Chapter 208 The greatest moment in team history, please support)

Diaw quickly sent a baseline kick, and the Eagles started a fast break. Paul advanced quickly. Garnett stepped in in the middle and pointed to the sky. Paul threw the ball. Garnett used his strength to squeeze away Kostic and jumped up.

The ball goes into the basket.

Once upon a time, this was the Nets' specialty. Kidd, Kittles, Jefferson, and Kenyon Martin were thriving in running and gunning. But even at that time, the Nets were not as good as the current Nets.

I'm afraid the Eagles won't be easy to beat either, right?

To put it another way, if the Nets had an insider of Garnett's caliber at that time, they probably still wouldn't be able to beat the Lakers in the 2002 Finals, but it would be hard to say if they faced the Spurs in the 2003 Finals.

The Nets attack, Richard Jefferson catches the ball from the wing and hits Anthony Parker in isolation. Jefferson intends to break through from the center, but when Anthony Parker shifts his center of gravity to the left, he quickly completes a large change of direction.

, then pushed back with his left shoulder, blocking Anthony Parker's possibility of returning to defense, and hit a short-range pull-up jumper.

Richard Jefferson is a top weak-side singles player in the league. It is indeed easier to beat Anthony Parker, and Ke Yan has already been mentally prepared.

Looking back, Joe Johnson found Anthony Parker's factory. He received the ball in the elbow area and beat Jefferson in singles. He bent down to lower the dribbling point. His ultra-low dribbling allowed Jefferson to continuously reach out to intercept and defend.

His center of gravity was still thrown around, and he awkwardly held his hands on the floor to avoid the embarrassment of being knocked down.

Seeing Jefferson "prostrate" in front of him, Joe Johnson paused and raised his hand to hit the ball amidst the cheers of the fans. Immediately, the decibel level of the Phillips Center increased by two levels, and even Ke Yan was stunned.

Lean back and make a posture like "What is an international superstar?"

When the Nets attack, Kidd controls the ball to the frontcourt and is not very fast. He relies on his height and wingspan to protect the basketball and at the same time directs his teammates to move.

Carter caught the ball in the middle without a screen, and hit a three-pointer when he faced the frame. Joe Johnson was caught off guard and had no time to block it, so he could only watch the ball and sigh. Carter's shot had a very flat arc, his shot was very straight, and he hit it accurately.

(6:7)

The Eagles attacked, and Garnett took the initiative to ask for the ball in the low post, trying to suppress the weak Nets in the low post. Krstic was easily suppressed by Garnett. Carter assisted in defense, but Garnett found an opportunity to pass the ball to Anthony in the corner.

Parker, it's a pity that the latter missed the three-pointer when he controlled the open space.

The opportunity was fully realized, but he was unable to seize the open opportunity. This is not a problem that Ke Yan can solve.

Carter retreated to grab the backcourt rebound, and he dribbled the ball very actively across half court. The Eagles players quickly returned to defense, but Carter did not rush inside. He pulled up from the right side at a 70-degree angle and shot a three-pointer.

Tabooing Carter's sprinting threat on the counterattack, Parker took an extra step back on the defensive end. This time, the defense only had time to stretch out his hand. With slight interference, the ball drew a beautiful arc and hit the net! (6:10)

After the opening, Carter felt great, hitting three of three shots and scoring eight points in a row, catching the Eagles off guard.

Ke Yan frowned on the sidelines. After Diaw served, he reminded Diaw loudly: "Don't stay on the outside line, go inside, and follow the KG!"

As Ke Yan's "favorite general", Diaw is better able to understand Ke Yan's tactical intentions. In the next offense, he did not stay on the outside and "pamper himself", but moved to the inside. This adjustment immediately took effect, and Garnett's side

Krstic was singled out in the frame and forced to break into the basket. Collins was a step too slow to defend and could only stop Garnett with a foul.

He played too easily in the paint, but Garnett's free throws were subpar, making one of two free throws.

