With Joe Johnson absent and Paul sent off again, the original Big Three duel became a three-star battle between Ray Allen, Pierce, O'Neal and Garnett. In terms of cards, the Eagles are definitely at a disadvantage!

But the headwind situation obviously tested Ke Yan's coaching skills and on-the-spot command. According to Ke Yan's analysis of Rivers, this guy has poor adaptability. Rondo was sent off, which had a big impact.

In the second quarter of the game, Ke Yan sent out a combination of Barea, Rush, Tucker, Bass, and Diaw to design an offensive tactic of "five outside positions".

Barea and Diaw are both players with strong ability to push up and counterattack in their respective positions. Together with Bass, who has a strong impact, the Eagles have a strong ability to switch offense and defense; and once they fall into a positional battle, the Celtics' two insiders

Neither Pollard nor Glen Davis have enough lateral movement ability. The entire Hawks team moved to outside positions to either find open shots or create space for breakthroughs or air cuts.

"drop--"

As the referee blew the whistle, the second half of the game officially began.

The Eagles got the ball for the first attack. Barea and Buss played a pick-and-roll. Tyronn Lue took up his position in advance and squeezed through the screen. Barea did not have a chance to break in. Barea waved Buss to the bottom, and Tyronn Lue singled out Tyronn Lue.

Lenlu pretended to break through from the left, and suddenly dribbled the ball behind his back while walking. He passed Tyronnlue on the right, attracted Pollard to cover and then sent a pass. Bass received the ball and succeeded in a mid-range emergency stop jumper.

Because they spent a lot of money to recruit the Big Three, the Celtics' bench lineup was relatively average. Rondo's departure forced Ray Allen to take on more replacement tasks. Tyronn Lue held the ball through halftime and randomly

The ball was handed to Ray Allen.

Ray Allen held the ball and beat Rush in singles. Rush blocked his right wing. Ray Allen could only break through from the left wing. When he encountered Barea's defense, he was forced to pass the ball to James Posey, but was passed from an angle.

Tucker, who came out of the stabbing, successfully stole the ball.

The Eagles took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the Celtics retreated quickly, but neither of the two insiders, Glen Davis and Pollard, had time to come back. Barea broke through to the free throw line, squeezing the Celtics' defense.

Behind the defense, he jumped up and threw the ball back and passed it to Rush. Rush caught the ball and shot, and the basketball went hollow into the net, 28:33.

Whether in the Bucks or the SuperSonics, Ray Allen is not a player who is good at holding the ball in isolation in an absolute sense. Usually, the offensive method he is used to is either to use off-ball movement to get out of the space and then catch the ball.

For jump shots, you either hold the ball and cooperate with teammates in pick-and-rolls, and shoot when you find space; the first set of tactics requires a point guard with outstanding vision to deliver the bombs, while the latter requires teammates to have certain offensive capabilities to contain the defense.

Obviously, this Celtics lineup can't provide anything. Rivers' idea is to let Ray Allen be "Ginobili", but this is obviously not a comfortable way for Ray Allen to play.

The Celtics failed to attack. Barea and Buss played a pick-and-roll and beat Glen Davis. Despite Pollard's interference, he succeeded in a layup, 30:33.

In the second quarter, the Eagles continued to narrow the point difference, and soon launched a 12:4 attack wave, narrowing the point difference to 1 point. Seeing that Ray Allen's substitute was not effective, the team that worked so hard to build

The lead was gone. Pierce stood up and took off his clothes to prepare to play, but Rivers threw him under the basket and motioned for him to return to his seat...

"..." Pierce's face was a little speechless, but after all, Rivers is the coach, he can't "steal the coach in front of the field", right?

"Pierce wanted to go on the court to help the team, but Coach Rivers seemed to have other ideas. He asked Pierce to return to his seat. I think this decision is questionable." Mike Breen expressed his opinion.

"If I were in Rivers' position, I would put the main players on the field in advance, at least one of Pierce and O'Neal would echo Ray Allen! The Eagles are a stronger team, and they will play against such a team.

When facing an opponent, you cannot squander your lead, otherwise it will be difficult for you to have a chance to turn around." Mark Jackson said.

When Ke Yan came to the Eagles, he first tailored the team's offensive tactics, and then slowly introduced some defensive forces and instilled the idea of ​​"offensive and defensive balance" in the players. Mark Jackson is very much in favor of this idea. Even if he also has it in the future

If he had the opportunity to be the head coach of a team, he would also use Ke Yan's ideas to build the team.

