Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Boston Celtics players will face a nearly double-digit disadvantage. If they want to catch up with this nine-point difference, for those Boston Celtics substitute players  For us, this is not an easy task.

    In order to give the main point guard Rajon Rondo, who played almost the entire first three quarters of the game, adequate rest, Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers did not pull Rajon Rondo at the beginning of the fourth quarter.  Rondo was sent into the game, and the Boston Celtics point guard on the court was backup Kenyon Dooling.  Without Rajon Rondo's passing organization, the Boston Celtics' offense looked a mess.  On the Boston Celtics' first possession of the fourth quarter, Avery Bradley's long outside three-pointer hit the neck of the basket hard.

    "If the Boston Celtics want to maintain an efficient offense, they can only put their main point guard Rajon Rondo on the court." On-site commentator and Indiana Pacers star Reggie Miller said this  , "However, what Rajon Rondo needs most now is a good rest, so Kenyon Dooling must play harder to win more rest time for Rajon Rondo."

    However, Avery Bradley missed a long-range three-point shot from the outside. The Indiana Pacers substitute power forward Tyler Hansbrough jumped high and grabbed the backcourt rebound. The Indiana Pacers immediately launched  Counterattack quickly.  o.j. Mayo received a pass from Darren Collison and made a mid-range jump shot. The ball hit the net with a "swipe" sound!

    ¡°Now the point difference between the two teams has reached double digits again!¡± said on-site commentator Reggie Miller.

    "It's really getting harder and harder to chase" Kenyon Doolin said in his mind as he took the ball from Michael Pietrus.

    Although the Indiana Pacers are currently playing with a substitute lineup, the Indiana Pacers' substitute lineup is much deeper than that of the Boston Celtics. Only at the point guard position, Indiana  The Pacers are much better than the Boston Celtics.

    Kenyon Dulin dribbled the ball into the frontcourt without any intention of attacking with the ball, and directly handed the ball to small forward Michael Pietrus.  Michael Pietrus received the ball outside the three-point line, faced Paul George, and when he saw that he had no chance to attack, he handed the ball to power forward Brandon Bass inside.

    "It seems they are planning to give the ball to the inside." Xu Nuo, who was sitting on the bench beside the court, thought in his mind.

    ? Brandon Bass turned his back to Tyler Hansbrough and started dribbling for a single.  Tyler Hansbrough used his body against Brandon Bass, making it difficult for Bass to squeeze away from Tyler Hansbrough and get a comfortable shot.  Brandon Bass turned around forcefully, and then took a small hook shot. The ball hit the inside of the basket and bounced back.

    "Damn it!" Brandon Bass cursed in a low voice.

    Indiana Pacers backup center Ronny Turiaf leaped high to collect the defensive rebound and then handed the ball to Darren Collison.  Darren Collison originally planned to launch a quick counterattack again, but the Boston Celtics players on the court returned to defense very quickly, forcing Darren Collison to turn the game into a positional battle.  middle.  Darren Collison dribbled upfield and handed the ball to O.J. Mayo.

    "It seems that they are planning to use O.J. Mayo as the core of their offense. Are they going to bully our Avery for his insufficient ability?" Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers thought in his mind, "But,  Don¡¯t be too happy too early!¡±

    On the court, O.J. Mayo slowly dribbled the ball facing Avery Bradley. At the same time, other Indiana Pacers players unknowingly "cleared" a breakthrough line for O.J. Mayo.  .  O.J. Mayo suddenly started, breaking through Avery Bradley's defense with a cross-step after changing hands at the hip, and then rushed towards the Boston Celtics' basket with the ball.

    ¡°Make up the position!¡± Kenyon Dulin, the point guard, shouted.

    However, Boston Celtics backup center Greg Stimesma's replacement was still a little late. O.J. Mayo broke into the Boston Celtics paint area and faced the Boston Celtics players.  Defensive layup.  70:57, the Indiana Pacers at home are already 13 points ahead of the Boston Celtics on the road!

    And Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers stood on the sidelines of the court with a solemn expression, but still had no intention of requesting a timeout.  "Nearly all the players on the court are substitutes now. Their ability to solve problems is still worse than that of the main players. Coach Doc Rivers had better ask for a timeout at this time" The on-site commentator  Reggie¡¤????ler said this.

