Chapter 173: In the bloody hand-to-hand battle, Ryan was the fire that suffocated the entire North S
No matter how strong Ryan's personal ability is, it is impossible to defeat the Celtics' abnormal attack on the line every round.
No matter how calm Millsap is, it's impossible for the Nuggets to crack the Celtics' defense just by sending him in the starting lineup.
But if the effects of Ryan and Millsap are combined, the Celtics' defense will become quite tricky!
In the opening four consecutive attacks, the Nuggets scored steadily.
Boston fans have never seen a team play such a smooth offense at North Shore Garden.
Seeing that the Celtics' invincible defense was repeatedly broken, Rivers turned to look at Thibodeau in shock:
"What should we do next? Should we change our strategy?"
Rivers is like a player who doesn't understand any tactical details when playing a football manager game. He only knows how to apply the next "invincible tactic", and then sits back and watches the team wreak havoc all the way, while shouting out words during the game.
Suddenly there was a game where things went wrong for the team, and he didn't know how to adjust.
Thibodeau even laughed angrily. Do you want to change your strategy? you ask me? Brother, you are the head coach!
This is your team!
As an assistant coach, I can at most help you push from behind. But Rivers's method of playing is equivalent to asking Thibodeau to directly help him! Isn’t this a mess?
Thibodeau was also convinced that Rivers was able to get rid of Duncan who came to the Magic when he was the general manager.
Now that we have cards like the Big Three in our hands, we will be completely overwhelmed.
How on earth does this guy make so much money in a year!
Laughing to death, drawing tactics is Rondo’s business, what does it have to do with my head coach Rivers?
But of course Thibodeau didn't really complain about Rivers like that. He just waved his hand:
"It's okay, coach, let's see what happens next and then make plans!"
On the court, the game continues.
Although the defense was repeatedly broken, fortunately, the Celtics' offense felt good today.
Pierce took advantage of Garnett's pick-and-roll and scored a mid-range shot over Artest's head.
The key to why Pierce has never been able to become a superstar is that he is not very stable.
Sometimes getting 20 points is like chopping melons and vegetables, and sometimes you can only struggle to get a dozen points.
This situation is even more obvious after entering the period of the Celtics' Big Three.
But today, Pierce's touch looked pretty good.
With his efforts, Lukai was able to continue to hold on to the score despite the defensive disadvantages.
Bird curled his lips. It seemed that the outcome of today's game would not be decided so quickly.
In the game after the first quarter, the two teams had no choice but to take advantage of each other.
Ryan's side still responded calmly to the Celtics' attack on the line.
The pick-and-roll between Pierce and KG was also in full swing.
After the first quarter, the two teams tied 27 to 23, with the Nuggets leading by 4 points.
But in the second quarter, when Garnett also began to hit frequent shots from behind, the Celtics finally caught up with the score.
At the end of halftime, the score was 49 to 49, and the two teams were tied!
Although it was only a tie, the Boston fans at the scene were still worried.
Because in this half of the game, the Celtics have been chasing.
The Nuggets have always taken the initiative in the game, making it very difficult for the Celtics.
The Celtics find the game difficult to play, and the Nuggets actually find the game difficult to play too!
It is not easy for the Nuggets to take control of the situation. No matter how much Ryan combines the advantages of James and Kobe, he can at most prevent himself from being directly defended like the two of them.
But if you want to say how high the hitting rate can be and how easily the score can be scored, it is not realistic.
The Celtics are not only the team with the highest defensive efficiency this season, but looking at the entire history, they are a very capable defensive team.
It is a strong defensive team that can be compared with the 2004 Pistons, 93, 94 Knicks, and 89 Pistons!
What is the concept of a historically strong defensive team? Even better than Michael Jordan, when he played the Eastern Conference Finals with the Knicks in 1993, his shooting percentage was only 40%.
Therefore, Ryan did not achieve too abnormal efficiency.