However, some things are really "obsessed by those in power, but clear by those who watch." Rivers is now standing opposite Ke Yan and has no ability to find the right way to deal with the Hawks. He only feels that Joe Johnson is absent and Paul is replaced by Rondo and Tonya.

Lunduizi, the advantage is mine!

At the turn of the round, Paul and Diaw cooperated hand-to-hand. Tyronn Lue took up his position in advance and did not give Barea a chance to break through. Barea waved Diaw to the bottom and singled out Tyronn Lue, pretending to break through from the left.

During the march, he suddenly dribbled the ball from behind, passed Tyronn Lue on the right, and succeeded in a mid-range pull-up jumper.

At 44:41, the Eagles not only recovered the point difference, but also took the lead!

Seeing that the time was almost up, Rivers called a timeout and replaced O'Neal and Pierce, taking Ray Allen off the court to rest.

As the Celtics' strongest singles player on the outside, after Pierce came on the court, the Celtics' offense greatly improved. Ke Yan replaced Battier and Garnett to attack, but he was unable to lock the connection between Pierce and O'Neal.

, and even loopholes will inevitably appear.

Fortunately, Garnett's offensive sense is pretty good, helping the Hawks to keep up with their opponents.

At halftime, the Eagles led the Celtics by 1 point 52:51.

During the halftime break, Ke Yan started to have a "headache". Although some people don't think much of Rivers, it has to be said that the Celtics' three giants are still very powerful. Against 80% of their opponents, as long as three

If an individual doesn't pull any strings, it's enough to "kill people indiscriminately".

The key is that they have a lot of people! After Rondo defeated Paul, the situation of "Three Heroes vs. Lu Bu" has been formed on the court. Rivers gave the core players enough rest time in the first half, and he didn't mind in the second half of the game.

"The main force of dead grass".

"Boris, in the second half of the game, you will play point guard as a guest!" Under the unfavorable situation, Ke Yan decided to "change the formation" and use his own way to deal with Rivers.

Diaw guest-starred as point guard and Anderson served as the starter. The Hawks' field lineup was somewhat "closer" to his "three-high" formation against the Spurs. Diaw's role was similar to Odom's of the Lakers.

.

When the "three highs" were used to fight the Spurs, the main purpose was to deal with Duncan, hoping to use the strongest power in the penalty area to cause maximum consumption to Duncan.

Using a similar layout to deal with the Celtics in this game is to seize the weakness of the Celtics' lack of offensive defenders. The players on the field are not impactful enough and cannot involve the Eagles' defense to the greatest extent; there is no doubt that

, three insiders playing together will also block the Eagles' penalty area, which will also limit Pierce's breakthrough and O'Neal Jr.'s inside singles.

In addition, part of the reason why Ke Yan dared to do this kind of thing in such a game was because of Rivers.

With this guy's tactical literacy and on-the-spot response ability, it would be difficult to defeat Ke Yan's move in a short period of time.

After the timeout, the two teams returned to the court. The changes in the Eagles' lineup soon excited Mike Breen and Mark Jackson in the commentary box.

"At the beginning of the second half, Kimi took the initiative to make adjustments to the lineup. We can see that he put three inside players on the court. Plus Battier, they have four players with a score of 205 or more on the court~" Mike Breen said

, "In the playoffs of the 0405 season, Kimi used such tactics to bring down the Spurs. That was also the series in which Kimi became famous."

"The difference is that the Lakers had Kobe at that time. While ensuring his offensive firepower, Kobe also tried his best to bite Parker on the defensive end. That was the key to the Lakers being able to compete with the Spurs. Otherwise, such a formation would easily be defeated by Parker.

The small defender disrupted the defensive layout; and in this game, Kimi may have bullied the Celtics for not having a small defender like Parker!"

The Hawks attacked. Diaw and Garnett, who were guest point guards, played a pick-and-roll. Tyronn Lue went around the screen and was forced into the inside by Diaw. He had no ability to interfere with Diaw's shot and watched his opponent score a layup.

Looking back, Diaw faced off against Tyronn Lue. He was only responsible for the defense outside the three-point line. He did not guard against shots. Tyronn Lue broke through Diaw's defense in one step and was in a dilemma. Let's continue to attack the basket. Garnett and Anderson

Standing inside; let's make a long two-point shot, I'm not good at it...

