Chapter 647: That Sudden Background Panel!
The Celtics scored 64 points at halftime!
This half-time loss made the Seattle SuperSonics locker room as quiet as death.
Before the start of this game, SuperSonics players all knew that this game would be difficult to play. Ray Allen's game would definitely be completely different from the previous two games.
However, they really didn't expect that this game would be so different!
64 points at halftime!
Although this year's playoffs, this is not the first time that the Sonics have lost so many points.
In the games against the Suns, the Nuggets and the Rockets, the Sonics lost even more points.
However, this opponent is not the Nuggets, not the Suns, not the Rockets, but the Celtics. It is the Boston Celtics, who averaged only 95 points per game in this year's playoffs!
They actually allowed a team that averaged less than 100 points per game in the playoffs to score 64 points in halftime!
What is even more suffocating is that the fact that they allowed the Celtics to score 64 points at halftime in this game was not because their performance was not good enough and there was something that needed to be reviewed.
In fact, the Seattle SuperSonics players performed very well in this half of the game.
In just two days, traveling 5,000 kilometers across the border to play in Boston, the SuperSonics players overcame many difficulties in this game.
In addition to allowing Ray Allen to score 28 points at halftime, whether it is Garnett, Pierce or other Celtics players, the performance data in this game so far are quite dismal.
This is also a headache for Nelson now, and the reason why Nelson and the Sonics players are so silent in the locker room now.
If the 64 points the Sonics lost in the first half were due to Garnett or Pierce or other Celtics, they could still correct it.
But this person happens to be Ray Allen!
A player they can't possibly solve no matter how hard they try!
Did Quentin Richardson not work hard enough in the first half?
In the 18 minutes that Ray Allen played,
Quentin Richardson stayed on the court all the time. In just eighteen minutes, Quentin Richardson became what he is now!
The loudest voice in the Seattle SuperSonics locker room was Quentin Richardson. His violent breathing and dripping sweat made even the most demanding coach unable to criticize his performance in the first half.
Quentin Richardson really tried his best!
His strength is such that there is really no way to defend Ray Allen!
Feeling the extremely silent atmosphere in the locker room at this time, Old Nelson sighed slightly in his heart.
He really didn't expect that one day, he would become Yes' opponent!
Didn't Ray Allen say Yes in the first half of this game?
A reduced version of Yes, a second Yes that the Sonics can't guard against no matter what.
To be honest, this was the first time Nelson felt what other head coaches in the league felt when facing Yes.
Nothing really works!
Old Nelson looked at the real Yes. When all the Sonics players were silent, Yes's eyes were also closed.
Nelson was equally satisfied with Yes' performance in the first half.
Facing a defensive team like the Celtics and Pierce's defense that almost gave up offense, Yes took 14 shots in the first half and hit 7 of them, scoring 18 points in the half. This performance is unparalleled in any game. It's enough for people, even Jordan.
What's more, Yes's game is not just about scoring. In addition to scoring, Yes also got 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the first half, with 20 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists in the half. As long as there is no garbage time, this game will be another one. Three pairs.
If Yes can really achieve a triple-double in three consecutive games in the NBA Finals, then this will really be an unprecedented legend.
Of course, Yes has now achieved a triple-double in two consecutive games in the finals, which is actually an unprecedented legend.
Of course, there are many legends like Yes, such as the previous 34 consecutive playoff games with 30+ points. This legend is even bigger and much bigger than the legend of two consecutive triple-doubles in the finals.
It can be said that Yes's performance in this game was very good, so good that Nelson would not ask too much.
He was satisfied with Yes's performance in the first half, and he was also satisfied with the performance of the rest of the team in the first half. Everyone played at a very high level and couldn't get better, but the team fell behind by 14 points at halftime. .
what does that mean?
Nelson knows very well that this means that the real gap between the SuperSonics and the Celtics is so desperate!
There is no problem with your performance, but the opponent can lead you by a large score. Apart from the gap in strength, what other reasons can be used to explain this?
