Chapter 1540 Fighting the Raptors Again
Celtics against the Raptors, the task before the game is to win!
Halfway through the regular season, as long as they can win against a strong team now, even the Celtics need this kind of psychological advantage now.
After all, no one likes to have trouble making it to the playoffs.
If you work harder now, the playoffs will be smooth sailing!
As for the Raptors.
Their thinking can be said to be similar to that of the Celtics. They lost to the Celtics in the last game, and they also need to improve their confidence.
Now.
As players from both sides appeared in the arena, the fans were still full of enthusiasm and gave them warm cheers.
As for boos.
Sorry, with the current market conditions of the Celtics, no need!
It's kind of a shame to do that.
players bench.
Qin Tao and Durant communicated, as if they were discussing how to kill the Raptors.
Others are also communicating constantly, obviously fully prepared.
Right.
They also have a few days off.
Compared with before, his physical condition has recovered by at least [-]%.
The pre-match process went through a bit, and then it was the starting lineup.
The Celtics haven't changed, and neither have the Raptors.
The lineups of the two sides are almost the same as last time, and it depends on who is stronger in the real fight.
jump ball.
Qin Tao didn't give the Raptors any chance at all. He seemed to be more serious and won easily.
Isiah Thomas received the ball and advanced, and when he came to the frontcourt, he organized it.
Since the last game, Thomas Jr. has come back.
Now that Qin Tao and Durant have not been given the first time, it can be seen that he has also shouldered the responsibility he should have.
Under Thomas Jr.'s combing, it feels like Qin Tao and the others are playing with ease.
And it feels more layered.
The Raptors' defense seemed a little anxious, and they seemed to want to fight very much, but it was because of the Celtics' running that they couldn't succeed.
However, when the Celtics' tactics came down, they suddenly discovered that it wasn't that they couldn't play what they wanted, but that the Celtics really didn't give them a chance.
They wanted to go to the confrontation but failed. The Celtics wanted to go to the confrontation, starting directly from Qin Tao and Durant!
Especially Qin Tao on the inside.
Even if he faced Valanciunas after switching positions, his physical confrontation was very tough!
This is not.
Under Durant's involvement, Qin Tao's offense can be described as smooth and smooth.
I saw that he caught the time difference of Valanciunas, and he completed the dunk with one turn.
This immediately aroused the emotions of the fans at the scene, but just at the beginning, one by one began to be excited.
Easy to fight again.
The Raptors' style of play is solid.
One by one, they tried their best to control the rhythm in their own hands. When they came to the frontcourt, they came precisely because of the cut-off time.
Half court battle.
This is the tactic the Raptors are most familiar with.
With Coach Casey's coaching style and system, if you play too fast, you will be scolded.
DeRozan and Lowry, one of them is the main attack point, and the other is the team's tactics.
As for the other three, their role on the field is very clear. Valanciunas is a senior blue-collar, Patrick Patterson is a mobile insider, and DeMarre Carroll needless to say, his task is to defend Durant.
However, when attacking, their division of labor is also quite clear.
Varan mainly guarantees the rebounding and pick-and-roll work inside, and Patterson uses his mobility to try to pull Qin Tao out of the inside.
Carroll's task is also quite simple. He seems to have a strong defense, but offense is often underestimated.
so.
The Raptors' ability to achieve this record is entirely due to their clear division of labor.
at the moment.
In order to allow DeRozan and Lowry to play a good offense, the three of them can be said to have completely become tool people, just to open up an easier situation for these two.
But their idea is very good, but unfortunately the Celtics don't give them many opportunities.
resignedly.
Because of the strong defense of the Celtics, the Raptors had to play core tactics.
DeRozan simply faced Avery Bradley. If he went directly to Durant as in the previous game, his core point would be abolished.
Now.
Avery Bradley has already started close defense, and with this defensive skill, he can make up for his lack of height.
DeRozan's strength and physical condition, except for his height, are actually not much different.
But talent is the most annoying thing. DeRozan's offense is really powerful, and he easily scored two points with a turnaround jumper.
As some professionals have said, if DeRozan can practice his mid-range and long-distance to the elite level, then his achievements are really more than that.
Next.
Because of DeRozan's shooting percentage, the Raptors have not fallen behind too much.
However, Qin Tao's first performance has planted a big hidden danger for them.
As time went by, they had to use two people to manage Qin Tao.
But Qin Tao is not alone in the Celtics. Isn't there a great god on the outside line?
Carroll's defense is good, but not good enough to limit Durant.
So when the first quarter hit the last 30 seconds, Durant made an unreasonable three-pointer, which widened the point difference to eleven points at that time.
30: 19.
The Celtics got off to a good start in the first quarter, which directly put tremendous pressure on the Raptors.
Before the game, they decided to win the game no matter what, but as the game really started, they found that their thoughts were still a little naive.
That's right into the second quarter.
Having played many times before, the Raptors felt that they had to fight hard.
The reason is very simple.
Their bench lineup is really not as good as the Celtics!
This is not self-deprecating, but something recognized by the entire league!
No team thought their second unit was better than the Celtics.
Because the Celtics have not only David West and Amir Johnson on the bench, but also fierce men like Jaylen Brown and Jack Crowder.
They have told everyone in the previous game that they are enough to take on all the tasks of the second team!
And it ended up being pretty good.
at the moment.
The problem facing the Raptors is not small, but if they don't use more starters, they still can't play this game.
So the starter can't take care of the second half, and the starter can't play and can't beat the Celtics' second team. It's really uncomfortable to die!
After all, the game has four quarters of 48 minutes!
If the arrangement is not smooth, there will be almost no accidents in the result.
soon.
As the second teams of the two teams entered the field, the fans in the stands began to cheer.
Honestly.
The growth of Jaylen Brown has really delighted the home fans.
Because this young man is fierce enough to play, and his personal ability is not weak, it is hard to justify not being liked by fans.
