My template is really center

Chapter 360 is from Chris Webber's last solo dance!

Sure enough, Chris Webber, who almost didn't even have the strength of a championship-level team's substitute main player, could only be abused by him with one hand when defending Marc Gasol one-on-one.

After all, although Mike Blount is not young anymore, he still maintains the overall strength of the b-level, and his defense is still at the peak level of the b-level!
So, after Marc Gasol singled Chris Webber three times in a row and scored twice, Rivers had to call the Celtics' third timeout of the second quarter.

Obviously, Chris Webber's presence did not solve the Celtics' defensive problems.

At the same time, everyone also re-acquainted with Marc Gasol, a rookie in the league who has been criticized and belittled for more than a month!
It's just that although Chris Webber doesn't seem to be able to solve the Celtics' defensive problems, Rivers has no other players to use!
Therefore, after returning from this timeout, Chris Webber continued to stay on the court, but the Celtics made another change in defensive style.

The Celtics attacked, Allen Iverson held the ball outside, and after completing the pick-and-roll with Kevin Garnett, Allen Iverson quickly rushed to the free throw line.

Then, Allen Iverson saw Marc Gasol retract the inside line, ready to pinch him for a moment.

With a direct ground pass, the ball was handed over to Chris Webber, who was one step away from the three-second zone at a 45-degree angle on the left.

After Chris Webber got the basketball, facing Marc Gasol who was coming to defend him, he paused calmly, then directly shook off Marc Gasol's supplementary defense, and then made a steady 45 Degree angled pads for throwing hand hitting board hits.

One thing has to be admitted, although Chris Webber's role and influence on the defensive end are definitely not as good as Mark Blunt's.

But on the offensive end, Chris Webber's precise mid-range shooting and the ability to pass and catch the ball that has not been lost allow him to play a greater role in the Celtics' offensive system.

It's just that everyone knows very well that the Celtics' biggest problem with this lineup is defense.

Especially after the Eagles reactivated Marc Gasol and completed the re-operation of the entire team's tactical system, Chris Webber's defensive weakness was firmly grasped by the Eagles.

So when the Celtics finished their offense and turned to defense, everyone was waiting for Rivers to give a defensive answer after calling a timeout!
The Eagles attacked, Xu Lang dribbled the ball beyond the three-point line at the top of the arc, after commanding his teammates to open up the space.

Continues with a ground-up pass to Marc Gasol with Chris Webber stuck on his back.

An important principle of the playoffs is to keep playing until an efficient offensive point is not blocked!

Only this time, when Marc Gasol was about to catch the ball and start to attack, Chris Webber suddenly stepped forward and staggered Marc Gasol directly.

Fortunately, Marc Gasol, as a heavy center forward weighing more than 120kg, has a stable chassis.

After quickly adjusting his center of gravity, Marc Gasol withstood Chris Webber's sudden attack and received Xu Lang's pass.

It's just that after being pushed by Chris Webber, Marc Gasol couldn't directly catch the ball and started to attack. Instead, he needed to readjust his offensive position and offensive rhythm!

And just when Marc Gasol received the ball, he was about to lean on Chris Webber and slowly find his own offensive rhythm.

Chris Webb made another move!

I saw that when Marc Gasol dribbled the ball and was about to test the offense, Chris Webber suddenly opened a distance from Marc Gasol, then took a step forward, and hit Marc Gasol again a bit.

And because Chris Webber's backward and forward movements this time are relatively small, the rhythm just got stuck at the time of Marc Gasol's forceful impact, and he was in the blind spot of the referee's vision.

As a result, the whole process was not like Chris Webber suddenly backed up and hit hard, but more like Marc Gasol himself hit hard, failed to hit Chris Webb and was pushed back, and then appeared Disordered gait.

After disrupting Marc Gasol's offensive rhythm and dribbling rhythm again, Chris Webber still did not stop his defensive actions.

I saw that after Chris Webber hit Marc Gasol, he immediately stuck to Marc Gasol and began to exert a small amount of force through his elbows, giving Marc Gasol uninterrupted, high-frequency Physical confrontation prevents Marc Gasol from regaining his offensive rhythm and dribbling rhythm.

If it was before Marc Gasol's center of gravity was stable, it would be impossible for Chris Webber's small confrontation to affect Marc Gasol's offense.

But now, after the previous series of defensive confrontations, Marc Gasol, who was already in an unstable state of gravity, began to feel a little bit unsteady with the basketball in his hands!

Then, after being continuously interrupted from the offensive rhythm, Marc Gasol finally had no choice but to rejoin the ball with his hands and pass the basketball out before the back body arrived five seconds later.

"A good defense, everyone's image of Chris is a talented offensive power forward.

