At the end of the second quarter, the Nets felt that they were struggling to even parry. Although it looks good, the Celtics are obviously working better overall!

"That's right, we're back on the starting line with them after two quarters," Chan said to Jim in the hallway. In the first coaching game after Chen came back tonight, the assistant coaches hadn't seen Chen's joy for a long time, and now Chen and their faces are not so relaxed, and they look very different.

59：57！ While the Nets are still ahead, the Greenshirts are on the verge of tying the score. The opponent began to calm down as the game progressed today. It's scary, the other side has the ability to chase the score back!

"I want you to pay extra attention to the outside and the inside defense! Don't miss every chance to prevent the opponent from scoring or attacking to score directly! Mentally relaxed, the game is basically not too much form, not to mention that we are facing the Nets......"

Stevens didn't take a break at half-time, thinking about how much of a possibility there was for the two sides in the second half, and how to deal with the opposing attack, which gave him a lot of headaches. If it weren't for the second quarter of the game, his team's performance would have been passable, and he would have given up in this quarter.

It's a game of strategy depending on the form of the players! The Celtics are playing well, and what the Nets don't want to see has emerged.

"That's right, don't be a burden. I've told you before, that's the second scenario, it's still not the playoffs, remember that. I don't want you to just hit it casually, it's not this, but to make you pay attention to where the other party is good when they play well."

With about five minutes to go, Chen walked into the dressing room, where three of the players were still asleep and were woken up. After two minutes, Chen began to speak. From their expressions, you can see the impact of the opponent's sudden return to their players.

Originally, both the coaching staff and the players were thinking that if they put the opponent in garbage time in the third quarter. Now it's good, looking at the score difference at the end of the first half, it would be good not to be overtaken by the opponent and open up the difference in the third quarter......

"If you have a chance, you can vote again, and we are not in a hurry to play with them now. It is estimated that the opponent is also asking for this, that is, the stability in the game, and I have to say that they played very well in the second quarter! We can do that, as long as the tempo slows down, and I believe that my players are not inferior in terms of ability, and the players on the inside are ready to attack at any time......"

The fans at the scene were quite excited at this time! They love to watch the two teams play to the end! Then the suspense will always be there! The Celtics, for their part, clearly didn't want to lose, and they also took their form to new heights later in the second quarter!

The state of the Green Shirts also has a certain impact on the state of the Nets, and here in Brooklyn there began to be mistakes, decreased accuracy, and the pace of coordination could not keep up. Every time it showed up, it was an opportunity for them, and they did a good job.

Coming up in the third quarter, the opposing lineup was Monroe, Baines, Hayward, Ray Allen, and Terry. On the Nets' side are Allen, Mozgov, Williamson, Jeremy Lin and Burke!

This quarter of the game is important for both teams! In order to allow some players to get rest, Chen let Allen play them! Today is not the time to give the substitutes a chance to play because the opponent is in better shape now.

Hayward's mind was ready to perform on the court at this time. In the first half, he was replaced prematurely by Stevens because he did not play well.

Terry got the ball and went to the frontcourt, and Chen stood on the sidelines watching the score. It's hard to say how far he'll be going this season. Thinking about the performance of some teams in the East this season makes him uncomfortable. I saw it in the video, such as the Heat, the 76ers These teams played really well, why can't the Nets rush to the end?

And the media compared the Raptors to the Hawks a few years ago. Previously, the Raptors, Hawks, and Wizards were listed as the successor teams in the East except for the Cavaliers! However, after a few seasons, the Hawks were reimbursed, the Wizards were on a downward spiral, and the Raptors were eliminated from the playoffs as soon as they met the Cavaliers, but now it has to be said that they may have to reach new heights in some stats this season!

The Nets, who ranked first in the regular season, didn't care too much about this title, one is that it is more difficult for the team's internal players to compete, where is the winning rate, and if they care too much about the winning rate, some players in the team will have less time to develop.

The other point is that the Nets don't want to compete for the title of No. 1 in the regular season. Although they got what they wanted last season! But Chen knows that it will be difficult to master something this season.

The final result will only be in the playoffs to see which team is good. Hayward got the basketball and passed the ball directly to Monroe from Williamson, who scored with a quick throw! 59：59！

Burke crossed the half court after receiving Allen's ball, and Lin got his ball and missed a three-point jumper from Ray Allen! Mozgov grabbed a quick rebound and passed the ball to Allen, and Williamson didn't have a three-pointer after receiving the ball in the bottom corner!

Hayward got the rebound, Terry took the basketball and quickly went to the frontcourt, and Baines took the basketball and threw it too hastily and didn't score! Hayward came straight over and got the basketball dunk! 61：59！

The start of the game felt like both teams were a little nervous. They have some reasons for their cooperation and personal choices, and in short, the rhythm is a little stiff. Online discussions about the two teams say that it is very likely that in the playoffs, the two teams will meet in the East finals.

Mozgov served to Jemilin, Lin came to the front court, and stepped on the line for a 2-point jump shot next to Terry! 61：61！

The intensity of the opponent's defense is not small! Every player can really feel it! The Nets will come back to defense immediately after this round! Hayward got Ray Allen's pass and hit a three-pointer straight from Williamson! 64：61！

Williamson took the initiative to ask for the ball after half-time! He wanted to make a layup from Hayward, but was directly defended by the opponent! After Ray Allen got the ball, he began to quickly go to the frontcourt, and Terry took his ball and scored directly to the basket! 66：61！ Chen directly signaled for a timeout at this time!

"As soon as Rose goes up, there will be some changes in the style of play, that is, the defense will be weakened, and the main focus will be on breaking points. There are some things that can be ignored and I want to be able to score points in every round as much as possible......"

