Chapter 549: The Italian Cannon is Coming
"Myers is obviously a little stretched when facing the main players on the opposite side, especially when facing the super defenders on the opposite side. His ability to block, which is already the first-level league, has no effect when facing Kaili."
Kevin McHale had already shouted out when he saw Irving performing, and this is also a fact. To compare, you can clearly see one thing, that is, the Banker Life Arena is very quiet, and in the Pacers' home court, two consecutive rounds of sweeps, the first time was suppressed at the beginning of the first quarter for more than a quarter.
Turner's confidence has been completely destroyed by the opponent. In fact, he was asked to defend Tatum and Jaylen Brown, but he would not have the disadvantage of playing like this. The only problem is that he defended Irving, who is one of the most powerful players in the league in military training.
Turner, who had just lost his face, did not think about how to get back the face he had just lost, but thought about how to complete his defensive task.
When defending the small man, his steps were retreating further, giving the opponent more space and a distance between them.
He began to slowly retreat under Tatum's step-by-step pressure, and Turner gave the opponent's offensive players more offensive space.
With such a large space, even Tatum dared to make a three-pointer directly. In the last game, he made 1 of 6 three-pointers. This time, after giving enough space, he directly completed the first three-pointer.
When facing an outside super team like the Celtics, Turner obviously couldn't hold on. When he was leading now, Rozier's defensive weakness could also get a chance to play.
The continuous offensive rhythm is on the Celtics side, Lin Sen is off the court, and who should stand up at this time?
Oladipo wanted to take the ball, but now he couldn't run the tactics and couldn't find the rhythm of the offensive. Jaylen Brown's defense is still very reliable. He just took on the heavy responsibility of offense. Immediately, on the defensive end, Oladipo did not find an opportunity to attack in him.
But the Pacers' offense began to work, and the attack was at the beginning that the two super end points were replaced because the defensive end was not strong enough.
Bogdanovic and Gallinari, the two European cannons, began to fire.
Lin Sen is not on the court. Logically speaking, the offensive space of these two people is not too comfortable. Everyone knows that their biggest advantage is that they have top shooting ability. So, in this regard, the Celtics' defense dare not relax.
It's one thing not to relax, it's another thing to be thrown by the opponent. Bogdanovic was stared by Jaylen Brown when he was receiving the ball.
With not much time, Bogdanovic dribbled the ball and took another step behind the three-point line to complete a three-point shot. It was very difficult, but he still hit the three-pointer.
"Boyan!!!" Reggie Miller shouted his name. As the first person in Pacers' history, his entire life was given to the Pacers' team. His technical characteristics are also very obvious. His three-point ability is extremely strong and his physical fitness is not strong. A typical player who relies on his own skills to become a superstar. Now Reggie Miller also sees it from Boyn Bogdanovic.
But now he is just a defender who averages over 10 points per game, and in this team, another Italian cannon is the weapon that can really kill people at the three-point line.
Run directly from the left side above the arc of the three-point line to the right side. Compared to Bogdanovic, Gallinari's tactical low post is obviously one level higher.
The two consecutive pick-and-rolls without the ball allowed Garinari to be in an open position when he reached the right receiving position. Oladipo's precise pass guidance found Garinari's position, and receiving the ball was a beautiful shot.
Horford's replacement was quick but had no effect. He could only watch this three-pointer pass through the net.
"Put your Italian cannon a few more shells." Lin Sen couldn't help but yell at the field.
Two consecutive three-pointers have helped the Pacers slowly stabilize the situation. Lin Sen is not in a hurry to play immediately, and has more rest time.
Gallinari was as Linson said, his shells had not been completely finished, and now was when Gallinari was most serious on the offensive end.
Just now, it was an open three-pointer. Immediately, in this round, Gallinari's offense immediately showed the huge progress he had shown in the Pacers this season.
This time he faced Morris. To a certain extent, he could be considered an excellent 3D player. He has no disadvantage in speed when facing Gallinari at the fourth position.
Gallinari did not get rid of Morris, but his three-pointer was still shot.
Three consecutive three-pointers, but as soon as the second quarter came up, the Pacers, who did not Lin Sen, suppressed the Celtics at the beginning.
"Italian cannons, rush! Blast them to death." Lin Sen was already on the sidelines to support Chinese. Although Gallinari might not understand a word except Italy, when he heard Italy, he could still know that this was describing him.
Soon, the Celtics gave him higher defensive treatment, and it was difficult for him to perform as divinely as he had just played.
The score gap has been narrowed, but the score gap has remained around 3 to 5 points.
After four minutes of the second quarter, Lin Sen was already warmed up at the technical station and ready to play. McMillan was very satisfied with the team's performance in the past few minutes. Without Lin Sen, he even brought the game back.
Of course, this situation is definitely just an accidental situation. McMillan is preparing to take the opportunity to overtake the score in one fell swoop, which requires Lin Sen to be present.
"Okay, Lin is going to play. The Pacers are now recovering in form and may overtake in the second quarter. The opponent focuses on Danilo, and it is difficult for him to have another chance."
The Celtics still have an advantage in the score, but after this combination of punches, the momentum has reached the Pacers' side.
As soon as he finished speaking, a three-pointer that was one step away from the three-point line, Garlinari received the pass almost through the half-time and didn't even think about other moves, and he scored three-pointers in one go.
No one expected that Gallinari could do this. The old man, who has always been famous for his steady attack, basically did not hesitate at all when choosing three-pointers. The first two three-pointers had already helped him fill his confidence, so even if it was not the way he used to to attack, he was determined at the moment of attacking.
