Chapter 181 Demonstrating the explosive power of scoring again!
After the timeout, Durant scored two consecutive timely three-pointers to narrow the point difference for the team.
Although Durant's shooting was not stable for half a season, his touch exploded tonight. The Celtics fans at home did not hesitate to cheer and scream for Durant at the top of their voices!
Fans have seen the potential of this tall scorer. As long as Durant is in good condition, his shooting almost ignores the defense.
When the third quarter ended, the score became 85 to 81.
The Suns only led by 4 points after three quarters, which coach D'Antoni did not expect.
Against a weak team like the Celtics, his plan was to let the Suns' attackers take away the game in the third quarter.
"The Celtics played very vigorously and tenaciously tonight and withstood several waves of offensive climaxes from the Suns!" Zhang Liji said during the break.
"Chen Yan has scored 39 points so far, and Durant has also scored 33 points. It's a great showdown between these two rookies tonight!" Director Xu added.
"I hope they can continue their hot streak in the fourth quarter, so that the next game will be fun to watch!" Zhang Weiping said cheerfully.
From the perspective of the commentator and the audience, of course, we hope that the score between the two sides will be as close as possible, so that the game will be more enjoyable in terms of perception.
The final quarter of the game starts soon.
The Suns did not play Chen Yan and Nash. The five players they sent were Barea, Laga Bell, Hill, Diaw and Stoudemire.
D'Antoni intended to let the two main perimeter players rest for a while. He had a hunch that this game would be a fierce battle to the end.
The Suns took the lead in the fourth quarter, and Grant Hill used a screen to hit a mid-range jumper.
When Chen Yan and Nash are not on the court, Hill is the Suns' first outside firepower.
Looking back, the Celtics chose to serve quickly!
Rondo moved outside the three-point line and shot directly!
Rondo rarely chooses such a shot, and his efficiency from beyond the three-point line is very impressive.
In this round, during the transition between offense and defense, he saw that his teammates had already rushed to the basket, and there was a high probability that he would get an offensive rebound even if he didn't score, so he shot so decisively.
This shot fully demonstrated Rondo's golf quotient.
"Whoa!"
The crisp sound of piercing the net sounded!
Chen Yan on the bench was a little helpless when he saw this scene. Can he hit such a chasing three-pointer with a 26% three-point shooting rate?
All members of the Celtics were in really good shape tonight.
After the goal was scored, the home fans immediately became excited!
This three-pointer boosts morale!
The enthusiasm of the Celtic players on the field was suddenly aroused.
With the entire Celtics team playing vigorous defense, the Suns fell into a misfire, and it was not until three and a half minutes later that another sports game score was scored.
The score difference between the two sides has been close to 10 points.
D'Antoni called a timeout and sent Nash and Chen Yan ahead of time. Without these two players, the Suns would have collapsed.
The two opened up the Suns' offensive situation as soon as they came up.
Nash used Stoudemire's cover to get inside, and found Chen Yan with a clever pass!
After receiving the ball, Chen Yan rushed into the penalty area!
Facing the defense of Tony Allen and Al Jefferson, Chen Yan pulled the lever under the basket and easily scored with a reverse basket!
91 to 97!
“This lever is so chic!”
"The handwork is great, and the finishing ability is top-notch!"
“Great rhythm!”
"Watching Chen Yan play is a pleasure!"
After you sing, I will come on the stage. During the Celtics' offensive round, Durant made a direct hit from the high post!
91 to 99.
Durant kept nodding after the goal, and he seemed a bit unstoppable tonight.
In the arena, Celtics fans were completely excited. They had seen the hope of an upset for their team.
The sun continues to attack.
Nash dribbles forward, uses the screen to shoot an arrow while riding a horse!
The rhythm of this ball was very good, but I was a bit unlucky and it came out of the frame!
Fortunately, Diaw worked hard enough and jumped high to grab the offensive rebound.
Instead of choosing a second attack under the basket, Diaw found Chen Yan who was ambushing in the corner with a flick ball.
Chen Yan catches the ball and takes action very decisively!
"Whoa!"
The movements are picturesque, and you'll be enchanted by the dry pull!
94 to 99!
Chen Yan's three-pointer also made the noise at home a lot quieter.
Looking at the gradually narrowing point difference, the Celtics attacked a little impatiently in the next round.
After a simple pass, Durant missed a three-pointer from a 45-degree angle!
"Clang!"
The ball bounced very far, and Nash got the long rebound.
No need for conduction, Nash directly advances with the ball in quick steps!
Chen Yan is on the left, Stoudemire is on the right, and the two of them are running behind Nash.
"Wow! The Suns' counterattack is coming! Look what Nash will do with this ball!" Zhang Lili shouted loudly in the studio.
On the Celtics side, only Rondo and Tony Allen were back on defense.
In a 3-on-2 frontcourt, Nash played freely, making a fake shot and a real pass to attract firepower and then distributed it to Chen Yan who came in from behind!
Chen Yan took a step forward after catching the ball, drew his gun from outside the three-point line and fired furiously!
Chasing three-pointers in transition between offense and defense, this is his favorite rhythm.
Tony Allen made a hard save, but the ball had little impact on Chen Yan.
"Whoa!"
Pierce the net!
97 to 99!
Scoring 7 points in a row, Chen Yan once again showed his explosive scoring power, helping the Suns narrow the point difference to only two points!
