Stephen Marbury came on to the court and had an immediate effect, and when Lagalondo played the tangle defense again, he directly changed direction to shake off a bit of space and then turned around to wipe out Rondo's defense.

Immediately, he quickly rushed into the three-point line, and Paul Pierce had to take advantage of the situation to delay.

At this point, Marbury immediately played the ball to Dugg.

Dugg, who was one step inside the free throw line, received the basketball, and Glen Davis hurriedly opened his arms to defend it.

On the offensive end, Davis is a good pick-and-roll player, and his tonnage and his mid-range shooting can be a great help to point guards.

But on the defensive end, his defense against ball-carriers is relatively weak, especially when Dug uses a change-of-direction break against him, and the poor lateral movement immediately stands out.

Dugg almost milliseconds strangled his defense into the paint, Kentrick Perkins quickly came to help, Dug rose to the challenge, broke through to the depths of the box with his body, and when he didn't dare to turn back, quickly tricked him with a feigned upward shot, and then smashed the ball to Milicic behind him.

Milicic received the basketball and jumped straight into the dunk, but when he was about to smash the basketball into the basket, Pierce lunged from behind him and viciously threw him to the ground.

The referee blows the whistle. The fans in the stadium cheered thunderously.

"Obviously, now Celtic is trying to show a bloodthirsty attitude. They use high-intensity physical confrontations, subtle and insidious small movements, and unrelenting fouls to intimidate and intimidate opponents. Charles Barkley said: "With this level of defense, if you don't have enough playoff experience, it's easy for you to fall out of shape. It was a tough test for the Knicks. ”

Milicic clearly wasn't used to that kind of pace of play, and despite spending the first two years of his career with the Detroit Pistons, he saw firsthand how the Wallace brothers dealt with their opponents, but still ...... Bang! Bang!

Two missed penalties.

"Don't be disturbed, if you are timid, they will be more unscrupulous." On his way back to half-time, Dugg clapped his palms and made a loud noise, trying to boost Milicic's morale.

But Milicic seems to have returned to the confused and overwhelmed state of the big European white man he had been.

He doesn't move much on the defensive end because he's always worried that Perkins will suddenly give himself an elbow or 'inadvertently' a nudge on the balls during a certain position.

The result of this distraction is... Inside: As Pierce broke through Gallinari's defence, he sprinted straight into the box to complete the dunk. During the whole process, Milicic didn't even do a good job of protecting the basket.

Dugg pursed his lips as he heard Marbury beside him instruct Milicic that the Celts were nothing more than paper tigers, and that they should not be intimidated by their grinning appearance.

But he knew that what Milicic needed more was not education, but a break, so that he could sit on the bench and calm down, and then get back on the field after doing a good job of mental construction.

So, he made eye contact with D'Antoni and signaled to replace Milicic later.

And made a '5'+'0' gesture, the meaning is very clear, he hopes that Zach Randolph, who wears the number 50 jersey, will be able to play later.

However, when Dugg turned around, D'Antoni arranged for David Lee to warm up next to him.

This action made Isaiah Thomas glare. Surprisingly, however, Zach Randolph was calm.

Actually, if you go back even further...... When D'Antoni announced that he was not in the starting lineup, he didn't step up and go crazy.

This is very different from the character he has shown in the past.

He sat there with his eyes closed, with a posture of indisputability, and his shiny and dark head faintly had Buddha light.

Meanwhile, Dugg was again fouling Kentrick Perkins on the court.

Even as Doug Rivers roared from the sidelines, the fans in the arena were angrily booing and invective.

But the referee couldn't turn a blind eye, after all, Snoopy fell hard at his feet.

"Snoopy is a total Iverson-esque suicide attack. Look at the ball, where he received a pass from Marbury at the free throw line, then quickly used his turn to dodge the defense, and then he took off one step outside the reasonable impact zone, slammed into Perkins, and pulled the rod to make more contact with him in complete disregard of his center of gravity. When he fell to the ground unprotected, I was even worried that the floor would be shattered. ”

TNT's host Earl Johnson gasped and exclaimed, "What a tough guy! ”

Swish!

In the midst of a concerted 'Kill-Snoopy' sound throughout the court, Dugg hit a free throw.

Immediately, Doug Rivers had to be replaced by Leon Bowe...... Perkins has already picked up two fouls on Dugg and he has to go off the floor.

And the Knicks replaced it with David Lee.

Dugg has no problem with David Lee.

But he thinks... Zach Randolph was the better option.

He didn't say anything about it, though. Just silently...... Swish!

Second free throw hit.

With Leon Bowe and David Lee on the field, Dugg and Glenn Davis moved to center at the same time.

However, Leon Bowe soon used his athleticism to teach David Lee a lesson. David Lee is a hard-working and uplifting player, and before Dugg arrived in New York, he was a good student in the hearts of New York fans and a hope for New York's revival. But... He has a big problem defending, whether it is a single defense or a co-defense, he seems to be more than willing and not enough.

So, Leon Bowe quickly crossed his line with a counterrun. La Garondo was conveying basketball to the past almost simultaneously.

When Dugg saw Bowe coming galloping, he immediately tried to turn around and help.

But the fat Glenn Davis jammed him, and he almost wrapped his arms around Duge's neck...... And the referee didn't blow the whistle.

In the playoffs, the scale of blowing penalties is much larger than in the regular season.

So, boom!

Leon Bowe made a slam dunk with ease and ignited enthusiasm at the North Shore Garden Arena.

