Basketball's most talented forward is on the left
Chapter 658 The toughness of the green army is really beyond imagination
Leading by 19 points at halftime, the tiebreaker situation unfolded in an unexpected way.
To put it simply, no one expected that the Celtics would lose like this. According to Barkley, they had absolutely no power to fight back.
"Beverley's performance was in sharp contrast to Rondo's." As an ESPN commentator and Lakers star, he would naturally not be polite to Celtics players.
"Beverley gets more and more frustrated. The whole world knows what happened before, but he obviously was not knocked down. He dedicated a wonderful defense in the first half. He made Rondo, the best defensive team of the season, appear
A little embarrassed."
More than just an embarrassment, Rondo's 3 points, 3 assists and 5 turnovers in the first half were considered the worst half of the playoffs in his career, and he was indeed the key to the Celtics falling behind by a big score. Who made the Green Army actually lose this season?
With Rondo as the team's engine, if your engine is broken, can the car still run?
Some commentators have already begun to educate fans about the largest score difference in tiebreaker history.
Although according to common sense, if both teams enter the tiebreaker in the playoffs, it means that the two sides are equally matched in strength.
So many fans think that there is no biggest score difference in the tiebreaker. In fact, this is not the case. There has been such a record in history.
Quite a few!
For example, in the 2008 playoffs, the Celtics defeated the Hawks with 34 points in the seventh game. Not only did they avoid the embarrassment of being defeated, but they also set a record for the largest point difference in a game in team history.
Of course, 34 points is not the largest point difference in a tiebreaker. Here I have to mention the eternal pain of Chinese fans. In the first round of the 2005 playoffs, the Rockets lost to the Mavericks in a tiebreaker by as many as 40 points, eventually leading 2-0.
They were reversed and eliminated, which was also the beginning of the tragedy for the Yao-Mai team.
Although the referee on duty later entered the game directly and admitted that he had deliberately messed with the Rockets, things could not be changed. After so many years, it still occupies the "throne" of the most humiliating tiebreaker in history.
But tonight, there seems to be a glimmer of light?
…
"Snapped!"
Away team locker room.
Garnett hammered the cabinet hard, shattering the cabinet's facade.
The old wolf king vented his anger in this way.
"We will be the laughingstock." Pierce said expressionlessly.
"It sucks! We shouldn't be at this level! On the court, we are just like children! Being played with! Being played with!" Garnett turned his head and roared.
The sound was particularly clear in the quiet locker room.
None of the Green Army players said a word. Although they knew they should not give up at this time, the huge gap of 19 points still made them helpless and desperate.
If it was an ordinary team, they might have given up. This huge sense of loss and gap cannot be smoothed over with a few words.
Fortunately, they have Li-My chicken soup is the existence of beef fork!
"Kevin, I know you're angry, and so am I." Rivers chose to comfort Garnett, the most angry Wolf King: "But there's still half a game, right? We haven't lost yet, and the game isn't over yet.
To make a comeback, you know, we need your power."
A few simple words made Garnett feel so excited that he wanted to go up and fight the Knicks for another 300 rounds now!
After appeasing Garnett, Rivers turned to Rondo, who had the biggest problem in the first half.
"The first half has passed, don't take it to heart."
"I know you want to prove yourself, but have you ever thought about it, Beverley is just a nobody, what's the benefit if you beat him? You are an All-Star, the best team, and you are in the league.
Star, what is he!?"
Rondo's eyes lit up when he heard this!
yes!
Why should I fight with him? Who is he? I am an All-Star!
"I understand, coach! I will fight back, please continue to trust me!" Rondo pinched his fingers, fighting spirit rising again.
After taking care of these two, Rivers basically saved most of the morale. People said that Rivers was a chicken soup coach who only knew how to give chicken soup and had no tactical ability. In later generations, people like Pierce openly mocked Rivers for his poor tactics, but
It has to be said that sometimes chicken soup is needed to refresh the mind, and Rivers does have something.
Although there isn’t much…
Not far away, the luxuriously decorated home team's locker room had an atmosphere that was as good as that of the away team. Even though they knew they were still far away from victory at halftime, they shouldn't be too excited, but they still couldn't restrain their emotions.
Even Zuo Li felt a little relaxed. After all, a 19-point advantage was already very scary under such defensive intensity.
And the Knicks are also blooming a lot. Zuo Li scored 17 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks, and 1 steal. Curry scored 12 points with 4 three-pointers in the half, and Beverley scored 2 points, 2 steals, and 2 steals.
Assists can be called a defensive master...
This kind of performance cannot be overturned!
"Even if the Celtics want to chase such a point difference... it won't be particularly easy... right?" Zuo Li thought to himself.
However, at the beginning of the second half, Zuo Li had a deeper understanding of the Celtics' difficulties.
…
The 15-minute break was a bit difficult for the fans at the scene. Knicks fans could not wait to fast forward to the end of the game and the time when the team won the trophy.
Han Xue even took advantage of these ten minutes to almost finish writing the newsletter, just waiting for the game to end before sending it out as soon as possible.
CCTV cameras even started to enjoy it. After the game, I went to ask for Zuo Li's autograph for my daughter.
However, at the beginning of the third quarter, their mouths opened wide.
Of course, the Celtics started with 5 players, while the Knicks rested on the left side to defeat the six, and David Lee came on with the second team.
No one thinks that the German coach is arrogant, why can't the main players rest with 19 points?
However, the Celtics did not give up or be impatient as everyone expected, and it took a full 21 seconds to score the first goal!
Pierce recovered two points for the Celtics.
Subsequently, Ke Liu dribbled the ball at the top of the arc. The Celtics suddenly took a big delay and gave Ke Liu a point to David Lee. David Lee forced the dribble to prepare for a breakthrough. Garnett blocked it with his long arm, and Pierce intercepted the ball!
Rondo dribbled the ball and completed a layup. This was also his second sports goal of the game.
Although Ke Liu made a three-pointer, the Celtics played steadily and used the three minutes of the Knicks' second team to launch a 10-3 spurt, narrowing the point difference to 12 points in one fell swoop.
The German coach called a timeout and replaced tonight's starter with Curry and Beverley playing double point.
But this time, in the face of Beverley's harassment, Rondo's mentality was extremely calm. Even though he was 2 meters away, he still didn't throw it. Instead, he used a high pick-and-roll to score inside and assist Garnett to complete the dunk!
At 10 points, the point difference no longer seems out of reach.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Zuo Li stood up and made two strong attacks under the basket to prevent the Celtics' scoring climax. However, with Ray Allen's three-point shot against Curry in the last 10 seconds, the Celtics still won in the third.
At the end of the third quarter, the point difference was reduced to 7 points!
This is a score that can be chased!
The suspense returns!
