Chapter 143 Who is more ruthless
There is another quarter of the game and it is still six points behind. This situation is really a bit scratching for the current Celtics. After all, the team I face is the second in the Eastern Conference.
Moreover, the Cavaliers also have an omnipotent and addicted super scorer, and scored 43 points in three quarters. Judging from his posture, this is definitely not the final result he wants.
If there is a chance, that guy might hit 50 points, or a more exaggerated score.
This is definitely not impossible. Just looking at the expression of the little emperor at the end of the third quarter, this guy was a little anxious to continue to score points.
There is no way, who made Chen Feng look down on this guy? The little emperor may have never been looked down upon by anyone since he entered the NBA.
Now you can retaliate by winning the game. How could this guy miss such an opportunity? This mentality will only make him even more crazy.
Just like the time after Chen Feng went down in the third quarter, the little emperor rushed like he was carrying an explosive bag during the attack.
If Pierce hadn't been disturbing her, this guy would have been able to rush for ten minutes in a row.
It was no longer just to win the game, but this guy wanted to demonstrate to Chen Feng in this way, so that the big man who was depressed on the bench could see his rampage.
Neither Rivers nor the Celtics would bow down to their opponents, so during the short rest period, Rivers began to adjust the lineup.
West has been in for about a quarter, and now Rondo is overwhelmed. Whether facing Snow or Damon Jones, Rondo is not a loss.
And now Rivers needs Rondo's needle threading, and this guy's pass is not that fancy, but it is absolutely practical. Now Rivers wants Rondo to stabilize the rhythm.
"At our pace, don't worry about how the opponent plays, there is still the last quarter left, and you must keep it steady."
When Rivers communicated with Rondo, he never had to talk nonsense. He just needed to tell the other party what to do and what he could do. The other problems were solved by the boy himself.
Rondo did not answer, but nodded, indicating that he had already understood that he had been resting on the sidelines for almost a quarter and had to wait for the final moment of the final battle.
Pierce had a break of less than four minutes in the third quarter, but now the score is behind, and Rivers is not planning to let his core rest.
Regarding Rivers' arrangement, Pierce said that it was no problem. Although he had scored 22 points, it was still much worse than the fierce performance of the little emperor.
This made Pierce a little unhappy. After all, this is on his own territory. Could it be that he just let the other party go wild? That must not be possible!
No matter what the final result of the game is, Pierce has no intention of letting the little emperor perform endlessly.
Szebiak was also thrown on the field by Rivers, and he wanted to continue to put pressure on the Cavaliers from the outside.
Inside! Now Rivers needs to choose not in the periphery, but in the inside, whether to match Jefferson with Chen Feng, or let Jefferson and Perkins stabilize the defense first.
This is a difficult problem for Rivers now. After all, the score is behind now, and the Celtics need to chase points. Chen Feng's offensive firepower is undoubtedly the best choice.
But Rivers has to consider not only the chasing points, but more importantly, if that kid encounters Valaijo's entanglement, will he fall into a trap? If he commits two more fouls, this guy will be able to change the room.
In the third quarter, Rivers was considering such a problem since the young emperor reversed the score.
Should I be steady or ruthless? This is a difficult multiple-choice question for Rivers.
"Man, there are twelve minutes left now. If we continue to play steadily, there may not be more mistakes, but if we want to catch up with the score, you know, it's not easy."
"We can curb each other in the first and second quarters because the boy is staying at the basket and he can shake the opponent's attack. Even the little emperor cannot break through at will."
"If we use Al and Kendrick to partner, we have seen it in the third quarter. The scoring may be guaranteed, but they can't curb James in the defense."
"Move, they are indeed not as fierce as the wild boy in blocking and repairing defense. The most important thing is that the guy can be without any scruples in defense, which is what we need most now."
"The sense of oppression must make the opponent feel oppressed. Only in this way can we get the initiative back. As for whether we can win, I don't know, but it's always good to be able to fight."
