Inside the Eagles' rest area.

"The score is 46:32 now, and we are leading by 14 points. Next, while doing a good job of defense, we will play out the rhythm of our offensive and strive to expand the gap to more than 20. In this way, we will be much easier in the second half. This game is of great significance to us. As long as we win this game, we will be very sure of this round of series." Larry Drew said to Wu Feng with a serious face.

Since winning the head coach of the year, Larry Drew has also seemed much more confident.

Wu Feng nodded when he heard this.

After the timeout, the Hawks replaced Marvin Williams and replaced McGrady.

On the Celtics, Doug Rivers actually sent Marquez Daniels to replace Paul Pierce.

In this way, Marquez Daniels will return to the small forward position.

However, on the defensive end, Marquis Daniels is still defending Wu Feng.

Doug Rivers played this way. When Wu Feng was exhausted almost the same physical strength, he sent Marquez Daniels, who had already recovered his energy. In this way, he would definitely play a good role in limiting Wu Feng.

When Wu Feng came to the frontcourt with the ball and Marquis Daniels faced Wu Feng, Larry Drew understood Doug Rivers' intention.

At this time, Larry Drew walked to Anthony Morrow and arranged for him: "Anthony, prepare for it and replace Wu Feng immediately."

Upon hearing this, Anthony Moro quickly took off his coat and started a warm-up activity.

On the court, Wu Feng felt Marques Daniels' urgent defense and did not blindly choose to use speed to get rid of the opponent, but instead controlled the ball slowly and looked for opportunities.

Then, Wu Feng waved to McGrady at the basket.

Seeing this, McGrady quickly pulled up.

Wu Feng took the opportunity to get rid of Marquez Daniels' defense. Marquez Daniels wanted to chase him, but was blocked by McGrady.

Wu Feng held the ball and rushed towards the basket, and Kevin Garnett quickly made up.

Just when Wu Feng's body was about to hit Kevin Garnett, Wu Feng suddenly turned incredible and passed the ball to McGrady at the top of the arc.

It turned out that McGrady came up with a pick-and-roll just a superficial phenomenon. His real purpose was to sneak outside and then run out of an open space from the outside with the help of Marquez Daniels and a teammate.

McGrady easily received Wu Feng's pass, and then threw the ball out without even adjusting it.

Bradley was a little depressed because he didn't keep up to defend McGrady in time.

The fans at the scene were staring at the ball spinning in the air. Since McGrady made a brilliant performance in the playoffs, they naturally attracted their attention.

"Bangbang", the basketball hit the basketball back and forth a few times in the ring, and then fell unwillingly.

McGrady's three-pointer also made, and the fans of the Phillips Arena shouted excitedly.

After McGrady also made a three-pointer, the Atlanta Hawks had already hit six three-pointers in this quarter, which seemed to have given the Celtics a big and small three-pointer.

Now, the score on the field is 49:32, and the Eagles have expanded the gap to 17 points. With 3 points left, they can widen the gap to 20 points.

Being 20 points behind in the first half is usually an almost unsurprising game in the impression of fans.

But in the NBA, everything is possible, not to mention that this is still the playoffs.

Therefore, when the fans on the scene saw that the home team was already 17 points ahead and did not say anything like "has won", they knew that in the playoffs, any miracle would happen before the last moment.

When Doug Rivers saw this scene, he wanted to call another timeout and scolded the players loudly, but he had no choice but to give up.

On the Hawks, Larry Drew smiled from ear to ear when he saw Doug Rivers' helpless look.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to die, Larry Drew replaced Wu Feng and replaced Anthony Moro, who had been warmed up before.

Celtics offense.

Ray Allen received a pass from his teammate Avery Bradley from outside the three-point line, but failed to score this time.

Kevin Garnett fought his life to take offensive rebounds.

However, Kevin Garnett did not attack twice immediately, and Al Horford's defensive ability at the basket still made him very concerned.

But more importantly, Al Horford had already committed two fouls at this time. As long as the tactics are clever, it is not impossible to push Al Horford to the bench.

Feeling the amazing force on his back, Kevin Garnett's heart tightened and his face was full of solemn expressions.

The center of gravity of his body sank slightly and he hit Al Horford.

Al Horford felt that Kevin Garnett's strength became stronger in an instant, and immediately responded accordingly.

In the penalty area, Kevin Garnett felt the change of Al Horford, and his tight body quickly softened, took a small step to the right, winning the space for jumping, and jumped lightly under the basket.

As he expected, Al Horford had no time to stop his footsteps, and under the influence of inertia, he bumped into his body.

Kevin Garnett threw the ball with the opportunity. His purpose was obvious, obviously to play 2+1 on Al Horford. However, he still underestimated Al Horford. When he saw the ball in Kevin Garnett's hand, he already knew what was going on.

Al Horford did not watch the opponent shoot, but took advantage of the situation to hug Kevin Garnett and pulled him down.

"Clang", the ball hit the bottom of the rebound, and Kevin Garnett's 2+1 plan was also disappointed.

Al Horford, who had three fouls, had to sit on the bench early to rest. Fortunately, the Hawks still led their opponents by 49:32.

At this time, there were nearly four minutes left in the second quarter. In the following time, the disadvantages of Al Horford's departure immediately appeared. The competition for rebounding, which was not very ideal, the Hawks were even more trapped. In the remaining minutes of the second quarter, the Celtics actually grabbed four offensive rebounds in succession, and Kevin Garnett made a strong attack on the Hawks' inside line and made consecutive successes.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Anthony Morrow and Coke Hinrich maintained their consistent level outside the three-point line, so that the opponent did not completely gain the upper hand.

