Chapter 262 Fighting the Hole Cards, Determining Life and Death
"Hayward singles Richardson from the [-]-point line."

"I can't get in at all, time is running out, how should he choose???"

"Three-point miss"

"It's still singles, this time it's Rozier vs. Tatum"

"Although the 76ers made an offensive error in the last round, the defensive round still dragged the Celtics into a singles trap."

"Tatum blocks Rozier's layup and the Sixers fight back."

"Brogdon made a floater with Tatum's cover."

6:0
"Pause." Stevens decisively shouted to stop, and a big pit was unavoidable if it continued like this.

"In this situation, the Celtics will miss Irving who helped him at critical moments in the regular season."

Standing between him and Horford

In order to keep Rozier from receiving the ball, Richardson defending him pays attention to his position when running without the ball

Stepping on the air cut route

Facing Hayward on the other side with an open cut, Tatum also gave priority to blocking Easyball's chances.

"You can only attack by yourself now."

"bring it on."

Seeing that the passing lanes were blocked on both sides, Young also began to tease Horford with words to make a singles choice.

Marcus Morris? ? ?

Horford did not choose singles because of the provocation, but instead gave it to Marcus Morris not far away.

hand over the stage
After handing over the ball, Horford turned and walked away, completely emptying out the singles space

Marcus Morris vs Embiid

Accelerate step by step, stop and cast in an emergency
Inability to get to the basket and insufficient offensive ability are the most obvious shortcomings of this Celtics

Effective field goal percentage has also become a key factor affecting the Celtics' game.

{ok}When he heard the cheers from the fans at the North Shore Garden Center, Horford, who had a low center of gravity, immediately withdrew his strength.

start back to your own half

6:2
"Josh, cross next." In order to let Richardson know when to cross and at which angle to cross, Young's cross gesture was deliberately slow.

"Jason, go to the other side." After calling Richardson, Young moved Tatum from one corner to the other.

Arrange everyone's position and run tactics

The sneak attacks and individual singles in the first two rounds could not support the offensive output of the 76ers throughout the game.

As a result, running tactics are an offensive method that must exist to support production.

Cut from outside to inside at 45 degrees
In the first two games, Embiid, who has verified that the low post can't take advantage of Horford, changed his attack mode.

elbow cross
砰

"The basket." Horford, who was blocked by Richardson, quickly called his teammates to return to the basket.

"Where is the person??" Jaylen Brown, who threw away the defender and retreated to the basket, suddenly found that Embiid was not under the basket.

"Bottom corner" Stevens, who was cleared by the bystanders, drew everyone's attention to the bottom corner on the same side
It was Embiid who "disappeared" at the basket

Catch, adjust, shoot
The large open opportunity in the bottom corner gave Embiid the opportunity to adjust that he didn't get in the first two games.

get rid of entanglement, withdraw
Faced with Hayward who was working hard, Yang calmly got rid of the entanglement.

"Swish"

The sound of a three-pointer hit followed.

"Di" the Celtics had just set up their routine and prepared to attack when the referee blew his whistle.

"Defensive foul on No. 21, Celtics throw-in."

"Jo, the playoffs are cumulative and not cleared." Embiid was obviously dissatisfied with the result, and he wanted to have a theory, but the theory didn't look like a theory at all.

"There's nothing wrong with the theory, but you can't make people feel that you're here to quarrel." Seeing that Embiid's anger had subsided a lot, Young stopped blocking.

"Go in, Marcus Morris hits another long two."

After Rozier was covered and Hayward was stuck in a row to respond to the run, Marcus Morris took Horford's hand-off and hit a long two-pointer.

9:4
Brogdon just passed halftime from the left

Young and Embiid ran out of the three-point line one after the other.

quick disassembly
Speeding away before reaching the screen position, this is undoubtedly telling the Celtics that this is a false screen and not a real screen.

big delay

Jaylen Brown, standing behind Young, rushed towards Brogdon immediately
delayed switch
Rozier, who was guarding Brogdon, did not switch defenses, but interfered with Xiang Yang's passing route

switch early
Delaying the switch can only delay for a while, and throwing Rozier in front of Young is too cruel.

I can only switch defenses again and let the nearby Horford defend
cut in

The scrambling of the Celtics defense made it less difficult for Brogdon to cut inside.

Refill defense

The defense was stretched further and Brogdon saw an opportunity.

Hayward is watching Embiid
throw in the sky
Adhering to the principle of giving high and not low, Brogdon boldly gave the pass

"bang"

"clang"

"bang"

"di"

"Offensive foul"

Embiid, who was about to celebrate after dunking, heard the referee's whistle
I just wanted to make a theory, but I gave up when I saw Horford pulling the fallen Jaylen Brown

"Papa, papa, papa," the Celtics fans at the North Shore Garden Center applauded heartbreakingly when Embiid came off the court.

Embiid fouled twice in 4 minutes and 50 seconds, making the 76ers' rotation usher in the first test.

"Fred, Alex"

"Next, you don't have to stick too hard...just combine them"

VanVleet and Burks were called over to Monty Williams.

"Van Vleet replaced Embiid"

"Birks replace Richardson"

"The 76ers did not choose Sabonis Jr., but chose to push Young to the center position."

"Rozier." Uncharacteristically, the Celtics did not let Rozier pass the ball to Horford to run off the ball, but let Rozier control the ball.
"Station to the right" Hayward's air cut line is not stepped on, and it is absolutely fatal when the defensive line is mobilized.

{There is no problem on the right side}
A quick check of the problems on the sides, followed by the middle.

Go out
Rozier's three-pointer with the ball cannot make Young squat inside and wait for his arrival.

However, before
"After your two steps, it's the cover of your left hand, the angle is 15 degrees to less than 30 degrees."

After clearing Richardson's blind spot
Young also came behind Horford and began to adjust his defensive steps
"boom"

"Excellent early positioning, Rozier dove headfirst into Young's shadow"

The long-awaited cage ushered in a "prey" named Rozier

Outgoing ball
Rozier gave the ball to Marcus Morris on the same side of the back before the cage was completely closed
Throw away
Marcus Morris' vision problems caused Young to briefly drop Horford's defense to help.

Outgoing ball
Marcus Morris saw that he couldn't shoot, so he could only hand the ball out

"Give it to me, I'm misplaced." Even if Horford communicated loudly, there was no way to correct the problem that the passer's vision was not good and he couldn't see it at all.

pass to the basket

After one more pass, the ball finally came in Horford's direction
get in place before the pass

From the line to the elbow and to the basket, Young did a good job of checking for omissions and filling vacancies
Next, Horford can only choose to come by himself.
勾手
The fast-handling Horford made a speed that he couldn't usually do
{cannot hit}

Yang, who was positioned slightly to the left on the "right side", moved with the ball while lowering his center of gravity.

grab it and go

Horford doesn't even want to compete for offensive rebounds with Young, who has no flaws in the center's skills.

lightly

flick of the finger

Not interested in rebounding, and at the same time in order to counterattack speed, Young gave the ball to Van Vleet.