Although they scored 16 points at halftime, it still felt like they were playing very hard.
There is no way. Under the Celtics' defense, it is already amazing to be able to ensure that the efficiency is almost the same as under normal circumstances.
After returning to the locker room, the players were very tired. The temperature of the air conditioner in the visiting team's locker room was particularly high because it had been tampered with.
The game was already stressful, and the stuffy locker room made the players even more anxious.
Now Ryan knows why so many art film scenes are set in saunas.
Because in a hot environment, you really want to get rid of the fire!
Ryan stripped down to a pair of boxers, and Bird saw that Ryan's body was already covered in bruises.
That's just because Ryan has light skin, so it's very obvious. In fact, most people are similar to Ryan at this time.
In Celtics games, physical confrontation has always been an unavoidable topic.
During the regular season this season, the Celtics were the fifth-most fouled team.
This data will rank first in the playoffs.
If a team is not a good defensive team, it will definitely commit a lot of fouls.
For comparison, the Nuggets, Pistons and Spurs, who also defended well this season, did not even rank in the top 15 in fouls.
The Spurs are the team with the second fewest fouls in the league.
This shows how rough the Celtics' defensive style is.
This tough team would rather knock you down than let you score an easy goal.
Of course, Ryan wouldn't be deterred.
In the first half, the Celtics were actually suppressed.
It was only at the end of the second quarter that Rondo stole a ball on a fake fax, which allowed them to equalize the score.
In the second half, just keep holding on!
It’s a tough fight for both sides, so today it’s up to us who can persevere to the end without losing the fight!
Thinking of this, in this hot locker room, Ryan, wearing only a pair of boxer briefs, stood up and clapped his hands:
“Bostonians are trying to force us to give up with this little trick of turning up the air conditioning, so let’s make the whole North Shore garden even hotter!
Let them struggle in the flames of revenge! "
Ryan's exciting words made all the hot men nod their heads and mutter something in their mouths.
The civilized part of them is gradually disappearing, and all that remains is the desire for victory!
So in the following third quarter of the game, the physical confrontation between the two sides became more intense.
At the beginning of this quarter, when Garnett was setting a pick-and-roll for Pierce, Ben directly raised his elbow, simply and roughly knocked away Garnett's screen, and then interfered with Pierce's jump shot. The best defense often only needs to be achieved in the simplest way.
And the most outrageous thing is that the referee has not called a foul on this ball.
Because Stern specifically stated before the game that this game should be played a little loosely.
The top two defensive teams in the league are facing each other. If the whistle is too tight, the game will undoubtedly be cut into pieces by fouls one after another.
Who would want to be suddenly stuck while watching a movie while having a great time?
In order to ensure enjoyment, today's fans have obtained "limited-time NBA game tickets in the 1990s".
Naturally, the Celtics would not show weakness. After one round, Ryan hit a jumper from the double.
Millsap just got stuck in position and was about to fight for the rebound, but was roughly knocked away by Perkins.
The referee was watching from the bottom line, but he acquiesced to this level of confrontation.
In the end, Perkins also successfully got the rebound and helped the Celtics keep the ball.
This kind of entanglement, fighting, and collision between each other was almost endless in the third quarter of the game.
Close scores, overwhelming scenes, fierce confrontations, frequent physical contact
All these factors are mixed together, not to mention the players, even the fans feel that the temperature in the North Shore Garden is rising.
Why are confrontational sports more popular than non-confrontational sports? That's why!
Not to mention ball sports, there are also racing competitions. The shots of cars crashing into each other are often the most talked about among fans.
This cruel duel filled the sultry air of the North Shore Garden with the strong smell of blood!
In the fierce confrontation, the scoring pace of both teams also began to slow down.
But Ryan still scored 26 points after three quarters!
Moreover, they continued to suppress the Celtics and never allowed the Celtics to gain even a 1-point lead!
