This striker is a bit of a monster

Chapter 397 Battle of Tianwangshan, leading by 24 points in the first quarter!
After losing two road games, the Charlotte Bobcats and Boston Celtics are tied 2-2 in the Eastern Conference finals series, although there were some jitters between the two games played at the North Shore Gardens. Factors, the referee's whistle and Zhou Lin's food poisoning incident brought this round of the series back to the starting point. In competitive sports, for the players and the team, there is no excuse to look for.

"The past is the past, no one can really drive the time machine."

Even as the head coach, Larry Brown didn't argue too much for the loss, because he also knew that he must stabilize his mentality now. Facing the cameras of local reporters in Charlotte, Larry Brown didn't explain too much: "We had an accident, and we didn't seize the opportunity, so everything returned to zero, but what we have to do now is to seize the opportunity now."

In NBA games, luck or some uncertain factors have always been a part of the game. Recently, the Heat in 06 and the Spurs in 07, their summits were more or less involved in the game. There were some controversies, but in the end, what everyone remembered was not their vested interests, but Wade's natural descent, the law of GDP's odd-numbered year explosion.

It is really difficult for the Charlotte Bobcats to accept two consecutive boards, but they must accept it, and they have to perform better in the fifth game, and they still sit With home court advantage, the winning percentages of both teams at home are considerable, and the Bobcats, the third in the East, will have one more home game than the Boston Celtics, the fourth in the East, in the next three games that may be played. The existence of advantages.

For the Charlotte Bobcats, there are not many remaining retreats. The battle of Tianwangshan will be the top priority for them to win this round of the series.

On May 5, countless fans poured into the Time Warner Center Arena, the home of the Charlotte Bobcats.

Misha, who wears a huge diamond ring, and Taylor Swift, the queen of entertainment, and the NBA has many interesting statistics. Among them, Zhou Lin's girlfriend Misha attended Zhou Lin's game, and the Charlotte Bobcats were 20 wins and 5 losses , the winning rate was as high as 8%, and Taylor Swift and Misha attended the games together, and they won all five games!

Two beautiful women, also dubbed the 'Lady Luck' of the Charlotte Bobcats.

"I have fully recovered, so we must win this game!"

For the Charlotte Bobcats, there is no way out. As the team's trump card, Zhou Lin failed to save the team in the last game, but in this game, he has no excuses.

In this game, more than 9% of the audience in the entire arena wore T-shirts presented by the Charlotte Bobcats, which read in English: We will be the final winners!
The tone of the entire arena has changed to light green.

This also corresponds to the choice of the Charlotte Bobcats' jersey color for this game.

The arena, which can accommodate more than 1.9 spectators, is almost full of seats.

"Tianwangshan is really here." Su Qun said: "The importance of this game is self-evident. The two teams are relatively close in terms of strength. The Celtics have a more reasonable lineup. The experience of the playoffs is self-evident, and the Charlotte Bobcats have the best players in this round of the series, and they are young and energetic, and it depends on who can have the last laugh in this game."

"In terms of morale, the Celtics did not lose to the Charlotte Bobcats even though they were on the road. In this game, I also hope that the Charlotte Bobcats can seize every opportunity to defeat their opponents."

The lineup of the two teams remained unchanged from the previous game.

Hibbert helped the Charlotte Bobcats win the first possession.

When Zhou Lin touched the ball in the first round, he went straight to the inside, against Pierce's defense, and made the opponent's first foul.

Walked to the free throw line and pocketed both free throws to give the Charlotte Bobcats a head start.

Falling to the defensive half, the Charlotte Bobcats also turned up the intensity. The entanglement between Rondo and Kyle Lowry in the corner almost caused Rondo to lose the ball first. However, Rondo's final pass Still made a mistake. Under relatively high-intensity pressure, the ball passed to Ray Allen went directly out of bounds.

The two also exchanged eye contact, as if saying that the ball should not be passed like this.

