against the front

Chapter 290 Miracle and Legend

"I will definitely score this goal!"

Rajon Rondo, who is holding the basketball with one hand and flying in the air, is full of confidence in his attack this time. Although the basketball has not yet fallen off the frame and everything has not yet settled, Rondo can already imagine that he After the dunk is completed, this dunk will sound the horn of the Celtics counterattack, and after the horn is sounded, the Celtics will also enter a new era, one that belongs to Rajon Rondo era!
However, when Rondo, who was flying in the air, was about to smash the basketball in his hand into the basket, and was about to use this dunk to sound the clarion call of the new era, Rondo suddenly saw a figure in a white jersey from the corner of his eye. , appeared by his side, and when this sudden figure waved his big hand and slapped the basketball that Rondo was still holding in his hand, and slapped it away, in a flash, Rondo changed from life to life. The peak fell into the ice cave!

Under the huge impact, Rondo lost his balance. When he fell from the air, he turned his head to look at the figure who blocked his dunk. When Rondo saw Yan Hua who blocked him, Sliding past him and at that time, Rondo, who was still in the air, was dumbfounded before he landed!
I was actually blocked!My dunk was blocked!

Not to mention that Rondo was stunned. Almost all the Celtics players on and off the court, after Rondo's dunk was blocked by Yan Hua, all had dull expressions on their faces. They were still standing on the sidelines just now. Appreciate Rondo's dunk, and prepare to witness a new era of Doc Rivers. His mouth is wide enough to easily put a duck egg in.

"How did this guy suddenly appear there!"

At this moment, Rondo on the court and Doc Rivers off the court have only one thought in mind, that is, how Yan Hua, who was still entangled with Kevin Garnett near the free throw line just now, suddenly Step back and block Rondo's dunk.

Rondo, who lost his balance and fell heavily on the ground, is now full of thoughts about the clip before he was blocked by Yan Hua. If Rondo remembers correctly, when Rondo received a pass from Pierce below the free throw line At the time of the ball, Yan Hua was being restrained by Garnett in the area near the free throw line. As for Ibaka, another insider of the Kings, when Rondo cut towards the basket, he was taken away by Glenn Davis. It's under the basket, so Rajon Rondo will feel confident and bold to dunk.

However, to Rondo's surprise, Yan Hua, who was held near the free throw line by Garnett, retreated back in a very short time and blocked Rondo's dunk!

"Am I dazzled? Wasn't Yan Hua still at the free throw line just now? Why did he retreat to the basket in an instant?
"This reaction speed, and blocking rate, is really unbelievable!"

"If I remember correctly, Yan Hua has already blocked 7 times today, and now there are less than 4 minutes before the end of the first half. According to Yan Hua's current state, it is very likely that he will send out [-] blocks in the half game." Cover!"

When the Celtics fans at the scene reacted and the entire North Shore Garden Arena was in an uproar, the press box on the sidelines also exploded. Almost all media reporters were discussing Yan Hua's incredible defense this time.

"Remember to pay attention to your back!"

Yan Hua, who fell from the sky, looked at Rajon Rondo who was sitting on the ground with a dull expression on his face, and said something with a smile on his face.

Although Yan Hua didn't show any fierce expression when he said these words, but his face was filled with a warm smile like sunshine, but in Rondo's view, Yan Hua's expression at the moment, and the devil from hell, It's no different.

"No one can stop me!" Rondo, who was pulled up from the ground by his teammates, looked at the smiling Yan Hua, and gritted his teeth in response to Yan Hua.

Four years, this year is the fourth year Rondo has entered the league and joined the Celtics. Every young player entering the NBA will have his own star dream, and before participating in the draft, he has already made his mark at the University of Kentucky Rondo is no exception.

In the past four years, Rondo has been following Pierce, following behind the Big Three, learning, improving, waiting, waiting for an opportunity of his own, waiting for an opportunity to make himself famous, become a star, or even a superstar. And now, this opportunity has come, so Rondo does not allow anyone to destroy his once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Therefore, although in this attack with high expectations, Rajon Rondo was covered by Yan Hua's big hat, but Rondo, who refused to admit defeat, will be defeated in the next attack. , and made a comeback again, Rondo didn't want to admit defeat, let alone give up!
Without any cooperation, and without calling teammates for cover, Rajon Rondo, who held the ball at the top of the arc and was released nearly three meters by Kevin Martin, rushed directly towards the Kings basket with the basketball.

Although Garnett tried to lead Yan Hua away from the basket before Rondo broke through Kevin Martin, Yan Hua succeeded when Rondo got rid of Kevin Martin's defense and rushed all the way to the basket. He retreated back and increased his number of blocked shots in this game to eight.

"Although the two rounds can't explain or deny anything, I still want to say that the Celtics' adjustment failed, and Doug Rivers must find another way to deal with the Kings! "

After Rajon Rondo's two consecutive attacks were blocked by Yan Hua, Doug Rivers called a timeout immediately, perhaps to terminate his wrong decision and find another way, or perhaps I want to calm down Rondo, who has become a little rash and restless because of being blocked by Yan Hua.

Just now, when Paul Pierce with the ball in the high post passed the basketball directly to Rajon Rondo who was cutting inside, and let Rajon Rondo attack the King's basket, Jeff Van Gundy had already seen that Greg Rivers' plan.

Taking advantage of the King's defensive strategy of not paying attention to Rajon Rondo, the core of the offense is transferred to Rondo, allowing Rondo to continuously break through to the inside, thus achieving unexpected tactical effects.

Jeff Van Gundy also agrees very much with Doug Rivers' strategy, because the Celtics' tactical change not only easily cracked the King's defensive strategy of emptying Rondo, but also helped Rondo breakthroughs, and constantly put pressure on the king on the inside, so as to achieve the ultimate goal of liberating Paul Pierce and Ray Allen from the outside.

