The Way of the Center
Chapter 354: Time Bomb
Jay always thought that he could keep calm in the face of Garnett's provocation, but after completing the attack just now, he realized that he was so wrong. E novel Ww ㄟ W.ん1XIAOSHUO. COM
He really didn't have any aggressive behavior, but once he fell into the inside to play singles, it was already the best proof that Anjie was influenced by Garnett. It's just that An Jie's back attack ability is too strong now, so he didn't pay the price for his loss of control.
After completing the attack, An Jie glanced at the bench, where Ricard was smiling at himself. This guy didn't directly speak out about An Jie's predicament, but used an attack to make An Jie deeply aware of his problem. This approach is more effective than him reminding a thousand or ten thousand sentences off the court.
Young people are still vulnerable to emotions. Garnett is a provocative master, and few people can turn a blind eye to his words and deeds. If there is, it is also an old world like Marcus Camby.
After the attack just now, An Jie felt a sudden clarity in front of him. He found that his field of vision was not limited to the three-second zone of 4.88 meters x 5.8 meters. Now the entire half of Td North Shore Garden is an opportunity in An Jie's eyes!
"Gerald! Pay attention to the pick-and-roll behind you!" This time the Celtics' offense, Rajon Rondo has been staying on the outside for a while. Obviously, he is waiting for his teammates to settle down. But now the only person who has run for a long time and still can't get rid of the defense is Paul Pierce.
An Jie thought to himself, this offensive arrangement was most likely made for Pierce!
So when he saw Brandon Bass secretly stepping forward to support, Anjie reminded Gerald Wallace loudly. So Pierce and Bass' off-ball pick-and-roll cooperation this time did not succeed.
Before, Ray Allen and Pierce were able to score frequently because Anjie focused all his attention on Garnett and ignored others.
But now, An Jie's thoughts are extremely clear. He knows exactly what to do, what to guard against, and how to command his teammates to defend. Garnett inside is just a part of this game, but not the whole of this game.
At this time, Garnett couldn't spout trash talk. When someone competes with him, he will get more and more excited. But now An Jie seemed to have forgotten him suddenly, and ignored him at all. If Garnett still swears in his own way at this time, he will only make himself look like a fool.
In the third quarter, the Trail Blazers attacked for the second time, and Anjie still stopped his footsteps near the free throw line. Garnett didn't dare to defend close at all. He knew that if he did that, Anjie could clean himself up with just one step.
Can't defend close,
Small movements are naturally useless. Just as Garnett was still thinking about how to defend Anjie's breakthrough, Anjie passed the ball again.
This time, it was Aldridge who caught the ball. Under the light of Anjie, Aldridge, a low-key guy, will always look very inconspicuous. But in fact, his statistics in each game are very good. It's just because An Jie is so dazzling that people often ignore him.
Today, facing the pocket insider Bass, who is only 2.03 meters tall, Aldridge's offense is even more relaxed. Anjie made this just-right pass, and Aldrie, who was running, caught the ball and shot it. This rhythm simply made Aldridge feel very enjoyable. This is a simple and effective classic cooperation between him and An Jie, which they have repeated hundreds of times on the training ground.
"Swipe." Garnett's thinking has not yet ended, and Anjie, who is holding the ball, has not moved forward. But the Trail Blazers' offense ended in this extremely short period of time, and it ended with a successful ending.
"Coach Ricard's tactics seem to have worked. The Trail Blazers completed these two goals very well in the third quarter. The only regret is that we didn't see the match between Anjie and Garnett again. Intense collision. If in the first half, the offense of both sides was fierce and brutal, then now, the offense of both sides can be described as beautiful and exquisite.” As a spectator, Ke Fan is able to clearly see the ever-changing situation on the field Chu.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Coach Rivers used up a timeout in advance. He knew that at this time, the Blazers must not be allowed to gain momentum. Maybe he should adjust his strategy in response to the opponent's changes.
