Chapter 109 Downturn
Reasonable collision zone, this is Shi Lei's favorite position, here Shi Lei turns around and pushes hard, turning Wallace into the inside lane, it is too late for Antonio to make up the defense, Shi Lei dunks successfully.

If it wasn't for Shi Lei's lack of height, Rivers really wanted to train him into an insider.

The Pistons' offense was in trouble at this time. The Celtics' three outsiders were all strong in single defense, but the Pistons did not break through the masters.Turning the basketball inside, Wallace was seen by Garnett as having no chance to make a shot.Shi Lei stepped forward and guarded Antonio firmly.

In the end Wallace forcibly struck the iron.

Antonio's rebound judgment is very good, and his positioning is also very accurate, but Shi Lei's impact and flexibility make it impossible for him to grab this offensive rebound.

The Celtics still handed the ball to Shi Lei. Shi Lei beat Wallace again. When Antonio came up to defend, he threw the basketball to the basket and assisted Garnett for a dunk.

In the face of tight defense, the best way is to break the surface. Shi Lei's continuous strong play at the basket forced the Pistons to give up their strict defense against Garnett.

Garnett scored five points in a row, and the Celtics narrowed the gap after a 9-2 run.

The Celtics trailed only 41:43 in the first half.

In the third quarter, the two teams entered into a tug-of-war. The level of defense was like a preview of the finals. In this quarter, Shi Lei only made one shot, but got five free throw opportunities.

With 2 minutes left in the game, the main players of the two teams went off to rest.The fierce competition has exhausted everyone's strength.

After coming off the bench, the scene looked a lot better, but no one was able to widen the point difference. With 7 minutes and 57 seconds left in the game, the Pistons led by 72 points with 69:3.

But the Celtics started to fight back, the main player came on the court, Pierce scored 3 points with penalty shots, and Shi Lei also made another layup.After scoring 5 points in a row, the Celtics surpassed the score.

With 4 minutes and 55 seconds left in this section, Pierce succeeded in stealing and rushed to the frontcourt single-handedly. After scoring a dunk, the Celtics expanded their advantage by 81:76.

The Celtics entered a scoring drought again, but the Pistons did not seize the opportunity. Hamilton and Billups missed consecutive free throws, allowing them to only score one point during this period.

However, Prince forced a breakthrough to the basket with 2 minutes and 36 seconds left in the game, and then passed the ball to Hamilton. The latter hit a three-pointer, and the Pistons were only 80:81 behind.

The game entered a fierce stage, and Shi Lei, who was looking for a good opportunity, caused Antonio to make a foul at the basket, and scored three-pointers with consecutive shots and penalties.

Garnett scored two more free throws, and the Celtics opened up the 6-point gap in one fell swoop.

At the last moment, the Pistons' defense caused the Celtics to make consecutive mistakes in passing the ball. The Pistons took the opportunity to score four points and narrow the point difference.

But in the first game between the two sides, Shi Lei, who sent a fatal foul to Billups, completed his own redemption here.

Shi Lei grabbed the offensive rebound that Pierce missed, caused Antonio to foul again at the basket, knocked the opponent down, and scored another three points.

With less than 1 minute left in the game, Shi Lei helped the team lead by five points.

Billups miraculously reappeared, and he hit a three-pointer at a critical moment.However, Shi Lei turned around and made a layup with 8.5 seconds left in the game, which made the Pistons lose the opportunity to overtake the score.

Shi Lei scored 20 plus 10 again in this game, helping the team get through the danger, but the Celtics' good luck seems to have come to an end.

Ray Allen's state continued to slump, which even infected Pierce and Rondo.In the game against the Bobcats at home, only Garnett maintained his level, scored 24 points and 8 rebounds, Ray Allen scored 5 points, Rondo and Pierce scored 13 points neatly.

Shi Lei, who scored 20 points in two consecutive games, finally lost his bravery in this game. Under the defense of Wallace of the Bobcats, Shi Lei only scored 11 points and failed to help the team again.

The Celtics suffered their second home defeat of the season.

After an unexpected loss to the Bobcats at home, the Celtics' nightmare in January has just begun.

In the game against the Nets, the Celtics' superstar group was still in a downturn. In the first three quarters of the game, their shooting percentage was less than 63%, leaving the team behind 68:[-].

After the start of the fourth quarter, the Nets extended their advantage to 7 points, but at this time the Celtics superstars finally woke up. They played a wave of 13:0 attacks, overtaking the score and avoiding the team first losing streak.

The team seems to have entered a downturn. In the away game against the Wizards, the Celtics unexpectedly lost another game.

In this game, Ray Allen only made 13 of 3 shots and scored 8 points. Perkins left the field early and Rondo disappeared inexplicably. Although Shi Lei scored 21 points again, it was of no avail.

The Celtics had the upper hand for most of the second half.With 3 minutes and 56 seconds left in the game, the Celtics still led 74:70.The last few minutes have always been the most ferocious time for the Celtics, but today it was the opposite, and the Wizards began to fight back.After Butler made two free throws, Antonio Daniels forced a three-point shot, and then Stevenson cheated Pierce from beyond the three-point line and made three free throws. The Wizards played a wave of 9:0. With 34.2 seconds left, it exceeded 79:74.

Garnett then made only one of two free throws, and the Celtics lost their last chance.Although Pierce narrowed the gap to 3 points with three points, it was too late.

"The Celtics are no longer invincible!"

After the game, Jamison threw out such a point of view to the media.

"I'll wait for you guys at home and say this later."

Pierce responded tit for tat.

Only one day later, the Celtics ushered in the visit of the Wizards.

"Let's kill them!"

Before the start of the game, Pierce high-fived every teammate in front of the locker room. Perhaps the leader of the Celtics had great confidence at this time.

The fans of the team also gave great encouragement to the home team. They were fully armed and came to TD North Shore Garden wearing the game uniforms of their favorite players to cheer for the team. Some small fans even drew pictures on their faces. On the face, half white and half green home iconic colors, to show their support for the team.

Before the start of the game, Rivers was also besieged by the media. The high-spirited head coach of the new season was out of style, and with some doubts remaining, he was also holding back and asking: "The Celtics What's the matter?"
