Chapter 350 Darko Milicic who was sprayed with saliva all over his face!

To be honest, Darko Milicic has heard of Kevin Garnett's reputation for spitting and trash talking.

It's just that he didn't expect that Kevin Garnett would drool so much.

Looking at Kevin Garnett who was crazily drinking water on the bench next to him, the features on Darko Milicic's face were almost wrinkled together.

Although Darko Milicic is not a clean freak, no one wants his face to smell like saliva.

It's just that Darko Milicic doesn't want to smell Kevin Garnett's saliva anymore, but Kevin Garnett, who just finished refilling his ammunition, doesn't plan to let Darko Milicic go!
After all, in the Celtics' tactical arrangement for this round, Dak Milicic, who is second in the list of parallel imports, is an extremely important part.

Then, when Darko Milicic left the field in the second quarter, the players on the Hawks' bench subconsciously took two steps away from Darko Milicic.

Even when Mike Woodson came to explain tactics to Darko Milicic, he had to cover his nose with his hands pretending to rub his nose!
Looking at his teammates and coaches who disliked him, Darko Milicic cursed Kevin Garnett helplessly!
So, when the two teams returned to the locker room after halftime, the first thing Darko Milicic did was to rush to the bathroom to wash off the smell on his face.

Although throughout the first half of the game, Darko Milicic was almost pickled by Kevin Garnett's saliva.

But in the face of Kevin Garnett's various provocations and the interference of various small actions, Darko Milicic did not collapse as the Celtics hoped.

Even, throughout the first half of the game, Darko Milicic perfectly played its role in the Eagles' tactical system, passing the ball, shooting mid-range shots, and posting singles from time to time.

Darko Milicic played a [-]-[-] with Kevin Garnett using the offensive methods he has re-cultivated in the past two years!

In the end, throughout the first half of the game, Darko Milicic faced Kevin Garnett throughout.

A single person scored 3 points, [-] rebounds, and [-] assists.

There is no doubt that, at least so far in this game, Darko Milicic has withstood Kevin Garnett's high pressure and the Celtics' specific targeting.

This made Kevin Garnett, who sprayed Darko Milicic for half the game, have a little bit of a soft-ass reputation for Darko Milicic!

And just when Darko Milicic withstood the Celtics' inside pressure, seeing the Celtics' first tactic in this round of the series was about to become a joke.

The other tower of the Hawks' inside twin towers, Marc Gasol, was somewhat unable to withstand Mark Blunt's teasing. At the end of the first half, he had already been fouled three times!

As a rookie player this year, since Marc Gasol entered the playoffs, his average fouls and turnovers per game have increased by 50% compared to the regular season.

It is obvious that Marc Gaso, who played in the NBA playoffs for the first time, has not been able to adapt to the penalty scale and game intensity of the NBA playoffs that are completely different from the regular season.

It's just that in the first two rounds of the series, because the overall strength of the Eagles is obviously much stronger than their opponents, so this problem with Marc Gasol has not affected the Eagles' journey to the playoffs.

However, now, after coming to the stage of the Eastern Conference finals, when facing the Celtics, whose overall strength evaluation is stronger than the Eagles.

Marc Gasol was inexperienced and was not used to the intensity of the playoffs. He was immediately caught by Rivers.

Although, Rivers originally planned to break up Darko Milicic to complete the disintegration of the Eagles' internal system, but now Darko Milicic is really out of water, just like Marc Gasol, Kyle The Special Forces' second blast option leaked chicken..., oh no!

That's nothing to say, Rivers decisively made a tactical shift and started targeting Marc Gasol!

Fortunately, when Marc Gasol got his third foul in the first half, there was only more than one minute left in the second quarter, so it didn't have much impact on the Eagles' tactical layout in the first half .

But obviously, Marc Gasol, who has already been fouled three times, will definitely be the object of the Celtics staring at the hammer after the second half of the game.

This is indeed the case, when it came to the second half of the game and the beginning of the third quarter.

The Celtics continued to use the pick-and-roll from the inside, trying to transfer Marc Gasol to the outside, to defend one-on-one against the big master and foul-making master Allen Iverson.

Although, the Eagles are already trying their best to avoid Marc Gasol from defending Allen Iverson one-on-one!

However, in the case of the Celtics specifically targeting Marc Gaso, it was inevitable in the end that he faced Allen Iverson in a Celtics offense.

Facing Marc Gasol who was constantly retreating to defend himself, Allen Iverson did not seek to cause fouls.

Instead, when Marc Gasol took a step back because of his breakthrough action, he immediately took a step back, pulled back outside the three-point line, and completed a non-interference arc top three-pointer.

"brush!"

This season, he averaged about 1.5 three-pointers per game, and Allen Iverson, who averaged 37.6% of his shots per game, made this completely uninterrupted three-pointer steadily!
Then, Allen Iverson seemed to have found an offensive password, and began to frequently look for opportunities to single-handedly hit Marc Gasol.

