Chapter 118 Rebound Smell (Elementary)
After winning this game, the Heat were beaming.

He is double happiness.

In addition to defeating the Green Army, his system has also grown to a certain point.

"Congratulations to the host for reaching the level of a good athlete and learning a new skill: rebounding sense."

In this way, Li Lei has five skills.

……

Early the next morning, Li Lei brought Haslem to the arena early.

Do nothing and let Haslem shoot.

There is another requirement: No shots are allowed, but hit the basket.

Haslem: "???"

Are you playing with me?
Haslem sternly refused: "I can't do that."

Unless it's a big meal.

Li Lei promised to go to the high-end French restaurant in front of his house and let Haslem eat with an open stomach.

Haslem immediately agreed.

Really fragrant!

Soon, Haslem started the practice of "smashing the box".

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Little Blacksmith Miami is online.

Throughout the early morning, the American Airlines Center arena was shrouded in the sound of iron strikes.

Li Lei sat and watched.

Rebound sense +1.

Rebound sense +1.

Rebound sense +1.

……

Tell me you don't believe me.

The skill of smelling rebounds does not require Li Lei to play in person, he just needs to watch others shoot and learn to judge where the rebounds will fall.

……

During this period, other duels started one after another.

west:

森林狼先后106：92、95：81战胜掘金，大比分2：0。

The Kings beat the Mavericks 116:105, 83:79 consecutively.

The Spurs defeated the Grizzlies 98:74, 87:70.

The Lakers defeated Mosaic 72:71, 98:84.

The four Western Conference duels are all strong against the weak, with a big score of 2:0.

east:

Pacers 2:0 Knicks.

Nets 2:0 Bucks.

Pistons 1:1 Hornets.

Heat 1:1 Celtics.

The Pistons and Heat are the only teams to lose their home games.

The format of this year's playoffs is 1122121.

1 is the home of the strong team, and 2 is the home of the weak team.

In other words: the Heat's third game will be played in Boston.

In order to maintain a good condition to play away games, Pat Riley arranged a full load of training.

In the past few days, all the players of the Heat have not stopped training, sweating from morning to night every day.

This is also a specialty of Pat Riley.

Devil training, one day is indispensable.

4 month 24 day.

The third game between the Heat and the Celtics started.

7 pm.

TD North Shore Garden Arena.

Li Lei looked up at the 16 championship banners and 23 retired jerseys in the sky, and felt a sense of pilgrimage in his heart.

Drip!

Game start.

Cato jumped the ball to win.

Wade catches the ball and pushes it slowly.

Under the leadership of DJ, [-] Boston fans shouted: "Defense! Defense! Defense!"

But it didn't work.

Atkins's small stature is unlikely to stop Wade.

As soon as Wade exerted his strength, he squeezed Atkins away and broke through.

Davis came to the defense.

For the first ball, he still chose to put Old Jones first.

In the two games of G1 and G2, Wade showed super firepower, while the old Jones degenerated into a 3D shooter, relying solely on the feel of the hand.

So the Celtics give priority to defending Wade.

Wade passes the ball to Jones.

Jones adjusted his shot.

Bang!

The ball missed.

Davis breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Jones didn't feel good today, so he can safely double-team Wade.

The basketball hit the front of the basket, bounced far away, and flew in the direction of Pierce and Li Lei.

Li Lei suddenly felt something.

Smell the rebound!

Li Lei judged the rebound more accurately and grabbed the position before Pierce.

Sure enough, the ball flew towards Li Lei.

Li Lei didn't catch the ball either, he just stretched out his hand and passed the ball to Old Jones.

Old Jones adjusted and made a second shot.

Swish!
Have it.

3: 0.

"Good job!"

Li Lei and Old Jones clapped hands, and both of them laughed happily.

Li Lei started with 1 rebound and 1 assist, and Jones also scored 3 points.

More importantly: Will Davis still dare to short the old Jones?

Celtics offense.

Pierce played low singles, and Li Lei couldn't make a turnaround jumper.

