Chapter 361 The Curtain Opens

Eight consecutive victories in the preseason. This is the answer sheet handed in by the Celtics. In the confrontation with several competitors in the same district, it is basically a complete victory. Except for the New Jersey Nets who can resist a little, the rest of the teams are kneeling .

Especially the Knicks, who lost almost 76 points in the two games, and then the [-]ers, who lost nearly [-] points in the two games.

The life of the Raptors is not much better, no matter whether it is an all-main team, or a combination of new and old, anyway, the home and away games are lost by about [-] points, only the New Jersey Nets lose a little less, which is also more than ten points .

This attitude of sweeping the competitors in the same region has made the entire Atlantic Division become lifeless. They are now very clear about their position, and it is impossible to compete with the Celtics.

At least there is no hope for this season, unless they can make a big deal at this juncture, and it must be a big deal that involves a few All-Stars, otherwise, this season can only obediently compete for the first place in the division. Two, but this kind of big deal, does that mean you can do it if you want?Then don't dream!

What's more, how many things are involved in this, everyone knows that it is impossible to easily know, how long Angie has been tossing just to get Garnett, multi-party transactions are always nerve-wracking.

Even if those competitors in the Atlantic Division want to turn themselves into giants, they don't have that time anymore. The curtain of the new season is about to start. At most, they are doing fine-tuning and trading one or two people.

I really want to compete with the Celtics in the lineup. I guess I can only wait for the transfer market to open next season. With four All-Stars in charge, this look is not comparable to ordinary people.

Regardless of the record this season, Ainge has made the Celtics the target of much attention anyway, and just selling tickets, Boston has also ushered in a rare wave of ticket buying peaks, and the package tickets are basically sold out.

This is a rare sight for Boston, where the best sales record in the past few years is only [-]%.

Tickets, jersey sales, these things that can reflect commercial value, all because of the arrival of Garnett and the others began to burst into unprecedented momentum, and Chen Feng can always be ranked first in the merchandise sales list.

Even this kind of wastefulness has caused many people to discuss whether it is really necessary to invest more in the teams of the metropolis, and then pay them a large salary while also getting a good rate of return.

At least Angie did this after a busy summer. With the arrival of star players, not only the attention, but also the most affordable economic benefits, this is what surprised other teams the most.

Everyone knows that celebrities can drive consumption, but the benefits of gathering four all-stars together are really amazing!

Even fans of the Knicks said that if New York had this lineup, they would rather max out their credit cards and buy tickets for the best seats on the sidelines. .

Boston seldom takes this kind of star route, but now that it does occasionally, it is already ahead of all the teams. Even if there are teams that can form such a lineup in the future, they can only be imitators.

Anyway, after a summer of tossing, the news effect and the economic effect are also there. The only thing the Celtics need now is to prove themselves on the field. Their transactions are not just for good looks.

The ferocious momentum of the preseason has already shown the attitude of these guys, dare to underestimate them?That's courting death.

So no matter which commentator it is, before the start of the regular season, they have faintly regarded the Celtics as the leader of the Atlantic Division. This is completely a gap in strength, and there is no room for you to resist.

The New Jersey Nets and Raptors may still have a chance to save face at home, but if they fight for the whole season, it is estimated that the Nets, who are already facing the trouble of aging players, and Bursh, who has always been unable to escape the fate of being restrained, will not be found. With the opportunity to counterattack, against the Celtics, they can only accept their fate.

Although they say they want to strive for the best record in the regular season, those opponents in the same district as the Celtics understand that this season they can only be a foil, and if they want to steal Boston's limelight, it will be a miracle.

You can only understand where the gap is if you fight with them with real knives and guns. Besides, Rivers has been training soldiers all the time. He really didn't go all out to beat anyone to death, but you can't stand training with this lineup!

Now the competitors in the Atlantic Division are all ready to settle for the next best thing. There is absolutely no way to compete for the top spot this season. If they really want to fight back, they can only silently accumulate their strength.

At least at the end of the preseason, the competition between the Raptors and the Nets is more obvious. Whether they can make it to the playoffs depends on the relationship between the two teams.

