A different point guard path

............

The Knicks seem to be under some pressure.

The Celtics are changing from last season.

"The Celtics have a lot of fighting spirit tonight!"

"Can it be enough? The Big Three have achieved nothing in three years, not even a champion in the Eastern Conference!"

"The Celtics are one of the favorites to beat the Knicks."

"I also want to see if the Knicks will lose."

"The schedule is not very friendly to the Knicks."

"The goal of the Knicks this season is to win three consecutive championships and build a dynasty. For them, one or two victories in the regular season are not in their eyes."

"Come on, the Knicks beat the opponent!"

On the court, Lin Rui remained calm.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and followed Randolph's pick-and-roll.

After the pick-and-roll, Lin Rui hit the ball back to Randolph.

Randolph catches the ball at the free-throw line, adjusts a bit, and hits mid-range.

"frame!"

The basketball hit the rim hard.

The rebound was taken by Gasol Jr., and Gasol Jr. threw the ball to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui adjusted the distance one step outside the three-point line, and made a super long three-pointer against Rondo's defense.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc!

The basketball swished around and came out again.

It can be seen that the Knicks generally don't feel very good.

The rebound was controlled by Garnett.

Garnett gives the ball to Rondo.

Rondo dribbles forward quickly, and the Celtics run more aggressively in the frontcourt than the Knicks.

Rondo's command and dispatch is also more mature than the previous two years.

This time it was Pierce who cut in with Garnett's pick-and-roll, and Rondo gave the ball to Pierce.

After Pierce received the ball, he made a slow three-step layup after leaning on Tucker.

Although the Knicks' defense does not seem to have too many loopholes on the surface, after the confrontation, the loopholes were still exposed.

Randolph wanted to help defend at this time, but he didn't move after taking a glance.

Pierce pressed Tucker for a layup and scored the ball.

"Beep!!"

The ball was still a two plus one, and Tucker fouled.

Standing on the free throw line, Pierce hit the ball steadily.

0:8.

"Come and help defend." Tucker shouted at Randolph.

"I thought you could handle him." Randolph shrugged.

Seeing that the two were about to argue, Lin Rui went over and patted the shoulders of the two, compressing the dispute in the cradle.

.....

.....

"pause!!"

D'Antoni couldn't wait to stop the game.

It's rare for the Knicks to start down this much.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

The Celtics are cheering up and down, and head coach Jeff Van Gundy is waving his fists.

That's what he wanted to see.

Fans at TD North Shore Garden Arena were also cheering and screaming.

I don't know how long it has been. They have been suppressed against the Knicks, and there are very few scenes where they gain an advantage at the beginning!

The fans seem to have seen a new coach with a new look!

Rivers should resign sooner! !

D'Antoni applauded and shouted at everyone: "Concentrate, don't relax, this is the second game of the regular season!"

"Stay focused, stay aggressive!"

D'Antoni is constantly emphasizing the problem of concentration.

The Knicks' players are not bad in terms of strength, it just depends on whether they are focused.

Lin Rui wiped his sweat with a towel.

Lin Rui also noticed that the team's overall effort is not as good as last season.

Many people in the team did not win the championship last season, and everyone is still very active. After winning the championship, everyone's mentality is also relaxed.

Randolph, who usually doesn't like training, relaxed to the extreme. After winning two championships, he seemed to have nothing to pursue in his career, and he relaxed his weight control.

Lin Rui understands human nature well, and he knows that this relaxation will not end soon.

The biggest trouble for the Knicks this season is not other teams, but themselves.

Including Lin Rui himself, Lin Rui also felt that he was not so urgent to win the championship.

None of the current opponents seem to be a threat to them....

Lin Rui understands why Jordan chose to retire after three consecutive championships.

When personal honor and collective honor reach their peak, there will be a lack of challenges. This lack of spiritual goals is a painful thing.

Lin Rui is not as boring as Jordan. He has only played in the NBA for three seasons, and he is still full of love for basketball.

Pause back soon.

D'Antoni chose to make personnel adjustments.

Danny Green was replaced by Tony Allen.

Randolph was replaced by Korver, and Tucker moved to the power forward position.

Nothing has changed on the Celtic side.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui dribbled forward.

The Celtics' strength improvement is not only on the offensive end, they also work harder on the defensive end.

