Tang Shuai held the ball and advanced forward.({[[[[[[?]]

At this moment, he noticed that Stevens on the sidelines gave him a strange look.

It was a longing look, and a confident look, as if saying: Look, you didn't come to my team. If you come, I can make you the first person in the league.

Tang Shuai glanced at him and then focused his eyes on the court.

Compared with offense, defense is a stronger weapon for the Celtics. As soon as the Lakers players fell, they were strictly guarded by the opponents.

Tang Shuai asked his teammates to run, but in the end he didn't run out of any offensive space. He looked up at the timing. Before the Celtics could adjust their formation, he changed his mind and rushed to the basket.

The one who defends him is Bradley, the league's top outside defender, and the player in the top purple defensive bag.

Tang Shuai did not get rid of his direction twice, and the fans at the scene suddenly burst into cheers.

Stevens also stood up from the sidelines excitedly. As a coach, he admired Tang Shuai very much. As an opponent, he also attached great importance to Tang Shuai. If Bradley could lock Tang Shuai alone, the probability of the team winning would increase exponentially.

He thought so, but for the next second, he was stunned, and then smiled helplessly.

Tang Shuai dribbled behind the back and followed a quick stop to pull out. Bradley caught off guard and completely lost his defensive direction.

With a "swish", Tang Shuai got rid of Bradley and hit the ball steadily.

The fans at the scene were in an uproar. They didn't expect Bradley to defend so well, and Tang Shuai could get a mobile phone and make a easy hit.

The Celtics' offense was defended by the Lakers. Tang Shuai came back to his senses and beat Bradley to one-on-one. He dribbled under his crotch and turned around. He squeezed past Bradley and then sent the ball lightly into the basket again.

Bradley clapped his hands in annoyance, and it was obvious that he was not defended for two consecutive rounds, which made him feel a little depressed.

Stevens reacted quickly. After seeing Bradley unable to defend himself, he immediately got up and walked to the sidelines.

With the Celtics' offense, Thomas flew to pick up the ball and sent the ball into the basket. His height of 1.75 meters made his degree look like a flash of lightning when he broke through. Batum, who was defending him, reached out to make a fuss.

Looking back, Stevens immediately made a defensive gesture to the team, and the team then shrank its defense.

His adjustments were quite timely, but Tang Shuai was not stupid either. Seeing the defense in front of him, he immediately asked Gasol to come out to do a pick-and-roll. After blocking him, he would give Gasol a quick breakup.

Very similar to Horford in front, Gasol raised his hand and made two long jump shots after receiving the ball at a high position.

With a "swish", even the result was similar to Horford, and the basketball fell steadily into the basket.

6-4, the two teams played a similar game at the beginning.

"Kenny, I seem to have regained the feeling of watching the Purple and Gold Army fight against the Celtics." In the comment seat, Barkley turned to Smith and said, saying that he explained the 16-year game and witnessed too many duels between the Lakers and the Celtics. When he saw the revival of the two teams, he was also very moved.

"Charles, you are not the kind of person who is prone to feeling emotion. It is said that always feeling emotion will make people turn around. If you don't believe it, you can touch your head." Smith said.

Charles reached out and touched his head. After touching his naked head, he burst out laughing. He accidentally said Smith.

"Kenny, it's easy for you to have no friends like this." Barkley said to Smith after he recalled.

"Oh, OK, Charles, we are forever good friends, but we still focus on the live game. Who do you think will win the game today?" Smith continued.

"Let me see." Barkley said, taking out his cell phone, searching as if it were true, and saying while searching, "Wait for me, I will know the answer immediately."

"Don't do this. Let me tell me what you are doing for God's sake?" Smith couldn't help but turn around and look.

Barkley protected his phone as if there was a secret. After a while, he spoke: "In the past 21 years, the Lakers and the Celtics have played 11 times in the Finals, and the Celtics have won 8 of them. Well, it is obvious that the Celtics have the advantage, but because this is not the playoffs, the Lakers are more likely to win the game."

Barkley said it seriously, Smith listened carefully, and after hearing what he said, he immediately smiled and leaned back and forth.

The two people in the commentary seat kept making fun of each other, but the game on the court had entered a white-hot stage.

Under the leadership of Tang Shuai, the Lakers played concisely, but their success rate was not too high.

Stevens is constantly making adjustments to the defensive end. Once Tang Shuai attacks, he shrinks the basket. The Lakers' outside three-pointers are indeed not very reliable, which leads to a greatly reduced success rate. When Tang Shuai does not break through and starts to throw a three-pointer, he lets the team expand the defense and prevents the Lakers from getting a relaxed opportunity to make a mobile phone.

In the first quarter, in this defensive change of contraction and expansion, the Celtics took the initiative on the field, and at the end of the quarter, they led by 9 points 25-16.