Allen Iverson found that facing Marc Gasol's defense, he didn't seem to need to pursue fouls.

As long as Marc Gasol is always in a state of defensive anxiety with a foul crisis and may leave the field at any time, he can get a good shooting space and breakthrough space.

Moreover, the Eagles sometimes have loopholes in the defensive rotation in order to prevent Allen Iverson from single-playing Marc Gasol, which also allows Allen Iverson to get a lot of offensive opportunities.

Then, in the third quarter, Allen Iverson single-handedly scored 50 points with a shooting rate of more than 15%.

Allen Iverson's sudden outburst directly broke the score state that the two teams had been clinging to.

At the end of the first half, although the Eagles did not further expand their lead, they still suppressed the Celtics and grasped the one-point gap.

But in the third quarter, when Allen Iverson discovered Mark Gasol's scoring code.

The score state of the two teams, which had been rising alternately, immediately turned into a score state in which the Celtics overtook the score and further opened up the score.

In the end, at the end of the three quarters, the Celtics somewhat surprised the Eagles and took a five-point lead.

To be honest, after Mike Woodson discovered Mark Gasol's defensive problems in the third quarter, he also tried to adjust Mark Gasol's defensive state through timeouts and other methods.

However, as a young second-round rookie who has just entered the NBA in his first year, Marc Gasol's strength has obviously not been able to meet what the coach said. The extent of the game.

And when Marc Gasol couldn't adjust his defensive state in time.

Mike Woodson can't immediately replace Marc Gasol. After all, the other three center players of the Eagles are very difficult to replace Marc Gasol's tactical position on the offensive end.

You must know that the Celtics are not the Magic. The defensive experience of Uncle Mu and Theo Ratliff, two veterans, has no advantage at all when facing the same old guys of the Celtics. .

After all, they are all old foxes who came out of that era, and it is difficult for anyone to fool anyone with their experience in the game!
"Obviously Marc Gasol, this year's rookie player, has performed amazingly this season.

But facing the Celtics against such a tough team inside, Marc Gasol still showed his immaturity as a rookie player! "

"And it's not just Marc Gasol, the entire Eagles except for Darko Milicic and Xu Lang, when facing the Celtics, all other players performed better than the previous two rounds of the series. It's a lot worse."

"Yes, after all, the Eagles players are too young, so I personally think that at this time, Xu Lang can no longer continue to pursue team offense!
As the leader of the Eagles and the MVP of this year's regular season, Xu Lang needs to stand up at this time and break the current predicament of the Eagles. "

If Xu Lang could hear the words of the commentators in the commentary booth, he would probably start cursing his mother violently.

As the absolute offensive and defensive core of the Eagles, Xu Lang has always been the target of the Celtics team in this game.

On the defensive end, Xu Lang needs to face Paul Pierce's entanglement, and sometimes Paul Pierce would rather pay for a foul than allow Xu Lang to smoothly assist in defense and direct his teammates to make defensive moves.

Although this will also make it difficult for Paul Pierce to play his due role on the offensive end and display his own offensive strength.

But unlike the Eagles' lack of offensive vanguards and ball-holding attackers, the Celtics have no shortage of players who can attack with the ball.

Therefore, if Paul Pierce can really complete the pair with Xu Lang, Rivers will definitely smile crookedly!
Moreover, even if Paul Pierce can't complete the pair with Xu Lang, at least it can reduce Xu Lang's influence and bonus on the Eagles' defense, which is enough!
This is not all of the Celtics' targeted plan for Xu Lang. Xu Lang was entangled by Paul Pierce on the defensive end, and his defensive influence declined.

On the offensive end, Xu Lang will also face the threat of at least two Celtics attacking at any time.

That's right, it's a pincer threat. When the Celtics defended Xu Lang, they didn't do what the Cavaliers and Magic did in the previous two rounds.

Attacking aimlessly, but always maintaining the threat of flanking Xu Lang.

This made Xu Lang feel very uncomfortable. Although Xu Lang's offensive ability is the strongest in the entire Eagles team, it is difficult for Xu Lang to maintain the attack even if he is under the attack of two or even three people to complete the attack. own offensive efficiency.

In addition, on the defensive end, the Celtics have been vaguely letting Xu Lang let go of some passing opportunities that can provide good offensive opportunities.

This made Xu Lang, who had gradually adapted to the status of point guard and gradually formed a pass-oriented basketball style, couldn't help but handed over the basketball in his hand.

In fact, Xu Lang's passes were not useless. Many Eagles players who received Xu Lang's passes took advantage of the situation to complete their shots and maintained a high offensive efficiency.

But the problem is that although the Eagles' entire team's shooting percentage remains at a little over 45%.

But obviously, such an offensive performance, there is no way for them to beat the Celtics.