Pierce confronted Lin Rui as soon as he came up, which brought up the intensity of the playoffs.

Lin Rui calmly dribbled the ball behind his back to avoid Pierce's rush.

Pierce's scrambling for the ball was still too fierce, and Lin Rui found a chance to break through on the right side and pass him by.

It was Garnett who was helping to defend, and Garnett didn't dare to be careless, so he raised his hand and came over.

Lin Rui didn't wait for Garnett to get too far forward, and immediately stopped and shot from mid-range.

Although Garnett made a defense, this defense did not affect Lin Rui's rhythm.

Basketball draws a wonderful arc!

"Shh!"

2:8.

Lin Rui's mid-range jumper opened up the situation for the Knicks.

D'Antoni applauded from the sidelines.

"Lin Rui is the key man for the Knicks."

"When Lin Rui needs to score, Lin Rui will stand up."

"The ball was played beautifully."

"It's a very precise mid-range shot. No matter how bad the touch is, Lin Rui can still make the shot with absolute certainty."

The fans are talking about it.

Barkley said with a smile: "It depends on whether the Celtics can keep Lin's strength."

Smith said: "How the Knicks play depends on Lin Rui's attitude. If Lin Rui wants to win, they will definitely become different."

On the court, the Celtics' offense came again.

Rondo dribbles to the frontcourt.

The Celtics team is still working hard to run.

Rondo gives the ball to Ray Allen.

Ray Allen used Garnett's screen to break through and give Rasheed Wallace inside.

Rasheed Wallace was firmly covered by Gasol's long arm, and he smashed the ball to Pierce in the corner.

Pierce flicked a shot, pointed Korver up, and then made a three-pointer after he took a step up and sideways.

Not every nba player likes jump shots. Many people don't shoot three-pointers very much.

Pierce's three-point shooting ability is very stable.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc!

"Shh!"

2:11.

The Celtics still put pressure on the Knicks.

The cheers of the fans in the td North Shore Garden Arena continued to sound.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

Just as Lin Rui was about to launch an attack, Garnett and Pierce overtook Lin Rui and attacked.

The height and wingspan of these two men are enough to pose a threat to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui immediately sent the ball to Korver on the left.

Korver feints the ball to Tony Allen.

Tony Allen flies to the layup.

Rasheed Wallace's interference is great, and the ball is big.

Fortunately, Lin Rui rushed out the moment Tony Allen made a layup.

Lin Rui grabbed the offensive rebound.

After Lin Rui landed, he immediately adjusted his footsteps and turned over to make a jump shot.

The ball was very difficult, and Lin Rui fell back against Rasheed Wallace's defense.

But Lin Rui succeeded.

Wonderful rainbow.

"Shh!"

4:11.

"Hold on!"

"Stuck on the rebound!"

"Stuck position."

Jeff Van Gundy was yelling hard.

Garnett went out to defend, and the result was that the Celtics' inside protection was weak.

This allowed the Knicks to easily grab another offensive rebound and score a second offense.

This dropped rebound has a huge impact on morale.

Celtic offense.

The Celtics players didn't complain to each other, they all cheered.

Rondo dribbles to the frontcourt.

The Knicks players seemed to be moved by Lin Rui's effort to grab the offensive rebound just now, and everyone worked very hard.

The Knicks' defense doesn't have too many holes.

Rondo broke through and gave Garnett the ball after using Rasheed Wallace's screen.

Garnett took the ball and made a high jumper directly.

The jump shot from this position is very long.

"frame!"

The basketball bounced off the back frame.

Lin Rui jumped up on the right side and firmly controlled the rebound.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui ran forward with tactical instructions.

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

Fans at TD North Shore Garden are putting pressure on Knicks players.

Amid such cheers, the Celtics players were all trying to defend.

Barkley said: "Boston is like chicken blood. It seems that Jeff gave them hope."

Smith said: "Hopefully they can cause some trouble for the Knicks."

Lin Rui continued to be flanked, and Lin Rui sent the ball to Gasol Jr. inside.

Gasol's support with the ball at the free throw line.

Gasol Jr. observes his teammates.

Tucker set a screen for Lin Rui, and Lin Rui ran back and cut inside.

Gasol gave the ball to Lin Rui, and Lin Rui threw it with one hand after receiving the ball.

