Chapter 259 The dust has settled, and the Eastern Division will join the Green Army Celts!!!

Over the next few days, the remaining six teams continued to play fiercely.

In the East, the Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons were 3-20

After conquering Tianwang Mountain, the Celtics have already taken the first game point, and they only need to win one more game to meet the Philadelphia 76ers.

And tonight, the two teams will face the sixth game of the series. This match is a crucial one for both sides.

The Detroit Pistons have no way back, and they must win this game to have a chance to complete the series reversal.

And the Celtics are equally desperate to win the game so as not to dream too much. Before the start of the game, the major media also hyped up the heat of this game.

The two sides have been very explosive in the first five games, and both teams are on the hard-line side, so when they collide with each other, they tend to be very intense.

Almost every game will have some friction, either spewing trash talk or going straight to the game.

Fans also really enjoy seeing games like this.

“Charles, who do you think will win the game tonight?”

On the commentary table, Kenny Smith asked leisurely.

“This……… It’s hard to say, the strength of these two teams is very close. ”

“Although they have a certain gap in the rankings in the regular season, the overall strength gap is not huge.”

“If I had to make a choice, then I’m still bullish on the Boston Celtics.”

“Because both teams are very efficient defensively, but the Celtics’ offensive point is clearly more prominent than the Pistons.”

Charles Barkley analyzed it carefully.

Although he usually likes to run trains with his mouth full, he is a retired professional player after all, so from a professional point of view, there is no problem at all.

Barkley’s idea also fits with what most fans think, with the Celtics having at least three solid scoring points.

In addition to Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker, the young Gilbert Arenas also grew up.

In the first round of the playoffs, Arenas averaged 20 points per game.

This is only the second season of his career, and he has already shown the potential to become a super scorer.

On the Pistons side, except for ‘mid-range shooting’ Hamilton, no one averaged more than 20 points per game.

However, their overall strength is very average, and everyone has a certain offensive ability, so it is not easy to defend.

According to the NBA playoff format, the game will be played at the home of the Celtics.

This is undoubtedly another big challenge for the Pistons, who have already reached the edge of the cliff.

They have to bear a lot of psychological pressure, and they are already behind, and they need to play very well if they want to complete the comeback on the road.

Moments later, players from both sides came on for a pre-match warm-up.

Before the start of the game, the respective head coaches were interviewed.

The Celtics coach said: “Tonight is the final game of the series and we will send the opponent home fishing at home and there will be no surprises. ”

The Pistons coach said: “This game will be a turning point in this series, don’t look at us behind, but it will make us more motivated.” ”

“Look at it, laugh and say that the last one will be us.”

A few minutes later, the pre-match warm-up ended and the game officially began. The Boston Celtics got the first wave of offensive rights.

Paul Pierce showed his fiery touch from the start, and he used his excellent singles skills to hit a mid-range jumper to score two points for his team.

Looking back, the Pistons did not dare to show weakness, and Hamilton immediately returned the color with a mid-range shot.

In the next few rounds, the two sides played back and forth, scoring each other.

As the game progressed, the physical confrontation between the two sides became more and more intense, and it seemed that every collision could produce sparks.

Halfway through the first quarter, there was one of the fiercest clashes in the history of the six games.

After Paul Pearce scored the ball on a layup, he made a very mocking gesture at Big Ben.

Instantly ignited the anger in Big Ben’s heart, and he directly raised his fist and smashed towards Pierce.

Pierce is also a violent temper, although not as strong as Big Ben, but still fight together.

‘Fat Head’ Antoine Walker also hurried forward to help.

The more the matter got bigger and bigger, a drama of group fighting was directly staged.

The game was interrupted, and the security personnel at the scene all rushed to the stadium to forcibly stop it, and the scene was brought under control.

However, Paul Pierce and Big Ben, who led the trouble, were both expelled from the scene.

This is a very big loss for both sides.

Pierce is the star of the Celtics and the team’s top scorer

Big Ben is also indispensable to the Pistons, and while his points per game have dropped significantly this season, his ability to protect his interior defense and rebounding is unquestionable.

Without Big Ben, the Pistons lost the inside barrier, and it will be very difficult to limit the ‘Fat Head’.

So the expulsion of these two men will have a greater impact on the Pistons.

The game went on, and after Pierce was ejected, the offensive burden on the outside was all on Arenas.

The youngster, who is just entering his second season in the league, has a big heart.

From the second half of the first quarter, he played with complete aggression.

Breakout layups, mid-range jump shots, outside three-pointers, all capable of sending the ball to the basket.

Arenas’ outstanding performance has been unanimously recognized by fans, and he must have a place in the future All-Star.

Under the strong attack of the Celtics, the Pistons gradually felt overwhelmed.

Since Big Ben’s expulsion, they have been left behind.

By the end of the first half, the gap had been stretched to 15 points.

After the start of the second half, the Pistons did not improve much, and after the third quarter of the game, the gap continued to stretch to 20 points.

In the decisive moment of the final quarter, although the Pistons tried to fight back, the difference was too big.

The final whistle blows and the game is over.
