NBA: One S-level skill per game

Chapter 60 Celtics crazy counterattack
At the same time, Li Chen paid close attention to Pierce. After the first half, Pierce scored 9 points.

The Clippers lead the Celtics by 65 points 47-18.

Li Chen made 20 of 10 shots and 25 points, including 1 of 1 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws. His shooting percentage was as high as 56.52%.

Li Chen was very efficient in the first half.

Alvin Gentry nodded, and then said seriously: "Yes, there is no need to rush to attack in the second half. We will play steadily. This victory belongs to us."

Then Alvin Gentry looked at Li Chen again, his eyes softened, and he felt as if he was holding it in his hand and was afraid of melting.

Celtic rest area.

Head coach O'Brien looked at the dejected players and angrily said: "Cheer up, we haven't lost yet."

Hearing this, the players all looked at O'Brien, but their expressions were full of hesitation.

As the leader of the team, Pierce encouraged loudly: "Yes, the coach is right, we did not lose, only 18 points, only 6 three-pointers."

Everyone was left speechless by Paul Pierce. What you said was simple, only six three-pointers. Let us take a look at your six three-pointers.

At this time, Coach Brian coughed and said Shen Ran: "In the second half, pick up the rhythm and take more outside shots."

Jim O'Malline is down to his last ditch.

He was powerless, he couldn't defend the three of them, what should he do, he couldn't let four players defend one person.

After thinking for a while, Jim O'Brien said again: "There is no need to have a psychological burden, we will lose this game." He played a cautious role.

Hearing this, the Celtic players all looked a little ugly.

They are not fools. How can they not know the meaning behind the coach's words?The coach looks down on them!

Sometimes a person is a very conflicted creature. If you give him chicken soup for the soul, it will have the opposite effect. If you sarcasm with a gun and a stick, he may be able to display terrifying strength.

At this time, the Celtics players have such a mentality. At this time, their faces are ugly, and they secretly swear in their hearts that they will win this game.

The third quarter begins.

Paul Pierce made a jump shot with the help of a pick-and-roll breakthrough to make the score 65-49.

Then the Clippers attacked.

Li Chen still carried out his own style of play in the first half, but after playing twice, Li Chen found himself wearing the vest of a little blacksmith.

Li Chen passed the ball decisively, but what drove him crazy was that his teammates seemed to be infected by him, and they were all very tough.

As the saying goes, the house is broken and it rains all night, the Celtics don't know what went crazy, and one by one the three-pointers are ready.

That is, after Paul Pierce, two consecutive three-pointers directly pulled the score gap to single digits.

Alvin Gentry was beaten a little confused. The situation was great just now, but in the blink of an eye he was beaten 11-0.

Amidst his thoughts, Alvin Gentry paused hastily.

Sitting on the bench, he knew that he could no longer play a 2-3 zone defense, otherwise he would definitely be beaten into pieces.

In the end, he decided to play man-to-man.

The timeout is over and players from both sides enter the court.

At the same time, Alvin Gentry replaced pie king Michael Olowokandi and replaced him with Wang Zhizhi.

Li Chen looked at the blood-red 65 to 58 on the monitor.

He knew the Clippers had to score or they were in danger.

Clippers throw-in.

The moment Andre Miller prepares to pass the basketball.

I saw that the Celtics players quickly blocked the Clippers' offensive line.Don't give the Clippers any respite.

The current Celtics are completely different from the Celtics in the first half.

If the Celtics in the first half were an NBA team, then the Celtics in the second half are like a group of injured beasts, who may choose to eat at any time.

Jim O'Brien, who saw this scene at the same time, was also a little surprised. He didn't expect his aggressive method to have a chemical reaction, hoping that his defensive strategy could defeat the Clippers.

The Celtics' defensive strategy is to closely monitor every Clippers player and constantly use aggressive defense to put pressure on the Clippers, making it difficult for Clippers players to find shooting opportunities.

Andre Miller, who saw this scene, knew that he could only pass it to Li Chen, and let him use his personal ability to break the Celtics' full-court press.

At the same time, Li Chen knew that this attack must be successful to stabilize the morale of the army, otherwise the Clippers would likely collapse under such high-pressure defense.

Li Chen used his speed to run out of space, and then shouted, "Andre, here."

Andre Miller's eyes lit up and he passed the ball to Li Chen.

As soon as Li Chen received the ball, Bremer, who was responsible for defending Li Chen, came up again.

Li Chen sent Bremer flying with a low fake move, and then he made a three-step layup.

At this moment, Antoine Walker and Eric Williams jumped up and directed Li Chen's shooting path.

In desperation, Li Chen forcibly shrank his body and completed the basket in the gap between the two.

But the basketball bounced back and forth on the rim twice, and finally bounced out.

Li Chen's basket didn't go in.

In fact, Li Chen was not surprised that he didn't score this goal, because he doesn't feel good right now.

Li Chen, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, jumped up again just after landing and scored a rebound in front of two Celtics players.

At this time, Antoine Walker and Eric Williams blocked Li Chen's shooting angle while trying to steal.

At this moment, Elton Brand ran back and threw off the defender, "Chen, here."

Li Chen hit the ground and passed the ball to Elton Brand.

Elton Brand, who received the ball, held the ball with one hand, took two big steps, and then jumped up.

Elton Brand jumped up like a bird and flew towards the basket.

At the same time, Antoine Walker also leaped high, with a palm like a mountain, pressing hard on the basketball in Elton Brand's hand.

Snapped!Elton Brand was swat down from the air like a fly.

At this time, the referee's whistle sounded, and the Clippers made a foul.

Li Chen reached out and pulled Elton Brand up from the ground, "Are you okay?"

Just now he saw Elton Brand hit the floor hard, and his eyelids jumped. He was really afraid that Elton Brand would be injured.

Elton Brand shook his head and said: "It's okay."

"Farke, those Celtic bastards, don't know why they are crazy, suddenly so strong." Elton Brand complained.

Li Chen shrugged, "Who knows?"

Corey Maggette took a throw-in. Seeing that Li Chen had not gotten rid of the defensive player for the time being, he passed the ball to Andre Miller.

Andre Miller caught the ball and drove towards the basket, attracting two Celtics defenders to attack.

He made a false vote and passed it to Li Chen.

Li Chen did not stop after receiving the ball. Before Bremer could react, he turned around and dribbled past Bremer.

At this time the Celtics double-teamed again.

Li Chen quickly passed the ball to Wang Zhizhi, who was open in the bottom corner.

After receiving the ball, Wang Zhizhi hesitated, but finally shot it.

But after such a hesitation, Paul Pierce, the replacement, caught up.

See Paul Pierce leaping high, but he did not block the ball.But it was rubbed by the middle finger.

As soon as Paul Pierce landed, he turned around and yelled, "Rebound."

But just when he turned around, he saw a figure wearing a 16 jersey rising up. His big and powerful hands overwhelmed Antoine Walker and grabbed the basketball tightly.
