Chapter 787
May thirteenth.
The second round of the series has entered the countdown stage.
The fifth game is of great significance to any pair of teams.
Especially those teams that are far behind, if they want to continue playing, then they must win.
And the four teams in the two games that will start today will be slightly better.
However, this game is still their match point battle. As long as any team can win the third game, the future will be really beneficial to them.
first game.
The Celtics will play this game at the Pacers' home court.
If they can win this game, the Pacers are basically in danger.
With their offensive and defensive performance, the fourth game will definitely not give the Pacers too many opportunities.
Because judging from the playoffs played by the two teams, the Celtics still have to be more fully prepared after all.
so.
This game is very important for the Pacers.
If there is no way to win at their home court, then go to the Celtics' home court, and the final result is that they will be out with a high probability.
As the game started, the Pacers seemed to be fully prepared, and the defensive end played their style thoroughly, which made the Celtics very uncomfortable at first.
Simultaneously.
Paul George, who had a lot of ups and downs in the previous performance, finally played his dominance in this field!
When he faced Jeff Green, or Gerald Wallace and his ilk, he not only played with ease, but also with ease.
and so.
After the first quarter of the game, the Celtics were almost locked by the Pacers.
Fortunately, Qin Tao was still there, otherwise they would definitely not be able to score [-] points, only nine points behind the Pacers.
Break between festivals.
Qin Tao scolded the other teammates mercilessly.
Stevens couldn't get in the way at all, and he didn't want to be a peacemaker after Qin Tao got angry, because their performance was really bad.
And the others knew that their previous performance was very slow, and each of them held their noses and resigned to their fate.
If they had played well, this scolding would not have come.
If it doesn't work, after playing such a performance with this side, no one's mentality is inflated.
What is even surprising is that the reaction of the fans at the scene was not the kind of ecstatic feeling, but rather calm.
But you can understand it if you think about it.
In fact, their chances with the Celtics are [-]/[-].
Regardless of whether this is the Pacers' home court, the Celtics' performance in the regular season or the playoffs can be said to have a super good mentality.
Then add that this game is really very important to them, and they just won a quarter of the game, which doesn't explain the problem at all.
so.
Not only did the Pacers know their shame and be brave, but the fans at the scene were also very mature.
Play in the second quarter.
Because the rest of the team performed poorly, Stevens directly replaced a large number of substitutes.
Under the leadership of Qin Tao, this group of substitutes really played a very positive performance.
Especially on the defensive end, they were able to compete with most of the main Pacers.
have to say.
Any substitute who wants to gain trust, get more playing time, and get the status the team wants must play with real strength.
As long as they perform so well in this game, or even in any next game, unless Stevens is blind, it is absolutely impossible not to use them.
But tonight's Pacers were really well prepared, and after Vogel felt that the Celtics wanted to start, he put all the main players on the field without hesitation.
As such.
The gap between the players of the two teams became very obvious!
Except for Olynik, who is functionally dislocated, the performance of others is not enough to fight against the main force of the Pacers.
Especially Paul George, he really broke out from the first quarter to the second quarter.
of course.
If it weren't for Qin Tao's strong hard steel, the Celtics' lineup might have been defeated.
But the final result was not very good.
As the old saying goes, this is a five-man sport, not a one-man sport.
When the Pacers had more people to play, Olynyk was restricted by the Pacers, and the Celtics were struggling.
So after the halftime game was over, the atmosphere in the Celtics team was about to explode.
Because what they played in the first half was a piece of shit!
Except for the substitute and Qin Tao, the other main players are so fucking non-existent!
So during the half-time break, not only Qin Tao cursed, but even Stevens couldn't help but swear a few times.
This situation is very rare for Stevens, but it can also be seen from their reaction how bad the game was in the first half.
The Pacers finally saw smiles on the faces of the players, and judging from their mental state, they were not as nervous as before.
After all, halftime has been played, and they have already led the Celtics by [-] points!
With their performance on the defensive end and Paul George's continuous explosion, it is a high probability that they will stabilize their advantage in the second half.
After the halftime break, the emotions and appearances of the two teams returning to the stadium have already explained the problem.
Everyone's heart looks a little heavy on the Celtics side.
Including Stevens and the coaching staff, they looked very depressed.
At this time, don't say anything like having a chance.
If the Celtics lose this game, even if they return to their home court, with a 2:3 situation, they are undoubtedly standing on the edge of a cliff.
Besides, Paul George broke out in this game, wouldn't he break out in the next game?
Coupled with the presence of veterans like David West and Scola, even if Qin Tao can block Hibbert, can the others recover and score [-]-[-] with others?
These are all problems!
That's why Qin Tao flew into a rage, and Stevens burst into foul language.
pity.
The advice at halftime did not wake others up.
If there is anything happy about them, it might be that Rajon Rondo's organization is finally having some effect.
But these are not enough, at least not enough when they are [-] points behind others!
By the end of the third quarter, the Celtics could only barely hold on, chasing the point difference to only [-] points.
But there is only one quarter in the game, and as far as the Pacers' defense is concerned, they will never let them come back against the wind!
After that, the fourth quarter started, as expected.
The main players of the Pacers can say that they are doing their best!
They got carried away and devoted themselves to both offense and defense, smashing the Celtics to pieces!
finally!
When the Celtics lost the game with a score of 80:98, the entire venue was filled with suppressed emotions for the whole game!
after the game.
Qin Tao and Stevens scolded other players without hesitation.
Doing so would certainly have a bad impact on other people, but the responsibility for this game is entirely theirs!