As for the Charlotte Bobcats, it was like a new face today. Roy received Zhou Lin's support ball, went inside, made a foul by Kevin Garnett, and scored .

"Today's Charlotte Bobcats started to attack the inside, and they are very determined. This should also be Larry Brown's deployment, but it can be seen that the effect is very good. Pierce and Garnett of the Celtics in the opening stage One got a foul."

Roy also made free throws, and the opening fight against the inside was very successful.

On the Boston Celtics side, Pierce's post-up singles and Ray Allen's outside three-pointers all missed.

In the next three rounds, the Charlotte Bobcats also implemented the previous strategy, which was to attack the inside.

In the three impacts, Lowry's throw was hit, and Zhou Lin made another foul.

At the beginning, there was a wave of 9-0 climax, all of which were scored in the interior. This is also why Doug Rivers can only call a timeout.

"Today's Charlotte Bobcats played really tough, taking the ball and rushing in. This also shows a certain spirit of the Bobcats today. It is going to play hand-to-hand combat with you, Garnett on the inside The defense is good, but after all, his age is there, and he has also suffered injuries this season. As for Perkins, he can defend the inside players and can do well, but his ability to protect the frame is really mediocre."

"All in all, the momentum of the Charlotte Bobcats today is to fight you hard, and I don't want to lose face in front of the home fans. The Charlotte Bobcats lost two games before, and the Charlotte Bobcats lost very aggrieved, and their psychology is hidden. "

The Boston Celtics didn't immediately adapt to the intensity of the game.

However, after coming back, the inside of the Boston Celtics finally responded. Garnett's first consecutive inside offense with Perkins missed, but they both grabbed offensive rebounds, and Rondo cut in. Basket stole one.

For the Boston Celtics, in this game, the pressure they feel, whether it is from the defensive end or the offensive end, has to go up to another level.

The Charlotte Bobcats still implement the concept of breaking through. Garnett, who had already received his first foul, saw Roy rushing in and wanted to block the dunk, so he rationally chose to hide aside. Opportunity to block the ball, but facing Roy who is fully charged, the probability of getting a second defensive foul for this ball is even higher.

This also made Garnett an out-and-out background board.

"This is Charlotte, not Boston, you can't win!"

Facing the 'truth', Zhou Lin said while defending: "Especially when I am healthy."

Pierce wanted to surprise Zhou Lin, but after all, he was afraid of being young, Zhou Lin stuck to Pierce tightly, making it difficult for Pierce to make a shot, and finally threw a three-no-stick.

"Zhou Lin is tall after all, and his jumping ability is not comparable to Pierce. In the case of single defense, it is difficult for Pierce to compete with Zhou Lin, even though he is known as the first-generation offensive kaleidoscope."

"The Boston Celtics are in a bit of a scoring drought, and the score is being drawn quickly. This is the case when the Bobcats didn't shoot a three-pointer."

Looking back, the Charlotte Bobcats completed a wonderful teamwork. Zhou Lin responded with the ball to David Lee at the bottom line. David Lee's footsteps forced the opponent's position to change. In the hands of Brandon Roy in the corner, Roy broke through again and gave it to Zhou Lin. Zhou Lin didn't get the ball and stuffed it directly to Kyle Lowry at 45°. Lowry scored a three-pointer.

With this ball, the Celtics were already very active in defense, but the Bobcats still used their vitality and advantages in moving speed to pass the ball to the most suitable person.

Starting 12-2, the Charlotte Bobcats blossomed inside and out, returning to the home court with a completely new look.

The Boston Celtics suddenly couldn't find the key to attack. When facing Zhou Lin, Pierce could hardly complete singles and needed to cooperate with the pick-and-roll, but Pierce is not a high-quality passer. After the pick-and-roll, he chose Almost all of them were shots, and Pierce was obviously influenced by Zhou Lin, and the quality of the completion was not high.

