Chapter 475 Encirclement and suppression of Iverson! 【Subscription】
The tit-for-tat between Iverson and Lin Long added another point of interest to the game. With the end of the pre-match warm-up, ten players from both sides came to the court again for the second game of the series.
For the Celtics who lost a game at home in the first game, this game is definitely not to be lost!
Because once the 2-game losing streak at home, then the next two games to Philadelphia, the difficulty of the game will be unimaginable!
The Celtics must win this game!
The same is true for the 76ers. They were already at a disadvantage and disadvantage. Although they won the first game, it was a victory based on Iverson's superhuman strength and the risk of a serious Achilles injury. , The overall strength they are still not as good as the Celtics.
If they can win another game on the road today, then it will be really stable, and it will really be one foot into the door of the finals!
In this game, both sides of the team are not allowed to lose, and the coaches of both sides did not change their starting roster tonight, and it is still the lineup that they are best at using.
Lin Long once again came to the center line, facing Ratliff, there is nothing to say, Lin Long once again dialed the basketball to Billups' hands.
Billups was not in a hurry with the ball. After confirming that Iverson was defending Sprewell, the basketball immediately came to the hands of the 'madman'.
"Little one, ready for a fun-collision with Daddy's ass?"
Sprewell pressed Iverson with his back, and from beyond the 3-point line, he started to play with his back!
This is Bird's first strategy for the Celtics in this game!
From the beginning of the offense, put pressure on Iverson constantly, consume him, attack him, and let Iverson's physical strength flow quickly in the constant physical contact!
Sprewell held the ball with hard hits. He didn't use the jumper he was good at, and he didn't use his inside steps.
"Bang! Boom! Boom!"
There was a sound of muscle collision, even if Iverson had unparalleled talent and skills on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, his height of 183 cm was a weakness that he could not avoid no matter how hard he tried!
Sprewell crushed all the way to the edge of the 3-second zone, and it was only here that he suddenly turned around, and did not forget to give Iverson a loving elbow in the process of turning!
Then a rebounding shot at the basket, and I want to get two points for the team first!
But the 76ers still have a shot blocker inside!
Ratliff rushes in from the side, throws Sprewell's shot out of the way, and the basketball goes to the sideline!
But another green figure has been waiting for a long time! Lin Long has been around since the Sprewell singles, and this time he also reacted the fastest. After smashing, Lin Long stepped forward with both feet to charge up.
Then, the basketball was put behind his head again, and he jumped up against Ratliff!
Where does Ratliff have Lin Long's continuous bouncing ability, as long as he took it off Sprewell, he had exhausted all his strength, and could only watch Lin Long fly towards him, not at all. Incapable of jumping again!
"Boom!"
After a loud bang, Lin Long abused the frame with both hands, and his whole body was hanging on the hoop. !
One reigns over the world, the other is embarrassed!
Lin Long did not celebrate after the dunk, even if it was a super dunk that could be included in the top ten balls of the playoffs, he didn't move at all, turned around to find Iverson, and posted it!
This is Bird's second strategy.
Lin Long pressed Iverson closely from the first round of the game, not giving him any chance to catch the ball!
Yes, Bird's purpose is not to stop Iverson from attacking, he wants Iverson to do his best to even touch the ball!
Lin Long's entanglement and strong physical contact made Iverson tireless. He continued to run frantically, while Lin Long followed closely, not letting one step, but Iverson was Iverson!
He made two back-runs back and forth with Ratliff's screen at the basket, and then suddenly changed direction and rushed to the top of the arc after a continuous change of rhythm, and took advantage of a Lynch screen near the free throw line, followed by another back-run Moved all the way to the outside of the 45-degree 3-point line.
Seeing Iverson running out of neutral, Snow didn't hesitate to pass the ball directly to Iverson.
After taking the ball, Iverson looked at the direction Lin Long was rushing towards. He didn't rush to shoot. Instead, he dribbled the ball and took another step forward before he suddenly pulled up and made a pull-up jumper!
・・・・Seeking flowers・
"Shh!
Iverson's first shot, the same hit!
"How about Lin? 18 points! There are only 18 points left!" Iverson did not forget to challenge after scoring, and looked proudly at Lin Long, who was chasing after him.
"It's only 2 points, Allen, how many balls do you think you can hit like this? I think it's definitely no more than 5! You'll be tired!" Lin Long was noncommittal, and rushed forward with a smile. The basketball was played by Billup. Sri Lanka passed halftime.
Larry Brown on the sidelines frowned deeply. With his experience and vision, of course, he could see the Celtics' attrition tactics at a glance! They are trying to exhaust Iverson to death!
Brown frowned and said to the court: "Eric, Allen! You two switch! Allen is going to guard Billups!"
When the two heard the coach's instructions, they nodded immediately, then turned left and right to find their defender. Billups looked at Iverson with a smirk, and secretly admired Lin Long. Great no!
Before the game, Lin Long once went to Billups after Bird set the game strategy. He told Billups that Larry Brown would definitely be replaced after Sprewell's success against Iverson. Defensive strategy, there is a high probability that Iverson will play against you!
In order to implement Bird's tactical thinking, Lin Long took Billups and practiced the basket singles for 2 days!
These two days of training have benefited Billups a lot, and solved many of the small problems in the post-up singles.
In addition, Billups was originally a black and tough type of strong man among the guards, and he was a guy who could teach the shooting guards to compete, so he always had a good post-up skills, but because of the ball. Team positioning and coaching arrangements, Billups has very few opportunities to play in the low post!
But now against Iverson, he finally has the opportunity to show his strengths and let Bird see his post-up skills!
Billups leaned on Iverson and laughed, "Aaron, don't you like the smell on Tralier? To be honest, I hate the stench on him too! It stinks! But Chauncey's dad is not like that, your Chauncey dad is gentle and reliable!"
While talking nonsense, Billups continued to crush Billups! Big.
