Forward to the basket

The most troublesome thing in the NBA is probably the continuous away games, not to mention the long-distance travel, but the environment of continuous away games is enough to change the spirit of a team from excitement to depression. [Fiction reading!]

Playing an away game is already enough of an annoyance, in addition to listening to the noise of the opponent's fans, you also have to fight to the death with a group of big guys on the field, and the most annoying thing is that you have to sleep in an unfamiliar hotel at night.

Just like Rondo's insomnia at the beginning of the season, his eyes were always dark the next day. This guy was sometimes even suspected by others, whether he would ask a few girls to have a big quilt every night.

Even Pierce teased Rondo and said, "I can't see it, you have a good stamina with such a small physique!"

Rondo's face turned green at the time. Of course, this guy must hate Chen Feng the most, because it was the guy who was so deadly that he nagged when he got off the plane, "Recognize the bed, recognize the bed, recognize the bed..."

Then he really gave up. Not only Rondo, but even Perkins didn't sleep well in the first away game. Rivers was almost ready to buy a gun and just dropped Chen Feng.

But this does mean that in an away game, one should never have a good rest, even if everything is comfortable, there will be other problems, such as..., a passionate girl.

Going out to play games is also beneficial. For example, those guys who love to play nightclubs can always find all kinds of girls to accompany them. Most of the romances in the nba are basically provoked on away games.

There is no way, the group of animals who play basketball, needless to say, their physical fitness, they are all very good, and the secretion of adrenaline is really strong, er, they are also quite hungry in a certain way.

It is estimated that Pierce seldom goes out to play, and the reason is not that he doesn't want to, but he was stabbed more than a dozen times in the wine, which made this guy somewhat resistant to nightlife.

After all, no one likes to go out and cause trouble, and then get stabbed more than a dozen times. If you didn’t hang up last time, it doesn’t mean that you will still be protected by God next time.

But going out to have fun in the away game has probably become a subconscious action of many players. Regarding this issue, even the coach is inconvenient to ask, after all, it is too personal.

Apart from the holidays, the away game may provide you with a hotbed for cheating or picking up girls in nightclubs, but considering the long-distance flight and exhausting games, no matter who it is, it will hate away games.

Even if there are beautiful girls shaking their plump bodies at you, it is estimated that many players are powerless, or put their energy on the bed, and then they may be sluggish on the court.

Just like in the playoffs back then, there were even rumors that many teams used beauty tricks to let the girls at the home court squeeze out their opponents before playing games, uh, I don’t know if it’s true or not.

Anyway, when Magic Johnson was infected with some kind of deadly germ, it was said that he was shot in an away game, let alone having an illegitimate child.

Compared with these off-court factors, the environment and the player's own adjustment ability still account for a large proportion.

What Rivers is more worried about now is the away record. The Celtics' results this season are good, but most of the games against strong opponents are played at the North Shore Garden Arena.

For example, they killed the Suns, Hornets, and Cavaliers, all at home without exception, at the North Shore Garden Arena, except for those fanatical fans who gave them strength with cheers.

Familiar environment, own territory, plus a little madman on the team, once the wild emotions start to explode, few people can beat the Celtics in Boston.

Even those commentators who are always staring at the data have raised the North Shore Garden Arena in Boston to a dangerous level. According to them, this place is difficult to be conquered by others.

"In the bones of the Bostonians, it is difficult to accept the fact that they are defeated at home. Therefore, at home, they have terrible toughness. It is best not to provoke them in the North Shore Garden."

This kind of warning is not the scaremongering of those critics, and the fact is true. This season, the Celtics are indeed rarely overturned at home.

The home performance in the first ten games of the new season has increased by at least [-]% compared with last season. This is also the main reason why the Celtics can squeeze into the top eight in the East. They rarely encounter failures in the North Shore Garden.

Losing to the Mavericks was indeed a lack of strength, but these guys have been pestering those Dallas guys until the fourth quarter. If it weren't for the strength of the opponent's bench players, the final result is actually hard to say.

Although there are also defeats at home, compared with last season, the Celtics' home performance has soared very quickly, which also gives Rivers an extra point of confidence in making the playoffs.

If the home court can get about [-]% of the winning percentage, then the threshold for the playoffs will almost be passed.

However, compared with the success at home all the way, the weakness of the away game has always caused Rivers a headache. Although the recent games have been played well, compared with last season, the away game is also very different.

But beating the 76ers, the Bobcats, or the Knicks in an away game is not an arm wrestling with a strong team. When the Celtics met the Nets and Pistons in an away game, they still suffered a lot.

The strength of the away record is probably a threshold for a quasi-strong team to enter a strong team. If you cross it, you will be flat. If you can't cross it, you will be a local snake at best.

It's still time for the Celtics to comment on whether they are a strong team, but they can't play their own unique characteristics in the away game. This problem really makes Rivers scratch his head.

