Chapter 428 Departure
Many people think that the Celtics are an army. Those green shirts are devouring their opponents like beasts, writing their own history with one victory after another. While plundering the victory, they are also destroying the opponent's confidence. Half a season has passed, and the appetite of these guys has not been filled. Full.
"Maybe they are really planning to break the Bulls' regular season record, and I can only understand it this way. Otherwise, you can't explain why these guys are so eager for victory!"
It can't be said that the opponents can't understand these guys. Even those well-informed reporters are a little surprised by the Celtics' crazy plundering victory, because those guys are really too fierce.
I've seen people who are eager to win, but I've never seen anyone who is so desperate. When the Bulls won 72 wins, I'm afraid they are not as hungry as the Celtics. Those guys are like they haven't won in their lives!
But now they are the first in the league! Well, this doesn't make people live! How can there be such a way not to live!
But these curses will not change the Celtics' desire to plunder victory at all. Only these guys themselves understand that Boston has been sinking for too long, and Garnett and others have lost too many games.
They don't want to live the days of watching others win the championship and win the first place, so these guys won't let go of the game and plunder! Constant plundering! Cut down one opponent after another!
This is what the Celtics are doing now. They are domineering and even a little fierce, but they need this very much!
Rivers can't cultivate the momentum of Auerbach, but he can let this group of fierce people under his command forge the Celtics into a group of feared Green Shirts! Kill them when you see your opponents!
In the face of the Celtics' ferocious posture like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, too many people can only express their helplessness.
But it's just helpless. Unless you are fully sure to win Boston, it can only be boundless resentment. I really don't know how many ** will turn into resentful women at the end of this season.
One wave of winning streak, and the opponents were cut down like this. Who can accept this result?
Those competitors must be struggling to resist, but in the end, everyone saw that the top eight teams in the east were almost rotated by the beasts in Boston, and none of them were killed.
Although the Cavaliers and the Pistons are still chasing closely, if they really hit each other, Cleveland and Detroit are not sure enough to deal with the Celtics' group of animals. From strength to lineup, they are not sure.
However, compared with them, those teams in the same region as the Celtics suffer the most, especially the Raptors, who have reached the playoffs last season. Their fate is even more sad and sad.
You have to meet at least four times a season. This is a torture that you can't avoid. Whether the Raptors are at home or away, as long as they meet the Celtics, it is a ferocious** life.
The Raptors were ** eight games last season. Not counting the preseason, if it is counted, it will be ten games!
This season's sad fate continues. After the start of the game, there were two collisions, an away game and a home court, but the Raptors failed to stage a fateful counterattack, which is still a continuation of the fateful defeat.
Especially in the away game, they began to lose after supporting less than three quarters at the North Shore Garden Arena.
It can be a little better at home, but it has always been in a state of catching up with the score. It has not led the whole game. It not only loses a confrontation, but also makes the Celtics solidify the title of Raptors killer.
The same region is also trying to rise again. As a result, the Raptors can only be a qualified stepping stone now.
They have no intention of even for the remaining two confrontations. They just want not to encounter the Celtics' sniper again in the playoffs. If they really can't dodge, they really want to hit them to death.
Bosh has no hope of turning over under Chen Feng now. Every time he meets the bald boy, Bosh's performance will be very sluggish. In these two games, he has an average score of only a dozen points and five or six rebounds.
Don't say the law of the jungle, but Bosh just can't fight a wave of counterattacks. The Raptors can kill other teams in the Atlantic Division, but in front of the Celtics, they are a life that has been ** to death.
And the first battle of Rivers' sprint order was to cut down the competitors in the same district again!
Rivers is now the commander of the Celtics, and this guy's order is a signal for all members to attack.
He said he would sprint, so when these green-shirted bandits execute it, they will carry it out.
He fought back the Bulls' attack at home, and then the Celtics killed the Raptors on the road, firmly controlling the rhythm of the game, and plundering the victory suspensefully, so that the Raptors could only lament again.
The score of 100: 88 is not so fierce, but the Celtics' attack points are scattered, which makes the Raptors painful. Six people in the team actually scored double, and Toronto has completely fallen.
Bosh's 16 points are still the first efficiency of the Raptors, but under Chen Feng's attention, he has a shooting rate of less than 30%, and half of the points are from free throws. The cold shooting makes him very angry.
When he was interviewed after the game, Bosh chose to avoid talking about the contest between him and Chen Feng. The main reason was that there was really nothing to say. It was not the first time he lost, and he didn't care about shame this time.
Anyway, when it comes to Bosh, Chen Feng is his biggest nightmare. Even the local media in Toronto say that if there is such a saying in the world, then Bosh's nemesis is Chen Feng.
Now that it's like this, Bosh can only break the can, and he can't find a chance to resist.
I have tried so many times, and it has been like this since last season, whether it is pre-season or playoffs.
As long as he bumps into Chen Feng, Bosh will not have a good life. It seems that this unlucky state will last for a long time. Bosh can only pray that this nightmare can pass as soon as possible, and there is no other way.
Three kills! When the Celtics left Toronto with the result of killing the Raptors for the third time this season, the competition in the Atlantic Division had become suspenseless, and no one expected to compete with Boston.
