"Doug, tonight's game has attracted much attention from the fans. Everyone knows the grievances between these two teams!"

"And this is the first time you have met this season. The Los Angeles Lakers are currently in full swing. How much do you think you have to win tonight?"

When the two sides warmed up before the game, the reporter conducted a pre-match interview with the head coaches of both sides.

Doc Rivers took a deep breath and replied: "Then you are right, the Los Angeles Lakers are very scary now."

"They defeated the Thunder, Mavericks, Heat and other strong teams one after another! We have to pay attention to this!"

"In fact, we have been preparing for this game for a few days."

"In order to be able to maintain the best condition, we even rested some core players before."

"So in this game, we will stand on the court with the best posture."

"As for the outcome, no one can guarantee. I can only say that our players will do their best on the court."

"As long as we can dedicate a wonderful game to the fans who support us, I think this ending is enough."

"Of course, if it can end the opponent's nine-game winning streak, that would be great!"

Rivers' answer was neither humble nor overbearing, very coach-like, and did not offend anyone.

However, his last sentence still reveals his belief in wanting to win, which is also human nature.

Since it's a competition, who wouldn't want to win?

Later, the reporter came to the Lakers again.

"Mike, tonight you are going to win [-] consecutive victories, and the opponent is your old enemy, the Boston Celtics!"

"Coach Rivers told me just now that they have prepared a lot for this game and will go all out tonight."

"I want to know, are you also fully prepared for today's game?"

D'Antoni shook his head slightly: "No! We didn't make any special preparations."

"We just train normally every day, and we don't treat it differently."

"In my opinion, all opponents are the same, even our old enemies."

"I also don't want any special treatment, I think it will show our lack of self-confidence."

"If they have really prepared for this game for a long time, then I can only say that they are too unconfident!"

"That is completely a manifestation of fear of losing!"

This answer was somewhat unexpected to the reporters.

He originally thought that the Lakers would pay special attention to this game like the Celtics did, but he didn't expect the Lakers to do the opposite.

……

A few minutes later, the pre-match warm-up was over, and the starters from both sides played.

Celtic starters:

Point Guard: Rajon Rondo

Score: Avery Bradley

Small Forward: Paul Pierce

Power Forward: Brandon Bass

Center: Kevin Garnett

Lakers starters:

Point guard: Steve Nash

Score: Kobe Bryant

Small Forward: Qin Xiao

Power Forward: Pau Gasol

Center: Dwight Howard

Afterwards, the players from both sides greeted each other after entering the field.

Although they are old enemies, they are only on the court. The game has not started yet, so it is normal to say hello.

Kobe and Pierce were also talking and laughing.

"Old guy, I'm going to end your nine-game winning streak tonight!"

Kobe showed disdain, and said: "Then just try it, have you seen that kid? Do you know how good he is? It's also a coincidence, you will face him tonight, and you will be beaten by Qin!"

Kobe pointed to Qin Xiao who was not far away, and said to Pierce with some pride in his tone.

Pierce also smiled dismissively: "I know him, he is very popular recently, but what I am least afraid of is this kind of stunned young player."

"Look, I will give that kid a good lesson and let him see what a real offensive kaleidoscope is!"

It can be seen that Pierce is very confident in his own strength, after all, he is the top floor player in the league.

Pierce is definitely a thriving player at the small forward position!

At this time, the referee signaled the two sides to stand separately and perform a mid-circle jump ball.

Warcraft Howard vs Wolf King Garnett!

The referee threw the ball high, and Howard relied on his youth and jumping ability to help the Lakers win the first wave of offense.

Nash advanced halfway with the ball and faced Rajon Rondo's defense.

Both of these two have the top ball quotient in the league, and they are both pass masters. It can be said that the two have a lot in common.

Outside the three-point line, Nash dribbled the ball while directing his teammates to move.

Under his dispatch, Kobe easily got rid of Bradley.

Seeing this, Nash immediately passed the ball, and Kobe took the ball and made a two-point shot.

The first attempt in this game turned out to be a bullet.

"The first ball at the opening was indeed the guy we are familiar with!"

Tonight's commentary lineup is also quite luxurious, all four of TNT's famous speakers are dispatched.

At this time, the one who teased Kobe was naturally the famous Lakers, Shaquille O'Neal.

"Haven't you guys reconciled with Kobe?" Kenny Smith said with a smile.

"Reconciliation is reconciliation, but it does not prevent me from teasing him."

"To be honest, if he hadn't made so many shots, I would have scored at least two thousand more points than I do now!"

O'Neill doesn't care about anything, as long as he wants, he can say it without any scruples.

"Heh...don't talk too much, you fat fish. I think Kobe saved you. Otherwise, where did you get the three consecutive championships?"

Barkley on the side couldn't sit still, and immediately yelled.

"Okay, okay, shut up, the Celtics scored!"

Amy Johnson is having a headache, and it's really uncomfortable to comment with this pair of critters.

It turned out that just now, the Wolf King protected the backcourt rebound, and the Celtics advanced quickly, catching the Lakers by surprise.

This is not like their style of play, they are known to be better at playing positional warfare.

And now as the main players grow older, it is rare to see their fast breaks.

But for that goal just now, their switching speed was very fast, and it was completely impossible to see that it was an old team.

"I really didn't expect that you old guys can run so fast."

Kobe was also a little surprised, and turned to Pierce and said.

"We may be a little old when we play against other teams, but when we play against you, I feel like I'm ten years younger in an instant!"

The old fritters of the two courts refused to accept each other, and the talk between them also became a highlight of this game.

The game continued, the ball returned to the Lakers, and Nash continued to organize the team's offense.

Just when Qin Xiao was going to bypass Pierce's defense to catch the ball, he heard a provocative voice in his ear.

"Boy, Kobe admires you very much, but tonight I will make him change his view of you!"

"Because, I'm going to kick your ass off!"