But for the Celtics' deterrence in this division, I'm afraid the preseason has conveyed enough.

However, some people pointed out in the newspaper that the preseason is just training before the start of the regular season. At this point in time, no matter how good the results are, it is just a show, which does not represent the direction after the regular season.

At this stage, most teams focus on training and adjusting the lineup, and rarely fight to the death with real knives and guns.

Of course, the people who said these words must have rarely watched Celtics games, and their own imagination is enough. They must not know that the Nets and Raptors have also struggled desperately.

It's just that in the face of the chaotic offensive firepower, any struggle can only bring about more fierce suppression. The collision in the preseason has already left a lot of psychological shadow on these two teams .

Especially the Raptors, I thought that after being tempered in the playoffs, it should be their turn to rise, but before I can get wild, the Celtics' green madness has already overwhelmed these guys.

Now the Raptors are just like those unlucky ghosts in the late Cretaceous period. They want to dominate, but the reality no longer allows them. They can only stand by the side, helplessly watching their replacements, and stepping over them.

It's just that these personal feelings, whether it is the Nets or the Raptors, will not take the initiative to tell others.

They lost, but whether they had the strength to resist or were really defeated, only they knew it themselves, and the impression left to the outside world was that they were training soldiers and did not choose to fight to the end.

In fact, there are not a few people who hold this view, and there have been such examples in previous years. The preseason game killed the Quartet, and then entered the regular season stage, and then began to make mistakes. The entire team's season explosion period was concentrated in the preseason game. Yes, after being figured out by the opponent's tactical play and staffing, he never slowed down.

Even if they can play smoothly in the regular season, there are also some who are beaten in the playoffs. Look at the Mavericks last season, they were the first in the regular season, but what about the final result?

Hadn't he been beaten and run away after meeting old Nelson and his Golden State gang, and made the other party's black eight legend, and then he himself became the laughing stock of everyone, this kind of thing has actually happened many times.

The playoffs are the battleground. The previous battles are nothing but accumulation. Therefore, before the playoffs, any results are given for nothing. Except for the home court advantage, the rest are nothing.

The Mavericks also have home court advantage, should they lose or not lose in a mess?Does it make a difference?So killing all sides in the preseason, it has nothing to do with whether they can successfully reach the finals.

Therefore, the Celtics' eight-game winning streak in the regular season did not cause much movement, but with all-stars such as Garnett and Ray Allen, Boston has always been dazzling in the summer news.

It's just that the news effect at that time didn't have much reference value. Everyone also wanted to see what kind of chemical effect these giants would have when they met together, and whether they could achieve wild results in the regular season.

Some gaming companies have even offered odds, betting on whether these guys might rewrite the Bulls' regular season record. After all, after Joe Gang, this may be the most fierce team.

Although Los Angeles has had a combination like f4 before, compared with the Celtics, Boston's guys are obviously more vigorous, and Garnett's performance in the preseason is really impressive.

But the media in Boston don’t have time to make such boring predictions. They also understand that the more people pay attention, the greater the pressure will be. They hope that the team can soar into the sky, but not in this environment Being besieged by more teams as a potential opponent is not something everyone can bear.

But for the predictions of the gaming companies, the opinions of the media are a bit inconsistent. Celtics supporters will think that these guys have the ability to muddy this pool of water in the regular season and playoffs.

Opponents also believe that the Celtics' tactical system has not yet taken shape, and they may not be able to exert the fighting energy they imagined, and suppress all competitors behind them, even if it is only the East.

However, most people still agree that the dominance of these guys in the Atlantic Division is unshakable. No one will deny this, and there are indeed very few who can pose a threat to them.

Other strong teams in the Eastern Division, such as the Cavaliers, Pistons, Bulls, and Heat, how much pressure these teams can put on the Celtics can only know the gap between them when they actually meet.

Just looking at the results of the preseason, it is estimated that no one is as fierce as the Celtics, but more people are still waiting to see if this group of cattle from Boston can fight wildly. .

While all outside parties are speculating, the curtain of the regular season has quietly opened, and the bandits in green shirts who have attracted much attention have also embarked on the journey of the new season...