Odom received the rebound, his next fast break, the frontcourt assists Wade scored 2 points.

5: 0.

Celtics attack.

Davis made a jumper.

5: 2.

Looking back, Wade broke through Atkins, and Davis really didn't dare to let old Jones go.

Blount on the inside defends Wade.

Wade passed the ball straight to the basket.

Unmarked Cato catches the ball and dunks.

boom!
7: 2.

The Green Army counterattacked, and McCarty hit a three-pointer to stop the bleeding for the Green Army.

7: 5.

Back in Boston, standing in the Celtics' historic home court: TD North Shore Garden Arena, amidst the cheers of the home team fans, the state of the Celtics has greatly improved.

McCarty's three-pointer is very important, and it didn't let the Heat open the score.

Boston fans are also happy that the team had a chance today.

No!It must be able to defend the home field.

Wade attacked again in the frontcourt, still catching Atkins bullying.

Pierce gritted his teeth, let Li Lei go, and went straight to Wade.

Wade gave the ball to Li Lei without hesitation.

Li Lei received the ball outside the three-point line, adjusted it, and shot directly.

The basketball crossed a parabola, piercing the heart with an arrow.

Swish!
So does Li Lei.

10: 5.

The point difference between the two teams returned to 5 points.

Coach Da Fan on the sidelines nodded.

Jones had a marked decline in the playoffs.

Li Lei never let him down.

Li Lei's data dropped in the first game, mainly because he spent all his energy on defense, and there were a few forced shots in 24 seconds, which helped his teammates take the blame.

Except for those few forced shots, Li Lei is still a big killer for open three-pointers.

Anyone who dared to let go of Li Lei's defense would be killed.

Of course, the most important thing is: Li Lei and Jones Sr. made all three-pointers. Will the Celtics still dare to pinch Wade?

Without flanking, how would they deal with Wade, who became more and more courageous?

Atkins alone really can't guard Wade.

Now, the Bostonians are starting to miss their original No. [-] Mike James, who is a very strong point guard, and at least he won't suffer too much against Wade.

But after the All-Star break, the Celtics participated in a three-way trade between the Pistons and the Eagles.

That's what the Pistons paid for Rasheed Wallace.

They traded Mike James for the more aggressive Chucky Atkins.

The Green Army management announced at the time: They upgraded the No. [-] position, and Atkins can provide Pierce with a lot of fire cover.

Boston fans were happy at the time.

But now, they just want to kick Atkins away.

This damn... no one can guard against... loopholes!
Thinking back to the original deal, the heads of Bostonians are all regretful.

They accomplished the reconstruction of the Eagles and the completion of the Pistons system, but they screwed themselves.

In a three-party transaction, two parties benefit, and the Green Army suffers.

Of course, the Celtics will not sit still.

Coach John Carroll took advantage of the dead ball to replace Chucky Atkins with Yeri Vershko.

Vershko is a 201cm tall European defender, a sophomore.

In the regular season, he averaged 9.2 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 38.1%.

The Celtics simply don't want a point guard.

This is also a helpless move.

Atkins is bad enough defensively, let alone a backup.

Now let's see if this trick works.

Celtics offense.

Davis broke through with the help of McCarty's screen.

Old Jones took a step slower and couldn't keep up in time.

Wade immediately rushed over to help defend.

Davis has quick eyes and quick hands, and passed the ball to Vershko who had just played.

Welshko catches and shoots.

Wade rushed back, the speed was very fast, but the height gap was a bit big, and he couldn't give enough interference.

Vilshko made a jump shot.

Swish!
Have it.

10: 8.

Vershko hit a three-pointer in less than 10 seconds on the field and made a contribution to the home team.

The Celtics bite the score again.

Back in Boston, the Celtics are really imposing.

The big shooter McCarty hits every shot, and Vershko, who just came on the court, can also hit a three-pointer steadily.

The TD North Shore Garden Arena is heating up, and the Bostonians are cheering for the home team.

Tonight, they will defend their home glory.
