Chapter 255 The Second Scene

A tough leader is what every team dreams of. Pierce played with injuries, which boosted the morale of the Celtics, who already had the home court advantage.

But maybe he was irritated by the media's remarks, Gasol's first quarter of this game was unusually "firm"!
The Celtics' defensive strategy against Kobe has not changed. After Pierce was injured, Ray Allen became the main force to defend Kobe. However, Ray Allen, who received a series of bonuses, did a very good job. In the first quarter, in his defense He made only one of four shots and scored two points without free throws.

However, the "resilient" Gasol made three three-pointers at the basket, played the advantage of his precise shooting, and hit two free throws and sent two assists, helping the Lakers to end their two-point lead at 22:20 The first quarter of the game.

In the second quarter, Kobe's defender became Shi Lei.No matter how hard Pierce persisted, he was no longer suitable for long-term combat. His injury made him have to pay attention to his playing time.

After Shi Lei scored three-pointers with sudden penalties, the Celtics overtook the score. Kobe strengthened his breakthrough, but the effect was not good.What Ray Allen can do in defense, Shi Lei can only do better.

The Celtics gradually opened up the score.

With 7 minutes and 44 seconds left in this section, after Shi Lei connected the inside line in series, the Celtics also found a sense of the outside line. Ray Allen made a rare shot two steps away from the three-point line and made an easy hit. Shooting, 22 seconds later, Ray Allen made another three-pointer, and the Celtics led 37-27.

At the critical moment, no one in the Lakers seemed to be able to harden up except Kobe, but Kobe was locked by Shi Lei's big lock, and the Celtics became more and more courageous as they fought.

After the two sides replaced the substitutes, Rondo blocked Radmanovich from outside the three-point line with 2 minutes and 04 seconds left in this quarter.

Radmanovic then misfired. This handsome guy's appearance is inversely proportional to his psychological quality.

After the Lakers lost Radmanovich, an important substitute scoring point, their offense had a serious problem. The Celtics took the opportunity to expand the score. They won 34:20 in this quarter. The game led 54:42.

The Lakers only made 2 free throws in the first half, while the Celtics made 19 free throws, which is one of the reasons for the widening gap between the two sides.

This is not some dark so-called home court advantage, maybe some, but not big. Compared with the "noble" Lakers, the NBA headquarters is more favored.

This data can only illustrate one problem, the Lakers are not as daring as the Celtics.Free throws will not fall from the sky. Of the 19 free throws made by the Celtics, 16 of them were obtained by storming the inside of the Lakers. This is usually the easiest area to get free throws. Elegant", Gasol is "floating", Odom is also "floating", Bynum is not "floating", but his problem is that the lack of offensive means is so urgent that the Lakers' "development plan" , a long way to go.

Kobe rushed very hard in the second quarter, but look at his opponent, Ray Allen is a "gentleman" defender, whoever said he fouled, even Kobe himself didn't believe it.

Besides, Shi Lei, this is someone who can foul, but Shi Lei's "mentor" is the "great" defender Bruce Bowen, so black, so "cheap", and so dirty, but Bowen is rarely sent off At that time, Shi Lei was an excellent disciple. Although he hadn't reached the state of being the best, he still inherited Bowen's defensive advantages very well, and it was difficult for the referee to find out.

So Kobe is not wronged, and the Lakers are not wronged!

Shortly after the start of the third quarter, the Celtics led by 64 points with 49:16.

However, Kobe assisted Gasol consecutively, and after he hit an emergency stop three-pointer, the Lakers chased the score to 59:68 and regained hope.

The Celtics immediately called a timeout. After the timeout, Pierce scored consecutively, and Ray Allen also made a three-pointer. The Celtics played a wave of 13:0, expanding the point difference to more than [-] points in one fell swoop.

At the critical moment, the Lakers' "noble disease" occurred again. After the Celtics strengthened their defense, they made consecutive mistakes and failed to score a point in nearly 4 minutes.

With 35.3 seconds left in this section, the Celtics took a 81-point advantage with 59:23.

Kobe hit a buzzer before the end of the game, and after three quarters, they fell behind 61:83.

The Lakers have lost confidence and their defense is even more useless. With 7 minutes and 55 seconds left in the fourth quarter, after Garnett made a mid-range shot, the Celtics led by 95 points with 71:24.

The director shouted "click", Rivers replaced the substitute, and the Lakers began to counterattack aggressively. In vain, although within 3 minutes, the Lakers played a wave of 14:7, but it didn't help. Big, after Shi Lei dunked successfully and caused Bynum's foul, the "Grandpa KFC" who woke up raised his hands and declared his surrender!
In this game, Paul Pierce continued to feel overwhelmed. He made 4 of 4 three-pointers and scored 28 points. Kevin Garnett scored 17 points and 14 rebounds. Ray Allen also made three three-pointers. 3 points.Shi Lei, who came off the bench, scored 17 points, and Rondo set his career playoff assist record with 17 assists.

For the Lakers, Kobe Bryant made 23 of 8 shots and scored 22 points and 8 assists. Paul Gasol had 17 points and 10 rebounds.The stats are also good, but... no, no more, the rest of their players are all eunuchs without "balls" behind the stats!

In this game, Fisher's experience didn't help him anymore, and he even made Rondo, who was familiar with his defense in the game, a leak.

The Lakers came with great ambitions, and left with a touch of "sadness", with a big score of 0:2 behind, and the "elegy" played by the media who followed them to Los Angeles.

The Celtics are much more comfortable. If they win, all their experiences will become legends. With a big score of 2:0, Pierce, the key player in these two games, once again appeared on the important media list. The layout, even the official website of the NBA headquarters, gave Pierce a close-up of a firm expression.

"Getting closer to the team's first championship trophy in 17 years, Pierce said: 'We won't stop until again!'"

Everything seems to be good for the Celtics.
