Basketball's most talented forward is on the left

In the first half, the Celtics were whistled for a total of 13 fouls, 7 of which were committed against Zuo Li, which accounted for more than half of the total number of fouls. As we all know, the number of fouls alone sometimes cannot fully reflect the situation.

The intensity of the game, such as the penalty scale in this game, is considered to be "as long as you can't be beaten, you can keep fighting", so you can imagine the intensity of the defense Zuo Li encountered.

But even so, Zuo Li still scored the highest score in the team and maintained a shooting percentage of more than 50%. His 14 rebounds in the half were even more crazy. No wonder Barkley would swear so bluntly, because Zuo Li

It's really hard to stand up.

Although the Celtics next door don't have a high shooting percentage because they focus on the defensive end after all, he is obviously very suitable for this style of play. All the giants can find their own scoring windows in such a cruel offensive and defensive rhythm.

In terms of distribution, the Celtics are obviously more reasonable. Five players all scored around 5 points, and 7 players scored.

No wonder everyone feels this way, that is, if it weren’t for Zuo Li, it’s hard to say who would be in the lead.

Director Zhang also expressed concern that the Knicks need more people to step up in the second half, otherwise it may be like the third game, Zuo Li fell into an empty cut.

But Zuo Li is not worried about this in this game. Although he scored the highest, others also scored, such as Zach, who also scored 6 points tonight, Curry on the outside, and substitute Dragic both scored 4 points.

Six 3 points, it can be said that the team has blossomed both internally and externally. Under this level of defense, this kind of fire support is already very good.

Moreover, unlike the Celtics, they rotated seven players in this game. In the first half, only Rasheed Wallace on the inside and Tony Allen on the outside played for a while, while the Knicks rotated with 9 players. Anderson

, David Lee, Ke Liu, and Dragic came on the bench in the first half. In terms of physical exertion alone, the Knicks won.

"Rivers is still too stable." Zuo Li said with emotion in the locker room, looking at the halftime statistics sent by the assistant coach.

When D'Antoni heard this, he straightened up immediately. "In terms of hiring people, I am no longer the same person as before."

Once upon a time, the German coach did not like to use substitutes, but now, D'Antoni has obviously improved a lot. Under the influence of Zuo Li, he has understood that sometimes better preserving the physical fitness of the main force is the reason for his rise at critical moments.

.

Rivers may just not understand this truth, which is why he was overturned wherever he went. Zuo Li has always speculated that the reason why the Celtics were overturned by the Cavaliers in history was because they were exhausted. In the fifth game, the average was 35

It's a wonder that old men who are still over 40 years old can hold up after playing for 40 minutes.

As for the Clippers, he was largely responsible for Chris Paul's inability to touch the floor of the Western Conference Finals. Every critical game, he wanted Paul to play the entire game without even wanting to rest for a minute. Although he left some famous scenes,

What’s more, the underworld scene has been eliminated every year.

Poor Paul, he met Scott first and then Rivers in his career. This is how his glass attributes came about.

And this year is the final glory of the Big Three. It’s really unbearable to use it like this!

However, this desperate style of play is at least useful for now. They still brought huge trouble to Zuo Li and the Knicks.

In the third quarter, the Celtics played purely as the main force. Except for Zuo Li and Curry, everyone else on the Knicks side was replaced. Beverley also appeared again, taking on the important task of defending Ray Allen.

It is generally believed that the best thing the Knicks have done in these games is to restrict Ray Allen. His scoring average and three-point shooting are not as good as expected.

This is all thanks to Zuo Li, because Zuo Li knows very well that even if Ray Allen feels bad, it is all fake and he is pretending to be dead. At critical moments, whoever leaks will know, so the Knicks never dare to relax on him.

defense.

Even if you can't play well, you have to have someone follow you the whole time to prevent Ray Allen from opening up.

The Celtics continued their own philosophy, which was to suppress Zuo Li crazily and never let Zuo Li have a chance to play in singles.

So the hand-to-hand combat continued...

The eyes of both sides are getting redder and redder!

The fans at the scene were mobilized at some point, standing up and shouting attack, attack, defense, defense!

The bloody and bloody battle continues!

…

Crawford was feeling very unhappy tonight. The two teams were making more and more moves, forcing him to constantly adjust his penalty scale to ensure that the game could be concluded smoothly.

If we purely follow the rules, one of the two teams will count as one, and they all have to go back to fishing!

But he obviously can't do this, because after blowing off like this, he will probably be the one fishing.

But at this time, he really couldn't bear it anymore!

Because on the court, Zuo Li, who took the ball inside and turned around, was once again trapped in a tight siege. He couldn't score at the critical moment, but with his excellent jumping and confrontation, he squeezed Garnett away with one shoulder, grabbed the second rebound, and dunked it!

However, Tony Allen slapped Zuo Li and pushed him out!

"Beep beep beep!"

"Celtics, flagrant foul!" Crawford made his own judgment while running. He directly gave a flagrant foul, and because Tony Allen already had a technical foul, Crawford

He made a direct gesture of appearing!

This was the harshest penalty tonight, but the fans cheered loudly and even scolded the referee much softer.

Even Barkley said: "Crawford finally found his whistle!"

There is no way, the Celtics made too many moves in tonight's game. Although the Knicks are not small either, who told the Greens to target Zuo Li.

Tonight, Zuo Li had 7 blood marks on his two arms and received countless black elbows and black feet. I don’t know how many times he was as cruel as Tony Allen. Many times, it was enough to call him malicious, but they were all ordinary fouls.

.

Can the fans not be angry?

Although Zuo Li is too tough, even if he was defended like this, he would be like a normal person. If it had been someone else, he would have been broken!

But you can't keep doing this.

Fortunately, it was called off this time, Tony Allen also graduated directly, and Pierce returned to the court.

Zuo Li made both free throws, and then from the sideline, Zuo Li assisted Curry to score a goal.

74-70, the Knicks lead by 4 points!

Celtic requested a timeout.

At this time, there are still 2 minutes and 21 seconds left before the end of the game.

The Knicks had the advantage, but on the first shot after the timeout, Rondo made a three-pointer that changed fate and betrayed the decision of his ancestors!

"omg!!!"

"This is, Rajon Rondo!? He made a key shot! The two sides were only one point apart!"

Barkley and everyone were dumbfounded, Rondo actually threw in a three-pointer!

This time the Knicks did a good job of defending. Ray Allen was locked up and couldn't catch the ball at all. Chandler moved forward, and Pierce couldn't do it either. Garnett was already holding his knees and panting, following Zuo Li for more than 40 minutes.

, the lifespan has been shortened, and there is really no way to attack at this time.

In addition, Rondo was left open two meters, and there was no room for breakthrough inside. Standing inside was Zuo Li, who had 20 points, 20 rebounds and 7 blocks.

Seeing that Rondo was getting cold, he had no choice but to close his eyes and focus, and take a three-pointer!

Scored!
