Showdown, I'm the God of Basketball

Chapter 209 Before the playoffs

In the end, Hamblen, who was notified to be promoted to the head coach of the Lakers, was a little nervous to mobilize before the game.

"The grievances between the Celtics and us needless to say!
At present, they are also the strong opponents ranked third in the Eastern Conference. We must teach them a lesson in this game! "

All the players in the team were not very interested in hearing this, and most of them did not agree with Hamblen.

Except for Vujacic and Rush who want to fight for playing time.

"Well said! Applause!"

Kobe rolled his lips, and finally stood up to show his leadership qualities.

Frankly speaking, they must cheer up in this game and win their first victory after the All-Star Game.

After all, it's the end of February, and the regular season is just over a month away.

Now it's time to sprint!

Hamblen clapped at the side, and said with a silly smile that he meant the same thing.

North Shore Gardens is packed!

The Celtics this season are also the strongest team in the East apart from the Heat and Pistons!

Paul Pierce, Ricky Davis, Gary Payton, Al Jefferson
Zhao Hao couldn't help but look at Paul Pierce more, the braggart doesn't brag now.

At this time, Pierce is still a little immature, but the leadership temperament on the field has already emerged.

As expected of a man who can resist 11 knives, he still has courage.

Not to mention, the thickness of the Celtics lineup this season is really good, and the depth of the bench is definitely among the top in the league.

Otherwise, this season, they will not play a terrifying bench lineup averaging 45 points per game!
You must know that the Celtics averaged only 101 points per game this season.

In other words, the substitute can score nearly half of the team's points!

This is amazing.

But of course Zhao Hao also knows the reason why the Celtics have such a strong bench lineup, isn't it because of Ricky Davis and Al Jefferson.

That's right, Ricky Davis who dared to bully James!

"Ricky Davis averaged 16 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists per game this season, and is currently the favorite to win the sixth man of the season."

In the pre-match analysis, Kenny Smith directly talked about this explosive point.

As an old partner, groom Albert naturally got to his point, and said with a smile.

"However, Ricky Davis is only the third best sixth man at the moment, and Zhao Hao, with an average of 17 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game, is already at the top of the list in the latest ranking!"

Hearing this news, Zhao Hao was stunned.

Since when did I become the No. 3 best sixth man? Didn’t I hover around No.[-] before?

However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhao Hao also felt relieved.

After all, when Kobe was injured, he led the Lakers to a [-]% winning percentage, and the data was also rising.

In addition, the competition for the best sixth man is not so fierce.

If Zhao Hao remembered correctly, the best sixth man this season should have been Ben Gordon of the Bulls.

But his statistics are only 15 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2 assists per game.

Although the data is a little worse than Ricky Davis, but he has fewer shots and his shooting rate is much higher.

In terms of high-level efficiency and defensive contribution, Ben Gordon is also slightly better than Ricky Davis, who has a very unscrupulous attitude.

However, Zhao Hao really wants to say, whether it is you Ricky Davis or Ben Gordon, my current statistics are definitely better than yours.

Whether it is regular data or advanced data.

After all, the time he played in every game was basically with Corvo.
Can the efficiency go up?
"That is to say, if I continue to play in this situation, I should have great hopes of winning the best sixth man award.

With the championship of the three-point shooting contest, I have two awards!
If I can get one more award, then I can get a mysterious card draw, which is a good thing that can draw a golden badge! "

Thinking of this, Zhao Hao couldn't help but sigh slightly.

He has been paying attention to the ranking of the best rookie, even though he has played such a good number, his ranking is still third.

There is no way, the crooked nuts in the United States don't know what to think, they always think that the double pair is very powerful.

Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't squeeze out the two great gods Okafor and Howard in front of him.

At this time, the big screen on the scene also gave the starting list of the two teams.

Lakers: Atkins, Kobe, Butler, Odom, Mihm.

Celtics: Point guard Gary Payton, shooting guard Yeri Vershko, small forward Paul Pierce, power forward Mark Blunt, center Riv LaFrentz.

Game start.

On the Celtics' side is a twin-tower lineup inside.

Mark Blunt and Franz are both over 211cm tall, and they are extremely strong.

But the offensive ability of the two is not particularly strong, but the ability to defend and protect the frame is good.

Zhao Hao, who was on the bench, really wanted to say, why do these teams always think that the Lakers seem to be afraid of the tall insiders.

The Lakers are indeed afraid of the inside, but they are only afraid of players with top offensive ability inside.

You Celtics are two defensive pioneers, they are really worthy.

After all, Kobe has a half-shot, and Butler and Odom's shooting ability is also not bad.

So knowing that your Celtics have such two tall guys, the Lakers would be so stupid to go inside to play?
Swish!
Kobe hit a mid-range shot.

When it was the Celtics' turn to attack, Pierce did not show off his spiral footwork and singles, and was directly transferred to the team's inside line.

It seems that this was arranged before the game!
Rive LaFrentz post-ups a meme.

A library!
Two libraries!

River LaFrentz pushed out a step of space, and quickly turned around with a small hook.

Duang!

This hand job is a bit worse.

Kobe immediately launched a counterattack and passed the hit to Butler who followed up.

One-handed hack!

Hamblen on the coach's bench felt comfortable, and proudly stood up and appeared in the center of the court.

Just stare at the live camera like that.

See, I'm the head coach of the Lakers now, and the high-stakes attack just now was played under my leadership.

Turn your head.

Pierce is about to stand up!

Directly facing Butler, he showed a retreat and increased by two points!

Go in!

Take a step back!

Before Pengcideng was born, Pierce was the best player in the NBA to use this trick.

The ball also completely stopped the bleeding for the Celtics.

The Lakers still play conventionally.

Kobe also lost his enthusiasm for playing the Cavaliers in the last game. After scoring the first goal, he began to play for Butler and Odom.

And the Celtics couldn't keep up with the Lakers because of the twin towers, and the defensive end was blown up.

On the contrary, their inside line did not achieve some results on the offensive end.

Doc Rivers, the still immature Celtics head coach, is not happy.

Al Jefferson and Ricky Davis were directly replaced.

The two non-offensive centers were replaced.
