Rajon Rondo used his body to protect the ball, struggled to break through the promised defense, and rushed to the Indiana Pacers basket at high speed with the ball.
"What a guy!" Xu Nuo couldn't help but admire in his heart. []
Just when Rajon Rondo broke into the paint area of ??the Indiana Pacers, Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert had already been waiting for a long time on the line where Rajon Rondo continued to break through. However, Rajon Rondo did not stop his steps, but continued to rush forward against Roy Hibbert's defense.
"What does this kid want to do?" Roy Hibbert thought in confusion.
Just when Roy Hibbert raised his hands to defend Rajon Rondo's attack, Rajon Rondo suddenly threw the ball in his hand toward the basket. "Are they planning to dunk in an alley-oop?" Roy Hibbert thought in his mind and turned around hurriedly. However, no Boston Celtics player behind him got the ball. The ball spun rapidly in the air and hit the net with a "swipe" sound!
"It turns out to be a small throw!" Xu Nuo nodded slightly and said, "Very good!"
"It is really difficult for the Boston Celtics to score points now!" said the on-site commentator and Indiana Pacers star Reggie Miller. "The game has been going on for almost four minutes now, but The visiting Boston Celtics only scored four points as a team.¡±
However, the fans at the Conseco Arena did not have much energy to listen to Reggie Miller's commentary anymore, because Xu Nuo once again got the ball in the frontcourt. The moment Promise's finger touched the ball, the Conseco Arena once again erupted with deafening cheers and shouts.
"This is unbelievable" Reggie Miller said, shaking his head.
"What will this guy do this time?" Rajon Rondo whispered to himself, "Is he going to break through with the ball, or is he going to pass the ball?"
Hearing Rajon Rondo talking to himself, Xu Nuo couldn't help but smile coldly.
"You forgot something else!" Xu Nuo said to Rajon Rondo with a sneer.
"What?" Rajon Rondo was slightly surprised, but Xunuo jumped high in front of Rajon Rondo before Xunuo's words could reach the ground, raising the ball in his hand above his head.
¡°It¡¯s a pull-up jumper!¡± Paul George shouted while sitting courtside on the Indiana Pacers bench.
At this time, it was too late for Rajon Rondo to interfere with Xu Nuo's shot. He could only watch the ball fly away from Xu Nuo's fingertips and fly towards the basket.
"Damn it!" Rajon Rondo cursed in a low voice.
The ball rolled rapidly in the air, drew an almost straight arc, and hit the basket with a "dong" sound!
"This kid!" Rajon Rondo stared at the promise and thought bitterly in his heart, "Even the shooting arc is almost exactly the same as Tracy McGrady's!"
The cheers in the Conseco Arena can now lift the ceiling of the arena. After hitting the promised pull-up three-pointer, the Indiana Pacers at home have already led with a score of 16:4. The Boston Celtics are playing away from home with 12 points!
"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, could you believe that these two teams would play such a score in the game?" On-site commentator Reggie Miller said loudly.
Indeed, as the 2008 NBA championship winner, the Boston Celtics actually trailed the young Indiana Pacers by 12 points in the game, and they were still behind at the beginning of the game. This was the overwhelming majority. The fans didn't expect it. "Who would have thought that the Indiana Pacers would play so well in this game?" one fan said.
The reason why the Boston Celtics are so far behind the Indiana Pacers is that the Indiana Pacers' outstanding performance is naturally a key point, but the Boston Celtics' own abnormal performance is also a big reason. From a scoring perspective alone, scoring only four points in a four-minute game is already quite an abnormal performance.
"But the actual strength gap will never be like this!" Rajon Rondo thought in his heart.
Rajon Rondo dribbled to the frontcourt, and the team's ace small forward Paul Pierce used the double screens of center Kevin Garnett and power forward Brandon Bass to get rid of Danny Granger's defense and ran Get the ball outside the three-point line. Although Paul Pierce's shooting touch was not very good in these two games, Rajon Rondo still handed the ball to Paul Pierce.
"Is this the trust in the team's ace player?" Xu Nuo thought to himself.
This time PaulCharles didn't waste any more shooting opportunities, and steadily hit a long-range three-pointer from the outside, scoring his first point of the game. After scoring, Paul Pierce roared loudly, venting the anger accumulated in his heart.
