The next day, Philadelphia.

Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals of the NBA playoffs, the horror series known as the "Strangulation War" continues many years later.

Vajovia, after the Philadelphia 76ers' first win, once again faces the Boston Celtics at home.

"Huh!"

“YEAAAAH！！！”

The players of the two teams are still warming up, and there are already many fans in the stadium.

"There must be two or three thousand of them......!"

Seeing that the fans who came to see the warm-up had reached such a number, Iguodala was also stunned.

Looking back, Chen Mu made a successful shot, and the fans began to cheer as if they had seen a lore performance, what is the situation?

"I'm worried about Chen's hands!"

On the side of the commentary stage, Barkley said with a serious face: "Although I don't say it on the surface, everyone feels that MYBOY's hand has greatly affected the feel after being beaten by Kevin like that." Therefore, fans are very concerned about whether Chen's hand feeling has deteriorated, whether it is sustainable, or whether it can be recovered after a day of rest. ”

"Our TV experts have also interpreted that Chen's injury should be on his right hand, and it is very likely that he was hit by Kevin. But it can't be ruled out that there are other injury concerns, and no one knows the answer until the Philadelphia 76ers team sends an official message. ”

Smith said on the side: "We have also been trying to get in touch with the official Philadelphia 76ers team, but the team is obviously unwilling to disclose more details, only saying that Chen will be in the squad and will definitely start." ”

"This statement is too official, and you have to watch the game to know." Barkley shook his fat head and said: "There are a lot of fans who came to warm up today, it is estimated that there are about 3,000 people." This is rare, but judging from MYBOY's warm-up shooting performance just now, it doesn't seem to be a big problem. ”

"You're not a pitcher, you don't understand at all."

Rarely, Smith was the first to complain about Barkley, shook his head and said, "The shot is in." But Chen's shooting stance is indeed a bit strange. His right hand was deliberately adjusted, and it was not as smooth as before. It's like suddenly one day a shooting trainer who is said to be very good comes and tells you that the shooting moves you have practiced all your life are wrong. It's very difficult for you to start changing from this point on. ”

On the court, Chen Mu shot from mid-distance again, and the basketball continued to hit.

"Alarmist and unbelievable." Barkley came to two words of the bag, shook his head disdainfully, and said, "Look at you, don't you hit in a row?" Yes?? ”

"It's hit, but his hand is wrong!"

Smith was also in a hurry. This Chinese kid clearly has something wrong with his hands, and many people can see it, but how can it be like this when warming up? ?

"I mean, if you adjust hard, you may be able to be accurate for a while, but you can't be accurate for a lifetime! Shooting action is a matter of opinion, some people like this, some people like that, and some people like Marion and Childis! Chen is a genius and has adjusted very well. But if there is a problem with the hand shape, sooner or later it will not be accurate! ”

"Say whatever you want, MYBOY is the best anyway." Barkley didn't even listen to what Smith was saying.

on the pitch.

"Are you alright?"

Chen Mu made another mid-range shot, and Garnett's voice sounded behind him.

"Oh......? KG。 Well, it's okay, thanks for the concern. ”

Chen Mu smiled and punched with Garnett.

"That slap didn't shatter your bones, did it? Ha ha! Garnett laughed.

"No way. My bones are like Wolverine's, and they can be used as steel bars when they are pulled out. Chen Mu made a gesture to show off his muscles.

"Then get ready to be abused by us, we'll figure out how to deal with you." Cannett nodded. Dealing with a straightforward person like Chen Mu, Garnett, a straight person, feels very comfortable.

"Impossible, there is no way to limit me in this world." Chen Mu pretended to be forked: "It's you, how many points are in the first game?" 18 points? 8 rebounds? It's not like you! ”

“…… You wait! ”

This Chinese kid has always been so angry!

"It's on purpose."

Before the start of this game, there was a person on the bench on the Boston Celtics side who was not usually here.

Adelesset, the Celtics' meritorious team doctor, sat next to Reeves, who should usually be the position where the chief assistant coach Thibodeau sits, and said: "Philadelphia is very aware of the injury situation of the Chinese kid, and the offensive choice during the warm-up was deliberately made for us to see. ”

"Deliberately show shots?" Reeves asked.

"It should be, if you look closely at the points where he warms up and shoots, they are all at a 45-degree angle on both sides. For players, the shots on these two corners, and the distance between the basket and the position are basically fixed. Even if he is injured, I believe that with Chen's talent, he deliberately does targeted exercises at these two points in a day, and it is not a problem to ensure the hit rate without confrontation. ”

Lesser nodded and said: "Chen's shooting action is still a little awkward, and the starting hand is not coherent at all, obviously deliberately practiced for emergency use." I reckon in other positions, his mid-range shooting percentage will drop a lot. ”

"Then their tactical intentions are obvious...... Thank you, Ed, I'm sorry to bother you to analyze this kind of thing. Reeves patted Lysette on the shoulder.