After a moment of hesitation, Tyronn Lue made a decision and continued to attack the basket, attracting Garnett's defense and then passing the ball to O'Neal. However, he and O'Neal failed to form a tacit understanding. This wave of cooperation failed to create space.

O'Neal Jr. caught the ball and beat Garnett, faced the frame and scored the ball. (54:53)

This wave of offense is more a reflection of O'Neal's personal ability rather than a tactical one.

On the court, the Hawks attacked, Garnett played in the low post, encountered help on defense, and passed the ball to Diaw on the outside.

Diaw did not shoot an open three-pointer. He held the ball and rushed to the basket. When he encountered the Celtics' shrinking defense, he passed the ball to Battier who was in the open position. The latter caught the ball and shot. Pierce helped defend in time. Basketball

It missed the frame and was grabbed by Perkins.

Tyronn Lue held the ball through the half, Ray Allen and O'Neal Jr. played a pick-and-roll, and Garnett stepped on the three-point line to strangle Ray Allen. Ray Allen did not try to get rid of Garnett and directly hit the ball to the ball.

Little O'Neal, Little O'Neal took advantage of the situation and hit the basket. Anderson's magic weapon came from the sky and blocked the shot face to face!

"Beautiful! Unbelievable! Wow~⊙o⊙! What a wonderful block!" Mike Breen and Mark Jackson both called frantically for Anderson's block! This block was crisp and domineering!

The entire Eagles bench also stood up to cheer for Anderson!

This wave of offense and defense was not over yet. O'Neal, who was knocked to the ground, did not return to defense in time. The Eagles formed a 5-on-4 situation in the frontcourt. The cooperation of Diaw and Garnett easily dismantled the Celtics.

The four-man defense created an opportunity for Anderson to break the frame. Anderson caught the ball inside the free throw line, took off directly, and faced Perkins to complete the dunk! (56:53)

This attack and defense were extremely explosive. Ke Yan on the sidelines also stood up and pumped his fist heavily to express his excitement.

"A birdman who flies with the help of science, I think of a falcon!" Mike Breen did not expect that his comment would directly give Anderson a new "nickname."

Anderson's wonderful performance boosted the morale of the Eagles. In the next three minutes, the Eagles completed a 12:3 attack wave, widening the point difference to 12 points in one breath. Rivers was forced to call a timeout.

Adjusted the team's defense.

After surviving the Hawks' "chicken-blood period", the Celtics began to launch a counterattack around the Big Three. Facing Battier's defense, Pierce began to roll inside like a wolf. His running and jumping ability is among the superstars.

Not good enough, but his static strength is very strong, his skills are full of skills, and he has the ability to protect the team on the offensive end.

Pierce is responsible for taking the lead, and Ray Allen is responsible for chasing points. In today's game, Ray Allen actually felt good. He hit four three-pointers in the first half, but his performance was not very good when Rivers asked him to lead the bench.

, affecting the direct perception. In the second half of the third quarter, Ray Allen continued to fire from the outside, hitting consecutive three-pointers, helping the Celtics narrow the point difference to 7 points before the end of the third quarter. (87

:80)

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Hawks put on the bench to give the main players more rest time; while the Celtics continued to play with the Big Three, and the other two players were Tyronn Lue and Pollard.

Seeing the Eagles using their substitute lineup to face the match, Rivers was secretly happy and planned to take advantage of this period to quickly even out the score difference, or even go ahead.

But Ke Yan was not a vegetarian. After being unable to defeat the opponent in a close encounter, Ke Yan directed his players to use the "shark-cutting tactic" and fouled Pollard to delay the Celtics' pursuit of points.

In a game broadcast live across the United States, this kind of less entertaining tactic is used to disgust people, which is more or less offending. But today’s fight has been fought, so it’s not bad. There is wine today, and tomorrow’s worries will come tomorrow.

So be it.

Pollard stood on the free throw line 8 times and hit 4 goals. His free throw performance was quite satisfactory. (91:88)

Although the point difference was narrowed, the frequent sending of Pollard to the free throw line also gave the Eagles' main players sufficient rest time. With 8 minutes left in the game, Ke Yan replaced the main players for the second half and followed the Celtics.

People launched a decisive battle in advance.

Other Celtic players opened up the space. Pierce and O'Neal Jr. played pick-and-rolls and encountered the Eagles' tight defense. Diaw boldly shrank and flanked Pierce with Garnett. Battier switched to defend in front of O'Neal Jr.

