Chapter 849 makes you hairy, makes you sick, makes you tremble, makes you marvel
The 76ers suddenly started with Weixia at the fourth position, and the Celtics remained unchanged.

They started the first game of the season with Isaiah Thomas, Avery Bradley, Jae Crowder, Amir Johnson and Embiid.

This is different from the Celtics team that made the playoffs last season.

Last season, the Celtics' current coach, Brad Stevens, changed a dozen starting lineups, using a lineup with little talent, allowing the Celtics to return to the playoffs after only one season of reconstruction.

Embiid, who is now regarded as the hope of future team revival, is back. In order for the team to have a better chemical reaction, the starting lineup needs to be fixed.The Celtics also rely on their youthful vigor and are currently ranked fifth in the Eastern Conference.

At the opening jump ball, Embiid was lazy and didn't mean to take off.

Cousins ​​gave the ball to Rondo with all his might.

Rondo heard about Cousins ​​and Embiid even if he didn't watch the chat group, so he deliberately helped Cousins ​​play the ball at the beginning.

If he didn't have this plan, even if you add up the IQs of all the players on the Celtics field, you can't guess where his ball is going.

But if he insists on making the ball for Cousins, they will be easy to guess.

Embiid deliberately didn't get stuck in a strong position, giving Cousins ​​a chance to get the ball.It seems that Cousins ​​has a good timing to catch the ball, but the Celtics deliberately let it go.

Rondo didn't see the problem, passed the ball, and Crowder suddenly appeared and destroyed the ball.

In an instant, Thomas picked up the ball and launched a ferocious counterattack.

Although Embiid is stout, he has a fast break but has a sharp speed. Cousins ​​​​is not as good as him.

Embiid went straight to the middle, and Thomas deliberately slowed himself down, waiting for him to catch up and hit the ball.

Embiid jumped straight up, about to dunk—the Fuguo Center cheered everywhere, and in an instant, on the right side of Embiid's body, Wesha's hands covered his dunk space, and immediately intercepted his ball with ferocious force.

"Joel Embiid is taller than the hoop when he jumps in the air and lifts the ball up!"

"And Wish seems to block his fast break dunk on top of that!"

"Unbelievable, his athleticism seems to be still at its peak!"

Although Embiid's dunk was intercepted by Weisha, the Celtics still had many people close to the frontcourt. They picked up the ball and scored a second offense on the spot.

2 is better than 0
There is no more morale-boosting counterattack than a slam dunk. Embiid was stopped by Wecha in that way, and the Celtics team was not happy.

"The seven-foot center was blocked by me, an old man in his thirties, are you ashamed?" Wei Xia asked melodiously.

Embiid argued: "You are a coincidence!"

"Then you are really a pitiful unlucky guy." Wei Xia is a person who will never let go as long as he holds the handle.

Embiid didn't expect him to suffer from Wei Xia's hands so quickly.

No, he didn't expect that the opponent would dare to rush out to stop his dunk.

What era is this?Is this the era when Dwyane Wade deliberately stood inside and waited for the opponent to jump directly to block the shot when he was young?No, that iron-blooded era is long gone.

These days, it's not life and death, and no one will stop the center from dunking like that.

Weixia humiliated Embiid on the defensive end. On the offensive end, Cousins ​​was in the low post and the shooter was stretched. Now, no one can stop him from taking the ball.

Rondo passes the ball.

Cousins ​​didn't use technique at all, but just used his brute force and weight to fight and rely.

Embiid looks as strong as a bull, but in fact, the most important thing in defense against backs is not his body, but whether he can stabilize his body and stand in position.

To put it bluntly, it is whether the strength of the lower body is enough.

Cousins' backs are almost extinct. In order to keep up with the small ball, few insiders will practice low post, so few insiders will develop a strong bottom line. What's more, Embiid has just recovered from a serious lower body injury. He has time to practice his upper body, but he can't practice his lower body.

Cousins' back-beating was like a strong medicine, which made him retreat steadily.

Embiid couldn't hold his position and let Cousins ​​push away.

Cousins ​​was about to dunk, Embiid's hand shot out reflexively, and was called a foul, but it did not interfere with Cousins' dunk.

BANG!

With a deafening sound, Cousins ​​dunked in front of him and scored.

"Idiot, this is the gap between the keyboard man and the powerful!" Cousins ​​showed off the exaggerated muscles on his arms fiercely, "You are a fucking idiot, you can't guard me!"

The referee immediately issued a whistle, warning Cousins ​​to say less of those useless things.

Embiid is a person who wants to face and has a strong dignity. He was so humiliated on both offense and defense, and his emotions were a little out of control.

He wants to get the ball and it's not easy.

Cousins ​​circled the front defense, and Wei Xia and Hayward interfered with the passing line every chance they had.

The Celtics would love to find Embiid, but if they can't find it, it doesn't matter.

