The strongest basket king

Chapter 516 The Away Game

The Celtics' starting lineup is a bit short, both inside and out, but they're tough.

The two inside starters, Amir Johnson and Sullinger, are both very strong, and they can also pull out to shoot, although the shooting rate is not guaranteed.

There are still a few young insiders under the Celtics, Tyler Zeller, Olynyk and Jerebko, the height may be a little bit higher, but the strength is not enough, it can only be used as a supplement.

The current Celtics pay more attention to team tactics. The insiders generally use the kind that can move relatively quickly. The style of play is somewhat college-style, but much more fierce.

Compared with the Eagles, who also play as a team, they feel completely different.

And Thomas Jr., who is only 1 meters, is also a master of singles. The Celtics need such a player to make shots at critical moments, so they gave Thomas Jr. enough opportunities.

At the beginning of the game, the situation was somewhat beyond the Nuggets' expectations. Thomas Jr. was not limited to them, but Bradley broke out.

Bradley's first step is very fast, and Middleton will be passed if he fails to keep up.

Of course, the first quarter was mainly because Bradley felt too good. Middleton gave him a little space. He raised his hand and it was a three-pointer. It felt like Ray Allen was possessed.

As mentioned earlier, the Celtics play more as a team, so they gave a lot of singles to the outside and the Nuggets didn't respond at first.

Fortunately, the Celtics' lineup has their problems. Xiang Chu, Gallinari, and Middleton can all hit each other with height, but Jokic feels that his strength is a bit behind.

Now the little fat man often trains strength with Xiang Chu. In fact, he has made great progress compared to the beginning, but he still suffers a bit when he meets players who are good at this area.

Moreover, Jokic's style of play is very flexible, and Xiang Chu's pure strength training method is not completely suitable for him.

Now it seems that he still needs to gain more muscle, maybe fat is also fine, as long as he is a little heavier, his passing and low post will be much smoother.

The key is the issue of movement speed, Xiang Chu thinks that he still needs to hold this kid to practice more strength.

When neither side restrained the other, the two teams were also fighting each other.

After entering the rotation time, Olynyk performed well, pulling out and hitting a three-pointer.

It is more difficult for Nurkic to deal with this kind of inside player.

For the Nuggets, it's not just Nurkic's poor performance. It seems that after leaving the home court, their strength has indeed fluctuated. The Celtics took the lead during the rotation period and gained the lead.

After the main force came on the field, Bradley still has no restrictions on this point. This buddy has exploded.

Although the Celtics' lead did not expand, they maintained their advantage until the end of the first half.

"The limit is reached, the Nuggets players have reached the limit, and the winning streak may be ended."

"To the limit, what a fart, isn't it just a few points ahead, the Nuggets are stronger in the second half, and the strongest is the fourth quarter."

"As long as there is a bully, the Nuggets can continue to win. The Celtics are nothing."

"Don't accidentally injure your friendly team. It's not a bad thing for the Nuggets to lose. They will have back-to-back away games next. The players need to put the burden on their shoulders."

While the fans were worrying about the Nuggets, Xiang Chu was talking to Middleton.

"Don't give three points, don't be afraid of being passed, we are a whole, I give you help defense is a team tactic, I believe you can easily fight back on the offensive end."

Before coming to the away game, Xiang Chu also communicated with George Karl, and felt that it was okay for the winning streak to end, and they should not be too obsessed with the temporary victory.

But in the game, those worries and thoughts have been driven out of Xiang Chu's mind.

He thinks more about how to play better than the opponent and how to win the game.

As a basketball player, Xiang Chu has always been very competitive.

As long as there is a chance, they should win the game. If they don't use the main force, they should do the details better.

In the third quarter, after changing the defensive method, Bradley's offense stagnated.

But Xiang Chu felt that the biggest credit was the halftime break. He felt that Bradley's touch was already a problem.

However, the Celtics have not weakened on the offensive end, and Thomas Jr. has risen again.

Thomas Jr. is too fast, his speed and shots far exceed the average player, otherwise his height would not be able to survive in the league.

In the first half, Thomas Jr. didn't get up in his own state. Now he is starting to explode, and both McConnell and Jeremy Lin are a bit at a disadvantage.

But Thomas Jr.'s weakness on the defensive end cannot be changed.

The body weight is too disadvantageous, and most players can eat him with height.

In fact, the Celtics are now equipped with two guns in the backcourt, but they play more team.

But this time, they really created a lot of singles opportunities, playing small and big games.

The Nuggets played big and small. If the Celtics' two guards didn't feel so good, they felt that it would be impossible to lead, and their defense really didn't work.

When it came to the rotation period, someone from the Celtics stood up again.

This time it's Evan Turner, a midrange dominator of every standard.

Now many fans really think that the Nuggets are going to die. The Celtics are in great shape today. Players continue to stand up and their efficiency is exceptionally high.

The Nuggets' bench hasn't been so aggrieved for a long time, and the away game feels at least ten times worse than the home game.

However, Xiang Chu still did not panic. The Celtics may win the game, but they also have a chance, because the shortcomings of the Celtics are very obvious, and their core shortcomings are also too obvious.

The two strong guards are too short, it's time to expand the defense area.

"According to the established tactics, increase the intensity, and I will take care of other things."

Xiang Chu came on the court 4 minutes after the start of the last quarter, and the team lineup became the starting four plus Jeremy Lin shortly thereafter. This is also the strongest lineup for the Nuggets now.

Their final tactic was simple, pinching Thomas Jr. and forcing Bradley to go inside.

After the Nuggets' defense got tighter, the Celtics discovered how big the area Xiang Chu could affect.

Breaking in is looking for death, but there is no previous opportunity at the three-point line.

The Celtics had led by double digits at most, but once the Nuggets' defensive strength increased, they found it difficult to score.

The Nuggets did not stagnate on the offensive end, and the scores of the two teams can be said to be very close.

It's too strong, it feels like two teams, the Celtics' cover tactics are also good, but it is not very useful at this time, the Nuggets players are not only tall and long, it seems that they have five players on the court. Difference.

What to do, fight hard, just get another outside line, Turner was in good form before.
