Chapter 822 The Origin of Iron Blood

"The development of this game is very surprising." Weber said with a smile.

Barkley said: "The Timberwolves played really well in the first few rounds."

"Boston will adjust quickly," Smith said.

"It seems that you have really studied us thoroughly." McGrady said. "But as long as Kendrick doesn't come out for pick-and-rolls, that guy can't come out."

"You may have made a mistake." Bai Jidong suddenly stepped forward to press him.

McGrady was shocked, dribbled the ball behind him, and firmly protected it.

Then, Bai Jidong held back his strength, and the referee couldn't call him a foul.

"Who told you that he must face Kendrick?" Bai Jidong asked McGrady aggressively.

McGrady was startled and saw Medved wrestling with Garnett.

"Then put Kendrick out on the pick-and-roll."

It is understandable for McGrady to do this. He preconceived that only Medved can come out to help defend Ray Allen.

That's why the Timberwolves started Joe Smith.

He is a little shorter than Yi Jianlian and faster.From the perspective of switching defenses against smaller players, he has an advantage over Yi Jianlian.

In other words, what Medved can do, he can too.

With his experience and technique, he can do better.

So Ray Allen once again encountered the help defense inside, and those waving arms with tall arms and long arms rushed towards him, and his shot was again inaccurate.

"Mine!" Garnett yelled, first knocked Medved away with his body, then jumped hard, and put the offensive rebound into his arms.

Garnett grabbed this rebound very wisely. He didn't compete with Medved's physical fitness, and made full use of his body tonnage to push him away, and then took the rebound.

As soon as Garnett got the ball, the boos on the scene were like a flood, and he was overwhelmed.

Garnett has heard countless boos, and tonight was definitely the biggest he's ever heard.

The Celtics were beaten by the Timberwolves a few times in the opening game, and their minds were dizzy. Garnett wanted to wake up his teammates.

"African idiot, just because you dare to challenge me?"

Garnett sat down Medved, turned over and flew into the air, with an absolute height in the air, Medved could only look up.

It's not that he couldn't jump to Garnett's height, it's just that Garnett's series of actions before take-off made him unable to take off.

Garnett's posture in the air is so graceful, like a beautiful painting, Medved can't think of anything more beautiful than this.

He seems to have seen his own future, and he hopes that he can play as freely as Garnett in the future.

A role model is in front of him, and Medved will not be intimidated by him: "Your movements are beautiful!"

"It's not just pretty, it can blow your ass off!" Garnett's trash talk doesn't leave any sympathy, and Medved is very excited when he meets someone who is good.

"Boss, that guy is amazing!"

Medved was shot by Garnett, instead of being angry, he smiled, and he was actually very happy.

"Yeah, he is so good, what are you going to do?" Bai Jidong asked back.

Medved said: "I want to find the secret that makes him so powerful."

"The great KG is Boston's reassurance, and this ball is enough to help Boston stabilize its position."

As a representative of the prosperous age of power forwards, Garnett, like Duncan, is an evergreen tree in this position.

Everyone who loves basketball loves to talk about Garnett, one of the greatest forwards of all time, one of the most frenetic, competitive minds in all of sports, a guy who can post a historic career scoring total And total rebounding numbers, one of the deadliest defenders of his era...we know so much about him, but we don't know how good he is.

Garnett's unselfishness is his strength, but also his flaw that leads to greater greatness.

He just lacks what Bai Jidong did in Game5, ignoring all his teammates for the sake of victory, being selfish to the end.

After meeting Bai Jidong, Pierce, Tracy McGrady, and Ray Allen, Garnett can finally do those more special things.

Protect the rim, choose more confident shots, control the rebound, use his deadly high jumper to move the opposing center away from the basket, score 20+12 every night, and use his unmatched intensity to improve the strength of all teammates On-court performance without the pressure to make big shots.

Medved saw the goal of his future development: "Boss, I want to play like him, can I?"

Normally, it is impossible for Medved to develop into Garnett.

Garnett has developed such skills since he was a guard since he was a child.

Medved has only been in contact with basketball for less than a year. His talent allows him to have a high lower limit, but his development path is very limited.

No matter how hard he trains, he doesn't have enough time to improve himself, so he can only work hard in places where he can improve quickly.

Bai Jidong didn't want to tell him the truth, so it's okay to have a goal: "If you can work 10 times harder than Bo Nu, maybe you can."

"So simple?" Medved's rhetorical question made Vashabek stomp his feet angrily.

Bai Jidong was smiling, and Medved watched Vashabek train every day. He must know how hard Vashabek is, so he should know the concept of "working 10 times harder than Vashabek".

"Don't relax, let me guard them to death! Who the hell is missing someone..." Garnett roared. With his supervision, the Celtics' defense is the best in the league.

It can be said that the reason why the Timberwolves' defense is so strong is because Garnett left a tradition here, and this tradition was not brought by Bai Jidong.

Bai Jidong only continued the tradition after Garnett left - vowing to defend against the opponent's attack.

However, his appeal is much worse than Garnett.

Also because of Garnett's existence, the Celtics are not only the strongest offensive team in the league, but also one of the strongest defensive teams.

Whenever Garnett raised his voice to defend his opponent to death, his teammates turned into mad dogs one by one, eager to bite off a piece of meat from the opponent.

McGrady defended excitedly, but unfortunately had little effect.

Bai Jidong passed through Mai Di's defense line in one step, like a treasured knife cutting iron like mud, easily split through Mai Di's iron wall, and went straight to the inside.

This was Bai Jidong's first breakthrough tonight, Garnett moved his feet and rushed forward to fill the gap, trying to beat Bai Jidong back.

Bai Weidong's layup almost succeeded, but under the cover of Garnett, the ball slowly slipped out of the basket.

Medved grabbed the offensive rebound and made the second down, and Perkins yelled and fouled from behind Medved, knocking his ball off.

"hateful!"

Medved grabbed the ball and shot it unwillingly. Although the shot didn't count as a point, he just wanted to feel like he was looking for the basket.

Garnett is like a lion guarding his territory, not allowing his territory to be stained with any peculiar smell. He jumped up and blocked Medved's meaningless layup.

Throwing fists in anger, gnashing teeth, as if wanting to fight someone.

The audience booed Garnett, and Garnett enjoyed the boos of the people he once guarded.

Medved stood there blankly, wondering what Garnett had just done.

Garnett's approach made the atmosphere of the game austere, which is the most valuable trait in him.

What Garnett did for the Celtics cannot be measured in numbers; the numbers don't fully reveal what happened.

He changed the team's long-standing losing culture.He taught his teammates to care about defense, training, professionalism, and to dedicate everything he has on the court without reservation.

He told them to stop caring about numbers and start caring about winning.

Bai Jidong has never seen a more contagious, selfless, and team-oriented player. The entire team is under his leadership.

Whenever a young player was chasing his stats or disobeying his coach, Garnett glared at him.Whenever a teammate was threatened, Garnett would go up to support him.Whenever a teammate fell, Garnett would rush to pull him up; eventually, four teammates would rush to pull a fifth up.Whenever opponents still shot after the whistle, Garnett would defiantly block the ball, as if it was a matter of principle.

It's a series of little things, like baby steps after baby steps, but they add up to something huge, the backbone of the best team ever.

Every Celtic started doing that.The Celtics will not allow shots after the whistle.This is an unwritten but ironclad rule.

Such a familiar and kind Garnett, such an authentic Garnett.

Bai Jidong knew him very well, they fought side by side for three years and won three championships together.

No one knows Garnett's value better than him.
