The glory of the basketball gods

Chapter 54 Betting on the Second Half!
The time for the intermission has arrived, and the players of both sides have returned to the field!

Garnett, who was walking behind Pierce, took a step forward, put his arm around Pierce's shoulder and said, "Paul, that guy only scored 5 points in the first half, and it's up to you in the second half to keep that guy's score below 10 points." Bar!"

"It's definitely no problem, let's overtake the score in one go in the second half!" Ray Allen immediately said.

Pierce nodded, but his heart was not easy.He raised his head and looked at the large screen hanging on the field, which recorded the technical statistics of each player.

皮尔斯：10分4个篮板2次助攻0抢断0盖帽；

袁满：5分3个篮板6次助攻1抢断1盖帽。

6 assists. This is Yuan Man's highest assist statistics in a single game in the last three regular season games, and this is only half of the game.

Taking a deep breath, Pierce knew that his burden in the second half was not easy. Although he scored 10 points, he consumed a lot of energy. The rookie he was playing against was Yuan Man, whose defensive skills were not like that of a rookie at all.

In the VIP room of the stadium, Daniel Gilbert took a sip of the red wine and felt that the taste was not bad. He put the wine glass in front of his eyes and shook it gently, and said to the people behind him: "From now on, I will order the red wine from this winery. "

"Yes, Mr. Daniel."

On the sidelines of the stadium, many fans recognized Alba, Hilde and Lively, and many of these fans were their fans, so from time to time, a few fans came forward to ask for group photos and autographs, and let them sit. Sister Hua, who was behind the three beauties, was a little surprised, thinking that she was so famous at such a young age, she couldn't help worrying about Yuan Man's future partner.

The game in the first half was very exciting. There were wonderful dunk scenes on the court from time to time, which attracted the attention of the fans.

After about half an hour, the second half finally started as the fans were looking forward to!
The lineups of the two sides in the second half were the same as the starting lineups, and there was no change. Key still gained Scott's trust and defended against Ray Allen alone.

In the second half, the Celtics took the lead in attacking. Rondo controlled the ball from the outside and patiently looked for opportunities.

"There is only 2 points left, and this ball can be recovered!" Rondo thought of this, and lobbed the ball to Pierce, who occupies a 45° position on the left side of the court.

Pierce, who scored 10 points in the first half, was the player with the most points in the Celtics team. Handing over the first goal to Pierce is undoubtedly the safest choice.

Pierce turned around with the ball and looked up at Yuan Man who was facing him.

"This guy's eyes are different from the first half!"

Pierce noticed that Yuan Man's eyes were full of competition and challenge!
Pierce's jumping ability is average, but Shengzai used his footwork very well when playing. In the first half, Pierce scored 10 points by using footwork and singles.

At the beginning of the second half, Pierce repeated the old trick, dribbling the ball with his left hand very low, sinking his center of gravity, his head almost reaching the position of Yuan Man's chest, and then using his shoulder to open the way and rushing to the basket.

Pierce, who came to the basket, threw the ball to the basket with one hand, ready to make a shot on the board.

Seeing that everything was going very well, Pierce even laughed at himself at this moment, whether he was too sensitive, and the opponent was just a rookie player.

But at this moment, Yuan Man suddenly flew past Pierce, pressing the ball thrown by Pierce on the backboard with one hand!
"Oh~~" There was a burst of exclamation in the arena.

"This guy..." Pierce watched Yuan Man take the ball off the backboard, feeling a little strange in his heart.

"It's okay, Paul, get back on defense." Garnett immediately comforted and reminded Pierce.

"Hey, boy, you did a good job. I'll teach you how to play in the second half!" As a veteran football ruffian, Pierce knew when to say what kind of trash talk.

But this time, Pierce miscalculated. Yuan Man, who was silent about Pierce's trash talk in the first half, actually responded to Pierce this time: "Okay, then come on."

Completely different from the first half, Yuan Man, who was in position, stuck Pierce behind him with one hand, and directly opened his hand for the ball with the other hand!
This action of Yuan Man surprised many people.

"That guy wants to take the initiative to single Paul?" Jamison thought in surprise when he saw Yuan Man asking for the ball.

"Wow, that guy wants 1v1!" thought Alonzo Key.

Varejao, who was going to help Yuan Man in the pick-and-roll, ran halfway, but when he saw Yuan Man preparing to play singles, he turned back, but O'Neill was exhausted.
Scott crossed his arms and stared at Yuan Man and Pierce without moving his eyes.

Gilbert, who was drinking red wine, immediately put down the wine glass that was affecting his sight, and focused on the court with all his attention.

"I'm not mistaken, that's a rookie." "Big Baby" Glenn Davis opened his mouth in surprise.

"He dared to take the initiative to challenge Paul, this rookie is really brave!" Garnett couldn't help but moved a little in the direction of Pierce, ready to defend at any time.

"Well done, boy, I've been waiting for you for half the time, and you finally accepted the challenge!" Pierce was a little excited. After playing for so many years, he finally met this kind of rookie player. Yes, the last one like this was James, the original signature player of the Cavaliers.

Mo Williams did not hesitate and immediately passed the ball to Yuan Man.

Seeing Yuan Man receiving the ball, Pierce immediately lowered his center of gravity, stretched out his left hand horizontally, and pre-positioned the line to defend Yuan Man's right hand breakthrough, while his right hand was raised high and swung back and forth, interfering with Yuan Man's sight.As a long-established star, this goal must be defended. Pierce will never allow a rookie to make mistakes in front of him!

Will he run to the rim for a dunk, or drive and score?Pierce didn't dare to be careless.

With the ball in his hands, Yuan Man turned around without any pause. The moment he faced the basket, he jumped directly on the spot. Using the explosive power of his calves and the strength of his waist and abdomen, he jumped up high, and then jumped at almost the highest point. position, hold the left hand slightly from the side, and throw the basketball from the bottom of the ball with the right hand to the basket!

"This posture" Seeing Yuan Man's attack, O'Neal was shocked!

The wonderful sound of "唰" sounded, and the ball thrown by Yuan Man passed through the basket hollowly and passed the net!

This is McGrady's dry jumper!

At this moment, the hearts of the players who are familiar with McGrady have set off a huge wave!Especially O'Neal and Pierce!
In the previous NBA offseason, O'Neal often trained with McGrady. At that time, McGrady's dry pull left a deep impression on O'Neal. He almost did not prepare for the action and jumped to the highest point to shoot. It is also difficult for a giant like O'Neal to interfere and block shots.

O'Neal once said that if he and McGrady join forces, they will definitely win the championship!McGrady's signature pull-up jumper more or less affected O'Neal's good impression of McGrady.

As for Pierce, this goal is even more shocking!

This is exactly the shot that the opponent made several times in front of him every time he played against McGrady!
"So this is your strength." After being shocked, Pierce felt the excitement he had never had before!

"You wake up, I will bury you with my own hands in the second half!" Yuan Man's mouth showed a rare smile.