Thomas itself is a superior offensive starting point, except for his short stature, other skills are readily available.

The impatient Embiid can't get the ball empty-handed. He needs to go up to the high position to create chaos in the pick-and-roll.

Thomas' breakthrough was successful, but Weixia's defense and rotation were wandering around the court like a ghost.

No one knows where he will appear, and no one knows what his defensive logic is.

The Celtics only know that Wei Xia may appear in any position.

As long as he appears, he will definitely pose a fatal threat to the possession of the ball.

Thomas made a breakthrough, but there was a dark cloud looking up. He couldn't see the basket and could only pass the ball.

A hand comes out from an unexpected position and nearly steals the ball.

"Snapped!"

The ball is out of bounds.

The Celtic players took a closer look, and it really was Wei Xia.

The danger of this man, his defensive anticipation and tactical reading, are all terrible.

Vitality, athletic ability, stamina and patience, and the so-called defensive sense, it is because of these that he can be selected as DPOY for two consecutive years in a team that is not a strong defensive team in general with a body of 195 cm.

The Celtics re-serve.

As soon as the sideline kick was taken, although they solved the worldwide problem, how did they attack?Stevens' tactics have a strong college style, complicated and meticulous, and the existing time is definitely not enough.

Embiid went to the top of the arc to make a pick-and-roll.

Bradley with the ball passed him, but Embiid's body did not interfere with Roberson at all.

Bradley was entangled and could only pass the ball back.

Embiid stood outside the three-point line, and Cousins ​​gave him up.

He opened his hand to shoot a three-pointer.

It seems that he has accepted the unspoken rule that contemporary big men must master a long-range shot.

It's a pity that he, who has been out of battle for a long time, has difficulty grasping the accuracy of the three-pointer.

"boom!"

Wei Xia jumped out from the side and grabbed the defensive rebound. Just as he was about to make a quick move, Embiid was already preparing for a tactical foul in front of him.

He already has a foul and the game has just begun. If he commits a second foul now, the Celtics may replace him.

At that time, Wei Xia can naturally laugh at him, but preventing the opponent from achieving any of his goals is the highest level of ridicule.

Wei Xia dribbled the ball to an emergency stop one meter in front of Embiid. The right hand of the dribble suddenly pushed the ball forward. The speed was too fast. The ball flew from a very low level to Embiid's crotch and hit the ground.

The ball was divided, and the center of Fuguo became agitated.

Weixia's Magic Move made the fans at the scene very excited, and Embiid's brain was blank.

The same counterattack, the same fast play, Cousins ​​​​chased Weixia to the frontcourt, can anyone in the Celtics fly out to cover his cap?
No, none at all.

Wesha threw the ball into Cousins' palm.

Cousins ​​jumped up and dunked with both hands.

5 is better than 2
"If you want to foul me next time, I might let you get it right away, because I really want to know how a center who averaged less than 28 minutes per game left the field with six fouls."

Wei Xia said this sentence completely, and seeing Embiid's face was harder than the hardest iron ball Kobe had ever hit in his life, he hummed and laughed.

Next, Embiid helped himself get back on the field with anger.

He stood at the free throw line and scored a jumper.

"Seven-foot tall man, except for fast dunks and shots away from the paint area, can he be so soft?"

Wei Xia didn't say this, he wasn't that mean.

The complaint from Rondo was just accidentally heard by Embiid-was it really careless?

After all, he is Cousins' senior brother. Although he usually regards Cousins ​​as a fool, some people have a kind of possessiveness that can be bullied by themselves but not by others.

Except for the elegant and easy-going Hayward and the dumb-mouthed Robertson, three of the 76ers' starting five have already hurt Embiid physically and mentally.

Only 2 minutes into the game, Embiid lost the self-confidence of those who despised the world before.

Wei Xia felt that such a blow was not enough.

He held the ball from the outside and went left to get into the formation. Amir Johnson couldn't keep up with him at all.

Wei Xia can choose an open jumper but has to go left and enter the paint to find Embiid's trouble;

He clearly can complete the offense in an easier way but has to challenge Embiid's air defense ability.

His offensive choices virtually treated Embiid's defense as air.

Even if it wasn't the air, it was still a direction mark to guide his attack. In short, he didn't regard the opponent's block as a dangerous thing.

What are you kidding?Embiid is a seven-foot center with a 230-level wingspan and first-class running and jumping ability. For such a person, his ability to protect the basket should not be underestimated anyway.

Then something terrible happened.

Wei Xia held the ball flat with his left hand and threw the ball high.

The flying height of the ball surpassed Embiid's high touch point. It rolled to the airspace above the backboard with a scalp-numbing soft melody, then circled an arc and landed slowly towards the center of the basket.

"Shh!"

Make you shudder, make you sick, make you shudder, make you marvel.

"This is Wish's Magic Move!"
