At the scene, players from both sides warmed up.

Everyone on the Celtic side looked serious, as if they were about to go to the battlefield, nervous, a little worried, and a little excited.

In contrast, the atmosphere on the Lakers' side is much more relaxed.

Except Kobe.

There was no excitement, nervousness, or excitement on Kobe's face.

It gave the audience the feeling that this game was not important to him at all, just like an ordinary regular season game.

The reason why Kobe is like this is mainly because he and Zhang Zhiyuan calculated the current statistics before the game. Zhang Zhiyuan has averaged 37 points per game in the finals so far, while he only has 26.4 points. The gap has reached double digits.

When he calculated this result, Kobe even didn't believe his eyes for a while, so he repeated the calculation several times. In the end, he sadly discovered that his math skills were actually pretty good.

Why is there such a big difference? Kobe was confused for a while.

The difference is ten points, and there is no hope of catching up.

What’s the point of not having the FMVP championship? He already has three of them.

Kobe was no longer interested in the game, but he did not dare to refuse to play, and it was impossible not to play.

When people are in the alliance, they can't help themselves.

The warm-up is over and the game begins.

The Lakers sent out their regular lineup, Fisher, Kobe, Zhang Zhiyuan, Hayes, and Bynum.

The Celtics changed their formation and sent out Rondo, Ray Allen, Tony Allen, Pierce, and Garnett.

There is one more striker and one less center.

Rivers has already agreed. If the Lakers choose to let Bynum play the main offense, then he will admit it.

Moreover, Bynum may not be able to gain much advantage by playing against Garnett.

The two teams jumped the ball, and Garnett jumped high and gave the ball to his side.

On the other hand, Bynum only tiptoed symbolically and had no intention of competing with Garnett.

Celtic attack first.

Rondo controlled the ball for half the game, Zhang Zhiyuan retreated to his own half, and then used the attribute chain on Tony Allen and Garnett.

At the same time, he also used a new prop to ensure victory in the game.

[Basket Overlord: Greatly enhances the host's strength, low-post singles success rate 10%, rebound sense 10%, physical strength increased by 10%, duration 30 minutes. 】

This is a prop suitable for inside players, but it doesn't matter if outside players use it. There are actually quite a few outside players who like to play singles under the basket.

Pierce likes to go to the basket. Today he finally didn't have to face Zhang Zhiyuan, and happily ran to the basket to compete with Hayes for position.

But Hayes' strength doesn't boo him, and Pierce can't take advantage.

But Pierce was more flexible. He squeezed twice and suddenly retreated to the outside. Hayes caught up with him. Pierce immediately reached for the ball and then broke through Hayes.

Compared with strength, Pierce doesn't have any advantage, but compared with technology, Pierce is much better than Hayes.

Hayes reacted a step too slowly, and by the time he tried to defend, Pierce had already crossed half of his body.

Then Pierce got to the basket and scored.

When the Lakers attacked, Zhang Zhiyuan called out to Hayes and asked him to stand on the outside as he wanted to go inside.

Hayes didn't know why Zhang Zhiyuan did this, but it didn't matter, he didn't need to know, he just did it and it was done.

After everyone passed halftime, Tony Allen was still cautiously following Zhang Zhiyuan, fearing that Zhang Zhiyuan would suddenly start.

Zhang Zhiyuan did not run, but ran directly to the basket to grab the position.

Tony Allen had no choice but to follow the basket and create a confrontation.

Zhang Zhiyuan reached for the ball near the penalty area. Fisher was stunned for a moment and then passed the ball.

Can Zhang Zhiyuan play from behind? Fisher is not sure.

However, he believes that Zhang Zhiyuan will not mess up on the stage of the finals.

Perhaps Zhang Zhiyuan wanted to deceive his opponent and then pass the ball.

After Zhang Zhiyuan caught the ball, he directly nudged Tony Allen with his butt. Good guy, Tony Allen almost sat on the ground.

Even though he didn't fall, he had already taken a step back, and his steps were sloppy and he couldn't stand firm.

