This sentence of Coach Du has been fulfilled again and again in the NBA playoffs.
"20 points, that's a fart!"
Eastern Conference Semifinals Game2.
Unexpectedly, the Celtics were once again reversed by the Knicks with a 20-point lead at home.
The 20-point lead in two consecutive games was reversed, setting a record in NBA playoff history.
Hart had 23 points and six rebounds, Towns had 21 points and 17 rebounds, Brunson had 17 points and seven assists, and Bridges had 14 points, seven rebounds and five assists.
For the Celtics, White had 20 points, nine rebounds and five assists, Brown had 20 points and six rebounds, Tatum had 13 points, 14 rebounds and five assists, and Holiday had 10 points and five assists.
There have been six 20-point reversals in this year's playoffs, including two for the Pacers and two for the Knicks, both of which have become the only teams in playoff history to have multiple 20+ reversals in one year.
These two "dog" teams that are not favored are going to "tear up the triumph ride"?
Let's put an interesting picture:
In the divisional semifinals, six games have been played so far, and the away team has a 6-0 record, and the top three teams in the league, the Cavaliers and Celtics, have both lost home-court advantage.
Today's Thunder has a high probability of saving face for the home team and playing a 1-1 game. (Ongoing, OKC leads by 30 points.) )
The pseudo-strong team that was ridiculed by the outside world in the regular season has already won two games in North Shore Garden, and the Green Army has also been forced to the edge of the cliff, and the two games are almost exactly the same script.
The defending champions started to get sick after leading by 20 points and couldn't play?
So the question is, who is to blame?
This kind of game, you blame old Horford for not playing, it is meaningless.
I have to ask first: Have the two big brothers, who have enjoyed flowers and applause, done a good job?
Tatum, played 42 minutes in the game, only 5 of 19 shots, got 13 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals, and in the final moment of the final round, he dribbled into the pile and was stealed.
The lore round is a hammer deal, and it's over with a jump shot, Tutu's offensive choice... It can only be said that it is too abstract.
As a star, the ability to read the game is too poor, if you choose the middle distance, even if you don't score...
Jaylen Brown, 8-of-23, plus six turnovers.
The combined performance of the two of them is not as good as Mr. Tang + Hart... So this ball is not unjust.
In this game, the Celtics shot only 10 of 40 three-pointers, while G1 shot 15 of 60, and the two games combined 25 of 100, with a shooting rate of 25%.
It's a far cry from the level of the regular season, the playoffs and the regular season, two different things.
In the past, the Green Army relied on three-point killing, but now the three-point shot kills itself...
Going to New York with a big score of 0-2 to play away, the most important thing is not technology and tactics.
It's about losing both games in this way, how do players regain their confidence mentally.
Tatum is not an athlete with a lot of mental hardness...
The Knicks became the sixth team in NBA history to be swept in the regular season but lead 2-0 on the road in the playoffs.
As I said before, Thibodeau's team has never been an attack-oriented team. However, they will pull the game into the mud with high-intensity defense and rebounding.
If you fight to the key round, the temperament of the big head is not worth it at all.
The Knicks' offense isn't advanced, but after a series of tweaks, their more high-level, hard-hitting forward group is geared up to beat the Celtics.
Downs, gummy becomes hard candy, if he has a 20+10 play in every game, then the Big Apple is not afraid of any opponent this season.
Anunoby, the last offense was opened, and although the offense was sparse today, the defense of the double tanhua was really good, and Tatum was a little out of balance...
Then, there's the winner of the game, Bridges.
He didn't score 0-of-8 in the first three quarters, but he woke up in the final quarter to score 14 points and block Tatum's final offense.
In 43 minutes, he shot 6-of-18 from the field and 2-of-8 from three-point range, scoring 14 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 steals, helping the team complete a big comeback.
As for why you were 20 points behind before, don't ask...
G1 grabbed Brown, G2 blocked Tatum, and he can be called the "Green Army Terminator".
The Nets' first-round pick, but they don't want much at all, right?
