?PS. Present today’s update, and by the way, vote for the "Starting Point" 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. Voting will also give away starting point coins. I beg your support and appreciation!

Michael Reid's magical three-pointer plunged North Shore Garden into a festive atmosphere. The fans cheered, applauded, and stood up and high-five each other. The Celtics players also stepped forward and touched Reid's head, and then a group of people went back to the locker room noisily. The original depression of the Bucks' continuous pursuit of points was swept away, and the 5-point gap became 8 points. Leon was also relieved, knowing that the situation of the game was back under the control of the Celtics.

In the locker room at halftime, Reid became a star, and all the Celtics players were asking how this guy did this stuff. If it were replaced by Antoine Walker, he would have started blowing wildly, while Reid honestly answered "Mr. Siegfried taught me."

"What's the matter? Did Michael score a three-pointer in midfield?" Only PJ-Brown, who was sent off midway, looked dumbfounded. He didn't know what had happened, so he asked Leon in a daze.

"Reid made an incredible three-pointer... Go watch the video tomorrow, it's hard to describe..." Leon didn't know how to describe this goal. As a smart guy with no ideas, he was true. Did not expect Reid to complete such a goal. Of course, he also knows that this kind of ball is unique, and he may have a chance to score one or two in a season. As long as the opponent pays a little attention, it can be easily blocked, and this kind of shooting is too difficult.

The second half of the game, just as Leon expected. Reid's three-pointer extinguished the arrogance of the Bucks, and the five points were an insurmountable barrier for both sides. After experiencing a relatively poor offensive state in the first half, Reid finally ushered in an explosion in the third quarter. He made 4 of 5 three-pointers and made three three-pointers in a row, directly stopping the Bucks. . He no longer cares about how many goals Ray Allen scores and points. He no longer always focuses on following defense and close body. He let go of his hands and feet and attacked with all his strength, which made Ray Allen feel tremendous pressure. He actually started to lose accuracy in the second half.

By the fourth quarter, the Celtics once extended the point difference to 15 points. Seeing that the general situation is gone, the Bucks finally requested a timeout in the middle of the fourth quarter to replace the main players, replaced the players at the end of the bench, and declared that the game was in trash. time.

"George really doesn't have the kind of savage and wildness in the Sonics. There are five minutes to give up like this. It seems that this team has no hope." Dick Hart saw the Bucks Abandoned the game, said to Leon sitting back on the bench. Hart and George Karl are also old acquaintances, when Karl was an assistant coach for the Cavaliers. Hart served as an assistant to Chuck Daly in the Pistons, and the two teams in the same division often played against each other and knew each other very well.

After the short rise of the Bucks in the early 21st century, they will also begin to decline. The Milwaukee era belonging to the Three Musketeers is coming to an end.

For a week in a row, the Celtics experienced three home battles against the Bucks, Nuggets and Magic. It's a sweet schedule for the Celtics. The ups and downs of the team a while ago, just when it was necessary to adjust, just three opponents were not strong. The Bucks finally won without risk, and the Nuggets have been so bad this season. Their goal of the season is to compete for the top pick, at least the top three rookies.

Therefore, in the North Shore Garden, which has gradually become the home of the new NBA devil, the Nuggets have no resistance. They were beaten by the Celtics 35:10 in the first quarter and gave up resistance almost within three minutes. Nuggets coach Jeff Buzderik frowned from start to finish, just sighing in front of the camera, because the team played so terribly, no one of the starting players scored double figures in the entire game, even Only one person has scored 5.

The only team with a score of 10 is Rodney White, who came off the bench, a little-known backup power forward who grabbed 11 points in garbage time, and the entire Nuggets collapsed. Chris Anderson had no mercy in the face of the old owner. He dared to fight and fight in the precious garbage time. He grabbed 12 rebounds and sent a career-high 6 blocked shots. He ruled the garbage time and became garbage. Time>

In the end, the Celtics completed a 43-point massacre at 103:60 at home and sent the Nuggets to hell.

And on January 26, the Celtics ushered in the Orlando Magic, which lacked the top scorer Tracy McGrady, and the guard Jeriel Seth, who replaced McGrady, played surprisingly well and actually stood up. The pressure continued to score and helped the Magic keep the Celtics in the first three quarters. But in the fourth quarter, when Paul Pierce began to take over the game, neither Mike Miller, Armstrong, or Jerry Syther could replace McGrady and Pierce in a tit-for-tat match. Pierce scored 8 points in the fourth quarter. , Stabilized the team's lead and maintained it to the audience.

The Celtics won another victory and won a wave of three-game winning streak at home, ending the ups and downs since January, and further consolidating their second place in the Eastern Conference-their record is second only to Indiana. The Pacers even surpassed the Nets, and the New Jersey was behind with a margin of victory.

The other team that is chasing after them is the Detroit Pistons. They are the opponents the Celtics will visit on January 28.

The direct plane from Boston to Detroit arrived at Detroit Airport at 21:23 on the 27th. Leon, Celtic players and the coaching staff dragged their suitcases together, boarded the official airport bus, and went to live tonight. Hotel.

This is not the first time Leon has come to Detroit. He admits that he doesn't like this city at all. This city that has risen because of the automobile industry and declined because of the automobile industry now has a smell of decay everywhere. . Although since the mid-1990s, tourism, gambling, and entertainment industries have been developed here, like some cities in the west or Connecticut, and they were once revitalized. However, this old industrial city on the edge of the Great Lakes does not have the background to become the next pull Vegas. Since Bush Jr. took office, this place is gradually declining.

Of course, these are not the real reasons why Leon does not like this place. After all, how much does the fate of a city have to do with him? He does not like it here, just because of the Detroit Pistons.

It’s normal for a Boston Celtics player or coach to dislike Detroit, and a Pistons player would not like the Celtics--including Dennis Rodman, he is still a man in his bones. The Pistons, the only things he missed in Boston are Leon and the casino.

Contrary to the city of Detroit, the Pistons, under the leadership of their general manager Joe Dumars, are step by step towards a revival. Since 2002, they have risen together with the Celtics, replacing the 76ers and the Bucks as the new eastern part. power. It's just that compared with the Celtics' unrestrained and fast play, the Pistons still walked the same way they had been successful, using defense to find past glory.

Their backbone is an explosive head named Ben Wallace~www.readwn.com~a loser, a center with a height of over 2 meters, rough and violent. They also got Billups in the summer, he was originally Angie's favorite, a calm, sophisticated, cunning and resourceful defender. The strength of the Pistons has been quickly supplemented, they entered the first group in the East in one fell swoop this season, becoming an out-and-out strong team.

All of this can be the reason why Leon does not like Detroit, because here, he smells the smell of the enemy and the huge obstacles that may be encountered in the future, just like the Detroit Pistons encountered by the Celtics in the late 1980s. . Leon is familiar with that period of history. They put an end to the Celtics and ruined the last glory of the Green Army.

If there is anything he likes about this Pistons, perhaps only their head coach, Rick Carlisle, is there, so after arriving at the hotel, Leon called Carlisle and invited him out for a drink.

Carlisle shrugged off repeatedly, but failed to resist the urge to see Fox-Leon, so he agreed, and the two met at the Punch Bon Union for a drink.
