Chapter 56

The Celtics take the lead!

Since Ray Allen made the first three-pointer, the Kettles quickly entered the state of the game. The defensive end defended Jefferson's two waves of offense in a row. Two points away, Perkins made a tip-up at the basket
Less than 4 minutes into the game, the Celtics hit a 7-0 shock wave
Telfair held the ball, looked at Whitman on the sidelines, and signaled with his eyes whether Whitman requested a timeout?Whitman folded his hands on his chest and shook his head gently. He believed that his disciple could control the game on the field. The game has just started now. If it is called a timeout, it will hurt the morale that has been boosted before the game.

After receiving Whitman's instructions, Telfair raised his right hand and issued the instructions for the No. 5 tactic
Timberwolves' No. 5 tactic is the Timberwolves' high-position cover tactic. Zheng Ke and the others started to make tactical moves after receiving the order from Telfair.
Telfair gave the ball to Zheng Ke, who was standing at a 45-degree angle on the left, and then used Jefferson, who came out to cover, to run to the weak side corner of the Timberwolves. After Jefferson made Telfair's off-ball screen Then make a pick-and-roll screen with Zheng Ke, and at the same time, Brewer, who is pulled out, is doing an off-ball screen with Gomez on the right
Zheng Ke used Jefferson's pick-and-roll to break through the middle. Garnett, who was defending Brewer, had to come to help defend Zheng Ke. Zheng Ke found the opportunity and passed to Gomez who was already open in the right corner

After receiving Zheng Ke's pass, Gomez took a deep breath, opened his hand and pushed the ball away.
"Shh!"

The basketball is hollowed into the frame, and there is a burst of net flowers
"Yeah" Gomez was secretly happy. It was not easy to get a three-pointer under the suffocating defense of the Celtics, but before Gomez had time to celebrate, he was pulled back to reality by Whitman's blasting sound, "Defense!"

"Damn it!" Gomez hurriedly ran to the backcourt. It turned out that the Celtics had already served quickly, and their ball handler Rondo had immediately advanced to the frontcourt!
Gomez ran wildly and finally came back in time. Seeing that the Timberwolves retreated quickly, Rondo immediately withdrew from the three-point line and waited for Perkins to organize again.
Rondo stretched out his long ape-like arm, directing the movement of his teammates
Both Perkins and Garnett stood on the right side of the free throw line. Ray Allen used Pierce's cover to get rid of Gomez's entanglement. Zheng Ke had no choice but to shout "change defense" with Gomez!Following Ray Allen, Ray Allen walked to the bottom line and ran 45 degrees to the right with the help of Perkins' cover. Zheng Ke finally bypassed Perkins' huge body and was blocked by Garnett.
Ray Allen received Rondo's pass at 45 degrees. At this time, Jefferson realized that Zheng Ke was blocked. He hurriedly took three steps and two steps, and rushed towards Ray Allen with his teeth and claws!

Ray Allen is still the fastest shooter in the league, still shooting so fast, Jefferson failed to interfere effectively with him
When Ray Allen made the shot, Garnett and Zheng Ke immediately started a hand-to-hand fight under the basket. Garnett was surprised to find that this seemingly "slim" guy in front of him had such a huge power in his body. The strength of the rebounding king will be stuck behind him, unable to move!
Although Ray Allen's shot was not interfered with, the angle was slightly off. After a series of collisions between the basketball and the rebounding ring, it bounced high!
Garnett's four-time rebounding champion is not for nothing. Although Zheng Ke got stuck behind him, the ball bounced too high. Although Zheng Ke occupied a favorable position, although he jumped up , but the rebound was still clicked by Garnett's long arm behind him, Garnett clicked again and put the rebound into his arms

Zheng Ke is very helpless, his positioning skills are not very good, and the placement of rebounds is not too accurate. This rebound in the backcourt is wronged. He is a bachelor. He has to find the lost field. Come!

After Garnett received the rebound, he signaled his teammates to open up space, and he wanted to single Zheng Ke!
"Come on!" Zheng Ke roared in his heart, puffing himself up, and then reached out to hold Garnett's waist. Telfair, who was outside the three-point line, saw that he was out of position, and immediately let go of Garnett, who had no long-range shooting ability. Rondo, come over and double-team Garnett!
"No!" Zheng Ke yelled at Telfair and said, "He can only use jump shots!"