"Don't shrink! Yes, I know that I told you to shrink your defense just now. But now, I ask you to return to a tight man-to-man defense!" In the first half of the game, because An Jie fell into a strange circle of singles, he opened up The statistics of the rest of the Raiders team are very dismal. This is also giving Rivers confidence, otherwise he would not dare to shrink the formation without authorization.
"Huh." Rondo, as always, ignored what Rivers said. This guy will not obey any coach, because he always feels that he is smarter than everyone. Rivers' overthrowing his previous decision over and over again made Rondo look down on this guy with a duck voice.
Rivers gave Rondo a fierce look, but now that the game is in progress, he doesn't want to argue with Rondo now. But what is certain is that Rondo's subsequent performance may not follow what Rivers meant.
Now, Rivers' defensive strategy has obviously been broken by Anjie. He thought that An Jie would continue to fight with KG inside in the second half, but now it seems that the situation is quite different.
The timeout ended quickly, during which coach Ricard of the Trail Blazers did not arrange too many special tactics. The only thing he told An Jie was: If your teammates don't have a chance, just tear a hole for me and find a chance for yourself!
The meaning is very clear, organizing the offense is An Jie's first priority. But when necessary, An Jie also had to use his own breakthrough to force the opponent into a gap.
So after some adjustments, the two teams that were unwilling to give up the game easily came together again. On the Celtics side, with Rondo in control of the rhythm, the offense has always been unhurried and steady.
But under Anjie's command and scheduling, even if Rondo's passing skills are exquisite, it is impossible to send the ball to his teammates through the defenders.
This time, all the members of the defensive Trail Blazers did a very good job. They stuck to their matchups and switched defenses very quickly and decisively. Rondo circled around the three-point line, but still didn't find any gaps for passing the ball. Coupled with the entanglement of the desperate Matthews, the pressure on Rondo is even greater.
Finally, when the 24-second attack time was about to end, Rondo saw a chance of Ray Allen's running position. He raised his hand and prepared to pass the ball. He was confident that he could see the needle and pass the ball.
"No, you can't pass!" Garnett yelled, but this time he yelled at his teammates.
Rondo's ground pass was very fast. Of course, the gap left by the Blazers for Ray Allen was also very small.
Seeing that the basketball was about to pass through that gap, but at that moment, a big palm was placed between the basketball and Ray Allen.
"Wesley Matthews' running was very active. He blocked Rondo's pass at the last moment. The Blazers counterattacked and Felton advanced very fast!"
Raymond Felton immediately ran to the frontcourt after seeing Matthews stealing the ball, so Matthews can now let the Blazers complete the offense with only one long pass.
However, passing the ball is not Wesley Matthews' strong point. The most common thing this black guard does is to shoot a three-pointer after receiving a pass from his teammates, rather than his teammates receiving his pass to shoot.
Therefore, this long pass was a bit too big. When Felton received the ball, he had already walked to the basket, and there was no room for three steps. At the same time, Rondo and Ray Allen have chased back to Felton's side, and they both raised their hands high, trying to force Felton to make a mistake.
Felton has been in this league for almost ten years anyway, and a simple double-team will not let this guy mess up.
He passed between the legs of Ray Allen and Rondo and sent the basketball out. And it was An Jie who followed up and received the ball!
Garnett mustered all his strength, ready to block Anjie from behind with a full leap. After Anjie received the ball, he took two big strides to dunk, but when he was about to take off, he flicked his wrist and distributed the ball to Aldridge, who was in the middle distance at a zero-degree angle.
Felton and Anjie's consecutive breakthroughs have attracted all the Celtics' defense to the basket. Therefore, after receiving Anjie's point, Aldridge has no defensive teammates two meters away.
Will Aldridge waste this opportunity? Won't! Anyway, he is also the second head of the Trail Blazers and An Jie's most capable assistant!
Aldridge held up the basketball and threw it. Judging from the flight trajectory of the basketball, it seems that there is a high probability that it will be a hollow ball.
