On January 5th, Beijing time, the Celtics played away against the Raptors in the NBA regular season. The strength of the two teams is still very close, but the Raptors have a poor start to the new season. They were temporarily ranked 14th in the East with one win and four losses. Position, for the Raptors, they desperately need a big victory to boost morale, but this time facing a stronger Green Army, the Raptors want to win, it is still very difficult.
At the beginning of the first quarter of the game, the Raptors took the lead, with 5 consecutive three-pointers and a long two-pointer. The Raptors hit a wave of 17-5 attacks and directly stopped the Greens. The Green Army started a bit slowly. I didn't expect the opponent to start with full firepower. If it was either a three-pointer accidentally stepped on the line, or the opening three-pointer made 6 straight shots, it would be scary to think about it! The offensive end of the Green Army is slow, and the defensive end also has some slack. It seems that the Raptors attach great importance to this game, and they want to win such a strong enemy.
came back from a timeout. The Greens improved on both offensive and defensive ends. The Raptors’ three-point shooting percentage began to drop. It’s just that the Greens made too many turnovers. They made 6 turnovers in the first quarter. The Raptors only made one. It can be seen that the Raptors players are more focused on the court, 32-23. At the end of the first quarter, the Raptors temporarily lead the Greens by 9 points.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the situation of the two teams reversed and the Raptors' offensive end stalled. Instead, the Green Army players felt hot. The Green Army directly surpassed the score and quickly opened up the difference to establish a lead. The Raptors had two teams in the second and first quarters. In this quarter, they only scored 14 points in a single quarter. The drop in shooting rate is understandable, but on the defensive end they can't defend their opponents. The Greens scored 38 points in a single quarter. 61-46, the Green Army has led the Raptors by 15 points at halftime.
Let’s take a look at the halftime data of the players on both sides. The Greens have 26 points and 4 rebounds, Brown 9 points and 5 rebounds, Ojelay 6 points, Grant Williams 6 points, Pritchard 11 points. ; Raptors side Siakam 8 points, Lowry 11 points, Van Fleet 18 points and 6 rebounds, Boucher 4 points. Siakam's state is very poor, originally thought Sika is the Raptors' top scorer, at least for now, Sika's ability still has a lot of room for improvement. Tatum played efficiently on the Greens side. Brown hasn't fully exploded yet. This has been a complete reversal. The Raptors want to win, and the offensive and defensive ends must work harder in the second half to have hope.
Siakam seems to have seen the disappointment of the fans in him. As soon as the third quarter came up, he scored consecutive points, but there was no continuity in the performance of West Asia. Tatum has always been efficient output for the Greens. Brown also began to increase shots. The Greens reserve rookie Pritchard played too well, not like a rookie at all, playing too reasonable. The Raptors not only failed to narrow the points difference, but the Green Army's lead is getting bigger and bigger. 100-81, the Green Army temporarily leads the Raptors by 19 points after the third quarter.
Siakam's state is picking up, Van Fleet continues to play efficiently, but the performance of Tatum and Brown on the green side does not need to be worse than those of the two, and the gang of bench bandits in the green army are the benches of the Raptors. . In the fourth quarter, the situation remained the same. Although the Raptors counterattacked several times, they were all pressed down by the Green Army, and the two sides successively replaced the main lineup.
did not expect the Raptors third team to narrow the point difference a little bit. In the final three minutes of the game, the Raptors were only 10 points behind 111-121, with 2 minutes and 30 seconds left. The game had some suspense again. This is a bit embarrassing. The Greens replaced Tatum and other major players, Pritchard caused a three-point foul from outside, and Nas failed the challenge. The Greens can stabilize the situation. However, the Raptors' third team can put the greens The main force of the army has returned to the field, which is already very good. In the end, the Greens defeated the Raptors 126-114. In the game, Tatum had 40 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Brown had 19 points and 5 boards, Ojelay had 12 points and 8 boards, and Grant Williams had 14 points and 6 boards. , Pritchard 23 points and 8 assists; Raptors Van Fleet 36 points and 8 rebounds, Lowry 18 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Siakam 22 points and 6 rebounds, Boucher 9 points.
At the end of the game, the Raptors can only accept defeat. This is still very uncomfortable for the players. Rory did not stay on the sidelines to greet his teammates, or hug the opposing players, but returned directly to the player channel. The Raptors The record of the new season is too bad, Rory and other Raptors players are a little frustrated.
