Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

On May 25, Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals will continue at the home court of the Boston Celtics.

As the oldest arena in NBA history, North Shore Garden has witnessed too many teams, and the fans here are the best at using their own methods to make visiting teams feel "at home".

For example, tonight, they all put on white uniforms instead of the green of the home team. Looking around, it was a terrifying sight of white.

There was also a huge slogan on the stands: "beat ny, beat zuoli!"

The fans at the scene firmly believe that this method can help their team.

Indeed, the Celtics are also the best team in the league at home. In 2008, they relied on their home court advantage to reach the finals. This year, they also defeated James here. Now, they also hold a 2-1

The advantages.

They are bound to win this game.

Rivers' relaxed smile before the game seemed to tell people that he had indeed found a way to block the left wing against the Knicks.

Try their best to block the connection between Zuo Li and others, leaving Zuo Li alone and trapped in singles, just like they did against the Lakers and Kobe in 2008. This is the answer the Celtics found.

Moreover, they did very well in the previous three games. If it weren't for bad luck, they should be thinking about how to celebrate winning the Eastern Conference championship.

Rivers thought so.

Although Rivers knew that such an idea was not a good idea, not to mention that luck itself is a part of strength, and talking about life without luck is simply being a hooligan, let's just say that the Knicks played very well in the first game.

But there is no way. With the victory now, he cannot allow him to think otherwise. After all, who can resist the temptation of eliminating the Knicks? If this is won, all fools know what it means. Do you believe in a 1-3 comeback?

Stop making trouble, even God wouldn't dare write this script.

And if they win this game and successfully win the series, they will kill James and Zuo Li in succession. Whether they kill Kobe or two-time MVP Nash in the finals, their championship will be the most valuable in history.

.

That's really wonderful~

With this scene in his mind, Rivers watched the two teams complete their appearances.

The starting lineups of both sides have not changed.

This is great!

Seeing Curry, Rivers even wanted to applaud. This thin boy is Rondo's best prey.

"I didn't expect that D'Antoni was tougher than me." Rivers glanced at the serious-looking German coach and suddenly found a confidant.

It's just that unlike him who still fucks the main force to the death, D'Antoni has changed.

And the reason why it's still Curry is, of course, that they have special arrangements.

jump ball!

Gave...

Zuo Li got the ball, handed it to Curry and then passed down. It looked no different from the previous three games.

However, just when everyone was waiting for Zuo Li to go to the low post, an unexpected pick-and-roll came out, and Zuo Li came out and went to the three-point line near the bottom corner!

"What do you mean..." Rivers was a little confused. Why did Zuo Li pull him out? No more insiders!?

want!

of course yes!

But try another way!

The ball was given to Randolph. Randolph hit Perkins with his back. After two plays, he turned around. Garnett hesitated and did not cover up. Randolph successfully scored two points!

"Oh, Zach Randolph will fight first...this is interesting." Director Zhang touched his chin and felt that things were not simple.

Of course it's not simple. This is the biggest change the Knicks have made. In the past, Zuo Li went to the low post and Randolph was the one to pull away. But today and yesterday, he was the one pulling away!

Of course Randolph can go to the low post, and his low post skills are even very good.

In the last round of the Western Conference playoffs in 2011, he led the Grizzlies to complete a black eight miracle against the Spurs, who were still at their peak at the time. Throughout the series, Randolph shot 50% from the field and averaged 21 points per game. 5 points, 9.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists. All statistics ranked first among the two teams. He almost single-handedly defeated the Spurs inside.

In the first round of the playoffs of the 2012-13 season, the Grizzlies and the Clippers met in close combat. As a result, the Clippers, who had two great inside players in Griffin and DeAndre Jordan, were defeated and eliminated directly 2-4. The combined scoring averages of Griffin and DeAndre Jordan are even less than Randolph.

After 6 games, Randolph averaged 20.8 points and 8 rebounds per game, shooting 56.8% from the field, while Griffin only averaged 13.2 points and 5.5 rebounds per game, with a shooting percentage of 45.3%. Jordan was even worse, averaging 3.7 points and 6.3 rebounds per game. , hit rate 45.5%.

Randolph's low-post offensive skills are perfect. He will get stuck deep under the basket. After receiving the ball, he may directly attack with his back to the basket, or he may turn around and face the basket.

When facing the basket, he likes to use probing steps, combined with shooting fakes, to shake defenders, and find shooting gaps during dribbling confrontations. Moreover, he can shoot with both hands and has a soft touch, which makes him really difficult to guard.

In the Knicks, he made great sacrifices for Zuo Li. He usually waited for Zuo Li to pass to him before playing, and then worked hard to do the dirty work of defense.

But if he doesn't fight, it doesn't mean he can't fight!

Tonight, he was righted and Zuo Li covered him!

This is offense, let’s look at defense.

The first time Rondo got the ball, he found that Curry took two steps back and stepped on the free throw line to guard him.

Rondo: "..."

What do you mean, you look down on my shooting?

Indeed!

Rondo's free throw shooting is notoriously bad, but his shooting is even worse.

He is a rare defender in the league who specializes in assists. His assist ability is not much different from super point guards like Nash, but his shooting ability...

Nash said not to touch porcelain, but Rondo also deserves to shoot?

Yes, I don’t know how to mention the 15% three-point shooting rate after three games, so D’Antoni simply stopped letting Curry defend him!

"Just prevent him from breaking through, don't worry about anything else!"

So there was this scene. Curry let up two meters and let Rondo shoot.

But do you think he dares to shoot? Even if he dares, does the coach dare to let him shoot?

Don't dare!

Rondo hesitated for a long time and then passed it.

But the effect was not good. After all, Curry went so deep. Even if he couldn't defend, the space was too small, and there were Zuo Li and Randolph inside, so Perkins came out to catch the ball.

Then again, Pierce missed the shot and rebounded to the left.

Attacking again, Randolph attacked Perkins with his back, but Perkins couldn't stop him and had to hit him. Randolph made two free throws.

On the defensive end, it was another low-quality ball. Chandler quickly completed the steal with quick eyes and hands, and Rondo committed a tactical foul!

At half court, Randolph once again asked for position. This time Garnett finally couldn't help but double-team, and Randolph directly passed to Zuo Li outside the three-point line.

Whoosh!

The knife falls from the hand!

Zuo Li directly made a three-pointer!

"It's time to show you how strong I am without injury!" Zuo Li raised three fingers.

Then, Randolph scored again. This time, facing the rushing Garnett, Zuo Li calmly passed the ball!

Curry catches the ball at the top of the arc and shoots directly!

"Stephen Curry~~~!!!"

Three points scored!

10-0.

Zuo Li and Curry bump into each other passionately!

The youth storm of the Knicks begins!