"It's okay, it's part of my job." Lessert nodded, got up and walked to the side, taking a seat at the end of the bench and saying no more.

"Tom, it's okay to do it according to the previous arrangement, call the players over, and let's clarify the division of labor."

Thibodeau nodded, the warm-up time was almost over, and he waved the Celtics players to his side.

"45 degrees on both sides, near the horns."

Pick up the tactical board, Thibodeau replaces Reeves, and the layout of defensive tactics is directly explained by him.

"On the basis of our original defensive strategy, we should pay special attention to these two points, if the Chinese kid takes the ball on these two points, Kevin, don't 'do that' for the time being."

"OK, I also noticed that his shooting is still accurate at these two points." Ganei nodded, he went to talk to Chen Mu just now. It's not just a blind hala, it's also a mission.

"At these two points, Chen takes the ball, don't wrap it, Kevin blocks him to shoot in the front, be careful of his one-handed feints, it's very confusing, don't jump easily." Thibodeau continued: "I speculate that even if he shoots a little bit more at these two points than he does at other points, as long as there is defensive pressure and physical contact, it is still not as accurate as usual. ”

"Strangled these two points of the shot. In other positions, Chen receives the ball, so don't worry about his mid-range shot. Whoever is on the perimeter is closest to him, go up and interfere, and then Kevin and Kendrick do their best to grab the rebound and can't let him power under the basket. ”

After saying the content to be adjusted, Xibode's eyes changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Remember our plan, don't mess up, the Chinese kid is not invincible." Philadelphia's perimeter couldn't have been that high. Don't be drawn to the outside line. ”

"We're going to encircle Chen's basket with all our ......!"

“1、2、3、CELTICS！！！”

Chen, are you ready?

Walking onto the court, Garnett sorted out his sweatpants, his eyes always staring at Chen Mu.

I haven't done that in a long, long time. Ever since I became a superstar, I haven't defended a player like this.

It's an honor to be treated like ours defensively......!

"Beep-!"

Five minutes later, the basketball was tossed high. It's game on!

"Philadelphia ball possession!"

As Smith shouted, Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals began, and the ball fell to the Philadelphia 76ers. Lowry didn't make a quick attack after controlling the ball. Instead, they continued to play half-time.

Chen Mu covered in a high position, and after sending Iguodala down the bottom corner, he turned around and went down, preparing to turn his back as usual.

Then he saw a wonderful sight.

“KG……？？！”

In front of Chen Mu, Kevin Garnett, who should have come behind Chen Mu quickly at this time, did not return to the basket area when he defended Chen Mu's back singles.

Instead, he stayed in front of Chen Mu.

Defend around the front!

Chen Mu remembers that Garnett is a player who rarely defends in front of him. There are two reasons for this, first, Garnett's height and reach make him a BUG-level defensive machine at the No. 4 position. Most of the interior players face Garnett, and there is a gap in height and arm span, including Chen Mu.

In this case, Garnett has no need to go around the front defense, with his bounce and mobility, even in the face of Duncan and Dirk, Garnett can interfere.

The second reason is that Garnett's strength is not weak, but it is definitely not a strong point. After going around, there will be a gap behind the defender, and if the outside player directly hangs the pass and receives the empty pass, it will be difficult for Garnett to adjust his position at that moment and return to the defender and the basket.

Especially in the face of Chen Mu and O'Neal, who have terrifying heavy weapons on the inside, they can be prevented from receiving the ball smoothly and hitting their backs and singles smoothly, but they can't prevent them from coming directly to a shark step and winning the empty catch.

Garnett would do that, then......

"Bang"

Behind Chen Mu, a force struck.

This sense of power ...... It's Perkins!

Behind Chen Mu, Perkins, who had terrifying power when he first joined the alliance, was on the top behind him, and Garnett, a big spider defense expert with explosive mobility, circled in front of him.

Chen Mu has become the sandwich in the middle of Oreo.

No, you can't pass the ball!

On the strong side, Lowry and Iguodala have completed their cooperation, the basketball comes to the corner, and Iguodala habitually wants to send a hanging pass inside.

But Garnett, his body was stuck to Chen Mu standing between the two, and on the way of basketball, the defense of the big spider was not easy to break through.

Iguodala was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was about to break through forcefully, and as soon as he started, he felt the body in front of him lean back and fall to the ground with a bang.

"Beep! Philadelphia 76ers offensive foul !! ”

“WHAT……？！！！”

Amid the boos from the audience, Paul Pierce chewed gum, lay on the ground, tilted his head, and looked at Iguodala with a foul face.

"Young man, I'm so anxious."

Pierce said with a smile.

Although it has only just begun, the Philadelphia players know that they have fallen into the biggest crisis ...... the playoffs so far! (To be continued.) )

PS: Erupt today! Four more!

If you want to explode, you will explode gorgeously! Old time, old place, have a good time!

Together with Chen Mu, sink the Celtics!!
