If I were Yi Di in the NBA

Chapter 243 On the Right Track
The Celtics are known as the Big Four, and the starting lineup they can adjust is the fifth position.

Because of O'Neal's injury and truce, they let O'Neal start this time.

Now they have a bunch of famous players, but not many people play.

Frequent injuries are the daily life of veteran players and multiple teams, and so do the Celtics.

Moreover, their troubles of not having a top offensive player are still unresolved.

The Celtics had no other choice, so they got a bunch of veterans to support their appearance.

And those veterans don't have many choices. It is impossible for a young team like the Thunder to give famous old guys a starting position. They have too many potential young people to cultivate, so basically few people are willing to put their face down to the Thunder. Take refuge.

The Thunder and the Celtics met again, and they were fired before the game.

However, Yi Jian was not excited to speak more about Yi Jian on this topic. The reporter's question was just an ordinary regular season cliché.

On the one hand, he has gotten used to the current life, and on the other hand, the threat of the Celtics is actually not that great.

These old guys won't be so useful in the playoffs.

Yi Jian is a very realistic person. Although the Celtics are still a strong team in the league, he won't be so concerned.

After the start of the game, the Big Three also cared a lot. They really wanted to beat the Thunder and give confidence to the old buddy who came to join him.

They're off to a good start, so after the summer break they feel like they're doing it again.

In the first few minutes of the game, their performance was really good and they played very tough.

But after only 3 minutes of hard work, the old Celtics found that they couldn't do it.

Playing against the Thunder is completely different from playing against other ordinary teams.

If the old guys want to stand up, the consumption required is too great, and they can't hold on at all.

"The Celtics this season are really old." Yi Jian sighed.

It's not impossible to match the old and the new, but there are too few outstanding young people. Except for Rondo who can't shoot, they are all old, weak, sick and disabled.

A good team handover should be young people supporting the overall situation, and old stars turning to support.

But the Celtics are definitely not the case. They are mainly fighting with a group of old guys.

This will happen in the history of the NBA, including in the future.

A group of unwilling old guys get together and think they can still do great things.

Before the start of the season, the media will also fan the flames, but you will know when you are old that you are old.

Competitive sports are very cruel. No matter how much a player is at his peak, all he can do is look at his face after his strength declines.

After entering the rotation period, the Celtics played well.

In fact, it is mainly the running-in problem of the Thunder. After Dragic and Matthews started, the scoring ability of the bench has dropped a lot.

Their inside group is mainly defensive. Jeremy Lin still needs to adapt to the NBA for the time being, and he can't let go after getting the opportunity to play.

This is not something that can be done with a few words of encouragement, and it will take time.

In addition, the team's rotation must be redesigned to keep the team's firepower uninterrupted.

The coaching staff still made some attempts, and it is normal to be a little unstable.

Of course, there is also a part of the Thunder's own pride. They have a lot of players in rotation now, and Yi Jian and Durant haven't been playing against them all the time.

After all, they are the defending champions, so things like fucking core players will definitely not be used casually.

Unlike those teams that can only rely on one or two players to throw on the field, the Thunder's strong team style must be established.

While ensuring the record, they also need to train young players.

After successfully becoming a champion coach, Brooks also has greater ambitions.

"The second half is our time, can you still increase the intensity?" Yi Jian asked.

"Of course, didn't we always increase the intensity in the second half until the opponent couldn't stand it?"

"Yi, don't worry, we want to win too."

"Yi, we will never hold back!"

In the second half, the Celtics felt the ultimate defense without any loopholes.

On the other side, a group of stars did not have the strength to tear out the loopholes.

Thunder is different, Yi Jian and Durant broke out at the same time.

As a top team, after the Thunder knew their own and their opponent's state in the first half, the strength of the third quarter was not only improved defensively, but their offensive end was still sharp.

With a two-pronged approach, the Celtics couldn't stand it immediately.

The situation on the court suddenly became tense, and in this case, the Celtics' substitutes could not be opened.

They also only know the strength of defense, but unlike the Thunder, the Celtics can't block all the players of the Thunder.

Superstars, no matter how strong the defense is, they cannot be completely restricted. This is their value.

"Hold on, we are more than that." Seeing that the situation was wrong, Celtics coach Rivers was also a little anxious.

It's just that he can't respond tactically, he can only encourage the players.

The Celtics' players are relatively old and their physical strength is not so long-lasting, so they cannot fight as hard as the main players in the playoffs.

Facing the strong pressure from the Thunder, they could only defend passively.

At the end of the quarter, other points of the Thunder also seized the opportunity to complete the shot, and the Celtics were completely in danger.

Pierce and Ray Allen started to try three-pointers, but only Ray Allen made one, and the Celtics had a big problem with their shooting percentage.

"Haha, what kind of Thunder is the Thunder, and now it's still hammering the Celtics."

"Yi Jian's basic disk is here, so there is no need to worry about them."

"Indeed, Yi Jian doesn't seem to be so aggressive. In fact, he is accumulating strength. He is much more stable now than in the previous two seasons. He usually drives his teammates, and at the critical moment, he turns the table to finish the game. Yi Jian Alliance No.1 is out of doubt."

When the game entered the last 5 minutes, Yi Jian teamed up with Lopez to help the team play a 10:2 offensive climax and win the game in one fell swoop.

[Leading the team to defeat the Celtics, a threatening team, rewards +1 for steals and +1 for passing. 】

Seeing that the basketball attribute has increased again, Yi Jian is also in a good mood.

Taking advantage of the consecutive home games, Yi Jian also participated in several community activities, and relaxed with his teammates a few times by the way.

It's not that he is drifting away, but to make up for the leisure in the summer, recover his energy, and when he enters a tighter schedule, he can go all out and lead his teammates to explode.

Yi Jian is very self-disciplined, but he is not a robot either.

Moreover, proper organization of activities is a bonus for building a good teammate relationship, and he is now more and more experienced.

When he returned to the game, Yi Jian was still the unstoppable superstar.

On November 11, 10 people visited.

The 76ers changed their head coach this season and refocused on defense, which has begun to improve.

The growth of young players such as Holiday has also brought hope to the team.

But it was too early for them to challenge the Thunder.