However, at the end of the midfield game, the Hawks led their opponents by only 11 points with 57:46.

At this time, Kevin Garnett's 17 points were still scored, and he scored 8 rebounds, including three offensive rebounds.

The highest score for the Hawks is Wu Feng's 17 points. In the regular season, Larry Drew always hoped that Wu Feng could participate more in the offense, but Wu Feng was still blindly in the organization of the offense. Unexpectedly, what was not achieved in the regular season was so easy to achieve in the playoffs.

With 36 points in the first game and 17 points in the half game of this game, Wu Feng has become the team's most stable scoring point. And what is gratifying is that he still maintains a high-level shooting, with his mid-range shots and three-point shootings reaching an astonishing 60%.

"How do you feel?" In the locker room, Deng Houjian was sitting and massaged Wu Feng.

In the second quarter, Wu Feng suffered a slight knee injury in a fight.

This is also the reason why Larry Drew used Anthony Morrow to replace Wu Feng so decisively.

"Well, it's much better." Wu Feng replied with a smile.

At this time, Larry Drew walked into the locker room.

"Wu, your injury is nothing serious, right?" Larry Drew asked Wu Feng with a serious look on his face.

Wu Feng sat up, shook his head and replied, "It's okay."

"Well, that's good. Have a good rest. You still need you in the second half!" Larry Drew's face slowed down and he smiled.

Wu Feng and the team members nodded.

Soon, the second half will begin soon.

Wu Feng walked through the player passage and was about to walk to the field. Emma Watson's voice came into his ears.

"Feng, come on, you are the best." Although Emma's voice was mixed with the cheers of the fans, Wu Feng still heard it.

Wu Feng nodded at her with a smile, and then walked into the stadium.

In fact, Wu Feng and Emma have been dating for quite some time, and their relationship is only one marriage certificate short of each other.

During the New Year this year, Wu Feng went to Emma's house and officially visited her parents.

Emma also went to Wu Feng's house for the Spring Festival. Therefore, the two of them had met their parents and were recognized by both parents.

However, until now, the parents of the two families have not met. Wu Feng's father Wu Changtian planned to wait until Wu Feng finished this season and arrange for the two parents to meet and formally discuss the marriage between Wu Feng and Emma.

Even if they cannot get married because of their current career, it is OK to decide on the marriage first.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Al Horford, who had been resting on the bench for so long, was already full of anger. The Eagles' first offense was handed over to him.

During the muscle collision, Kevin Garnett was squeezed to the basket step by step, and Al Horford took the opportunity to turn around and dunk.

The "bang" and the sound of dunks resounded throughout the game. In the fierce competition in the first half, both sides chose the most secure offensive method. Such an amazing dunk scene had never happened, but this ignited the atmosphere of the Hawks at home.

"Drip", the referee's whistle came a little late.

Al Horford was already prepared. The dunk just now was indeed a bit rash, and he might be called a foul on the offensive. However, he did not regret at all. The suppressed emotions in his heart were wiped out, and the dunk just now ignited the atmosphere of the whole audience. Looking at the fans' hard cheers, Al Horford felt that victory was not very far away from him.

However, the next scene made the fool stunned. The referee actually yelled Kevin Garnett's defensive foul. Kevin Garnett was about to come forward to argue, but the referee just pointed at the soles of his feet expressionlessly.

Kevin Garnett looked down and saw when half of his right foot stepped into the three-second zone?

Could it be that the subconscious action just now, when Al Horford's violent aura flew to his eyes, he seemed to be frightened by the momentum in front of him, and subconsciously closed his eyes slightly.

Did his right foot subconsciously take a step back? This discovery made him feel unprecedentedly ashamed. For the first time in his life, he chose to avoid when facing an opponent. Although this was just an instinctive movement of his body, it also showed that in that moment, he did feel fear in his heart.

For a player, fighting spirit on the court is very important, but this fighting spirit is also divided into situations. In order to deny what he did just now, Kevin Garnett became more sharp in offense. However, a player who has lost his rationality has become a double-edged sword in the game. While hitting the opponent, he can hurt himself.

Kevin Garnett succeeded in three consecutive inside attacks, and Al Horford clearly felt the changes in him. He was still in a even confrontation just now, but now he was at a slight disadvantage, especially the elbow he gave him in the position just now. Until now, his chest still hurts faintly.

Larry Drew naturally noticed Kevin Garnett's abnormality, but he did not call a timeout.

Kevin Garnett was obviously out of control at this time, and his successive success only shows that the offenses of other Celtics players are weak, and I'm afraid that Doug Rivers is the one hesitant at this time.

The Celtics' offense is unstable when Kevin Garnett's handling. If it doesn't change, the Celtics' offense will be too monotonous. As long as the Hawks double-teamed him, the team's offense will immediately fall into a dilemma. However, until now, the Celtics' offense performance except Kevin Garnett and other players in offense have not been enough to reassure Doug Rivers.

Rajon Rondo took advantage of Kevin Garnett's pick-and-roll to break through on the left, but Wu Feng did not change defense. Instead, he bypassed Kevin Garnett and ran to chase Rajon Rondo towards the bottom line.

Seeing this, Rajon Rondo hesitated for a moment and changed his decision.

Rajon Rondo was not slow, so he threw Wu Feng behind him and jumped into a small throw. However, he avoided Wu Feng, which did not mean that no one was defending him.

Marvin Williams made up for defense and gave Rajon Rondo a big hat.