Strictly guard against his catch, and Rush on the weak side is also close to Ray Allen.

Pierce's breakthrough was blocked and he could only pass the ball to Tyronn Lue, who was freed by Diaw. After Tyronn Lue received the ball, he no longer had the strength to break through again. He adjusted and shot a three-pointer. The basketball missed the frame and was missed by Anderson.

Grab it.

The Eagles launched a counterattack, Battier went straight to the right side of the Celtics, received a pass from Diaw and made a layup, 93:88.

At the turn of the round, Pierce called for a screen. Battier was a little careless and wanted to go around the screen in advance. Pierce suddenly started, broke through to the inside in reverse, and succeeded in a layup, 93:90.

The Eagles attacked, Pierce faced off against Diaw, and asked Tyronn Lue to defend Battier. Unexpectedly, Battier, who is famous for his 3D, was not merciless in the face of his absolute size advantage, forcing Tyronn Lue to break into the penalty area and rush in. Before help came, the shot hit, 95:90.

Looking back, Pierce and O'Neal played a pick-and-roll, O'Neal played outside, Pierce distributed the ball in time, O'Neal made a mid-range shot, and the rebound was grabbed by Pierce who rushed to the basket, and he scored the ball with Garnett's help. ,95:92.

The Eagles attack, Garnett pulls to the corner to catch the ball, facing O'Neal's defense, he resolutely goes outside, breaks through the opponent's defense, attracts Ray Allen to help defend, and passes to Rush, who catches the ball and shoots. The basketball hits the net hollow, 98:92.

Facing the Celtics, who are second in the Eastern Conference, the Hawks still have a certain advantage even though they have lost two core players on the outside. This is a bit surprising, and it also confirms the concept of "one super, many strong" among many people. Alliance pattern.

Facts have proven that the current Eagles are the only T0-level team in the league.

But one thing I have to say is that this game is exactly the best game Diaw has played this season. Paul's absence has allowed the Eagles to run the ball more smoothly. I have to say that this is a bit ironic.

Just like the Grizzlies in later generations, Morant is obviously very strong, but the "No Mo Bears" have a higher winning rate.

To be precise, it may be that this conflict changed the game. Ke Yan digested the impact of Paul's departure and came up with countermeasures, and Rivers actually let Tyronn Lue play on the court all the time. This That's the difference between the two coaches.

The two sides went back and forth, and until the last two minutes, the Eagles still enjoyed a 5-point lead.

When the Celtics attacked, Pierce continued to single out Battier and directly passed Battier through a cross-step dribble. Garnett had already been prepared and shrank to help defend. Pierce faked a sudden pass and deceived Garnett. , layup, 108:105.

"Beep——"

Without saying anything, Ke Yan called a timeout, gathered the players together, and readjusted the tactics.

The timeout ended, both sides returned to the court, and the game came to the final moment.

The Eagles attacked, and Diaw controlled the time until the last 10 seconds. With the help of Garnett's pick-and-roll, he broke through Pierce's defense, accelerated to the baseline and broke through O'Neal's defense, and was tightly entangled by the opponent...

"Ah!" Mike Breen suddenly shouted, "Anderson caught the ball, my God, how did Diaw pass it?"

With O'Neal completely blocking his position on the baseline, and taking one more step to risk a mistake, Diaw hooked the ball with his left hand from outside the baseline to Anderson, who was inserted in front of Perkins. The Birdman once again transformed into a "Falcon" ", take off directly with your back to the basket, and dunk on your back to score.

"Yeah!!! Chris, you are the best!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

The audience was boiling again, and Mike Breen sighed:

"After today's game, I believe no one will question Diaw's role! Once he regains his form, the Eagles will be the Big Four!"

While sending the ball into the basket, Anderson caused a foul by Perkins. After hitting the extra free throw, the point difference came to 6 points again. (111:105)

This goal somewhat demoralized the Celtics. In the next round of offense, the Celtics were eager to chase points. Perkins provided an off-ball screen to Ray Allen, but was called a screen foul by the referee. The Eagles had the ball.

.

The back and forth basically ended the suspense of the game. In the end, the Eagles defeated the Celtics 114:109 and won the battle for the top spot!

The Hawks gave up Joe Johnson and were exchanged for Paul, but still won the game, which made Rivers look very unhappy.

