Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

"Shhhh~!"

Opening lightning strike.

Accompanied by huge boos of 120 decibels, the Knicks' starting five came on the stage, with Zuo Li and Randolph partnering with Perkins, Garnett, Chandler, Danny Green and Curry on the outside against Pierce and Rea.

Lun, Rondo.

From the perspective of the lineup, it is obvious that the Celtics are better. Of course, this is limited to the case that Curry has not grown up this season and Danny Green is still very young.

But playing football is not about history, nor is it about playing at the peak. Playing football is about the present. The fighting power at this moment determines the outcome of the game.

Before the game, people were generally optimistic about the Celtics playing at home. Of course, because the Knicks were slapped so hard last season and this season they have won 12 consecutive games, many people in the industry still voted for the Knicks.

.

However, judging from the situation at the beginning of the game, perhaps the Knicks will not be beaten again tonight.

After the jump ball was successful, the Knicks failed to hit the first attack. Curry, who faced Rondo for the first time, was a little careless. His ball was not sure and was intercepted by Rondo. The latter quickly completed the fast break and opened the door for Kay.

The Celtics scored two points.

"Oh, Rondo, he is currently averaging 14.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 10.2 assists and 2.5 steals per game this season. His performance is very good. Among the Eastern Conference defenders, he is definitely an All-Star player. Although from the data point of view, Curry's field performance is very good.

Averages of 11.5 points, 4 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.5 steals are not bad, but judging from this round, Curry, a fledgling rookie, has still been educated." Kenny Smith said.

Curry, who was defeated in the first round, was eager to regain face, but obviously, the third-year Rondo was much better at physical confrontation than Curry, so Curry wanted to get rid of it and then shot, but because of the confrontation, Garnett closed

Get off the rebound.

Coming to the frontcourt, Garnett, who returned to the game after a season, caught the ball in the pick-and-roll and hit the ball in the mid-range. Randolph failed to keep up.

This is the reason why the Celtics regretted last season. If Garnett was here, the Knicks would not be able to play so easily inside, and Zuo Li would not be able to kill everyone. He almost single-handedly destroyed the entire Green Kai defense, thus

Celtic eliminated.

Yes, if Garnett was here last season, it would be difficult for the Knicks to win. Zuo Li never denies this.

But that's normal. Garnett is in good shape and has not been affected by injuries!

This season, although Garnett's return has improved the Celtics' inside strength, Garnett's strength is no longer what it used to be. It can be said that last season's serious injury was a major turning point in Garnett's career.

The Zuo Li at this time is not the Zuo Li of last season, and the Knicks are not the Wu Xia Amon back then.

"Switch." Zuo Li switched defenses with Randolph, leaving him to guard Garnett!

And this is exactly the Celtics' tactic. They also asked Garnett to follow Zuo Li. This was not the first game Garnett faced Zuo Li. In the first two games last season, it was Garnett who made Zuo Li encounter him.

The first time he entered the league was a statistical failure. He faced Garnett twice in his career, and Zuo Li had yet to win.

The Knicks once again organized an attack. This time Curry passed half the court and split the ball. Randolph sank to the bottom, and the two shooters sat on the wings. This was the Knicks' No. 1 tactic, leaving room for singles at the top of the left arc!

Only the Knicks would leave the No. 1 tactic to their stars for singles play, which shows how much the coaching staff led by D'Antoni trust Zuo Li's ability.

Of course, Zuo Li deserves this trust.

This time, Zuo Li did not disappoint people. He did not call for a pick-and-roll, but pulled away, started at a very fast speed, faked back and forth, swayed his shoulders, and took a test step, and then pulled back with his right hand to pick up Sam Goad. The frequency of his movements was so fast that it was shocking.

Dizzying.

Garnett opened his arms. In terms of defense, he was even more comprehensive than Duncan in his peak period. He ranked first in defensive rebounding history for 6 consecutive seasons in 20105. He was the first player to score 25,000 points, 10,000 rebounds, 5,000 assists, 1,500 blocks, and 1,500 steals. These are

These are not just boasts, but real achievements.

Therefore, Garnett has the confidence to defend Zuo Li, and Zuo Li will rush in. The Celtics will rotate positions in time. This is a tactic carefully arranged by Rivers against the Knicks.

Valley attack

However, no matter how good the strategy is, there are moments when it is miscalculated.

"No!" The moment Zuo Li broke through, Garnett gave up following Zuo Li because he felt that even if he followed Zuo Li's swing, his knees were already under tremendous pressure, and he might be injured if he forced himself to follow.

So in the eyes of the outside world, Garnett was shaken so that he didn't move at all. Zuo Li rushed past the left side and entered the inside. Perkins was dragged and unable to defend. It was Pierce who defended, but when Zuo Li flew into the air, Perkins was unable to defend.

The moment he stood up, Pierce also stepped aside...

Stay away and stay safe!

Pierce, as a representative figure who can be hard or soft(?), knows best when to defend and when to withdraw.

Obviously, this ball must be withdrawn!

Bang!

In a deafening dunk, Zuo Li stretched the rim 40 degrees before returning it, causing the referee to stare for a while, fearing that something might happen to the rim again.

After landing, Zuo Li simply beat his chest in celebration, and then fought back amid boos from the audience. He also did not forget the fans who supported him, and blew a kiss to Feimao, which also excited the fans in front of the TV for a long time.

.

The fans at the scene felt provoked by Zuo Li, so they booed and insulted louder, but Zuo Li pretended not to hear them.

Moreover, as if inspired by the boos, during the defensive process, when he bypassed Garnett's pick-and-roll, he stretched out his arms and directly took the ball out of the air!

Rondo looked at Zuo Li in confusion as he passed by him, a dragon charging forward. At this time, Rondo came to his senses and chased forward like crazy.

"Stop chasing! Stop fighting!" Rivers shouted, stomping his feet on the sidelines, can you guard Zuo Li!

Sure enough, Rondo obviously didn't hear the coach's reminder, and his speed was fast, but it was meaningless. The block from the side made Rondo hang on his left arm like a clown...

21!~

Zuo Li succeeded in beating the frame again!

Brutal, quite brutal!

Rondo was even thrown out by Zuo Li's remaining strength, sat down on the floor and began to doubt his life.

But no one cared about him. It was like a mantis acting like a chariot. There was nothing to worry about. What people cared about was that Zuo Li's desire to fight was a bit too strong.

In the next few rounds, Zuo Li was on the court. He was like steel when holding the ball. He kept challenging Garnett. He didn't go inside at all. He played like a big James...the more he hit, the harder he got!

"Zuo Li played really brutally. He attacked like this for several rounds in a row. It was really too fierce. This ball was like a bulldozer, oh no, a tank." Smith said.

In the camera, Zuo, who had just carried Garnett for a layup, stood at attention and waved his arms.

Garnett stood in confusion with his hands on his hips. What's going on? Isn't this iron-blooded brutality my label? Are you trying to steal it away!?

In fact, Zuo Li's performance tonight is not just to show his so-called brutal and iron-blooded side, it is all incidental. His tactics are very simple, that is: keep up with my rhythm, Wolf King!
