The ceremony for retirement of the jersey was very simple, that is, Pierce's jersey was hung in the center of the stadium, and the lights were low. What was waiting for was the cheers and shouts of all the fans of the venue for this veteran who once made great contributions to the Celtics. All of this should have been what Pierce, who played for 15 years and won the championship, deserved.

The voices are now weak. From the fans' jerseys tonight, we can see that there is no shortage of Pierce's fans here. Many people wear Pierce's jerseys to cheer for this Celtic team. At least half of the fans came for him tonight, but this does not mean how much they are in to cheer for Pierce after watching this shit-feeding game.

DJ on the scene was already using all his strength to make the atmosphere on the scene more ignited, but the applause was still not very warm.

Next, the Celtic players will hug Pierce in the center of the court one by one, but this hug does not look harmonious at all.

"Hahaha! The Celtics players must be depressed. Why did Paul Pierce choose the day of retirement jersey today, so they can't hide in the locker room safely when they lose so many points. Paul Pierce must be depressed. Why are you guys so bad and you can still lose 27 points in the first half?" O'Neal was very happy to watch the excitement. Although he had been a teammate with Pierce, everyone knows that this fat man has never given his former teammate much face. Not to mention being a teammate for a year, Pierce was still a failed season.

The irony of the commentary, the gap in scores, and the voices of fans, all of this seemed to tell Pierce that tonight was a failed retirement ceremony. But at this time, Paul Pierce felt that he should give his players some confidence, and at this time he needed some support from his predecessors!

Pierce originally planned to post a review of his Celtic career and talk about his bright and tiger years with the Celtics, but when he was on the spot, he suddenly changed his mind after saying a while: "Tonight is not a pleasant evening. It is possible that at this time, everyone has no intention of listening to what I say? What I want to tell you now is that losing 27 points is nothing. Old fans who have watched the 2005-07 season will naturally know that it is a dark time for the Celtics. Maybe the fans can't even win a game when they watch the home court for a month."

This reminds many fans of that dark years, 15 wins and 67 losses, the last place in the league. This is the first time that the Celtics, as a giant, are so miserable, but immediately, in 2008, they welcomed three-rejection and their 17th championship, and reached the finals again in 2010. Unfortunately, they were defeated by their old rival Lakers in the finals.

But all the fans understand that what Pierce wants to tell them is that there will always be a rebound when it falls to the lowest point, and now is the time for them to rebound, from this game and this season.

Since the trade left Pierce and Garnett, it has indeed been a few years of trough, but with Irving's trade, convinced Hayward and Horford to join, the growth of the Double Tenhua, and a large number of outstanding puzzle-type role players, the Celtics ushered in their best revival season.

The same is true for this game. Judging from the first half, there is no difference between the Celtics and a team that is competing for the No. 1 pick. Every position on the offensive end was beaten by others. Tonight, the Pacers scored 72 points in the first half. That is definitely not anyone who performed well. They were all in their form to be able to score 72 points in the half.

The Celtics are a team that combines offense and defense. They should be among the first-class teams. Except for the Cavaliers, other teams are among the top ten offense and defense in the league. Therefore, the Celtics' defense ability has always been strong. Originally, Stevens is a coach who focuses on defense. He often emphasizes the team's real questions rotation, which is not achieved by the Celtics. They hope that the Celtics can change in the second half and there will be a Jedi counterattack in this game.

The Pacers did not continue to embarrass Pierce at the North Shore Garden Arena, but watched the jersey retirement ceremony on site in the visiting team's locker room. When they saw Pierce's ambitions and bold statements, they were all disdainful. Brother, the reason why Istanbul Night in the football world is legendary is because he is a minority. In this game, the Pacers now cannot give the Celtics any chance to play, and are destined to destroy this feast.

"Hey hey hey! What are you trying to do? Come back? I want to beat them thirty."

During the halftime break, we had already discussed whether they should appropriately paddle the water in the second half to give other players more opportunities, but when they saw the North Shore Garden Arena surging, Lin Sen's thoughts began to become evil, and he wanted to give the opponent a heavier blow in this game.

All Pacers players looked at Lin Sen as if they were looking at a demon, hey hey! You have won 27 points. At the ceremony of a celebrity's retirement jersey opposite, you want to make this bigger.

"Since that's the case, try our three-point lineup. They gave us enough three-pointers in the first half. I think at this time, I have to give this opportunity and respect." McMillan agreed to Lin Sen's conditions with a smile.

And in fact, in McMillan's heart, he also wanted to try whether their strongest offensive lineup would have a three-point chance in the four-point lineup that quickly rotated against the opponent. The Celtics also doubled Lin Sen because of the height and speed of the four forwards, which gave the Pacers a lot of three-point opportunities in the first half, but even in the first half, the Pacers were not the best three-point lineup.

Lin Sen did not start at the second half during the rest, but their lineup was not weak, Turner, Garlinari, Bogdanovic, Oladipo, and Gordon. Three people in this lineup made 40% of the three-point shooting percentage. As a defender, Oladipo was the lowest in the team.
