Chapter 126 The real rhythm of the nineties!
Billups was chasing after Jackson, but Jackson had already seen six ways, and the ball was directly divided into Mullin's hands.
Mullin took the ball at the top of the arc and took two steps toward the three-point line, then directly shook his hands and found Miller who slipped out of the bottom line.
Barrows, who was following Miller, was blocked by Davis, and it was too late to rush over.
Miller, who was left unattended, shot immediately, hit a 3-pointer, and accepted the gift.
This offensive and defensive round almost became a microcosm of the first quarter of the game between the two teams.
Whether it is Miller or Mullin on the Pacers side, they can't match Lin Long at all. Although they have a strong man like Davis who can match Lin Long in size, but once Davis is against Lin Long, then One of Miller and Mullin is going to guard Barkley again, which is also a disaster if you think about it.
So the Pacers simply lay down and were begged by Lin Long. How to play, how to play, the first quarter of the game almost turned into Lin Long's offensive show, 3-point catch, layup, post-up singles, strong attack at the basket, After grabbing the rebound, Lin Long can be said to be omnipotent.
Throughout the first quarter, Lin Long made 10 of 13 shots, 3 of 4 3-pointers, and scored 23 points, 4 rebounds and 2 assists.
Lin Long's wonderful performance made the fans of "240" at the scene very addicted and extremely excited. The five-member group of Lin Long's girlfriend and parents at the scene even clapped and shouted without image.
And whenever the big screen is very evil and turns the camera to this side, the three people immediately restore their images.
Theron was cold and elegant, Richards was mature and sexy, and Alba was sunny, making all the men on the scene envied.
The Pacers don't fight with the Celtics at all. You, Lin Long, are gods. My side has beautiful screening tactics and off-ball tactics. In addition, among the team's starting five, almost all of them can pass. , everyone can vote.
Jackson is the league's assist king, Mullin's left hand can also send out a scalpel-like wonderful pass, Schmitz is not only accurate and ruthless in the middle distance, but also a good player in assisting the ball.
Except for Davis, who is a pure blue collar, the other four are the kind of masters who give them a gap and can make accurate shots.
Therefore, in the first quarter, although Lin Long came down to earth, Miller also hit 3 3 points, Mullin scored 2, and Schmitz hit all 5 shots in the middle distance, scoring 10 points in a single quarter.
So when the first round ended, the Celtics were just 3 points ahead with 35:32.
During the break between the festivals, Sun Zhengping asked: "The first quarter of the match between the two sides was full of splendor. I believe that all the fans who got up early will find it enjoyable and worthwhile. What do you think of the game and the upcoming games?
Su Jun said: "In the first quarter of the game, the difference between the two teams can be clearly seen. The Celtics have Lin Long as their absolute core. He alone scored 70% of the team's points. The team's defense of him is also worth discussing. They seem to have used something like the Jordan Law on him. Lin Long can score at will, but I'll keep an eye on the others.
"In this case, Lin Long can play very good stats and a perfect game, but it's hard to say whether the team can win. As for the Pacers, Carlisle, a rookie coach, is really eye-catching. They have a perfect team. The tactical system, everyone is closely integrated with the team, and perfectly displays their combat effectiveness
Such a team will be hard to beat!
"So." Sun Zhengpin continued to ask with a smile, "Are you optimistic about the Pacers?"
"No." Su Jun continued unhurriedly: "I am optimistic about the Celtics, and the reason is very simple: the closer to the basket, the easier it is to score. The Pacers score too far from the basket, they are very It's hard to keep it that way for the entire game, or the entire series. But Celtics, there are a lot of ways to score near the rim."
"The other is the issue of physical strength. You must know that Lin Long is a well-known physical monster in the league. No matter how long he plays, he is almost never tired, but on the Pacers side, several main players are 30 years old or even over 35 years old. Veteran, physical problems, may be the final factor to seal the victory in this round of series.99
Between the conversation between the two, the second quarter of the game has continued.
On the Celtics side, veteran Willis and Barkley continued to play, while Lin Long, who had played the first quarter, went to rest.
The Pacers also let Mullin and Miller, the two big shooters, go to rest and replaced two potential players, Jaylen Rose and Antonio Davis.
Smith of CBS immediately said: "To be honest, I was a little surprised to see Antonio Davis and Jaylen Rose playing now, and they are the few of them that I think the Pacers can play against Lin Long. The athletes, but Carlisle let them play at this time, the time is completely staggered with Lin Long, I wonder what the coach is thinking?"
