After the timeout, the first quarter started again. Chen Xiao made both free throws and scored two more points for the Nets.

20 to 18!

The Nets continued to lead by 2 points at home.

Do you think it’s strange to see such a score?

When the timeout was just now, the Celtics' head coach looked shocked. Logically speaking, the Celtics were already much behind.

But in fact, after the start of this game, the score difference between the two teams has been very small.

Because of Chen Xiao's low-level singles ability, the Nets have the means to stably score instead of fighting for luck throughout the whole process.

On the Celtic side, the Celtics' offensive state is actually very good.

Except for Pierce's slightly iron defense by Chen Xiao in the first quarter, the other Celtics' offensive form is very good.

And although Pierce is a little bit iron, he is very calm and does a very good job in assisting his teammates.

Chen Xiao made both free throws, the Celtics continued to attack, and Pierce immediately assisted Eric Williams to make a layup.

Pierce used all his strength to push Chen Xiaodu under the basket. Under Boozer's assisted defense, the pass in the calm crack was very beautiful and coquettish.

20 to 20!

The Celtics once again tied the score!

"If it weren't for those magical low-post attacks in the first quarter of the Magic Boy, the Celtics have led at least five points until now!"

Barkley's words are not a joke. The Celtics are in very good shape after the start of this game.

Chen Xiao is very efficient on the offensive end, and he also makes Pierce's defense come one after another.

How many points does this turn out?

This is also the nervousness of Celtics head coach O'Brien.

He is not sure how long Chen Xiao's offensive state can last such an excellent offensive state. After all, this is Qiao's backwardness. How long can Jordan's offensive state last?

Of course it may be a whole game!

But other Boston Celtics players cannot last for too long!

Therefore, O'Brien must clearly defend against Chen Xiao!

Pinch attack!

Don't hesitate at all, just attack!

If the Magic Boy wasn't at the low post in this game, he would have to attack him throughout the whole game.

However, since the Magic Boy has reached a low position, the strategy of attacking is also effective!

As long as the Magic Boy gets the ball in the low post, Eric Williams will not care about Kidd.

I have to say that O'Brien is indeed very foresighted.

Because just like his guess, in the second half of the first quarter, other Celtic players began to lose their scoring efficiency under Pierce's organization.

In the first half of the first quarter, the score between the two teams was 20-18.

After the first quarter, the score between the two teams was 29-26, and the Nets led by 3 points at home.

If the Nets' offense were not suppressed, how many points would the Celtics lose in the first quarter?

"Facts have proved that as long as the efficiency of the Magic Boy is reduced, the Nets' offense will not cause any big waves under normal circumstances!"

At the end of the first quarter, O'Brien was not satisfied with the score of the first quarter of this game, but he was able to accept it.

At the same time, the offensive evaluation of several starters of the Nets is very low.

However, this is also a fact. In the first quarter, the Nets' scoring was supported by Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao made 6 of 11 in the first quarter, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 18 points in the first quarter.

These 18 points were scored in the first half of the quarter and 6 points in the second half.

Except for Chen Xiao's 18 points, other starters of the Nets, Boozer made 2 and 4 points in 4, Richard Jefferson made 1 and 2 points in 1, Kidd made 1 and 3 points in 3, and Martin made 1 and 2 points in 2. I really can't stand Richard Jefferson's hesitant appearance on the offensive end. Kiddles, who replaced Richard Jefferson, made 0 and 0 points in 2.

The Nets can't blame the Celtics' coach for looking down on their offense, and the Nets' players are not unable to attack.

But it is not as stable as Chen Xiao.

If the Nets attack other players, they can score points and score more than 20 points in the first quarter, but facing the Celtics in this game, the Nets will definitely not lead the score.

At the beginning of the second quarter, on the side of the Celtics, Antoine Walker, who had a break in advance in the first quarter, led the team to play in the second team.

On the Nets, Kiddles and Richard Jefferson took Bug White and Rodney Rodds to play in the second team.

On the Celtics, at the beginning of the second quarter, Walker received a pass from Tony Delk, facing Richard Jefferson's three-point line, he made a breakthrough and shot from the mid-range shot!

28 to 29!