The Celtics entered the fourth quarter with a 3-point disadvantage. During the break, Rivers roared in his duck voice:
"No personal heroism! No matter whether we are attacking or defending, we must bring out our momentum!"
After Rivers finished yelling, he put away the tactical board. There was no strategy on the tactical board.
Thibodeau shook his head, but don't tell me, these guys from the Celtics really do this chicken soup style of coaching.
With such encouragement from Rivers, everyone on the Celtics felt like they were getting excited and couldn't wait to go on the court and fight the Nuggets.
And Rondo has already started to pick up the tactical board to write and draw, and explain the tactics to his teammates.
Rivers glanced at Rondo: "Rajan, what are you talking about with them with the tactical board?"
Rondo: "I say coach's opinion!"
Marvin Albert was extremely excited. He thought that the first half of the game was already intense enough.
Unexpectedly, the intensity in the third quarter could reach a higher level.
It seems like this
The excitement of the fourth quarter was enough to bring a perfect ending to this game!
In the fourth quarter, the Celtics' defense was still rough.
Ryan's shooting efficiency also began to decrease, and the fierce confrontation began to affect Ryan's shooting feel.
Rivers was overjoyed that the Celtics' hard work for so long was finally in vain!
In the sixth minute of the fourth quarter, Garnett and Pierce had begun to use a method of shooting rather than sudden attacks to attack Ryan on the line.
Seeing that neither of them were pressing forward, Ryan took a long shot.
But the basketball did not enter the net, but hit the front of the basket hard!
But because the basketball bounces farther, it forms a long backboard.
Therefore, Ryan still has a chance to grab the ball himself!
He ran in from outside the three-point line to fight for the basketball that bounced into the mid-range. Garnett ran outside from the three-second zone, also chasing the ball.
The two people faced each other and jumped up at the same time. Ryan jumped up and caught the basketball, while Garnett pulled Ryan's wrist!
Pulled by such a huge force of inertia, Ryan's whole body turned sideways in the air and fell heavily!
Naturally, basketball is also out of control!
However, the referee still didn't blow the whistle!
They still follow Stern's "don't let fouls interrupt the game" arrangement.
Ryan ignored the pain in his back, turned over and reached out to grab the ball.
But then, Pierce jumped down from the side, knocked Ryan away on the floor, and poked the ball to Ray Allen, who was already running forward!
After just one battle for the ball, the two sides fought hard!
And this kind of scene is just the norm in the fourth quarter!
After Ryan stood up, he also deliberately bumped Pierce with his shoulder as he was about to get up, knocking him down again.
Again, the referee acquiesced to this action.
It seems that unless you hit someone directly today, the referee will lose if you blow the whistle!
While Ryan and Pierce were wrestling, Ray Allen had dribbled beyond the three-point line.
But after reaching beyond the three-point line, Junzi Lei hesitated.
At first, he wanted to pass to Garnett who had already cut to the basket, but when he saw Ben directly elbowing Garnett, who was originally in the position, unable to catch the ball, Ray Allen chose to take action directly.
At this point, the Celtics were only 2 points behind.
If this three-pointer hits, the Celtics will take the lead for the first time in this game!
But just as Junzi Lei took action, Ryan flew up from behind and slapped the ball away!
Ray Allen's eyes widened in disbelief. If I remember correctly, Ryan was pulled to the ground by KG just now, right?
How could he stand up again so quickly! ?
Why did you catch up and block the shot?
After Ray Allen's shot missed, he has made 1 of 7 shots today!
Under Ryan's defense, he only scored one sports goal today!
Finally, he got a chance to counterattack this time, but was unexpectedly caught up by Ryan.
For the first time, Ray Allen felt that it was really difficult to score a goal!
Difficult, it was very difficult for both sides to score in the fourth quarter.
The defense is tight, it is difficult to get free throw opportunities, and the shooting touch is exhausted by the fierce confrontation.
It is indeed too difficult to score points.
