On January 2, 2013, the north bank garden had a very heavy atmosphere. Today, when link stepped into the stadium, he immediately felt a sense of depression.

Celtic fans didn't yell. The lights on the North Bank Garden stand were dim, as if only the basketball court was illuminated. And around the basketball court, it's dark.

Celtics lost three games in a row, losing 23 points per game. In the face of such a situation, Celtic fans are naturally unable to clamor. After all, they are very clear that the Celtic team today's opponent, is the league's first, is now 25 wins, only 3 losses, just two days ago just slaughtered the Pacers are not left!

It may be the first time Celtic fans have been so unsure at home since the big three gathered on the east coast in 2007.

Link was observing the unusual north bank garden when he heard a small cheer. Turn around to see, sure enough, it's Celtic players on the field!

The first to take everyone out of the players' tunnel was Pierce, the 34 year old forward, who was very serious.

Link knew what Pierce was thinking, otherwise he would not have asked himself about "truth" yesterday.

Celtic want to stop at home, pierce wants to continue to use his remaining fuel tank against link.

Link certainly knows how important this victory is for Celtic, but it has nothing to do with him. It is impossible for him to do something like releasing water because he sympathizes with his opponent.

"Link, if Garnett attacks you with garbage today, you must not lose your temper." Stevens's yelling made link take his eyes off Pierce.

"Don't worry. It's Mr. Zach's anger to be angry." Link smiles and waves his hand, but Garnett has been in a bad mood recently. It's not a few days since the famous swearing war between him and Anthony.

It's a pity that Garnett got the wrong guy in New York. Anthony has the final say that Garnett has been blocked after the match, and Garnett is afraid to come out in the bus.

is really a mess in New York. Brother Gua has the final say.

Today is Celtic's home, is in Garnett's territory. I guess that guy's mouth will be even more broken.

Link is really worried. Randolph, I hope the goods don't fight Garnett.

After the warm-up, t.nt reporters found pierce and gave him a short pre match interview.

As expected, the reporter's question is related to link, "is link the best No. 3 player in the league now?"

There is no doubt that the reporter asked pierce this question in the hope that pierce would give some praise to the younger generation.

However, pierce joked, "I am the best, I have this confidence."

Reporter Leng in situ, this answer he seems to have heard. Before the 2007 finals, a reporter asked pierce if Kobe was the best player on the planet. As a result, pierce responded to the reporter with that sentence.

As we all know, the Celtics defeated the Lakers 4-2 in the finals and won the 17th championship in the history of Celtics. Pierce, who averaged 22 points, won the fmvp trophy.

Pierce's words soon reached linkel, and he was not surprised.

Don't be fooled by Pierce's honest appearance. He has always been a player who blows his hands and curses his mouth. And like link, he is a "villain.".

In 2008, pierce and the other two giants led a 4-2 victory over the Lakers when the media kept saying "Kobe will get another championship ring.".

When the world is clamoring for "23 vs 24" in the finals, pierce and his green army have destroyed people's dreams again and again.

In the face of a high-profile newcomer, when the whole world wants pierce to make way for him, he will quietly take up the boxing and swing one punch after another to those "decent" who are popular.

Speaking of it, pierce and link are quite similar.

So in the face of Pierce's provocation, link did not respond, "I just want to play well, that's all."

Everyone is a villain. It depends on who does it more!

At 8:00 p.m., the referee signals the starting players of both sides to step into the court, and the game is about to start!

Today, there is no player introduction ceremony, and there is no overwhelming cheering. Celtic players are like soldiers who fight to the death, with the determination of "fight or die if you can't win", they are in front of the first place in the league.

Celtic side of the starting line and usual, Rondo and Bradley partner outside. Garnett and pierce two old standing front line, the center has always been the Celtic team's soft rib, now let the aged Garnett to top the fifth position is not a wise choice. So, Celtic also tried a lot of choice of starting center this season.

Today, Celtic sends the starting center is 01 year old Jason Collins. Collins's career is not unusual, peak season is not off the court, average 6 points and 6 rebounds.The guy's only public attention was last year, but it wasn't basketball that caught the spotlight, but that he became the first active athlete in North American sports history to publicly admit his homosexuality.

Therefore, position 5 is the breakthrough for Grizzlies today.

The referee whistled, and the heavy atmosphere of the game officially began. Pau Gasol easily took the basketball from Collins' head and Conley pushed the ball past half-time.

