453. Olynik Asks For Trouble

The Celtics, who are determined to occupy a favorable position in the playoffs, will go all out in this game.

Today's Celtics, under the training of Stevens, have been quite effective.

There are no extremely outstanding players in the team. The so-called core is just Isaiah Thomas who is strong in offense and weak in defense. There is a whole set of civilian lineups, but their record can still be ranked among the top three in the Eastern Conference. The Celtics rely not on individuals, but on an excellent overall rotation.

The same is true for this game, the Celtics sent Isaiah Thomas, Evan Turner, Crowder, Amir John News and Sullinger's starting lineup.

This lineup, against the Lakers' starters, basically none of them is an advantage.

But the Lakers have Ye Fei, which is the strongest insider in the NBA, and he still has no natural enemies. In terms of personal strength, the Lakers are absolutely dominant. But basketball is not a sport for one person, but for five people to play together.

The game just started, the Celtics gave the Lakers an unforgettable lesson.

The Lakers opened the scoring with Ye Fei, who broke the defense inside and made a hook shot.

It was the Celtics' turn to attack. Although Thomas was the only starting point for their attack, all their players failed to stand still. Everyone moves, and the ball moves with it. In this way, Ye Fei's defensive threat will be weakened a lot, no matter how fast he moves, he can't pass the ball as fast as he can.

After consecutive air cuts, Bradley found an opportunity and hit a three-pointer, 3-2.

The Celtics played very holistically on the first goal, with strong tactical execution. On the defensive end, although Amir John Xun and Sullinger couldn't defend against Ye Fei, they were fighting Ye Fei hand to hand. Both of them are defensive insiders with meat shields. It doesn't matter if they are slow, they just stick to you with their bodies, and they just don't let you score easily.

The Celtics' overall defense line shrank inward, relying on the overall defense, and did not give Ye Fei a chance to catch the ball easily.

After the start, Ye Fei played very uncomfortable, and the Lakers' offense was also affected.

Unable to find a good opportunity, Rondo chose to come by himself. I don't know if facing his old club, he wants to prove his worth. Rondo played fiercely, but he didn't have a stable long-range shot, so he couldn't cause too much trouble for the opponent, but made mistakes again and again.

The Celtics' offense relies more on defensive counterattacks.

With Isaiah Thomas, a speedy defender, their quick counterattack is the best way to score. The Lakers' mistake was to send points to the opponent.

After half a quarter of the game, the Celtics have pulled the advantage to more than 10 points.

The Lakers began to get lost on both ends of the offense and defense. The offense could not be opened, the ball could not be passed to Ye Fei, and they made many mistakes. While the opponent is playing a defensive counterattack, it is impossible for Ye Fei to catch up with the opponent every shot and block the opponent's shot with a big block.

Therefore, the situation on the court was firmly suppressed by the opponent, and the Lakers played very uncomfortable.

Coach Stevens strategized, his tactical quality is much better than that of Mike Brown, and he can't help the Lakers players much.

The problems of the Lakers began to be exposed. In the absence of Kobe, there was no second core offensive point to stand out.

But Ye Fei desperately needs someone to help him share some offensive pressure.

In addition, the Lakers have too few offensive organization points, and Ye Fei can't get the ball. Among the remaining players, only Rondo can organize the offense, but when he is on the court, the opponent can unscrupulously go inside.

Now there is no time to improve themselves for the Lakers players, they can only make adjustments by themselves.

But after two quarters, the other players of the Lakers didn't adjust well.

After the halftime break, they still played very well. The Celtics firmly controlled the rhythm of the field, and the Lakers could only rely on Ye Fei to hold on.

In the technical timeout of the third quarter, Ye Fei returned to the sideline angrily. Looking at his teammates, he finally stopped being silent and broke out immediately.

"What the hell are you guys playing? Tell me! The other three double-teamed me, won't you look for a chance to score points? Don't rely on me for everything, you need to stand up and make a decisive shot if you have a chance, do you understand?! This You can lose a game, but you must play with momentum, cheer me up!"

Ye Fei's angry roar made the Lakers players tremble.

Ye Fei has always been very talkative, but once he goes berserk, no one can stop him.

After returning from the timeout, the Lakers players worked hard.

...asking for flowers...

The Celtics still target Ye Fei, but this time the Lakers finally have a player to stand up.

Clarkson first received a pass from Rondo and scored a three-pointer from the outside.

In the next round, it was Clarkson's air cut again. After receiving a pass from his teammate, he made a layup, attracted the opponent's defense, and passed the ball to Ye Fei on the other side. Ye Fei, who was unguarded, used a heavy dunk to help the Lakers score another two points.

Clarkson's sudden runaway revitalized the Lakers' offense.

The most important point is that he liberated Ye Fei, and the Celtics had to put their defensive energy on him, so the defensive pressure on Ye Fei was definitely not enough.

The Lakers finally began to find their own rhythm and gradually caught up with the score.

But in this game, the Celtics' starting players performed well.

No matter how you shoot, the hit rate is extremely high, and the lead will be maintained.

When it was the turn of the two sides to change lineups and play, the Lakers finally took the initiative. Clarkson went berserk again, scoring 7 points in a row from inside and outside shots, helping the Lakers chase the score to only 3 points

Ye Fei on the sidelines stood up and applauded Clarkson's three-pointer just now.

The Celtics failed to attack. Randle received the rebound and passed the ball to Clarkson, who pushed the ball across the half court.

After Randall followed, he immediately came over to cover Clarkson.

One pick and one roll, the Celtics switched defenses, Olynyk followed Clarkson, a misplaced opportunity.

Clarkson played big and played confidently. He chose to play this ball by himself.

After changing directions continuously, Clarkson took a step back to shake off the defense and shot a mid-range jumper.

Olynyk rushed to block the shot, but he was already a step behind.

He didn't hold back his body, but took another step forward.

Olynik's foot, by coincidence, happened to be placed on Clarkson's landing point. The falling Clarkson stepped on his feet, his body was unstable, and after falling to the ground, he clutched his right foot in pain.

This is definitely a stepping stone on purpose.

Ye Fei was furious instantly and jumped up from the bench.

Is Olynik asking for trouble? .