Tang Shuai was observing the competition between substitutes off the court. It has to be said that compared to Walton, Stevens is indeed more of a good idea. He is like a top chef. Whether it is a substitute, he can always cook a good dish.

After the second quarter began, Tang Shuai finally met Zhou Qi amid the cheers of the fans at the scene.

He is still so thin, his face is full of youth, and he doesn't change much during the Olympics. However, he greets people around him when he comes on the court, and even Horford even pats him on the butt. He should have gotten along well with his teammates in the Celtics.

In the Lakers' offense, Clarkson handed the ball to Landry to play a low single. Landry used his solid footsteps under the basket and steady down-set strength to squeeze out Zhou Qi and hit the ball into the basket.

Zhou Qi wanted to seal the cover, but he couldn't reach it after being squeezed open.

The fans at the scene booed sporadically, and they were also yellow-skinned. Zhou Qi was obviously not treated much better than Tang Shuai and Jeremy Lin. If they performed poorly, they would be disliked by fans.

In the Celtics' offense, Smart gave a second pass, and Jerebko received the ball and made a layup. The tactics were completed quite beautifully, but when he was about to make a layup, Azeri intercepted the ball. In terms of strength confrontation, Jerebko was too unattended.

The Lakers' offense, Clarkson crossed and gave Stephenson. Stephenson swayed in a cross, and suddenly broke into the basket, getting rid of James Young's defensive layup.

As soon as the second quarter came, the Lakers played a 4-to-o offensive, and the score difference was immediately chased to 5 points.

"Swap Zhou Qi!" Some fans shouted loudly from the sidelines, more than one person shouting intermittently.

Tang Shuai frowned. The fans at the scene really didn't give him any face.

He looked at Zhou Qi again, and his face changed.

After all, I am still young and have no rich experience in competition, so emotional fluctuations can easily affect my swings.

Sure enough, in an attack by the Celtics, Zhou Qi received a pass from Smart from the basket and got up and dunked. However, he got up too early and directly collided with Landry, and the two of them rolled to the ground together.

The whistle of the referee on the sideline sounded, and Zhou Qi made an offensive foul.

There were suddenly a lot of booing sounds at the scene. I don’t know if it was the referee or Zhou Qi’s performance.

Stevens immediately called for a pause.

"Tang, your Chinese guy seems to be struggling a little." Stephenson saw Zhou Qi's appearance and said when he got up, he took a photo of Tang Shuai.

Tang Shuai smiled bitterly, then continued to look at the field. Zhou Qi's ability should be more than that.

After returning from the timeout, Zhou Qi was still on the court, which immediately caused a burst of dissatisfaction among the fans.

For the Lakers' offense, Landry received a pass from Clarkson and took a three-step slow layup. Perhaps he easily squeezed away Zhou Qi, but this time he didn't do anything, jumped up and sent the ball to the basket.

Zhou Qi seized the opportunity this time, and saw that Landry was not well protected, so he jumped up from behind and shot the ball from him.

The block was quite powerful. After the basketball fell, it hit Randall's knee and then directly pushed out of bounds. The Celtics' ball rights!

Zhou Qi waved his fist vigorously, and it was obvious that he had been holding it in for a long time for this.

However, the reaction at the scene was still ridiculous. Obviously, in the eyes of the fans, a simple block cannot vent their dissatisfaction.

In the Celtics' offense, Smart and Jaylen Brown cooperated. They originally wanted to pass the ball back to Brown to shoot, but when they turned around, they saw Brewer's assisting defense was very timely. In the midst of lightning, his talent was aroused. After he took off, he found that Zhou Qi had originally pulled to the pick-and-roll outside the three-point line and gave the ball with a long throw.

After receiving the ball, Zhou Qi got an open three-pointer opportunity. Without hesitation, he directly shot.

There was a lot of restlessness at the scene, and they didn't expect that Zhou Qi would dare to shoot a ball like this.

"Swish!"

With a crisp sound, the basketball drew a beautiful curve in the air and fell into the net bag accurately!

Zhou Qi's three-pointer, go in!

"Oh, your Chinese guy is doing really well!" Stephenson shouted excitedly.

After hitting a three-pointer, Zhou Qi was not too excited. He reached out and patted his chest hard, then turned around and retreated.

After seeing this, Tang Shuai nodded. This is how the ball should be played. Not to mention anything else, just this ball means that the Celtics have a good talent in drafting and Zhou Qi is indeed worth cultivating.

Just when Tang Shuai thought so, a burst of cheers suddenly came from the scene.

The Lakers' offense was intercepted by Smart, and Zhou Qi followed behind to attack quickly. When he was about to reach the frontcourt, Smart pushed Clarkson with his body against him, and a pass from behind was sent to him. After he jumped up, he dunked the ball into the basket with both hands.

After the dunk was completed, he finally vented his squeezed emotions, stepped on his feet, raised his hands in his chest, and opened his mouth and roared at the audience with excitement.
Chapter completed!
