The Basketball Court Swordsman
Chapter 213: : Another army
Garnett's consecutive goals and Rondo's blocked shots did not make Henson irritable. People don't know what these two things have to do with Leonard. Is it possible that Henson still wants Leonard to defend Garnett?
People can't guess what Henson wants to do. This is exactly what Henson wants to see. Garnett scored consecutive goals, Henson is not worried, because Pierce has not yet opened on behalf of the Celtics offense actually has not fully opened. Don't worry about Rondo's blocking, because Chris Paul will not make the same mistake twice!
This time, when Rondo came across Paul again with his ferocious eyes, the No. 3 guard was obviously calmer.
He used his skillful ball-handling skills to avoid Rondo's pressing, and while observing the running of his teammates, he was ready to pass the ball.
"You coward, there is a kind of score on my head. Come on, come and try!" Rondo kept defensively while provoking his mouth.
Even the Celtics players will definitely admit that Rondo's mouth is really broken. Not to mention the opponent, even teammates sometimes can't stand his mouth. I believe Ray Allen has a deep understanding of this.
Although Paul wanted to squash the No. 9 in front of him, his reason finally defeated his impulse. After George used his superb running and a double screen to get outside the three-point line, Paul still played.
"Coward!" Rondo cursed, his saliva almost touching Paul's face.
But Paul still ignored it. He suddenly ran inward towards the penalty area, while Rondo raised his hands to block the pass of George Paul.
Paul suddenly stopped halfway through the run, and then ran back! Rondo wanted to keep up immediately, but unfortunately, this time he slammed into David West firmly.
"Damn it!" Rondo knew, the big thing was not good! Allowing Paul to get space to shoot is tantamount to suicide!
But what about knowing? When Rondo got rid of West and rushed forward, Paul had already made a three-pointer.
This time, Paul was extremely calm. From halftime to passing the ball and then running without the ball, Paul's feet accurately stepped on every beat, perfectly moving Henson's tactics to the court.
"Swipe!" Paul hit a three-pointer, and he proudly rushed Rondo than three fingers, "You should be responsible for the pass, man!"
"Wonderful response, I can see that Rondo's blocking has completely angered Paul! No wonder Coach Henson is not in a hurry. No, the 4-point advantage is almost instantly wiped out!" Mike Brin was calm. The coach and the point guard applauded. With Paul and Henson, the Pacers are basically "dual-core" fighting.
After that, the basketball was still hit by Garnett. Even though Paul has been provoking Rondo with his mouth, saying that he will always be the little brother who passes the ball to the Big Three. But Rondo still held back, did not run away, obediently dropped the ball into the penalty area. Although, Paul's playful smile made Rondo very upset...
"For the third time in this game, Kg tried to play in the low post. The Celtics have a very clear strategy, which is to use the recovered Kg to open up the situation. Will Coach Henson double-team? Uh... .. It still looks like there is no double-teaming."
Still no double-teams, Rivers was anxious. This is not like Henson's character. How could he watch Garnett score frequently in the penalty area and just sit back and watch?
How does Pierce get a chance without double-teaming?
Garnett was still the same as the previous two rounds. After receiving the ball, he did not attack directly, but looked around for a while. Obviously, Garnett is waiting for the double team!
However, the Pacers still stood still and continued to mark people!
"Stick to man-to-man defense!" This is what Henson has emphasized to the players countless times before the game. Want to give Pierce more scoring space? There are no doors!
In this way, Garnett started a hand-to-hand fight with Horford for the third consecutive time. He also used his own turn over jumper to score the ball for the third consecutive time in this game.
"With 6 points in a row, the first 6 points of the Celtics were taken care of by Garnett."
Garnett scored again, three consecutive goals. Henson believed that maybe even Rivers hadn't expected his feint point to be so stable today. Yes, Garnett is just a feint! He is eager to use his own recovery state to involve the defense, but Henson believes that every round such a melee in the fifth position, even Garnett, who has recovered, can't stand it!