Sometimes, the expert media in the United States really like to sensationalize, but when these media experts all agree on one thing, it is not sensationalism, but a solid fact.
For the Sonics, the fact is that they really can't stand up to Ray Allen.
Without the pursuit of Yes, Ray Allen is another Yes to the Sonics!
The other Yes brings two superstars like Garnett and Pierce. It's really impossible to win!
For Nelson and the SuperSonics, they would really rather play the Rockets, Suns and Nuggets than the Celtics!
Facing the Rockets, Suns and Nuggets, Nelson felt that he could intervene tactically.
Even when facing the Rockets, who claim to have the most perfect tactics, didn't he finally find McGrady's weakness?
In the end, he fought McGrady in a desperate way and finally defeated the Rockets miserably.
Now facing the Celtics and Ray Allen, he doesn't even have the chance to defeat Ray Allen like this.
No one may believe it. As the team with the strongest movement without the ball, the Sonics can't even find anyone to catch up with Ray Allen. This has to be said to be a situation that people don't know what to say.
Of course, the reason why the SuperSonics were the strongest in the league in off-ball movement before was entirely because of Yes. Now Yes is like this...
Old Nelson looked at the Sonics No. 9 who still had his eyes closed and didn't know what to think. Old Nelson was also quite helpless. This was the price of Yes leading the team to defeat the Rockets.
If possible, he really hopes that the team can have two Yes!
But this is just fantasy.
Yes is a rare player in 72 years.
Why not seventy-two years instead of a hundred years?
Because the NBA is only 72 years old now. If the NBA is a thousand years old in the future, Yes will be a player that is rare to see in a thousand years.
The emergence of one such player is already a gift from God, how can there be two.
Therefore, for Nelson and the Sonics, there is really not much they can do now, just like the rest of the league when facing Yes, pray that Yes's touch will not be so hot.
The atmosphere in the Seattle SuperSonics locker room is very solemn now, and everyone's faces are very calm now.
Only Rondo lowered his head now, but his eyes kept turning.
Although he had already prepared to prove something like Du Shiwu in this game.
But he is always looking for opportunities, looking for a chance to save the team!
When the team was in crisis, when Yes was in danger, the powerful Long Erye descended from the sky and wiped out the monster-like hypocrite.
However, that hypocrite was still really fierce. The second master didn't even find a chance to deal with him. This monster almost wiped out the second master and his team in half a game.
Look at what Second Master’s younger brothers look like now.
It would have been impossible for the second master if he didn't break out in advance.
Don't worry, little brothers, the second master caught that hypocrite and monster in the second half!
"Rajan, your hand strength is too weak, please use a little more force."
Work hard!
Rondo, who was imagining how powerful he was, cursed in his mind to Quentin Richardson, who was sitting in front of him and being massaged by him.
Look, the second master won’t let you shine his shoes after he becomes the boss!
Although he was secretly cursing Quentin Richardson, Rondo's movements on his hands increased.
Before letting you shine your shoes, the second master will strangle you to death!
"O, OK, that's it~"
Listening to the comfortable tone in Quentin Richardson's tired voice, and using his peripheral vision to catch a glimpse of the guys around him looking at him eagerly, Rondo was beating Quentin Richardson's hands on the shoulders. They all shook subconsciously.
These inhumane guys!
"What should I do if my hands are tired from massaging us and I have no strength during the game? Rajan, your iron hands are of no use on the court anyway. It's better to get tired off the court so that you can throw less on the court. Yes can also be more relaxed.”
Is this why you bully me? !
When the second master becomes the boss, I will ask you to shine his shoes one by one!
In the second half, it's time for the second master to attack the boss's position!
It's all like this. The second master doesn't pretend anymore. The second master has shown his cards. After all, if he doesn't pretend, he will either get out or become the boss of the Sonics. No matter if he becomes the boss or gets out, the second master doesn't want to serve you guys anyway. What a bastard!
