Chapter 287 A Die With Dignity
"The veterans of the Celtics are ready to fight!"

Due to the huge lead in the first quarter, after the start of the second quarter, the king's side, Reggie - Toyes sent a full bench, while the Celtics did the opposite, except Garnett After the start of the second quarter, the other main players all appeared on the stage.

Physical fitness has always been the biggest factor limiting the Celtics. Whether it is the Eastern Conference finals against the Magic or the finals against the Kings, due to physical limitations, the Celtics' performance in the fourth quarter always does not allow People are relieved, and Celtics head coach Doug Rivers racked his brains to solve this problem, but there is no way, a group of veterans around 35 years old, unless they are only allowed to play 20 in a game. Minutes, otherwise poor physical fitness will always accompany them and become a stumbling block on their way forward.

In order for this group of veterans to have enough physical fitness to deal with their opponents in the crucial fourth quarter, in the previous games, Doug Rivers would not miss any chance to let them rest, Especially at the beginning of the second quarter, during this period of time when rotation players play, Doug Rivers will basically not let any of the main players play at this time, but in today's game, apart from going to In the restricted Garnett, the Celtics dispatched almost all of their main players at the beginning of the second quarter. It can also be seen from this that the situation the Celtics are now facing It's tough.

"Reggie, do we want to make a substitution?" Assistant coach Tyrone Corbin, who was standing next to Reggie Troyce, subconsciously asked the Celtics players who were walking onto the field one after another not far away. The head coach Reggie Toyce said that the main lineup needs the main force to deal with the substitute players.

"No, they can't last long with this style of play. Besides, our lead is so big now, let them spend a while on the court." After Reggie Toyes rejected the assistant's suggestion with a smile , and looked at Doc Rivers not far away.

So far in the game, the two teams have no cards to use. Similarly, both sides are very clear about the reality of their opponents. The Kings and the Celtics are now like two teams. Like a naked man, there are no secrets anymore.

Reggie Toyce, who has become one of the "famous coaches", naturally has a very thorough view of the reality and shortcomings of the Celtics. The king is young and inexperienced, but he is physically fit and dares to fight hard. The Celtics are just the opposite. They are seasoned, calm, and experienced, but their physical fitness is obviously not enough, especially the Big Three and the group of veterans on the bench who hug their thighs and mix rings. Therefore, the more time they played in the first half, the more likely and faster they are to crash in the second half.

Therefore, Reggie Toyce also disapproves of the Celtics' adjustment, which is almost quenching thirst by drinking poison, and even holds the mentality of watching the excitement.

In Reggie Toyes's view, even if the Celtics' main players have an advantage when facing the Kings' rotation lineup and hit a climax of chasing points, there is no way to completely reverse the score gap between the two sides. Yes, the 16-point difference is not a joke. Doug Rivers' current adjustment is at best choosing the former between slow death and direct death.

It was not bad as Reggie Toyes expected. Although the re-appearing main lineup played an absolute advantage in front of the king's substitute lineup and kept narrowing the difference between the two sides, Doug standing on the sidelines -Rivers, still like an ant on a hot pot, paced back and forth on the sidelines and glanced at the Kings' bench from time to time, wondering if the Kings' main lineup would debut immediately.

And when Doug Rivers glanced at Yan Hua who was sitting on the sidelines, seeing Yan Hua without any emotional fluctuations on his face, Doug Rivers, who was already uneasy in his heart, became even more uneasy.

Doug Rivers is not quite sure whether it is because of his "special" care for Yan Hua in the previous games that Yan Hua broke through under the pressure and became stronger, but one thing is For sure, that is Yan Hua in the first quarter. He is the most powerful insider that Doc Rivers has ever seen. Compared with Kevin Garnett under his command, he is the most powerful in the new millennium. The two insiders, Shaq O'Neal and Tim Duncan, and even Yan Hua's template Hakeem Olajuwon are stronger.

And in the face of this kind of strength that is powerful enough to crush everything, Doug Rivers really has nothing to do. If the strength is similar, and he can still win by tactics and tricks, then in the face of absolute strength , any tactics and intrigues will be futile in the end.

Although the ending could be predicted, Doug Rivers didn't want to lose, and the Celtics didn't want to lose, so Doug Rivers made a desperate effort at the beginning of the second quarter. With the exception of all the main players except Garnett, they chased points at all costs, hoping to reduce the point difference between the two sides to 10 points or even less than 5 points before the end of the first half. Only in this way, Kyle Only the special people can leave a glimmer of hope of victory.

As for the possible consequences, Doug Rivers will not think about it. In the face of direct death and chronic death, most people will choose the latter, not to mention the Celtics. For a while, the veterans on the Megatron side said that even if they died, they should die with dignity.

"Hurry up, hurry up..." As the game progressed, Doc Rivers, who had been pacing back and forth on the sidelines due to excessive worry, after watching the two sides only have 10 points left , and became more and more excited. Once the point difference between the two sides was reduced to single digits, the situation on the court was completely different.

"Reggie Troyce can really hold his breath!" When Ray Allen hit a jumper, the difference between the two sides was reduced to only 8 points, but Reggie Troyce, the head coach of the Kings, After remaining indifferent, Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines commentary felt a little admiration for Reggie Toyce's concentration. "Phil Jackson on par.