But you must know that Chris's performance on the defensive end is not weak at all, and he has also achieved data close to two blocks and two steals in a single season. "

"It can be said that at the peak, Chris was a super power forward whose offense was better than Duncan's and defense was not weaker than the peak Kevin Garnett!"

Because Chris Webber defended Marc Gasol's post-up single this time, Marc Gasol passed the ball to the outside.

The Eagles' attack time has only the last six seconds left!
This made Szczerbiak, who received the ball, finally have no time to hand the ball back to the guarded Xu Lang, and reorganized the attack!
In the end, seeing that the attack time was about to run out, Szczerbiak could only rely on Darko Milicic for a simple single block, and then stood half a step outside the three-point line against the interference and completed the A three-point shot!
"when!"

Without any surprises, Szczerbiak made a reluctant and hasty three-pointer and failed to make a hit.

But that wasn't the end, and it seemed the Celtics' counterattack had only just begun when Chris Webber got Marc Gasol's position and took this defensive rebound.

Chris Webber, who received the rebound, looked at all directions and listened to all directions. After seeing Paul Pierce taking the lead, he had rushed to the Eagles' half.

Directly, a precisely-guided four-point long pass across the court handed the basketball to Paul Pierce, who moved within the three-point line of the Eagles' half court, with an advance of one body.

Catch the ball, take two big strides, take off, dunk with both hands, the Celtics completed a fast, accurate and ruthless defensive counterattack in less than three seconds!
"Is it my illusion? Why do I feel that the Celtics' offense is like the Kings at their peak?"

And Chris Webber looked at Paul Pierce, who received his pass and hung the frame with both hands, and felt a little emotional.

"If I could have these teammates back then, wouldn't we have won the 7th tiebreaker, and then we would have established a new dynasty?"

Chris Webber thought about the big bowl of chicken soup that Rivers poured down for him just now, his eyes immediately became firm.

"I missed it once that year, and this time I must not miss it again!"

Seeing him playing vigorously on the field, it doesn't look like he is playing as a substitute player, but Chris Webber who is starting to work hard. While Rivers is slightly relieved in his heart, his frowning brows still remain. Did not relax.

Although, judging from the scene now, with Chris Webber's desperate efforts, it seems that the Celtics have made up for the loopholes of their own team on the defensive end, and also played a more efficient game performance on the offensive end.

But this is Chris Webber, who is almost 36 years old!

If you used yourself as a high-quality substitute to play Chris Webber before, you may have no problem playing high-intensity for 15-20 minutes in a game.

So how long Chris Webber, who is completely desperate now, can last, Rivers has no idea at all!

And once Chris Webber couldn't hold on, Rivers looked at the guys on the Celtics bench. I really don't think there is any player who can help the Celtics make up for the loopholes again. .

In fact, although Chris Webber lasted a lot longer than Rivers expected, until the last attack of the second quarter, Chris Webber still maintained a strong passion for the game.

But in fact, in the last few minutes of the second quarter, Chris Webber has begun to move more and more out of shape!
Although, relying on a burst of energy, Chris Webber became more and more comfortable on the defensive end, and the more he played, the more he dared to make defensive moves.

However, in less than 9 minutes of playing in the second quarter, Chris Webber has already received four fouls!
At the same time, because Chris Webber knows very well that with his current physical fitness, it is impossible for him to continue playing in this game after finishing this quarter.

So, in the last few minutes of the second quarter, Chris Webber began to play more and more unscrupulously, and his moves became more and more rough.

This made the defensive intensity and playing style of the two teams more and more intense.

At the same time, Rivers, who had been suffering from headaches on the sidelines and couldn't stand it, had a bright eye on what to do.

Before the game started, Rivers never thought about winning the game with defense.

After all, this game is played at the home court of the Eagles, and judging from the referee's judgment attitude in the past few games, it will basically not be too biased.

This is also the reason why Rivers wanted to make Mark Blount retreat at the beginning of the game.

But after observing most of the second quarter, Rivers suddenly discovered that the referee's penalty standards for this game seemed a little loose.

Several times, Chris Webber's defensive actions can be raised to the level of malicious fouls, but the referee only gave a common foul in the end.

For example, in the last defense of the second quarter, Chris Webber directly dragged Marc Gasol to the ground after grabbing a rebound, and the referee only gave an ordinary foul in the end.

This made Rivers immediately realize that the referee of this game came with a mission.

"Fuck, what does the referee mean? The defensive action just now is just an ordinary foul."

Marc Gasol, who was dragged to the ground, cursed and walked towards the home team locker room of the Eagles with his teammates!
To be honest, Marc Gasol, a rookie in the league, couldn't understand the penalty standards of several referees in the second quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, the referee's penalty for common fouls, although compared with the previous few games, the referee's penalty standard will be slightly looser, but it is not too loose.

