Guard With a Knife

After Stephen Marbury came on the field, he had an immediate effect. When Lagalondo used the winding defense again, he directly changed direction and swayed a little space, then turned around suddenly and wiped out Rondo's defense.

Immediately, he rushed into the three-point line, and Paul Pierce had to take advantage of the trend to delay.

At this time, Marbury immediately sent the ball to Doug.

Duger, who was one step inside the free throw line, received the basketball, and Glenn Davis quickly and actively opened his arms to defend.

On the offensive end, Davis is a very good pick-and-roll player. His tonnage and his mid-range shot can help the point guard a lot.

But on the defensive end, his defense against the ball holder is relatively weak, especially when Doug uses a change-of-direction breakthrough on him, the poor lateral movement is immediately highlighted.

Doug strangled his defense almost in milliseconds and broke into the paint area. Kentrick Perkins quickly came to help defend. When he didn't dare to look back, Xun used a feigned upward shot to trick him, and then passed the ball to Milicic behind him. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Milicic jumped and dunked directly after receiving the basketball, but when he was about to smash the basketball into the basket, Pierce rushed from behind him crazily and threw him to the ground viciously.

The referee blows his whistle. The fans cheered thunderously.

"Obviously, now the Celtics want to show a bloodthirsty momentum. They use high-intensity physical confrontation, hidden and insidious small movements, and relentless fouls to intimidate opponents and make opponents fearful. "Charles Barkley said: "Under this level of defense, if you don't have enough experience in the playoffs, you can easily lose your game. This is a difficult test for the Knicks."

Milicic is obviously not used to this kind of game rhythm, even though he spent the first two years of his career with the Detroit Pistons, he saw firsthand how the Wallace brothers deal with opponents, but still... bam! boom! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Missed two free throws.

"Don't be disturbed. If you are timid, they will be even more unscrupulous." On the way back to halftime, Duge clapped his palms and made a loud noise, trying to boost Milicic's morale.

But Milicic still seems to have returned to the previous state of bewildered and overwhelmed European big white man.

His movement on the defensive end has become less focused, because he is always worried that Perkins will suddenly elbow himself in the ribs during a certain positioning process, or "inadvertently" caress the balls.

The result of this distraction is... a loss in the paint: As Pierce breaks through Gallinari's defense, he drives to the paint for the dunk. During the whole process, Milicic didn't even make a good hand movement to protect the basket.

Dug pursed his lips, and he heard Marbury teaching Milicic next to him: The Celtics are just a bunch of paper tigers, don't be intimidated by their grinning. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

But he knows that what Milicic needs more is not education, but a rest after the end of the game, let him sit on the bench and calm down, and do a good job of mental preparation before playing again.

Therefore, he winked with D'Antoni, indicating that Milicic will be replaced later.

And he made a gesture of '5'+'o', which meant very clearly that he hoped that Zach Randolph, who was wearing the No. 5o jersey, would be able to play later.

However, when Doug turned away, D'Antoni arranged for David Lee to warm up next to him.

The gesture made Isaiah Thomas glaring. However, surprisingly, Zach Randolph was very calm.

In fact, if you go back further... When D'Antoni announced that he was not on the list, he didn't stand up.

This is very inconsistent with the character he has shown in the past. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

He sat there with his eyes closed and meditating, with an attitude of indifference to the world, his shiny and dark forehead faintly glowed with Buddha's light.

Meanwhile, Doug was fouled by Kentrick Perkins again on the pitch.

Although Doc Rivers roared from the sidelines, fans in the arena also booed and cursed angrily.

But the referee couldn't turn a blind eye, after all, Snoopy fell hard at his feet.

"Snoopy is a complete Iverson-style suicide attack. Look at the ball just now. He received a pass from Marbury at the free throw line, and then quickly used a turn to get out of the way. Then, he was reasonable. One step outside the impact zone, I started to take off and hit Perkins abruptly, and pulled up the rod to seek more body contact without any attention to the center of gravity. When he fell to the ground without protection, I even Worried that the floor will be smashed." \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

TNT host Earl Johnson gasped and sighed: "What a tough guy!"

Swish!

In the uniform sound of 'ki11-snoopy' in the audience, Doug made a free throw.

Immediately, Doc Rivers had to be replaced by Leon Bowie... Perkins had already suffered 2 fouls on Doug, and he had to rest.

The Knicks replaced David Lee.

Doug has nothing against David Lee.

But he thinks...Zach Randolph is the better option.

However, he didn't say anything about it. Just silently... Shua!

The second free throw was made.

With the arrival of Leon Bowie and David Lee, Doug and Glenn Davis moved to the center position at the same time. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Leon Bowie was quick to teach Lee a lesson with his athleticism, though. David Lee is a very hard-working and progressive player. Before Dug arrived in New York, he was a three-good student in the eyes of New York fans, and he was also the hope of New York's revival. But...he has a big problem in defense. Whether it is single defense or assist defense, he seems to have more than enough energy.

So, Leon Bowie quickly crossed his defense with a counter run. Lagalondo delivered the basketball almost at the same time.

When Doug saw Bowie coming at a gallop, he immediately tried to turn around and help.

But the fat Glenn Davis clung to him, nearly wrapping his arms around Doug's neck ... and the referee didn't blow his whistle.

In the playoffs, the penalty scale is much larger than in the regular season.

So, boom!