You can't blame Richard Jefferson for being so easy to be deceived. Antoine Walker at the three-point line is so willful. When he is ready to shoot, you really don't know what he is going to do.

Just like this time, Walker broke through, but in the next two attacks, Antoine Walker directly pulled out of the three-point line.

Of course, because Richard Jefferson was blocked, he made a two-time blacksmith.

Richard Jefferson has rich experience in defending Walker. He knows that he will jump to the block no matter what.

Walker is very disciplined to play against the Nets now, but he is still a willful player at heart. He doesn't pull out the three-point line a few times, and his hands are itchy!

So, after playing for more than two minutes, seeing Walker without Pierce, he played two irons in a row, and then made a mistake. The Celtics head coach O'Brien quickly replaced the main players such as Pierce, Barty, Bremer and Eric Williams.

On the Nets' side, Chen Xiao and Kidd could not rest. In addition, Boozer and Richard Jefferson on the court, four of the Nets' five starters came. The only one who did not play was Martin, and the one who stayed on the court at this time was Bug.

Martin Ge's assisted defense in the first quarter was very good, but the help he gave to Chen Xiao and his teammates on the offensive end was too little.

Nets head coach Byron Scott wants to change his approach in the second quarter.

I have to say that Byron Scott's adjustment is still very effective on the offensive end.

After Bugo came on the court, Chen Xiao came up in the second quarter and used the two double covers of Bugo and Boozer to receive Kidd's pass from the free throw line one after another, and hit two backward mid-range shots in a row!

It's still a Jordan-style backward jump shot.

After the first quarter, when Chen Xiao saw Qiao leaning back like this in the second quarter, although the audience on the scene and the audience in front of the TV were still amazed, they were no longer so shocked.

Of course, the audience is not shocked, which does not mean that NBA professionals are not shocked.

Especially those experts at TNT studios at this time.

"The Magic Boy actually spent a season changing all his shooting movements to Jordan-style?!"

"When did Jordan-style shooting become so cheap?"

"No, it's not that Jordan's shooting moves have become cheap, but that the Magic Boy's learning ability is too strong!"

"If the Magic Boy had athleticism above the level, I would really believe what Jordan said now, and he would become a defender like Larry Bird!"

"What a pity, what a pity!"

At this time, the experts and celebrities in the TNT studio were the same as the NBA scouts who had complex feelings for Chen Xiao in the first draft.

Shocked and appreciated Chen Xiao's incredible basketball learning talent, and at the same time regretted Chen Xiao's athletic talent.

In the second quarter, Chen Xiao did not continue to play singles at the low post at the basket.

Chen Xiao played 11 low-level singles in the first quarter, and the consumption of low-level singles was indeed very large.

Although the playoffs are also very expensive to run without the ball, it is at least slightly less than a low-level single.

And since the team keeps Bug on the court, it's a pity that it doesn't take Bug to do it.

After all, Chen Xiao is not sure when Bugo will be replaced by the head coach.

To be honest, facing the Celtics' first and fourth-year-olds, Bug has a very big problem on the defensive end when staying on the court.

In the second quarter, when the Celtics scored 42-43 with Antoine Walker's mid-range shot, Nets head coach Byron Scott replaced Martin.

Although Antoine Walker's mid-range shot was due to Richard Jefferson's defensive problem, there were also reasons why Boozer and Bug were not in place to assist in defense, completely emptying Antoine Walker.

Although Martin is a little short and is just as good as blocking people's cover, it is really good to assist in defense.

So Martin and Bago are the two choices of the team.

And you have to make choices at any time.

For the time being, Bugo's offensive contribution has begun to be inferior to the defensive loss points, so the Nets need to replace Bugo.

What's more, after the second quarter started over, Chen Xiao still attacked too much.

The Nets can't really catch Chen Xiao alone and try hard.

The Nets need to hit others now.

Even if the attacks of others may not be stable, they still need to stand up and share the burden for Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao is under too much pressure until now in this game.

Defensive defense must be defended by Pierce, and offense must be attacked by the strongest defense of the Celtics.

This physical energy consumption is really something that ordinary rookie players can compare with.

Although Chen Xiao did not complain about being tired, as the head coach, if he did not make any tactical changes, he would be dereliction of duty.