Marvin Albert can easily imagine this feeling of suffocation:
“So far in the fourth quarter, the Nuggets have scored 9 points and the Celtics have scored 8 points.
Ryan scored 6 of 9 points and now has 32 points.
At first glance, Ryan is just one step away from scoring his fourth consecutive 40-point game.
But with this kind of defense, it is not easy to score 8 points in the last five minutes of the game.
The Celtics were still lagging behind and missed another chance to equalize.
I really don't know how this game will end.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that this game will be a real test for the players on both sides!
Test whether they are really qualified to fight until the last minute of the playoffs! "
The basketball went out of bounds, the game entered the dead ball stage, and the players on the court were panting.
Everyone was breathing heavily and sweating profusely.
The confrontation in this game is a perseverance challenge for everyone.
The same is true for Ryan. Continuous high-intensity battles make people with abnormal physical abilities like him feel exhausted.
Beat the Warriors and get the buzzer beater in overtime.
Against the Lakers, they persisted until the last minute before finally taking the lead.
Today's game against the Celtics was due to the confrontation, which cost a lot of money.
Apart from anything else, Ryan's stamina bar was greatly reduced by getting up and chasing Ray Allen in such a short period of time after being dragged down.
Ryan's throat was so dry that it felt like his throat was being scraped with a knife when he breathed.
But these are not the most terrible things. The most terrible thing is that Ryan's shooting percentage did start to decline significantly in the fourth quarter.
He must continue to score steadily.
Otherwise, it is only a matter of time before the score is overtaken.
At this time, Bird rushed to the court and blew a hooligan whistle and made several gestures.
Bird knew after watching the first quarter that this game would be difficult, so he also took into account Ryan's failure to score in the fourth quarter.
Naturally, there are countermeasures.
Although this measure may not be implemented, it is the only way right now.
The game restarts and the Celtics attack.
In this round, Ray Allen rarely held the ball and played a pick-and-roll with Garnett.
This is mainly because Pierce is also a little out of sorts and needs to catch his breath.
Therefore, Junzilei is needed to help him digest some shooting rights.
Ray Allen immediately moved in the direction of the screen. Ryan was about to go around it, but when he squeezed through the screen, he was hit by Garnett secretly.
Although Ryan was not directly knocked down, he still staggered and lost track of his target.
Seeing this situation, Ben immediately changed defense. Ray Allen didn't hesitate and gave the ball to Garnett who was down the line!
Garnett held the ball and headed towards the basket, but just as he was about to start, he found Ryan immediately sticking to his side!
Ryan gritted his teeth. It was Garnett who had just dragged him down, and now he was deliberately hitting someone during the pick-and-roll.
He wants to take off the wolf's skin!
Garnett also knew that scoring opportunities were hard to come by, so this time he resolutely chose to rely on Ryan to attack the penalty area!
Garnett slammed into Ryan hard. After making a muffled "bang" sound, Garnett felt that he was almost bounced away!
In this fierce confrontation, Ryan had the upper hand!
Garnett was almost forced to stop, so he jumped up and tried to use his height advantage to throw the ball into the basket.
But Ryan pushed hard on the ground with both feet, using all his strength to quickly send his body into the air.
In the end, Ryan successfully blocked Garnett, and after completing the block, knocked Garnett to the ground!
After another successful defense after a fierce confrontation, although Ryan was very tired, his desire to win still prompted him to work hard for every defense!
“It was another back-and-forth play, and the two sides literally pulled each other’s hair and fought until the last few minutes of the fourth quarter tonight.
The current situation is like two crazy heavyweight boxers taking off their gloves, getting closer to each other less than one meter away, and fighting each other face to face!
There is no escape for both sides! Only use heavy blows to knock down the opponent! See whose bones are stronger! "
Indeed, this is the bloodiest regular season Bird has ever played in the Nuggets' three seasons as coach!
Ryan stopped the Celtics' attempt to take the lead again. Now, it is time to find a way to widen the point difference.
