The Whip of the God of Basketball

According to the schedule, on March 21, the Boston Celtics and Lakers game will begin at the Staples Center at the scheduled time. As Fox Leon declared before the game, the Celtics pushed all the main players on the bench. His starting lineups were Dailem's Po'te, Chris Anderson, Eric Williams, Malik Seely and Courtney Alexander.

This is basically a CBA lineup, their opponent is the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers, and this game Shaquille O'Neal has returned to the formation, this is the complete Lakers, this is the Lakers sprinting for the playoffs. Fox Leon actually used such a foolish lineup to make his debut at Staples. At the moment the players appeared on the field, the audience on the scene could feel the cramps and uneasiness of the Celtics players.

"Is this suitable, coach?" Before coming on the field, Dailem'Po' still hesitated to ask Leon, although Dailem'Po' has also started this season, but they are all used as tactical pawns. . This time he is the real starter, and he has to face O'Neal.

"Are you afraid? If you're afraid to take off your clothes and change me?" Leon glared at Dalem's Bo't and asked, Daim's Bo't was so scared that he shrank his head and moved around. The arm is ready to appear.

This is the second time the Celtics and Lakers have coached this season. In the absence of O'Neal in the last game, Kobe Bryant played 47 irons and led the Lakers to a crushing defeat in Boston. Now that most of the season has passed, in Los Angeles, the Lakers players, especially Kobe Bryant, still want to teach the feud at home, but they don't know that the opponent is too cunning, so they just take turns to take the main force.

In this way, the Lakers won, but the victory is not martial. The Lakers lost, and it is needless to say that it will be broken, and it will be ashamed to be thrown at the grandmother's house. The Lakers have been ugly in the regular season this season. O'Neal has been absent in large numbers, and the team's lineup is aging and enterprising. There is already a feeling of being at the end of the game.

The first five of the Celtics came on the field with a sense of timidity. The bright yellow floor and the yellow championship flag flying above their heads are all incompatible with the green jersey. Here It is a forbidden place for green'color', here is a green'color' grave area.

At the beginning of the game, O'Neal was like a shark smelling blood. He easily jumped the ball and succeeded. In his first offense afterwards, he caught the ball from the basket and beat Dalem's ‘Po’te.

It was the first time for Dalem's "Po" to encounter such a strong opponent, with a mountain-like back and an iceberg-like hidden power. O'Neal pressed it twice, raised his elbow and turned his back. Dalem'Bo'te fell like a big tree felled by a chain saw, and then sat on the floor and watched O'Neal with heavy hands. buckle. Then he landed and walked away.

This is Dalem's second NBA season. In the two games of the Celtics against the Lakers in his rookie season, he did not get a one-on-one opportunity with O'Neal. Today he finally felt it, taste it To the power of the first center monster in NBA history.

He got up from the floor laboriously, and Chris Anderson went up and pulled him, Dalem's Bo, felt a little pain in his butt. Leon stood on the sidelines and watched the embarrassing and embarrassing scene. The fans in the whole court had already boiled like boiling water, and the Lakers gave the Celtics a slamming power at the beginning of the game.

Now Leon knows that he has a good news and a bad news. The bad news is that it seems that Dalem's "Po"t is completely impossible to restrict O'Neal, and O'Neal's fighting spirit tonight is very strong; the good news is that Dalem 'Bo'te shouldn't feel timid anymore. After experiencing the power of the giant shark, there is nothing terrible about embarrassment.

Without the main players, Eric Williams has become the core player of the Celtics lineup. He still has a certain ability to play. The player that Williams played against was Fox, and the two were still somewhat familiar, because Fox started from the Celtics and left'Boston to Los Angeles in 1997.' And Williams came to the Celtics in 1995, and the two have been teammates for more than a season. Fox can be regarded as Williams' big brother.

Williams has a strong stature, average but comprehensive skills. Facing the big brother, he didn’t hesitate to take the ball and eat hard at the beginning, and caused Fox’s foul. Williams made two free throws and used the most dull and boring way to score. The score equalized.

At this time, David Stern was sitting in the VIP box of the Staples Center. He rarely watched the game in the box, but this time he wanted to accompany the sponsors and guests, so he did not sit on the sidelines. Stern looked serious and looked very upset. Indeed, the Celtics lineup couldn't make people happy. A group of bench players and bench players are on the court, competing against the defending champions, giving the impression that professional teams are sparring with high school teams.