Of course Zhang Zhiyuan was not polite and took the opportunity to continue thrusting inside. Tony Allen was pushed back repeatedly, like a primary school student being bullied by college students.

After entering the penalty area, Zhang Zhiyuan immediately turned around and shot a jumper.

If we don't take action, Pierce or Garnett can help defend.

Sure enough, as soon as the ball left his hand, Garnett pounced on it, but unfortunately it was still a step too late.

The basketball flew towards the basket and fell into the net.

The ball goes in.

"Hey, why did Zhang go to the low post today?"

Smith asked curiously.

"What's all the fuss about? Playing in the low post is the most effective way to score. It makes sense for him to play like this."

Buckley's comments were serious. In fact, he just wanted to brag about himself in disguise.

After all, Zhang Zhiyuan's style of play just now was his signature technique.

During the transition between offense and defense, Rondo took the ball across half court, Tony Allen ran to the bottom corner, and Zhang Zhiyuan had no choice but to follow him.

Tony Allen's corner three-pointer cannot be released, but it is a bit wasteful to let Zhang Zhiyuan only be responsible for one Tony Allen.

I have to say that Rivers' adjustment is somewhat effective.

In addition, Kobe was also allowed to run outside by Ray Allen, and the Lakers were somewhat empty inside.

Pierce had a larger range of movement and continued to use more flexible steps to get rid of Hayes, and then caught the ball and hit Hayes alone.

The ball didn't go in, but Celtic's intention was achieved.

As long as he keeps playing like this, Pierce's efficiency will still be quite high.

During the transition between offense and defense, both Zhang Zhiyuan and Kobe Bryant reached the basket, and all the Celtics' defensive players also huddled under the basket. The basket was suddenly as crowded as a vegetable market.

Kobe was double-teamed after catching the ball, and then he passed the ball to Zhang Zhiyuan.

But Garnett Pierce and others were very close to Zhang Zhiyuan, so they immediately left Kobe behind to double-team Zhang Zhiyuan, not giving Zhang Zhiyuan a chance to take action.

Zhang Zhiyuan passed the ball to Hayes, who was standing relatively outside, and Hayes made a jump shot.

Unfortunately, this distance is a bit far for him and is beyond his ability.

The basketball was a little short and hit the rim.

Zhang Zhiyuan took off, Pierce also took off, Garnett and others also took off.

In the air, Zhang Zhiyuan and Pierce collided, and then Pierce's figure became crooked, but Zhang Zhiyuan continued to rise, and then took the lead in getting the basketball.

As soon as he landed, Tony Allen wanted to look back from behind, but Zhang Zhiyuan arched his butt, and Tony Allen took a step back.

Then Zhang Zhiyuan took a shot from behind and scored.

Tony Allen suddenly felt very depressed.

"What's wrong with you?"

Garnett questioned Tony Allen before serving, and was repeatedly beaten with force. This is too embarrassing and too weak.

"He's so strong."

Tony Allen said aggrievedly.

"This is nonsense, this bastard has a lot of strength to begin with."

Garnett said angrily.

He is someone who has fought with Zhang Zhiyuan and knows that Zhang Zhiyuan's strength has some advantages for outside players.

I'm angry because Garnett is not the coach and can't replace Tony Allen.

Moreover, once Tony Allen is replaced, this bastard Zhang Zhiyuan will definitely run without the ball, and no one on the Celtics will be able to catch up.

How come this guy is so strong and fast, yet he still fails to be selected? This is unscientific.

Garnett complained secretly.

The Celtics attacked, and they relied on internal and external tactics to help Garnett create an open opportunity, and Garnett hit a jumper.

After a few rounds of back-and-forth between the two sides, Smith couldn't help complaining: "The two teams must have worn the wrong jerseys today. Why is the Lakers' current play style so similar to the previous Celtics tactics, and now Kyle's tactics?"

In fact, the special people have a bit of the flavor of the Lakers before."

"When you put it like that, it seems a bit similar."

Buckley agreed.