Basically, all the penalties that should be punished have been fined, and those that should be blown have been whistled.

But for higher-level fouls and penalties, the referee's scale seems to start to expand infinitely.

An ordinary foul is an ordinary foul, and a foul that has risen to the point where it can be whistled as a malicious foul, the referee still only gives an ordinary foul.

This kind of penalty scale is like telling everyone, if you make a foul, you will give me a hard foul, don't be soft.

This directly led to the fact that the two teams, which had played relatively peacefully in the first quarter, became more angry after the second half of the second quarter.

Even Chris Webber's defensive action of dragging people to the ground abruptly is relatively mild defensive action.

Others like Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Allen Ferson have even begun to blatantly elbow their upper legs.

Ray Allen, the only one with relatively clean defensive moves, also has all kinds of high-intensity physical confrontation, and all kinds of normal little black hands emerge in endlessly.

Of course, the Eagles are not a vegetarian here, and the various actions are also getting bigger and bigger.

When Xu Lang made a breakthrough attack, he directly bumped Allen Iverson, who was trying to defend and cut the ball, and flew one meter away.

"This is the real NBA, and this is the most essential state and performance of basketball."

"What brother basketball, what hello, hello, hello everyone.

Standing on the playing field, everyone is a competitor, and everyone should play with the mentality that I will kill you. "

Seeing the fiery atmosphere of the two teams in the second half of the second quarter, Charles Barkley, an old-school player who doesn't mind watching the excitement, immediately roared excitedly.

In fact, from a certain point of view, the referee's penalty scale in this game does not seem to be much different from the NBA's penalty scale a dozen or 20 years ago.

Back then, the NBA was the NBA era where as long as it wasn't completely rushing towards deadly defensive moves like chokeholds, it would be considered a common foul. Otherwise, the Bad Boys Legion would not have flourished for a while, and even almost established the Pistons' dynasty!
As for Chris Webber's defensive action of entwining his arms and bringing him to the ground in order to prevent Marc Gasol from grabbing a rebound, it was a very normal defensive action in the NBA back then. up!
After all, when playing in the NBA back then, it was normal to have some moves and some confrontation!
It's just that such a change in the penalty scale is obviously not good for the Eagles.

As a team whose average age is only 25 or six years old, most of the players in the Eagles have not experienced the NBA era ten years ago.

On the contrary, the Celtics have most of the players, all from that era.

So with the second half of the second quarter, the intensity and game mode of the game slowly returned to the NBA more than ten years ago.

The Eagles began to be slowly reversed by the Celtics, just because the Celtics took a big enough lead in the first half of the second quarter.

So in the second half of the game, although the Eagles were constantly being approached by the Celtics, the score gap between the two teams was approaching.

But in the end at the end of halftime, the Eagles still retained a six-point lead.

But obviously, if the game state of the two teams in the second half of the game and the referee's penalty scale are the same as those in the second half of the second quarter.

The Hawks' six-point lead does not guarantee that they will win the tiebreaker steadily!

And when the game started in the second half, Mike Woodson felt even more difficult for the Eagles to play in the second half after seeing Mark Blount returning to the field with his elbows grinding.

At the beginning of the third quarter, the Celtics attacked first, and the Celtics gave the Eagles a heavy hammer as soon as they came up.

The Celtics attack, Allen Iverson holds the ball outside.

With the help of Kevin Garnett's pick-and-roll, Allen Iverson quickly slipped into the three seconds.

At the same time, Kevin Garnett, who finished the pick-and-roll, blocked Tony Allen's chasing action, and also moved to the three-second zone.

Allen Iverson's strong suddenness immediately attracted the defensive attention of the Eagles inside.

When Allen Iverson took two big strides to one step outside the penalty area, both Xu Lang and Darko Milicic subconsciously surrounded Allen Iverson's position.

However, facing Xu Lang and Darko Milicic's siege, Allen Iverson didn't panic at all.

After all, as a lone hero who has been one-on-one against one team throughout his career, Allen Iverson should not be encircled too many times!

Just saw that when Xu Lang and Darko Milicic were about to complete the encirclement of Allen Iverson.

Allen Iverson suddenly made a light crotch pass and handed the ball to Kevin Garnett, who followed up from the opposite side to within the three-second zone.

Kevin Garnett, who received the basketball, ignored Marc Gasol's supplementary defense, took off directly and completed a one-handed dunk across Marc Gasol.

It's just that Kevin Garnett, who completed the dunk, hadn't had time to celebrate when he landed. Immediately, he heard the bottom line referee blow his whistle, and signaled that Kevin Garnett's dunk was an offensive foul.