Just after Bird made the gesture, the Nuggets had already changed their strategy.
So this time when faced with the attack from the top line, Ryan still took a step back.
But instead of starting a breakthrough immediately, he passed the ball to Monta Ellis!
Before Pierce and KG could react, Ryan immediately cut in and passed between the two without the ball. At the same time, Ellis gave the ball to Ryan who got rid of the trap. Ryan got rid of the trap and got a chance to attack the frame!
Getting rid of the Celtics' perverted double-team without the ball is Bird's last resort!
This move is actually very dangerous, because Ryan may not be able to make a successful cut every time. Even if successful, Ellis may not be able to feed the ball to Ryan every time.
Don't forget that Garnett is also a master at stealing passes.
But at least this time, Ryan succeeded!
But he can't make a sudden stop to shoot a jumper, because once he stops, Garnett and Pierce will immediately catch up and continue to pinch him.
What's more, due to the fierce confrontation, Ryan's current shooting accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
Therefore, Ryan chose the simplest and crudest method.
Surrounded by players in green jerseys, he ran into the crowd without hesitation, and then, feeling severe pain, he jumped up for a layup with his covered arms!
Ryan's body was knocked crooked in the air, but he still relied on his greatly improved layup touch to hit the ball steadily even though he was out of balance and in severe pain all over his body!
"34 points! Ryan is a little closer to the 40 points he said!
Moreover, the Nuggets lead by 4 points!
This bloody tug-of-war is becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Celtics! "
Ryan lay on the ground and stood up with difficulty.
When playing against the Celtics and you break into the penalty area, don't expect to land smoothly after attacking the frame. The only difference is whether you fall hard or fall lightly.
But these pains are nothing now. Ryan only knows that he fucking succeeded in scoring!
So he stood up and roared in Garnett's face!
The lion of the Rocky Mountains makes even the Wolf King look a little more like a husky!
The Celtics now desperately need to score, but unfortunately, Pierce's long-range shot also bounced off the frame due to Artest's interference.
Even Ryan, a physical monster who started for 40 minutes every night, was sapped by this kind of confrontation.
Then let alone others.
And, although the Celtics are a tough team.
But their offensive style is very "soft", mostly focusing on long-range shots, and it is difficult to penetrate the opponent's penalty area!
Whenever Pierce encounters a guy like Artest who is evenly matched with him, it will be very difficult for Pierce to break through.
Ray Allen has been completely used as an off-ball shooter, and it is impossible to get inside.
Not to mention KG, he has always been a shooter who likes to float outside.
Many people may not believe it, but Rondo is often the one who scores the most points in the penalty area on the team.
Do you think it's really a random shouting?
This kind of offense makes it more difficult for the Celtics to open up the situation at critical moments!
After Pierce's shot, all the insiders waved their elbows and jumped up to fight for rebounds, but in the end no one was able to grab the ball.
The basketball was eventually hit to the mid-range by Ben and Garnett at the same time. Then Ryan and Pierce jumped up at the same time and collided heavily in the air.
In the end, Ryan knocked Pierce down again, and then pocketed the rebound!
There really wasn’t a single link today where no one fell down!
Ryan wanted to repeat his old trick and rely on air cuts to get rid of the Celtics' attack on the line.
But as Bird expected, this move was dangerous.
This time, when Ellis fed the ball to Ryan again, Garnett extended his arms in advance and stole the basketball directly from the side and behind!
The Celtics' defense is too strong. Once a certain trick is used once, they know how to deal with it.
You can't kill them directly with a certain move!
After completing the steal, Garnett immediately passed the ball to Pierce who was already running forward.
Pierce received the basketball steadily and then went straight for an empty layup!
Damn it, I should be able to score this time! I want to see how difficult it is to score a goal in a basketball game!
"boom!"
As soon as Pierce thought of this, the basketball was blown away, hit the backboard hard and then rebounded.
