The NBA's opening sling against Chris Paul

Chapter 119 Back to Back Schedule

赛后的新闻发布会上霍林斯教练肯定了自己的弟子的表现，尤其是获得27分11个助攻8个篮板的李明和砍下21分13个篮板的盖伊。

Although Gay failed to keep up with Anthony's pace in the last round, it could be seen that Hollins was very satisfied with Gay's performance tonight. This was just a regular season.

As long as he can concentrate like this every night in the future, then the mentor and apprentice will not have the problems like those reported in the newspapers outside.

During the press conference, Guy was uncharacteristically quiet, but Li Ming picked up a lot of topics and talked freely.

"First of all, the Knicks are a great team. People here love basketball and their team. They are all great and deserve any victory." His answer praised almost every player in the city. One person, every corner.

On the bus back to the hotel, Li Ming even took the initiative to tell Guy a joke to make him happy.Guy still looked sullen though.

"Hey, buddy, what's the matter? Don't be like this. That ball was just luck. At worst, I'll play it back with you next time." Li Ming was referring to the fact that the Knicks had to go to the home court of Memphis in February. thing.

"I think I can guard him. At that time, I had the opportunity to be in that position. I just thought that after Amare came up, he would definitely catch the ball there." What Gay didn't expect was that Anthony didn't choose to be in that position. Position to catch the ball.

Instead, he took advantage of that moment to go to the other side, and passed the ball to Kidd after passing Kidd's hand.This is a problem with his prediction.

"Rudy, come and try my new earphones." Randolph took over the conversation. He obviously cared about his friend's emotions, but he was as clumsy as he didn't know how to comfort others.

Guy patted his forehead, took out a bottle of water from a random bag and drank it up.

"I'm going to deal with Jeff Green next, right?" He suddenly turned his head and asked.

"Yeah, his athletic talent is very good, are you from the same year?" Randolph asked.

"Hmph, I played against him in college. He does have two skills, but he is far behind Cameron." I think the first thing he wanted to say was to compare himself! !
This Jeff Green is a super forward from Georgetown University. He was picked by the Celtics with the fifth overall pick in the first round in 2007, but he was immediately sent as Ray Allen's exchange chip in the big deal with the Supersonics. to the west.He has a high basketball IQ and amazing athleticism.

And the offensive methods are very rich, both with their backs to the basket and facing the basket.The confrontation strength is very good, with the offensive skills of a power forward and good outside marking ability.The passing vision is clear, and the shooting ability, especially the mid-range and long-range jumper ability, has been improving.

The most frightening thing is that he can control the ball or play low-post singles, and he has excellent flank defense; however, his shortcomings can also be obvious. Through Li Ming's magic pupil system, it can be clearly seen that his shooting is unstable, lacks signature skills, and his aggressiveness is intermittent. Defensive power forward.

In 2011, a heart problem was detected, followed by surgery, and he was reimbursed for the season.After heart surgery, he actively participated in rehabilitation training and strictly followed the doctor's instructions to recover quickly. Now he has been able to adapt to the intensity of the game. This is a very resilient player.

It seems that Gay will face another fierce battle.

"Is their current defender Court Lee from the Magic before?" Someone asked.

Yes, it was the player who didn't score in the sky at the end of Game [-] of the finals, and handed over the victory to the Lakers.

This is a swingman with a fierce defense, and he belongs to the same category as Tony Allen.

However, Garnett, the team's big center, is one year older. Although he still averages 17.4 points and 9 rebounds per game, his attendance rate is already a new low in recent seasons.

He has problems with his right knee and elbow, and the team's starting offensive guard is likely to be Jason Terry, who was just traded over.

Although Terry is old, his style of play keeps his body very good, has a high attendance rate, and often has a magical touch in the game. He is a player trusted by the coach.

"I don't know if I can keep up with Terry." Du Lin in the front row also joined everyone's discussion. The atmosphere in the car began to clear up a little bit, and everyone was no longer frustrated by the previous defeat.

They all put themselves into the preparations for the next match with full confidence.

"Rajon Rondo's rebounding and defense are almost the best in the first position, except for Kidd." Tony Allen looked at Bayless and Li Ming.

"Well, yes, he is a player who plays with his brain, and his passing is very ghostly, and he is not easy to judge." Kenyon Dooling seemed to appreciate Rondo.

Rondo led the University of Kentucky to win a number of games, including buzzer-beaters against the University of Louisville and the University of Central Florida, but Rondo failed to advance to the NCAA Final Four during his freshman and sophomore years. He was still selected to the All-Rookie Team of the Southeast Conference.He set a national single-season steal record with 87 in his freshman year.

It is worth mentioning that Cousins, who later shined in the Kings, was his teammate in Kentucky.

In the past season, Rondo scored 24 consecutive assists in double digits in the regular season, with a career-high 52.5% assist success rate, and his scoring average increased by 1.3 points. At the end of the season, he won the assist title with an average of 36.9 minutes per game Scoring 11.9 points, 11.7 assists, and 4.8 rebounds, this is a very terrifying data, and even many media compared him with Jason Kidd.

Rondo is a fish in water in the Celtics system, and his perimeter defense can even be compared with Ray Allen and others.His keen sense of smell allows him to predict almost every defensive matchup and rebounding point.

As a short point guard, he often grabs more than a dozen rebounds in a game, or even 20 rebounds.

In the 2010-2011 season, Rondo sent 17 assists in the first game.In the game against the New York Knicks, he sent a career-high triple-double of 24 assists. In the game against the Detroit Pistons, he sent 17 assists again. The number of assists in the first four games reached 67 times, creating A new NBA record.This is an astonishing statistic that has never been seen before or since, and it has attracted the attention of the entire league.

"But his outside shooting is very poor, almost no." Bayless added.Rondo and Terry are the two who are about to face off, so they pay special attention to their news.

Although Rondo's big hands control the ball very well, his shooting is really bad. Some coaches even said that his shooting cannot be improved, but this cannot conceal his talent and sense of organization.

The most frightening thing about the Celtics is that they have champion coach Rivers in charge, which determines that their lower limit will not be too bad. As long as they work hard, it is still very possible to reach the conference finals, and even the Eastern Conference finals are unknown.
