the great gatsby

Chapter 398 Defense, defense! (Is it too late to ask for tickets at night?)

Boston is a city with very developed scientific research. Even in the world, it is also ranked among the top ten scientific research cities. There are also a large number of scientific researchers among the fans, but this has no effect on Boston's plight. Even those great minds, There is no solution to the current predicament.

In a word - skills are not as good as people!

Boston, which is approaching June, is already getting a little stuffy. Gatsby looked at the sky after getting off the plane. The clouds were very low, and they seemed thick and black. Unable to breathe, Nix and his party quickly got into the bus, and they were relieved under the rescue of the air conditioner. It would be even better if they could freeze half a watermelon.

Not long after the bus departed, a torrential rain hit, and it rained heavily!

After the rain, Boston became cool, but it was also very humid. In fact, the rain in Boston has been lingering for nearly half a month. There are drying equipment in the United States. Whether it is sheets, quilts or clothes, it can be washed and dried. The machine is completed in one step, otherwise it will inevitably appear damp and moldy.

Even so, Gatsby still felt damp all over his body, and felt that the whole city was wet and slippery, which made him look down on this city even more—Gatsby didn't like Boston!

Maybe it's the fact that Boston has been the enemy since he entered the league, or the annoying green color of Boston, or the smell of decay in Boston that makes him feel uncomfortable, well, Boston fans call it the smell of rich people, human beings It didn't feel the same, Gatsby just thought it was rotten.

In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't like it. I won't come to Boston to play anyway. It is acceptable to play a few games a year, especially when the fans in Boston beat the Celtics hard. This is a comfortable thing.

When Gatsby entered the North Shore Garden Arena, the cheers of the arrogant Boston fans stopped. It was wonderful to see the expressions of Gatsby fans. Their eyes showed very complicated emotions. As pure fans, they They admire fans like Gatsby very much. If Gatsby is an opponent, they would hate him so much, but Gatsby's own charm makes them not hate him too much.

Their perception of Gatsby has been changing. In the first season, Celtic fans admired and had expectations for this young man, but by the second season, their perception was disgusting. , hateful, in this season, they hate but also have some fear.

The fans felt ashamed after being afraid. They would be frightened by a young man. Annoyed, they cursed Gatsby without hesitation, and couldn't bear to listen to all kinds of foul language.

The famous sportsman Bill Simmons would not miss such an important game. He was wearing a Celtics clover jersey and stood watching the game like an ordinary fan. There was some emotion in it, but Gatsby's eyes couldn't see much emotion except that they were deep and bottomless.

The Knicks' triplicity is also quite talked about in the league today. As long as they are on the court, they basically don't have too much emotion-Gatsby, Thompson and Leonard.

The insults from the fans are really childish for Gatsby. There are all kinds of people in the world. You can’t expect everyone to be of high quality. If every vulgar person has to be insulted, then Gatsby will be tired I can't beat death, so I just treat it like a breeze blowing over the hills.

Pierce looked at the young man opposite, with complicated emotions in his eyes. He envied the young man's luck. He has been in the league for three years and has already held a ring and two MVPs. He has only had one ring after working so hard. , his career is coming to an end, but the career of the young man in front of him is just beginning.

Where will he reach in the future?He should be the kind of historical superstar that he can hardly match, right?
Pierce sighed inwardly.

After a few days of adjustments, the Celtics finally regained their original vigor. We may not like the Celtics, but we must admire their team temperament. The Celtics have the tenacity, teamwork, iron blood, and many responsibilities that have been passed down from generation to generation. Virtue, and——ruthlessness in order to win by any means!

Game start.

The Celtics' starting lineup continued from the previous game: Rondo, Bradley, Pierce, Garnett and Bass.

The Knicks still have the same Gatsby, Thompson, Anthony, Stoudemire and Bogut who have remained unchanged for thousands of years. Small lineups are generally used when fighting for their lives, and regular lineups are still the mainstay during regular times.

Bogut and Garnett jumped the ball in the middle circle. Garnett finally won the jump for a while and passed the ball to Rondo first.

Rondo's unscrupulous character came out again. He glanced at Gatsby with provocative eyes, and deliberately elbowed Gatsby hard when he broke through with the pick-and-roll. Duo rushed over, Bogut assisted in the defense, and Rondo flashed a backhand layup.

The North Shore gardens are boiling.

Rondo looked much more determined tonight.

0: 2!

Knicks possession.

Gatsby held the ball for halftime, and Bradley came up to bite again. The action was big, much bigger than at Madison Square Garden. After all, this is their home court. Even if the league did not target the Knicks, the home whistle will also be biased.

Gatsby feels it is much more difficult. It seems impossible to get rid of Bradley by relying on his own ability. Only by using the strength of the team can the offense flow smoothly. Gatsby is not the only one who feels this way. , the same is true for other teammates. Thompson and others feel more pressure when running without the ball. The Celtics will not let them smoothly move out of position. They will pull the jersey and block with their elbows. The defender next to them sees you trying to run. In the past, I bumped into you first, and I had to break your rhythm first.

Under such circumstances, it is very difficult to play tactics smoothly. Gatsby simply let Anthony fire first and played with a post-up in the low post, but Pierce also went all out tonight, constantly confronting Anthony with his body, Lian Po Although he is old, Anthony is not easy to play when he is desperate, and he misses a jumper when he turns over.

Garnett carried Stoudemire to grab the rebound, Rondo quickly caught the ball for a layup, was capped by Gatsby, Bass grabbed the rebound and made a strong move under the basket, causing a foul by Bogut and made two free throws , 0:4!

Gatsby broke through with the ball and was flanked by three people. The pass was intercepted by Bradley. Pierce quickly came down and hit a three-pointer, 0:7!

Coach D'Antoni quickly handed in a timeout. The Celtics needed a timeout to stop the momentum.

Bogut and the others were panting, as if they had played a high-intensity game, but in fact it only lasted 2 minutes. One can imagine how intense the physical confrontation was tonight!
