Basketball's No. 1 Anti-Fan

Chapter 59: The Ancient Greek God of Trash Talk
Rivers: Politeness on your part?

Han Sen's side interaction came at just the right time, but it made people feel very offended.

Moreover, the game was already 9 minutes in, close to the team's regular rotation time.

But with Hansen's question, Rivers certainly couldn't substitute Pierce. Even if he wanted to, Pierce would definitely not be happy.

Pierce is not Durant and will not be easily angered, but if a famous star is immediately substituted out after being mocked by a rookie, can he still make it in the league?

The Celtics' attack ultimately failed. Looking back, James took the ball from Williams after crossing half court.

How much do you not want to give yourself a chance to perform!

Han Sen was too tired to complain, so he just stood at a 45-degree angle on the weak side and did not move.

He really didn't believe that James would not care about the outcome of tonight's game just to target him.

It is impossible for James to remain indifferent to the jersey worn by the fan in the hotel and the insulting signs in the stadium.

James holds the ball and plays pick-and-roll with Ilgauskas.

The biggest difference between Ilgauskas and O'Neal is that he has shooting range, and his movement to the free throw line after being separated can take away the defender.

But the Celtics' defensive response was also extremely exciting. Ray Allen followed Ilgauskas, Perkins switched directly to defend Cunningham, and Garnett swept from the three-second zone to in front of James.

If it were Kobe, this defensive strategy would be useless because there would be a mid-range gap when Perkins and Garnett switched defense.

But James' mid-range shooting is unstable, which means that the Celtics' defense will be effective regardless of whether he shoots or not.

In fact, James did not shoot the ball, but used this opportunity to accelerate to the inside.

Unfortunately, he was stopped by Garnett.

There are many players in NBA history who boast that they can defend from one to five, but Garnett is the only one who can really do it.

James was well aware of Garnett's defensive ability, so he did not force an attack. Instead, he glanced at the timer at the moment of braking and then threw the ball to the outside.

Han Sen was a little surprised when he saw the basketball flying straight towards him.

Did he really guess it right?
But once he caught the ball, he realized something was wrong.

Because there were only 6 seconds left in the offense, this was another case of passing the buck.

Damn it, this businessman is so abominable!

"You won't have another chance like that." And at this moment, Pierce also trash-talked him.

You two work so well together, why don't you just be on the same team?

Hansen controlled the ball and made a small change of direction towards the middle.

Pierce also slid sideways towards the middle, his eyes still full of contempt.

How could he possibly get past him with this level of change of direction? It was indeed his carelessness that allowed Han Sen's sneak attack to succeed.

But at this moment, Han Sen first took a dragging step to the right with the ball, and then suddenly changed direction to the left.

This time, both the starting speed and the change of direction were far beyond Pierce's imagination.

The fans at the scene also widened their eyes. Is this... Wade's Phantom Step? !

Amid the uproar at the scene, Hansen passed Pierce's defense and leaned sideways to send the ball into the basket.

“Nice pass.”

After scoring, Hansen smiled and pointed at James.

James couldn't laugh at all. Han Sen was clearly provoking him!

The key question is, when did this guy learn DW's phantom step?

14:17.

In any case, after Han Sen scored 4 points in a row, the score difference on the field was narrowed to one goal.

Brown then looked up at the timer.

At this time, the time has come to 9 and a half minutes in the first quarter, and it is time for regular rotation.

But with Han Sen in this state, he really can't be suppressed if he replaces James.

Although he hoped that Han Sen would play well, he was more worried that James would take his anger out on him.

After thinking for a while, he turned around and called Daniel Gibson and Varejao.

At the same time, on the Celtics side, Rasheed Wallace also walked towards the technical table.

The Celtics had the ball, and Pierce did not continue to tangle with Hansen.

After all, he is not Durant. After seeing the narrow score, he realized that Hansen was setting a trap for him.

"You shouldn't be called Truth, you should be called Shit." But what he never expected was that Han Sen didn't seem to intend to let him go at all.

"What did you say?!" Pierce was speechless. Didn't he just say some trash talk to Hansen? Was it necessary for Hansen to keep chasing him?

"Don't think I don't know about you pulling your trouser pocket during the 08 finals." Han Sen explained to him considerately.

As soon as these words came out, even James on the side gave a look of surprise: Is there such a thing?

"You...you're talking nonsense!" Pierce's face turned red.

There is both anger and fear here.