Then a huge force hit Pierce, knocking him down again!
"Ryan! God, terrifying pursuit, another block!
First, he blocked Ray Allen's open three-pointer from behind, and now he blocked Pierce's fast break layup from behind.
He made it extremely difficult for the Celtics to score even one goal!
Tonight, Ryan perfectly interprets the word tough! "
Marvin Albert's hair stood on end, Ryan's blockade was simply airtight!
Boston fans felt shivers down their spines. This season, their defense has been disappointing to their opponents.
This is the first time that the opponent's defense has turned them into despair!
After completing the block, Ryan also held on to the basketball stand and took a few breaths.
Another wave of sprints just now made Ryan's already stretched physical fitness even worse.
But when he looked down and saw Pierce who was even more embarrassed, he immediately laughed:
"I'm 6 points away from 40 points, what about you? You seem to be 30 points away, Paul!
Come on, don't let yourself become a joke! "
Pierce fell to the ground and beat the floor reluctantly.
Now, let alone beating the Nuggets by 14 points, the gap of only 4 points is indelible!
In this round, Ryan continued to use the cutting method to break the flanking attack.
But instead of giving the ball to Ellis again, he gave it to Millsap.
Garnett quickly returned to Millsap, and Millsap also planned to pass the ball over Garnett's head to Ryan.
It can only be said that Millsap is still inexperienced. This kind of ball cannot be passed from the top of Garnett's head.
Garnett just raised his arm and destroyed the pass!
Although he failed to catch the basketball directly, he still pushed the ball to the baseline!
Millsap subconsciously wanted to regain control of the ball, but he poked the ball with his fingertips, further sending the ball flying out of bounds!
Celtics fans and players breathed a sigh of relief as they finally defended the Nuggets again.
But in the next second, Millsap saved the whole baseline. The spectators behind the basketball hoop fled, and the chairs behind them were smashed into a mess by Millsap.
He lay on the ground with his teeth bared, suffering all the pain on his flesh and skin.
but.
The basketball was saved by the tough Arizona forward and returned to Ryan's hands!
Ryan was under the basket at this time. He hit Perkins hard sideways, and then jumped directly on the spot. Across Perkins, who also jumped, he completed a strong jump dunk on the spot!
With 36 points in a single game, Ryan was only 4 points away from scoring 40 points in North Shore Garden!
Moreover, the Nuggets already lead by 6 points!
The balance of victory is tilting towards the defending champion!
After Ryan completed the dunk, he immediately stepped out of bounds and pulled Millsap up.
"Well done!"
"To the best of my ability, sir!"
Immediately afterwards, the referee's whistle blew.
Rivers suspended the game in despair!
The timeout was very short, but it felt extremely long to Boston fans.
They are all worried that Ryan will really win at North Shore Garden!
They are worried that even if they form the Big Three, they are still no match for the Nuggets!
That damn Paul Millsap, with 16 points and 9 rebounds today, is as tough as a fucking wild boar!
In fact, Millsap's nickname in college was Boar!
As Ryan expected, Millsap impressed the fans at North Shore Garden in his first career start.
But no matter how impressive he is, Millsap is at best an accomplice.
The real culprit, Ryan, must be stopped!
But how did Rivers stop Ryan?
On the Celtics bench, Doc Donald Rivers yelled in his Donald Duck voice:
"Hold on! Our suffering is only temporary, and victory is not far away!"
Thibodeau: Okay, okay, what the hell are you talking about during the timeout, right?
Well, it’s not like Rivers made no adjustments.
In order to further strengthen the defense, Rivers even replaced Rondo with Tony Allen!
organize? What a waste of organization!
He will use his invincible defense to completely block Ryan's goal!
In the first defensive round after returning from the timeout, Rivers succeeded.
When Ryan faced a double attack and wanted to pass the ball to Ellis, Teacher Tony, who was in danger, suddenly rushed out and intercepted the ball midway!
