Chapter 338 Superhero style play!
With Iverson's super three-pointer into the basket, Philadelphia's home court is boiling again!
Every spectator felt that it was worth the ticket price and was proud of his actions to come to watch the game!
Our team hasn't given up! They haven't lost yet!
So as fans, we can't give up, and it's far from the time to surrender!
"AI! AT! AI!"
"AI! AT! AI!"
The fans at the scene cheered and sent their heartfelt shouts to their heroes.
Iverson stood in the center of the court, with one hand stuck to his ear, enjoying the cheers of the fans. The uncontrollable tiredness seemed to be no longer so obvious because of the cheering of the fans.
In the first quarter, Iverson scored 24 points and even suppressed Lin Long in scoring.
As for the team, the 76ers also led the Celtics by 3 points into the second quarter at 33:30.
And these 3 points are actually the 76ers' highest leading score since this round of the series!
Still a whole section!
From this, we can actually see the difference in the strength of the two teams and why the fans are so happy.
Their team is still fighting for their dignity!
The second quarter of the game started quickly.
Iverson did not rest. After playing the first quarter, he continued to appear in the second quarter. Facing the substitutes such as Barkley, Bowen and Aaron, Iverson was even more slaughtering. In just 2 minutes, he scored 7 points in a row, and the score gap between the two sides is about to be in double digits.
Lin Long on the sidelines could not sit still for a long time, he stood up again to fight Bird.
In fact, as early as the first quarter break, Lin Long told Bird that he didn't need a break and could continue to play, because Lin Long was very sure that Iverson would never take a break!
But Bird rejected Lin Long with a smile.
You can't be on the court every second, he told Lin Long, and your teammates need to get used to your absence.
But when Iverson scored consecutive points from inside and outside, Lin Long couldn't help but stand up.
This time, it was Barkley who blocked Lin Long.
Barkley shouted directly at Lin Long: "Sit down, Lin! Now is not your time, leave the game to us first! Don't forget that I was once the pride of this city, and I also have something to prove!"
Barkley's words successfully put Lin Long back in his chair, and he believed in Barkley.
Also willing to let Barkley prove how wrong Philadelphia's decision to send him was!
The game in the first half of the second quarter became the protection of Barkley and Iverson. The two were reincarnated like elves, twitching and moving, butterflies wearing flowers.
The other is like a crazy rhino, constantly hitting the 76ers' defense with his horns.
In this half of the game, the two sides failed to pull the score, the 76ers still maintained a 7-point lead, but the bad news was that Ratliff got his third foul.
In the second half, the foul problem of the 76ers will become more and more serious.
At this time, Bird finally waved his hand and sent Lin Long, who had been fighting for a long time, to the court again.
Lin Long stood by Iverson's side immediately and said:
"I don't mean to take advantage of you, it's my guys who don't think I need to keep targeting you on the court 々々!
"up to you!"
Iverson was panting heavily, he had entered his own state and space at this time, and half of what Lin Long said, he could not hear clearly.
Score! Score! Score!
This is the only word left in Iverson's head.
With Lin Long and other Celtics main players returning to the court, the Celtics immediately launched a strong counterattack. Lin Long himself took the lead in hitting the 3-point line!
Then he pressed Iverson's shot on the defensive end, and the fast-break one-stop dunk succeeded!
As soon as Lin Long returned to the court, he made continuous contributions on both ends of the offense and defense, reducing the score to 2 points.
After Iverson was taken, he didn't feel the slightest annoyance. Facing Lin Long this time, he directly called two people to pick and roll for him.
High double cover!
This is a play that the 76ers rarely used in previous games, but now they have taken it out to deal with Lin Long and provide comfortable shot space for Iverson!
Iverson overcame Lin Long's defense and rushed directly to the basket, directly to Big Ben who was under the basket, and then he threw himself into the sky regardless, and hit Big Ben.
After the collision, I went to find the space and angle of the shot.
This almost fatal suicidal play, once again Iverson won two free throws.
Seeing the Evergreen who fell to the ground again, but quickly got up and walked tremblingly towards the free throw line, Lin Long couldn't help but feel a sense of respect in his mind.
This is respect for the brave people who sail against the current and know they can't do it.
This is respect for the unyielding warrior, the brave boy!
After 2 free throws, the 76ers lead again to 4 points.
Iverson continued that play for the rest of the second quarter!
He didn't want to spend too much physical strength on Lin Long, and kept using screens to bypass Lin Long's offense. The good touch continued until the end of this quarter. Under the leadership of Iverson, the 76ers also took them The lead was maintained until the end of halftime.
Although only 2 points, but leading is leading!
In the first half of the game, Iverson played 24 minutes, made 11 of 19 free throws and 12 free throws, and scored 38 points and 5 rebounds.
Lin Long played 19 minutes, 10 of 17 shots, 4 of 5 3-pointers, 8 of 8 free throws, and scored 32 points.
The confrontation between the two supernovas made all fans enjoy watching.
At the same time, the fighting power of the 76ers in the desperate situation also allowed everyone to express their full affirmation of the toughness of this young team.
Everyone knows that I underestimated the 76ers.
The game continued in the second half. This time, Lin Long's defense against Iverson was even tighter! He almost stuck to Iverson's body. The two were as inseparable as conjoined twins. Prying the two apart, Lin Long will inevitably go around the front when he encounters a screen, which makes the 76ers screen useless. Even when the inside line is screened, Big Ben or Rasheed will take the opportunity to rush out of the inside line and attack Ai. Fossen formed a double-team.
This move, once again curbed the chance of Iverson's shot, but also allowed the 76ers' offense to stagnate.
In Lin Long's first attack in the second half, he used a 2+1 break from the basket to overtake the score.
Also caused Ratliff's fourth foul.
The 76ers inside general, foul problem more and more serious.
After thinking about it, 76ers coach Larry Brown did not send a backup inside player, but let the team's number one general on the bench, Larry Hughes, go into battle and play big and four.
Since the team's defense is already riddled with holes, let's just fight!
Let the young and fast Hughes and Iverson rush together to see if they can rush the game back.
After the fact, Brown's choice became the turning point of the game.
Hughes had a bad touch tonight. No matter how he shot, he couldn't get the basketball into the hoop. The 76ers, who lacked an inside post, not only gave Iverson a sharp drop in the quality of his cover, but also made Iverson play harder. (Is Zhao Hao) It was difficult, and he completely lost control of the rebound.
In this section, the number of rebounds between the two sides is a terrible 15:5.
The 76ers' rebounds were completely ripped off!
The rebound was lost, and Iverson's fast attack was naturally completely unable to play. Iverson, who was caught in a positional battle, lost his offensive touch in the first half, and quickly consumed his physical strength in hand-to-hand fights, even if Sometimes he can hit free throws, but more often, Iverson's offense has failed.
On the other hand, the Celtics controlled the rebound.
The entire perimeter shooter group has gained great confidence, even if they can't make the shot, the teammates have the rebound.
With this belief, everyone's shooting is more decisive, and everyone's offense is more confident!
This is the trust and tacit understanding that the team has cultivated over the past year!
In this section of the game, although Iverson relied on free throws to get 15 points again, but he was only 2 of 7 shots, completely lost the accuracy.
Under this circumstance, the 76ers were once again caught in a quagmire. In this quarter, they were beaten 33:21 by the Celtics, not only overtaking the score, but also being pulled away by 10 points!
