Chapter 255: Assault (2nd Watch)

At the start of the game, Howard had no suspense on the jump ball to succeed.

Qin Yang dribbled over the half, defending Qin Yang was Ray Allen, the Celtics were still a fixed starter, and the Big Four plus Perkins. The person who defended Qin Yang was Lei Allen.

Facing Lei Allen, Qin Yang was not in a hurry, and first tried to attack.

Ray Allen is a standard scoring guard with a height of 197cm and a fast speed, so he can limit Qin Yang better on the defensive end, and if Qin Yang plays alone, the efficiency may not be very high.

Therefore, after the trial, Qin Yang failed to break through and passed the ball directly to Petrus.

After the pass, Qin Yang ran the position.

Petrus was helpless by Pierce's defense and passed to Qin Yang, Ray Allen was in place again, but Rashad Lewis stepped forward directly to cover, Qin Yang did not advance with the help of cover, but directly retreated to the three-point line to shoot.

Sou!

Three-pointers scored.

After using the cover to shoot a three-point shot, this is the most common and effective way for Qin Yang to shoot this season.

Lei Allen was beaten very helplessly, and Kevin Garnett after the cover wanted to help defend, but he was a step too slow, Qin Yang's shooting speed was too fast, although Kevin Garnett was good at helping defense, it was impossible to teleport outside the three-point line to defend Qin Yang in the blink of an eye, and Rajon Rondo next to him had time to help defend, but unfortunately his height was too low and meaningless.

The first goal was scored easily, and the Celtics players looked ugly.

The Celtics attacked, Rajon Rondo slowly dribbled across the half court, handed the ball to Paul Pierce, Paul Pierce tentatively walked, then his body shook to the right, his feet stretched to the left, dribbled to the right side and then instantly pulled the ball to the left, and when Petrus defended to the left side, he easily broke through to the right side.

Pierce dance steps, the rhythm is so well controlled.

Qin Yang watched from a distance, and he could only admire it in his heart.

When it was close to the inside, Howard stepped forward to help defend, and Pierce hit a jumper shot.

Get under the basket and defend Howard before you shoot? Pierce wouldn't be so stupid. 、

After each of the two teams hit a ball at their strongest point on the offensive end, they began to play tactical coordination.

Qin Yang's defense is Rajan Rondo, the point guard who used to quarrel with Qin Yang, and now Rajan Rondo is facing Qin Yang, he can only dodge and fight, there is no way at all.

With too much height and poor projection, Rajon Rondo is inefficient on the offensive end.

The outside cover block and dismantling cooperate, Qin Yang's misplaced defense, the effect is also very good, whether it is Pierce, Ray Allen, or Kevin Garnett, when facing Qin Yang, it is difficult to shoot directly.

Qin Yang's height plays a crucial role at this time.

The speed is fast, the height advantage is obvious, the only way to beat Qin Yang is to break through, and it is the best choice to go directly to the basket to finish the offense under the basket after the breakthrough.

But it didn't work for the Magic.

The Magic interior is the league's best defensive Dwight Howard.

The defensive lineup composed of Petrus and Barnes on the outside is very strong, and the Celtics are slow in pace and constantly playing iron, and the offensive performance in the first quarter is very bad.

The Magic team didn't do well enough on the offensive end, and Qin Yang's 2-of-5 shooting percentage was average.

Howard made six free throws in the first quarter, 1-of-6, which was also devastating.

At 24-22, the Magic led by 2 points in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, the Magic changed lineup first, and Redick played in place of Barnes. The Celtics brought Rashid Wallace on the field and strengthened their defense and offense.

This change of formation is terrible.

Van Gundy's idea is to strengthen the Magic's offense, Matt Barnes' offense, very average, shooting looks at the feel, the reliable offensive way is to make a layup, under the defense of Kevin Garnett and Perkins, Barnes does not have much effect on the offensive end.

But for this substitution, Lei Allen shot directly.

Redick's defense was much worse than Barnes' defense, and Ray Allen was 1 of 3 in the first quarter, which seemed to have a low shooting percentage, but in the second quarter, he hit two shots directly.

Reddick was a little flustered.

Coming back, Rasheed Wallace singled out Rashad Lewis and scored two more goals, Coach Van Gundy made another substitution, and Brandonbas came on.

But Brandonbass is a stocky insider, and Rashid Wallace made another straight-arm jumper to push Brandonbass to the ground and rub it.

Qin Yang looked helpless, in this case, Qin Yang couldn't go to the wrong defense one by one.

Rondo couldn't shoot, but the breakthrough was still strong.

In the second quarter, the Celtics directly played a 33-24 climax, but overtook the score.

Qin Yang was completely helpless in the face of this situation, he shot a few times, the feeling was average, and he also encountered Rashid Wallace's assistance defense, 2 out of 6, and pitted his teammates.

The Celtics also showed a strong defense at this time, constantly changing defenses and assisting defenses, and there was no chaos at all.

Even Rajon Rondo misplaced Redick defended Redick, who defended Redick, doubting life.

In the third quarter, Howard appeared again, and Qin Yang went to rest.

This is also the routine of the Magic team, the two of them are staggered on the bench time, and they can better lead their teammates.

In this quarter, Howard was really fighting on the inside, Perkins was slow, Kevin Garnett was weak, and Howard was 5 out of 6 in a single quarter, scoring 11 points and 5 rebounds.

Jason Williams finished with four points and two assists on 1-of-3 shooting.

However, Rajon Rondo played better with six points and four assists, and the two teams were tied 21-21.

After three quarters, the Magic team was still ahead, and Qin Yang was holding back a breath of anger in his heart.

"Dwight, it's not okay to go on like this, wait for you to cover me, cut the basket in the air, let's beat them a few balls, we can't let them go on like this."

Qin Yang pulled Howard and whispered.

Howard nodded.

In the final quarter, Vince Carter still didn't play.

After playing well in the last game, Vince Carter made 1 of 7 in this game, with the lowest shooting percentage in the game, which was already impossible to look at, and Coach Van Gundy did not dare to let Vince Carter play.

On the inside, Gortat partners Howard, and on the outside, Qin Yang partners Petrus and Matt Barnes.

This lineup is strong defensively and weak on the offensive end.

The offense is weak, it doesn't matter, Qin Yang and Howard just force the attack.

The first ball, Howard is the cover, Qin Yang directly stepped back with the help of the cover and shot a three-point shot, but unfortunately this ball Rashid Wallace interfered in place, Qin Yang's shooting arc was a little higher, and the basketball popped out of the frame.

Howard rushed to the basket, got the rebound directly, and dunked to score.

This offensive rebound is key.

The Celtics attacked, and after the blocking, Qin Yang misplaced to defend Rashid Wallace, Qin Yang carded, not giving Rashid Wallace the possibility of a strong beat, and the interference was in place.

Rasheed Wallace shoots iron.

Howard grabbed the defensive rebound, turned around, Qin Yang forced a breakthrough directly after half court, Ray Allen followed closely, and Qin Yang passed the ball to Howard.

Howard forced a turnaround for a layup, and Kevin Garnett couldn't keep up.

Kevin Garnett is old, and his physical fitness has decreased a lot compared to the previous two years when he won the championship, Kevin Garnett's help defense itself relies on bounce, speed and arm span to help defense, and now that he is older, his help defense is not as powerful as before.

Howard is strong and not afraid at all.

When the Magic team attacked again, Qin Yang scored with a three-point shot again with the help of Matt Barnes' cover.

The Celtics' strong attack on Qin Yang and Howard couldn't be prevented.