The Nets have completely sunk. The 76ers and New York are at the bottom of the East. Now that the Raptors have long been extinguishing the battle for the region, no one can shake the status of Boston.
Not to mention whether they are the first in the league, this ferocious division record alone is enough for them to find a place in the playoffs. It's just what Rivers wants, but it's not a simple playoff seat.
After defeating the Raptors as a rival in the same area, the Celtics did not hold off. Before the All-Star Game, they will start their most devilish away journey of the season, playing five away games in seven days.
And the opponents here are not easy to mess with, mainly because there is a back-to-back confrontation, especially the four games are concentrated in the West. What they have to deal with are also the top eight teams in the West.
Of course, for this sad schedule, in addition to closing the door and scolding the street, Rivers really can't find any opportunity to vent. Those guys who arrange the schedule are probably not the first time to be scolded, but you can't pull down the game, even the most deadly back. Back.
But before embarking on a trip to the West, the Celtics' first away game was to kill the Heat in Miami.
The Heat, who just lost O'Neal and Wade, is a little unstable even if they want to keep their top eight positions in the East, especially when their injuries allow only eight players to play.
O'Neal's departure may be a catalyst, but it is undeniable that the departure of the Big Shark has drained the hearts of the Heat, and Wade's injury made the Miami people feel desperate.
The two cores, one runs away and the other is reimbursed for the season. Even if Pat Riley can calculate well, it is estimated that he will not expect that he will encounter so many troubles this season.
Now the Miami media's criticism of him is completely the treatment of heaven and hell when he led the team to win the championship.
If you win, you are God. If you lose, you are a sinner. The NBA world has always been this reality.
Even if you are Pat Riley, the Heat's record has declined so seriously this season, and the "divine operator" has become the public enemy of Miami fans, especially after he chose to trade O'Neal.
"We have lost Dwyane! Why do you want to trade Shaquille? Pat Riley is a real fool. He is no longer the smart guy he used to be! He ruined the Heat!"
This kind of roar and venting curses have almost filled Miami. Seeing that the Heat is in danger of missing the playoffs, those loyal fans who originally wanted to expect the team's counterattack can't sit still.
After all, the team's damn record has slipped all the way, and there is no feeling that it can save the decline.
Especially when the league was in a deal, he thought Pat Riley could still show his magic skills and bring a few practical help to the team, allowing the Heat to return to the ranks of the strong teams in the East.
But what did the old guy do in the end? He actually used O'Neill to make a deal with the Suns! And Marion, who came back, is also a wounded soldier! Have all the big sharks been replaced? So what's left for the Miami Heat?
I'm afraid no one can answer this question, but the cruel record of reality has been responded to. The five consecutive defeats after the trade are clear evidence that no one can count on Miami after Wade's injury.
Even if Pat Riley exerts his magic kung fu to the extreme, without a player, he still can't play.
"Pat Riley got rid of Big Van Gundy, so should he sentence himself to death now?"
Gang up! The fans need a new coach to lead the team, instead of hoping for what changes Pat Riley can make. I'm a little tired of his old face, Miami fans.
Especially when the Celtics defeated the Heat away from home, this shout has reached its peak!
Rivers and Chen Feng really heard the defection of those Miami fans at the American Airlines Center Stadium.
"Pat Riley! Get out of here!!! We have had enough of you! Your era is over!"
Such tsunami-like shouts began to break out in the last quarter, and the Celtics have replaced them as regular substitutes, and the score gap between the two sides has also widened to 15 points.
"The fans are always forgetful. They all forget that it was Pat Riley who brought them the championship."
However, Rivers' words are also said in private. He understands that the survival of the fittest in the league and what the coach has to bear is far more than the players. When the fans are dissatisfied, those people need a venting goal.
If he can't win in Boston, maybe one day there will be such a sound in the North Shore Garden Arena. Rivers is very clear about the future, and he can't change anything.
"Man, let's seize this opportunity now. At least Riley has a championship, and we have to work hard to fight for it, hoping to have another flag that belongs to us over the North Shore Garden Arena."
Thibodeau knows what his partner is thinking, but his words can also make Rivers see clearly what he needs to be busy with.
Pat Riley's coaching era in Miami seems to end like this, but the green shirt era of Rivers and Thibodeau is in its infancy. What they need is to win the championship!
There are few people who can die a team like Auerbach and then be admired by a city.
Even Phil Jackson is at most more than the cardinal in the number of champions. In terms of personal charm, the old bishop is probably an unsurpassable benchmark, at least for 20 years.
Looking at Pat Riley finally disappearing a little gloomy in the player channel, no one could have thought that this was the last time he stood on the sidelines of the American Airlines Center as a coach.
Less than 12 hours after the Celtics killed the Heat, Pat Riley announced that he had resigned as a coach and only focused on being the general manager of his team.
The successor candidate is a little unexpected novice, Eric Sporstra.
However, Pat Riley's departure is not a freshman of the Heat. When the "God operator" leaves sadly, what he brings to Miami will be another knockdown and reconstruction.
It's just what Miami fans need. Is it such a reconstruction? Can they stand the process?
But these problems have nothing to do with the Celtics for the time being. What Rivers and the Green Shirts need to do now is to start from Miami, and there are four fierce battles in the West waiting for them.
Before the start of the All-Star Game, they need enough wins, enough to make the pursuers despair...