Rajan Rondo is not a friendly opponent. The point guard, who has been selected for the best defensive lineup for four years in a row and has been selected as the best defensive team for two years in a row, blocked his path in front of Conley.

Rondo didn't press close at first, but kept a moderate distance, which made Conley unable to accelerate easily.

Conley hit igordala with Rondo's blocking. Igordala has the advantage over Bradley, who is only 1.88 meters tall.

As a result, igordala directly broke through the screen and wanted to eat Bradley with his height advantage!

But just as igordala jumped into the penalty area, Kevin Garnett arrived with a roar.

"Wolf king" made a great leap, stretched out his arms, Leng is igordala's layup to fan back!

With Bradley at the bottom, igordala couldn't take off at all. Although Bradley only 1.88 meters, but the ability to fight is really strong. When Bradley was still in college, people said he could defend NBA level guards.

In this way, igordala's first layup was blocked by Garnett!

"Kg, he actually blocked igordala, incredible!" The Boston commentaries on the spot all widened their eyes. With the increase of age, Garnett's defensive ability has actually declined year by year.

Different from the peak period, Garnett is using interference and confrontation to force the opponent to strike iron, rather than block directly.

Just like that kind of crisp big hair, now in Garnett body is really rare, it seems, kg is really hard today!

Rondo got the blocked basketball. This guy's judgment on the falling point of basketball is always very accurate. The nickname "c-duo" is not shouting.

Rondo didn't make a quick push. Instead, he dribbled and gestured.

After Rondo crossed the midfield line, he was embarrassed to find that Conley had fallen directly within the three-point line... He was once again completely out of the three-point line.

Rondo's mouth twitched twice, but did not interrupt his thoughts. He gave the ball to kg, who stood at the free throw line. Kg and pierce played hand in hand. Igordala was blocked by Garnett, and Randolph had to change his defense to pierce.

Randolph thought Pierce would take advantage of this small big opportunity to break through, but as soon as pierce got the ball from Garnett's hand, he took advantage of the situation to directly back up the jump shot!

"Shit!" Randolph rushed to block, but Pierce's shot was too difficult to interfere with.

Pierce's back take-off height is not high, but the angle is particularly large. It gives people the feeling of "I'm going to seal him, but I can't seal him".

In Randolph's powerless interference, Pierce's mid range backward jump shot straight into the net!

Garnett and pierce, the two "past" superstars, with the excellent performance of one attack and one defense, won the first prize for Celtic!

At the moment of the goal, link finally heard the confident cheers from the stands. North Shore garden, finally activated by Pierce.

"Beautiful back jumper, pierce has a strong desire to attack today. Take the ball and throw it without hesitation. I hope he can keep his form today

Grizzlies attack, this time, grizzlies all pull open, Conley will drop the ball into the inside line, to little Gasol singles Collins.

But Collins was tough on the defensive end, with Pau Gasol hitting his back twice, and the distance he could push was negligible.

There is no way, Gasol had to turn over the jump shot before the back overtime violation.

Gasol's shooting point is very high, but Collins also has a height of 2.13 meters and a pair of long arms. In his interference, Pau Gasol's shot hit the box and the Grizzlies missed for the second time in a row!

"Celtic defense is better than expected On the Grizzlies' bench, assistant coach Elson Turner was in a hurry.

"This is the green shirt, man." Stevens is still calm. He knew for a long time that Celtic are different from the other ninth in the East.

Garnett took the game's second rebound, Celtic counterattack!

Igordala has been following pierce all the time. He knows that this guy is the number one danger to Celtic. Just that backward jump shot has shown Pierce's good touch today.

Pierce walked slowly to the right side of the court in the middle of the distance, then leaned back against igordala, as if to back his back in singles!

Pierce's butt is not small and his back footwork is excellent. Igordala did not dare to slack off, trying to hold Pierce's waist and sink his weight back.But just then, pierce secretly pushed igordala and suddenly rebounded out of the three-point line!

Igordala's center of gravity has fallen back. It's hard to keep up with him as soon as pierce pushes him!

As soon as pierce ran out of the right-hand three-point line, Rondo's pass arrived the first time. At this time, igordala is still one body short of Pierce.

Pierce is merciless, pull up the shot! Igordala sealed it, but he had left pierce too much space.

"Brush!"

Pierce hands up and down, basketball hollow into the net, no delay! Celtic fans cheered and all stood up. Paul Pierce seems destined to end the losing streak at home with 5 points in a row!

After the goal, pierce waved his arm and yelled, "this is the damn truth!"

Link is ready to move. It's time for him to take over the attack.
