Chapter 304: I Never Expected

"Rajan, pay attention to the rhythm, control the rhythm, don't be led up by the other side."

Dough Reeves shouted.

Qin Yang could hear it from a distance.

Rumors that Dougreaves is a passionate coach who can inspire people are true, and looking at Dough Greaves' voice after the timeout, it is a bit exaggerated.

On the Magic side, Coach Van Gundy's reaction was lackluster.

"The opposite side will slow down the tempo, but you don't have to follow their rhythm, play fast, so that the opposite side can't keep up, the offensive efficiency will naturally increase, if necessary, use foul tactics to play against Rajon Rondo."

Coach Van Gundy has been prepared for a long time, and although he is not adaptable, he is decisive at this time.

Qin Yang stood on the sidelines, almost laughing.

The game continues.

On the first ball, the Celtics began to grind the time and control the tempo.

To be honest, Rajon Rondo is a very good point guard, his passing ability is definitely not weaker than Qin Yang, and the top ten assists in this season's list, Qin Yang and Rajon Rondo each account for half.

Rondo has more than 15+ assists in five times, which is no worse than what Qin Yang did.

Rondo's defense, rebounding, and point guard are extremely perverted.

Breakthrough is also the most powerful person in point guard.

However, Rondo's flaws are also obvious, and the shooting is too scummy. On top of that, Rondo's control of the rhythm is not good.

Many people think that Rondo is as good as Jason Kidd, and the technical characteristics of the two are almost identical, with strong defense, strong rebounding, strong passing, and scummy shooting.

But...... Jason Kidd is good at bringing rhythm.

Rondo is not good at rhythm.

That's why Coach Doug Reaves wanted to call a timeout.

In terms of organizational ability, Rondo is very strong, and his passing is sharper than Qin Yang's vaguely better, but compared to the rhythm, Rondo is not good at all, and the most direct expression is that after half time, Pierce is required to be in a position.

Pierce's organizational skills are average, but he is very good at controlling the tempo.

In fact, most of the core, regardless of the passing, has been very good at controlling the tempo in countless games, and Rondo has not done a good job of this point.

Pierce pressed the rhythm, and the Magic team was a little anxious.

Rondo looks for opportunities, and catching the ball is a breakthrough.

At this time, Jason Williams stepped forward with a crisp foul and sent Rondo a free throw, which stunned everyone in the Celtics, what the hell is this Nima.

Immediately after that, Rondo took the ball, looked at the basket, and retreated in his heart.

Boom!

The first ball was successfully struck with iron.

Fortunately, after the second ball Rondo shot, the basketball bumped into the frame, otherwise Rondo really had no place to reason.

But even if one was scored, the fans at Amway Arena burst into laughter.

Kenny Smith even laughed and explained: "Rondo's shooting is not very good, and the free throws are very average, this kind of free throws are almost comparable to O'Neal." ”

O'Neal, as the strongest interior player in NBA history, has the worst thing about making free throws.

Even the so-called shark-cutting tactics developed by NBA coaches for this.

But this tactic is not just aimed at O'Neal, and centers such as Howard have also suffered from it and are deeply hated by it. Now it's the turn of the center again.

"Yes, Rondo's free-throw shooting rate this season is 59.6%, and less than 60% of the free-throw percentage is enough to be the difference between victory and defeat when it comes to crunch time."

Charles Barkley took the note handed by the staff, glanced at it, and then pretended to speak.

Whether you can use shark cutting tactics, the key depends on the player's free throw shooting rate, generally the free throw shooting rate is more than 70%, the effect of shark cutting tactics is average, free throw shooting rate reaches 80%, no one is stupid to use such tactics.

As for the free throw shooting percentage, it is 90 percent...... Generally, such players will specialize in a technique, which is called touching porcelain.

Shark slashing tactics, forget it.

"It's the first time I've seen a center shoot so badly."

Charles Barkley couldn't help but complain.

Kenny Smith was also speechless for a while, so he had to say:

"Hopefully this tactic doesn't affect Celtic too much, otherwise there will be nothing to watch in this game."

The game is still going on.

After Rajon Rondo's free throw, the Magic quickly served, and this time Vince Carter hit the iron, but the Magic didn't panic at all, and Rondo wanted to break through with the help of cover.

Seeing this, Vince Carter decisively stepped forward to foul him.

At this moment, Rondo felt like a dog in the sun.

The face is ugly.

Qin Yang sat on the sidelines and laughed directly, and the screen on the scene gave the camera to Qin Yang very powerfully, Qin Yang laughed, patted his thigh, and made Barnes stunned.

It made the home fans burst into laughter.

Immediately after, Rondo missed two free throws.

Dougreaves lost his temper and yelled directly on the sidelines.

The Magic team attacked, still a fast attack, Redick received the ball, attracted the defense and passed to Gortat, Gortat hit an easy shot from the middle distance of the baseline.

The Celtics attacked, and Rasheed Wallace hit a low hook shot at a crucial moment.

However, this will not change the situation of the game between the two teams.

The Magic team wants to play a fast pace, which is easier in itself, the Celtics did not do a good job of lowering the tempo, and the shooting rate was not high, Rajon Rondo was fouled again and again, and the shooting rate was just over 50%.

Especially when Rondo walked to the free throw line again and again, the audience simply burst into laughter.

At the end of the second quarter, the Magic led by 11 points.

11 points at halftime, this point difference is almost fatal.

With the advantage of absolute strength, there is no suspense for the Magic team to win.

The outside rhythm is very good, the inside Howard's dominance is undoubted, and the strength of the Magic team is too strong.

In the second half, Celtic still wanted to turn it around.

But Qin Yang was not polite after he came on the court, he still had a rhythm, and the fast attack flew up, and he made 4 of 6 three-pointers in the third quarter, which directly made the Celtics choose to give up the game.

It was supposed to be a crucial battle at a critical moment, and the Magic team won like this.

The most embarrassing scene in this game was that Rajon Rondo walked to the free throw line again and again at critical moments, making 7 of 16 free throws in the game, shooting less than 50%.

Completely cheated the team.

After winning the game, Qin Yang complained frantically when he was interviewed by the media after the game:

"It's not a battle that is as easy to win as it seems, the Celtics are very strong, I have no doubt about the fighting spirit and strength of the Big Three, it's just a pity that we are more united, better, younger, and we have the best sixth man, Rajondo, thanks to Rajondo for not scoring free throws again and again, thanks to Rajondo for not daring to shoot in the open space, which has helped us better defend the Celtics, I think this is the best news for the Magic team in this series."

Seizing the opportunity, Qin Yang will not be polite.

When Rondo was on trial, he rubbed Qin Yang, and the foul language in his mouth kept stopping, and then he was targeted by various things, but now Qin Yang will not be polite.

Heaven is a good reincarnation, and the sky forgives whom.

Qin Yang thought that after this wave of rhythm after the game, Rajon Rondo would be hacked into a dog, but he never expected that someone would steal the show more than Rondo.