Stern called Adam Silva last night. He and Fox Leon are more familiar with him. He asked Silva to find Leon himself, hoping that Leon could change his mind and re-send the main players to participate in the 21st night. game.

As a result, Silva and Leon discussed for more than an hour, and finally he came back and got the answer: Even if he was fined, the Celtics would not change their rotation strategy because their players were really injured.

Stern was furious. He had decided to issue a big ticket to the Celtics after this game. Since Leon didn’t care about the league’s advice, he let his boss bear the loss, and then went to discipline them. Head coach.

But this is also something after the game. Now Stern has to hold back his anger and sit in the private room with the sponsor’s director to watch the game. He also needs to introduce the history of the two teams to those in charge. Sponsors are not necessarily basketball fans.

The game was as Stern expected. The Lakers established the lead early in the opening game. Aside from the opening dunk, O'Neal was unstoppable at the basket. In the first quarter, he scored 14 points on 7 of 8 shots. . The Celtics' lineup is really horrible. These substitutes may be able to play a role at some point, but it is difficult for them to stand alone. Players like Alexander haven't gotten many opportunities to play this season.

At 29:15, the Lakers established a 14-point lead in the first quarter. It seems that this will inevitably be a massacre. If Stern was watching TV now, he would have smashed the TV, but unfortunately he was not. He had to nail his **** to a stool to endure the 48 minutes.

………………

Fox Leon is standing on the sidelines at this time, calmly, but his heart is not as calm as it seems. Letting all the main players take turns is not as simple as it seems. It requires a lot of courage and patience to convince the players to accept their ideas.

Obviously he is thinking about more long-term things, but this does not mean that he can give up casually in front of him. The "exercise young people" that Leon said before the game is not an empty word. Playing under tremendous pressure is of great benefit to the growth of young players. A high-pressure game is better than a hundred garbage time. .

The 14-point gap is big enough. This is still the first quarter, and the Celtics scored by the Lakers in a slightly relaxed situation. For Leon, taking turns does not mean giving up. He can feel the main players on the sidelines. They must be thinking about being able to play against their rivals. Why do they sit on the bench and watch the team be ravaged?

If the team loses miserably, then next time he wants to let the players rest, everyone will no longer be persuaded so easily, then his prestige will not be able to convince the players to do something unreasonable.

"OK, the first quarter of the game is over. Have you adapted to the environment here? Have you adapted to the bright yellow floor? This is Staples and this is the home court of the Lakers. There are a total of 23,240 here. Fifteen people, only 20 of them want us to win the game, that’s ourselves. Do you think it’s impossible? Do you feel powerless and desperate? Then I tell you, from now on, forget everything, forget the embarrassment of the first quarter, then It’s just a warm-up. Our score is still 0:0. Calm down, let’s start from the beginning!" Leon used the short five minutes between the first and second quarters to give a small speech, which made the players all Calm down and relax. This is very, very important~www.readwn.com~ Leon knows that young people are very nervous, as starters and defending champions, instead of standing by the side of the main force as a support, whoever changes their teeth will shake.

After stabilizing everyone's emotions, Leon re-adjusted the lineup. He replaced Malik Ciri, allowing Eric Williams to top the shooting guard position and then grant Long at the small forward position. Then he replaced the Dalem "Po" and replaced Mark-Blunt, so that the entire Celtics lineup is very tall.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Celtics served and attacked. Alexander stumbled and dribbled the ball through halftime. Then Blunt mentioned the high post and gave Williams a single block. Alexander handed the ball over. Ryu in the bottom corner, Chris Anderson and Williams, who were on the weak side, made a'cross' shift, and suddenly ran to the basket. Ryu in the bottom corner passed the ball to Anderson, and Anderson easily layed up the counter. succeed.

A classic "door" tactic is used to allow the center to pull out the pick-and-roll to empty the inside line, and then use the screen to attract the weak side's defense. Another player ambushing on the weak side suddenly cuts into the inside line. Score instantly.

It seems that the Lakers' defense is a bit careless, but the fans don't care about the ball on the spot. They still have a 14-point advantage, and although O'Neal is resting off the court, they still have Kobe on the court.
