710.Pierces Sorrow
Antoine Walker is said to be a bit cancerous, but his strength is there. When he was there, he and Pierce were able to lead the team to the top four in the Eastern Conference and into the second round. Without him, the Celtics
It's hard to even make the playoffs.
The Eagles originally didn't attach much importance to the game against the Celtics, but because of the "yellow and green troops united to fight against the Eagles" promoted by the media, the Eagles paid great attention to this game.
Maybe many years later, this season will become a small year in the long history of the NBA, and it will not be so memorable for people, but people are living in the present. Others will not remember, but individuals will remember their craziest moments.
The coolest year.
For example, now, the Eagles players are quite motivated to defeat the Green Army first, then the Lakers, and defeat the "yellow-green coalition" advocated by the media!
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the Eagles' home game against the Celtics is about to begin.
As the boss of the visiting team, Pierce was the last one to come out. As soon as he came out, he saw a guy on the Eagles bench who looked like he was going to do something big-Matt Barnes, standing at the entrance of the home team's player tunnel waiting for two people to come out.
He stood on the outermost side of the bench and looked at him with a ferocious smile.
It was okay for Barnes alone. Later, Liu Mang was the first to come out and applauded Pierce. He pointed his gun and "fired" at Pierce. It was not a big problem. When the home team was the last one, the Eagles
The boss of the group, Sharif Rahim, came out and gave Pierce two "winking looks". Pierce's whole body was in bad shape!
Seeing Liu Mang, Prince, Raheem, Muhammad, Kwame Brown from the Eagles, and Barnes standing next to him, as well as a big white bear Ostertag, Pierce felt it.
The deepest malice in the world...
Although the rotation plan cannot be discontinued, it can be adjusted!
The Celtics' strongest perimeter lineup is the perimeter trio of Chucky Atkins, Mike James, and Pierce. They are also well-known in the league. Plus the sixth man Ricky Davis, it can't be said.
The super perimeter combination is also top-notch. Such a four-man perimeter combination is extremely powerful.
So to deal with the Celtics, the Hawks rested the league's strongest interior defensive combination of Rasheed Wallace and Ratliff, and sent the three outside meat grinders Liu Mang, Prince, and Raheem.
come out.
As a result, Pierce encountered the darkest game in his life...
When Rasheed Wallace's recorded video of the Roar of the Gods was played on the big screen, accompanied by crazy cheers from the scene, even Pierce, who had been stabbed eleven times, felt the desolation in his heart at this moment...
…
Chucky Atkins, Mike James, Vin Baker, Mark Blount...
Compared with the opponent, even the strongest outside combination on our side is a notch weaker!
"Brother, I miss you so much!" Looking at his teammates, Pierce began to miss Antoine Walker at this moment. When Antoine Walker was here, the opponent was targeting Antoine Walker, the best player of the 1996 generation.
A dazzling figure, the first of the 1996 generation to reach the All-Stars based on strength, and one of the twin stars who was once more dazzling than Iverson.
Now, all opponents are targeting Pierce alone...
After the game started, no matter whether Pierce was guarding Liu Mang or Raheem, both of them were holding the ball and attacking hard.
Rahim has rarely turned on the offensive mode. Rahim has averaged 22 points per game for five consecutive years since his second grade. In the past two years, Liu Mang has become more popular, and his scoring has begun to decrease, but it does not mean that he can no longer attack.
, the first ball after the game started, he ran over Pierce and drove inside, got to the basket and smashed the ball into the basket through Mark Blount.
The Celtics' outside combination can attack, but their defense is like a sieve. Pierce still lacks someone to supervise him in defense. His former boss, Antoine Walker, was a sieve himself and taught Pierce all-round offensive skills.
, for things like defense, Pierce still needs to focus on scoring. Even after Antoine Walker left, he had to be responsible for organizing the offense. He played 20 5 5 for the first time in his career, averaging 22 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists per game, which is even more gorgeous.
It's gorgeous, but the defense has become even less focused.
At the beginning of the game, Raheem beat Pierce several times and made 3 of 5 shots and tied the score at 2-1. After that, Pierce had to switch to defend Liu Mang.
Then, Liu Mang's step to break through the basket, and Pierce's three-pointer after retreating to defend began...
As the boss of the team, it is impossible for Pierce to guard Prince, a pure shooter on the offensive end! How shameless! Even if the defense is no longer focused and the effect is poor, he at least has to guard the opponent's second outside scorer.
I originally wanted to defend Rahim, but unexpectedly, Rahim suddenly turned back to the old bear king, just holding the ball and doing it.
Be on guard against Liu Mang...Liu Mang is more direct, directly saying that he wants to "rewrite the truth"...
If it was just the defensive end that was beaten, Pierce wouldn't be so sad.
The key is that in the Eagles' defense, Kwame Brown was guarding the basket alone, and Vin Baker completely lost his first-class inside performance of 15.8 when he defeated the Eagles at the beginning of the season. In the second half of the season,
His data has dropped to an average of 11 points and 5 rebounds per game. The difference in performance is not 4 points, but in the more than 20 games after the All-Star Weekend, his average data is only 5 points and 3 rebounds per game. Vin Baker can continue, completely
It’s because the Celtics have no one inside!
Last summer, the Celtics spent more than 70 million in six years to recruit former Nuggets and Mavericks top center Reeve La, who averaged 13.7 points per game starting from his rookie season.
Ferenc, in the first six seasons, was a big center who could shoot and defend. He once had a three-point shooting percentage of 43% in a single season, but he became acclimated to the Celtics.
He fell down after signing the big contract he dreamed of. This year with the Celtics, he shot 20% from three-point range and averaged 7 points and 4 rebounds per game. Not only was he unable to make offensive shots, but he also lost his previous enthusiasm on defense.