Chen found that something was wrong, and if he didn't stop it in time, he would probably have to explain the game.

"Keep it up and play like this until the end of the third quarter, that's the only thing I want of you in this quarter......" Stevens wasn't sure if his team was out of shape today, but now it's better than the Nets, and the momentum is stronger, which makes him more comfortable.

At least the team still has a chance to play like this, and if they play like in the first quarter, they will basically have to change a lot of substitutes now.

Rose dribbled the ball across the halfcourt, and Lin immediately rushed to the inside to score an easy layup after receiving his pass! 66：63！ Chen's meaning is to let Jamilin play more in this offensive quarter, and Rose's words just keep his physical strength good.

Terry passed the half quietly, and Ray Allen jumped up and hit a three-point shot immediately after getting the basketball! 69：63！ This is the Celtics who bring their strength to the fullest! If their current lineup plays like this, it will still be terrifying in terms of scoring.

Ray Allen, this player, in Curry, they were a well-known figure among shooters when they were younger! Williamson watched Hayward not far away hold the ball to the frontcourt, he didn't mean to pass the ball, and the opponent was also seriously coming to defend.

From the first game against Hayward when he was embarrassed by the opponent's defense, Williamson has been making changes in his training! Unless you're the best player in the league! No one can beat you in that position! Otherwise, you'll always run into top players competing against you!

Williamson actually doesn't need to be too annoyed, many players used to be star players in college and changed careers not long after they arrived in the NBA, they were benched, and they were delegated. And although he is not the best player after joining the NBA, he is definitely not the worst player!

Suddenly starting to speed up, using the coordination of his body, Williamson quickly retracted his strength, turned around, widened the distance between the two sides, and immediately stepped back to shoot a 2-point jumper! 69：65！ Playing with a player like Hayward is to avoid too much physical contact.

People are not afraid of you and his physical confrontation, but Williamson feels that any physical confrontation in previous contact with him has little chance of scoring. I'm not going to experiment with him today. Instead, listen to what Chen said in the third quarter of the game as much as possible, and break through quickly!

Defending or attacking, Chan chose the latter on this issue. Being able to score quickly can also get a lot of encouragement for the team's morale, and sometimes it doesn't have much effect.

Hayward went to the frontcourt and used his pace here to shoot a quick three-pointer with his footsteps! 72：65！ Williamson dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Lin quickly got his ball and threw a back-to-back jumper to get a three-pointer!

Rose felt a lot easier playing the playmaking guard in this quarter, and after some effort on defense, it was a round of running and passing. Baines jumped up and shot immediately after receiving Ray Allen's pass! Allen got the basketball and quickly passed the ball to Rose, Lin took the basketball and threw it high to Williamson, who hit a three-point shot without defense! 72：71！

Stevens is about to take a timeout. If you fight like this, he still doesn't think it will work now. It should at least maintain a score difference of about 8 points with the Nets!

"The opponent is shooting more frequently on the outside right now, so you have to pay more attention to that, because their passing and quick jumpers work well. Also, when passing the ball, give more to the post players and try to keep the score ......"

After this timeout, he hoped that the team would play in his direction.

"Just be careful, don't be too casual," Chen still felt a little abrupt about the pause.

Come back and Owen is replaced! Rose didn't stop him! In a quick attack, Irving scored a layup after passing Williamson directly!! 74：71！

Williamson doesn't have much sense of defenders, and he mainly defends players in his position, but when he comes into contact with players like Irving, he feels that Irving is a very strong player of his age!

It's not that he's strong, but the kind of dribbling ability and spirituality he shows on the court makes opponents really can't do anything about him sometimes.

Lin carried the ball to the frontcourt, Williamson took the basketball and quickly passed it to Mozgov! The latter immediately let Baines receive a foul and play 2+1!

The third quarter ended with 89:85! The Nets lead into the fourth quarter!

......

"They played well in today's game, and they sometimes did a better job of pressing the tempo than us. You know we want to win this game too, and in the end we have to fight each other."

Chen didn't have a look of joy on his face at this time, he hadn't coached for a while, and today made him feel quite tired. The game almost went to extra time......

131：129！ In the end, as soon as the Celtics get this head, let's fight! The two teams began to score like crazy! The last round was supposed to be 7.6 seconds left for the Greenshirts! But in the end, Owen didn't hit the crucial shot! If this three points go in, it will be a different story.

......

"Hello? Anna, where are you? Chen came back and called Anna.

"I bought a lot of vegetables, it's better to drive~"

"Where are you? I'll go over," Chen said as soon as he heard it.

"It's in XX supermarket~Just came out~It's so heavy~"

Chen immediately went out and looked at the street sign a little, he was still not familiar with this place, and he didn't go out and walk around with Anna Tai after getting married......

This is a house I bought in Brooklyn, although it is a bit far from the training hall, but the environment is good. A two-storey house for two people is still a bit big at night. When confronted with this problem, Anna said that it would be nice to have a child!

If you have two children, the house is about the same, and if you want to hire a nanny, but the two of them don't hire a nanny now.

"There is no danger, oh my god when the last ball was going to be reversed~ Thank God, the Celtics still didn't kill us" Chen came back to his senses, and after putting down the dishes, the two of them immediately put on aprons and began to look at how to eat these dishes......

When Chen lives alone, he can just have a bite to eat, and from time to time he can also cook some delicious Chinese food for himself. At the dinner table, he talked about some of the things that happened to him in the team and the players, and there were really a lot of things this day~

Anna said that when she was teaching students at school, different careers were still very good, and the two of them felt fresh and interesting when they heard these things~ I hadn't talked about these things when we were together before~