Especially in the third quarter, Mark Plus had a defensive problem, allowing Allen to score 50 points in three quarters with a shooting rate of more than 15%. The offensive efficiency of the Eagles was completely crushed by the Celtics. !

In fact, this was another trap set by Rivers for Xu Lang.

That is whether Xu Lang chooses to believe in himself or his teammates when he clearly feels the high-intensity defensive oppression!

Obviously Xu Lang chose to trust his teammates in the first three quarters.

Judging from the results, Xu Lang's choice didn't seem so correct!

So, when the game started in the fourth quarter, Xu Lang made a change in his offensive choices.

The Eagles attacked, Xu Lang held the ball from the outside, looked half a step away from him, constantly adjusted his defensive position and defensive focus, and stared at his own Paul Pierce.

Ray Allen, who was in the bottom corner, was preparing to help defend against the flanking attack, and Kevin Garnett, who was only out of the three-second zone outside the countermeasure three-second zone.

And Darko Milicic, who was put two steps away by Kevin Garnett and got a decent mid-range shot!

Xu Lang really felt the Celtics' defensive malice.

Xu Lang, who has rich game experience, can clearly know that under the defensive position of the Celtics, whether it is a breakthrough or a direct shot, he will be seriously interfered with by the defense.

But even so, Xu Lang didn't intend to pass the ball again.

It was only seen that Xu Lang first commanded Marc Gasol to go up to help him block Paul Pierce's defense.

Then he directly exerted force on his thigh, and with an acceleration, he bumped into the arms of Mark Blount who followed Marc Gasol up!
Don't look at Mark Blunt as a big man over 2m10.

But Mark Blunt's weight is actually about the same as Xu Lang's.

So in front of Xu Lang who added inertia and impact, Mark Blunt was not able to stand in his defensive position, and was easily knocked aside by Xu Lang's impact.

And the moment Mark Blunt lost his defensive position, Kevin Garnett immediately shrank his defense.

Clear Darko Milicic, who has moved to the free throw line.

But Xu Lang knew that this was a defensive trap for the Celtics.

If he passes the ball to Darko Milicic at this time, Paul Pierce, who has just been blocked from the defensive position, and Mark Blunt, who has been left behind, can return to defend in time to interfere with Darko Milicic This time it was shot.

Therefore, facing Kevin Garnett's supplementary defense, Xu Lang didn't intend to slow down at all. He directly accelerated twice, and soon came to a step away from the penalty area.

After receiving the ball, he made an emergency stop and made a posture of throwing the ball. Xu Lang directly mobilized Kevin Garnett's defensive center of gravity and rushed over.

After seeing Kevin Garnett jumping over, Xu Lang made another 360-speed turn, dodged Kevin Garnett's defense, and planned to finish from Kevin Garnett's right side An underhand layup hit.

But obviously, as the best defensive player of the season, Kevin Garnett is not so easy to be broken.

I saw that Kevin Garnett immediately moved his long arms from the top of his head to the sides of his body after seeing Xu Lang coming with a 360-degree Thomas full spin, and slapped Xu Lang on the hand that he was going to lower. The right hand of the basket is above the basketball.

However, this time Xu Lang's low-handed layup was still a fake move.

After seeing the big hand slapped by Kevin Garnett, Xu Lang paused, put the basketball back into his arms, and directly stepped up and down to meet Kevin Garnett's long arm, completing an irregular kick xjb throws his hand.

Although the basketball thrown by Xu Lang xjb did not fall into the basket, the whistle from the bottom line referee was not blown unexpectedly.

Then, Kevin Garnett received his fourth foul of the game, which also allowed Xu Lang to stand on the free throw line for the third time in the game.

With a free throw percentage of more than 90%, Xu Lang made these two free throws steadily.

And this attack was just the beginning, when Xu Lang started to counterattack in singles with the ball.

The Celtics' defensive threat can't just be a defensive threat.

Just like the ball just now, because the Celtics still thought that Xu Lang would not continue his singles to the end, so they couldn't flank Xu Lang in time, which caused Kevin Garnett to pay for a foul.

Therefore, after Xu Lang's first offense in the fourth quarter, Rivers immediately called a timeout and rearranged his defensive tactics.

After that, Xu Lang never scored in a sports game within the three-second zone again.

Paul Pierce's tough physical confrontation and unscrupulous defensive tricks.

It made it difficult for Xu Lang to get a good shot outside the three-second zone.

And as long as Xu Lang enters the three-second zone, he will immediately face at least two defensive encirclement and interference from the Celtics.

This led to either Xu Lang's further breakthrough into the penalty area, causing a foul by the Celtics, or contributing a block to the Celtics' inside players.

Or it is against the high-intensity defensive interference of the Celtics to complete a difficult mid-range shot!
Therefore, even though the fourth quarter lasted almost the entire quarter, Xu Lang did not score a single sports game within the three-second zone.

However, Mark Blunt, who caused only two fouls in the first three quarters, had already committed five fouls at the end of the fourth quarter.