Leon Bowie dunks easily and ignites the enthusiasm of the North Shore Garden Arena. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Waves of sound came.

Back at halfcourt, Doug pulls Glenn Davis to the three-point line, Marbury hits the paint in a straight line, gets double-teamed and passes to David Lee...David Lee's shot goes over Leon Bowie The interference missed the basket.

"Actually, the Knicks' tactics have been played out. But...David Lee is a bit too nervous in the playoffs for the first time." Earl Johnson emphasized in the commentary: "In the playoffs, experience is very important."

"Why not replace Zach Randolph?" Charles Barkley mentioned Fatty Lan again. Barkley has always admired him. In the dark times, Barkley has always believed that he can play the sky.

The game is still going on.

With Doug hitting a three-pointer from outside the three-point line, the Knicks finally managed to save some of the situation. Because the Bostonians had to expand part of their defensive attention beyond the three-point line, and as the defense expanded beyond the three-point line, the Celtics, who lacked the two defensive anchors of Kevin Garnett and Kentrick Perkins, There was an immediate vacuum inside the Walters. Marbury and Jeffries broke through the penalty area consecutively, winning a balance of power for the team. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

But the Celtics are still mastering the rhythm, and the Knicks have no tendency to reverse.

When there are 2 minutes and 30 seconds left in the first quarter.

beep!

Isaiah Thomas reaches out for a timeout.

"David Lee and Gallinari are off. Zach Randolph and Quentin Richardson are on!"

Isaiah Thomas couldn't wait to put on his direct line.

Then, he began to arrange the offensive and defensive tactics of the position. He expanded the rhythm of a single attack to 20 seconds. He completely overturned D'Antoni's previous concept of fast attack and defense. He hoped to seek hit rate and defensive control.

But that's exactly what the Boston Celtics are good at.

Pause back.

The Knicks' offensive and defensive tempo plummeted, and the Boston Celtics also slowed down. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Doc Rivers had a chuckle on the sidelines, and the Celtics were least afraid of this kind of rhythm of grinding one ball. This kind of rhythm has high requirements on the tacit understanding of the players and the overall tactical quality, and this is the advantage of the Celtics.

But that's not the Knicks' forte.

Although the five players of the Knicks can slow down and play offensive positions, the tacit understanding between them is undoubtedly lacking compared to the Celtics who have been polished for two seasons, and their offensive patience is not as good as the Celtics. Whether it's Zach Randolph or Quentin Richardson, or even Stephen Marbury, they are not good at making multiple consecutive ball transfers.

This leads to the Knicks' offensive efficiency is not high. Coupled with the fact that there is no outside single-handed player, the defect is magnified in the positional battle, so... the Knicks still failed to reverse the decline.

However, Doug and Zach Randolph had a tacit understanding of offense and defense in the interior. In addition, the shooting percentage of the Celtics' rotation players is not too high, so that the point difference has always been maintained at around 10 points. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

In the 4th minute of the second quarter, the rotation time is over.

D'Antoni quickly replaced Milicic, David Lee and Gallinari. Replacing the physically limited Marbury, Quentin Richardson and Zach Randolph.

Duger is in charge of the No. 1 position in this lineup. In the fast break and defense, he used organization and series to stabilize the team's point difference.

By the end of the first half, 46:57.

The Celtics led by 11 points entering the second half.

"Hey, Mr. Duke Dog, where did your arrogance go? Why did you hit like a chihuahua with its vocal cords cut off today? It's too fragile."

At the end of the field, Lagalondo passed by Duge triumphantly, and threw down trash talk in contempt: "You are really boring like this."

Doug ignored his arrogance and walked towards the player tunnel. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Along the way, Celtic fans continued to greet him with foul language, even mixed with a lot of racist remarks.

These things are constantly igniting the anger in his heart.

His fists became tighter and tighter, and his eyes became more and more determined.

When he returned to the locker room.

Isaiah Thomas and D'Antoni had already stood in front of the tactical board and had a fierce dispute.

"Your running and bombing routine will not have any effect on the Celtics. Only I can lead the Knicks to victory. Boston lacks Kevin Garnett. They have a natural fear of battles. Just now Snoopy We've had a great chemistry with Zach, and if I get full control in the second half, I can easily tie the 11-point deficit and seal the win."

Before Thomas finished speaking, D'Antoni immediately sarcastically said: "Positional warfare is not just talking. We don't have super scorers. Slowing down the pace can only be a dead end. Now, what you should do is to pack your bags and return to New York immediately. ..."\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

The two chatted endlessly, from arguing at the tactical level to digging each other's black history.

Isaiah Thomas claimed that D'Antoni never proved himself in the playoffs and that he was just a fancy regular-season coach.

And D'Antoni said that Isaiah Thomas is simply a mediocre person with great ambition and lack of talent. He doesn't even have the most basic tactical concepts. He only knows how to make the team into a mess.

The atmosphere in the locker room was messed up by the two of them, the players all looked at them blankly, no one knew when they would stop, and then gave a countermeasure for the second half. But judging from the intensified emotions of the two, they did not have the awareness to put the game first. They just want to seize the opportunity to control the team.

At this time, Duge, with a livid face, finally couldn't bear it any longer.

He stood up and said loudly, "Enough!"

"It's time to stop this ridiculous and stupid infighting!!"

D'Antoni and Isaiah Thomas look at him at the same time.
