Forward to the basket

After a summer of stealing people, every move of the Celtics is now attracting attention. Everyone wants to know whether Boston, which has taken away two All-Star big fish, is now in place.

The team does not simply rely on the accumulation of stars to achieve success. If it is that simple, it is estimated that there are not one or two teams that are willing to take the risk of contributing to the luxury tax. The problem that the team and the head coach have to consider, and Boston is facing such a problem.

Rivers is not a famous coach, he is not from a professional background, nor is he a famous retired player.

When playing, he can be regarded as a second-tier star at most. At the beginning of his coaching career, he can be the best coach.

It doesn't seem like a big deal, but it's not without reason that Boston picked him.

At least last season, this guy has proved that he can control the team and lead this group of guys to achieve good results. Although some people slander him for just getting the credit of the players, but the results are there, you can't accept it.

But being able to train rookies like Chen Feng or Rondo well doesn't necessarily mean that you can command those big-name stars.

Especially the kind of big names who are already a little crazy for the desire for honor. After all, Rivers' reputation is not the kind that can hold the field, let alone his coaching experience in the playoffs is a little weak.

Even though last season's playoffs and regular season were good, but now that the team has replaced at least half of the players, whether Rivers still has that kind of control is unknown, and it is also one of the biggest hidden dangers.

In fact, many people thought that when the Celtics made big moves, they should change to a more experienced coach to lead these big names. Some people even suggested that Auerbach could actually return to power.

Or champion coaches like Pat Riley and Phil Jackson. These people seem to be more reliable than Rivers. After all, the team has gathered a group of good players with great difficulty, and no one wants to see them lose in the end. .

But this kind of voice has only been yelling for a few days. The Celtics management has released a very clear signal to the outside world. Rivers will definitely not move. This guy is still the head coach of the Celtics in the new season. .

However, there are still people who can smell the murderous intent hidden behind this kind of trust. If the lineup that Angie worked so hard to get can't achieve good results, then Rivers will be fired and resigned in minutes.

The nba has always only recognized results but not people. If you can win the championship, it doesn't matter if you are a rookie, but if you can't handle it, even old Nelson will be fired by the team at any time. That's merciless.

It is said that there is a chance for one season to prove himself, but Rivers also knows that the first month of the new season is the assessment line. Once he misses, what awaits him will be eternal, and it will be [-] levels of hell.

So after the training camp started, this guy almost put all his energy on polishing the team.

Strive to do the most subtle things, from the tactical framework to the display space of personal abilities, this guy considers every detail, that kind of tireless energy, just like a rookie who has just entered the coaching business and urgently needs to prove his ability, although He didn't say it, but anyone could see the pressure on him.

Many people also plan to watch the performance of the Celtics in the preseason, so as to estimate how terrifying the explosive power of these guys is. There are people who are not optimistic about them, but those who are secretly wary of them are actually more many.

After all, Garnett, Ray Allen, Rondo, Pierce, Chen Feng, how scary this lineup looks.

And there was a group of old guys squatting on the sidelines to come up with ideas. If they say that the Celtics have no fighting power now, I am afraid that others will not believe it. The only difference may be how long it will take for these guys to adjust.

The other thing is whether these people can adapt to Boston's traditions and Rivers' tactics. Many people are looking forward to their civil strife, but more people are still waiting and watching, waiting to see the outbreak of the Celtics' new combination.

I have to say, regardless of whether they came or left, the evaluation of Boston is very pertinent.

Just like West and Jefferson who left, they didn't say much, and they generously wished their old club a good result in the new season. Al Jefferson is kind and honest anyway. people.

As for those like Ratliff and Szczerbiak who have little residual value to extract, although they complain about leaving Boston, they also know that compared with those guys who joined, they are nothing.

Therefore, even if you are kicked out, there is nothing to say. If you can't beat yourself well, can you still rely on others?

For those new faces, in addition to Garnett and Ray Allen being surrounded by reporters in Boston, people like Posey, Hardaway, and Cassel have also become the targets of Celtics fans. .

There is no doubt that this is a star-studded lineup, but most people are still in the wait-and-see stage for its actual combat effect. However, Rivers also has a way to let those people see the changes in the Celtics.

"This is an old opponent, a competitor in the same district as us. If possible, even in the preseason, I hope to step on the opponent to win. After all, this is an indescribable psychological advantage."

