Chapter 254

Amidst the cheers of the audience, Pierce made an extra free throw, and the Celtics chased to 11-15.

The two teams played back and forth for many rounds. The defensive end was desperate, and the scoring efficiency was quite low.

With Su Yangsheng suddenly Lei Allen, forced to score and caused an additional penalty, there were 4 minutes and 18 seconds left in the first quarter.

Rivers beckoned, the Celtics took the lead in making adjustments, Tony Allen and Glenn Davis came on, replacing Ray Allen and Perkins, and on the Clippers side, Steve Blake came on, replacing Bay Len Davis.

Su Yang stood on the free throw line with huge boos, made a steady hit and added a penalty, and the Clippers led 20 to 14.

The offense and defense switched, and the Celtics kicked off the bottom line in the backcourt.

Tony Allen received the ball, took it all the way to the top of the arc, and handed it to Glenn Davis.

Davis took the ball and ran to the right, handing it to Rondo, and the other three retreated below the free throw line.

Rondo stopped the ball at the top of the arc to take over the overall situation. Seeing that Tony came out from the bottom line on the right with the help of a screen, he immediately raised his hand and passed the ball, and Tony received the basketball, twisted his hips and rushed into the paint area, facing Su Yang around the screen to intercept, Hit the ball back.

Garnett caught the ball at the free throw line and immediately turned and moved to the right, but Glenn Davis had no chance to catch the ball. He hurriedly stopped and turned around, holding the basketball with both hands, towards Pierce who was standing on the left sideline. pass.

It's a pity that Garnett is no longer in his peak form a few years ago, and his movement speed is a bit slow.

Barnes flew out, snatched the basketball from the middle, and threw it to Su Yang who was standing in front.

The fast break started suddenly, Su Yang dribbled the ball and ran away. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Tony chasing him, and immediately rushed forward with big strides.

The two arrived at the free throw line in the frontcourt in the blink of an eye. Su Yang didn't dare to overdo it, so he jumped directly with the ball.

With a bang, he dunked with both hands, and the Clippers led 22 to 14.

Tony picked up the basketball and retreated out of bounds, and directly made a long pass to the left sideline. Pierce received the ball and made another long pass.

But Rondo received the ball at the top of the arc and did not rush to attack, but raised his hand to direct the movement.

In this way, the Kai team lost the opportunity to make a fast break, so they had to land on the ground and put up an inverted A formation.

The Clippers started the 23-point defense as usual, Rondo had no three-pointers, and Tony had neither three-pointers nor breakthroughs.

The Celtics were embarrassed on the spot. Rondo turned and threw the ball to the left wing. Pierce held the ball with both hands up to observe.

Big Baby Davis came up to the elbow to catch the ball, turned to face the pinch, and threw the ball 45 degrees to the right.Rondo just arrived at the position, and immediately divided the right corner after receiving the ball, but Tony did not run to that position ahead of time.

The basketball flew out of the baseline, the referee blew his whistle and called for a violation, and the Clippers got the ball in the backcourt.

Taking advantage of the dead ball, the Celtics made adjustments, and Rasheed Wallace came on to replace Garnett.

"If the stats are there, the Celtics should have gone almost two minutes without scoring."

"They were too cautious in some rounds. In fact, the opportunity has already appeared, so there is no need to play so strictly."

In the transition between offense and defense, Blake dribbled the ball to the right 45 degrees, and made a hand-to-hand cover with Su Yang who circled out.

Su Yang took the ball and went straight to the top of the arc. With the help of Jordan's cover, he completely threw off Tony Allen and chased him.

The big darling Davis rushed to grab the delay, Su Yang stopped and turned around and threw the ball to his right elbow.

Jordan took the ball and waited for it, while Blake ran past the corner.

Rondo was blocked from catching up, and Pierce hurriedly defended from the left corner, but Blake started early with the ball.

boom!The two bodies collided in the air, and Blake carried Davis to force it in, causing a foul at the same time.

"Grass!" Pierce was very upset, the referee actually patiently stepped forward to explain why the foul was committed.

Su Yang was dumbfounded, thinking that the home court advantage of the Celtics was too outrageous, and the referee took the initiative to take care of his emotions.

Boos ensued, and Blake stood calmly at the free throw line, making an easy hit and adding a penalty.