Want to double-team? Not really!
Subsequently, Paul assisted Green and hit a three-pointer. Once Paul starts to calm down, the Pacers' offense will generally not be too problematic.
The point difference was still only 1 point, and Rivers waved his arms vigorously from the sidelines to signal the Celtics to launch a more fierce attack!
Garnett has already scored 6 points in a row in the same way. This time, Henson will double-team anyway!
When Rivers was secretly proud, he discovered that the Pacers' defensive position was still man-to-man!
This time, Horford was no longer polite with "Old Wolf". Before Garnett was in position, Horford went into a strong confrontation. He put his arm against Garnett's waist and pushed the Kg, which had cut six points in a row, to the outside.
Garnett's footing was not stable, and the basketball that Rondo had already raised was not passed out. He knows very well that it is very dangerous to pass the ball without a player in the post.
"Rondo!" At this moment, the Green Army 9 heard a shout, it was Pierce!
Without hesitation, Rondo immediately gave the ball to Pierce, giving the Celtics the real offensive point!
Danny. Can't run to death. Green immediately pushed forward, his body pressed against his body, leaving no room for Pierce!
"This is a real playoff-level defense!" Mike Brin couldn't help shouting.
Pierce was stuck in a hard fight and was pressed by the opponent outside the three-point line. This kind of defensive strength was never experienced by the Celtics in the Hawks.
Not to mention the huge offensive space planned by the Celtics. Today, if the pedestrians do not double-team, there will be no space at all.
Pierce had to retreat with the ball a few steps before getting rid of the entanglement with Green. He stretched out his hand to cover, and Garnett immediately raised it. However, at the moment the Celtics pick and roll, the Pacers completed their defense. Horford resolutely crossed to Pierce, leaving no room for the opponent!
At the same time, Green guarded Garnett around the front. The Pacers' starting 3D small forward almost sat on Garnett's knee, making Kg very annoyed.
"The Celtics' offense is in big trouble." Mike Brin pouted, no wonder Henson was not in a hurry, because the Celtics' offense... does not seem to be superficial. It went so smoothly.
In the end, the helpless Pierce had to hand the ball to Ray Allen under the strict defense of the opponent. The latter hastily hit the iron outside the three-point line, and the Celtics' offensive wave is interrupted!
Ray Allen is the least worried about Henson among the Big Three. Firstly, he is the oldest, secondly, he has an injury on his foot. Thirdly, and most importantly, Ray Allen and the other two giants, Rondo And the relationship between Celtic management is not pleasant.
In other words, Ray Allen has the lowest desire to win among the three giants. He no longer has green blood flowing in his body, and he is disappointed with everything in Boston. People say that this will be the "last season" of the Big Three of the Green Army, not groundless.
Ray Allen got crooked on his first shot today, and it seems to have fulfilled Henson's speculation.
The three-pointer hit the iron and formed a long rebound. This is simply a quick counterattack for the Pacers, or a hotbed for attacking in advance!
George leaped high to collect the rebounds, and then immediately pushed forward by himself, the Pacers instantly raised the rhythm.
Chase it, chase it desperately. Now the more fierce the Celtics chase, the more it will consume later!
In the end, George Garnett fouled for a fast break layup. Although George failed to score, he still got the chance to stand on the free throw line.
Rivers felt the pressure on his body soared because he knew very well that Henson saw through his tricks. He didn't double-team Garnett, just to watch out for Pierce!
Do not give the Celtics the space to score easily, which makes the Celtics have to spend more effort to fight each time they score. The Pacers are not afraid to consume the Celtics, after all, the Pacers have been resting for several days, and the Celtics were still playing against the Eagles two days ago.
Rivers feels that he has been smashed by the best coach again, and he has put the way of dealing with the Eagles on the Pacers. It seems that it is not suitable...