However, as a head coach who has never been "unemployed" in the 20 years since he coached the Magic, Rivers also has his own way. When faced with reporters' questions, he immediately began to blur the focus and criticized Paul for poking Rondo's face with his hand, causing

There is a contradiction.

"The Eagles are not that strong. If we can maintain the integrity of the lineup, the Celtics are not afraid of the Eagles!"

Come on, the Eagles gave up two main players today!

The reporter asked Keyan what Rivers said, but Keyan smiled knowingly.

"Okay! I agree that this game is not a conversation in the absolute sense where the main players of both sides are present, but it doesn't matter. There are still opportunities for us to talk to each other, and we will slowly see whether the facts are more convincing, or River.

Si’s mouth is even tougher!”

Historically, Rivers has made similar remarks. After the Warriors won their first championship, Rivers made the famous statement, "The Warriors won the championship because they didn't meet the Clippers!", a few days after that.

In this season, the Warriors played against the Clippers almost once and for all, with no need for any mobilization. The Clippers call it "Paul Griffin dual-core, DeAndre Jordan dual-team center, Redick sharpshooter"

The configuration is vulnerable to the Warriors who are full of rage.

Ke Yan accepted Rivers' words and hoped to have the same effect in the next few seasons!

...

Although the game is over, the investigation into the conflict between Paul and Rondo has just begun! After all, it is a nationally broadcast game. If there is a fight in this kind of game, the league will definitely impose heavy penalties!

As for the reason for the conflict between the two people during the game, through continuous investigation, the truth gradually came to light.

Before the fight started, the two men clashed constantly. Paul's attack was blocked, and Rondo came over to talk trash. His saliva sprayed on Paul's face intentionally or unintentionally. Paul then poked Rondo's face with his hand, and Rondo punched Paul.

...

Rondo was the one who provoked first, Paul was the one who made the first move, Rondo was the one who hit someone first, and Paul had the upper hand and hit people harder. It depends on the angle from which the league examines this conflict.

Celtics fans and Hawks fans were sniping at each other online, with the two sides fighting a 50-50 split. The result was a bit surprising.

It's not that Celtic fans "tied" the Hawks that is surprising, but that Hawks fans can actually tie with Celtics fans is surprising. After all, the Celtics are the No. 1 powerhouse in the NBA and have huge influence; and the Hawks

The team has been bad for so many years, but it has only just picked up in the past two years. The fans brought by Garnett are a force, Ke Yan has influenced the choices of the Chinese, and there are even fans from the Zhonghua Family who have climbed over the wall to support, and several coalition forces have decided to fight for the green jersey.

military.

The punishment results have not yet been announced, but Ke Yan unexpectedly won an award from CCTV. After review by the judges, CCTV awarded Ke Yan the "Best Coach Award" at the 2007 China Sports Figures Awards Ceremony.

CCTV insiders informed Ke Yan of the news and informed him to be connected to the scene on December 3, the day of the award ceremony.

Compared with the "Top Ten Outstanding Youths in Sioux City", CCTV's "Sports Figures" is quite valuable, especially for other domestic sports. It is a very important honor. After receiving this award, Ke Yan

I can’t say that I didn’t feel it, I can only say that it was quite unexpected.

Although his achievements in the NBA are dazzling, in the final analysis, he is not playing for the country and is always a bit "empty". This is also the reason why, in addition to being more popular among young girls, his national popularity is obviously not as good as that of Yao Ming.

Of course, take care of what you have come. Ke Yan’s good stuff is there, so there is no problem in winning awards. In the summer, he also sacrificed some of his personal rest time to participate in seminars organized by the Basketball Association to give "lessons to domestic coaches"

"His existence itself also plays a great role in promoting basketball in China. These are his contributions to Chinese sports! Therefore, there is no need to belittle oneself.

One day later, the NBA officially announced the punishment results: Tony Allen was suspended for 4 games because he returned to the conflict aggressively, escalated it, punched Paul back, and acted adversely to the referee.

Rondo was suspended for three games because he spat at Paul, caused a physical altercation, and punched him several times. Paul was suspended for poking Rondo in the face and punching him.

2 game ban!

Paul and Rondo, who were punching each other, were not punished as severely as Tony Allen, who was assisting with punches. The league is trying its best to preserve Paul's image. After all, Paul's performance so far this season is at MVP level, and will be the best in the league in the future.

Iconic figure.
