……

The 26-year-old Rondo has reached the peak of his career. This year Rondo will average 13.7 points, 11 assists, 5.6 rebounds and 1.8 steals per game.

Not only the scoring data is the highest in his career, but he also successfully defended the assists title, and was selected as the Eastern Conference All-Star starter.

The score of 89 allowed Rondo to surpass Garnett and Pierce and become the most powerful leg in the Celtics team.

It is worth mentioning that this year Rondo ranked ninth in the regular season MVP rankings, which is the season closest to the regular season MVP in his career.

However, what surprised Wang Zelin the most was that Rondo's rebounding ability was as high as 77, almost approaching the league's top rebounder.

He really wondered how Rondo, who is 1 meters tall, grabbed a rebound. He is not like Westbrook, who has Adams' "one card and eight" card forward...

Back to the game.

The Trail Blazers served the frontcourt, and the basketball was passed to Lillard by Wang Zelin.

After receiving the ball, Lillard moved very steadily to the top of the arc to observe the situation on the field, but this time the Celtics' defensive position was airtight and he couldn't find a gap.

Since the formation of the Big Three, the Celtics' team defense has always been at the forefront of the league, and it ranked first in the league in the first two years.

Although Garnett, the core defensive core, is getting old now, the Celtics' defense still makes the young Trail Blazers a little overwhelmed.

After struggling for a while, Lillard passed the ball to Wang Zelin in the high post.

This time Garnett puts a penetrating shot.

Facing Garnett's long arm, Wang Zelin took a few shots and found that there was no chance, and passed it to Aldridge in the low post on the left without hesitation.

After Aldridge received the ball, he got stuck first, and then tentatively pushed Brandon Bass behind him twice. Feeling the latter's strength, his upper body suddenly exerted force and pressed Brandon Bass down. Si's body, then half-turned to the basket, and wiped the board.

The 2-meter Brandon Bass is a typical short and stocky insider with mediocre defense and flawed defense.

Therefore, after Aldridge scored, his teammates did not blame him.

Changing places to fight again, Rondo dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, facing Lillard's defense, gestured, Garnett and Bass stepped forward to perform a double pick-and-roll, and the players on both sides formed a dislocation.

The man defending Rondo became... Wang Zelin.

"Humph!"

Rondo bent down slightly, ready to fight big.

However, an eye-popping scene happened.

Rondo was just approaching the three-point line, and Wang Zelin...had already stepped back to the free throw line.

At the same time, the other four players of the Trail Blazers also began to shrink inside, setting up pocket formations.

"Vote Rajon, but I bet you have... no bullets in your gun!"

Faced with Wang Zelin's ugly face of "wanting to shoot freely, wanting to break through, there is no way", Rondo cursed in his heart, "MMP!"

Today's Rondo has not yet developed a threatening shooting ability, especially the three-point shooting rate, which is around 20-25% all year round.

Basically, it is to watch God give me a meal!

At this time, all 9 players on the field shrank within the three-point line, and only Rondo was alone in control of the ball outside the three-point line... It was embarrassing!

Is Rondo going to vote?

Immediately afterwards, he told everyone his choice:

It is impossible to shoot, and it is impossible to shoot in this life!

Rondo accelerated his breakthrough, and when he came near the free throw line, Wang Zelin and Lillard rushed forward.

There is no outside offensive threat at all, but Rondo's scoring ability at the basket is the strongest group of outside players, and breakthroughs are his usual scoring method.

Seeing the defender coming up, Rondo quickly split the ball and gave it to Brandon Bass in the high position on the left. The latter made a two-point shot...

"Shh!"

Two point hit.

Accurate mid-range shooting ability is the foundation of Brandon Bass in the league, and he will never let this opportunity go easily.

The ball was not defended well and gave the Celtics a chance, but the Trail Blazers were not discouraged because their defensive strategy was completed.

Let the ball be handled by role players as much as possible, and do not give core players such as Pierce and Garnett the opportunity to exert their strength.

This is an important arrangement of Coach Terry before the game.

……

After his teammates scored, Rondo gave Wang Zelin a provocative look, as if to say: Don't do these fancy things, it's useless.

The Celtics retreated quickly, and the two sides entered a positional battle.

Lillard held the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right, and Wang Zelin, Garnett, Aldridge, and Brandon Bass got entangled in the interior and kept making physical contact.

It's not easy to play inside.

Lillard quickly made a choice: Do it yourself.

Rondo was very tight, Lillard asked Batum to pick and roll, and successfully rushed to the free throw line, Courtney Lee quickly made up the defense, Lillard abruptly leaned against the opponent to complete a turn, and changed hands...

"Snapped!"

It's covered!

Garnett, who was entangled with Wang Zelin, was optimistic about the timing and photographed Lillard's layup behind him. Just as Wang Zelin was about to grab a rebound, a person suddenly appeared before his death.

Rondo!

A point guard dared to come to the center position, and he succeeded.

Rondo sneaked in from under Wang Zelin's arm, stealing the rebound first, and then went straight to the fast break.

The Blazers' halfcourt position now formed a 3-on-2 situation. Rondo single-handedly went to the basket, used his signature fake back pass for a layup, and scored two points.