Looking back, after Zhou Lin got the rebound, he gave it to Lowry. He made a fast break on the third line. The players on the side can only watch helplessly.

Zhou Lin dunked the ball into the basket fiercely!

14-2, the Charlotte Bobcats played an almost suffocating offensive and defensive rhythm.

Even the commentators in the United States were wondering, how could the Boston Celtics be so powerless?

Even though he is as seasoned as the Celtics, impatience is unavoidable under such circumstances.

During Garnett's offensive process inside, he directly bumped into Hibbert and then dunked. After the referee was taken aback for a moment, he immediately called Garnett for an offensive foul.

Kevin Garnett received his second personal foul in less than 5 minutes of playing, so he could only go down to rest and replace him with Rasheed Wallace.

And this substitution did not restore the decline of the Boston Celtics. Today's Charlotte Bobcats players seem to be equipped with mechanical laws, rushing to the inside continuously, and at this moment the Boston Celtics' foul The number has come to the team four times early, and from the next foul, it will be a free throw, which also makes the Boston Celtics dare not get started easily, after all, they will go to the free throw line as soon as they foul.

In the first half of the game, most of the points came from the penalty area. From this point, we can see how tough the Charlotte Bobcats are playing today. You must know that the Celtics' inside defense has always been known as a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. , even LeBron James suffered a lot in the last round and lost.

Since Rondo slipped to the basket and picked up a 2-pointer, it was not until 6 minutes and 23 seconds into the first quarter that Rasheed Wallace, who came off the bench, made a mid-range shot.

While only making 11 of the first 2 shots, there were 4 turnovers, which is unacceptable for the veteran Boston Celtics.

Of course, the most exciting thing for Charlotte Bobcats fans is that the Charlotte Bobcats not only achieved good results in the first quarter by continuously attacking the inside, but also opened the team's three-pointer after the opponent intentionally shrunk the basket. , Zhou Lin's three-pointer, Roy's three-pointer, David Lee's three-pointer.

打到4分11秒的时候，夏洛特山猫队已经是以24-5，领先了多达19分之多。

On the Celtics side, all the players seemed impatient, and the physical contact with the Charlotte Bobcats players was also escalating, and at 3 minutes and 21 seconds, Kyle Roy made the ball after a layup It was thrown to Rajon Rondo, but it might be because he was a little excited, so the force was a little stronger, but Rondo took the ball directly and threw it at Lowry. He thought Lowry was humiliating him.

Lowry could bear it, he just went up and pushed Rondo, and Rasheed Wallace on one side was ready to go early at night. Their own team was simmering, and they were eager to make something happen. Come.

After Rasheed Wallace came up, Zhou Lin also directly pushed Rasheed Wallace away, and the four players of the Charlotte Bobcats all stood behind Kyle Lowry.

"Want to do something? We'll accompany you!"

During the game, Zhou Lin felt a little upset due to the increasing body movements, pointing at Rasheed Wallace and yelling.

The referee pulled away the players of the two teams who were crowded together in time.

Zhou Lin and Kyle Lowry, Rajon Rondo and Rasheed Wallace all received a technical foul.

"This round of the series is reminiscent of the games of six or seven years ago. The physical confrontation at that time was much more intense than it is now. This round of the series is also the hottest of all the duels so far. A set of duels, almost every game will have physical conflicts, and a lot of technical fouls, and the head coach Larry Brown has also been ejected, but this game the Charlotte Bobcats held so much With a big advantage in the game, you must not lose your mind, and the top priority is to win the game."

After a 5-minute timeout, the game continued in less than the last 3 minutes of the first quarter. Although the Charlotte Bobcats lost their touch just like the Boston Celtics, the Charlotte Bobcats The defense is also up, and almost every defensive round, the home fans will shout defense.

In the first quarter, the Celtics only scored a measly 8 points at the enemy's home court, and did not score in double figures in a single quarter.

The Charlotte Bobcats scored 32 points and established a huge advantage of 24 points in the first quarter.