The Nets attack, the team's formation is spread out, Kidd holds the ball in the middle, Carter runs on the side without the ball, Kidd passes the ball, Gart catches the ball, attracting Garnett to switch defense, holding the ball to open up space.

Kostic cut to the basket, and Carter immediately passed the ball over.

Krstic is the only insider on the Nets' offensive end who can see clearly. After receiving the ball, he relies on Joe Johnson to turn to the middle and enter the penalty area. He holds the ball with both hands and shakes his shoulders, causing Joe Johnson to tilt his toes, raise his hands, and raise his center of gravity.

, relying on Joe Johnson's left-hand throw from close range. (7:12)

Joe Johnson is relatively strong among shooting guards, and he won't suffer any disadvantages when he switches to the third position, but he still can't stand it if you ask him to play in the paint, and besides, his defensive awareness is average.

When the Hawks attacked, Joe Johnson wanted to return the favor and challenged Jefferson. He leaned to the left and turned around to shoot a jumper that missed due to interference. Garnett rushed to grab the offensive rebound and dunked with one hand on the second offense.

The ball went in, and Collins looked at the ball and sighed with excitement, but did not reach out.

Kidd dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, handed the ball to Carter and then ran towards the bottom corner. Carter held the ball in the middle and faced the frame. With his explosive power and strength against the opponent Joe Johnson, he took half a step of space and then made an emergency stop jumper. His touch today

It's also very good, another one won.

In fact, the Hawks maintained a good defensive formation at the beginning and did not reveal any obvious gaps; but the Nets' two major offensive points, Carter and Jefferson, were full of hands, and Kidd, as the team's main point guard, did not steal the show, giving

They deliver shells while freeing up the best singles environment for them.

Seeing that Carter was scoring consecutive points, Paul also got angry. He held the ball and forced a pass over Kidd, and he made a sudden stop inside the right three-point line and shot a jumper. He was unable to completely get rid of the defense. Under interference, Jefferson grabbed the rebound.

After landing, Jefferson immediately passed it to Kidd, who passed the half court and lobbed it to the middle.

Carter, who was on the fast break, jumped up to catch the ball with both hands, half-turned in the air, and directly connected with the basketball and scored. The Nets opened the point difference to 7 points. (9:16)

Ke Yan looked unkind and stood up again, shouting at the players, reminding them to be patient and focused!

The Eagles were attacking in a positional battle. Parker caught the ball from the side and lobbed it to Garnett. The latter relied on Krstic to turn around and went deep into the basket. He missed the throw due to the interference of Collins' defense. The unguarded Diaw grabbed the offensive rebound.

The ball, dunks and scores. Stop the bleeding for the team.

This is the purpose of Ke Yan's decision to move Diaw inside. When he goes inside, the Eagles' inside advantage can be more reflected.

When Carter felt good, Kidd would keep giving the ball to Carter for singles. In the next round, the Hawks adopted a flanking defense strategy against Carter.

Carter's ability to break double teams is relatively average among superstars, and it was not very comfortable to pass the ball to Kidd after containing the defense. Kidd is not good at shooting. Seeing Paul's defense return to position, he did not rush to take a shot from the outside.

He took advantage of the confrontation to rush inside and force a throw before Garnett came up to defend.

Kidd's shot was a little hasty and missed, but Collins grabbed the offensive rebound and put the ball into the basket. At this time, Ke Yan became anxious and quickly called a timeout. (11:18).

In fact, the Hawks' opening performance was not that bad. Except for Paul's uncool attack and Parker's mismatch, there were not many mistakes. The key is that Carter's touch on the Nets' side is really hot.

Made four shots and stunned the Eagles.

During the timeout, Ke Yan did not make any substitutions, but only emphasized the intensity of double-teaming Carter and the defensive rotation after the double-teaming. The greater significance of his calling for a timeout was to disrupt the rhythm of the Nets' offense and destroy Carter's offensive feel.