Can you still play like this?
Rondo really taught Wang Zelin a lesson. He didn't expect that he would become a card forward one day, and in a sense, he was still helping his opponent.

This wave of operations is so smooth, my guide Long!

The Blazers attacked, this time Lillard dribbled the ball and launched a pick-and-roll, and the target of the pick-and-roll was Aldridge.

After the pick-and-roll was completed, the two cut to the inside at the same time, quickly attracting Garnett's defense.

After Lillard saw Garnett take the bait, he turned and passed to Wang Zelin at the basket. Although Brandon Bass made up the defense in time, his height was flawed.

Wang Zelin carried Brandon Bass and made a hook.

Turn back to the Celtics offense.

This time there was no misplaced defense, and Rondo faced Lillard.

However, Lillard did even more outrageously than Wang Zelin, and retreated directly to the three-second zone there.

I really look down on the shooting directed by me, Long!

But no matter what, Jialong is also a three-time All-Star player and the starting point guard of the championship team at any rate. With a firm belief in his heart, he will never waver and keep going down.

If there is no bullet, there will be no bullet, and I will not shoot if I am killed!

Rondo rushed inside quickly, and Garnett and Brandon Bass quickly pulled away to make room for Rondo.

Lillard quickly left the three-second zone and blocked Rondo's advance route.

Rondo suddenly slammed on the brakes and made a sudden stop to shoot two points.

Compared with the bad three-pointer, Rondo's mid-range shot is much more reliable, and it has passed... 30%.

Hmm, it's pretty solid indeed.

Lillard was successfully deceived, and Rondo turned around and threw it... "Snap!"

"Come here! We are waiting for you!"

The ball was taken away by Wang Zelin, who had been waiting for a long time, and flew in the direction of Batum. After receiving the ball, the latter went to the frontcourt to assist Aldridge for a layup.

"Beautiful hat!"

Reggie Miller, who was in charge of explaining the normal game, spoke to the camera very excitedly.

"A good shot indeed!"

Kenny Smith, who was traveling with him, also nodded.

The game between the Celtics and the Trail Blazers was a full-meter live broadcast. Charles Barkley was ill again. The commentators sent by TNT were Kenny Smith and Reggie Miller.

……

The Celtics served from the bottom line. Facing the repeated empties of the Blazers, Rondo was very calm. He stretched out his right hand to signal his teammates to run tactics, and he dribbled inward.

Pierce made an off-the-ball run from the left baseline, crossing to a 45-degree angle on the right.

Wang Zelin stepped forward to defend, but was blocked by Garnett, and Pierce received a sudden point from Rondo.

Big open.

After receiving the ball, Pierce made a shot.

Three point hit.

Coach Terry next to him couldn't help shaking his head.

In terms of teamwork ability, the Blazers are still too young compared to the Celtics, and their opponents have repeatedly found their flaws. The team's previous freezing tactics completely failed.

Forget it, let's see Lamaku as their counterattack!

……

Truth's three-point hit instantly boosted the morale of the audience in the North Shore Garden Arena. The audience applauded and cheered deafeningly.

The advantage of the home field is fully revealed at this moment.

"I have to say that in terms of team ability, the San Antonio Spurs are probably the only ones in the league who are better than the Celtics."

"Yeah, very good off-the-ball movement and just the right breakthrough points, the Trail Blazers can't react at all."

The tacit cooperation of the old strong team made Reggie Miller and Kenny Smith in the commentary booth shine.

The two teams played inextricably from the beginning to the present, until the official timeout, the score was 14:13, and the Trail Blazers took a weak lead with a three-pointer from Lillard's outside line.

The timeout ended, and the starting centers of both teams were replaced... They are all treasures, and they are useful and cherished.

Then took the lineup of half main force and half substitute.

The first attack back from the timeout will be carried out by the Celtics.

According to the offensive tactics developed by Celtics coach Doc Rivers, the main player is Pierce.

Pierce circled from the bottom corner to the top of the arc and received a pass from Rondo, who immediately screened and gave him a chance to break through.

Entering the paint area, Pierce saw that there were too many defenders in the penalty area in front of him, and quickly passed the ball to Jeff Green, who came off the bench.

As the boss of the original Thunder Three, Jeff Green has a high basketball IQ and is very suitable for the Celtics team basketball.

After receiving the pass, he tricked Aldridge with a fake move and went to the basket for a dunk.

14: 15.

Next, Matthews assisted Batum to score a two-pointer and quickly responded to the opponent.

16: 15.

In the second half of the quarter, the two teams played an offensive wave.

It's just that the Trail Blazers rely more on individual talent, while the Celtics rely more on teamwork.

In the first quarter, the Celtics team made 17 of 9 shots, 3 of 1 three-pointers, and 4 of 2 free throws. They scored 23 points and their shooting percentage exceeded 5%.

The Trail Blazers made 21 of 8 shots, 5 of 2 three-pointers, and 3 of 3 free throws, scoring 25 points. Although the overall shooting rate is not as high as that of their opponents, the three-pointers are better.

The Blazers led by 2 points entering the second quarter.