Smith's words are also of Bird's doubts. Bird knows Carlisle very well. It is impossible for Carlisle not to know that letting Lin Long face Mullin and Miller is no different from giving him the score directly.
Auerbach said indifferently: "What's there to guess. Larry, remember. Now is our upper hand, so we don't need to take the initiative to change. After the Pacers make a move, it's time for us to deal with it. 35
Bird nodded, admiring Auerbach's general style, and then turned his attention to the court.
In the current situation, both sides lacked the number one star, but the scene was still hot.
The Celtics' main point of attack became Barkley, who was defended by the Pacers' worst-tempered Dale Davis.
Two brawny men with both muscles in their brains started a passionate flesh-to-flesh collision on the inside.
Buckley pouted his butt and stabbed it in, while scolding in a dirty mouth: "Little girl! What about your strength? Resist it! You are the softest defense I have ever seen. !""
Davis stuck his feet firmly on the ground, and responded without showing weakness: "Fat man! Are you full of fat? Has anyone told you that you are as stupid as a wriggling driver when you hit your back? insect?""
While scolding, Barkley turned around and hit Davis on the back with an elbow, directly hitting him staggering, but unfortunately he missed a basket.
Davis reacted quickly, and immediately turned around, blocking the position, and at the same time a pair of big elbows swung towards Davis behind him without any loss, Barkley grinned in pain, but Forcibly held back and did not call out.
Instead, he snuck at the corner of Davis's shirt with his hand, preventing him from taking off sufficiently when he grabbed the rebound. Then he jumped up from behind Davis, picked the melon from the back of his head, and threw the basketball over Davis's head. Pulled it back, then jumped up and put the basket again without fear, and then scored the ball...
Davis saw that the rebounding ball that was close at hand was grabbed by Barkley and turned into a second offense, but he could not do anything, and said angrily: "Damn! Are you only going to play this kind of underhand trick? Hmm? God didn't teach it. Are you playing fair? Or did your mom not teach you to be a person of integrity?
Barkley smiled and said, "This is basketball! Man, this is basketball! What do you think this is? Happy night with your mom? Be mature, baby!"
Davis and Barkley's trash talk and muscle confrontation filled the entire court, and Jaylen Rose and Antonio Davis also began to show the talent and strength of their future All-star players, relying on their height and strength. The Celtics are overwhelmed inside.
After the team's leading stars all went down, these substitutes and rotation players played more desperately. They don't have the strength and shooting skills of the main players, so they use muscles and a life-threatening spirit to make up.
But even Lin Long, who was sitting off the court, found that after he got off the court, the confrontation on the court was actually much stronger!
Moreover, the ball must be fought. Almost every round, players will fall to the ground.
As for the elbows and trash talking all over the sky, it was even more cruel and not suitable for children.
As for these, the referee seems to have broken the whistle in his mouth, so he can't see it.
Competing with Lin Long in the previous playoffs, in the current game, there really is a feeling that the referee will never blow the whistle without blowing blood or hanging directly on the court.
"Is this the real confrontation in the 1990s!" Lin Long couldn't help but sighed in his heart.
It seems that the round of playoffs with the Cavaliers is at best a regular season snack.
And this round of the series is the real start of the playoffs!
Auerbach saw Lin Long's face a little puzzled, and took the initiative to greet him: "Do you think the confrontation on the field is a bit strange?
"good."
Lin Long nodded and said: "The confrontation is 3.3 more intense than when I was there, I don't understand. 35
"Actually, the reason is very simple." Bird stuck his head out and said: "Because when you are there, a strong confrontation will not only stop you, but also make Mullin and Miller lose their rhythm. So Carlisle chose to attack us, but now When you're not there, Carlisle thinks he can take advantage of the confrontation, so he intensifies the confrontation and reduces the number of rounds.""
"Speaking of Carlisle, this kid is really good. I knew he was in stock, so I didn't introduce him to the Pacers, but let him come to us to work!"
Between several people talking, the situation on the field is still anxious. In this slow-paced and strong confrontation, the scoring efficiency of both sides has dropped significantly. No one was able to play a long series of attack waves to completely open the score.
When the second quarter was 3 minutes, the Celtics scored 6 points and the Pacers only scored 7 points.
At this time, Carlisle took the lead. He sent Miller and Mullin again, but instead of bringing Mark Jackson up, he let Mullin play the No. 1 position. Miller and Rose joined forces on the front line, and the inside line was double Davis. combination.
The height and range of this lineup are weaker than their starting lineup, but it also adds to the stiffness and punch that the starting lineup lacks.
