The opening three-pointer in basketball

It was the Timberwolves' turn to attack. Amid the cheers of the fans, Reggie held the ball through halftime.

Bai Yi then started running, and Rondo and Ray Allen hurriedly chased Bai Yi.

Pierce imitated George's restrictions on Reggie and tried his best to change directions and place himself between Reggie and Bai Yi.

Obviously Ray Allen is not George, and Reggie is not a truly incompetent player.

He also started running, but his dribbling was very stable. When Bai Yi ran out of the open space, he immediately passed the basketball.

Bai Yi caught the ball and then activated the three-point skills throughout the game.

Then he didn't adjust and just raised his hand for a three-pointer.

The basketball flew up, crossed an arc, and flew into the net.

The ball went in.n

This goal did not affect the Celtics.

On the next ball, Pierce ran out of the open space. Rondo passed the ball to the latter. Morris Jr. chased after him, but Pierce had already shot. He went directly to the mid-range and scored.

It can be seen that Pierce is in very good condition today.

As a former offensive kaleidoscope, Pierce even won the All-Star Three-Point Shootout Contest last season.

Various scoring methods emerge in endlessly.

If he feels good, he can be really scary.

Bai Yi smiled and didn't say much.

Just like that, the Timberwolves and Celtics come and go.

For the Timberwolves, Bai Yi mainly shot three-pointers on his own, and the Celtics couldn't keep up, so Bai Yi constantly got open three-point opportunities.

The Celtics used Ray Allen and Pierce to attack alternately.

Both of these guys have very good hands.

But of course it's not comparable to Bai Yi, and Bai Yi almost always shoots three-pointers.

The Celtics are not so crazy. Even Ray Allen can shoot from mid-range.

Under such circumstances, the Timberwolves increased their points faster.

Finally, at the end of the first quarter, the Timberwolves caught up with the initial point difference, and the two teams had just tied.

Timberwolves 32:32 Celtics.

Players from both teams returned to the bench.

Adelman immediately praised the players' performance, especially the dialogue, and he praised it even more.

He then said: "Guys, the rhythm of the game we played in the first quarter was very good. Next, we should be like the first quarter, play fast and don't slow down."

"The average age of Celtic players is older, and their biggest flaw is their poor running ability."

"We have to seize this and keep attacking."

Having said this, Adelman looked at Bai Yi.

Whether the Timberwolves' offense will work or not is completely up to no good.

Bai Yi showed no mercy today and seemed very confident in his own touch.

Adelman didn't bother to say anything more. He was very relieved about Bai Yi.

On the other side, on the visiting team's bench, Rivers did not blame the players. He knew very well the Timberwolves' explosive scoring power, and it was not an easy task to stop the Timberwolves.

He was very satisfied if he didn't fall behind in the first quarter.

But the Celtics are not without hidden dangers.

That's because the first quarter was too fast.

Playing this way is naturally conducive to when the feel is good, and it is less likely to interrupt the rhythm of the feel.

However, the Celtics players are too old, and Rivers is worried that if this continues, in the second half, third or fourth quarter, the Celtics players will not be able to handle it.

Of course he was not unprepared.

He whispered his concerns to Rondo.

Rondo nodded, "Coach, I have thought of this problem a long time ago. We will focus on Kevin in the second quarter, so take Pierce and Ray Allen off the court and take a rest."

There is nothing wrong with the fact that the core Celtics players are older.

But the Celtics also have their advantages.

For example, their lineup is strong enough and their substitute lineup is good.

For example, their interior substitutes include Buss, Wallace, and Davis.

They also have quality players like Bradley and Pietrus on the outside.

As far as the team's second lineup is concerned, the Lakers and Heat are not as good as the Celtics. In recent years, they have really recruited a lot of good players due to the Big Three's voluntary salary cuts in recent years.

After a while, players from both teams came on the court, and the Celtics made substitutions. Pierce came off the court and Pietrus came on.

Ray Allen goes off and Bradley comes on.

Bai Yi saw it in his eyes, and he understood that if he wanted to win this game, he needed to exert his strength continuously and not relax even a little bit.

Then the game started, and the people defending Baiyi became Bradley and Rondo.

Bradley is also a veteran, and his speed is similar to that of Ray Allen.

So in terms of Bai Yi, it has almost no impact.

He can still score like crazy.

The Celtics' main offensive direction has changed, becoming an inside game dominated by Garnett.

The combination of Perkins and Garnett is obviously better than Tucker and Pekovic.

Tucker is only 1.98 meters tall, while Garnett is 2.1 meters tall.

Garnett is not a person without shooting ability. He started to make crazy mid-range shots.

Tucker couldn't stop him at all.

The confrontational ability he is proud of has no effect on Garnett.

For example, the younger generation of insiders, such as Love, although they also have jump shooting ability, their confrontation is poor.

Let Tucker guard Love, and Love will feel uncomfortable.

As for players of Garnett's generation, when they grew up, the league still advocated confrontation. Under such circumstances, they were not afraid of confrontation at all.

Unable to score in confrontations, they simply cannot stand out.

So Garnett can be said to have perfectly suppressed Tucker.

All of his shots were hard-hit field goals.

The hit rate is very high, reaching about 80%, which is very scary.

Fortunately, the Timberwolves had Bai Yi. His three-pointers were equally terrifying. Although his shooting percentage was not as good as Garnett's today, he still made one more three-pointer.

Under such circumstances, the scores of the two teams increased alternately in the second quarter.

At the end of the first half, the two teams were evenly tied, Timberwolves 62:62 Celtics.

The Celtics scored 62 points at halftime today, which was definitely their top-five performance this season.

In the past, the Celtics averaged only about 90 points per game.

Today, the average points per game increased by more than ten points.

This shows that the Celtics feel really good today.

Bai Yi also feels good. In the first half alone, he already scored 36 points.

However, the Celtics' three giants scored a total of 40 points in the first half, and Baiyi was still four points behind.

If calculated according to system tasks, he needs to lead the Big Three by ten points, which is still fourteen points short.

Bai Yi was thinking about the system task. After the first half of the game, he hurried to the lounge.

The DJ at the scene felt something was wrong with Bai Yi's face, and said worriedly: "Today the Celtics' three giants all feel good. It is a major challenge for us. Others should also step up. Not everyone can rely on Bai."

Reggie, Tucker, and others were a little confused, so they didn't know what the DJ meant.

Is Bai Yi dissatisfied with them?
