Chapter 168 First Victory in the Finals

Garnett was dunked to the ground, his eyes almost bursting with fire. An old-school player like him has a strong desire to win.

It was undoubtedly a shame for Garnett to be dunked in such an unusually cruel way by Du Zhe.

But Du Zhe's dunk action was very clean and neat, and Garnett had no chance to get angry for the time being.

"Paul, I will make this kid pay, I swear!" After being pulled up from the ground by Pierce, Garnett said viciously.

And this opportunity didn't seem to keep Garnett waiting too long.

After a few rounds, he took advantage of Du Zhe's strength at the basket and blocked Du Zhe's dunk from the flank.

The ball was slapped hard out of bounds. Although the Warriors still had the ball, Garnett beat his chest excitedly as if he had been beaten to death, and even glared at Du Zhe provocatively.

However, Du Zhe didn't pay attention to the excited Garnett at all. He had no sadness or joy in his eyes, and his face was calm. He just ran over to pick and roll for his teammates silently according to the team's tactical arrangement.

Immediately afterwards, the Warriors' center Turiaf was in charge of serving, and Curry used Du Zhe's pick-and-roll to get to the basket to catch the ball.

However, in the face of Garnett and Perkins who were standing at the basket to guard against death, he did not choose to shoot rashly. Instead, he passed the ball lightly to Du Zhe, who was attacking from behind.

At this time, the Celtics' two insiders were all attracted by Curry. By the time they discovered that Du Zhe was coming, it was already a bit late.

Garnett and Perkins raised their arms to block Du Zhe, but Du Zhe, who had already completed his run-up and took off, was unstoppable. Facing their defense, he launched a powerful tomahawk dunk.

"boom!"

Garnett's head again sounded a powerful dunk.

"Play ball as long as you play, what's the point of messing around with those useless things all day long?" After landing, Du Zhe couldn't help but sneer.

The object of ridicule is naturally the wolf king who was beating his chest and feet excitedly just now.

"You..." Garnett was so angry that he was speechless and didn't know how to retort.

Looking at Du Zhe standing face to face in front of him, he raised his hands, trying to push this unpleasant Chinese boy away.

But Du Zhe just glared at him, and Garnett immediately regained consciousness. Du Zhe had a reputation for being vicious, but he was a real tough guy...

His two hands were awkwardly hanging in the air, neither pushing nor releasing.

Seeing Garnett like this, Du Zhe didn't bother to bother him, then turned around and slowly ran back to his own half to defend.

Du Zhe knew that if he was just a little-known player, Garnett would have exploded just now.

But with his current vicious reputation, coupled with the coercion of the halo of the villain on the court, how could Garnett really dare to do it.

In this way, under Du Zhe's intimidation, the famous wolf king could only swallow his anger and hold it back to his stomach.

However, in the third quarter, the Celtics' Big Three appeared at the same time, and the three of them could fight the Warriors evenly.

After three quarters, the score between the two teams was 76:72, and the Warriors still only led by 4 points.

Seeing that the situation on the field has stabilized for the time being, Celtics coach He Doc also heaved a sigh of relief.

He turned his head and poured chicken soup up and down the team, trying to motivate everyone to win the fourth quarter with all their might.

But Paul Pierce didn't listen to a word of his words.

Now Pierce's mind is blank, he is sitting on the bench, panting and drinking Gatorade, and he looks exhausted.

This is actually quite normal.

In terms of age, Pierce is older than Kobe, and in today's game, he faced Du Zhe on both offense and defense.

Facing Du Zhe's tireless running and constant boxing in the paint, how could the almost 33-year-old Pierce stand such a toss.

If it's just these things, it's fine, but Du Zhe's fighter talent has caused Pierce's physical exertion to increase exponentially.

If he were a few years younger, Pierce might still be able to handle it, but now he can only lament that time is not forgiving.

The coach of the Celtics, Doc River, also realized that something was wrong, and hurried over and asked, "Paul, how are you? Are you feeling alright?"

Pierce clutched his chest and nodded with difficulty.

Although Pierce said that he can still persist, seeing his appearance, He Dou also knew that the veteran had basically reached his limit.

Although Du Zhe consumes a lot of physical strength, for him, this level of consumption can still persist.

In the fourth quarter, he directly suggested to coach Nelson that he should guard Ray Allen.

As for Pierce?Now, whether it's Ellis or Maggette, they can easily lock him down.

Sure enough, in the fourth quarter, Pierce, who played again, had weak legs and could no longer keep up with the fierce offensive and defensive rhythm of the game.

On the offensive end, he was too lazy to move and could only stand outside the three-point line to stretch space.

On the defensive end, in most cases, he can only perform walking and eye-catching defense.

As a result, among the Big Three, Pierce was exhausted, Ray Allen was being targeted by Du Zhe, and Garnett, the only remaining player, was not very efficient in the paint. The situation on the court for the Celtics was a bit awkward. I can't stand it any longer.

When the Big Three are unable to exert their power on the offensive end, Rondo and Perkins alone on the court are obviously unable to carry the offensive banner.

As for the Warriors, although Du Zhe's physical exhaustion is also very serious, he is obviously much better than Pierce. Although the shooting rate has dropped, at least there is no problem in maintaining the firepower on the offensive end.

The Celtics, already at the end of their strength, were instantly suppressed by Du Zhe's firepower.

Although He Wenwen stood on the sidelines, his voice almost hoarse from shouting, he still couldn't stop the balance of victory from tilting towards the Warriors.

At the last moment of the game, Pierce, who had been struggling to the end, clutched his calf and fell to the ground in pain.

In the case of severe physical exhaustion, his calf began to cramp.

After standing up again, Pierce limped, apparently unable to hold on any longer.

Although he was not injured, it was obvious that he could no longer continue the game. After thinking for a moment, He Fan could only replace him and rest.

This also symbolizes that the Celtics have officially given up today's game.

In the end, the whole game came to an end, and the Warriors won the first game without any risk at 103:96.

After scoring 60 points in a single game, Du Zhe played another amazing performance in this battle.

他全场27投17中,命中13记三分,狂砍51分6板5断1帽,以一人之力力压三巨头。
