In Boston's North Shore Garden Arena, a sea of green people rises and falls.
The cry of "Beat LA" was deafening and filled the sky.
In the season opener, the Bostonians swallowed a loss in Los Angeles.
Bird and his teammates, who have been holding back for half a season, are waiting to return to their home stadium to clean up the Los Angeles people.
But he never expected that today's game, his "focus object" Zhou Chen did not appear in the starting list!
This really puzzled Byrd!
Zhou Chen was the one who slashed 60 points above his head in the opener!
So much so that after the game began, Bird continued to shout at the players on the Lakers court:
"Without Zhou Chen, you can't win!" Go home and eat the dumplings! "
It is worthy of being the "king of forcing kings", with both the style of pretending and the strength of pretending!
After the opening, Bird felt hot today.
Back on the court he knows best, his three-point shot seems to break through the basket!
First on the outside, facing Worthy's defense, hit three three-pointers in a row!
Then there was singles Magic Johnson, who hit a layup!
After the opening game, the Celtics directly beat the Lakers 15-2!
Forced the Lakers to call the first timeout of the game.
Zhou Chen originally thought that after this timeout, Riley would let him play, but until the timeout ended, he did not receive a notice to play.
Even the magician secretly asked Riley next to him, do you want Zhou Chen to let him play?
After all, now Zhou Chen's offensive ability has become an indispensable part of the Lakers' offensive system.
I saw Pat Riley hesitantly glance at Zhou Chen, who was drinking, and then waved his hand to let the other players play.
Zhou Chen continued to watch from the wall.
After the game resumed, the Lakers finally broke the team's scoring drought after Abdul-Jabbar hit a basket hook.
But the Lakers' offense is still not improving.
Bird continues to use his unparalleled offensive talent to ravage the outside of the Lakers.
Zhou Chen also looked more and more energetic off the field, and simply asked the assistant next to him for two plates of peanut rice, and the more he drank, the more vigorous he drank.
But when I saw the second quarter of the game, I found that the more I watched the game, the more boring I became, and I didn't know when I slept.
At the same time, the game on the field has taken on a one-sided situation.
The Lakers' outside offense today was a mess, with Magic and Worthy shooting surprisingly low.
Worthy was 0-of-3 from three-point range, 1-of-5 from two-point range, 3 points, 1 rebound, and 4 turnovers.
And the Magic also played erratically today, scoring only 5 points and 4 assists so far.
With just over 3 minutes left in the second quarter, the Lakers scored 45 points, while the opponent Celtics had already scored 64 points!
If it weren't for today's veteran Abdul-Jabbar, who shot 10 of 13 and scored 22 points alone, the Lakers would probably be more behind at the moment.
On the Celtic side, the best performer is naturally Larry Bird.
So far, in less than two quarters, Bird has scored a game-high 25 points, including 5-of-5 three-pointers, and his hands are extremely explosive.
You know, in the case of Zhou Chen not on the court, the rest of the Lakers team only made a total of 7 shots outside the three-point line today, and only hit 2 shots.
The gap in scores on the field is getting bigger and bigger, and this Christmas battle is not as fierce as people think.
In the North Shore Garden Arena, the sound of "let Zhou Chen play" suddenly sounded.
At first, there were only a few scattered people shouting, but later this voice became louder and louder, and it almost became the collective appeal of the entire audience.
The NBA commentary on the scene also surprised this rare scene in NBA history.
"It's a spectacle that the home fans want to have a player from the away team playing!"
In addition to the low level of viewing of the game itself, part of the reason is that a small number of fans specially bought tickets to watch the Zhou Chen game.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Chen was pressed on the bench by the coach this time.
During the timeout, Pat Riley received a call from Lakers general manager Jerry West.
On the other end of the phone, West's voice was extremely angry, claiming that if the coaching staff did not let Zhou Chen play, resulting in the final loss of this game to a mortal enemy, then they would seriously consider whether the head coach's position was competent.
This phone call directly gave Riley a shocking thunderbolt.
Originally, he just wanted to use this game to establish his authority as a coach in front of this rookie who did not know the sky.
Unexpectedly, it directly alarmed the management of the Lakers, which he did not expect.
He thought that with the Lakers' deep roster depth, it would not be a problem to deal with the Celtics.
Actually, he couldn't have been more wrong!
The reason why the Lakers lost to the Celtics last season was that the weakest position was the shooting guard on the outside.
Now he traded Scott away, and he didn't let Zhou Chen play!
The entire Lakers outside offensive firepower, there is no player who can match Bird.
Pat Riley finally realized his mistake, but as a high-flying manager, he did not directly communicate with Zhou Chen.
Instead, let the assistant coach wake up Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen was sleeping soundly, and suddenly he was woken up in a daze.
He was very unhappy in his heart, and directly said in front of everyone: "Don't bluff me!" How can I play without the manager's order to play!
"Besides, the team was almost 20 points behind before they remembered me? Why did you go early?
Although Zhou Chen was drunk and hazy, his words were logical and clear, and the words were heartfelt.
Hearing this, the rest of the Lakers players were stunned!
This is clearly not giving the coach face!
Under normal circumstances, with both the head coach and the assistant coach present, the assistant coach naturally cannot give orders alone.
Zhou Chen must also know that it was Riley's meaning to let him play again!
But I didn't expect this rookie to be so arrogant and directly refused to play?
Seeing this, Riley also had no way to continue to bite the bullet and let Michael Cooper continue to stay on the field!
After the timeout, the remaining minutes of the second quarter were played, and there was not much suspense!
Although the Celtics have sent a full bench to fight, they are still playing well!
This game, they have already played crazy!
The score gap on the field continues to widen!
At halftime, the score on the court changed to the Celtics 70-46 Lakers!
The Green Army, playing at home, has extended the difference to 24 points!