"I really don't understand why the referee Joe Crawford didn't give Paul Pierce a technical foul" Xu Nuo shook his head and thought in his heart.
In the first four minutes of the game, the Indiana Pacers relied on a super-high shooting rate of nearly 70% to score 16 points. However, in the next attack, the Indiana Pacers missed a shot and Boston Kyle Special Team veteran Kevin Garnett leaped high to grab the defensive rebound. Rajon Rondo took the ball from Kevin Garnett and launched a quick counterattack.
"Hurry back to defense!" Xu Nuo shouted loudly.
The defensive attention of the Indiana Pacers players was focused on Rajon Rondo who was holding the ball on the fast break. However, after entering the Indiana Pacers paint area, Rajon Rondo suddenly flicked his wrist and the ball went straight. The ball flew to Paul Pierce who was standing outside the three-point line. Paul Pierce didn't hesitate at all after receiving the ball and jumped directly from outside the three-point line to shoot!
"It's Paul Pierce again!" Xu Jiutian Literature!
"It took the Boston Celtics less than a minute to go from being twelve points behind their opponents to just six points behind. The Boston Celtics were chasing points so fast!" the on-site commentator said. Reggie Miller sighed.
Coach Larry Brown, who was sitting on the sidelines of the Indiana Pacers bench, adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, but Coach Larry Brown had no intention of calling a timeout.
"Wait a minute" Coach Larry Brown said in his heart.
In the next offense, Xu chose to sling the ball to center Roy Hibbert inside. Roy Hibbert held the ball and singled out Kevin Garnett, but was blocked by Boston who came up to defend him when he shot. Celtics power forward Brandon Bass fouled. Roy Hibbert went to the free throw line and made one of two free throws. The Indiana Pacers led the Boston Celtics by seven points at 17:10. Rajon Rondo made a pass from shooting guard Avery Bradley. Received the ball.
¡°It looks like the Boston Celtics are ready to counterattack!¡± said on-site commentator Reggie Miller.
"Don't even think about it!" Xu Nuo said coldly in his heart, bending down to prepare to defend Rajon Rondo.
Facing Xu Nuo, Rajon Rondo slowly dribbled the ball while carefully observing the movement of his teammates. "Paul's shooting touch is relatively good now. It should be a good choice to continue to give the ball to Paul." Rajon Rondo thought in his heart.
At this time, Paul Pierce once again reached out to Rajon Rondo for the ball, and Rajon Rondo passed the ball directly without any hesitation. Paul Pierce held the ball with his back to Danny Granger, suddenly turned around and cut inside. After getting rid of Danny Granger's defense, he held the ball and headed towards the Indiana Pacers' basket. Although Danny Granger has been following Paul Pierce closely and Roy Hibbert is defending in front of him, Paul Pierce still made a steady layup to help the Boston Celtics once again The score difference was narrowed.
"It looks like Paul Pierce is going to show off!" the on-site commentator Reggie Miller said loudly. "In the past two minutes or so, Paul Pierce actually scored eight points in a row! Now the Indiana Pacers are only leading Five points to the Boston Celtics!¡±
"This can't go on like this!" Coach Larry Brown, who was sitting on the sidelines of the court, thought to himself, stood up and asked for a long timeout. The players of the Indiana Pacers lowered their heads and walked towards the team's bench on the side of the court. Only Promise still held his head high.
"You know, no matter what, we still have a five-point lead!" Xu Nuo said, "No matter what, the initiative in the game is still in our hands!"
Danny Granger, who was walking beside Xu Nuo, nodded.
¡°Our top priority now is to solve the defensive problem!¡± Coach Larry Brown said and picked up the tactical board.
¡°And it¡¯s mainly for the defense of point guard Rajon Rondo, especially Rajon Rondo¡¯s passing!¡± Xu Nuo said immediately.
Coach Larry Brown glanced at Xu Nuo.
"But more importantly, how to protect our basket!" Coach Larry Brown said loudly.
Xu Nuo couldn¡¯t help but frowned.
"We can no longer allow our opponents to break into our interior so easily, especially the two players Rajon Rondo and Paul Pierce." Coach Larry Brown said this and began to draw on the tactical board in his hand. The next thick black lines followed.