Kidd's mid- and long-range shooting is not stable, and Jefferson can only be said to be on the level. The defensive rotation system built around Garnett should be able to reduce the threat to the greatest extent.

After the timeout, the Hawks attacked. Paul and Diaw played a pick-and-roll. The latter caught the ball and hit Kidd in a misplaced position. He carried Kidd inward and relied on his height advantage to score a backhand layup.

On the defensive end, Diaw cooperated with Joe Johnson to double attack Carter. Under pressure, Carter jumped the ball and passed the ball inside. Garnett interfered and destroyed the sideline.

Kidd served the ball from the sideline and lobbed it directly to the basket, but Garnett was already prepared. He got in front of Carter and picked the ball off. Then he was about to launch a fast break counterattack, but Carter stabbed him from behind.

There was no reaction from the referee. Carter took the lead and screamed while covering his fingers. His fingertips poked Garnett's wrist bone and stopped, causing some pain.

Not only was he called for a foul, but he also injured his finger. Carter was a bit "losing his wife and losing his troops." After Carter took a break, the pressure on the Nets' defensive end was greatly reduced. Garnett was able to devote more energy to the offense.

At the end of the game, chasing the Nets' inside attack, he scored 13 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists in a single quarter, leading the Nets to overtake the score to 34:28 at the end of the first quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, Carter returned to the court, but the finger injury undoubtedly affected Carter's touch. Facing the defense of Stevens and Hassell, Carter's offensive touch was quite average. On the contrary, the Eagles'

Rookie Gibson has recovered somewhat after a break during the "Christmas vacation". Under the guidance of Diaw's passing, he made three of four shots and scored 8 points, helping the team continue its firepower.

At 6 minutes, Paul and Garnett came on the scene to replace Stevens and Diaw, while Gibson, who was feeling hot, was left on the court.

The Hawks play dual point guards. The backcourt combination of Kidd and Carter has obvious physical advantages, but if they play hard inside, Garnett's presence can effectively prevent them from attacking the basket, while Kidd and Carter, who is injured, can

The shooting threat is not great, so the Nets can only place their expectations on Jefferson as the main attacker. Obviously, the Arizona Flyers, who have obvious technical flaws, cannot support this position.

At halftime, the Eagles opened the point difference to 20 points. (69:49)

Facing the low-blooded Nets, the Hawks began to retain their strength in the third quarter. Garnett no longer dropped low to attack the Nets' internal weaknesses, but instead pulled out of the penalty area to experiment with Diaw's formation.

According to fans, being able to expand or hold on to a lead is a scientist's "scientific research time". If such an operation leads to a narrowing of the points difference or even a reversal by the opponent, that is when Ke Yan begins to "make things right."

Fortunately, Ferguson is still the head coach of Manchester United. Otherwise, Ke Yan would have many forms in the fans' mouth: "Lightning Earl-Scientist-Ke Yan-Ke Zi-Ke Hai"

Ke Yan conducted a "scientific experiment", but the Nets still couldn't narrow the point difference. Carter, who played with an injury, was really a little stunned. After three quarters, the score reached 94:76, and the Eagles still led by 18 points.

It also turned the fourth quarter into a complete garbage time.

In the final quarter of the game, Carter did not appear on the bench and returned directly to the locker room. Then he left the arena and went to the hospital to take a film to confirm the injury. The Nets immediately admitted defeat.

In this case, Ke Yan also directly let Gibson, Millsap, Milicic and other substitutes play the entire fourth quarter. The final score was fixed at 115:100, and the Eagles won at home.

Garnett played in three quarters, making 11 of 18 shots, 4 of 6 free throws, and scored 26 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, and 2 blocks. Paul, Joe Johnson, Milicic, and Gibson also scored in double figures.

For the Nets, Carter scored 22 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, but his efficiency was low after a finger injury, shooting 4 of 13 from the field; Kidd scored 14 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists, a near-triple-double performance, an outstanding performance, but nothing happened.

