Chapter 1276 All Stars Are Coming
Boston Celtics home.

Because the Clippers lead their home team by six points here, the fans at the scene are somewhat anxious.

It's not that they didn't have that confidence after winning the championship, it's just that they didn't meet a weak team this time!
to be honest.

To win the championship, any team must beat the strong teams in the league!

They are touchstones one after another, and winning them will also greatly help and improve one's self-confidence.

But it's okay, only some fans seem a little impatient.

As for Qin Tao and the others, as Doc Rivers and the others feared, they are all very relaxed, and they don't seem to be falling behind at all.

this time.

Qin Tao and the others are talking about the All-Star Game.

This year, it will start on February [-]th. The first thing to start is the All-Star Celebrity Tournament, and the Rookie Challenge Tournament to show newcomers a chance.

Then the next day, that is, on February [-]th, there will be an All-Star Skills Challenge.

It is said that this year will be a little more interesting, with big men and small men competing in the same field.

correct.

There is one thing that Qin Tao misremembered.

If Isiah Thomas hadn't said it himself, he really didn't know that this guy also participated in the individual event.

And the highlight of the day is naturally the slam dunk contest.

Zach LaVine, Andre Drummond, Will Barton and Aaron Gordon will compete on the same field.

In this year's dunk contest, Qin Tao was quite impressed.

Because LaVine and Gordon are not only full of creativity, but also very difficult to complete the dunk.

It is no exaggeration to say that if their fame was higher and their influence stronger, it might be a battle of gods!
But for fans who haven't seen a great slam dunk in years, this one will be an intriguing one.

Then there is the highlight of the entire All-Star Game. The All-Star Game will start on February [-]th, which is also the last day of the entire All-Star Game.

From here on, the league goes into a two-day offseason, which can be both good and bad for the players.

One is that 18% of them have been resting since February [-]th, and they have been resting for a week before starting the fight at NO.[-].

And according to the league's schedule, the No. 18 commander has three games to play, and can also give eighty to ninety percent of the players a day off.

NO.19 is completely normal, and the league will have [-] games to play.

After talking about the All-Stars, they entered today's topic.

Even if you can rest for a long time, you can't just relax like this.

Stevens didn't get involved, and let them communicate and discuss the next second half by themselves.

Looking at this group of players, Stevens had a strange feeling, this game is lively!
Qin Tao and Chris Paul walked out of the player tunnel almost at the same time.

The fans at the scene almost came back, and naturally cheered and yelled.

Get into the dugout.

Stevens and Doc Rivers are both making final arrangements.

When I looked at them, I could clearly see that the emotions and demeanor of the two were different.

Although Stevens had some premonitions, his expression was normal.

Doc Rivers feels worse, even a little too much pressure on himself.

Think about it too.

After all, there was a problem with their physical strength. Although they had a lot of time to adjust in half a game, they couldn't recover much in the end, at most they recovered about [-]%.

What worries them most now is that Qin Tao and Durant have been resting for too long!

With their barely exhausted physical strength, they really don't know what will happen when they meet Paul and the others who have exhausted a lot of physical strength.

At least Rivers believes that once the two of them rush up and play well, the Clippers will encounter extreme pressure!
Maybe instead of two quarters, they only need one game, and they may be overwhelmed!

one more.

Although Doc Rivers is a defensive coach, when he coached this team, even if he emphasized from beginning to end, the team's defense was not very good.

at the moment.

This can be said to be the thing that worries him the most.

But what should come still has to come.

With Qin Tao passing the ball to Isiah Thomas, the second half of the game officially began.

frontcourt.

Paul and the others completed their positions early, and did not harass them in advance, because they did not want to waste their energy.

With Qin Tao and the others in place, the Clippers rushed forward one after another.

Their ideas and goals are very consistent, which is to lock them in front of them as much as possible and prevent them from playing cooperation.

one more.

They hope to cut off the Celtics' passing route, so that the space is gradually compressed by them, so as to be able to suppress possible impacts.

But the blame is that Qin Tao and Durant didn't mean it at all. One of the two was on the inside, and the other stayed on the flank step by step.

As for their previous tactics, I'm sorry, but I didn't see any sign of it, they just fought their own way.

Playing this way is also their temporary decision during the halftime break.

They know what the Clippers need. Since they want to restrict Qin Tao and Durant, they might as well give them.

According to the personal abilities of the two, the players they are facing are not opponents at all!
If you want to defend man-to-man, it is almost impossible to limit them.

After they play this tactic for a while, they may need to double-team.

But the Clippers are not stupid. One of the intentions of doing this is to put pressure on the Celtics, and the other is to wait for an opportunity to complete the counterattack.

This is what they are very good at.

To know.

In this season's games, the Clippers' counterattacks almost accounted for [-] to [-]% of them!

Like when Griffin was not injured, he and Jordan Jr., under the promotion of Paul, have created a reputation as the city of lobs.

So when the teammates are busy dealing with their own people, Paul, the only offensive core, is now showing off his power.

Physical problems are hardly a big problem for a healthy Paul.

He is the kind of person who is more troublesome and braver, and now is the time when he is needed.

But last time he was easily handled, Isaiah Thomas will not be so immature this time.

He stepped up immediately to prevent Paul from being too relaxed, just to give him a confrontation.

Who is Paul?

He has encountered countless defenders, and he has stepped over many of them over the years.

If you want to restrict him, then you have to be mentally prepared!
and so.

When Paul began to use his years of experience, skills, and even some inconspicuous little tricks, Isiah Thomas couldn't stand it!
He lost Paul, and Paul took advantage of the situation to show the demeanor of a top defender.

emergency stop.

change direction.

The erratic changes in the center of gravity and rhythm were fully utilized by Paul.

Facing the empty inside line, he easily ended the battle with a small throw.

But he didn't have any joy, but turned around quickly when he landed, and returned to defense with a roar.

He was still afraid that Qin Tao and Durant would charge up!
