Chapter 299
The Celtics were attacking, and their style of play was still the same. After halftime, West gave the ball to Pierce, and then his teammates opened up space for him.

Facing Battier's defense, the latter first dribbled the ball under his crotch and shook his shoulders, found the rhythm and suddenly broke through to the right, and at the same time found a physical confrontation with him.

But Pierce just took a step, then turned around directly, and then chose to shoot a fadeaway jumper.

Battier's interference is already in place, but Pierce's floor kaleidoscope is too strong in terms of technology.

brush!Hit!

In turn, the Grizzlies attacked, and Gomez rarely kept up with Roy, so there was no chance at the second position.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Zhan went to the front court and gave the ball to Gasol. After the opponent got the ball, he broke through without slowing down.

Facing Jefferson's defense during the march, he was like a small man, sticking to the opponent's body and turning around directly to pass the opponent.

This action also allowed him to get to the basket smoothly, and then Gasol chose to wipe the board and make a layup under the interference of Parkinson.

brush!Hit!

The Celtics attack, and West gives the ball to Pierce, who catches the ball 45 degrees to the left.

Faced with Battier's defense, Pierce first broke through and entered the three-point line, and then used his physical strength to push the opponent away.

At this time, Pierce was on the move, and suddenly took a step back to open the space, followed by a coherent backward jumper.

brush!Hit!

In fact, the space just now, up to where Battier was, has been unable to interfere with Pierce.

So it is completely unnecessary to lean back, but this may be a personal habit.

Just like Bosh of the Raptors, he will involuntarily feint a lot of times even if he is open.

The time on the field gradually passed, and as Yang Zhan advanced to the frontcourt with a fast break, he came to the three-point line to face West's defense.

Directly choose a mid-range dry pull, and a jumper shot at the buzzer.

brush!Hit!

The referee's whistle sounded, and the first half ended. The Celtics recovered a lot of points by relying on Pierce's outburst.

But the Grizzlies are still on the road, 57 to 52, temporarily leading the Celtics by 5 points.

The inter-section break will come back soon, and players from both sides will appear on the field one after another.

Nelson sent a regular rotation lineup, Yang Zhan, Jones, Posey, Warrick, Swift.

The Celtics have changed again, and the lineup they sent is .

Point guard: Sebastian Telfair, shooting guard: Tony Allen, small forward: Pierce, power forward: Brian Scalabrine, center: Theo Ratliff.

Yang Zhan quickly advanced to the frontcourt, facing Telfair's defense, directly chose not to slow down and force a breakthrough.

As a lottery pick who entered the league in 04, Telfair is only 1 meters tall, and his weight is even less dominant.

So after the physical confrontation between the two, Yang Zhan easily passed the opponent, and then when he came to the free throw line, Tony Allen on the opposite side came to make up defense.

The two of them have been training for a summer, so they are very familiar with each other. They even greeted each other before the start of the game. In a blink of an eye, you unexpectedly
At this time, Yang Zhan did not choose to play hard, because he knew Tony Allen's single defense ability, so he gave the ball to Warrick who cut inside.

The latter relied on his speed advantage and his personal ability to directly leave the defender Scalabrine behind.

Immediately after that, when Warrick came to the inside, because Swift had a mid-range, Ratliff had already been involved by the opponent, and the latter came in and jumped up to show a back button.

Conversely, the Celtics attacked, and Telfair came to the frontcourt with the ball. To be honest, the opponent has a lot of potential players.

Just talk about the point guard.

West was a junior, averaging 12.2 points, 4.4 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game.

Rondo, a freshman, averaged 6.4 points, 3.8 assists, 3.7 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game.

A third-year player in Telfair, he averaged 6.1 points, 2.8 assists and 1.4 rebounds per game. Of course, his statistics last season were better than they are now.

However, the addition of Rondo this year has shortened the opponent's playing time, so this data will naturally decline.

Faced with Telfair's offense, Yang Zhan chose to defend against shooting and not let go, because first of all, the opponent's speed is the biggest advantage, and secondly, his shooting is not very accurate.

At this time, Telfair, who was holding the ball, did not choose to play singles by himself, but gave the ball to Pierce, who was feeling hot before.

The opponent faced Posey's defense and directly backed him. Battier on the same team couldn't stand the physical confrontation, let alone the weaker Posey.

But when he hit back, Jones went straight up to double-team Pierce.

Anyway, Tony Allen is a player who doesn't shoot no matter how open he is, but he won't stand still, at least he knows how to cut without the ball.

Seeing this, Pierce gave the ball to the opponent, who came to the basket to face Swift's defense.

His offensive skills are really bad. Now that Tony Allen has less physical confrontation, his success rate will increase a little.

But he didn't know that at all. He jumped up to face Swift and went up. He forced a layup and naturally missed the basket.

At this time, his weakness in bouncing was reflected. The landing was too slow, causing the rebound to be taken off by Ratliff who was facing him.

The latter's current position is just right for a direct second attack. When Swift landed and turned around, Ratliff made a quick small throw.

brush!Hit!

As a veteran who entered the league in 95, although he only averaged 12+8 per game at his peak, he has enough experience.

The Celtics attack, and Telfair puts the ball into Pierce's hands, who throws it before Jones can cover.

But the shot itself was a little hasty, the rhythm had not been stabilized, and it was still facing Posey's step back.

Boom!Strike the iron!

Swift protected the backcourt rebounds, and Yang Zhan caught the ball and advanced to the frontcourt, entering the three-point line and hitting Telfair with his back.

Compared with the other two point guards in the opponent's lineup, his personal ability is definitely the weakest, whether it is offensive or defensive.

Needless to say, West in the same year, as compared with the future Long guidance, he is just a few unstable three-pointers.

In terms of breakthroughs, Telfair is stronger, but Rondo is stronger at the end of the basket, and the defense is not at the same level.

Yang Zhan pushed Telfair away with his back, and then made a shooting motion.

The latter's wingspan does not have an advantage in normal matchups, so if he wants to prevent Yang Zhan, he can only make up for it at full speed.

And Yang Zhan was just a fake move. When the opponent just came in front of him, he simply dribbled the ball and accelerated to the right to break through and easily pass the opponent.
