Legendary basketball manager

Curry understood, and before the coach could speak, he had already stood up.

Mark Jackson smiled slightly: "Reduce mistakes and get the rhythm back."

"Leave it to me, Coach."

As Curry spoke, he took off his training clothes and walked to the technical table.

With a foul, the game entered a dead ball, and Lowry walked off the field with a look of desolation.

Up until now, he knew that he was not performing well, so he naturally had no objection to the coach's substitution.

With a strong smile, Lowry and Curry high-fived to complete the substitution.

Curry bit his braces halfway, tapped his chest twice with his right hand, then pointed his index finger to the sky and walked onto the court.

On the court, Rajon Rondo, the master of the Green Army, smiled calmly.

He is not afraid of a point guard like Curry who is good at shooting but not good at physical fitness.

In addition to their own strong defensive ability, the Celtics' team defense will also bring great pressure to the opponent.

The game restarted, and the Rockets served from the sideline.

Curry received a pass from George, dribbled to the top of the arc, and began to organize the offense.

Soon, Griffin rushed to the horse and set up cover.

Curry dribbled the ball behind his back, successfully shifting Rondo's center of gravity, and then bypassed the screen.

However, just as he was about to use cover to break through to the inside, Garnett, who came out with Griffin, stepped forward and forced Curry to stop before he started to speed up.

This is the defensive ability of hard special dpoy level!

When the opponent's pick-and-roll tactics are about to take effect, he successfully helps the teammate who is out of position to complete the defense through an up grab.

Curry had no choice but to dribble backwards, trying to open up space with Garnett.

But at the same time, Rondo also returned to the defensive position.

Together with Garnett, he double-teamed Curry!

In the blink of an eye, Mengshen saw Griffin who was going down to ask for the ball.

But Garnett has too much defensive area, and there is a risk of being blocked directly for a forced pass.

Curry had no choice but to look for opportunities while dribbling.

Fortunately, under his butterfly dribbling, Garnett and Rondo couldn't find a chance to steal, so they could only continue to press, hoping to cause Curry's mistakes.

However, this also gave the Rockets other players time to respond.

Soon, McGrady ran back and threw Ray Allen away, and went out from a 45° angle on the right.

Curry looked at the six directions and immediately discovered t-mac, and then used a very freehand ground pass to successfully pass the ball under the double-team.

When McGrady received the pass, there was no one in front of him.

He can even adjust his pace a little bit before making a steady shot.

After the basketball left t-mac's fingertips, it spun at a high speed, drawing a not-so-high but very positive arc in the air...

"Shu~"

Hollow into the network!

At 22:12, the Rockets finally stopped the bleeding!

"Wow, once Curry came on the court, the Rockets' offense was instantly different."

Yu Jia sighed.

"Yes. Judging from this round alone, his creativity is something that Lowry does not possess. If Lowry is allowed to handle the offense just now, he may end up being forced to the sideline by the double-team of the Green Army .”

Yang Yi added.

............

With McGrady's three-pointer into the net, the Rockets also officially sounded the clarion call for a counterattack.

One minute later, Pierce made a shot from outside the three-point line and failed to hit.

After Yao Ming took the rebound, he handed the ball to Curry, and the Rockets took advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack.

Curry quickly passed the half court with the ball. After observing that the opponent was in the middle, he decisively chose to shoot a cold arrow from a long distance!

"Shu~"

The three-point arrow, the flames of hell.

As soon as Curry came on the court, he made Lowry's repeated attempts, but none of them succeeded in chasing three-pointers.

At 22:15, the point difference came to single digits.

It is worth mentioning that in just 1 minute after Curry played, the Rockets had already hit a 6:0 shock wave!

The coach of the Celtics -- Doug Rivers saw the Rockets gain momentum and quickly called a timeout.

............

Celtic bench.

Rivers was not in a hurry to arrange tactics, but let the players drink water and rest first.

"Rajon, Stephen is different from Kyle, you can't defend the old way anymore."

Ray Allen reminded.

Rondo looked up at Big Brother and nodded slightly.

But it can be seen from his eyes that Rondo didn't take Ray Allen's words to heart.

The conversation between the two was also seen by the head coach Rivers on the side.

He inadvertently sighed slightly.

The biggest problem for the Celtics today is not actually the aging of the core players, but the contradictions within the team.

As Rondo grew up, this rebellious and talented guard no longer respected Big Brother as he used to.

Garnett and Pierce are fine. Ray Allen's "modesty gentleman", which is different from the traditional black character, has been displeased by Rondo.

In other words, although Rondo has grown into an All-Star guard, the Celtics did not change from the "Big Three" to "f4", but instead split into two small groups.

And Ray Allen was the one who was gradually isolated.

This problem has become more and more serious since last year's Finals defeat to Los Angeles.

Ray Allen looked at his former younger brother, who seemed indifferent to his suggestion, and was naturally very upset.

But for the sake of the overall situation, he still chose to endure and restrain himself.

Allen turned to look at the Rockets' bench.

There, a young man was excitedly celebrating with his teammates.

[Steph... seems to be a different shooter than me. ]

Ray Allen thought to himself.

Since entering the league, his three-pointers have been regarded as the shooting bible by countless fans, and are often included in the discussion of the best shooters in history.

But Ray Allen's outside shooting, similar to those outstanding shooters in the past, is more of a catch-and-shoot, and basically shoots from the three-point line.

Except when time is tight, he rarely shoots super long-range three-pointers.

And Curry's three-point choice shortly after he came on the court really surprised Ray Allen.

There is a defender in front of him, and there are still about two meters away from the three-point line, but Curry can choose to shoot so confidently.

This kind of shot selection is not available in traditional shooters.

If you have to use one word to describe Curry's three-point shot, it can be "bold" or "wave"!

[Let's try it out...]

Ray Allen thought to himself.

............

The time-out is over and the game continues.

During the timeout, both sides made some adjustments to the lineup.

For the Rockets, McGrady was replaced by Roy, and Yao Ming was also replaced by Tucker.

The Celtics allowed O'Neal to rest and replaced the "big baby" - Glenn Davis.

The Celtics' offensive round.

Ray Allen used his flexible running position to successfully get rid of Roy's defense.

But Rondo didn't pass the ball to him at the first time, but turned the ball to Pierce on the other side.

Allen spread his hands to express his puzzlement, but continued to move.

Garnett set up an off-ball screen to help Ray Allen layup Roy again.

This time, Pierce accurately handed the ball to Allen, who raised the knife and hit a three-pointer.

At 25:15, the point difference came to double digits again.

After scoring, Ray Allen glanced lightly at Curry beside him.

This ball is his declaration of war!

Curry found the opponent's gaze, shook his head and smiled, and then came to the bottom line to catch the ball.

Then, while biting his braces, he organized his teammates to move, and slowly dribbled the ball across the half court.

I don't know if it was a tactical arrangement or Roy was doing something, after a cover between the guards, Curry directly faced Ray Allen!
