NBA basketball rhythm monster
Chapter 74: Visiting the Nets
In the playoffs of the 2002-03 season, the New Jersey Nets severely humiliated the Boston Celtics.
Although Pierce performed well, averaging 29 points per game, he was unable to resist the bombardment of the Nets' Big Three consisting of Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin and Richard Jefferson.
The Celtics were cleanly shaved off in the second round with a 0:4 record.
What?
Didn't you say that there were two Boston twins last season? What about Antoine Walker?
In this series that the Celtics lost, Antoine Walker's statistics dropped from 2,075 in the regular season to 1,774.
In terms of shooting percentage, it is only 41.5% two-point shooting rate and 35.6% three-point shooting rate.
His stray shots directly hurt the team. In this round of playoffs, Walker averaged 17.6 shots per game. Not to mention his extremely low efficiency, his defense was not very good.
And what about his direct opponent Martin? The No. 1 pick in 2000 was very good at bullying power forwards who were weaker than him. In 1993, it was an overall increase compared to the 16.782 data in the regular season.
Moreover, Kenyon Martin's defensive professional attitude is much better than Antoine. Except for being beaten by Old Deng in the finals, he hardly suffered any pain in the 02-03 season.
This is why the Cardinals didn't bat an eyelid when they gave up on Antoine Walker.
And now, on October 31st, the Celtics will challenge the team that eliminated them last season on the road. To a certain extent, this is also a revenge battle for the Celtics.
In this atmosphere, there is almost no need for head coach O'Brien to do too much pre-game mobilization. The entire Celtics team's fighting spirit is already high, especially Pierce and other players who participated in last year's Eastern Conference semifinals.
.Now they are as silent as a volcano about to erupt, and the anger contained in them can be felt from a distance.
Even Danny Ainge, the team's general manager, came to New Jersey with the team for this game. After Lee Lo's historic debut in the previous game, the entire management had a great deal of confidence in the Celtics' prospects for this year's season.
.
The purpose of Danny Ainge's visit this time is to examine how the team will perform against last season's old enemy with Li Luo.
The Reebok team and the team that filmed Li Luo were prepared on the scene early. Now, they no longer have to worry about Li Luo's billion-yuan contract being lost. Even the company's top executives are already imagining Li Luo's backing of the vast market.
What a sensation Luo will cause when he becomes an All-Star.
In the visiting team's locker room at the Continental Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Pierce, who always likes to chat before games, seemed a little too quiet during the warm-up for this game. Not only him, but almost all Celtics players were also affected by this.
Affected by the depressive atmosphere, the atmosphere became very solemn.
Li Luo looked at all this, and his heart was filled with the desire to win this game. He now desperately wanted to cause a scene in New Jersey.
At the beginning of the game, Kenyon Martin took the lead in getting the ball. This result had long been expected by Li Luo. The Celtics center was not good at jumping, and he was not as good as Kenyon Martin in fighting for the ball.
Dancing man.
Jason Kidd got the ball and led the Nets to the Finals for two consecutive seasons. Although both failed, Kidd's prestige as the core figure in the team has greatly increased, and he can be said to be the best in the team.
He does reward his teammates with his performance. Like Nash, players who play with Kidd can often improve their statistics. But there is one difference. Kidd's defense is much better than Nash's and his skills are more advanced.
Balance. Before the concept of combo guard became popular in the league, Kidd was obviously a better player than Nash at this time.
Li Luo returned to defense and was about to block Kenyon Martin's position to prevent him from getting too close to the penalty area. But as soon as the two of them came into contact, Kenyon Martin gave Li Luo an elbow in the ribs. Kenyon Martin was very surprised.
The thief took advantage of the referee's visual blind spot and was not called a foul for his secret rubbing behavior.
Luo Li was almost completely unprepared for Kenyon Martin's move, which hit him so hard that he even let out a muffled cough.
"Hey, here! Kidd!"
Li Luo was knocked out of his original defensive position by Kenyon Martin's sudden elbow. Kenyon Martin immediately found an opportunity to get rid of the entanglement and immediately ran to the weak side.
Kidd, who always had an eye on all directions and an ear on all sides, immediately noticed his teammate's good position, and a lob pass was directly into the hands of Kenyon Martin.
At this time, Luo Li had no time to stop Kenyon Martin from taking off. Up to now, his ribs were still aching and his strength was affected. He could only raise his hands high and stand firmly on his feet to interfere with Kenyon Martin a little.
.
I saw Kenyon Martin take a step directly after receiving the ball, straighten his legs and leap high in the penalty area. He hit Li Luo with a one-man dunk.
"MD!" Li Luo, who was hit by the impact, let out a national curse in his heart at the moment of contact.
Needless to say, in the small draft year of 2000, Kenyon Martin's physical fitness can really be called a well-deserved No. 1 pick. As a true inside thug, he can run, jump, and dunk a lot.
, playing ball is full of passion and enthusiasm and highly enjoyable to watch.
But Li Luo, who was dunked by him, looked very embarrassed. After being hit, Li Luo staggered back several steps before he stabilized his body. Although he did not fall to the ground due to the dunk, he was definitely a
A shameful thing.
Kenyon Martin's flamboyant and explosive character, who took advantage of him, did not forget to mock Li Luo at this time:
"Boy, welcome to the NBA!!"
After saying that, he gave Li Luo a fierce look and ran away.
"What a bastard!"
The anger in Luo Li's heart had been completely ignited by Kenyon Martin's shameless behavior.
As a basketball player, Li Luo has long been mentally prepared to experience a series of frustrating things such as being dunked, knocked down, and killed. There is nothing to say about this. In the basketball world, strength is respected. Occasionally, there are
It's normal for the car to roll over. If it really happened, Luo Li would just admit defeat.
Lao Dengtou is so strong that he has been blocked 1,483 times in his entire career. He ranks first on the list of blocked shots and no one says he is not good enough.
But Kenyon Martin's behavior is a bit shitting on your head, regardless of what you mean by borrowing paper. It is true that pole vaulting in the pit is too much.
"Are you okay? Li." Defender Atkins stepped forward to catch the ball. Seeing Li Luo grimacing in pain, he asked with concern.
"It's okay, Chaji, you will find a way to pass two more passes to me later." Li Luo said with cold eyes.
It seems that Li Luo got really angry today and had to fix Kenyon Martin's dancing boy.