When Rivers was thinking about which pair of inside partners to play, Thibodeau whispered to his partner. As an assistant coach, Thibodeau seldom communicated with Rivers so directly.
Generally, Thibodeau still puts Rivers first and lets the head coach decide most of the matters, while he is just helping.
"Tom, I know what you said, but..." Before Rivers finished speaking, Thibodeau took it.
"Doug, I know what you are worried about. That kid is sometimes impulsive, but he is definitely not an idiot. I believe he should find a way to control the situation."
"Old guy, it's the regular season now. Give him some confidence. Even if he loses, it's not the end of the day."
Thibodeau didn't say much, but it was enough to make Rivers determined to let Jefferson partner Chen Feng get on the first place.
Since there is no way out, let's fight with all your back. As for fouls or something, no one will care about those at this time.
But Rivers still reminded Chen Feng, "Boy, remember, don't be fooled by Brazilians easily, and you must control your temper."
"You can foul, but don't be teased by that guy to lose your mind. I need you to bring trouble to the other party after you come on the court, instead of throwing the trouble to us."
Chen Feng did not feel as eager to try as he usually did now, but he became a little calm and kept listening to every word Rivers said seriously.
"Don't worry, boss, if I'm really dazed, you can replace me immediately. I promise that the Clevelanders will definitely realize the consequences of making me angry."
When he said this, Chen Feng kept pinching the joints of the two hands. The clanging sound made people around him feel a little scared.
After Rivers finished telling Chen Feng, he shouted at the big guys in front of him, "There are twelve minutes left to do this group of gou girls to be raised!"
There is no need to say anything more. With the warm-up of the first three quarters, the emotions on the Celtics have been brewing enough, and a simple sentence like Rivers is enough to ignite them.
After finally reversing the score, the Cavaliers would never be willing to be turned over by their opponents in the fourth quarter, so Mike Brown was the most powerful player.
Of course, there is no need to say much about the little emperor. This guy is still waiting to refresh his scoring record. Damon Jones feels good now. Compared with Old Snow, his scoring ability is stronger.
As for Hughes who can make his appearance again after resting for more than ten minutes, his ability to involve himself is still very considerable on the outside, at least he can make Szebiak dare not move his foot easily.
And in the inside, Mike Brown pulled Gooden down, preparing Ilgoskas, who had been resting for most of the quarter, to make his debut.
At the last critical moment, the Cavaliers need the height of the inside, and Valejo hits the opponent head-on at the basket, and the Lithuanian Giants can also wait for the right time to assist in defense and blocking.
Anyway, no matter whether the Celtics are playing Jefferson and Perkins, or the pair Jefferson and Chen Feng, Mike Brown has decided to let Valaijo cling to the one who is most likely to score.
"Continue to guard against defense, find all opportunities to create trouble, and don't give them the chance to score easily." This is the order Valejo got before he came on the court.
Mike Brown thought it was very simple. No matter who was in the inside, he would ask Valaijo to kill the opponent and look for opportunities to create the opponent's foul.
Moreover, Valejo's performance in the third quarter was indeed good. His defensive strength was obviously better than Guden. At least when facing each other, this guy was not afraid of anyone at all.
Now Mike Brown wants to use this guy's unique skills and tough attitude to curb the Celtics' inside line. As long as they can hold them back, they will be completed.
If this guy could continue to mess with Jefferson or Chen Feng, then Mike Brown would never mind. As long as he put those guys in trouble, the little emperor would have a chance.
Mike Brown has a good idea, but he forgot one thing: there is always a gap between reality and ideal, and sometimes, that gap will catch you off guard.
When he saw Chen Feng and Jefferson appearing together on the court, Mike Brown kept a secret gesture at Valaicho and signaled the guy to hold on to Chen Feng tightly.
Mike Brown knows how troublesome that kid is. If he can control that kid, the Celtics' inside impact will be much smaller, and the defensive strength will be reduced by a level.
