Chapter 178 Crazy Boston
It is estimated that few coaches can make such an arrangement before Christmas. After all, the NBA's long season will last until April of the coming year. March and April are the critical moments.
Especially many NBA teams always have ups and downs in their performance before and after the All-Star Game. This period is the most deadly. Few teams' head coaches choose to make efforts so early.
The early running-in and mid-term personnel adjustments. When all this is done, it is the time to win the game and grab tickets. No one will consider starting to fight hard with other teams before they are done.
Although not every coach will arrange this, it is true that only at the end of the season, the game and score points are the most intense. At the beginning of the season, most teams are in an adjustment period.
Especially those teams that have just experienced player trading, they must use every game to get along with their players and strive to make these guys continue to make efforts in March and April.
Moreover, doing so can maintain a competitive state and continue until the playoffs. This approach may be more suitable for most coaches' choices.
In the NBA, only four or five teams can do this in each season. They may be able to plunder the winning game at a constant speed throughout the season, and then reach a stage of accumulation and explosion.
In Rivers' eyes, there are not many teams with that qualification now, including the Spurs, Mavericks, and Pistons. Perhaps only these teams can guarantee that they can get the ticket to the playoffs smoothly.
Rivers dares to find another time to make efforts. What he wants to catch is a time difference. He hopes that his offensive can consolidate his ranking in the Atlantic Division.
That's right, the team has just experienced a trade and has not completed the running-in yet. The lineup doesn't look that stable, but this is also an opportunity that Rivers has taken a fancy to.
I didn't settle down, but it can be seen from the game that the newly added players, Spreeville and Novak, did not have any major problems in their abilities, even Novak, would make the best use of them.
Although Weber has not been able to get the opportunity to play for the time being, there is no need to say much about this old guy's practical ability. Rivers has seen it very clearly that Weber is not as old as Lian Po.
It may take another month or two to get the tactical running-in, but what Rivers is thinking now is also very simple and direct. If he hasn't stabilized, then other competitors are also confused.
Instead of waiting for others to start studying you, thinking about you, and then starting to exert force, it is better to take advantage of the moment. When many people are wondering how much combat power the Celtics have, they clench their fists and hit them out!
If you haven't figured out the details, your opponent will be even more confused. Instead of exerting strength in the final stage, it is better to take action now and take advantage of others being confused and get a few wins first. This will be more secure.
In the eyes of others, a bit rash move may be more suitable for the current Celtics in Rivers.
Rivers didn't know if this was a very risky gambling, but he also knew that before Christmas, if he could win in a row, the top eight in the East would definitely be stable.
And the most important thing is that if they can play against the New Jersey Nets at home, if they really kill their opponents, Rivers will be confident that they will send the Celtics to the top in the Atlantic Division.
Although there is still four months left after Christmas, what Rivers needs is to use this opportunity to mobilize the players' enthusiasm.
These little animals are not the kind of conservative conservatives who are scrupulous. As long as they are given an opportunity, Rivers believes that these gangsters can kill any opponents.
Especially now that the team is operating normally, killing the Nets is creating opportunities for themselves!
Rivers cannot guarantee that his team can always suppress their opponents, but this psychological advantage must be established, at least not let the opponent lead the nose when facing competitors in the same zone.
New Jersey and the 76ers have been dominating the Atlantic Division for several years, and the Celtics have always been suppressed. Rivers doesn't plan to taste this taste again. It's time to change it this day.
Rivers dared to ruthlessly tell the players that he wanted to start plundering victory, so don't expect the animals under his command to easily spare any opponent, especially after killing the Grizzlies in a big score, these kids were holding back their energy.
The veterans who just joined are looking forward to having a second spring. What newcomers like Rondo and Chen Feng need is to play their own name.
However, compared with Jefferson and Tony Allen, Rondo and Chen Feng are obviously much luckier, especially the bald wild boy, with Falke behind the scenes, he doesn't have much to do. The old guy's kung fu that fuels the fire is simply a weirdo in the circle of agents.
He dared to give up on his own initiative, and there was nothing that the old guy dared to do. Even Taganian subconsciously wiped his sweat after hearing his polite rejection of Nike's invitation.
"Isn't it too unreliable for me to hand that kid to him?" After all, in Tacanian's impression, Nike is now the well-deserved boss in basketball shoes.
