my golden age

Chapter 33

The shouts of the fans at the scene made Gao Fei furious.

Bill Russell sat courtside.Although he had no personal contact with Gao Fei, he had a vague premonition that such provocation from the fans was not a good thing for the Celtics.

Fortunately, this hunch did not seem to come true.

It's just that after Gao Fei and Pierce each received a technical offender, the intensity of physical confrontation between the two sides has reached a new level.Efficiency drops further, but always maintains an alternating lead.

With one and a half minutes left in the game, the Lakers led 69-68.

Gao Fei is a player with strong strength and physical fitness, and he is at the end of his strength at this time, his legs are as heavy as lead.Relying on willpower, insist on playing the final stage of the game.

At this time, the physical fitness of the players on both sides is close to exhaustion, and the competition is who is the real man.In addition, shooting ability is also an important part.

Kobe sinks low, catches a high-flying pass, ignores boos from the audience, turns over and shoots a jumper!
clang!
With such a high-intensity offense and defense throughout the game, even Kobe lost his focus.

The scene of ten people scrambling for rebounds reappeared.

Gao Fei flew forward and was the first to touch the basketball. He had an idea and wanted to call Odom on the right side of the court.

Odom is charging forward, knees on the basketball, and kicks it right out of the baseline.

beep!
Throw in by Dick Batawi, baseline by Celtic.

Rivers stood nervously on the sidelines, looking up at the time from time to time.His strategy has basically been achieved, dragging the Lakers into hand-to-hand combat, but once he loses the game, his previous efforts will be in vain.

Although Pierce has a big mouth, he can be regarded as a hero, dribbling the ball in the frontcourt and attacking against time.

The defender he faced was Gao Fei, and it was not easy to break through, so he decided early on to attack by forcing long shots.

6 seconds left on attack time!
Pierce received the ball with his right hand, faced the defense, and made a strong three-pointer.

The strength of this shot is just right, the arc is also very positive, and it looks like it is going to go in.

Pierce is full of confidence, keeping his shooting hand, ready to drink the ball and celebrate when the ball is scored.It's a pity that half of the basketball went in, and it bounced out like a joke.

Kwame Brown and Kendrick Perkins fought each other in the penalty area. In the end, Perkins got the better of him, pretending to be pushed by Kwame Brown's hand on his back, and ran forward to the baseline.

The acting is superb and deserves a statuette.

Dick Batawi was cheated and called Kwame Brown for a rebound foul.

Kwame Brown is not good at words, nor does he know how to argue with the referee.

As a star, Kobe negotiated with Dick Batawi in the past.

"Kendrick Perkins was pushed out of the bottom line by Kwame Brown, and the penalty is fine. Next time, remind Kwame not to put your hands on others." Dick Batawi gave enough reasons, and Kobe had nothing to say .

Rivers called a timeout!
Lakers 69-68 Celtics!

45.2 seconds!
The fans shouted the whole game, most of them had a hoarse voice, so they took a break during the timeout.

The cheerleaders hold the cheerball in both hands and dance neatly, turning into a beautiful landscape on the court, relieving the tension caused by the anxious battle.

Rivers drew a cover tactic at the top of the arc, which is still executed by the team boss Pierce.

Phil Jackson has confirmed that Gao Fei is the strongest defender in the team, and assigned a task: "Gao, the Celtics will end the offense with Paul Pierce, can they defend him?"

"Yes." Gao Fei answered lightly.

"The players on the field have almost no physical strength, and the offensive success rate will not be high, but the opponent has the home court advantage. The victory or defeat lies in your defense." Phil Jackson warned.

"Don't worry, Phil. I will block Paul Pierce with all my might."

Phil Jackson didn't speak any more. Looking at the back of Gao Fei stepping on the court, he felt that this player seemed to be a born winner.

Kendrick Perkins mentioned the top screen, forcing Kwame Brown to switch on Pierce.

Rivers had a good plan, but Gao Fei didn't care about Perkins, who didn't even have a range.

With the Celtics trailing by one point, Pierce didn't dare to waste time. He switched from fast to slow and broke through to the penalty area. He faked the ball and wanted to use the time difference for a layup.

Goofy jumped behind him, touched the basketball Pierce shot, and changed its course.

clang!
Strike the iron twice!

Ricky Davis was lucky to get an offensive rebound, but Kobe defended him closely and was unable to attack, so he hurriedly passed it to Delonty West on the outside.

"Paul, you're so mean!" Goofy pointed his little finger at Piers.

Pierce's blood surged, his hands were outstretched for the ball, and he was ready to end the game.

Delonti West remembered what Pierce said in the first quarter and passed it on without hesitation.

"Paul, as I said, you are a second-rate guy at most, and you can't break my defense." Gao Fei was caught by Pierce's tricks for a long time, and at the critical moment, he took advantage of his opponent's competitive spirit.

Pierce turned into a face-up mode and retorted: "I will not pass you? Don't dream!" He was irritated by Goofy, gave up his shot attempt, and chose to break through again.

Now the core of both sides is fighting with willpower, and the legs are weak, and they can't jump at all.Gao Fei, who has more accurate defensive predictions, naturally has an advantage.

Pierce's dribbling rhythm was disrupted, and he broke through to the left paint area, unable to move an inch. Seeing that the attack time was running out, he made a hasty shot!

clang!
The key is the triple iron!
Not only the mentality of the fans in the North Shore Garden Arena collapsed, but even Pierce's teammates were also downcast.

Goofy protected the defensive rebound and passed to Bryant on the perimeter before Pierce fouled.

Pierce couldn't stop the action and fouled Goofy without the ball.Seeing that the opportunity to give the Lakers two free throws.

Dick Batawi was merciful and did not call Pierce a foul, but the result of the Celtics' defeat did not change in the end.

The final whistle sounded!

With a score of 69-68, the Lakers defeated their old rival Celtics in an away game, ushering in a four-game winning streak.

科比20分6篮板2助攻；高飞15分8篮板7助攻。

皮尔斯18分；里基戴维斯11分3助攻；德隆蒂韦斯特9分5助攻。

Mike Breen got the feedback and said: "The score of both sides in this game is the team's lowest score in the new season."

Reggie Miller said with a smile: "Both sides focus on hand-to-hand combat and have no energy to attack at all."

"It was a savage game, a bit of a playoff game."

"Whether it's the playoffs, the intensity of the finals will not be much greater than this game."

The fans of the North Shore Garden Arena were extremely disappointed and left the arena one after another with a sense of loss.

Bryant remained on the court for courtside interviews.

Goofy clapped hands with the remaining Celtics, then walked to the sidelines to greet Bill Russell.The two laughed and chatted for a while, then Gao Fei returned to the locker room.

Phil Jackson said: "Let's not stay in Boston, wait for Kobe to return to the locker room, go back to the hotel to pack our luggage, and rush to Washington overnight. We will rest there."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Gao Fei was puzzled.

Phil Jackson laughed: "Do you want to stay in this city that is hostile to the Lakers?"

"That's right. Anyway, there is a high probability that I won't come here to play again this season. It's better to leave early." The strong oppression of Boston fans left a deep impression on Gao Fei.