The Celtics took this opportunity and started to counterattack again. This time Pierce learned the lesson. After running to the basket, he did not lay up directly, but left the ball to Junzi Lei who followed up.
Ryan, who jumped up to chase Pierce, missed the opportunity. When Ryan turned back, it was too late to stop Ray Allen and he could only watch as he hit a layup.
At this point, the Celtics were only 4 points behind in the last 1 minute and 48 seconds of the game!
They still have a chance!
At this moment, the two teams were really fighting to the death.
Bird's final method of breaking double teams without the ball has failed twice.
The Celtics can only rely on this counterattack opportunity to score.
In the cold winter of December, the battle in the North Shore Garden was so hot that it made people breathless.
After Ray Allen scored, Ryan did not run back immediately. Instead, he put his hands on his knees and took two more breaths.
Boston's Big Three, a historically strong defensive team, are really hard to beat!
The Big Three of 07-08 and the Big Three of 08-09 were originally their strongest forms.
The Big Three that the Lakers won after were the Big Three after Garnett had fallen.
The defense of the Big Three at that time was no longer so scary.
The reason why the Big Three did not advance to the Finals in 2009 was because Garnett was missing.
Therefore, in the original history, the top three who had no injuries and no decline had never lost.
But in this history, Ryan had to steal the victory from the top three giants!
You can imagine how difficult it is.
Bird has coached the Nuggets for three seasons, and this is the first time he has seen Ryan so tired.
But Bird still believed in him.
He firmly believes that great players can always perform great in desperate situations!
After Ryan took a few breaths, he continued to run forward.
This time, Ryan faced a double attack on the line and stepped on the three-point line to shoot a long 2-pointer.
As expected, the ball didn't go in.
At this time, Ryan faced the same dilemma as Kobe Bryant in the previous game, that is, the jump shot they were proud of no longer worked when they were physically exhausted.
At this time, how to continue to score?
But fortunately, because Garnett was too forward to double attack, there was one less person inside to grab rebounds.
Ben then seized the opportunity to grab the offensive rebound, then jumped up and made another layup!
It's a pity that under the interference of Perkins, Omoto took off for a layup but failed to score the ball. He was quite like a princess.
However.
Ryan stood out from the crowd and jumped high and once again grabbed the offensive rebound!
Then he also took off for a layup, and was also tightly defended.
But unlike Ben, Ryan's layup was a solid hit!
The point difference returned to 6 points, and Ryan scored 38 points in a single game!
Although he was stumbling, even though he was dragged into the quagmire by the Celtics.
But Ryan can always carry the team forward a little bit, and then a little bit further!
Ryan gasped and yelled at Pierce: "You fucking stop me! I'm about to score 40 points!"
Although Ryan is tired, he will never bow his head! Even very rampant!
The Celtics are 6 points behind again, and the morale of the Celtics has begun to be affected.
What's even worse is that Junzi Lei's three-pointer after receiving the ball was once again blocked by Ryan's defense!
I thought that after Ryan was exhausted, the speed of pursuing defense might be affected, so the Celtics deliberately searched for Ray Allen's point in this round of offense.
The Celtics' prediction is good. Ryan's physical fitness does affect his pursuit speed.
But despite being affected, Ryan was still able to interfere with Junzi Lei with his wingspan advantage!
Junzi Lei's hand was not good today, but he was disturbed by Ryan's face, so he got another one!
In this era when Internet slang is just emerging, it is estimated that tomorrow’s newspapers in China will write like this: "Gentleman Lei, really shocking!"
Ever since, the Celtics were on the verge of destruction!
If the defense fails again in this round, the Nuggets will be able to narrow the point difference to 8 points.
The game is basically sealed!
With the Celtics' current offense, it is impossible for them to recover 8 points in one minute!
However, if the Nuggets want to score, how easy is it?
Ryan was able to score just now, mainly because of his second offensive opportunity through active fighting.
The previous attempts failed.