No matter how strong Adidas is, they have to admit that Nike has beaten them to a defeat on the basketball battlefield.
Kobe, the little emperor, any star with a little fame will basically be searched by Nike, leaving only the market for Adidas, and the football pile left together.
However, Falk doesn't care how tragic the battle between these two giants is. In the eyes of standard businessmen like him, the more ruthless the business giants fight, the easier his business will be.
Aren’t you all competing for spokespersons? Are you all competing for stars? I have stars here. Although Falk no longer has the contract of Joe’s leader, the boy he has now is not weak.
Moreover, Falk has not been idle. After completing the contract between Chen Feng and Rondo, he even reached out to Perkins and Jefferson. Those two guys may change their families at any time.
This made Anji even start to be a little wary of Falke. He has been in the NBA for so long, but he is quite clear about how fierce Falke's wrist is. He has collected all of this main lineup, which is definitely not good news.
Especially Jefferson, whose contract is about to expire, if you accidentally negotiate the next negotiation, Angie will meet Falk at the negotiating table, and he has no confidence in defeating that old guy.
But that is all a problem that needs to be solved in the future. Falk's approach to the price made Nike a little unable to sit still because Falk intentionally or unintentionally made the news that Adidas was about to move.
Chen Feng's skin color obviously took advantage at this time. Compared with those old blacks, his market behind him made Nike and Adidas salivate.
Not to mention spending money to sign this kid as a spokesperson, companies on both sides even plan to make signature sneakers for this little guy. This level of importance is not too high.
But Falk did not intend to let go. He needed to keep the heat of this competition fermenting. He even took Reebok and several domestic companies into this chaos.
"I don't need to say much about the benefits of letting them fight for you." This is the very straightforward explanation when Falk told Chen Feng not to reveal who his heart belongs to.
"Well, that old guy is very cunning." Chen Feng never cared about things outside the court. With such an extremely slippery old fox, he couldn't be a manager.
What Falk needs now is the companies that make themselves a pot of porridge, and he also needs Chen Feng to perform more eye-catchingly on the court. The data, at this time, represents the green US dollar.
I don’t know if God heard Falk’s voice or Rivers began to take ruthless measures to win, but in the next seven days, the Celtics directly made three consecutive victories.
These Boston bandits first shot down the Atlanta Hawks at home with a score of 98:90. Neither the "Hawk King" Joe Johnson or Josh Smith could stop these bandits.
Jefferson scored 25 points and 12 rebounds in the inside, while Chen Feng, who was not the main attacker, contributed 15 points and 13 rebounds, but this guy made 4 attacks like a beast.
The first victim was Josh Smith, who always claimed to be a self-proclaimed player. This guy was addicted to this season, but he hit Chen Feng, a guy who was not afraid of death, and was completely suppressed.
Chen Feng's four blocks were all given to the unlucky guy, and they all hit in the third quarter. Originally, Hawks coach Woodson planned to start a full-range counterattack in the third quarter.
As a result, the Eagles, which had just revealed their claws, were completely tragic. Josh Smith took off four times and was shot down. The Eagles' feathers were also pulled out by Chen Feng.
Josh Smith has sequelae in this game. He has never seen this guy dunk the basket again in the next three games. I guess the psychological shadow is a bit lingering.
Killing the Hawks was just the first battle for these Boston bandits. They then defeated the Pacers led by O'Neal Jr. on the away game again. 103:96. Although the score was not big, the scene was always in their hands.
This made the opponent's head coach Carlisle lose his temper. It seemed that the score difference was always in single digits in this game, but the Pacers couldn't catch up with it at just a distance of three or five points.
Before the Pacers' resentment was released, the Washington Wizards who had just arrived in Boston to find a place was defeated by the Celtics. At 115:110, the Celtics won another game at the North Shore Garden Arena!
If they included the game where they played the Grizzlies away, these guys had already won four consecutive games, and judging from this situation, they didn't plan to stop.
Even the media in Boston began to exclaim that after this deal, Rivers' team went completely crazy!
Four consecutive victories! Although the opponent's strength is not particularly strong, the Celtics always take the initiative in this stable performance, whether at home or away!
Crazy, those Boston bandits began to go crazy...