, after taking the money, who cares about you so much...
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Mark Blount is a purely defensive player. He and Vin Baker form an inside combination, and Kwame Brown can guard it alone.
Then, Pierce faced Raheem Muhammad, or Prince Muhammad, or Liu Mang Muhammad...
When Muhammad is not on the court, he is very enthusiastic about waving towels on the sidelines. As long as he has the opportunity to play, he will try his best and do whatever he is asked to do.
Then, Pierce was double-teamed infinitely on the offensive end.
The darkest moment of Pierce's life has come...
The key is that when Pierce hands over the ball, the Hawks won't let him go if they want to play without the ball. They would rather be scored by Chucky Atkins or Mike James or Mark Blount's pick and roll than let him have any movement.
Opportunity to catch the ball.
Role players don't break out every day. They can break out every day. That's not called a role player, but the normal performance of a superstar. The back line of Mike James and Chucky Atkins is already good, but Pierce was
Blocked up, just the two of them, even if they shoot in pick-and-rolls, their shooting percentage is not very good. The Eagles' defensive rotation is quite fast!
Although the Eagles' lineup is not as good as the super five when Rasheed Wallace and Ratliff were there, it is still a poor version. The Eagles players who were very excited today played Kyle in the opening game.
The score was 15-7. When the official timeout of the first quarter came, the Eagles were already leading by 8 points.
In 7 minutes, Pierce didn't score a point and made 0 of 3 shots. It was difficult to even shoot!
During the official timeout, the Celtics replaced Pierce.
The Hawks also had a big rotation, five up and five down! They replaced Stockton, Jason Terry, Korver, Boozer, and Ostertag, using a double-double tactic.
The attack began! Jason Terry couldn't move without the ball, but he was very good at catching and dribbling the ball twice. Although Stockton secretly hated that he didn't record any assists, he passed the ball without hesitation.
The Eagles, who only scored 15 points in the first seven minutes, scored 14 points in the next five minutes, but the Celtics started to score smoothly. After the first quarter, the Eagles led 29-19 by 10 points.
Pierce, who was sitting on the sidelines, felt like he was being targeted!
After Pierce came on the field in the second quarter, when he saw the Eagles replaced Liu Mang, Barnes, Raheem, Muhammad, and Kwame Brown, he was very sure that he was being targeted!
Pierce feels that the world is dark...
The Eagles only blocked Pierce alone. When Pierce was on the court, the scoring gap between the two teams was even smaller. In other words, the Eagles just wanted to get rid of Pierce.
Pierce was targeted throughout the game. As a result, he only played 25 minutes before being replaced by coach Jim O'Brien and never played again.
Liu Mang scored 31 points, Raheem scored 26 points and 15 rebounds, and Jason Terry scored 19 points. The three young Hawks who had spread their wings combined to score 76 points, leading the Hawks to easily defeat the Celtics 99-87.
The most tragic thing is of course Pierce, who made 2 of 13 shots, 7 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists. Pierce’s points in this game were not as many rebounds! He almost assisted more than he scored!
…
63 wins and 10 losses, the Eagles won 4 consecutive victories!
Half of the process of killing the Celtics and defeating the "joint conspiracy of the yellow and green legions" has been completed.
Liu Mang will definitely not tell Pierce that the Eagles' defensive strategy in this game is for him to "breathe wind" in Rahim's ear, mobilize Rahim's enthusiasm, and defend Pierce to death.
Liu Mang is not the kind of person who simply wants to outsmart his opponent. Even if the Eagles become very motivated to kill the Celtics, they will not specifically target Pierce. Obviously, because of the double attack on Pierce, the Eagles sent their own
That kind of lineup not only hinders offensive efficiency, but also doesn't really do its best defensively.
The main reason is Liu Mang’s mission!
"Temporary mission: the conspiracy of the most powerful wealthy family."
"The 'conspiracy' guided by public opinion turned a non-existent 'conspiracy' into a fact. The Celtics and Lakers did not have a conspiracy against the host, but public opinion, the strongest behind-the-scenes leader, made this matter a reality.
In fact, the conspiracy of the two most powerful teams in the NBA was triggered."
"The conspiracy of the most powerful club: the host needs to lead the team to defeat the Celtics and Lakers successively. Conditions for defeating the Celtics: lock down the new Celtics star Paul Pierce; defeat the Lakers
Team conditions: In a one-on-one matchup with Kobe Bryant, score higher than Kobe Bryant. Mission reward: A random star card for the two most powerful superstars. Failure penalty: Within a week
Every time the host sees the exposed parts of a sexy beauty, his nose will bleed."
This task is simply a dream for Liu Mang!
Celtics! Lakers!
The random star cards of these two NBA superstars... Liu Mang and the blacksmith brother called and teased the little blacksmith and received this task. The pig-like laughter was not only filled with joy in their hearts, but also this task!
The Green Army is dead and the Eagle King is here to stay!
Kill the Lakers!
The most fortunate thing is that Malone began to take a break at the end of the season to prepare for the playoffs. Malone came to Atlanta purely because he wanted to meet Stockton, Liu Mang and his successor Boozer. For Liu Mang, although watching
There won’t be another duel between Stockton and Malone, but this is undoubtedly the biggest good news!
Originally, if you beat Kobe again, you can get Kobe's star card this season. If you win 68 games, you can also get the star card of Kobe's first championship. Now you still have the opportunity to get the yellow and green Legion's superstar random star card...
"Blacksmith! Here comes my brother! Hahahaha..."
In the Eagles locker room, another familiar sound of pig noises was heard...