Moreover, the offensive efficiency in away games has always given Rivers a headache. The team is a rookie, and once they arrive in an unfamiliar environment, they always seem to be very slow, and they often lose their rhythm in the first quarter.

For example, Rondo can often contribute the first assist at home, but once he is on the road, this kid's efficiency will drop by [-]%. Even a guy like West who has played for several years will have this problem.

Not only is the point guard often lost his sense of direction in the away game, but even Jefferson's efficiency in post-up singles in the away game often drops all the way. It is often in the second and third quarters of the game that he can gradually recover his touch.

This kind of intermittent confusion often annoys Rivers, and Pierce and Chen Feng seldom have this kind of problem in away games.

Pierce has been battle-tested for a long time. He has played steadily and seldom has any problems. Even in away games, his data rarely fluctuates greatly.

However, compared with the fierceness at home, Pierce can only be regarded as quite satisfactory in the away game, far less powerful than the offensive firepower at home.

It's just that in terms of experience, Pierce is obviously much more mature. He can control his scoring rhythm without being interfered by opponents, but if it explodes, it is indeed still a bit behind the home court.

Perhaps the only exception is that wild boy, whether Chen Feng is away or at home, as long as he is on the field, you can watch his endless tossing from the sidelines.

Anyway, there is absolutely no stage fright in that kid's brain, or he is not used to this concept, but if he is given a chance, he can turn the world upside down and make the other party want to die.

Uh, of course, this kid also often caused the two coaches Rivers and Thibodeau to have a headache. There is really no way, he is really too worrying, especially when he is on the court.

But now Rivers needs this kind of unreasonable tossing, that's why he dared to let go of using Chen Feng. Since they both have headaches, let's go together. Anyway, I can't let you opponents idle!

However, the problem of the away game cannot be solved by Chen Feng alone. After all, basketball is not a battlefield for one person. What Rivers is now worried about is how to mobilize the entire team.

Before meeting the Bulls, Magic and Jazz in a row, Rivers was still trying to solve the problem of slow away games, but reality gave him a head-on blow.

Before going to Chicago, the Celtics played a game against the Milwaukee Bucks at the Bradley Center. It was not that difficult to clean up such a team that is at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

But the facts have proved that when the Celtics are playing away games, they will always be disturbed by all kinds of strange things. They were overwhelmed by the almost paralyzed Bucks!

At 102:98, it was only 4 points, but it was just 4 points, which was enough for the Bucks to win a home victory after a five-game losing streak. The Milwaukee supporters were almost crazy.

In the past eight games, the score has not exceeded [-], and the opponent has scored more than [-] in [-] games. This is the portrayal of the Bucks' recent downturn, but when they faced the Celtics, they broke out completely.

You can't say that the Celtics are a little back, or bad luck, you can only say that they were very unlucky and ran into a group of cramp shooters.

Just like the Milwaukee team, the Bucks' shooters always go crazy once in a while. Anyway, whoever catches up will be unlucky.

It was only three years after Milwaukee first entered the league, and they were able to win the championship title. This is no longer applicable to the description of shit luck. You can only say that God favors these crazy people too much.

Now this group of guys in Milwaukee have completely inherited the crazy feeling of the original team. If they don't feel good, they really dare to lose. Even the Bobcats can beat them up.

But if the feeling of this group of animals comes up, there is really no way to stop it. Even if God comes, it is estimated that they can only be hit by that kind of crazy shooting.

The Celtics died under this cramp. Those crazy Milwaukee players made 19 of 13 three-pointers amidst the crazy roar of the home fans.

This is called a magic horse hit rate. Even the NBA record is only 27 of 20 shots, but this kind of Bucks player who has played chicken blood just threw 13 against the Celtics.

The problem is not that one person has a high shooting percentage. It would be fine if Michael Reid shot accurately. At least Rivers can target him with man-to-man.

But the Bucks are all accurate, starting with Reid's three-for-three, Mo Williams is also one, this guy is two-for-four, and Ruben Patterson is also a crazy three-pointer. All hits.

Charlie Bell also threw three, plus Blake and Eyasova contributed one each, which made Rivers almost crazy in the end. How can this be prevented?Use man-to-man one by one?Can this be followed?

Not only did he go crazy on the outside, but Bogut on the inside was also excited. Under the shift marking of Perkins and Jefferson, this kid still scored 12 of 6 shots and 4 of 4 free throws.

With such an explosive team, the Celtics are in a hurry. If they can seal this, they will miss that. No matter how they mark people, they will miss a point.

Even if Rivers kept roaring from the sidelines, it didn't work at all. His team was in an embarrassing situation of chasing the score from the beginning.

The outside line was caught off guard by the opponent's bombardment. The inside line, which was able to play steadily and chase points, was a bit out of control this time. The score was quite a lot, but the rebounds were only five more than the opponent's!

Whether it is against the Mavericks or the Cavaliers, the Celtics' powerful inside fighting ability can be regarded as the most troublesome place for opponents.

