Son of God in the Madness of Basketball

Chapter 1114: Gambling substitutions, transformation brought by the Wolf King

Yes, Garnett has been approved to play before this game. Although his knee injury has not healed, he has improved greatly. In a game before this game, Garnett Has been allowed to play.

However, Rivers still hesitated. He did not let Garnett come back early. Although he brought Garnett to Los Angeles before this game, he really did not think about whether Garnett should play.

The interview before the game is really not completely tactical, Rivers said that most of the reason is because he really did not think about whether to play Garnett.

Because knee injury is really too complicated. For a 32-year-old veteran, there is no such thing as a knee injury. It is at best improved. It is more than ten before Garnett. He has been a well-known iron man in the league during his career in 2001, and has suffered few injuries, but this is more troublesome, because a person like Garnett who is not easily injured is basically disastrous once he is injured.

Countless times of history have proved that once a veteran is hit by a major injury or illness, even if he can pay later, the state is definitely a cliff-like decline, and the possibility of being injured again increases exponentially. Before the injury, the league was a super giant, but after the injury, it will definitely fall into a role player. Grant Hill is an example.

Seriously, Hill is the perfect situation for a comeback, and how many amazing superstars have been destroyed by injuries.

So Rivers was hesitant. Of course he understood the importance of Garnett to the team. Last season, the reason why they reached the finals, Garnett accounted for half of the credit. Although the finals MVP is Pierce, but Garnett Special talent is the core of the Green Army.

On the defensive end, the Celtics can play the iron bucket defense. Garnett is the core of the defense. Through the ubiquitous defense, the opponent's offense is fragmented; while the offensive end is not ideal. The team did not play. The system, Rondo is not yet mature, all rely on the Big Three singles, and the giants lack the ability to score melons and vegetables. The Eastern series Ray Allen experienced a period of downturn, the team attacked obstacles, all rely on KG Carry the team away.

This season, the offensive has improved, Rondo has grown into a first-class point guard, Rondo + Garnett pick-and-roll for the offense + Ray Allen off-ball running position + Pierce flanking pinned out of the system, the Big Three take turns singles Still indispensable, but the pressure of the Big Three's offense is much less.

And they are still strong on the defensive end. They still maintain the level of defense in the 2008 season. KG is still the core of the defense. It is the best period for them to impact the championship. It is because Kevin Garnett that before KG was injured in the 2009 season. The Celtics became the strongest stage of the Big Three, and they have been keeping up with the Lakers.

However, Garnett was injured ...

In these injured games, the Greens attacked an inside fulcrum of 16 + 9 on the offensive end, while the defensive end was catastrophic. The team lacked a stable inside singles point, lacking high and low positions and a wall of pick-and-roll. ; Pierce and Ray Allen lack the ability to score melons and vegetables, the team still has to rely on last season's defense to grind opponents, but the defensive core is missing, the defensive iron barrel array that the Celtics are famous for is missing the key A ring.

So their record fluctuated, and they were overtaken by the Cavaliers and slipped to second place in the east.

Therefore, Rivers was afraid that Garnett would be injured again, so he was not sure whether Garnett would play before the game.

But now, Rivers still decided to let the Wolf King play, because this game is too critical, not to say that he is the Christmas war that the United States is concerned about, just to say that this is a double battle with the Lakers, if this is the Lakers The score swept and the blow to the Celtics was too great.

Moreover, the horror of the Lakers is beyond everyone's expectations. The Lakers in good condition are really too strong. They easily tore up the defense of the Green Army and let them suffer on the defensive end. It will be beaten, which means that there is no chance.

Bet it!

"Oh, we saw Garnett who said he would not play before the game took off his training uniform. Rivers also made a substitution gesture. Garnett officially returned after half a month!" Yang Jian Seeing this scene said.

Garnett replaced Davis, the little baby who showed little performance in the first quarter, and officially announced his comeback!

As soon as Garnett appeared on the court, he encouraged the team in his own way. He gave each teammate a high-five and thumped his chest to roar twice.

At this time, the commentator asked tonight's guest magician Johnson: "I would like to ask the magician, Garnett came on the bench. Do you think the Celtics bench will change the situation on the court?"

"I think the possibility is very small, the iron hit is contagious. When they retrieved the hit rate, it is estimated that the game is over, and Garnett's own offensive ability has been reduced, and he has just recovered from injury. It's a question mark. "The Magician definitely supports the Lakers.

But when Garnett came on the court, the Green Army's momentum was indeed more sufficient. Garnett is indeed the guy who can bring qualitative change ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ The first attack, with Garnett, Rondo also appears more Calmly, the Green Army returned to the familiar slow rhythm, only 14 seconds to start the attack, and Garnett's fulcrum also liberated the other two giants. Pierce finally seized the opportunity to catch the ball and hit the first goal of the game. .

Although Ji Feng then faced Pierce's defense, it was easy to change into the inside and a successful shot!

But at least the Celtics can also make up for the score, Garnett on the line to respond, pick-and-roll hands to hand, Rondo catches the ball and breaks the ball, Ray Allen hits a 3-pointer.

"YES!" Rivers waved heavily off the court, and his gambling seemed to be working.

In the last two minutes of the first quarter, the Greens did not allow the score to be further pulled away, but instead led by Garnett to reduce the difference to 12 points. At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led 37-25.

In the second quarter, the Lakers withdrew Kobe Gasol and the Green Army Garnett was still on the field. Rivers seemed to have tasted the sweetness. He wanted to continue to let Garnett lead the team's offense, and he also wanted to use him to limit the Lakers. Offensive.

This has worked. It was not obvious when defending Gasol, but when it was not Radmanovic, Garnett played a big role. He used his personal ability to make a take in the first round. To the first two points since the comeback.

On the offensive end, he also abolished the point of Radmanovic, the latter ’s original best middle distance ca n’t be used under Garnett ’s top defense, the Lakers can only rely on Ji Feng ’s breakthrough and shooting Score.

And Garnett also clearly made arrangements for Ji Feng. Once Ji Feng breaks through, Garnett will inevitably raise the defense.

So during this off time on the bench, the Celtics won surprisingly!

45-37, the Lakers are only 8 points ahead!
