stretched to the three-point line. Yang Di didn't know much about this player. He thought that such a guard must not be able to shoot. .

Rondo tossed it casually and transferred to Pau Gasol.

The important Pau Gasol took the ball with his back, turned around and pushed towards the basket, then stretched out his big arms and hooked the ball high.

The speed of the movement was not fast, but neither Byron nor Yang Di could interfere with their pounces.

"Shh!"

The basketball went into the net, 2-0, and the Celtics took the lead.

Baron Davis patted himself on the chest, indicating that he was responsible for the ball, and then he was about to pass Yang Di's baseline serve, and advanced to the frontcourt without haste.

With crotch dribble and back dribble, Baron Davis controlled the basketball at the top of the arc and looked up at Jane Rondo. beside.

Yang Di came out and made a pick and roll for Baron Davis.

Byron leaned over to speed up, broke through to the basket, with a big beard fluttering, chic and unrestrained.

Ben Wallace at the basket immediately moved over, and Byron had an excellent view of the overall situation. He raised his hand and made a cross pass to the open Tyson Chandler.

But he distributed the ball more vigorously, and Chandler didn't grasp it firmly. Big Ben easily turned around and got stuck on Tyson Chandler, and continued to put pressure on him.

Paul Pierce double-teamed just right, pulled out his hand, and broke the ball in Chandler's hand.

Yang Di and others quickly retreated to the defense. The Celtics had a chance to break fast, but the defensive coach Rivers yelled "slow down" from the sidelines. Pierce controlled the rhythm and slowly advanced through the half.

Paul Pierce and Pau Gasol form a "double Paul" lineup, and the two perform pick-and-roll outside.

The Warriors didn't switch defenses, and Pierce was about to make an emergency stop in the middle distance. Yang Di felt that he had time to interfere, and stretched out his hand to interfere.

"Clang~"

The basketball came out of the frame, Chandler swiped in the direction of his teammates, and Ray Allen advanced with the ball.

Yang Di played low post singles, and Ben Wallace concentrated on his back defense. No matter how Yang Di's shoulders shook, he was unmoved.

"boom!"

Yang Di slammed into Da Ben's body with his back, and Da Ben was like a diamond rock, under Yang Di's powerful impact, he remained motionless.

The fans were amazed. There are few players in the league who can stand up to Yang Di one-on-one. For this alone, the Celtics' deal for Ben Wallace is very worthwhile.

Yang Di feels Ben Wallace's defensive strength. The strength of the two is about equal, and in terms of strength, even if they are older, they will not be eliminated much.

Yang Di pulled the ball out, turned around, and started attacking face-to-face.

He dribbled the ball under the crotch twice in a row, pretending to make a breakthrough in the middle, the whole person stopped suddenly, stepped on the ground with both feet, bent his knees and burst into strength, and bounced to shoot.

"Shh!"

Under Daben's blindfold defense, Yang Di hit a mid-range jumper.

For him, the mid-range shot is the easiest way to score. If he is in the playoffs, he will dig in, but in the regular season, he usually tries to find a touch.

It seems that the hand feels pretty good today.

The Celtics attacked, Pietrus ran to the top of the arc to receive the ball, and then passed it to Pau Gasol at the elbow. Pau Gasol turned and faced Yang Di who was defending him.

He arched his back twice, didn't move, and set a hand-off pass screen for Paul Pierce.

Paul Pierce received the ball, pretended to break through, and suddenly took a big step to the left, taking a step away from Danny Granger, almost stepping on the three-point line, and shot a large two-pointer.

"Shh!"

It is also almost hollow into the network.

Granger looked up at the scoring screen. He felt that his reaction was very quick, but Pierce's movements were too coherent, and the speed was not slow at all.

4 to 2, just a few rounds, but the Celtics have completely shown a different state from last season. In terms of team strength, it is also enough to wrestle with the Warriors. The two sides have gradually entered the anxious stage of the game.
