Chapter 481 The Celtics substitute salute! 【Subscription】
What gave Larry Brown a headache was the Celtics' lineup at the start of the second quarter.
They have a lineup that has never been seen together before!
Charles Barkley, Lin Long, Rashad Lewis, Bruce Bowen, Manu Ginobili!
This lineup is very young, a rookie, a 2nd grade, even except Lin Long, the other 4 people did not get the chance to appear in the first quarter!
This is a very bold, large-area rotation.
Now in the entire NBA, I am afraid that only the Celtics can come up with such extravagant two sets of lineups, and still maintain a strong firepower!
Obviously, Bird was very dissatisfied with the shooting feel of the five-person team in the first quarter, and directly removed four of them, leaving only Lin Long, and continued to target Iverson's "660"!
At the beginning of the game, Ginobili, who knew the zone defense best, became a point guard and dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt. Facing the specious zone defense of the 76ers, he remembered Bird's explanation before he played.
"Think about how you played in Italy. In the second quarter, just watch and play for yourself! I'll give you the freedom you want the most! Put your creativity and genius on the court. !99
Bird's trust made Ginobili's excited palms sweat. As a natural big-time player, he was not nervous at all, only excited!
Just look forward to it!
Seeing the first line of defense formed by Iverson and Snow, Ginobili only felt that the two of them had more flaws than the hair on his head!
Without hesitation, without calling for a pick-and-roll, Ginobili slammed the crotch in two consecutive steps, and then suddenly accelerated in the direction of Snow to force a breakthrough.
Just when Snow had just moved a step and made the gap between him and Iverson slightly wider, Ginobili suddenly changed direction, and a dribble behind the ball handed the basketball from his left hand to his right hand, from the back to the back. At the same time, he turned his body sideways, and flashed between the two of them in a flash!
In an instant, Manu Ginobili suddenly accelerated and killed the 76ers inside!
Ratliff guarded the basket and immediately took a step forward to block Ginobili's attack.
However, Ginobili's feet continued to change strangely. With just two steps, Ratliff was shaken all over the place, and he couldn't understand what Ginobili was doing. To the basket!
The same can't understand, and everyone else on and off the court!
They only thought that Manu Ginobili had just twisted twice, and then he shifted his position and passed Ratliff's side!
His movements are not fast, not good-looking, not gorgeous, and even look extremely awkward and weird.
But it can keep people clean!
After the passing, Ginobili made a dashing left-hand layup to open the scoring for the team in the second quarter!
Larry Brown was stunned by the ball!
It's not that Ginobili's performance is really so scary, but in the previous 4 games, Ginobili only played a mere 8 minutes per game, averaging only 2 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists per game. edge player.
Just such a rookie, in the fifth game, he came up with a one-stop force? No tactics, no cover, or even a glance at the team's big brother Lin Long?
What kind of confidence is this, what kind of trust Bird gave him!
Brown turned his gaze to Bird and couldn't help shaking his head.
At least if it were him, he would never consider using a rookie in this kind of game!
No matter how good it is, it will never be considered!
Ginobili's serpentine breakthrough has long been accepted by the fans of the North Shore Gardens, who excitedly shouted Ginobili's nickname today.
"snake!snake!snake!
As Iverson missed another shot, Ginobili took off the backboard directly.
Without hesitation, without passing, without waiting, he dribbled the ball and launched an assault!
He rushed towards the frontcourt, and with his strange pace on the road, once again completely disrupted the 76ers' defensive formation!
But this time, after reaching the basket again, facing Ratliff, who was stubbornly standing at the basket, Ginobili did not force a layup, but suddenly passed the ball from behind and passed the ball to the middle. ..
There, Lin Long came from the air! He grabbed the basketball with both hands, and when he burst, it was another two-handed dunk!
Poor Ratliff, this time he didn't even have time to turn around, he was slapped on the side by Lin Long!
Two rounds later, it was Ginobili again. He passed Snow again, and after he was double-teamed in the inside line, he was already in a desperate situation on the sideline. With almost dead ball, he suddenly flew sideways out of the baseline, and then a freehand with one hand said. A romantic pass, the basketball drew a perfect arc from out of bounds, pocketed a semicircle, and threw it into the hands of Bowen in the bottom corner!
Bowen got the basketball, pulled it up and made another 3-point shot, hit again!
2 minutes later, it was Manu Ginobili again. He successfully predicted Snow's pass, stabbed and slashed a pass, then jumped up before the basketball went out of bounds, and threw the basketball from his crotch with one hand. Rescue back in the world!
The power of his save was so outrageous that it flew directly to the other side of the court.
Just when everyone thought it was a mistake, Rashad Lewis was there!
After he catches the ball, he does not need to adjust at all, and when he pulls it up, it is a chasing 3-pointer!
"Shh!
After a crisp sound, Lewis made a 3-pointer!
The Celtics substitute the artillery salute, the artillery rumbles!
The ratio between the two sides is 3.3 points, which has been pulled up to as much as 15 points so far!
The Celtics didn't even make it to their main lineup. The 76ers only dared to rotate with 7 players. Larry Brown didn't dare to let them play, for fear of making the situation worse!
His only hope is Allen Iverson!
But this half of the game, Iverson was even worse than the first quarter!
Because Bowen is here too! Bowen + Lin Long are definitely the pair with the strongest perimeter blocking ability among all teams today!
Under the targeting of these two people, Iverson struggled in the second quarter, like a little sheep surrounded by a group of wolves, and there was no way to break free from their shackles!