The Clippers' lead became 25 to 14, and the game situation showed a one-sided trend again, and the atmosphere in the audience was very tense.

Rivers didn't call a timeout either, and let the game continue, and the Celtics kicked off from the baseline in the backcourt.

Rondo took the ball across the center line, raised his hand and threw it to the right wing, and went straight to the left corner.

Tony held the ball high, clearly wanting to pass it to Wallace at the waist, but Su Yang, relying on his lack of a three-point threat, unscrupulously retracted the flanking attack in advance, he turned helplessly and threw the ball to the top of the arc, The situation became Davis holding the ball high.

The Clippers immediately expanded their defense, and once again put on a 23-zone defense formation, like a cross-river iron chain.

Davis didn't have the ability to break through high positions, and turned slowly to the left, looking like he wanted to pass to Pierce.

But his movement speed was a beat slower than Garnett's. Blake swooped and stretched out his hand, cutting it in the middle.

Davis hurriedly twisted his hips to catch up, and his steps were so chaotic in a hurry that he tripped himself.

Blake got rid of it easily, raised his hand and threw the ball to Su Yang who followed up on the right, and the Kais had no one to catch up.

Amidst boos all over the court, Su Yang rushed to the basket, looked around and found that there was no threat, took off on the spot, and folded the buckle.

27 to 14, the North Shore Garden was so quiet that only the sound of sneakers rubbing against the floor was heard, and the children did not dare to cry.

The Celtics did not ask for a timeout, and Rondo took the ball across the center line and continued to direct the back play tactics.

After a lot of tossing, the basketball still couldn't pass in. Rondo took the ball again and passed it to the left sideline.

Pierce took the ball, bowed and lowered his center of gravity, making three-threat moves, stepping up and testing frequently, which was extremely confusing.

But Barnes didn't pay attention to it at all, and he just took two steps back, arrogantly throwing shots and not letting go.

With such a simple move, Pierce seemed to be a different person, but he didn't dare to jump up and make a move.He chose to pass the ball to Davis who was standing in the bottom corner, but Davis did not dare to make a feint and passed the ball back to him. The situation was quite embarrassing.

Voices of dissatisfaction gradually sounded in the arena, and Rivers had no choice but to get up and ask for a short timeout.

"We have to shoot decisively. There is still a long time in the game. Don't have a loser mentality just because you are behind. This is our home court, North Shore Garden..." Rivers poured chicken soup, and the generals of the Celtics were confused.

The short timeout ended quickly, and the Celtics re-kicked off the front line, and Michael Finley replaced Pierce.

Beep!The referee whistles.

The basketball was sent to the bottom corner, Rondo raised his hand to help, and took advantage of the opportunity to use Finley to cover and move out.

The quality of the cover was extremely high, and Blake was unable to control, but he walked around the cover calmly.

Barnes didn't rush forward to delay, and Rondo didn't hesitate to stop and shoot two points.

when!Basketball hits the basket and hits the iron.

Jordan jumped high and caught the rebound, Su Yang caught the ball and pushed forward, and the Clippers launched a counterattack.

The two arrived at the top of the frontcourt side by side, and cooperated tacitly in the pick-and-roll, and Su Yang went left to make a strong breakthrough.Tony Allen was unable to catch up for a while, Davis's speed couldn't keep up with Su Yang's rhythm, and Finley was forced to shrink from the bottom corner.

Su Yang was not afraid at all, he still jumped with the ball and lobbed against Finley to hit the board.

boom!The basketball bounces into the net.

Beep!The referee's whistle blew.

Two points are valid, and there is an additional penalty.

Su Yang was knocked down and fell to the ground. Just as he took Jordan's hand to stand up, he heard boos all over the place.

He immediately raised his hands and shouted: "Come on, let the booing be more violent..."

The additional penalty was still hit, and the momentum of the Celtics plummeted. Only Garnett frequently reminded his teammates not to give up.

After the first quarter of the game, the Clippers led 32 to 16, and all the statistics were overwhelmed by the Celtics.

In the next two quarters, the Celtics regained their offensive status and once narrowed the point difference to single digits, but could not limit the Clippers.

In the end, the Clippers won 111-102 and led 3-0 in the finals, only one step away from the championship.
