Chapter 231 Xiao Hang's Power

Irving opened up an embarrassing situation for the Celtics and finally scored.

The sluggishness of the Celtics on the offensive end is obvious to all teams. Fortunately, the defense is still there, otherwise I really don't know what it is to be the No.3 in the Eastern Conference.

However, today's defense against Xiao Hang seemed to be in some trouble.

Xiao Hang seems to be able to play any of the five Celtics.

Irving's defense is pretty good. Jaylen Brown started out defensively and beat James hard in the playoffs. Club members, it's easy to think of Jaylen Brown.

Tatum's height is good, but his defensive awareness is a bit weak, and his top defense is okay. If he is easily stunned by the opponent's running position, the Spurs are among the top in the league tactically.

Hayward's explosive speed has dropped since he was seriously injured, and Xiao Hang crushed him with his body.

Horford, emmmmm, Xiao Hang said that they are the happiest when they play big.

Xiao Hang took turns starting against the Celtics in the first quarter. Although he scored 13 points in a single quarter, Popovich was a little unhappy.

Xiao Hang wasted too much physical energy in the one-on-one duel with the opponent, and he didn't shoot a single three-pointer in the first quarter.

For the Celtics, Coach Stevens is also very embarrassed. Xiao Hang's offensive starts now from outside the three-point line.

And the effect of double-teaming was not very good. Xiao Hang sent 4 assists in the first quarter, 2 of which were sent after double-teaming, and there were 5 double-teams in total in the first quarter, and he didn't make a single mistake. Instead, the players had negative emotions and doubted whether the coach's double-teaming was a good tactic.

In the second half of the first quarter, he used unlimited defenses, which allowed Xiao Hang to show the same indiscriminate singles play as Owen.

Headache, headache, how difficult it is for Coach Stevens for the first time, better than LeBron James not letting Coach Stevens do this, after all, James has technical shortcomings.

James: I am not good at shooting.

The break between the first and second quarters was very short, and players from both sides were already on the court.

The Spurs here are Mills, Forbes, Xiao Hang, Isaac, and Metu.

Celtics Rozier, Smart, Jaylen Brown, Hayward, Morris, these should be the Celtics with the best defensive statistics.

Anyway, none of the Celtics' insiders can protect the frame, mainly relying on mobility to force the opponent to make those difficult shots.

Rozier took possession of the ball across the half and gave it to Jaylen Brown. Brown took on the offensive responsibility and used Morris's cover to break through.

However, dreams are always full, and ideals are always skinny.

Brown was trapped between Metu and Xiao Hang.

Although Metu's offensive talent is limited, but his excellent running and jumping ability, under the mediation of Popovich, in just one season, although he has limited playing time per game, he has developed a good defensive habit, although it still needs to be refined. , but it is enough for most of the team's perimeter players.

Coupled with Xiao Hang harassing from behind, it was difficult to play the ball.

After learning from McGrady, Brown also began to swell. Since he can't play the ball, he should just pull it directly.

Those who don't have a superstar get superstar's disease.

Meitu's judgment was accurate, and he put on the big hat, and the basketball directly landed in Xiao Hang's arms.

Xiao Hang grabbed the ball and rushed, and Smart also rushed. Regardless of his name and figure, he was really Smart among the players, but his running was at the level of a small steel cannon.

But Xiao Hang said that no matter how strong the steel cannon is, it can run faster than a supercar?

Xiao Hang made an emergency stop jumper, tapped Smart, and shot again!

"Shua—" Seeing Smart's depressed expression in the air, and then lonely back to get the ball, Xiao Hang felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

"Hush—" At the TD North Shore Garden, the fans were actually booing their players.

It's really embarrassing. Xiao Hang has heard about the terrible xenophobia and racial discrimination in Boston. Even Russell, the meritorious player of the Green Kay, doesn't like Boston fans very much. The issue of racial discrimination almost didn't allow the Celtics to retire their jersey.

Brown's current ability can't hold back Lu Kai's offense at all, while on defense, he can restrain others, but makes Xiao Hang's singles semi-crippled.

In the first 3 minutes of the second quarter, Xiao Hang relied on his steady singles, scored 4 of 3, and scored 6 points. However, Lu Kai failed to score a goal. He was originally beaten 27 to 21 by 6 points in the first quarter. , and now it has come to 12 points.

Then Stevens can only take the lead in dispatching the main players.

Xiao Hang continued to be on the field with his starting players. Isaac did not perform very well today, and Horford's defense was a bit suppressed.

Because Horford is a player who can't jump even if you shoot to death.

Isaac's low-post ability is not good, and he mainly plays face-to-face. Except for a few times with Xiao Hang, his singles fell into Horford's defensive trap.

And Morris also restrained Adelaide. It seems that Coach Stevens is going to start with Xiao Hang's other players.

If you can't be restricted, you don't have to. Basketball is a 5-person sport, and other people are restricted. It depends on how you, Xiao Hang, can turn the world upside down.

And the Spurs' appearance plan is also doomed that Xiao Hang really can't make a big difference, Xiao Hang quickly went down to rest, until the last 2 minutes came up and played 3 rounds, he hit a three-pointer and assisted Murray for an air-cut layup .

Although they scored 5 points in a row, Lukai started to gain momentum before. Owen scored 9 points in a single quarter to lead Lukai to catch up with the score. The two sides ended up 55-50, with only a 5-point difference.

But in the second half, Xiao Hang rested for 2 minutes and appeared after Irving made a free throw.

Xiao Hang directly controlled the ball, which was a signal. Coach Stevens directly called the players on the court to pay attention.

Xiao Hang did not call for cover, but gestured to pull away.

Facing Brown's continuous crotch forward, he suddenly pulled out a few centimeters before the three-point line with a "shua-".

Irving dribbled the ball across half court, used Horford's cover, made a breakthrough, and made a fake fax shot.

Murray made a fast break with the basketball in hand and dunked with one hand.

Owen dribbled the ball across the half court and directly singled out Murray. After shaking continuously, Baifo nodded Murray and was about to shoot again.

Xiao Hang felt elated. It was too late for him to assist in the defense. He did not expect to hit the iron, received the rebound, and dribbled the ball straight to the frontcourt.

Two steps outside the three-point line, take a while, and suddenly pass the ball directly to the inside, only to see Isaac is already in the air, "Kang--".

It was Irving who took the ball. This time he didn't play alone. He started with Horford's screen, received Irving's pass back, others ran, and Tatum received the ball in an air cut.

Isaac didn't agree, he gave up Hayward and went straight to Tatum. Hayward had a chance, but Tatum was unwilling to give up this opportunity to perform.

"Boom" The two collided in the air, and their bodies made a dull impact sound.

Isaac went straight up and down. It was a beautiful interference. The referee didn't blow the whistle. When Tatum complained to the referee, Xiao Hang didn't care about 21 and rushed straight up.

"Doo—" Xiao Hang dunked after Brown, and even made Brown's defensive foul. The hearts of the players like Lukai are now all chilling.

Who would have thought that Owen's two free throws just now were the only points scored by Lu Kai within 3 and a half minutes of Xiao Hang's appearance?
