NBA: No. 1 Forward

Other Knicks players on the court got a lot of opportunities, which is why Lian Dao, who scored 18 points in the first quarter, only scored 38 points now.

In this game, other Knicks players were also very strong. With the blessing of Lian Dao\'s "Pass Master Badge", most of the passes were converted into assists.

Pierce is also extremely vigilant now. He made too many mistakes in this game. If it wasn\'t for the three-pointer just recently, which gave him a chance to redeem himself, he probably would be killed by the fans after the game was over. To squirt shit.

So, he is now striving not to make any mistakes.

However, when he followed Lian Dao like brown sugar, Lian Dao suddenly turned around and ran away!

Pierce followed immediately, but as soon as he took a step, he plunged into Millsap\'s arms.

Off the ball screen!

Lian Dao, who received the ball from outside the three-point line, did not shoot a three-pointer, but directly broke through with the ball.

After Pierce went around the pick-and-roll, he wanted to interfere with Lian Dao\'s three-pointer, but Lian Dao chose to break through. Because the distance was too close, he couldn\'t react at all, so Lian Dao passed him in one step.

Kendrick Perkins quickly shrunk to the basket, and he was about to avenge the dunk at the beginning of the first quarter!

Lian Dao was not at all afraid of Kendrick Perkins\' supplementary defense. He stepped into the penalty area, then looked at Millsap standing on the right side, grabbed the ball with one hand with his left hand, and threw it behind him.

"Bastard!" Kendrick Perkins cursed inwardly, and hurriedly took a big step in the direction of Millsap.

However, when he just stepped over, he found that there was no basketball in Millsap\'s hand.

It turned out that just including the eyes and throwing the ball behind his back were Lian Dao\'s fake moves.

Fake a pass behind the back, then pull it back quickly, dangling Kendrick Perkins, easy drive to the basket, and dunk!

"Hahaha, Kendrick Perkins was tricked by Sickle\'s passing fakes, but Sickle\'s fakes are too realistic, and his wide palm allows him to catch the ball very firmly with one hand, and he and Jordan The palms are basically the same size, which is really important for a passer!"

"At the very least, he can make the opponent uncertain every time, whether you want to pass the ball or attack!"

Kendrick Perkins kicked the basketball hoop a little annoyed. The referee gave Kendrick Perkins a look, but in the end he did not give a penalty. At this stage, it is dispensable to call the penalty. The referee They will choose to ignore it and leave the game to the players on both sides for resolution.

The reason why Kendrick Perkins couldn\'t restrain the anger in his heart was because after landing on the ground, Lian Dao pointed his finger at his head.

The meaning is obvious: "Brains are a good thing, but you don\'t have one!"

The point difference returned to 8 points.

At this time, Celtics head coach Doug Rivers called a timeout. He replaced Kendrick Parkin, who was somewhat up, and Kevin Garnett, who had just rested for 2 minutes. In the fourth quarter, Garnett\'s physical fitness was obviously insufficient. Doug Rivers had no choice but to change Garnett off the court to rest for two minutes.

And now there are only two and a half minutes before the end of the game. At the decisive moment, although Doc Rivers also knew that Garnett was tired, he had no choice. As long as Garnett was off the court, the Celtics\' inside defense would inevitably will weaken.

Garnett nodded and walked to the field.

"Sickle\'s offensive methods are too rich, and he has almost no shortcomings. If Jordan is the most perfect shooting guard, then I feel that Lian Dao is the most perfect small forward."

"Moreover, the Knicks, who are in the lead, are not impatient at all, including the offensive choice of sickle just now, which is really too smart. In two and a half minutes, the Celtics are still behind by 8 points, which is almost the last game. Another copy," said Mike Breen.

"The Celtics have no chance in this game, especially the Knicks will put all their focus on defense in the next game! Moreover, the Knicks this season also have such a strong defensive ability!" Jeff Van Gundy shook said the head.

If the Celtics have a way to deal with the Knicks\' offense, they will not choose to take a three-pointer at the last moment to keep the team alive.