Now, the other players on the field stopped running. Everyone looked at this arrogant rookie and showed him admiration, difference and puzzlement.
Telfair was taken aback by Zheng Ke's yelling. Youdao is an honest man who doesn't get angry, and gets startled when he gets angry. Zheng Ke, who is usually gentle and modest, suddenly yelled at him and really shocked him. , and subconsciously followed Zheng Ke's command.
Garnett was also taken aback by Zheng Ke's sudden yelling, but he reacted immediately and was so angry that his seven orifices burst into smoke. What do you mean I can only shoot a jump shot?One of the most complete players in history is said to only be able to shoot jumpers?And this sentence was heard by the players on the field, how can this make the old man feel embarrassed?

He immediately retorted: "Damn rookie, you are dead!"

After the players pulled away, Garnett immediately played a post-up single. He wanted to use Barkley's performance to tell this arrogant rookie what power is!
"really!"

Seeing Garnett's back-up singles against him, Zheng Ke secretly rejoiced: "Garnett really chose to attack with his back up, and he made the right bet!"

"boom!"

Garnett tensed the muscles on his back, and slammed back with all his strength!The sound of two people's muscles colliding is like
"Yeah!" Zheng Ke snorted, firmly withstood Garnett's impact, and stood on the ground with both feet, motionless like a rock!
"I'll go!" Garnett cursed inwardly. What kind of strength is this? With his weight of more than 250 pounds, 115 kilograms, and the strength of his whole body, he couldn't hit the damn rookie behind him!
"What?" came the light and fluttering voice of the arrogant rookie from behind: "Is this just the power to tickle?"

"Shut up!" "Damn guy, your crappy trash talk is outrageous!" Garnett spewed out a trash talk quickly, then gathered his strength and continued to slam back

Zheng Ke gritted his teeth, the veins in his hands popped out, obviously using all his strength.
"boom!"

Garnett still failed to impress Zheng Ke!
The whole audience was in an uproar. I didn't expect Zheng Ke, who didn't seem very strong, to have such supernatural power!With his size as a small forward, he completely withstood Garnett's back attack from a top power forward in the league!

But all the audience reacted immediately, some of them whistled, some applauded, some hissed and cheered, expressing their inner excitement in various ways!
Garnett's face looked even darker. Seeing that the five-second post-up time was approaching, he had no choice but to choose a turnaround jumper.
"Look," "I'm not wrong!" Zheng Ke didn't jump, he reached out to interfere, and continued to spray saliva
Maybe Garnett's mentality has changed a bit because of what he said, maybe Garnett just used too much force, and he unexpectedly threw an "air ball"

Timberwolves morale boosted!
"It turns out that the Celtics who are number one in the league are not a big deal!" Everyone thought in their hearts.
Taking advantage of this wave of momentum, the Timberwolves played their own style. Jefferson, Gomez, and Zheng Ke blossomed a lot. After the first quarter, they actually played a tie with the Celtics!
After the first quarter was tied at 23, the two sides entered the rotation lineup

At this time, the Timberwolves' substitute McCants suddenly showed his strength. He scored consecutively in front of the Celtics defensive giant Tony Allen. [-] fouls by Len Davis

McCants, who was put on the bench, scored consecutive [-] points and acted like a superstar. Celtics coach Rivers immediately requested a timeout.
"Come on everyone, buy some time for the main players and recover their strength! We are number one in the Eastern Conference. If we lose to the worst team in the Western Conference, then I can guarantee that the headlines of the major newspapers tomorrow will definitely be everyone With a handsome face, everyone will lose face by then!" Rivers said
"Come on, come on, it's still early to decide the outcome, everyone pay more attention to the transfer of the opponent's ball, Tony Allen, show your defense, everyone, pay attention to assisting defense and supplementary defense, show your defense!" Assistant coach Tom Thibodeau cheers loudly
After returning from the timeout, the Celtics' substitutes really stabilized their position, but even though they stabilized their position, the gap in the score still failed to narrow, and the Timberwolves' substitutes still played vigorously.

Until the main force of the Celtics entered the field. The game has entered a fierce stage. After the main force of the Timberwolves entered the field, the gap between the main force of the Celtics and the Celtics gradually became apparent. The lead established by the substitutes was recovered bit by bit. At the end of the game, the Celtics overtook by two points and took a temporary lead of 50 to 48.