Only a few Celtics staff knew that he pretended to be injured and couldn't hold back his pants pockets. Han Sen was still playing in the NCAA at that time. How did he know? ! Could it be that this guy is a pervert who not only watched the video frame by frame, but also enlarged it?

"Look, your reaction says it all." Han Sen continued.

James couldn't help laughing now.

Trash talk is a tradition in the NBA. Players from the last century, such as Jordan, Bird, and Payton, were all masters of trash talk.

There are many players nowadays who are good at trash talking, and Pierce is one of the more famous ones.

As for himself, he carries the title of the Chosen One and is the top brand of Nike, so he naturally disdains to say too much trash talk, especially on the court.

So he suffered a lot when playing against the Celtics over the years.

Then Han Sen's series of trash talk finally made him feel good.

Who would have thought that the "King of Trash Talk" Pierce would one day suffer a setback!
Hansen's face-ridden look and James' mockery made Pierce completely blush.

Screw the overall situation, I have to earn back my face today.

Pierce reached for the ball again, and Rondo passed it to him after seeing it.

Every team has its own small group, and Rondo, Garnett and Pierce are the biggest ones for the Celtics.

"You can call a pick-and-roll." Han Sen looked at Pierce and said caringly.

"No need!" Pierce roared through gritted teeth.

well.

Han Sen's words were actually similar to what he had said to Rivers before, both of which were to help the other party eliminate options.

Garnett's pick-and-roll and movement speed are both fast, and it is not certain that Pierce can defend him even if he really calls for a pick-and-roll.

Pierce started the attack with the ball, and this time he chose to play one-on-one with his back to the basket.

The step-back shot is his best face-to-face technique, but the failure of the attack in the previous round shows that it is not very effective against Hansen.

When Pierce was facing away from the defense, he actively sought to confront Hansen.

Like Han Sen, he is also an SVIP user of the gym, and he focuses on training his back and upper limbs in order to improve his back-to-the-basket offense.

His dynamic talent is relatively poor, and this is a way to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

Han Sen did feel the pressure. Pierce had very strong upper body strength, and was not at the same level as Morrison whom he met in the summer league. Before he gained weight, he was completely unable to defend against this kind of person.

Moreover, the back-to-the-basket pressure that Pierce gives is not just strength, but also the technical movements that connect after the confrontation.

This is also the main reason why James, who is also known for his strength, is not a threat in post-up singles.

When facing Pierce, if you really lower your head and try to hold on, Pierce can get rid of you with just a turn.

Of course, the most surprised person at this moment was Pierce, because he found that he could not use his strength to force Hansen to lower his center of gravity.

This rookie's resistance was much stronger than he expected. No wonder his push just now didn't move the opponent forward at all.

At this time, the league has the [Post-up 5 Seconds] rule, which means that post-up singles cannot exceed 5 seconds.

After Pierce tried several times and found that none of his attempts were effective, he turned directly to the free throw line and quickly stepped back to create distance.

But just as he stepped back.

"Snapped!"

He felt his hand lighten, and when he looked down, he saw that the ball had been stolen by Han Sen!

[Star Catcher], start!

After cutting off Pierce's attack, Hansen rushed forward in one quick step.

But James rushed out of the three-point line earlier than him.

The two men rushed forward, one in front and one behind, one on the left and one on the right.

Only Rondo from the Celtics reacted and chased after Hansen.

In the blink of an eye, the three of them had arrived at the frontcourt. James rushed faster without the ball, and Rondo changed direction and moved between the two of them, cutting off Hansen's passing route.

James pointed his finger above the basket when he saw this, asking Hansen to pass the ball to him.

Han Sen slowed down upon seeing this, and when he was half a step away from the three-point line in the front court, he just... shot a three-pointer!
You make every ball you throw difficult for me, and you still want me to pass you a simple ball?

This choice made James so angry that he swung his arms. If he was not far away, he would have rushed over to block Hansen.

Rondo didn't expect that he would run towards the basket to grab the rebound while James was out of control.

Brown was so angry about Hansen's choice that he stood up from the bench and cursed: "You fucking ..."

It wasn't the best choice, but Han Sen's shooting rhythm was very good.

After the basketball spun and drew a long-distance parabola...

"Boom!"

Shoot it into the basket like a cannonball!
17 flat!
Hansen launched a 7-0 offensive to help the Cavaliers tie the score!

"...How can it be so great!" Brown couldn't help but punch after standing up.