    But coach Doc Rivers remained unmoved. After the Boston Celtics players kept passing the ball, they finally passed the ball to Michael who was in the unguarded area outside the three-point line.  ¡¤In the hands of Pietrus.

    "This is a good opportunity to chase points!" On the bench of the Boston Celtics, the four giants Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo all stood up.  Watch this long outside three-pointer from Michael Pietrus.  And Michael Pietrus did not disappoint his big brother. The ball rolled in the air and passed through the net with a "swipe" like a sharp arrow.

    "Beautiful!" Standing next to Paul Pierce, backup shooting guard Marquis Daniels shouted excitedly, waving the towel in his hand.  Paul Pierce clenched his fists, and the expression on his face became more determined.

    At the other end of the court, coach Larry Brown adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, but there was no expression on his face.  Xu Nuo looked at his teammates on the court and kept saying in his heart, "You must be calm" and "You must be calm."  The words promised can be said to himself, or it can be said that he hopes his teammates on the court can calm down.  After all, the team still has a ten-point lead, so there is no need to panic.

    Darren Collison took the ball from Paul George and began to organize the team's offense.  After Michael Pietrus hit the outside three-pointer just now, the morale of the Boston Celtics players suddenly increased, and they fought more fiercely on defense.  Darren Collison had to carefully protect the ball from being stolen by Kenyon Dooling.  At this time, O.J. Mayo used Tyler Hansbrough's screen to get rid of the defense and came to the three-point line to receive the ball. Darren Collison immediately passed the ball in his hand.

    However, O.J. Mayo had no chance to attack after receiving the ball, and Avery Bradley's defense was more oppressive than before.  At this time, Tyler Hansbrough once again stepped forward to set up a pick-and-roll for O.J. Mayo. O.J. Mayo immediately took the opportunity to get rid of Avery Bradley's defense, bypassed Tyler Hansbrough, and rushed with the ball.  To the Boston Celtics basket.

    "Hurry up and make up for the defense!" Kenyon Dooling shouted.

    This time Greg Stemesma quickly filled in and stood between O.J. Mayo and the basket.  O.J. Mayo faced Greg Stemmesma's defensive throw. The ball circled in the basket and flew out again. A sigh of disappointment immediately sounded in the Conseco Arena.  Voice.

    "This goal is such a pity." Xu Nuo said, "If this goal can be scored, it will extinguish the counterattack momentum just launched by the Boston Celtics."

    O.J. Mayo missed a small throw, Brandon Bass grabbed the defensive rebound, and the Boston Celtics counterattacked quickly.  Kenyon Dulin dribbled the ball for a fast break. When Darren Collison followed his footsteps, his wrist flicked slightly, and the ball flew like a cannonball toward Michael Pietrus on the outside.  Michael Pietrus hit a long-range shot from behind the three-point line, and the Boston Celtics bench managed to narrow the deficit to just eight points.

    ¡°The situation is a bit not good.¡± Xu Nuo said.

    "If we continue like this, we will be caught up by the opponent's substitute players." Danny Granger, sitting next to Xu Nuo, said.

    Xu Nuo glanced at Coach Larry Brown who was sitting on the coaching bench. At this moment, Coach Larry Brown stood up and asked for a timeout.

    The Boston Celtics bench players ran to the bench excitedly, as if they had already won the game.  Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Rajon Rondo high-fived every Boston Celtics bench player as they walked off the court to encourage their performance on the court.

    On the other end of the court, the Indiana Pacers bench was lifeless, but coach Larry Brown had no intention of blaming the players.

    "We still have an eight-point lead in our hands, and we don't have to worry about the points we just lost!" Coach Larry Brown said, "No matter what happens, no matter what difficulties we face, you  We must firmly believe in our hearts that we are definitely stronger than our opponents and we are the best team!"

    "We are the best team!" Xu Nuo repeated silently in his heart, clenching his fists involuntarily.

    "Danny, David, there's a promise, you three are ready to play!" Coach Larry Brown pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and gave the order for substitutions.