After Carter was injured, there was really no one on the team who could step up.

At the press conference, Ke Yan talked about the game and expressed his views: "I have to admit that the Nets' opening performance was beyond my expectations. The opponent's performance once suppressed us. Fortunately, we made a timely decision

Adjustments were made to allow Garnett and Diaw to enter the paint more. Carter's injury affected the progress of the game to a certain extent. I hope he is not seriously injured."

The reporter asked: "Gibson performed well in today's game. Will you give him more playing time?"

"If the team needs it, I will arrange it this way. Gibson has a strong ability to catch and shoot, which makes him a duck in water when paired with an excellent point guard like Paul. I also look forward to his future development."

Ke Yan strongly praised his disciple.

"The Mavericks won another victory today. They are now only two games behind the Hawks. Do you think you can maintain the number one spot in the league?" the reporter started to stir up trouble and asked.

"Although the title of regular season champion is very attractive, objectively speaking, whether it is us or the Mavericks, even if they maintain their respective rankings, they may not necessarily be able to break out of the conference, so I don't think there is a competition between us.

"Ke Yan said, "The important thing is that we do our best and prove that we can compete with any opponent."

"Ke Yan: Carter's injury affected the progress of the game."

"espn: "Scientists say Carter's injury determined the outcome of the game"

"UC: Shocked! Ke Yan admitted that if Carter had not been injured, it would be difficult for the Hawks to win!"

"Prime Minister Guda: Fighting with injuries still shines in the audience. Ke Yan said that if Carter is healthy, the sky is his limit!"

"…………"

During the interview, Ke Yan was modest and emphasized the impact of Carter's injury on the game. However, after the media added fuel to the fire, it was directly misinterpreted as evidence that Ke Yan was "afraid" of Carter.

Some people are strong in personal honors, good stuff, and performance; some people are strong in data and highlights; some people are strong in other people's words; and some people are strong in what fans say.

On December 29, the Eagles went to Boston to challenge the Celtics in away games.

As in history, the team performed poorly at the start of the season. Under the guidance of general manager Anji, the Celtics began to rebuild, focusing on training the team's newcomers, and at the same time set their sights on the 2007 draft!

Unlike other teams that focus on Oden, Ainge is most concerned about Kevin Durant in the potential draft year. This wing scorer who is modeled after Durant has no offensive dead spots on the court and can

Take the shot from any position. Ainge is more optimistic about his future prospects than McGrady.

The Celtics, who are in a bad stage, focus on training young people. Young people such as Rondo, West, Gerald Green, Tony Allen, and Al Jefferson have received ample training opportunities.

.

In the game, Garnett was very good at bullying young people. He defeated his opponent Al Jefferson point-to-point. He played 33 minutes and scored 30 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists.

Paul, another core player on the team, also scored a double-double with 20 points, 5 rebounds and 10 assists, also suppressing his lifelong enemy Rondo.

Paul and Garnett teamed up to lead the Hawks to win the game.

In the last game of 2006, the Hawks lost to the Pistons 101-109 at home, ending their winning streak.

Joe Johnson and Garnett scored 20, but others couldn't find the feeling in shooting.

Facing Billups, Paul only scored 14 points and 7 assists. Not only was his personal performance poor, he also failed to organize the team's offense.

Correct

On the other hand, the Pistons scored in double figures with six players and scored more points. Billups scored 208 and continued his "bloodline suppression" of Paul.

After this game, the Eagles ended their 2006 journey. In the 0506 season, the team reached the Eastern Conference semifinals, which was the furthest they had gone since the 9798 season. In the 0607 season, the team achieved 25 wins.

The 6-loss record is also the best record in the history of the Eagles.

After Ke Yan took over, he has broken the Eagles' records countless times. Apart from one championship, this has been the most glorious time in the history of the Eagles.