However, when Larry Hughes restricted Ray Allen and Lian Dao was close to Pierce, Rasheed Wallace once again came to the bottom corner for a three-pointer.

Still in the same position, but this time under David Lee\'s defense, he didn\'t have such good luck.

Rasheed Wallace missed a three-pointer, and the Celtics failed to continue their firepower at the critical moment.

The rebound was picked off by Millsap, and Garnett moved a step slower than Millsap due to lack of energy.

Panting heavily, sweating profusely, she watched helplessly as Millsap took off the rebound and handed it to Lian Dao.

But this time, Lian Dao passed the ball again to the fast-down Holiday, who scored a layup with the ball.

The point difference came to 10 points.

Reluctantly, Doug Rivers called a timeout again, which was the last timeout for the Celtics.

"Kevin, Rasheed, you two pull to the outside to do the pick-and-roll, we must let Ray and Paul get three-point opportunities, if Paul and Ray don\'t have three-point opportunities, then Rasheed, I need you on the three-point line Take a bold shot from outside..." Doc Rivers knew that at the current time, if he wanted to catch up with the score, he could only choose a three-pointer.

"Don\'t double-team easily, remember to move and change defenses quickly, try not to give the opponent a chance to score from the outside, let them shoot inside, but don\'t make a three-pointer!" D\'Antoni also knew at this time that the Celtics would definitely use it. Three points for the final dying struggle.

There is no other tactical arrangement. At the last moment of the game, basically all the moves that can be used have been used. Now it depends on the competition between the players of the two sides.

At the last moment, the player\'s performance is greater than the coach\'s decision.

Pause back.

Lian Dao found that Garnett and Rasheed kept providing off-ball screens for Pierce and Ray Allen on the outside.

Lian Dao didn\'t dare to relax his vigilance for Pierce. This guy\'s three-pointers are second only to Ray Allen among the Celtics.

Rondo saw that there was no chance from the outside line, so he directly fed the ball to Garnett who cut in the pick-and-roll.

Garnett singles Millsap.

Although Millsap did not limit Garnett in this game, he also caused a lot of trouble for Garnett in the offense, preventing Garnett from receiving the ball comfortably under the basket, actively defending against card positions, etc. , Garnett\'s physical crisis, in addition to the Knicks\' bombardment tactics, is also partly due to the struggle between the basket and Millsap.

It\'s not that Garnett hasn\'t tried the end of the game, but every time after the end of the game, Lian Dao will frequently wreak havoc on the Celtics inside.

"Old guy No strength, right?" Millsap gritted his teeth, and stood firmly behind Garnett, not forgetting to spout trash talk.

Garnett is not the only one who is good at trash talking. Millsap is also a master of trash talking. Even Lian Dao admires Millsap in terms of trash talking.

Moreover, Millsap\'s psychological quality is very good. Under the training of Jerry Sloan, Millsap is rarely affected by trash talk.

After all, under Jerry Sloan\'s staff, he would hear the old man\'s trash talk basically every day, and Millsap is probably used to it.

It was rare for Garnett not to reply to the past trash talk. In order to save energy, he didn\'t want to talk trash anymore. He used all his strength, and after two hard pushes, he found that there was no push.

At this time, Lian Dao\'s defensive focus is now on Pierce, and he can no longer double-team Garnett like before.

Garnett originally thought that since he couldn\'t stand it, he would turn around and break through.

But unexpectedly, Millsap predicted Garnett\'s offensive line this time, completely locking Garnett\'s breakthrough.

Helpless, Garnett can only turn over and jump shot.

"Tang!"

"Shet!" Garnett cursed helplessly.

Rasheed Wallace reached out to grab the rebound, and David Lee also caught up at this time, but he found that Rasheed Wallace was a step behind, so when Rasheed grabbed the rebound, it fell.

David Lee jumps up and flips the basketball out of Rasheed Wallace\'s hands.

The basketball is just as you click, I click, and it flies towards the free throw line.

And just in the direction of Lian Dao and Pierce, Lian Dao grabbed the rebound before Pierce.

Then, it was thrown to Larry Hughes.