"Quentin, it's okay, it's my turn!"
"And me, I was very tired from supporting Garnett in the first half!"
"Don't you think we substitute players aren't tired?"
"It would be nice if there were more Rajon."
"If you want to exhaust Yes to death, you need a few more La Janes."
"..."
So exhausted!
See if I don't strangle you one by one!
Seeing the cheerful atmosphere in the locker room now, Nelson, who had been frowning, had a helpless smile on his face.
Don’t you want to put pressure on Yes…
The joy that Old Nelson saw on the faces of these young men was the cruelest joy he had ever seen in his life.
There was a cheerful atmosphere in the Seattle SuperSonics locker room, but on the other side of the Celtics locker room, it was terrifyingly quiet, even scarier than the quiet atmosphere in the Sonics locker room at the beginning.
There was no joy in taking a half-time lead.
Rivers looked at the atmosphere in the locker room and didn't care at all. Ray Allen didn't want to celebrate, and there was no need for others to be warm and cold.
Anyway, these don't matter, as long as we win this game, as long as we can win this series, as long as we can win the championship!
None of this matters!
During the halftime break, the Seattle SuperSonics and Boston Celtics were very rare and did not make any tactical adjustments.
Of course, no one else knows about what happened in the Celtics and SuperSonics locker rooms.
Now Celtics fans are celebrating and SuperSonics fans are worried.
And neutral viewers like Kobe were in awe.
"In this game, Ray Allen made the Seattle SuperSonics his backdrop!"
At this time, Kobe was praising, and James was relieved.
In this half of the game, they finally saw what they wanted to see.
Yes, who was omnipotent in this year's playoffs, is still omnipotent, but opposite him, a player who is even more omnipotent finally appeared.
Now, finally, someone can stop him!
"The runner-up is the biggest loser!"
This year, Yes will be the biggest loser!
At this time, James found himself agreeing with Kobe's words for the first time.
This year, Yes's greatness will bring a stain on his career that cannot be erased!
Sometimes, in terms of public opinion, the runner-up is even worse than him in not being able to enter the playoffs!
"In the future, even if I can't win the championship, I don't want to be the runner-up!"
James secretly vowed in his heart that his career does not need a footnote like runner-up!
"If the Heat appear in the Finals now, I can be like Ray Allen and let the entire Sonics become my background!"
The current Yes is very powerful, but the current Yes has lost its deterrence against players like him or Ray Allen.
Ray Allen's craziness in this half made Wade feel like he could do it too.
This half of the game between the Celtics and SuperSonics, in the eyes of many people, is the half of the game that can determine the final outcome of this round of finals.
When this half of the game didn't happen, others were just imagining Ray Allen's advantage in this series.
Now, imagination has become reality!
"Now, the Celtics only need 24 more minutes to win their first victory in the finals!"
"Now, the second half of G3 of the 2008 Finals begins again!"
With Kenny Smith's excited voice, the game restarted and the Celtics attacked again!
"Beautiful move, Ray Allen once again dumped Quentin Richardson!"
Chris Paul looked at the Celtics No. 20 on TV with admiration in his eyes.
It's hard to imagine that such a player would be so overshadowed by the light of Yes!
In this game, his brilliance will shine throughout the world!
Um? !
Just when Chris Paul was praising him, another number appeared on the TV!
Supersonic 2? !
Rondo? !
Ray Allen was stunned for a moment when he saw Rondo suddenly appearing.
But Ray Allen was not stunned by the movements of his hands!
Against Rondo's flying dive, Ray Allen threw the basketball in his hand!
A swipe!
"With an incredible three-pointer, Ray Allen made the sudden appearance of Rondo become his shining background!"
With the Celtics fans shouting wildly, Chris Paul looked at the Sonics No. 2 on TV with a look of disdain.
And Ye Si on the court looked at the unhappy No. 2 teammate with a surprised look on his face.
He can serve as a background for Ray Allen...
