Chapter 213 Scene Six
The Cavaliers' home court was overcrowded today, comparable to TD North Shore Gardens. When the visiting team played, the boos erupted here seemed to make the entire United States tremble.

After breaking through the difficult fifth game, the Celtics actually have a psychological advantage in this game, not only because they won the "Battle of Tianwang Mountain", but also because if the next game can be played, they will also have a psychological advantage. They will be at their own home court, so although the audience here put a lot of pressure on them, they are still relatively calm.

However, the Cavaliers, who appeared amidst the violent cheers of the fans, had unusually solemn faces on the faces of the players. They were already standing on the edge of the cliff, and they couldn't allow them to take another half step back.

This has led to two completely different bench atmospheres. The Celtics are chatting and laughing here, and the teammates are talking and laughing. There is no tension before the war at all. Amidst the cheers, each of them was silent.

But all of this is just an illusion. The Cavaliers have the belief that they will win this game, and the Celtics also don't want to let go. The calmness on their faces is just the relaxation before the battle. When they really stand on the court, they The spirit is completely concentrated.

Their opponents had already appeared, and they were still on their way, and the Celtics didn't want to wait any longer.

This was a tragic match. Sitting in front of the computer, Shi Lei could feel the determination emanating from his teammates from the very first second of the match. However, this match was more difficult than he felt. much more difficult.

Garnett helped the team get the ball, Rondo was strongly blocked by the Cavaliers' outside line during the advance, and the basketball was handed over to Ray Allen.

As soon as Ray Allen received the ball, the Cavaliers' defense shrank to the inside. Obviously, this was to isolate the internal and external connection between him and Garnett.

Seeing this situation, Ray Allen immediately made a shot, but the basketball was rejected by the basket.

Ray Allen's rate of fire is very fast, it is very difficult to defend, and his touch is soft, but like being cursed, his "cooling off period" seems to be extraordinarily long.

Before this game, in response to the Cavaliers' defensive strength on the inside, Rivers emphasized the team's outside shooting. He hoped that the outside shooting can increase the opponent's defensive area, thereby liberating his own inside. Ray Allen's miss this time caused a haze to appear on Rivers' face.

After halftime, West crossed the basketball to James.It was Pierce who defended James head-on, and Ray Allen assisted him.The Celtics' defensive strategy is no secret at this time. James took a step across immediately after receiving the ball, and then advanced towards the Celtics inside like a tiger.

As soon as James moved, the Celtics' defense moved accordingly. Pierce immediately stepped forward, echoing Ray Allen at the side, weaving a solid halter and covering the head of James, the wild horse.

James' passing is actually so-so, but his unmatched breakthrough bonus allows him to always create open opportunities for his teammates.But what he faced this time was a solid line of defense built by defensive master Thibodeau.

After the basketball was passed to Szczerbiak, without Ray Allen's quick-fire skills, he put the Celtics' defense back in place in a blink of an eye. Rondo's interference made his shot also miss.

"That big guy is so stupid, why doesn't he pass the basketball?"

Alice's complaint made Shi Lei shake his head and smile wryly. In the eyes of the fans, the stadium is full of loopholes, but they can't see the traps under the cover of the loopholes, and they can't understand them. How difficult it is to make a reasonable choice in such a short period of time.

Of course, Shi Lei has no intention of popularizing basketball science: "That's why some people are stars, while others can only be substitutes."

The two had just had a conversation, and the opposing sides completed another offense and defense against each other. Still no one was able to break down the opponent's defensive barrier, and the ball was once again transferred to the hands of the Celtics.

The Celtics' offense finally kicked in. Pierce's breakthrough under the basket scored the team's first goal of the game. On the other hand, after receiving a pass from James, West also Opened the scoring for the team.

The first quarter of the game between the two sides was stalemate like this. If you score a goal, I will also score a goal. If you hit the iron, I will also hit the iron.

A long-term equilibrium is impossible. After all, one side will not be able to hold on first. With 6 minutes and 12 seconds left in the second quarter, Garnett made a shot and the Celtics took a 31:25 lead.

Seeing this, the nervous Shi Lei finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he was too happy. This turned out to be the last shot the Celtics made in this quarter. After that, they only relied on free throws Got two points.

The Cavaliers seized this opportunity this time. After a wave of 16:2, they took a 42:33 lead at the end of the first half, and West made a three-pointer at the buzzer.

The Celtics' plight was far from over. After Garnett was watched, Ray Allen felt bad, and Pierce exhausted his energy for defense, no one stood up to carry the banner of the team's offense.

At the beginning of the second half, their shots were still frequently missed, but Tony Allen, who was exceptionally good defensively in the last game, still played in this game. Under his stalking moves, the Cavaliers' offensive wave also announced At the end, the two sides slowly returned to the state of tug-of-war.

In the case of unequal strength, no strategy can be effective for a long time.With more than 3 minutes into the third quarter, Ray Allen scored the first goal of the second half for the team, and the Celtics started their counterattack.

With the recovery of the outside touch, the Celtics once narrowed the point difference to three points, but in the final stage of this quarter, Tony's defense against James was declared invalid, leading the Cavaliers to score six points in a row before the end of this quarter , Re-opened the point difference at 59:50.

Shortly after the start of the fourth quarter, the Cavaliers gained a 65-point advantage with 52:13
At this point in the game, Shi Lei reached out and turned off the computer, there was no need to watch it anymore, the physical strength of both sides had almost been lost, but there was still one person who still had the strength to fight - James!

"The game is not over yet!"

"No, it's over."

Shi Lei stood up from the chair and stretched.