However, Yan Hua's extremely fast retreat and two consecutive blocks turned Doug Rivers' plan into a theory!

And after this "unexpected" plan went bankrupt, Doug Rivers needed to think of another way to quickly reverse the panic and anxiety caused by the tactical failure, otherwise the Celtics would probably be defeated by the Kings. Take the opportunity to play a wave, and then take it away directly.

"Jeff, we all know that this is already very difficult. If Doc Rivers has other tactics and coping methods, maybe he would have used them on the court in the first quarter instead of Wait until now."

After Jeff Van Gundy's voice fell, Bill Wharton, who was sitting next to Jeff Van Gundy, shook his head while continuing to talk about Jeff Van Gundy's topic and continued to say a few words.

"Yeah, it's hard!" Bill Walton said very well. If Doug Rivers had other methods and cards, it would be impossible to transfer the core of the Celtics' offense to Rondo has gone, and now, when Doug Rivers' tactic of breaking and building fails, the Celtics are undoubtedly pushed to the edge of the cliff.

Of course, at the end of the first quarter, the Celtics were already standing on the edge of a cliff, and now, after the Celtics' final struggle and failure, the Kings are only one last game away. Kick the Celtics off a cliff.

After the timeout ended, the Celtics really changed again and resumed their previous tactical strategy, and Rajon Rondo, the new leader who had high hopes from Doc Rivers, quickly fell silent.

And after the game restarted, what Jeff Van Gundy was worried about really appeared. Compared with Rondo's two consecutive attacks on the inside and being blocked, frequent tactical adjustments, the impact on the Celtics players is obvious. Even bigger, Rondo, who had just been given the important task of attacking the core, was deprived of all his powers after 1 minute, and no one could bear it.

And this situation has led to the fact that although the Celtics players on the field want to work hard to maintain the situation on the field and keep the point difference from being further expanded, they have no way to open up the situation on the offensive end. Bite the score on the field.

Doug Rivers obviously underestimated the impact of turmoil on the players on the field, so he looked at Rajon Rondo who frequently turned back and ran on both ends of the offense and defense because he didn't know how to deal with himself on the field, and on both ends of the offense and defense. A chaotic situation began to appear, and Doug Rivers, who was standing on the sidelines, obviously had a sluggish expression.

The defensive end was powerless, and the offensive end was at a loss. Therefore, when the whistle blew for the end of the first half, the Celtics fans of the North Shore Garden players also became a little hopeless before the start of the game. up.

58 to 43. Compared with the first quarter, the king's performance in the second quarter was inferior, and the Celtics' performance in the second quarter was also different compared to the first quarter. Little improvement, but at the end of the first half, the Celtics still trailed by as much as 15 points.

Compared with the disparity of scores on the scoreboard, the situation on the court is the most desperate thing. Relying on the rotation lineup of the main lineup to beat the Kings, the Celtics finally regained some points. After all the king's main players appeared on the stage, they were hung up and smoked by the king. Under this situation, fans who supported the Celtics could not see any hope.

"Jeff, look at the statistics!"

After the first half of the game was over and players from both sides walked into the player tunnel one after another, Bill Walton on the sidelines commentary also got the technical statistics for the entire first half, and when Bill Walton saw Yan Yan After the data in the Hua column was counted, the expression on his face changed instantly.

21 of 15 shots, 9 of 6 free throws, 36 points, 14 rebounds, 9 blocks, 5 assists, 2 steals, this is what Yan Hua handed over at the end of the first half. The whole game is over, and there are still 24 minutes left in the half. As long as Yan Hua works a little harder in the following games, a triple-double is a sure thing. Even with Yan Hua's offensive efficiency in the first half, he scored 50+ The triple-double is very possible.

In the history of the finals, so far, only a dozen players have achieved triple-double data. Even Michael - I am everywhere - Jordan, has not completed a triple-double in the finals. As for the finals 50+ , that's even less, only four players have won 50+ in the finals.

So after seeing that an unprecedented 50+ triple-double is likely to occur in today's game, Bill Walton's mood can be imagined.

"At this moment, we are witnessing a miracle and the rise of a legend!" After receiving the technical statistics sheet handed over by Bill Wharton, Jeff Van Gundy was stunned for several seconds before sincerely saying I sighed for a while, but it's a pity that it's the commercial broadcast time. Van Gundy's sigh can only be heard by Bill Wharton who is closest to him.

"Miracle and legend?" Jeff Van Gundy's words are like sighing when he sees a miracle about to happen, and they are also admiration for Yan Hua's outstanding performance in today's game. After hearing Jeff- After Van Gundy's exclamation, Bill Wharton on the side also nodded slightly.

In today's game, the King not only played a near-perfect performance on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, compared with the previous games, the King's defensive strength has also risen by at least a notch, although the King's defense itself is in the league. At the forefront, but in today's game, everyone can see that the King's defense has improved significantly.

And the source of all this comes from Yan Hua, the king's tactical core. Yan Hua's performance in today's game, if you use one word to describe it, it is "strong", if you use two words to describe it, then It means "very strong", in three words, it means "very strong"!
Yan Hua in today's game is so strong that he is well-informed. Jeff Van Gundy, who is used to seeing big scenes and superstars, can't find words to describe Yan Hua.

As one of the NBA's top 50 players and a member of the Hall of Famer, Bill Walton, who likes to show off his incomparably rich vocabulary in the usual commentary, at this moment, does not know how to describe today's game. gorgeous.

Miracle!legend!
This is the common evaluation given by Bill Walton and Jeff Van Gundy!