But second offensive opportunities cannot always be available, and it is impossible for Ryan to continue to bet on long-range shots.
So this time after encountering a double attack on the line, Ryan passed the ball to Millsap.
But Garnett still did not give up the game. He squeezed out the last of his physical energy and actively returned to Millsap, leaving Millsap without a chance to take action.
In desperation, Millsap returned the ball to Ryan.
But as soon as Ryan caught the ball, Garnett waved his arms and attacked.
It is indeed the most terrifying assisting defense monster in history!
Ryan has no choice and now has nowhere to pass.
Millsap is highly locked by the Wolf King, and passing it to him is of no use now.
Monta Ellis is being stared at by Tony Allen, and the pass to him may even be missed.
Play key balls for Artest? Not stable either.
As for Da Ben, passing it on to him is tantamount to committing suicide.
Therefore, Ryan can only solve the problem on his own!
No matter how difficult it is, he must shoulder this responsibility!
This season, the Nuggets' team offensive capabilities have been greatly reduced.
The reason why he can survive until now is because Ryan's personal offensive ability has been greatly enhanced.
That being the case
Then use your personal abilities to save the team again!
Ryan blasted the ball backwards, gaining a bit of sprint distance. For a moment, both Garnett and Pierce knew that Ryan wanted to break through!
Sure enough, in the next second, Ryan accelerated to the left like crazy, trying to get rid of Pierce and Garnett.
But first of all, Pierce and KG did not push too hard this time. Instead, they kept a distance from Ryan, so they would not be passed by Ryan in one step.
Secondly, as Ryan's physical fitness declined, so did his speed.
Therefore, Ryan could no longer easily break through the flanking attack.
Although he rushed all the way to the right side of the basket near the baseline, Pierce and Garnett were still close behind!
Ryan suddenly stopped after reaching the right side of the basket and raised the basketball.
Pierce jumped up to interfere, but Garnett was very careful and just stretched his long arms to block it.
Sure enough, Ryan just made a fake shot!
He shook Pierce away, but failed to shake Garnett away!
But Ryan had no choice. The 24 seconds of attack time were running out.
Ryan could only jump up in front of Garnett and force a mid-range shot!
Garnett's reaction was half a beat too slow. He didn't expect Ryan to dare to take action even though he was completely covered.
Therefore, he could not jump up in time and could not completely interfere with Ryan.
But even so, this shot is very difficult to hit, and it is a forced shot.
Ryan can't make the shot!
The moment the basketball was thrown, Ryan couldn't see where the basket was.
This breakthrough was a failure and did not allow him to get out of the slightest space. Ryan did make a strong shot in the end.
Even Denver fans and Chinese fans felt that this offense could not succeed.
However, the basketball was stunned after it hit the right side of the basket.
Falling steadily into the center of the net!
After Ryan failed to dribble past Pierce and Garnett, he was still under tight defense and relied on his ultimate personal ability to score the most critical goal!
The Nuggets lead to 8 points.
And Ryan.
"40 points for the game! 40 points!
The first player to score 40 points in North Shore Garden this season!
Just as he said, he raised a fire and burned this place down!
He himself is the fire! "
Ryan just tried his best to take off, using as much height and speed as possible to avoid interference, and completed the shot the moment before Garnett interfered with him.
Unexpectedly, I actually made this shot!
Ryan was also extremely excited after scoring the goal. He knew that he had nailed these damn green demons!
So, Ryan ran to the sidelines, grabbed his jersey, and yelled ferociously at the Boston fans who had been rude to him before the game:
“I’m a big fucking problem in the league!
If you mess with me, you'll be in big fucking trouble!
champion? How many championships can you win!
The championship belongs to Denver, poor green bastards! "
Faced with Ryan's arrogant provocation, the Boston fans who had uttered obscenities before the game were so stunned that they couldn't say a word.
The most suffocating North Shore Garden, tonight, is not as scary as Ryan!