The skeptical eyes of the outside world will not delay Rivers in honing his lineup, as well as the cooperation between the players.

But for things that can obliterate those questioning eyes, Rivers is still very happy to do it, such as ravaging the Toronto Raptors in the same division as him in the preseason, which is definitely beneficial to the body and mind.

In the face of Rivers's old and kind request, none of the bandits in Boston expressed any objection.

Well, this is a group of animals. In fact, compared with them, Rivers is actually quite soft-hearted, because those guys are gearing up, and Rivers really took care of each other before the game, and did not make a full lineup.

Perkins, Garnett, Pierce, Ray Allen and Rondo, this is a combination of old and new.

Needless to say, Rondo's point guard, Pierce and Ray Allen, two guys who can play inside and outside, immediately attracted a lot of exclamation. This large-scale firepower network at medium and long distances is basically completed. .

And there is Garnett on the inside, and Perkins who is like a coolie next to him. This lineup is not perfect, but its practicality is definitely not bad. Facts have also proved that Rivers' choice is really right.

Although the Raptors did not trade as crazy as the Celtics during the transfer period, they have a team that made it to the playoffs last season. The lineup has also tended to be stable, and the core state of the main force is also in the golden period.

Although they were severely suppressed by the Celtics last season, Chris Bosh said fiercely before the start of the new season that they don't want to be swept out by anyone again!I look forward to going further in the playoffs.

As a result, the Celtics ran into the Celtics again in the preseason, and these guys also wanted to get rid of the shame of being swept by 8:0 last season. Uh, in fact, counting the preseason last season, it seems that they should It's 9:0.

However, it can be seen that the Raptors are really unwilling to be suppressed by the Celtics, an opponent in the same district, so their visit this time can be regarded as the main force, and there are three main cores in the starting lineup.

tj Ford, Chris Bosh, plus Nesterovic, in addition to these three, Calderon and the newcomer Kapono, all important scoring points inside and outside, this time It's all gathered.

The Raptors are also holding a test of the player's running-in degree, and then adding revenge.

Uh, in fact, these guys just saw that the Celtics' lineup has just been completed, and they must be in the running-in period. They put together their own main lineup and give the opponent a blow, which can be regarded as saving face.

As a result, the Raptors obviously underestimated the kind of dirty heart that seemingly loyal fat guy Rivers has. Who would have thought that this guy didn't even intend to make a mess of his competitors in the same district in the preseason!

Therefore, the Toronto Raptors were yin again this time. Don't look at them having two new faces, but Garnett and Ray Allen are old fritters who have been fighting in the NBA for many years. Let them play, that is Because it is stable enough!

And the Celtics' offensive style has always been to disrupt all your plans with a stormy impact.

This time was no exception. They were originally at home, and the Raptors were still getting used to it, but what greeted them was a fierce charge, especially Garnett's left and right inside. .

Off the court, Chen Feng really felt sad for the Raptors players. He turned his head and looked at the sitting beside him, with no expression on his face, but it was obviously Rivers holding back a smirk. He really felt that the fat man was quite dark.

"Hey, look at our boss, this old and kind guy, those Toronto fans are about to cry."

Uh, although Chen Feng didn't make much noise when he spoke just now, since Rivers was not far away, how could he not hear him, but as the head coach, he didn't say anything at all.

Yin is a competitor in the same district, there is nothing unkind about this, er, but looking at the score of 27:12 just after a quarter, this... is indeed... a little cruel... …

The joint performance of Chen Feng and Garnett did not come out, but the Celtics bombed the Raptors repeatedly under the command of Rivers. Although the Toronto people were trying to resist, it seemed that the move was actually futile.

New, old, all Celtics players have made appearances in this game, especially those newly joined, and also used their own methods to show their position in the team and their contributions .

Garnett scored 25 points, Ray Allen scored 23 points, Pierce scored 23 points, Rondo 13 assists, Chen Feng scored 19 points and 12 rebounds. Times blocks!

And you can clearly see that these guys didn't try their best, and they didn't even plan to fight their opponents with their lives. Even so, they could blow the Raptors to nothing, almost a big defeat.

No one thought that the first unlucky ghost would die so miserably, 109:89, it was a completely one-sided massacre.

Not many people can see how hard the Celtics are, but the ferocious momentum of these guys is already reminding their opponents that they are coming, and they are more ruthless than last season...