But in the Bradley Center, the insiders on the Celtics side are completely speechless, not because Bogut and the insiders of the Milwaukee Bucks have caused them a lot of trouble.

That's right, the opponent's inside performance is good, the offensive firepower is not bad, and the rebounds are deadly enough, but compared to the overall strength, they are still obviously at a disadvantage.

But on this damn night, the Bucks were like God possessed. That shot almost made Chen Feng almost collapse.

"This bitch, you're out of your league!", Chen Feng couldn't be blamed for jumping around and cursing, the problem was that this match was really weird.

Players on both sides have followed the magic, whether it is the Bucks or the Celtics, the balls thrown either go directly into the basket or jingle the iron.

The Bradley Center is like a blacksmith shop, it's really clanging, thundering, clanging, all kinds of iron gods!

Coincidentally, Pierce also caught up with a swollen wrist in this game and was not included in the roster. Szczerbiak's ankle was also a little bruised and was not included. Then the others began to fail to make shots.

Missing shots can actually grab rebounds, but this is the weirdness of this night. Missing shots, uh, but bounces far enough, basically the ball that can't get into the basket can bounce several meters away.

Either being picked up by outside players waiting outside the three-point line, or popping out of bounds, there are very few opportunities for insiders to grab rebounds, which is why Chen Feng is most depressed.

I can't grab it at all!The basketball is flying around above the head, and there is no chance for these big guys to grab rebounds and play a second offense at all.

This caused Rondo to grab six rebounds from the outside, and Chen Feng managed to grab 8 rebounds from the inside. This made Chen Feng almost dragged Rondo and shouted, "Your sister! Are you a guard after all?" Still a center!"

Moreover, Chen Feng was probably most annoyed by the basketball that bounced off the rim. The problem is that most shots hit the backboard, but this time it was evil. All kinds of shots basically hit the basket, and then bounced irregularly.

Not to mention that Chen Feng couldn't grab the basket, even with Yao Ming's height and Jordan's bouncing beast, he wouldn't be able to get any rebounds.

That's true, it's not that I don't want to grab it, it's that you guys really don't give me a chance!Chen Feng really wanted to ask his teammates and the crazy shooters on the other side, "Do you dare to throw a shot that can make me grab the rebound?"

But shouting, scolding, scolding, even if they are upset, the Celtics will lose, and Rivers will never think that the opponent's magical shooting percentage is the only reason for the loss.

In the first quarter, the opponent scored 30:20. Except for the magic three-pointer of the Bucks, they were not concentrated, slow to heat up, and lacked momentum. This is the root cause of their loss.

"Go to Chicago in your state! Just wait to be beaten down by the other party! Don't think that you can get into the top eight in the Eastern Conference! You guys are still young and ruthless!"

Rivers seldom says that about his players, but the mental state of these guys and their attention in the game are indeed enough to say.

And if the slowness of the away game can't be corrected, do you really think that the overall strength can stabilize the opponent?

Even if you can beat an opponent like the Bucks, is it possible that facing the strong teams in the East and West, you can first let the opponent lead by more than ten minutes, and then you chase them desperately?Isn't that full of food?

The current Celtics don't have enough confidence to give their opponents a chance. If they let their opponents keep pinching their own life, it would be a dream to take down a strong team away from home.

Don't say that no one gave you this chance, even if it was given to you, you will lose more than ten points if you come up, and you will chase after a fart!

That's the opponent's territory, if you can't hold down your opponent, just wait to be overwhelmed!Rivers is going to beat these bastards in a severe way now!

Don't think that you can win a few games and you will be the boss, you are the second child!The waters of this alliance are deep!Any strong team can dig a hole and drown you!

With a defeat, the Celtics embarked on the most difficult road trip. Rivers didn't know what kind of reaction he would get for this reprimand.

Regardless of the outcome, anyway, this damn road trip has already begun, and the "Windy City" Chicago will be the first hurdle for the Celtics to break through.

The third place in the Eastern Conference is not so easy to play, not to mention that it is still an away game, Rivers is a little bit drummed now, and he doesn't know whether he can win or not.

As for the bastards under his command, he doesn't know if he can play at the level he should be in Chicago. If the problem of the away game can't be solved, then this season's performance, even if it breaks through, is very limited.

Anyway, what should come will come after all, this damn away game has to be chewed slowly, whether it can bite or not depends on the teeth of the Celtics.

Rivers doesn't know if he can get something from these three strong teams, but he hopes that the group of animals under his command can scare opponents.

Whether you win or not only represents the result. Whether you can make your opponent realize your threat is what Rivers values ​​most. If you always let others regard you as a challenger, it can only show that your strength is not enough.

Since you want to make a name for yourself in the East, let everyone start to look squarely at the Celtics now!

Let these guys see the craziness of the Celtics!

This time, starting from Chicago, "The Windy City"?Let's go crazy together...