Garnett wanted to block Lin Rui, but it was still almost meaningless.

Lin Rui's throw drew a perfect trajectory! !

"Shh!"

6:11.

The Knicks seem to be gradually catching up.

But in the next few rounds, the Knicks once again fell into the blacksmith.

Then the Celtics players still feel very hot.

Lin Rui also got into trouble when he was caught in a crazy pinch.

With 3 minutes and 22 seconds left in the first quarter, the score came to 10-23.

For the first time in a long time, the Knicks trailed by so many points before the end of the first quarter.

Only scoring 10 points so far is enough to show how cold the Knicks feel.

D'Antoni stopped the game again.

Zhang Weiping said: "The Celtics played very hard. They have a strong hatred for the Knicks."

Xu Jicheng said: "This is inevitable. The Celtics lost too many games to the Knicks!"

Zhang Weiping said: "In the entire league, the Celtics are definitely one of the teams that know the Knicks best. Today, the Celtics successfully cut Lin Rui's connection with other teammates. Under the circumstances, the Knicks are also in trouble."

Xu Jicheng said: "The Knicks' strongest weapon is Lin Rui. They still have a lot of room for adjustment. Let's see how Lin Rui will deal with such a defense in the future."

"Haha, let's see if we have a chance to beat the Knicks."

"The Celtics changed coaches and it was like a makeover."

"Too fierce, too fierce!"

Fans discuss the game on the field.

On the sidelines, Lin Rui raised his head and drank water.

In his previous life, Jeff Van Gundy never coached the Celtics Big Three.

Obviously, all of this is different because of him. The Celtics are going to fight the Knicks in the regular season.

The overall strength of the Knicks is still stronger than that of the Celtics, but it is absolutely impossible to easily win the game in a relaxed state.

If the Knicks want to win, they also have to put their attitudes right!

After the pause is over.

Lin Rui brought Tony Allen, Stephenson, Tucker, and Whiteside on the court.

D'Antoni tries to keep youngsters on the court as much as possible.

Celtics side, House, Ray Allen, Pierce, Garnett, O'Neal! !

O'Neal is in his final season with the Celtics!He has announced that he will retire this season regardless of whether he wins the championship or not.

Jeff Van Gundy chose to let the Celtics' main force continue to play!

After the pause comes back.

Knicks offense.

Stephenson dribbles the ball forward.

Lin Rui asked for the ball in the low post.

Stephenson puts the ball in after halftime.

When Lin Rui was on the court, Stephenson didn't dare to fight.

Lin Rui took the ball in the low post and took a tentative step to beat Pierce.

Garnett wanted to flank, but Whiteside's timely cut made Garnett dare not flank.

Pierce was close to Lin Rui, he was afraid that Lin Rui would shoot directly.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Lin Rui hit Pierce sideways with his body.

Pierce stepped back.

Lin Rui pushed forward to the three-second zone.

Lin Rui turned around to collect the ball, and made a feint.

Lin Rui picked up Pierce and Garnett who was helping to defend, jumped up on the spot and finished with a dunk!

"frame!"

12:23.

In the case of poor outside feel, Lin Rui chose to attack the inside.

Celtic offense.

House dribbled the ball in the frontcourt and hit the ground to Garnett inside.

Garnett saw that it was Whiteside's defense. After making a fake move, he directly held the ball to the right!

Whiteside raised his hand to Garnett.

Garnett is not familiar with Whiteside's characteristics, he chose the big jump hook to complete the finish.

"boom!"

Whiteside directly blocked Garnett's head and face.

The rebound was slapped down and Lin Rui got it.

Lin Rui took the ball and rushed to the frontcourt.

right position.

Lin Rui signaled his teammates to continue to empty the side.

The Knicks players all went to the left, leaving the right to Lin Rui.

Sweat dripped from Pierce's forehead.

Confronting Lin Rui is very difficult.

Lin Rui didn't think about shooting.

Instead, he broke through after facing Pierce with a change of direction.

Pierce moves across to block.

Lin Rui gave Pierce a confrontation!

"boom!"

Pierce was knocked away directly, Lin Rui collected the ball and stepped, took three slow steps to avoid O'Neal's defense and then put the ball in.

14:23.

After scoring 4 points in a row, Lin Rui stopped the Knicks' decline slightly.