But before Mike Brown's wishful thinking could be struck, the Celtics' first offense had already exploded in the Cavaliers' heartland.
After serving at the bottom line, Rondo's dribbling speed was unprecedentedly fast, which made Damon Jones able to retreat and unable to get stuck at all.
But Rondo had no intention of resolving the problem by breaking through. This guy's slut of breaking to the bottom line made Jones faint. With the gap, there were naturally the pass.
The pass from the ground was accurately delivered to Chen Feng, and the guy received the ball in the three-second zone on the left.
Valecho directly posted it on. His task was to hang around Chen Feng tightly, and then wait for this guy to make a mistake. With the previous two experiences, the Brazilian still wanted to take advantage of it.
But before Valejo could open his hands, he saw Chen Feng turn one and a half to the right, ready to wipe it directly from the bottom line.
Very fast speed, this is probably Valejo's first reaction. He was preparing to stop Chen Feng with one step. If he is lucky enough, he can still get the opponent to take another offensive foul.
The Brazilian thought it was good, but when this guy stepped out, he failed to stop Chen Feng, but he ran into an equally strong big man.
Jefferson's blocking! When Valaijo understood that he had come, Chen Feng had already passed his defensive area.
A beautiful block was enough for Chen Feng to seize the gap. Moreover, the guy not only completed a turn to shake off the defense, but also took the ball and attacked hard in front of Ilgoskas.
The Lithuanian's movement speed was too slow, so he failed to get stuck with Jefferson. Moreover, such a misalignment made him directly face Chen Feng who had already cut in at the basket.
Take the air and burst! When Irgoskas' hands were already raised high, he was facing Chen Feng's superhuman jumping power.
Ilgoskas, who is more than 2.20 meters tall, didn't jump any longer. His defensive action on tiptoe was like a screen, but this screen was still a little shorter for some people.
Moreover, Chen Feng did not give Ilgoskas any chance to retreat. Facing those hands, his wild power was instantly released, and the heavy pressure that was falling from the air was like a thrust when an eagle was preying on.
He broke through the block of his hands and pressed against Ilgoskas, who was twenty centimeters higher than him, and succeeded in a heavy slam dunk. Just like the opponent's defensive movement, Chen Feng's offense was also with both hands.
Thibodeau once said that Chen Feng's explosive power is terrifying and amazing. Now Ilgoskas is feeling this amazing horror.
The raised hands were pressed back, and the other party's entire downward pressure was completely pressed on Irgoskas.
The impact force made the Lithuanian giant sit on the floor directly, and the guy hanging on the basket had just let go of his hand and fell from the air.
The pain from his feet made Ilgoskas lose his strength to stand up. He had already rested for most of the period, which restored his physical fitness, but this impact instantly defeated him.
The Lithuanian's physique is not the type that can fight with others at all, and both feet have suffered serious injuries. If it weren't for his always floating on the outside, he might have retired due to injuries.
But this time Chen Feng's sudden misaligned attack did not give Lithuanians any room to escape, and rushed towards him, which made Irgoskas have to force him.
As a result, the hard ended up being that both feet suffered most of the impact, especially the sense of oppression during physical confrontation, which directly caused Ilgoskas to collapse.
This guy's nerves were not broken, but his feet could no longer withstand this powerful confrontation. When Chen Feng finished scoring, he could only sit on the floor and cover his ankles tightly.
Chen Feng did not have the intention of hurting people, but this guy's fierce power really made many people unable to bear it, let alone a patient who was already injured.
Who is more ruthless than who!? Now Chen Feng has given his own answer to Mike Brown.
Are you planning to block me? Have you seen the results now?
Come on! Keep blocking me! See who died a little worse in the end!
Faced with Chen Feng's fierce roar like intimidation, Mike Brown is really in no mood to respond now.
Damn! Can this guy be a little more cruel? This time I got up and hurt my main center!
If possible, Mike Brown really has the idea of giving Chen Feng a shuttle.
That guy who committed the evil...
Chapter completed!