Waves of sound came in waves.

Back in the half, Dugg pulled Glenn Davis to the three-point line, and Marbury went straight to the paint, caught the bag and passed to David Lee...... David Lee's shot was deflected wide of the basket with Leon Bowe's interference.

"Actually, the Knicks' tactics have already been played. But... David Lee was a little too nervous to play the playoffs for the first time. Speaking in the commentary booth, Earl Johnson emphasized: "In the playoffs, experience is very important. ”

"Why not Zach Randolph?" Charles Barkley also mentioned Randolph Fat, Barkley has always admired him, they are both low-centered, big-ass and small-tech players, even in Randolph's darkest years in Portland, Barkley has always believed that he can play a good game.

The game is still going on.

With Dugg hitting a three-pointer from beyond the three-point line, the Knicks were finally able to salvage some of the situation. Because the Bostonians had to expand some of their defensive attention beyond the three-point line, and as the defense expanded beyond the three-point line, the Celtics' interior without Kevin Garnett and Kentrick Perkins immediately created a vacuum. Marbury and Jeffries continued to break into the box to gain the balance of power for the team.

But it's still the Celtics who are in control of the rhythm, and the Knicks don't have a hint of reversal.

When there are 2 minutes and 30 seconds left in the first quarter.

Backbite!

Isaiah Thomas reached out and asked for a timeout.

"David Lee and Gallinari are out on the break. Zach Randolph and Quentin Richardson are on the field! ”

Isaiah Thomas couldn't wait to be replaced by his descendant.

He then began to set up positional offensive and defensive tactics, expanding the tempo of a single attack to 20 seconds, completely overturning D'Antoni's previous concept of fast attack and defense, and he wanted to seek shooting percentage and defensive control.

But that's exactly what the Boston Celtics are good at.

Pause back.

The Knicks' offensive and defensive tempo plummeted, and the Boston Celtics slowed down.

Doug Rivers had a snickering expression on the sidelines, and the Celtics were the least afraid of this one-ball grinding-one-ball rhythm. This kind of rhythm requires a lot of understanding and overall tactical literacy, and this is the strength of Celtic.

But this... It's not the Knicks' forte.

Although all five Knicks players can slow down and play positional offense, the tacit understanding between them is undoubtedly lacking much compared to the Celtics, who have been polished for two seasons, and their patience on the offensive end is not as good as the Celtics, whether it is Zach Randolph or Quentin Richardson, or even Stephen Marbury, they are not good at doing consecutive multiple ball passing.

As a result, the Knicks' offensive efficiency is not very high. Coupled with the fact that there is no outside heads-up, the flaw is magnified in positional warfare, so... The Knicks still haven't been able to turn the tide around.

However, Dugg and Zach Randolph played a tacit understanding of offense and defense on the inside. In addition, the shooting percentage of the Celtics' rotation players is not too high, so that the point difference is always around 10 points.

The second quarter went into the 4th minute, and the rotation time ended.

D'Antoni was quick to bring on Milicic, David Lee and Gallinari. Replace the limited Marbury, Quentin Richardson and Zach Randolph.

Dugg was in charge of the No. 1 position in this lineup, and in the quick offense and defense, he used playmaking and tandem to stabilize the team's point difference.

By the end of the first half, it was 46:57.

The Celtics led by 11 points heading into the second half.

"Hey, Duke Mr. Dog, where has your arrogance gone? Why are you playing like a Chihuahua with your vocal cords cut off today? It's too fragile. ”

At the end of the game, Lagalondo triumphantly passed by Dug, and contemptuously threw down trash talk: "You are really boring like this." ”

Dugg ignored his rampant arrogance and strode towards the players' tunnel.

Along the way, Celtic fans continued to greet him with foul language, and even mixed with a lot of racist remarks.

These things kept burning the anger in his heart.

His fists clenched tighter and tighter, and his eyes became more determined.

When he returned to the locker room.

Isaiah Thomas and D'Antoni were already arguing in front of the tactical board.

"Your run-and-run set is not going to do anything for the Celtics at all, and only I can lead the Knicks to victory. Boston are without Kevin Garnett, they have a natural fear of positional warfare, Snoopy and Zach have had good chemistry just now, and if I had been in full command in the second half, I could easily have equalled the 11-point deficit and won the game. ”

Before Thomas's words fell, D'Antoni immediately retorted sarcastically: "Positional battles are not just words, we don't have super scorers, and rashly slowing down the pace can only be a dead end." Now, what you should do is pack your bags and head back to New York right away......"

The two chattered endlessly, from arguments at the tactical level to digging into each other's black histories.

Isaiah Thomas claims that D'Antoni never proved himself in the playoffs and that he was just a fancy regular-season coach.

And D'Antoni said that Isaiah Thomas is simply a mediocre man with big ambitions and talents, and he doesn't even have the most basic tactical concepts, but he only knows how to make the team a mess, and the Raptors, Pacers, and Knicks are all harmed by him.

The atmosphere in the dressing room was messed up by the two of them, and the players were staring blankly at them, no one knew when they would stop, and then give a second-half response. But judging from the growing emotions of the two, they do not have the consciousness to put the game first, and they only want to seize the lead in the control of the team now.

At this time, Duge, who was pale, finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He stood up and made his loud voice: "Enough!!" ”

"It's time to stop this ridiculous and stupid infighting!!"

D'Antoni and Isaiah Thomas looked at him at the same time.