"Beautiful continuous cooperation, Ann's pass made the Celtics hard to defend. Aldridge made the ball easily, and the point difference was further opened. The Celtics must be more cautious. "
"I said that the ball can't pass!" Garnett snarled at Rondo mercilessly, while Pierce protected Rondo with his head hanging behind him like protecting a child.
"Okay kg, don't be angry, this is a common thing, who hasn't made a mistake?" The relationship between Pierce and Rondo is not very good, but he knows that the game is not over yet. If the Celtics disintegrate from within, the game could really be over early.
Don't look at Rondo with his head down and silent, but in fact he has greeted the Garnett family several times in his heart. Rondo just didn't dare to fire at Garnett, which doesn't mean he is a good boy.
The more you say that the ball cannot be passed like this, the more Rondo wants to prove himself with such a pass.
"No one is smarter than me, no one knows basketball better than me!"
As a result, Rondo made a mistake for the second time in a row. This time, it was An Jie who robbed him.
This is a lob pass, and the target is Garnett, who just yelled at him. If the pass is made and Garnett scores because of it, then Rondo will definitely ridicule Garnett for a while.
It's a pity that Anjie's defensive range is different from other insiders. If the ball needs to be defended by someone else, maybe Rondo will really succeed. But what about An Jie? Sorry, you're only adding another mistake to yourself.
"Damn it!" Garnett glared at Rondo viciously. This time, even Pierce just shook his head helplessly. Garnett has always been a grumpy guy, he often scolded his young teammates bloody. And Rondo is not the first time to challenge Garnett's authority.
The self-inflated Rondo feels that he seems to be able to replace the position of the aging Big Three, but unfortunately, at least for now, this team still belongs to the three old boys.
After that, Rondo was replaced by Rivers. Rivers has long disliked Rondo, and now he just found an excuse to replace him.
In the third quarter, the better and better Blazers naturally suppressed the worse and worse Celtics. The shouts of Anjie commanding his teammates filled the entire stadium, but the Celtics' bench and players on the field were silent.
8o to 72, the point difference is getting bigger and bigger. At the end of the third quarter, the Celtics had fallen behind by 8 points.
This game was originally a confrontation between Anjie and Garnett. Unexpectedly, Ricard's tactics changed the rhythm of the game. This led to the contradiction between Rondo and the team, which also invisibly affected the result of the game.
In the fourth quarter, Anjie's ears finally became quiet. Garnett stopped his babbling trash talk. It was too late for him to get upset with Rondo, and he didn't have time to think about the vocabulary to deal with Ainger.
What about Anjie? When the Celtics used man-to-man close defense, he used his breakthrough to score a lot of points for the team. Garnett's current strength is not as good as An Jie's, and now he has encountered these things that affect his emotions, and KG has nothing to do with An Jie.
The more the Celtics played, the more chaotic they became, and the worse they played. Right now, their offense is disorganized. Bradley is not a guard who can control the offensive rhythm at all, especially for a team like the Celtics, let alone anyone who can control it.
Pierce and Ray Allen could still score a few points in the chaotic battle, but compared to the clear offensive thinking of the Trail Blazers, what Pierce and Ray Allen can do is obviously very limited.
I thought that the game would last until the last moment to decide the winner, but when the game time was still 3 minutes away, it was over. The game has lost its suspense.
Rivers replaced the Big Three who were exhausted and out of breath. When the Big Three got off the field, they high-fived everyone, except Rajon Rondo.
The fans of the Td North Shore Garden Arena returned disappointed. They had better leave the stadium earlier to avoid traffic jams later...
"Beep!" When the red light on the backboard came on, Garnett looked up at the big screen. 104 to 92, the Celtics played a high drive and low drive game at home.
1o points and 4 rebounds, this is Garnett's data for the whole game. How many points did Angie score? Garnett didn't want to watch it, because he knew that Anjie's data was almost humiliating to him!
If possible, now, Garnett hopes to solve the problem of Rondo that stinky boy first. Blazers and Anjie? This time, let's just let you barely pass.
