NBA: Starting with James Harden

Chapter 55

.............

The Celtics took the lead in the final quarter.

Ray Allen ran out of space in the corner with the help of Garnett's screen.

Haywood was slow to switch defense with Barea, and he didn't keep up with Ray Allen in time.

Ray Allen received Rondo's pass and shot a three-pointer in the corner again.

90 to 93.

The Celtics finally overtook the score.

The fans in the North Shore Garden cheered one after another.

The Mavericks put too much pressure on them today. Now that the score has been caught up, everything will be back on track.

Carlisle on the sidelines kept walking, and the situation on the court made him feel a little distressed.

Li Zhen was suppressed by the Celtics in the second and third quarters, which was the key to the Mavericks' passiveness.

Is there still hope in the fourth quarter? Carlisle didn't have much confidence.

Li Zhen didn't care about the score being overtaken, but urged Haywood to serve.

Haywood served the ball to Li Zhen.

Li Zhen took the ball across half court.

The Celtics still sent Rondo and Ray Allen to double-team Li Zhen.

The Mavericks' other finishing points were not as efficient, and even if Li Zhen passed the ball in time, they were not very confident of scoring.

Li Zhen simply stopped passing the ball, and dribbled the ball with an accelerated step, breaking through the double-team between Rondo and Ray Allen. He dribbled past two opponents successfully!

The Celtics' defense was too close, and no inside player came to defend Li Zhen. After Li Zhen broke through the double-team, there was a large area in front of him that was not defended. He stopped suddenly, jumped up and shot a three-pointer!!

Rondo chased up and tried to block Li Zhen from behind, but Li Zhen took the opportunity to get closer.

"Bang!"

After Li Zhen made the move, he leaned against Rondo and then fell to the ground!!

""Beep!!"

The referee decisively called a foul.

At the same time, the basketball went into the net.

93 to 93, Li Zhen had one more free throw!

This was a 3+1.

Seeing Rondo being hit by Li Zhen with a 3+1, the cheers at the scene stopped instantly.

This rookie is really awesome.

"Away silencer"

"Li Zhen hit the ball very well."

"It’s too arrogant. He just wanted to make Rondo commit a 3+1 foul!"

"I've never seen a rookie who plays basketball with his brain so much."

"Li Zhen is almost like an old basketball player who has played in the league for ten years."

Mavericks fans on the Internet were talking about it.

Li Zhen's shot really boosted morale. The Mavericks had been constantly chased by the Celtics and had just been overtaken. Everyone was under a lot of pressure, and Li Zhen stepped up to relieve the pressure.

Barea and Marion went over to pull Li Zhen up, patting Li Zhen on the back and butt as encouragement.

To be honest, Barea never thought that Li Zhen would one day become the boss of the Mavericks.

Barea always believed that the best outcome for Li Zhen would be to inherit his legacy and become a water dispenser manager in the Mavericks. After all, not everyone can wave a towel with the same passion as Li Zhen.....

Now Barea has gradually changed his perception.

Li Zhen will take over someone else's mantle, but not his, but Kidd or Nowitzki's.

Li Zhen will be the future of the Mavericks!

Standing on the free throw line.

Ignoring the boos from the audience!

Li Zhen made the free throw steadily!

94 to 93.

External interference does not have much impact on Li Zhen, his willpower ensures that he can always stay focused!

After the free throw, Li Zhen went to talk to Haywood and Dampier about the positioning problem.

Li Zhen's rebounds are still a little short, he needs to get more rebounds.

Dampier and Haywood now listen to Li Zhen's command, and both agreed.

The Celtics attack.

Rondo tried to pass Li Zhen with the help of Garnett's screen, but failed.

Li Zhen entangled Rondo.

Rondo wanted to pass the ball, but was cut off by Li Zhen at the moment of passing the ball!

Li Zhen showed a very tough defense in this shot.

Li Zhen's awareness ensures that his defensive ability is still there.

Rondo was a little discouraged.

Li Zhen dribbled the ball across half court.

Before Ray Allen's double team came up, Li Zhen dribbled the ball from the top of the arc and dived to the right, passing Rondo in one step.

Before Garnett came up to block the shot, Li Zhen adjusted his rhythm and shot another three-pointer!

Hit!

97 to 93.

Three-pointers hit consecutively!!

The sound at the scene was quiet again!!

The fans at the North Shore Gardens didn't know how to watch Li Zhen.

Li Zhen's scoring looked so easy.

He easily passed the opponent and shot a three-pointer with ease.....

Everything seemed smooth and effortless!

Garnett roared at Rondo:"Focus, don't let him pass you so easily."

Rondo himself was speechless. Li Zhen caught his defensive loopholes too accurately. He was just a little hesitant and was passed by Li Zhen!

Rondo dribbled over and went straight to Pierce.

Pierce backed Marion and tried to push him in with his back.

Marion did not suffer a loss. His defense was in place. Pierce did not have many opportunities. He passed the ball to Garnett. Garnett received the ball and adjusted his steps. He pushed Dampier away with his shoulder force. He jumped up one step before the three-second zone and slammed the ball with one hand!!

97 to 95.

The roar of the wolf king, Garnett roared at Li Zhen!!

Dampier's defense seemed vulnerable to him!!

Li Zhen ignored Garnett and threw it forward with force after receiving Dampier's serve!!

The Celtics' defensive attention was all on Li Zhen.

Li Zhen's long pass was aimed directly at Marion who was running fast!!

Marion's fast break was very fast, and Li Zhen's pass was also very accurate. Marion took the ball and took a step forward to score easily!!

99 to 95.

""Get back on defense faster, don't be in a daze!" Rivers yelled.

The Celtics had the ball.

The Mavericks suddenly pressed the entire team.

Davis was in trouble with his serve.

Davis was afraid of a five-second violation, so he hurriedly passed the ball to Rondo, but was directly broken by Marion, who successfully intercepted the serve with his long arms.

Marion passed the ball to Li Zhen who was rushing in.

Li Zhen rushed in, kicked the ground and jumped up to throw the ball high. Davis' defensive attention had been attracted by Li Zhen, and his position had been lost.

Haywood caught Li Zhen's pass with both hands and pressed it into the basket!

Alley-catch!

101 to 95.

The Mavericks regained the advantage through another offensive!!

Rondo was very angry and passed the ball to Pierce.

Pierce passed the ball to Rondo again. Rondo used Garnett's screen to turn around and break Li Zhen's pressure defense!

Li Zhen saw that he couldn't steal the ball and quickly retreated.

The Mavericks set up a 3-2 zone defense, mainly defending outside shooters!

Rondo still passed the ball to Ray Allen!

Ray Allen received the ball and shot another three-pointer!!

Li Zhen interfered with this ball

This time Allen's three-pointer finally didn't go in. He caused too much trouble for the Mavericks today.
