Legend Raiders

Chapter 1225
on the field.

The Celtics and the Spurs seem to have agreed. The core participation of both parties is participation, but they are not the protagonists on the field.

The Celtics have Isiah Thomas, and occasionally add Avery Bradley.

As for Amir Johnson, his offensive ability is really limited, so he won't be allowed to get wet.

The Spurs are also very interesting. The two backcourts of Tony Parker and Danny Green have gradually become the protagonists on the field!

Especially Tony Parker.

When this old man was young, that was synonymous with supercars.

at the moment.

Isiah Thomas, a short man, kept testing his bottom line. If he doesn't teach him a lesson, is he worthy of his title of champion defender?
and so.

Tony Parker turned on the supercar mode as soon as the tactics allowed, and kept sharply rushing towards the Celtics inside.

In order for him to create better scoring opportunities, Duncan and Aldridge pulled out the inside line one after another, giving him enough space to display.

and so.

In just 5 minutes, Isiah Thomas of the Celtics scored nine points alone, and Tony Parker and Danny Green combined scored as many as fifteen points!

It is clear at a glance who is strong and who is weak.

But their leading points are also very limited, only three points.

do not forget.

The Celtics still have Bradley and Amir Johnson.

in this way.

As the official timeout of the first quarter came, in the previous 5 minutes, the role players of the two teams became the protagonists one after another.

Back off the field.

Both Stevens and Popovich paid tribute to the players who had just played well.

The tactics are arranged in this way, and they also completed the task excellently. The next step is to see if they can maintain it.

Because after the role players were released, it was the turn of the core players.

In a game of this level, the key to winning is not just the core thing, but the result of the team's hard work.

After all, both teams are championship-level teams, and if there is any negligence, it will be a defeat.

None of them want to lose to each other, especially the Celtics!

In their first match, it can be said that they were taught a good lesson by the Spurs.

If it weren't for the Spurs team, they wouldn't be so focused and serious about playing the second time.

Can't lose this time!

This is the only goal they set before the game!

But if you want to achieve it, you have already walked out of one-third!

Next, we will look at the performance of Qin Tao and Durant.

Pause back.

The Celtics took the lead in launching a fierce attack!

inside!

As Qin Tao is a somewhat dominant player, Aldridge wants to limit it, which is really not an easy task.

In just three rounds of competition, Qin Tao helped the team win with a complete victory!
On the defensive end, Aldridge was unable to use it, which made Qin Tao's defense very uncomfortable.

The Spurs' inside titans were abolished, prompting them to find a way on the outside.

But with Durant's tight defense, Leonard wants to play, but it is not so simple.

all of a sudden.

The Spurs' dual-core is restricted, making the situation on the court suddenly become more subtle.

And it is at this time that the importance of role players emerges.

Danny Green used the cover of Duncan and his big brothers to hit a three-pointer into the frame around the bottom corner.

It seems that he has maintained his touch well, and he can go in if he gives the ball.

then.

The Celtics are in a bit of trouble here.

Because Durant put more energy on defense, and Leonard's defensive strength is also the top in the league, he was unable to play for a long time, and all three shots were missed.

in this way.

Qin Tao is the only person who can really complete the breaking point.

But Isaiah Thomas will not be unknown.

When Durant was holding the ball and couldn't open it, he used Qin Tao's high position support to quickly get rid of Parker with his own speed, and the catch was a long-range hit!

in this way.

Except for Qin Tao, there were more or less problems with the core of the two teams on the court, and they failed to produce the desired results.

When there was 1 minute left in this section, a slightly confusing picture appeared.

Everyone seems to have forgotten the existence of Duncan.

He seemed to have disappeared, only knowing that he was there, and no one could pay attention to him.

Especially the Celtics.

After Qin Tao played inside, he hardly paid attention to Duncan.

This may have something to do with Duncan not choosing to double-team, which made them all surprised when they realized this after the old man suddenly hit the board consecutively.

But seeing who this person is, they are not surprised.

in this way.

After the first quarter, the Spurs temporarily led the Celtics by two points with a score of 29:27 by virtue of Duncan's performance.

Go to the second quarter.

The two sides began to deploy troops, but this time the Spurs were more stable, still putting Aldridge and Leonard on the court, while the Celtics only had Durant and Isiah Thomas.

As such.

The two sides immediately started a confrontation battle!
After Durant puts his energy back on offense, even Leonard shouldn't try to limit it too hard!

in turn.

Durant also has nothing to do with Leonard in handling some balls.

But the Spurs have one more Aldridge, even if the Celtics have veteran David West, it is difficult to stop their lead.

the second half.

When Qin Tao and the others returned, the situation on the field almost got out of control.

29: 22.

The Spurs were brave enough not to rest Leonard and the others, and it finally paid off for them.

It's just that the second half is destined to be a period of stronger confrontation, and their physical strength will also be marked with a question mark.

Go back to the locker room.

Qin Tao and Durant kept communicating, and the other players didn't stop either.

In the first half of the game, it can be said that it was like a semi-final game, with an atmosphere of tension everywhere.

Although their performance was not particularly severe, every ball must be contested, making it difficult to cool down the atmosphere.

at the same time.

The Spurs showed a completely different side from just now.

If the current Celtics are showing a normal appearance after the quarter, then their current situation is a bit worrying.

Whether it's the young and strong Leonard, or veterans like Duncan and Tony Parker, they are all sweating and seem to be very physically exhausted.

Popovich frowned slightly, worried about the situation of the players.

honestly.

The team has a lot of veterans. Although it will bring a lot of benefits to the team, once they encounter a team like the Celtics, they will be really dangerous after the second half.

If it wasn't for these old guys who have been able to persist for such a long time with their toughness and desire to fight, he would really consider adding a few more players in their prime to the team.

As for now.

Popovich really had a headache.

But when he caught sight of someone out of the corner of his eye, he hesitated for a moment before asking, "Manu, is your injury?"
